Hello there,

Try to find the solution here but can't find a way to solve this problem. I have a high poly model fractured with a voronoi object with a displacement texture on inside faces of debris. Everything looks quite ok in the live viewer but the polygons affected by the displacement map dissapear in final render.

Here is the liveviewer render



And Final Render



I lost all my hairs on that, tried everything from testing different projections to dancing in the rain praying for help, nothing worked... Help would be really appreciated, I mean, champaign bottle and stuff...

Hope you don't expect some magic without sending any scene about your issue!

Two things I can whistle in dark if you really want to hear somethings:
1- You distributed pieces by dynamic effects and needs caching.
2- Using a deprecated parameter in render setting

Thanks for your feedback. Dynamics are already cached but geometry engine is indeed set to deprecated. I switched on Updates Objects Only and just send a test render on a random frame of the sim. I will keep you updated. Of course I can share you the project file but considering the objects and tex involved it's pretty huge (around 200/300mo). I can drop a link here or mp.

Are you ok to take a look if the new geometry engine test fails?

Thanks a lot anyway, you're a light in the night!! ^^

I'm not volunteering to jump every questions, because I need time for plugin. Doing tests if it's not answered/solved by users after all possibilities ended. Send me the project by PM if you cannot really solve it. Thanks

*facepalm* - Geometry is back - THANK YOU!!

legit, alrighty then

Yes, still render looks fine, it's the same one in LV and PV at least. The whole piece is rendering now, should be fine, finger crossed. I would let you know if something goes wrong, wait and see. ^^ (I had problems with voronoi fracture pieces UV before that. That's why I changed the projections settings and run into that actual problem. Hope everything's correctly set up.)
