Genesis 9 figures seam between body and legs

I just noticed this today, but most but not all of my Gen 9 figures are suddenly showing a seam in the legs as the color doesn't match in the body texture vs the legs texture. Legs seems darker for some reason.  This doesn't affect Gen 3 or Gen 8 figures, just Gen 9 including the base Gen 9.  Here's a screenshot to illustrate. Any idea what the issue is? I will say I recently compressed my textures using JPEGMini, could that have something to do with it? But if that's the case, why would it also affect characters downloaded after I ran the compression? those would have the full size textures.

That looks as if a common file has a different gamma value in the Image Editor (same menu as the layered Image editor, click the nano thumbnail next to the colour properties). I am not sure which map might be shared, however. Another possibility would be a Geometry Shell.

i checked all the values, all were the same. however, the problem seems to have gone away on its own so maybe it was some cache corruption
