Short description of process to make the above

1. upscale initial texture to 4x with XBRZ
2. run XBRZ upscale through camenduru's stable diffusion space I used 0.35 denoising strength and 1 as seed, with a resolution of 384x512. The input prompt is the same as for the pic on the last page which is what clip interrogate gave from the HRP texture

3. the result was then run through codeformer with background enhance turned off, then downscaled back again 384x512

384x512 is approximately the aspect ratio of the original (4:5), from what I can tell stable diffusion needs the resolution of each axis to be a multiple of 64

For comparison this is the pre-Codeformer image

Impressive! I made a post in the Daggerfall Workshop forums, your method might work well on NPC flats too I suppose.

BTW, the clip interrogator method also works very well for the SD upscaler that I linked on the last page. There's also the matter of how much you're willing to edit the prompt after interrogator generates it, you have no idea how many time I've seen CLIP described a texture as a fire hydrant...

This is an ancient painting that depict the terrible "Sukētobōdo no akuma ni notta neko" (Cat On Skateboard Demon) from the japanese folklore. It breaks into homes at 3AM driving families crazy by performing elaborate stunts that trashes all proprieties and babbling a lot of cringeworthy cat-based jokes and dank memes. The only way to calm it down, or even prevent its appearance, is wear an amulet made from one piece of a "Puss In Boots" DVD.

(upscaled the original tile similarly to how I did the poster above, except that before I ran it through SD I added a ton of noise to the image, I then took the top half of the resulting image, and ran through CLIP interrogator to get a new prompt which I used to run it through SD again except at twice the size, at first try the fishnets appeared clearly distorted so I added that to the prompt and ran it again)

Probably overkill for an image that was originally 49 pixels wide

I took my own crack at it with deliberate_v2

First, I started with a generic prompt that I promptly forgot, something like "bright red lingerie, black background" or something. I kept cycling renders until I got a close enough pose.


Once I had that, i locked in the seed and sent the image and seed over to img2img, and promptly replaced it with the Tonight poster image to get a closer pose, from there I kept on tweaking the prompt.

Prompt I used:

Spoiler

thong panties, bright orange red lingerie, female, tussled up brown wavy hair with blonde highlights, oiled body, athletic, hide hands, hazel eyes, smooth shading, flames, tan, orange red picture frame, square jaw, smirk, heavy makeup, slight smile, black background,
Negative prompt: disfigured, kitsch, ugly, oversaturated, grain, low-res, Deformed, blurry, bad anatomy, disfigured, poorly drawn face, mutation, mutated, extra limb, ugly, poorly drawn hands, missing limb, blurry, floating limbs, disconnected limbs, malformed hands, blur, out of focus, long neck, long body, ugly, disgusting, poorly drawn, childish, mutilated, mangled, old, surreal, calligraphy, sign, writing, watermark, signature, text, body out of frame, extra legs, extra arms, extra feet, out of frame, poorly drawn feet, cross-eye, blurry, bad anatomy
Steps: 20, Sampler: DDIM, CFG scale: 8, Seed: 3557019218, Size: 568x712, Model hash: 9aba26abdf, Model: deliberate_v2, Denoising strength: 0.75, Mask blur: 4

cursed result when I didn't have woman in the prompt:

I took out the text on the original poster for a cleaner background and got this result:



Finally, a little photoshop to put in the text and minor touchups:

While I am at it for tonight, here's Exotica:


Similar process as above, except I went straight to img2img and kept cycling seeds until both the pose and that damn flower both showed up

Spoiler

bright red thong bikini, Japanese woman with hands on her bra, long black hair with bangs, night time, flower on right ear, night sky, athletic, brown picture frame, face forward, manga style, darkest shadows, dark tan
Negative prompt: disfigured, kitsch, ugly, oversaturated, grain, low-res, Deformed, blurry, bad anatomy, disfigured, poorly drawn face, mutation, mutated, extra limb, ugly, poorly drawn hands, missing limb, blurry, floating limbs, disconnected limbs, malformed hands, blur, out of focus, long neck, long body, ugly, disgusting, poorly drawn, childish, mutilated, mangled, old, surreal, calligraphy, sign, writing, watermark, signature, text, body out of frame, extra legs, extra arms, extra feet, out of frame, poorly drawn feet, cross-eye, blurry, bad anatomy
Steps: 20, Sampler: DPM++ SDE Karras, CFG scale: 8, Seed: 1464827899, Size: 512x736, Model hash: 9aba26abdf, Model: deliberate_v2, Denoising strength: 0.75, Mask blur: 4

Fingers aren't too horrific which is surprising.

Hey, this OotS strip is making a joke about AIs, right?

There's a new modder doing upscales

His upscales have the same problem as when I started in that there are no palette swaps defined.

I'm only judging by the screenshots posted. The textures look okay I guess, but the sprites and the HUD have this look of wanting some serious touching-up. Doom HUD weapons are in need of cleanup of the white pixels. The "Toon Doom" mod is complete BS and not even remotely "toon" whatsoever. Redneck Rampage has purple outlines over both monsters and weapons?

It's all like someone just discovered ESRGAN or whatever is the tool that they used, and enthusiastically threw assets from all games they could think of into it, with minimal post-production. Doesn't feel like worth a download to me.

A lot of images hosted on discord are dead here. I can revive them by copying the link and paste it in discord. I did it for this one as a test.


ATM too lazy to do it for the rest of the broken images here

You read my thoughts, I was just going to bring this up.

Also congrats on making an Elvira lookalike who actually looks better than Elvira (to my tastes, at least).

[Phredreeke]

I attached the lost images from this page of the thread to this post. I may go through earlier pages later.

"TONGIHT". Priceless. The image itself isn't half bad, though.
