While looking for various hair, I ran across this product: https://www.daz3d.com/dforce-beachcomber-hair-for-genesis-8-and-genesis-81
I tried my best to look for that lovely character in the main picture, and I scowered all through Genesis 8 male characters yet couldn't seem to find him! Anyone have an idea who he is?

Well, I seem to have answered my own question! He's an 8.1 character: https://www.daz3d.com/torment-8-1
Which leads me to another question. I really don't have anything for Genesis 8.1.... only 8. Is there a way to use this character on Gen8? Or can I se Gen8 clothes and stuff on 8.1?
Yea I have Studio 4.21 :D So that means clothing and hair I have for G8M will work on G8.1? What about Shapes?
G8.1 is basically G8 with additional UVs, one of the surfaces split into two, and a new expression system.
So yes, clothes, skins, shapes, hair ... for G8M will work on G8.1M. All your G8M dials should be there automatically when you load G8.1, as long as you're using at least DS4.15 (that's when the code to do that was added).
Expressions using the standard expression dials in G8 will not work by default as those were disabled in 8.1 to use the new system, but there's a workaround to get them to work.
Geoshells may not work directly due to the "torso" surface being split into "head" and "body", but that's quite easy to fix (apply geoshell to a G8 figure, copy/paste material settings from G8M shell torso to G8.1 shell head and body, and voilà you can remove the G8).
From my limited experience, what doesn't work with 8.1 are expressions and geoshells. The former requires removing some files (but even doing that, some expressions doesn't seem to work on G8.1), the latter requires more work because a 8.1 geoshell is slightly different than the one used by 8.0.
Hairs will works without a fuss from what I remember, clothing too, except for the ones using a geoshell which will requires work on your part (you will find information on the subject reading @crosswind's message in that thread I created about it some time ago).
Shapes should work too, at least you should be able to use G8.0 body / head morphs on a G8.1 figure, but it doesn't work the other way around.
Thank you all for your answers! They're appreciated. :D

Hello all. Reviving this thread because I have another, "Who is this?!" question.
https://www.daz3d.com/hs-daxar-firestorm-hair-for-genesis-9-8-and-81-male
Specifically the male in the large image here, with the blonde hair. He's *amazing*!
The artist who made this promo uses their own custom characters, which are not available for sale.
Oh, good to know... also I LOVE the rat in your icon image. Is that a render? I have been looking for a good rat (like, a realistic looking one that actually looks like a rat!) for ages!!
Yes, it's from a render I made a couple of years ago. The mouse is Mouse by AM.
