character studio ships with a library of motions that you can apply to any biped. Some of these motions have been created using Freeform or Footstep methods. Other motions have been created using motion capture.
Since these are motion files, not .max files, they do not include geometry. Many of these files demonstrate motions that happen with imaginary objects, but the objects are not visible in the scene. You'll have to supply your own, and animate them to match the motions.
Here is a catalog and brief description of some of these motion files.

The Motion capture files provided with the software are designed to be used in motion flow networks for crowd simulations, and for general animation use. The motions were designed to fit together, and represent variations to build a motion flow network. Files that share similar names represent a range of motions meant to be joined in a motion network for use with the crowd system.
To open the motion capture files, use motion capture import. If you want to use them in motion flow networks, save them as BIP files. You can also use just a segment of a captured motion by saving a segment of the file to create a new BIP file.
Naming Conventions
The files have been named to indicate direction and foot placement of the motion.
Cyclic locomotion has been captured at turning angles of either 45 or 90 degree increments in both the left and right direction. In the case of walking, fast walking and jogging, there are also comprehensive coverage for turning on both the left or the right foot. For example, walk_L90_Rfoot means walking with a left 90 degree turn, and the turn occurs on the right foot.
Motion Capture Studios
The BVH files were captures at Modern Uprising Studios (www.modernuprising.com). The CSM files were captured at House of Moves (www.moves.com).
Motion Capture Talent
Jodie Melnick performed the female motions at the Modern Uprising Studios. Kim Weild performed the female motions at the House of Moves. Michael Girard performed all the male motions.
