Hi gogopig,
the Octane displacement is completely different compared with the c4d internal one. In particular, it only works with black and white images, possibly with high depth. Always use an Imagetexture node before loading any kind of texture in c4dOctane.
Another important aspect is that a correct UV unwrap is needed without overlapping polygons.
The uv unwrap of your mesh was not good, could you retry with this version, please?

hi,
here is my attempt, it's not perfect, probably with 8k texture would be better

the sculpt displacement is totally different and the only one that seems similar is in rgb world mode, round geometry active, type normal, inverted active

edit: I forgot to mention that I have used the v3 alpha 6 where the shift value is changed in mid level.
