Object with 2 materials but no displacement

Object with 2 materials but no displacement

I seem to be struggling with a material/rendering problem with MR an I cant 
seem to solve it. I can really use a suggestion. If there are no suggestions 
then how about guide towards a tutorial I may have missed.

The case is simple. I have an object with 2 materials applied to it by 
selecting faces, UVW mapping it, and material IDing it.

Under MR, the material renderes except for the displacement maps.

Why? What am I missing or doing wrong? Or is it MR cannot render 2 
displacements on one object?

Mental Ray doesn't know about multisub materials, which is what you get when 
you apply materials on a per-face basis. Either break the mesh into 
seperate objects or unwrap the uv's and make one material/one map.
