Welcome to the forum!
Wow, these are pretty great. Its interesting to hear the amount of post processing needed on autogenerated portraits to make them good. Did you have to feed the program the existing portraits or anything as training data, or was it just text prompts?
The first thing that struck me when I saw them as a whole is that they look the same as the vanilla portrait set. Same general shape and the same color scheme. When I want to add a portrait pack, it's to expand the general range of shapes and colors to generate unique impressions. Viewed individually, the AI generated images might seem to have variety, but it's very shallow. You cease to be able to differentiate between individual portraits if you use them in-game.
Not saying this portrait pack is bland. They just fit right in.
It's the sort of thing a magician would use in a trick.Well... perceiving the in-game world as vast and as real and as full of people is an illusion, and creating immersion means making that illusion believable. That's the goal. It's like, tricks all the way down, dude! Anyhow, "different strokes" and all that...
Someone is welcome to put them into pack and post them to the forums on my behalf if so moved.
Done! (https://fractalsoftworks.com/forum/index.php?topic=25431.0)Oops, no faction file for the luddic path? I guess it would be identical to the one for the luddic church?
Since Stable Diffusion often creates portraits with the anatomical equivalent of severe dmods, most of my time was spent drawing over or editing results from decent enough basesWhat are you talking about? I had a go at making starsector portraits with stable diffusion about a month ago, and those turned out perfect. Someone should make another portrait pack...
Ah yes, here we can observe the Game Gerf in its natural habitat.Spoiler(https://i.imgur.com/3LGhrgN.jpg)[close]
(Last I read, training the models on specific image sets requires an industrial grade GPU--something closer to an A100 than a 3090--which isn't something I have access to.)
Stable Diffusion doesn't run on my computer. I guess because it's an old laptop.
But what happens if you use it to generate new ships for Starsector based on the existing sprites?
