Hi all,

I have a problem with my displacement map.

In my live window it looks good. I set the map to 1024x1024.

When I send it to the picture viewer suddenly the displacement looks spike and ugly. I checked the render setting, everything sames to be identical.


Any suggestions?

Thank you!

Can we see a sample scene?

Yes, attached.

The problem occurs on the stones, black layers.

Thank you!

I hope it works. It is a wetransfer download link for the files

It's related with Render Method appearently. Why do you change to "Send all data"? I set this parts to avoid differences between LV and PV by default.
My advice to keep this settings as default if you don't be sure about background progress. This maybe a bug or not i'm not sure. But render methods generates different geometry structure. This could be a reason. Also see attached diagram about effect of methods.

It is an animation and I thought it can save render time if I set it to "resend only updated object".

I will set back to send all. Does it significantly raise the render time?

Did i wrote wrong? I say samethings. I advice to set it as "Resend only updated objects". It will save a lot of time in animations. It's also default option but in your scene was not like that.

No you did not, sorry. I misread it.

I set it to send all data as a last resort to solve the problem. I experienced the displacement problem before I set it to "send all".

I don't see the problem when i set to "Resend only....". Is it still happening?
