Displacement to permanent geometry

[selos69]

Hi Guys and Gals,

 

Is anyone aware of any programs in which a displacement map can form a permanent geometry rather than a geometry formed only during render?

 

Thanks in advance!

Assuming you're using max you can use the displacement modifier and use the same map you were for the render based displacement.

you could use groundwiz, or even dreamscape to apply an image to geoemtry and haveit deform in the viewport.
