+== Editing the CLEA/HMVY ==
+To edit CLEA/HMVY textures, it is best to break them down to their RGBA channels and edit each channel individually.
+<br>For example in GIMP to separate them into their channels you would do this:
+# Open the texture in GIMP
+# Go to Colors > Components > Decompose > Switch Color Model to RGBA
+# Once the Color Model is selected press OK.
+# This will open another window/page with each channel as layers. You can now edit each channel separately using the guide below to know what each channel does.
+# When you are finished making your edits go to; Colors > Components > Compose > Switch Color Model to RGBA.
+# Once the Color Model is selected, press OK.
+# It will now open another window/page with the texture repacked with its channels together. You can now export your texture. When exporting your texture make sure the extension is .DDS not .dds, and the compression is either BC3/DXT5 or BC1/DXT1, as below.
 == CLEA ==
-DDS Format: DXT5
+DDS Format: BC3/DXT5 Linear
-* Red Channel - Cavities
+* Red Channel - Cavities/Pores
 * Green Channel - Eyebrows
 * Blue Channel - Lips
 * Alpha Channel - Ambient Occlusion
 == HMVY ==
-DDS Format: DXT5
+DDS Format: BC3/DXT5 Linear
+<br>
+Skin tinting
 * Red Channel - Hemoglobin
 * Green Channel - Melanin (freckles)
 * Blue Channel - Veins
 * Alpha Channel - Yellowing
 == NORMAL ==
-DDS Format: DXT5
+DDS Format: BC3/DXT5 Linear
+<br>
 Wrinkles, scars, any indents in the skin
+To convert a "regular" normal map to BG3, put the Red channel into Alpha channel and set Red channel to black
 == MSK ==
-DDS Format: DXT1
+DDS Format: BC1/DXT1 Linear
 * Red Channel - Non-skin (horns, nail colour)
 * Green Channel - Pigmentation (lighter = less, also vitiligo)
 * Blue Channel - Tear/Lip Lines
+== Gallery ==

+== Tattoo and Makeup Atlases ==
+DDS Format: BC1/DXT1 Linear
+=== Tattoos ===
+* Red, Green, and Blue are all different tattoo designs. Can design on any.
+=== Makeup ===
+* Red Channel - Makeup options
+* Green Channel - Gith spots
+* Blue/Alpha - Not used
+== Dragonborn ==
+== CTLO ==
+'''CTLO - Cavity.Thickness.Lips.Occlusion'''
+DDS Format: BC3/DXT5 Linear
+* Red Channel - Cavity
+* Green Channel - Thickness
+* Blue Channel - Lips
+* Alpha Channel - Ambient Occlusion
+Thickness - it's inverted compared to one from Marmoset and much lighter
+AO - it's much whiter then one you will bake in Marmoset or Substance, so adjust them if you want to mix with yours
+== HMVY ==
+'''HMVY - Hemoglobin.Melanin.Vein.Yellowing'''
+DDS Format: BC3/DXT5 Linear
+* Red Channel - Hemoglobin
+* Green Channel - Melanin (pigment amount)
+* Blue Channel - Veins
+* Alpha Channel - Yellowing
+[[File:DGB HMVY1.png|frameless|445x445px]]
+== NORMAL ==
+DDS Format: BC3/DXT5 Linear
+To convert a "regular" normal map to BG3, put the Red channel into Alpha channel and set Red channel to black
+== MSK ==
+DDS Format: BC1/DXT1 Linear
+* Red Channel - Non-skin (horns, scales, any keratin parts)
+* Green Channel - Convexity map
+* Blue Channel - Emty black
+This is just to show how exactly MSK channels works:
+[[File:DGB_MSK_1.png|alt=DGB MSK Channels|frameless]][[File:DGB_MSK_2.png|frameless]]
++ Small test to make more obvious how works R channel
+== DMSK ==
+sRGB - every channel is decorative mask (trough them you make guilded mask, add details)
+In the 2nd picture you could see DMSK blue channel as yellow guilding:
+[[File:DGB DMSK RGB1.png|frameless|358x358px]][[File:DGB DMSK B examle.png|frameless|358x358px]]
+This document could also give you better understanding [https://docs.google.com/document/d/1nE4QjTKedF0KkKwOsVVAI87GgXxdQiJSsLYOnWO5YdA/edit#heading=h.zb542upz0efo '''Dragonborn Skin Colour References'''] by Padme4000
+== Draconic Bloodline DMSK ==
+sRGB - every channel is draconic bloodline decorative mask - they will replace DMSK if gamer choose the DB subclass, keep it in mind
+[[File:DGB Draconic Bloodline DMSK1.png|frameless|358x358px]]
+You could check every separate channel in files here [https://www.nexusmods.com/baldursgate3/mods/11111 Dragonborn head Substance Painter Assets] all existing DGB head textures unpacked by channels in separate folders
+Also you could see every DGB head material including NPC's with this mod [https://www.nexusmods.com/baldursgate3/mods/11011 Dragonborn head material checker - Modder's Tool].{{Modding navbox}}
