Dasan 8 - massive headseam
![daveso](https://www.daz3d.com/forums/uploads/userpics/381/nYKOPIUMKPC7Y.jpg)
this is the second character in a row I've purchased with obvious head seam. Not sure how in 100 years this could get through QC ...
I'll file a report but wow, its bad.

Hmm I did a test run to see because I didn't remember seeing a seam on him. I did a couple of different light sets and I did not see a seam? Possible to give settings so we can see if someone can replicate it?
what settings do you need?
I have a specualr light and one spotlight pointing directly at the head ... straight to the side .. I removed the specular and its still there. added a new camera ..and still there. strange. Was there an update that i didn;t get? Just set the rendering to default ... wow..really bad. I'm going to start over with blank ... default rendering ...
Actually after seeing it accross the top of the head in daveso's image, I think I can very faintly see the same seam in your image. Or am I trying too hard and imagining it?
no better ... what am i doing wrong?
Yeah, not seeing it either here. daveso, is this a fresh load of the character or did you load any other skins?
i just did another fresh load .. same deal... even worse. Just used sun-sky .. no dome .. same. tried to load the full texture... same seam. very frustrating.
it looks like shadows more than seam..but if i turn the figure, its still there same thing.

Hmm something definately is not working right for you. Look at the back of his head it looks translucent! And if you look at mine and yours mine has more detail, look at the eyes my crows feet are much more visible.
@Charlie_Judge there maybe is a slight seam but nothing like what daveso is getting. I think it happens because of slightly different settings from the face and torso areas.
Edit: I did a sun-sky side view all default settings and nothing like what your getting. Is your log file showing any errors? Maybe try to reinstall Dasan?
Looking at your latest images, there is something funky going on for sure with your setup daveso because I have never seen that kind of funky shadowing before
Look at your texture should be Dasan8TorsoD_1002.jpg its not lining up like it should.
yes, it is that.
AHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
User ERROR ... the icon had that little circle deal...it needed to be fully installed ... holy cow ... why does it do that? doesn;t DIM install the stuff?
Sorry for so much confusion ... I knnow I was confused ...
LOL, well at least you found the solution.
Loved how you freaked out at first
You figured it out before I saw the tthread :). From the looks of things it was clear a texture was missing. That is not a seam :D, that is a canyon.
Glad you figured it out! Yes DIM should be installing everything, I do not install anything through Connect.
That's what happens when a normal map isn't applying correctly. I have some characters that started doing that after an update. The only fix was to remove the normal maps altogether.
