This is my first upload as well as my first ever slider , so NOOB warning!
Usage:
Slider range: -2 +2
Most of the smoothing effect takes place in +1 and +2 range. Anything bellow +1 is probably too weak to make a difference.
Avoid using upscalers that have a strong sharpening effect such as 4x-AnimeSharp as they will can overpower the slider effect
Based on my testing the slider seems to struggle with character loras that trained mostly with anime screenshots. Max-weight of +2 hopefully gets you out of vector trace-range at least.
As you approach +2, you might start seeing some noise. Going above 2+ will probably ruing the image.
Purpose of this slide is simply to add SLIGHT smoothness to shading when using tags like anime coloring or anime screencap. Normally these tags generate images with edges so sharp they might as well be vector traces, very unlike to original anime I aim to reproduce. This slider smooths the edges, while preserving the overall style (Ideallly).
I got tired of juggling around with tags, style loras and upscalers so I made this and figured might as well release it.
This slider also has an sharpening effect at negative weight, but in don't see much use for it, and it is not what this slider is really for.
I plan to update this slider at later date, when I get the motivation to try again. Maybe expand the smoothness range, make extreme effect look better and figure out to overpower other loras. (No promises though!)
