That's the data file but you should have also the index file having an extension like bhd.

Probably this script may work:

If not, then upload the bhd file.

Note: please use ever the filecutter script, downloading 4gb of useless data file is a annoying.

Script 0.2:

After the extraction you will notice a lot of BND files, it's enough to run the same script on them to extract their content.

I Really appreciate your Help. I'm running into an error when I'm extracting the smaller BND files. Error Mesg " 141 log NAME OFFSET SIZE 1"

These few archives contain offsets outside the archive, for example 0x5c8 in a bnd of 0x590.
I have updated the script with some instructions to check if OFFSET SIZE <= BND_SIZE

Just a Followup. Your new script works great. I thank you for your help. I found another program that works great also for reading and extracting *.bnd files. DSExplorer - Nyxojaele. I found the tool on XeNTax, I thought I would share.

There was a problem with the GameData.bdt but I've applied some fix for it. Now I have this error with the new bdt:



I still have 600 GB free space left on my hard drive

Here's the sample. I've included both old & new bdt:
