Earring prop rendering in different orientation and position than Iray preview

I've never had this problem before. I found one forum post about someone having a similar issue, but it was with an earring prop they created. I'm having the problem with the earrings that come with the Mystique 2 outfit by Herschel Hoffmeyer. I've used them numerous times before and this has never happened as far as I could tell. I've attached two screenshots: the earrings in Iray preview, and in the render. They're not the same camera and the render is zoomed in because it's hard ot see without zooming in.

  • Also just tried deleting and reloading the earrings into the same scene, and the same thing happens. After reloading, I didn't even change the orientation, just left it at default, and it still rendered in the wrong orientation. I guess I should try on another scene as well, just to see if it's scene-dependent.

    They are attached with rigid follower nodes. So it could be due to subD level, although it seem like a rather significant change.

  • That could be it, I usually set SubD and Render SubD levels the same, at least as a final check before rendering, but in this case I went back and realized the character had a higher Render SubD. I switched to another earring in this scene just to get this render done, but I will double-check that next time I use these earrings.
