Prince of Persia Trilogy (PS3) .bf files (partially) not supported #4

So I felt like making this a separate issue.

I looked further into the POP Trilogy for PS3 and it looks like some of the .bf files don't work with sally_bf.bms. I am able to extract the prince.bf file from all 3 games, but the sound.bf, textures.bf, and geometry.bf files all fail to extract. I found out that the headers for these unsupported .bf files were completely different, unlike anything I've seen, so maybe they are using different formats?

well, yeah. see if you can look at these things through an hex editor.

So I went back to check on this and I found out that those .bf files are actually Yeti engine archives and can be extracted: https://zenhax.com/viewtopic.php?t=4754

So it seems this version uses a combination of two engines, weird, but not surprising for Ubisoft.
