General info:
 - Everything is stored in an octree.

Roles of resources:
 - PlanetoidMetadata points to first BulkMetaData.
 - BulkMetaData points to other BulkMetaData and to NodeData.
 - NodeData contains actual meshes and textures.

Versioning:
 - BulkMetaData and NodeData are versioned using epoch numbers.
 - PlanetoidMetadata provides epoch of first BulkMetaData.
 - BulkMetaData provides epochs of underlying resources.
 - Current version of a resource can be determined recursively.
 
NodeData:
 - Vertex Buffer:
    - 8 bytes per point: X,Y,Z,W,U,U,V,V
    - XYZ: position, W: octant mask, UV: texture coordinates
 - Texture:
    - Format 1: JPEG
    - Format 6: S3 DXT1 RGB
