Tutorials for basic components of BG3 modding. We recommend at least glancing over all of these concepts before you start modding.

General tutorials for modding BG3, or tutorials that encompass multiple categories.

Mesh encompasses visible assets like clothing, armor, weapons, hair, heads, etc. Most of these tutorials use Blender as their program of choice.

this example does show importing a head mesh but is the steps used to import any mesh into blender.

These tutorials are not directly BG3-related, but are a great stepping stone into using Blender and working with meshes.

Visual Effects-related tutorials.
