I am developing a plugin to import glTF for 3dsMax.  
I’m trying to convert KTX2 to PNG using PVRTexLib, So I implemented the code:

> **[Reading and Transcoding an Image](https://docs.imgtec.com/tools-manuals/pvrtextool/topics/library/reading-decompressing.html)**
>
> In this example, an existing file is read from disk and then transcoded to RGBA8888. The resulting texture object can then be used for later processing. #include "PVRTexLib.hpp" using namespace ...

But it does not seem to load the KTX2 image.(m\_hTexture=0)  
I use Khronos glTF sample data and not a special image, but do I need to do any initialization before loading?
