Hello, I would need some help to extract the files from this bigfile.

Thanks in advance.

Extremely boring format.
The only parsable data is the table with the filenames so no extraction and no script (this is for debugging):

Code:

goto 0x54
get NAMESZ long
getdstring NAME NAMESZ
for i = 0 < 12
    get DUMMY long
next i
get SIZE long
savepos OFFSET
log MEMORY_FILE OFFSET SIZE
math OFFSET   SIZE
goto OFFSET
get DUMMY long
get DUMMY long
get SIZE long
xmath FILES "SIZE / (4   4   4)"
for i = 0 < FILES
    get NAME_OFF long
    get NAME_CRC long
    get ID long
    goto NAME_OFF MEMORY_FILE
    get NAME string MEMORY_FILE
    putarray 0 i NAME
next i

Oh ok. Can I ask why though?

Because it's a messy archive, it's not even clear if the data at the beginning are offset and size references or something else.

I think some other files may be useful to understand the format more.

So upload it if you think these files are useful.

They're unfortunately too big.
