how many bones are there, actually, in a genesis 8 figure?
i could try to count them, but i'm bad at counting, the scene tab expand-all option is intimidating, and i often lose track or make mistakes when i'm doing mathematical things.
i do have a really good reason for asking. i promise. :)

I doubt it has the newly (re)discovered Fabella https://www.bbc.com/news/health-47950258
Well, I counted and got it to 170 (in G8F).
No bones at all. Victoria is made of cartilage like a shark. :)
I counted twice, and can confirm felis' 170, nearly half of which were in the head.
thank you very much for the info, felis and SixDs.

VRChat confirms, 170 bones in G8M
anyone know of the bone count in the other versions of Genesis (m)?
VRChat says 74 in Genesis(1).
wow. here I am back in 2025 trying to find bone counts... which appear to contradict what I posted back in 2022.
Unity seriously is reporting 792 for a Gen8male. wtf.
Genesis3male has 219 according to Unity.
Is it JUST a G8M? It might also be counting bones in clothing, hair etc.
I don't know how Unity counts a figure's bones but most likely there're conformers under your G8M figure there ~
Well, you always can find bone counts of a vanilla Genesis figure in DS > Scene : Info pane.(ss1) or in FBX export dialogue when export figures with DazToUnity bridge if you use it... by ticking Show FBX Dialog...(ss2)
G8.xF/G8.xM > 170 bones, G3F/G3M > 172 bones ~
My G8m, was naked and bald, so no, just body "bones".
