The HLBS is a file based API, so a critical part of driving it is to know the file types and where they go. The following chart shows the file content, the class used in the LoadInterface<> C++ API, the GeoPrecompute target that generates it, and the file location.

Type	C++ Class	Target	Location	Notes
Mesh data	`IPrecompInputGeometry`	`Precompute`	Multiple	Mesh data is part of the standard precompute.
Baked UVs	`BakeUVStream`	`CreateBakeTargetUVs`	`baking\UVTarget_<lmName>_lmType>.dat`	If you are packing the incoming UVs, this contains the UVs you should render albedo to.
Direct Lighting	`GeoFp16Texture`	`BakeOutputDirectTextures`	`baking\<lightsFile>\Direct_<lmName>_lmType>.tex`	Additional directional output textures may be created (with `<n>` _suffix) if additional lighting normals are supplied.
Direct Directional Irradiance	`GeoFp16Texture`	`BakeOutputDirectTextures`	`baking\<lightsFile>\Direct_Dir_<lmName>_lmType>.tex`	Not present if enableDirectionalIrradiance is set to false.
Indirect Lighting	`GeoFp16Texture`	`BakeOutputIndirectTextures`	`baking\<lightsFile>\Indirect_<lmName>_lmType>.tex`	Additional directional output textures may be created (with `<n>` _suffix) if additional lighting normals are supplied.
Indirect Directional Irradiance	`GeoFp16Texture`	`BakeOutputIndirectTextures`	`baking\<lightsFile>\Indirect_Dir_<lmName>_lmType>.tex`	Not present if enableDirectionalIrradiance is set to false.
Indirect Lighting (Final Gather)	`GeoFp16Texture`	`BakeOutputFinalGatherTextures`	`baking\<lightsFile>\FinalGather_<lmName>_lmType>.tex`	Additional directional output textures may be created (with `<n>` _suffix) if additional lighting normals are supplied.
Indirect Directional Irradiance (Final Gather)	`GeoFp16Texture`	`BakeOutputFinalGatherTextures`	`baking\<lightsFile>\FinalGather_Dir_<lmName>_lmType>.tex`	Not present if enableDirectionalIrradiance is set to false.
Ambient Occlusion	`GeoFp16Texture`	`BakeOutputAOTextures`	`baking\AO_<lmName>_lmType>.tex`
Radiosity Normal Textures	`GeoFp16Texture`	`BakeOutputRadiosityNormalTextures`	`baking\RadiosityNormal_<lmName>_lmType>.tex`	Not present if enableDirectionalIrradiance is set to false.

If you need to view the contents of .tex files, you can convert them to .exr for viewing in Photoshop or Irfanview, using GeoConvert.exe /converttextoexr input.tex output.exr.
To convert all files in a folder, use a batch script as follows:

@echo off
rem for %%i in (*.tex) do echo %%i
for %%i in (*.tex) do C:\Path\To\GeoConvert.exe /converttextoexr "%%~dpni.tex" "%%~dpni.exr"
