ZBrush to Houdini Vector Displacement Workflow? Having trouble getting 7mil poly details onto 100k poly

[axalon 1]

Workflow for this sample mesh is as follows:

• Create dynamesh, subdivide to 2 mil points
• Apply variety of alphas to mesh
• ZRemesh to 8k poly, subdivide to 7 mil, project details
• Use UV Master
• Create vector displacement with attached settings, base mesh is around 100k

What am I missing here? Was able to get blackpixel's example working just fine: https://www.sidefx.com/forum/topic/46764/#post-211000 [sidefx.com]

Should I try Mudbox?
