Genesis 8 missing morphs?

I'm wondering if it's just been because I haven't been working with G8F in awhile, and I'm expecting it to work like one of the other figures maybe. I know somehow you used to be able to change the look of the face (granted I always used Poser before) - not the movements, but morphs I guess you would say. Specifically I was trying to change the shape of her lips. Is there not settings for these kind of things with this figure or is something missing? Maybe it's different now.

Do you have any of the morph packs? As with most Daz figures, the base includes little beyond the expression controls (the original Genesis was an exception as it was released with the beta DS 4 before any commercial add-ons, including the head/body morph sets, were made available).

Yes, the head/boy morphs are installed. I know some of the old options were gone, but something like lip shape I am surprised wouldn’t be. Only like mouth opening and expressions, etc. are there.

Those would be in the Posing pane, or under Pose Controls in the parameters pane, and are not I suspect from the morph sets. It does sound as if there may be an installation issue.

Ok, so I reinstalled the g8f head morphs and also updated the starter essentials because I needed too, and I'm still not finding what I'm looking for. I looked on the morph list on the product page, and it does have these: lips heart, lip upper curves, etc.

So under the panels on the right under parameters, posing, and shaping, none come up with that. Am I looking in the right place? I've tried selecting the whole body and just the head. Things like face young are also missing.

I double checked and both the starter essentials and the morphs are installed in the same folder (PP2018). This is not however the folder DS is installed in, but that shouldn't matter. Things like lips part, etc. those are there just not the ones that seem to change the shapes which is what I am after.

Ok...I'll leave my posts incase someone else does stupidly what I did. All this time I couldn't figure out why, and then it suddenly hit me: the only things I have installed in that runtime are the main figure stuff. Anyway, I'm not sure if the actual figures showed up because DS can find them, but I never added that main content directory only genesis 8, etc which has the clothes and everything else. Apparently I was only getting the base dials! Anyway, sorry for the waste, but thanks for the help.
