The Merge feature in Twinmotion makes it possible to merge two Twinmotion projects into one file. This can be useful if you work in a collaborative environment with other Twinmotion users on the same projects, or if you want to merge two of your own Twinmotion projects.
When you work on a project with other Twinmotion users, different team members can sometimes be responsible for different parts of the project. For example, to create an architectural scene, someone in your team might be responsible for creating the indoor and outdoor aspects of the building, while you might be responsible for creating the vegetation and landscape. When both of you finish your respective parts, you can merge both Twinmotion projects together to create one project that contains the building, the vegetation, and the landscape.
When you merge files, make sure to delete the Starting ground and Starting landscape from one of the files, otherwise they will be duplicated in the new merged file.

Options
The following table describes the options that you can specify when merging Twinmotion files.
