If the neck seam is present in an otherwise vanilla game then the problem is with the default skintone file.Īnd third, if the skintone appears normal in an otherwise vanilla game and you have deleted your cache files, it is time to start hunting for the content that is causing the neck seam or line to appear. You would then create a Mods/Packages folder again, put in the skintone and take a look at some sims. You can easily to this by renaming the main The Sims 3 folder in Documents to “The Sims 3 old”, firing up the game and letting it generate a new one or using the Any Game Starter. Second, test your game without custom content, with only the default skintone in the Mods/Packages folder. These will regenerate next time you fire up the game and are safe to delete. Deleting cache files will clear the info held for EA worlds, while world caches contains info about custom and store worlds. If you do not, the game keeps information about your old defaults and you won’t see a complete switch to the new default.

What do you mean by a “weird break”? Is there a seam in the neck area so the head and body textures do not match or is there a visible hole in your sim’s neck so that the head appears to be floating above the body?
