Remove/Reset LIE masks and layers

vex3d_22560

Is there a way to remove the LIE masks/layers applied to a surface?

SF-Design

this is what i really want to know too for scripting. I need a script that removes a layer based on name.

In my experience, removing or reordering layers doesn't really work. What you can do is create a new L.I.E. based on the current one, excluding and reordering as you please, and replace the texture channel in the shader with the new layered image.

I concur...it often doesn't work right to just reorder an existing one.

If it's to remove some of the multiple layers applied by a user, I wouldn't know. But you can still make a LIE remover. If a face has one or more LIE applied. Simply remove all LIE manually. And then File > Save As > Material Preset. Uncheck All. And save only what had LIE layers applied.

Elements of the answer through this script I guess ?
