What does HackerNews think of Real-ESRGAN?

Real-ESRGAN aims at developing Practical Algorithms for General Image/Video Restoration.

Language: Python

There's a list of upscaling models here, based on your content: https://upscale.wiki/wiki/Model_Database

The easiest one to get started with is probably Real-ESRGAN: https://github.com/xinntao/Real-ESRGAN

> but pixel output is just not good enough for games.

I've been using https://github.com/xinntao/Real-ESRGAN to increase AI renders resolution, it works very very well on some styles, you can easily x4 or x8 the resolution if you know what you're doing and have some photoshop knowledge for the cleanup

You're probably better of using Real-ESRGAN: https://github.com/xinntao/Real-ESRGAN. It's pretty solid and fast, even has portable executables you can just use as is. The upscaler that comes with stable diffusion might work for you, but I suspect it'll probably do a better job at upscaling stable diffusion output rather than a natural images (might be wrong though).
I'm currently trying to put 1000x wallpaper seamless textures into UE5 Marketplace. I'm saddened to see this news.^^. Well, fuck money anyway right? Here's a tip, you can produce all you need if you follow this guide:

Just check what this stuff can do:

This is the best page on the internet right now. The hottest stuff. Better than Bitcoin.

You can get guidance and copy business ideas here: https://lexica.art/ https://laion-aesthetic.datasette.io/laion-aesthetic-6pls/im... http://stable-diffusion-guide.s3-website-us-west-2.amazonaws...

For textures: Once you have generated the color map (diffuse) from StableDiffusion, you can use CrazyBump to BATCH create the normal map and displacement map. I'm currently at my 200th file iteration. http://www.crazybump.com/ CrazyBump, all the cool kids are using it.

Now this is where I'm at. Call me crazy. I'm forgetting stuff surely, but it's the best I can do. Go and change the world.

PS: You can Batch Upscale the 512 to beautiful 2k+ with this link: https://github.com/xinntao/Real-ESRGAN

This UI wrapper doesn't have any way to set options for upsample or tile size parameters. I also don't see any way for it to set the model yourself.
