Can't Fix Neck Seam

I'm using SG Texture Renewal with the CBBE body, and I can't seem to fix the neck seam on it, no matter what. I've tried using Tex Blend Lite and full (Following the instructions on the Tex Blend page) and re-installed Skyrim. The problem only occurs with SG Textures, I installed Fair Skin Complexion and there was no neck seam (I'm don't want to switch skins, my characters are built around SG Textures, they look weird without it) Can anyone point me to a better solution maybe? I'm willing to try anything at this point. Also, I'm wanting to use different normal maps on SG textures, though I think that'd cause even more problems.

I've used SG textures, the option file and fitness body many times without any problems.

 

By neck seam u mean different color on the face or an invisible gap between body and head?

 

If it's the face color, check the ...textures/actors/character/female/

-femalebody_1.dds and 

-femalehead.dds (also hands)

They should be the same color, just open in Paint.NET or something.

It could also be NPC replacer mod that are incorrectly installed (like in wrong order for mod and esp or a failed merge attempt)

 

If it's the invisible gap, I've experienced that when loading an old save and the npcs have incorrect weight because of new body or outfit mod, a new game fixed that.

 

If its when importing a head in racemenu u can morph (mark) the lower part of the neck before importing the head to avoid invisible neck seam.

It's the face color mismatch really, I've checked the colors and they seemed fine, I haven't changed a single file, it's all the default sg textures. I was using Windsong Skyrim Character Overhaul, but I uninstalled and nothing changed. My goal is exactly what you have, using the optional files with fitness body.

As long as the textures are in the correct folder and no NPC replacer with custom texture folders are being used there should not be a mismatch.

 

If its still a mismatch after starting a new game,  

perhaps the old NPC replacer is the cause and was not uninstalled correctly,

if not using Mod Organizer that may have happened I guess.

 

What if u try to install a new npc replace, like "Inhabitants of Skyrim - NPC Overhaul" and then reinstall SG textures?

I fixed it! I uninstalled all the character overhauls, PC and NPCS and turns out the culprit was a makeup overhaul, thank you for your help :D
