    Hi! I am trying to decompose flowmap of unity hair shader without any success, those RGB values are not making any sense. I cant sene any kind of 'direction' here or somethig lika that, it uses all 3 channels for something. Most likely it was not painted, but generated. How? Any input on this?

    compare with uv map. Likely, it's just for lighting or such. Anisotropy? Just a guess.

    Its based on UV, and its likely for Anisotropy, but then I wonder, how was it baked?
