  Subdivision Surface disappearing when other objects are in the scene.

  I’m running into a strange problem here that might be some simple feature I don’t understand: I have several subdivision surfaces in a comp that all worked perfectly fine until just today. Now, they only work when there are no other objects in the scene.

  You can see them in the editor window (attached first photo, where the wings are smooth in the editor view) but not in the render view (also attached, second image).

  (Thirdly, I attached an image of the subdivision surface settings, so you can see that it’s set to more than 2 subdivisions in both the renderer and editor, so I don’t think that’s the problem.)

  Even weirder, if I delete everything else in the scene, the subdivision surfaces work just fine. Image attached of that as well, #4.

  Note: I am using the plug-in Forester to make the tree trunks. Briefly, I only had to delete those layers to restore the subdivision surfaces, though it had all been working together fine for months before that.
