Use the edit button for your posts.
ok, err…
File/Append lets you add resources that are located in other .blend files. And you can import individual things from other .blends. such as meshes, armatures, lamps etc…
The Append Method (SHIFT+F1) only works if you’re exchanging between two blend files. to export bones the best method I found was FBX exporter. Although my FBX crashed both Maya and 3ds after importing correctly, as soon as I moved something or pressed render both programs crashed, maybe you have more luck.
nothing happens when i link append am i doing it right?
Perhaps you need to be more specific about what you’re trying to do (also, please post support questions in the correct forum).
You’re saying export and import, but those terms are typically reserved for getting data out of/into Blender and into/out of some other program. So the real question to start here is this: Are you working only in Blender?
