Import One Maya Scene to Another

Omen2601

Hey GUys,
I have two seperate Maya Scenes. Number 1 is where my head is and in Number 2 I created the Eye with all the shading and stuff. Now I want to bring my Eyes into the Number 1 Head Scene, BUT everytime I do that, the eyes turn Black (they were Brown/Green before). So when I position them and go to the Arnold Render View, my Eyecolor is black...Why? I already turned on refraction...but it doesnt help. Please help.

When I render the Eye BEFORE importing it to the other Scene, everythig is just fine...as soon as I import it to my Head Scene and position the Eyes, they turn black in the render view.

is there enough light in the new scene..?
could you post some images..-?

There is enough light, its the Eye Color that changes to Black...It should be a soft Green/Brown Tone but its pitch Black...Maybe Im doing something wrong while importing it to my Head Scene in Maya? I open my Head Scene, then go to Import and click on the Maya File for the Eye and Maya imports it without issues, but when I click on Render View, the eye color changed to Black...Is Maya importing the shading networks automatically? If not, how do I import them...?

Thank you for your help so far

the easiest way for me to help would be if post the eye scene here... i will take a look...

do you have a material with the same name as the eyeball material already in the scene?
