I've attached the BigTIFF executor file here. You just need to open your project (pto) file in PTBatchGUI, select it with in the application's main window, and click the "Change user-defined sequence..." button in the right sidebar. This will open a popup with 3 options and it's the "External" option you want to activate. This then allows you to select the executor file from your storage location. You can turn on log files in the same sidebar to confirm what works and run the batch. Et voila! Your BigTIFF output file. My own quick experiment and log file shows that exiftool is incapable of adding exif data to BigTIFF files; but, I do get a BigTIFF file! MYYV; but, good luck.
