Removing textures named "blabla_n"

[doitlikeme]

Ya know the dds files with the underscore followed by an n? How do I remove them from a model?

You can't. These are normal files (a texture that gives a model an extra 3D look when seen from an angle) that are automatically loaded into the game when the model is present.

 

However, you can overwrite them with blank _n files.

Without normal map, you will see 'invisible blahblah' in game. It happened to me when I try to assign someone's clothes retexture on clothes mesh. I forgot to add normal map, and when my character put it on, she became literally floating head and hands.
