I have always struggled to get displacement to work properly in VRay for SketchUp and now I am having issues with using a live link to Vantage with displacement. What are some best practices? I have place the are that is to be displaced in a group, I added the displacement modifier to that group. When I render using CPU rendering inside of SketchUp, the displacement appears. When I run the file in Vantage, it shows no displacement. I have my settings for displacement in Vantage set as follows.
Hello @ValeroStudio ,
I am not able to reproduce the issue, 2D Displacement is rendering properly in Vantage on my side with these settings. Could you please send us a scene file with a geometry demonstrating the issue, here or via a support request?
Thank you in advance!
Kind regards,
Iva

Thank you for your report @ValeroStudio !
I would like to update you that our QAs were able to replicate the issue with Displacement not rendering in Vantage due to incorrect scaling in specific cases. It is logged internally under LAV-2792 and both your forum topic and ticket are linked to it.
We will let you know of any changes. In the meantime the simplest workaround is to remove Displacement from the Group and Reapply it.
Hello @ValeroStudio ,
