how to copy a 3d object in max to another max scene?

Good Day...

Sir/Madam,
in autocad if i want to copy a certain 3d object to another autocad 3d scene.. copy with base point po.
sa max. po ba mayroon ganun? example. a isang max scene may kukunin ako sana na isang 3d object tapos ilalagay ko sa another max scene that I'm currently working on... is thier a way to do that?

salamat po.....
best regards to all cg Pinoy.

Sa palagay ko meron, merge mo lang yung object na gusto mong ilipat. Pagkatapos mong e merge proxy mo nalang para hindi masyadong mabigat yung file.

sir bakugan. salamat po.... ok na po

tiningnan ko ko yung merge sa index help...

if your intention is to get one model from a another max scene...do this
1. select that object, then go to File Menu
2. select Xref Object. - the object will be isolated form the other as a max file
3. to insert it to your other max scene, go agian to File menu and hit Merge ( as sir Bakugan elabotated) or you may hit xref scene.

Not really entirely wrong but for purposes of intention - this has no meaning at all. XREF is cool if all you want is to SEE the "other" object in the viewport and not edit them.

XREF is a collaboration tool, you use it to work on somebody else's file and they get updated realtime.

Merge is for merging. So follow bakugan's advice.
