Not sure if this has been mentioned (maybe I did a while back), but in the latest plug-in, displacements aren't saved when using preview in softimage, or exporting mxs files from softimage

Well, I'm not sure how this happened. In the file I was testing (I'm creating materials from scratch), somehow the displacement node directed the map
to a 'color' port in Layers. It looks like this is what kept the displacement from being seen upon export.

Now I can't repro, and it appears to export properly now.

So I must have right clicked on 'map' in displacement node, then selected 'image'. This will create a layer in the node that isn't associated with displacement 'map'. If 'scalar image' is selected when right clicking, it will connect to the map port...
