Conker, different game, yes, I know, but the tool tells that english.bnl is a valid (CAFF) file.

conker_caff\bin\Debug>conker_caff english.bnl
Found block named .data (size 22964)
Found block named .gpu (size 105181)
Data offset = 384
Data length = 128145
Result 02C95D50
Expected 02C95D50
Valid file

Continuing here; tool sadly fails:

System.Char[] 120 ChkSum: 85724B4
NumberOf Symb:2956 FileParts:2956

then tries to read null terminated strings but there aren't any in the english.bnl file.

edit: in debug_pack.bin there's uncompressed strings:
rotateX rotateY rotateZ rotateW transX transY transZ scaleX scaleY scaleZ BASE LF_H NECK RT_H TAIL JAW JAW_TOP ...
