I can provide all the extracted files, or explain what I did (the format of the compressed textures is basically RLE encoding plus some extra code to handle transparency), or both :).

There are a few bytes I haven't been able to decypher yet, but they are probably not needed to generate the images (I can't see any image "wrong").
A couple years later (though feels like longer due to COVID) I come back to this thread and somebody had basically finished this. RLE makes sense since Animation Magic uses it for basically everything! And... looking back, that was missing from the notes I made long ago... actually looking back on my old notes they were a real mess! "multi-dimensional"? Sounds like sci-fi talk.

But getting back to it, if you still have anything lying around for this it'd be very appreciated.
