Extracting from Data.dan - XPilot - 09-12-2012

I am trying to rip models from Pokepark Wii, but the Pokemon folder only has .dan files, which I assume are some type of archive (unlike Pokepark 2, which just has all the brres files). I know that lots of people have managed to extract models from Pokepark, but haven't found an explanation of what to do with the Data.dan file. Thanks!

Why do you need to rip the Pokémon when they're all already done? I know they don't have animations but...
Either way, you'll need to ask Random Talking Bush how he did it because he's the one who provided all the Pokémon files for the project.

Well, Katch also did it somehow (see here). And yes, I am trying to get animations.

I'd PM RTB then. He's probably the only one who knows.

Turns out RTB already told us how, here.

So after trying ntcompress on the .dac files in the Attractions folder, I get some mysterious .bin files which appear to also be archives containing multiple brres models. Any ideas?
