I've been messing around with transfer maps in maya and I cant figure out why my displacement maps come out looking so grainy. Is this a Vray setting or a material setting that Im not seeing?


left side is whats being displaced and right side is my highpoly

Looks like a refinement setting to me, are you dividing your mesh enough to support the details in the displacement map?

I tried adding divisions but it doesn't seem to make any difference

I've never used Vray in Maya but trying turning off feature displacement (a maya setting,) also in Mental Ray the refinement was controlled through the approximation editor.
