Removing a Texture

Ok when u place a skin on, the general texture stays the same. But i want to remove it. For example, in headlong, the boxes have many groves and bumps, which makes it hard to view the skin. I want to take the texture off, so how do i do that

thats called a bumpmap, and it would require nulling it out to lose it, im not sure how one would do this, being as i have never done it

Almost every texture has a bump map version along with it. Just edit the bump map one too.

can you edit bumps then reinject em?

anyway if you go to dothalo and find the box look in the dependencies box and swap it with null

Null it out at the shader.

nulling it out may not be the best idea, the bump is a primarily purple or green color, make the entire bump_map that green(or purple) color. Coloring It white would be bad since it would give the enitre object a different depth (white is part of a bump). Not sure what nulling it out would do but making it all that green(or purple) is the best bet.

edit* just realized the bumpmaps arnt editable in photoshop (yea im a dumbass)
