I’m running Max 2012 and have been working on rigging a character using the Biped system. I’ve added twist links to all of my limbs, but for some reason I cannot find them in the hierarchy or add them to my character’s skinning (making them pointless). How do I make them available in the hierarchy so I can give my character’s forearm some realistic twisting?

They are likely hidden and/or frozen. If you check them on in the structure controls they should appear.

WOW. They WERE frozen. No idea why they would be frozen on default, but that fixed my problem. Thanks!
