// bgfload.h - C++14 loader for VWE .BGF (DIV-BIZ2) geometry, adapted from the
// proven standalone port loader (port/src/bgf.cpp). Resolves the model under the
// pod content tree (VIDEO\ + VIDEO\GEO\...) and its .BMF material libraries +
// texture image basenames. Produces an L4VERTEX-compatible vertex/index/batch set
// ready to be turned into an ID3DXMesh by d3d_OBJECT.
//
// Self-contained: uses only the Win32 API for directory scanning (no <filesystem>,
// so it builds under the engine's C++14 target).
