Animate displacement

[folklore]

Hello there,
got a short question. I want to have displacement around a moving object.
Thought the best way to do that is the vray distant shader, but it doesnt seem
to work in the vray geometry tag.

any suggestions?

Edit: Something similar what you can do with the c4d displacer deformer and field falloff

Hello folklore

I tested the Displacement and the animation works as expected by default.

Could you share with us a visual representation of what you are trying to achieve so we can assist you?

Sorry for coming back so late, but had to finish the project and forgot about this.
I attached a simple setup. It seems I cant get distant shader in the displacemnet tag working.
The color material works as intended. Where's my error?

Hi folklore,

Please note that the 2D Displacement type is not working with procedural maps. If you switch the Type to Normal, it should work correctly.
