Follower UNP[B] Neck Seam

[BSnake]

Hello. I'm working on a custom follower and I've switched from the usual CBBEv3 to UNPB (no BBP). All the UNP body/face texture combinations I've tried result in neck seams, though. The seams are noticeable on both UNP and UNPB bodies, with or without Fair Skin Complexion. I'm not referring to the neck gap that's associated with NPC weight, btw.

 

Here's an example using UNPB meshes + Oriental Beauty Female body/face textures + OBF Neck Patch for UNP. According to dimon99, the neck seam should be invisible or nearly so:

 

 

 

I've made sure to install the body/face mods in the correct order. For UNPB + Fair Skin Complexion, this would be UNP > UNPB (no BBP) > Face mod > FSC for UNP > FSC Face patch. I've tried numerous face textures that are UNP-compatible, including Coverwomen, Oriental Beauty Female, All in One Face, and those listed on the Fair Skin Complexion page.

 

To make sure it wasn't just Fair Skin Complexion being incompatible, I've tried installing just the default UNP body and a UNP-compatible face mod. This still results in neck seams.

 

To make sure I wasn't messing up TextureSet paths in the Creation Kit, I've tried applying my usual CBBEv3 body to the follower. As expected, it looks perfectly fine in the CK and there are no neck seams. Therefore, I think all of these UNP face textures are simply not as compatible with the UNP body as they're supposed to be.

 

My question is: Which UNP face texture ensures no neck seam on the UNPB Fair Skin Complexion body? I'll have to resort to the Perfect Neck Seam kit soon, but I'm feeling a bit lazy tonight after running into multiple issues with DVD burning earlier today.

This is why I use CBBE instead of UNP.I really hate UNP's neck seams

I may be wrong, but I think one of the more recent UNPB mesh builds is the source of the problem. I updated my meshes a while ago and had seams with textures that were not a problem before. So I backed up a stage and was seam free.

Are you using the 2.2b version? With what face mod?
