Hello everybody.
I can’t get the displacement maping working. I can’t find the mistake.Sombody who can help me? I can see a dispacement in the preview of the material editor but when rendering the material is entirely plain. You will find all settings in the screen shoot.
thanks for help.

Hello, this the first time I’m writing on this site.
I think that you may have a look on your material properties. There is a topic for displacement settings.
I hope that it will help you.
Best regards.

This displacement don’t work with vray.

In the texture editor,under bitmap you should have a number 1 or more in the modifier.

Re: displacement problem

McNeel’s Displacement does not work with V-Ray. We have our own displacement function which you can find under Maps in the vray material editor. You can set it up just like you would a bump or another texture. If for some reason you really want to use mcneel’s displacement you will have to use the ExtractDisplacedMesh command which will produce the displaced mesh (not nurbs), but this will be more memory intensive.

Re: displacement problem

Thanks but I have a multiplier there wich is 1. I’ve also tried different values but no effect. what make me litle confused is that the material prewiew shows a displacement.

hello abhikaam, in the render options increase the amount (in displacement setts),
that worked fine for me…
