Where are there so many nulls at the top of textures.big? There's just tons of them. The wiki says there should be 16 bytes before the number of banks, and that number is among a gigantic blob of nulls, so I don't know what I'm supposed to be looking for.

This hardly belongs under "Advanced Modding".
Try asking within the "Discussion Area" forum next time, please.
To address your confusion, there aren't 16 bytes before the number of banks.
There are 16 bytes that make up the main header from the beginning of the .BIG file.
Most (if not all) .BIG files have zero-data after the header to 800h, where the payload begins.
The 'number of banks' value for each .BIG file is located at the first dword (4-byte integer) pointed to by "Bank address" value (the third dword value in the header).
That is, the bank address specifies the offset of the beginning of the bank index, relative to the beginning of the file.
Perhaps someone can correct me if I'm mistaken.
