Quick look of a few files as an example shows there is some common structure. DAT might simple be some type of container file for general data.
Folder structures are... ROM#/FOLDER#/FILE#.DAT Example. ROM/0/0.DAT
There is a lot of different files here. The way the game loads and references other files to load is not understood yet.
Many may not even have a magic number to ID the format. The game probably assumes the file it is trying to load is the correct type so it doesn't need to validate.
