  • Can't get displacement to work

    Hi there,

    I've been using Thea render professionally, and am considering moving over to Vray. I'm doing a simple test to get displacement working.
    I created a corner, grouped it, and then applied the displacement modifier to the group.

    I applied a brick material to the group. (I did not apply this directly to the faces, but only to the group as a whole.)

    I made sure displacement was switched on for this group and also turned on "Keep Continuity."
    I'm using RTX rendering (3090RTX GPU). I should mention I get the same problem on CPU and CUDA as well.

    Here is the output:

    I get this whether I'm using interactive or final render. CPU, CUDA and RTX all lack displacement.

    What am I missing here?

    I should also mention that I get the same result
    when I apply the displacement to the material itself.
    I understand that this method of displacement will soon be deprecated,
    so I didn't feature it in my initial request for help.
