Description

I was trying to extract faces from a cubemap that I converted from a HDRI, and it crashes when I try and extract it. The VTF is BC6H formatted, I tried doing this with BC7 on the same image and it didn't crash.

BC6H VTF and EXR are included in this zip:
skybox.zip

OS: Windows 11

Research direction

Start by reproducing the CLI extraction crash with the attached skybox.zip on Windows 11, using the included BC6H VTF and EXR. Compare the result with extraction from the BC7 version of the same image; done means BC6H cubemap faces extract without crashing.
