So how does microdisplacement work now in 2.79?

Hi @Secrop , could you please explain further how to use that Python file? My mortal brain can’t figure out

I thought i could just ‘run script’ as seen at @nudelZ 's video but no success (it doesn’t give any error too):

Blender MakeBake Vector Displacement Baking (Demo :))

Also another question: How is it possible to apply adaptive subdivision without tear effects? When i try to apply it something other than a plane, it tears apart from the seams generated. But in video there was no problem applying it to a rectangular prism.

I’ve also checked your post from 2 years ago but failed baking a proper vector displacement map:

Cycles new microdisplacement testing, discussion and blend sharing

There’s another way… I’ve tested it and it works good, but I must perform other tests to check every possibilities. This was basically what I’ve done: 1 create the basic object, unwrap, add a multi-res and sculpt. 2 prepare a temporary image texture, for baking the original vertices position (preferably with the float option) 3 with the multires turned off, bake the Object coordinates (i.e. plug the object coords to an emit shader) 4 create another texture, to store the displacement (also …

Here is the asteroid like shape i created for my tests: Asteroid_multires.blend (854.6 KB)

Here is the final bake result i can get (probably wrong):
