A normal map texture patch to make the neck seam almost unnoticeable when using "CBBE Muscle Solution" mod along with "Tempered Skins for Females".

If you use CBBE Muscle Solution along with Tempered Skins for Females you'll get a very noticeable neck seam that is often distracting. This is due to mismatching normal maps, as Muscle Solution mod requires CBBE head normals to not cause seams. I blended the CBBE and Tempered Skins normal maps around the neck that eliminates seam due to mismatching normal maps.
I tried using CBBE face normal maps but in my opinion they're inferior to Tempered Skins' face normal maps, as all of them excluding orc normals are identical and look quite featureless. Tempered Skins' normals on the other hand, are racially diverse and look prettier under certain lighting conditions.
There is still some neck seam on some characters that i think is due to age tintmasks or something, but this patch makes almost all neck seams almost unnoticeable.
Install this mod and overwrite both CBBE and Tempered Skins for Females in your mod manager.
