2 bytes (char) - signature // "Hx"
2 bytes (uint16) - header size   // e.g. 106 
2 bytes (uint16) - header CRC16 
4 bytes (uint32) - data size  
2 bytes (uint16) - data CRC16
2 bytes (uint16) - width
2 bytes (uint16) - height
1 byte (uint8) - mipmap level index // 0 is the largest/first level
1 byte (uint8) - number of faces
1 byte (uint8) - format number

CRC calculation

• CRC16 calculation can be described as below:
  

// header crc16
const uint32 header_crc = crc16(&pHeader->m_data_size, (uint32)(pHeader->m_header_size - ((const uint8*)&pHeader->m_data_size - (const uint8*)pHeader)));

//data crc16
const uint32 data_crc = crc16((const uint8*)pData + pHeader->m_header_size, pHeader->m_data_size - pHeader->m_header_size);

// Note: More details in "crn_decomp.h" file.
