displaement woes

I have a Klip Lok vray material I got from vray-materials and I am mapping it to a 1/8" thick roof material over top my roof. But when I apply the modifier, either in the material editor or as a modifier. It actually MOVES the entire object up and hovers over the roof. Thanx all and any help is appreciated

Displacement

I had this issue before… it was a MAX thing. Try subdividing your element.

Check if you have native MAX displacement disabled or your object will displace twice.

If the displacement map is gray it will move the whole object up, you can negate this with a negative value in the “shift” option of the displacement.
