4. The Motion Import Settings panel will appear.
   
   • Motion Profile:
     • These profiles are from the Characterization panel in Character Creator.
     • The profiles record the bone-mapping, bone-rotation, floor contact, HIK property data for converting the motions.
   • Motion T-pose (Optional): You can load the T-pose produced from the same sources of the imported motions. This setting is optional.
   • Motion Folder: Displays the location of the motion files.
