Description

A cube map-style image file defined from six images (one for each face of the cube).  The images are usually required to all be the same size.  The cube is axis-aligned and the images are specified by the coordinate axis and direction that passes through the middle of the corresponding cube face.  Typically an application will process the six images into a single image a load time, using the layout shown below.  However applications are allowed to use the six images directly if they know how to do so.
