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.
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: BC3/DXT5 Linear
- Red Channel - Cavities/Pores
- Green Channel - Eyebrows
- Blue Channel - Lips
- Alpha Channel - Ambient Occlusion
HMVY
DDS Format: BC3/DXT5 Linear
Skin tinting
- Red Channel - Hemoglobin
- Green Channel - Melanin (freckles)
- Blue Channel - Veins
- Alpha Channel - Yellowing
NORMAL
DDS Format: BC3/DXT5 Linear
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: BC1/DXT1 Linear
- Red Channel - Non-skin (horns, nail colour)
- Green Channel - Pigmentation (lighter = less, also vitiligo)
- Blue Channel - Tear/Lip Lines

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
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 red channel works
DMSK
sRGB - every channel is decorative mask (trough them you make guilded mask, add details)
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
You could check every separate channel in files here Dragonborn head Substance Painter Assets all existing DGB head textures unacked by channels in separate folders
