Marvelous Designer white lines on edges of pattern

I have been at this for a few days but I cannot seem to fix this issue. White lines appear on all edges of my patterns. Using a dark fabric makes this very noticeable. 

I tried to fix it by:

- using a background image that kind of matches fabric color in the 2d sewing window in MD (don't know if this is even taken into account on export/import)

- Making sure my stitches were the same color as the fabric if there were any (most are not included in the export anyway)

- using my own roughness and metal upon upload (so the fabric does look good, not too shiny)

- pulling my hair out (that just hurt)

Non of this worked completely, I still am looking at ugly white edges and seams. I hope some1 can comment/help out!

I find it hard to find workarounds as we don't know what is exported and why. We don't get to see any UV and have no options for bleeding if there are any. We have just the option to push the export to Sansar format and hope for the best. Maybe there is a simple solution that I just overlooked? I love dark colors and I would hate to have to stick to white and off-white fabrics ;)

  I also would like to have some documentation on roughness and metal maps. I will be needing them some day, maybe soon. Right now I use a flat roughness and metal but for some clothing we will need a bit of detail in those.

  Those gaps are everywhere there are seems. What I think is happening is that you can export obj and picked weld ...BUT... when you export a sansar obj you don't get that option in the export menu. Sansar & MD need to fix this ASAP! We need to be able to weld on export for Sansar! https://help.sansar.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/115020427423-Marvelous-Designer-to-Sansar-gaps-in-seams-after-upload

  The problem is that we cannot change or adjust anything on export. What MD nor LL calculated in was that MD would not work out of the box in Sansar, the simulation of the cloth makes UV's and textures behave differently then anything I ever made. So just an export button and auto rigging, tho very well made and I do like that a LOT, just was not enough. We need weld, bleed, and visible UV's. Control over texture size and roughness working without jumping through hoops. I would like to be able to use textures like any other MD user would. As it is right now I loose so much time on fixing and working around problems, the time it takes to rig in Blender wouldn't be much more. But I do want cloth sim and my stuff not breaking of having to re-work/size when slider are introduced. Feels like a catch22.
