Displacement in 1.0074

[Earthling]

What's the deal with displacement in SR1? I could get it to work all the time in the original release, but now I can't for the life of me get it to function at all in SR1. I've tried grouping geometry, subdividing geometry, applying the texture to the faces and lines, applying texture to the group, but nothing seems to work. I've tried it on several different primitive shapes with still no luck. I see you guys using it for rugs all the time.....is there something I'm missing?

Haven't experience any difference in methods between versions.

On a sidenote, I'd really recommend you updating your SR1 (1.00.74) to SR1.5 (1.05.02).

Will do. Thanks.

Finally got the displacement to take. I was trying to displace grass on a contoured surface. I had to subdivide the mesh twice and this gave vray enough triangles to work with, then the displacement started working.
