The scenario
A game engine needs to load image textures and convert color data from sRGB to linear space before GPU upload to ensure correct lighting calculations.
What is in this drawing
Read the decisions behind it.
01
Check texture cache to avoid duplicate loads
02
Convert sRGB to linear color space only for sRGB sources
03
Fallback to placeholder texture on GPU upload failure
Use when designing or documenting a texture loading pipeline with color space linearization and cache/error handling.
