Placing Models inside larger models

Anonymous

Note: I am a software engineer who is curious about the activities in common with 3D design. In my profession we develop a "main" program and separately some functions or classes.

 

I just posted a project in Freelancer:

 

  Make Modifications to Architectural 3ds Max Model at Freelancer 

 

This is the first time I deal with a model of such size and complexity and have some questions about adding models inside larger ones.

 

These are renders of the original, base model:

My intention is to add some assets, such as...

 

Two mailboxes on the sidewalk:

 

(2c) Models of Street Collection and Relay Mailboxes.jpg

 

A time & temp clock on the building's roof:

 

(1) Model of Hertz Clock.jpg

 

After that job is done, there will probably be improvements to those 2 models (and many others, later). How does that work? Will the designer and myself have to deal with the large model? Is there anyway for a model to have some sort of reference to an existent, smaller one?

 

TIA,

A quick search in YouTube looks promising: XRef vs. Proxy.
