Color Discrepancy

[carrieanne755]

The color between my head and body doesn't match. I have Maitreya Body. LAQ head. I bought everything the creators told me to get and i'm still struggling. Can anyone walk me through it?

There might be three reasons why it doesn't match:

1) They didn't match from the start. In that case you're out of luck.
2) Your windlight is messing with the seam between head and body. Try switching to a different windlight and it might be fixed.
3) Some older heads and bodies require you to use the 'fade' on the neck to hide the otherwise visible seams. Try enabling it.

Don't either of the head or body skins - I assume skins - have a color-picker HUD for changing "shades"? 

Or did you buy individual, separate one-color / no option, body / head / skins (whichever)?

So I was told from the stores i was purchasing from I was using BoM and Appliers and need to pick one. I was frustrated last night so I will try to elaborate. 

I bought the Maitreya Body from their store.

I bought the LAQ head. Then went back to LAQ and bought body skin and face skin. I am supposed to have all the stuff to fix the problem. I think it's user error...lol. 

Could you explain how to change the windlight? Thank you both for helping! I will figure this so help me god.

Could  you post a screenshot of the neck area, so we can see where the head and body skin connect? It's usually pretty easy to tell if it's a skin or a lighting problem.

Make sure it's set to public, alternatively you can just drag the photo from your PC to the post editor to upload it here directly. 🙂

Sorry that's not it.

Two things...Make sure the Materials is off on both the head and body.  There are sliders on Maitreya on the HUD for this.  I'm sure the head has some also.

Put the body skin on first and them the head skin.  Some head skins include a fade that goes down the neck for people who use other body skins.  If you put the head skin on first, it often leaves a line where the fade ends and the body skin starts.   So always...body skin then head skin.
