would also like to suggest photopea, it's basically photoshop for web browsers
Photopea Online Photo Editor lets you edit photos, apply effects, filters, add text, crop or resize pictures. Do Online Photo Editing in your browser for free!
took the time to compile them. works with MGS1 FACE.DAT and STAGE.DAT (although i don't understand the file structure output by the latter). did not test the other tools but gcx-decompile just gives a blank .txt
additionally, here's a tool for DEMO.DAT and VOX.DAT

this tool works for extracting ZMOVIE.STR

Does anyone have a compiled dat-extract_enc from there?

Don't use photoshop when exporting textures that have transparency / alpha layers - use gimp instead (it can also open PSD's, that said it doesn't respect photoshop's layer blending color overlay options so be sure to make things the actual color you want.)
