Need help extracting from .dat/.sbsar file

[Taruncreation]

Hi everyone,

I have been trying to get textures from an old android game. Initially after extracting the package, I stumble upon the .dat file in the materials folder and opening them in UABE shows there are bunch of .sbsar file but I am unable to extract these from the .dat file...could not find a way to export these. Looking a bit about .sbsar file this could be import/export from Adobe Substance 3D Designer but have not been able to get the .sbsar file out of these .dat files specially the SubstanceArchive type data which I believe might have some meaningful textures.

Will really appreciate any help or info on this.

 

Have attached the original .dat file for reference as well.

This is from Re-Volt 3 android game.

Using AssetRipper, I got these three .json files out of the .dat file and viewing the json in Notepad gives me this...

 

Would it be possible that the JSON is storing a valid texture and we need to decode it? I will try to dig a bit more into it, Have attached the JSON file as well for reference.

 

EDIT: Now looking to get some useful colored/diffuse texture out of these. will attach these too for reference.
