material mix as displacement map

Hey there. I have two displacement maps which I want to use together, however when I put a material mix or multiply in the displacement node, it (displacement) stops working. Is that a bug or some limitation?

You will need to merge the two maps in Photoshop, Gimp, etc and then use the resulting image in Octane. See the Octane Notes link in my signature for details.

That's what I ended up doing, but now I have to do all the strength attachments in photoshop. Is this something that could be changed in the future?

Otoy have stated that they would like to look at Displacement Mapping again in the future, so hopefully yes!
