Upscaling textures maps 1K to 4K test

[tammebelg]

I wanted to test if I could scale up 1k textures maps to 4k.
I use this program : Real-ESRGAN

This is the original 3d mesh with 1k maps (D-N).

This is the result with 4k maps (D-N).

So it is possible.I think it's duller.

Thanks for the tip-off. This sounds like advanced magic to me, but I'll try it out.

There's also this, seems to work quite well.

Topaz AI Gigapixel

I just tried Topaz. It is, however, easier to use. I see that the Topaz image is a little bit slicker after conversion. They both have the same resolution.

Easy to use.
Extract the program to a directory of your choice.
Create an input and an output directory.
Fill input dir with jpg files you want to convert.
open the command prompt in Windows.
Go to the directory where the program is located.
Type this line and then enter:
realesrgan-ncnn-vulkan.exe -i C:\......\input -o C:\......\output

Your output dir will be filled.

@tammebelg Thanks for the usage information for Real-ESRGAN, makes things a lot easier.

I had Topaz for a while but only used it on final images, I hadn't thought about upscaling textures. Going to try this out. I might be able to revitalise some old content maybe.
