Biped Playback
Biped Playback on the Biped rollout on page 4253 plays the animation for all
bipeds in a scene (unless you use the Display Preferences dialog to exclude
them). This playback mode usually gives real-time playback, which you might
not get if you use the 3ds Max viewport animation Play button.
In Biped Playback mode, the biped is displayed as bones only, with no other
scene objects visible.
Birth Event
A birth event is a special type of
local event on page 7831 that always comes
at the start of a
particle flow on page 7787 , immediately after the global event
on page 7801 . Its first action on page 7701 is a Birth operator on page 2764 or
Birth Script operator on page 2767 . The birth event can contain any number of
additional actions, and can be succeeded by any number of additional events.
