Worked: 2.79
Short description of error
Hello :) if you spread leaves via hair-particles on a tree .... and then spread that tree on your terrain, again via hair particles - the "sub"-particles (leaves) not get rendered.
true for eevee&cycles - also for final rendering in both engines
in 2.79 viewport the sub-particles have also not shown up in viewport - but in final render they did render
in 2.81 they dont render at all - in both engines
Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
please open the attached blend and hit F12
the original tree show the leaves... the same tree that i spread via particles on terrain do not render the leaves at all - also not with F12
also switch to cycles > F12 > they do not show up in the render & viewport - on both engines
thx for your nice work on 2.8 and have a great day everybody
