Messing with and editing HD normals. Trying to balance the area size difference betwix body and head, but the body normals end up huge.

      That choker sort of blocks the neck area, so it could be there, but it isn't viewable as it would block the seam.

      Otherwise you would probably use photoshop or Texblend to destroy neck seams.

      I don't personally have a 'gap', just a seam line which isn't too bad TBH (more of an overlap really). To fix neck gaps, you need to get matching meshes and textures. You've probably updated the body or head at some point but not the other corresponding mesh parts. For this, I'm using CHSBHC skeletons, CBBEv3 Manga version updated meshes (larger bust/nipples), with Mature Textures from Maevan2 and a mish-mash of normals and shine maps. Oh, I'm also using Enhanced Character Edit so dunno if that helps any.

      Here's without the choker: http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/Images/313309/?

      The useful seam hiding choker is from 'Ashara Dimonized Romantic Dress and Jewellery", works for CBBE also.

      RE: bust. Hehe, yea, I've just recently gone back to CBBE after a year or so on UNP. Indeed, busts are much weightier on CBBE BBP and have more 'hang'.

      Edit: I'll just add, normals maps can make a big difference in seams. If you have a HD face normals map, and a low quality body map, then the difference in skin surface is very noticeable. For reference, normals are the files labelled with 'msn', such as 'femalebody_msn.dds', and act like what we used to call 'bump maps' as far as I can tell.

      With an UNPB Body and Using RaceMenu you can get very good busts to. Only Problem is the Gap.

      PS. Ashara Jewelery solved the problem. Thanks again

      I use ECE, which can increase busts but can interfere with BPP armours/clothing. I had a fiddle with the old Calientes Body Slide, only just noticing now that you can generate a BBP mesh (d'oh). The thing I liked with the Body Slide is the 'gravity' slider; gives a more natural hang and weight I think, though some might say 'saggy', hehe.
