glmExportMotionMapping
As of August 5th, 2025, Golaem will no longer provide direct support.
All support for Autodesk Golaem will now be handled exclusively through Autodesk support channels and this website will be deactivated.
Please bookmark the Autodesk Golaem Support section for any future support needs related to Autodesk Golaem packages.
glmExportMotionMapping command provides a way to export a motion mapping like the Character Maker does automatically.
