Adding Blend files to an open Blend file?

Heya i don’t think this was named right so im hoping people still understand it. I was curious about whether you can add a .blend file into another file you already have open.

For instance you have a .blend which contains a room. and then you have several .blends that contain furniture. is it possible to import them into the room?

Thank you

File -> Append

Append the ‘object’, not the ‘mesh’.

If you have more complex setups, where not everything is joined in a single object. You might want to join these objects in a group and then append the group.
Another option is Linking instead of appending, this only produces a link into the original blend file.

Hmmm so If i have an object “lets say i light” which has several meshes to make it up. Is it possible to bring the thing in whole and not one mesh at a time? Its so i can create several houses and then import them onto a map later on.

You can select multiple objects or even the whole scene when you append.

I can only get it to bring in one mesh (object at a time?)?

Once your at the object folder you can shift or cntl click to get more objects. get all the ones you want before hitting link/append

Mwahaha I’ve got it now:) Thanks guys:)
