Just loaded this old scene and the geo isn't being rendered with subdivisions in H20. Works as expected in 19.5. Is there a new setting somewhere I need to change?

Just isolating the geo, it's definitely not working in H20.

Before packing up a test scene I tried deleting the H20 user folder. That fixed the problem! Must be something left over from 19.5 that conflicts. Will have to move things over one by one until I find the culprit.

Found the cause of the issue. I have a .json package instead of using houdini.env. If I remove {"HOUDINI_DISABLE_CONSOLE": 1}, from it then subd works in Solaris. Any idea why this would happen?

That's bizarre! The two shouldn't be related. Can you please file a bug along with the json package (and the scene if possible) please? Thank you!

Leave it to me to find the most bizarre bug right off the bat, haha. Will file a report with the package and scene later today, thanks!

Quick update on this: I submitted a bug report but since I'm probably the only person on earth having this problem I imagine it's very low priority. I did however stumble on an alternate env variable: HOUDINI_TEXT_CONSOLE. This replaces the console with a normal window, which is much less annoying than the default behavior. And subd works too!
