how do you append a model (with armatures, vertex groups, parenting, actions/animations) from a .blend to another file?
thanks in advance!
- Press Shift F1 to go to the append menu.
- Select the .blend file you want to append from.
- Go to objects and select your model.
Hope this helps

In the append menu, select the file and go into the ‘object’ folder and right click+drag over everything to append it while keeping all the parenting, armatures etc.
EDIT: Beaten to it:D
thanks guys… i didn’t know that you can select multiple objects at once when appendin… simple but neat, and also very helpful… thanks guys!
You can also make a group, by selecting the mesh and armature, the pressing ctrl-g. Then “group” will be one of the options when you append.
thanks self-adhesive… this community is really very friendly… if not for you guys, i would have been stuck… thanks!
