[https://youtu.be/RMPivc5qunw?si=8tQfLa6LsHS5ewpg&t=360 In this video] I show a few of these steps including alternative methods for fixing seams in blender. If blender doesn't work you likely need to edit the textures as well to help remove any left over seams.
First advise is always transfer normals from the mesh you're using textures of. So if using textures of Half Elf Masc Head E transfer normals from that same mesh.
This tutorial is from a post shared by [https://www.nexusmods.com/baldursgate3/users/43502557 HoneyWhite] in the DbtR Discord server.

Note: You can skip Noesis completely if you use the Modders Multitool. It will convert meshes you search for into .DAE and .FBX automatically.
