Gen8 AE Controls? Do they exist?

I don't see anything but a Realism HD dial with that element selected. I don't have a Gen8 Male Pro Bundle yet so I don't know the set up with his "stuff".

    The male elements have pretty much the same setup as previous generations. Basic length/width controls, simple rigging for position, and the ability to turn the foreskin on and off. If you want anything more, you'll have to go third-party.

    But the Female elements have nothing but a Realism HD Dial? That was my question.

    That's right. There are, I believe, add-on morph sets in other stores - both for shaping and for action, so to speak.

    Seems odd that Gen3 came with them as does G8 Male but you need to knock around dark corners for the G8 Female ones. I know I didn't buy add on morphs for that from a "dark alley" because I wouldn't have spent money on it. The Patriarchy rears it's ugly head again!

    WOMENS ANATOMICAL ELEMENTS MATTER!! WOMENS ANATOMICAL ELEMENTS MATTER!! (c'mon everyone, join in!) WOMENS ANATOMICAL ELEMENTS MATTER!! WOMENS ANATOMICAL ELEMENTS MATTER!!

    Wow, that really is a mouthfull to type. But you know what I mean. It was part of the package in previous generations and still is for the G8 Male. How about some parity?

    I'm really not trying to make this about gender politics because it's CG for crying out loud. I'm just saying that's an odd piece of fat to decide to trim.

    The attached picture is the list of morphs I was pretty sure came with AE. Maybe that will help someone point me in the right direction.

    And I realize there are plenty of puns to be made here and none of them are intended.

    I'm also starting to fear that I did purchase something that came with these morphs and I just thought they were a Daz thing. In which case, I'm a lunatic ranting on a message board about something dumb that's my fault. Which wouldn't be a first for me here.

    You did, those are SledgeHammer morphs.

    EDIT: Since the gens did not change at all from G3 to G8, you can actually use those same morphs by copying them over and editing paths to reference G8.

    Well thank you very much Agent Unawares...this has been illuminating and embarassing at the same time. On a few levels. But since I'm already in deep...how would someone copy over/edit paths to reference G8? I'm not asking for me, it's for a friend.

    This is for the male gens, but female are the same, just with the obvious changes.

    Copy your Morphs folder from "data/DAZ 3D/Genesis 3/Male Genitalia" into "data/DAZ 3D/Genesis 8/Male Genitalia". Then do find/replace in the copied morphs to replace "/data/Daz%203D/Genesis%203/Male%20Genitalia" with "/data/Daz%203D/Genesis%208/Male%20Genitalia" and "G3MGenitalia.dsf" with "G8MGenitalia.dsf". Female would be "/data/Daz%203D/Genesis%203/Female%20Genitalia" to "/data/Daz%203D/Genesis%208/Female%20Genitalia" "Genesis3FemaleGenitalia.dsf" with "Genesis8FemaleGenitalia.dsf". You can do this with Notepad++ to get the whole folder at once.
