I'm using the material found on Maxwell Materials site and the material is not working correctly. There is absolutly no displacement happening, can anybody help me with this?

1. Would be good to know which material you're using
2. Check, if displacement is set to absolute or cm units. It's possible that displacement is set to let's say 30cm and you're applying material to a huge plane, so you won't see any displacement.

The Material that Im using is "Books by allen_c"

And the plane is real world scale. which is only 3 feet wide and 10 inches high. I've tried ridiculous amounts of displace ment and still nothing.

Also check that the displacement layer is actually activated in the material, sometimes the creator might turn it off and still keeping the displacement layer active within the material. I haven't check that material so i don't know..

Is your plane one poly? It needs small, evenly split subdivisions to work properly.

Or very high precision (slows down render).

I've tested the material here on my PC:
There're are 4 .mxm files and all seem to work fine. Tested on Maxwell Primitves - 'Plane 8x8' and even 'Plane 1x1' turned out to be enough.
I think you should also check your plane's 'UV Parameters'. If your plane is imported from another software, sometimes it happens that UV parameters are all mixed up (when set on default 'Locked') and you won't see material or displacement at all. So try setting 'UV parameters' to 'Cubic'.
Hope that helps.
