I tried to extract GDI dump file of below link which has Multi data track without CDDA
https://archive.org/download/RedumpSega ... pan%29.zip
First I tried to open gdi extension file with GD-ROM explorer 1.6.3, But it display error message of Invalid track size.
So I made below cue sheet file and rename each bin file to correct filename in the cue sheet, then save it with .cue extension and tried to mount it with Deamon tools.
But deamon tools failed to recognize cue sheet file..
FILE "track03.bin" BINARY
TRACK 03 MODE1/2352
PREGAP 10:00:00
INDEX 01 00:00:00
POSTGAP 00:02:00
FILE "track04.raw" BINARY
TRACK 04 AUDIO
INDEX 01 00:00:00
POSTGAP 00:02:00
FILE "track05.bin" BINARY
TRACK 05 MODE1/2352
INDEX 01 00:00:00
Is there any way to extract GDI dump file which has Multi data track without CDDA and not able to open it with GD-ROM explorer?

track 3 bin has the game data.
you should be able to open track 3 with gdi explorer by japanesecake.
in some cases i have been able to extract data from track3 only, other times a few files dont get extracted.
i recall in one case the 1st_read was only thing that would not extract from track3.
who knows lol
if you have no luck maybe try finding another gdi of the game.
some1 might chime in with more info.

try familyguy&sizious gditools
https://sourceforge.net/projects/dcisotools/
i think there are a few other apps that you could try extracting .gdi (besides gdiexplorer and gditools.)
there is also a script to use but i dont have it anymore. (i think this was fg's script b4 he made gditools)
i usually use japanesecake's app. (gdi explorer)
good luck.
there are many ppl here with way more knowledge than me..
some1 can help ya.

I also tried gditools.py GUI program but it cannot open gdi file...It display The specified GDI image doesn't exit. and It(Fushigi no Dungeon - Fuurai no Shiren Gaiden - Onna Kenshi Asuka Kenzan! (Japan) is included in REDUMP release and It seems that currently it is impossible to find out another gdi dump of this game(Fushigi no Dungeon - Fuurai no Shiren Gaiden)

what i learned...
track 3 is the filesystem.
track 5 is game data.
megavolt made a version of Fushigi no Dungeon.
and Gdi2Data is the name of fg's batch script.
