I played around with the physical surface with displacement in the past, the values were tricky there also. It did seem to work but not quite like it does in Firefly. Seemed to require more subdivision than expected IIRC... I'll play around with it some more, does seem a shame to hinge certain details on displacement and have that not work in both renderers optimally. Subdivision morphs out of Zbrush can be unpredictable, can cause you to waste some work.If you are using the PhysicalSurface node, you have access to displacement. But you need a significant resolution for it to work correctly. Don't even bother with Cycles ATM, it's trickier to get the right values for displacement.
@ADP, I peeked into that MC6 file and I see no reference to the PrincipledBsdf node anywhere in the coding. It looks like it's missing nodes.
Thanks for commenting hborre. Also saw your comments on it in the other forum, I'll fuss around with it a bit more seriously when the time comes.
