Displacement or Bump isn't working on Particles

[simonsimon]

Hi Everyone !

I've a pretty simple scene with some particles from shape instance that won't display displacement or bump. So: 


Am I missing something ?
Is it not yet implemented ?
Is it a bug ?

It's a Vray 3.6 scene.

Here's the file & a screenshot

Thanks a lot for your answers.

Thanks simon, I'll look into it tonight and get back to you.

Hey Simon,

After a bit of research, VRay doesn't support displacement maps in materials on its internal data type, which is what I'm using for tyFlow. To get your displacement map to work, add a VRayDisplacementMod to the tyFlow and set "use object mtl" to true. That works for me over here (only if Mesh operator is set to "trimesh" though...this method is not supported on instances).

adding VrayDisplacementMod makes the tyflow object disappear (vray next)

You can't use it for instances.
