Hi Guillaume,
could you I ask you to add a Service beer pack 2 with controls to mask only the area visble in camera? E.g. everything else outside the camera´s view isn´t displaced. I´m not sure how much of an optimization this is as it depends solely on how displacement is implemented in general in the renderer. Would setting adaptive displacement allow for reduced geometry tesselation? If the object is tesselated even in areas that have 0 height displacement the mesh´s displacement geometry would still be huge and only the displacemengt height would be affected by the your network? It would be nice to know if it´s possible/worth to mix between two shaders, one with displacement, one without... Intended uses: *large terrain *large ocean *close detail Cheers, tim On 08.08.2012 19:09, Guillaume Laforge wrote:

If you rotate your object, the displacement height goes with the object. So if you rotate it 180, the bumpy area is now away from the camera! That's not what I was expecting.
