Have you already tried the existent script for this game?
http://aluigi.org/bms/sherlock_holmes_jack_ripper.bms

If it doesn't work upload en.xml too.
Probably it's better if you upload it anyway because some files are compressed and the script doesn't decompress them.

I have the GOG Games version and it uses PAK files. Can't seem to find en.xml file on that version and the xbox 360 version uses pakk file format. The file structure seems different when i use the bms script you provided which produces an error because it can't find sounds.xml unless I'm missing something here.

Dump a directory tree of all the files in the game folder.

Two seperate links that contain both the entire xbox 360 and pc versions of the games in game files.

Finally some time to check this stuff.
Script 0.2: D
http://aluigi.org/bms/sherlock_holmes_jack_ripper.bms

P.S.: apparently it fails only with one file of game.pakx but I have no way to know for sure if a file is compressed or not.

Thanks! That script worked wonders. I did find a audio music file that was a bit jumpy though once extracted. Don't know if it's just buggy or this script caused a corruption within it. This script seems to work with the xbox 360 version as well. I know there are some pre-rendered video files as well but couldn't find them and the voices folder seemed empty.

EDIT: This is the music file that doesn't seem to extract well. It's the same on PC/Xbox 360, I checked.
