Applying custom backdrops
Download the RAR file, CustomBackdrops.RAR, and extract it to Baldurs Gate 3\Data\Mods. Rename the file of your choosing to AMX_CC_Backdrop.DDS, or create your own Backdrop by using any of the files provided as a template. This file will then override the light blue AMX_CC_Backdrop.DDS image contained within the PAK file.
Changing Tav's Equipment
To change the character creator equipment, you need a customizable Equipment.txt. You can then change the default equipment of any of the classes available to Tav. If you only use the Equipment.txt for this, then delete it after you are done with this mod. Do not ever leave behind any loose files from mods you do not currently use.
Making Icons
With this mod, it is easy to make the 380x380 tooltip icons and the 64x64 inventory icons for new armor mods. Invisible Head & Body recommended for making headwear, footwear and glove slot item icons.
Check out this short overview on the different methods you can use when making armor icons.
Resolution (Not currently supported)
To increase, or decrease, the resolution of the backdrop image, simply resize the AMX_CC_Backdrop.jpg to your desired size. Do not change its aspect ratio.
The default resolution of AMX_CC_Backdrop.jpg is 4096x2048, and the default resolution for the visible slot for the backdrop image is 2980x1713.
