Hey guys,
Not sure who this goes out to, but this one is for the followers,
Thanks for all your support over the past couple years, with most of the cast having been done by now I am still looking for suggestions for who to do next or to do remasters of already done characters who could be better.
I intend to use my full google collab subscription so Ill aim to do as much as I can.
Again, I will commit myself to Muv-Luv/áge characters until they are all done and their clothes too.
I've learnt a lot over the past couple years in regards to training but I think theres still much for me to learn. I think my more recent works have been considerably better than the older works Ive made but in regards to accuracy and consistency I feel like every generation is very much RNG. Which I understand for the most part it is, but I see plenty of generations on pixiv for MuvLuv characters who seem to be extremely consistent when it comes to clothing outfits. If anyone has any advice for training parameters please share your knowledge with me. At the moment I currently separate all major outfits into their own folders, and remove any art in the datasets that are inconsistent with the majority of the data to minimise error propagation. But I feel I can do better, sometimes I experiment with FP32 training or BF16 training but I feel I dont see very much improvement.
Anyhow, going forward I think I will stop including multiple outfits for a lot of characters as usually each character does not have enough data for every outfit but as a collective they do. I think the best way forward is to separate the training, character training is very cheap and easy, outfit training takes longer to get right and when combined the character doesnt need to fight with the outfit lora. Let me know your thoughts on this.
Again to all my faithful followers and supporters, thank you for being with me over the years and the many hiatuses I've had. Despite my long breaks, I doubt Ill ever truly be gone.
