maketx -d half doesnt work

Using Maya2017 mMtoA 2.02.2 arnold5.0.1.4 core

im trying to create a 16 bit half float tx file with maketx

but Im seeing no difference in the resulting file between -d float and -d half

Im using oiiotoo.exe and it reports bitsPersample is 32 for both half and float tx files

the file size is also almost identical

my commandline is:

maketx --oiio -threads 4 --compression piz -d half input.exr -o output_half.tx

so Im concluding that -d half is just creating 32 bit floats

has anyone else noticed this?

The uint8 and uint16 options work just fine.

it turns out if you want to create half float .tx files from exr files you have to include

--format exr -d half
