I'm 90% sure it's just something I"m doing, but I want to drop a displacement map on some objects, and I do it by creating a diffuse texture, creating a displacement node and going to either "Grayscale" Or "RGB Image" but neither cause a displacement to appear on the object. I was told I need to look for an "Image texture" node but i can't find it anywhere

Hi Omegauser9,
please, post a screenshot, it is more easy to try to spot the issue.
Yes, displacement works only with image textures.
Anyway, please, check the uvs, octane displacement works better with proper unfolded not overlapping uvs.
