Body/Face Texture Config Issues

[Akhenrah]

I'm fairly new to the mod scene and I've been playing around with armor, weapons, face, body and hair textures. I'm noticing now that some NPCs have very obvious neck seams, or what look like complete voids between their neck and collars. I can overcome this with using the 'setnpcweight' console command, but that doesn't appear to save when I save my game.

 

Should I revert back to vanilla for these textures, or is there another way around this?

 

I've tried posting comments to a couple of the mods I'm using, but a lot of them seem to have gone unsupported, or just forgotten by the authors..

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
