## Description:   
In short: A 2x game texture mosr upscaling model, trained on and for (but not limited to) Age of Mythology: Retold textures.

Since I have been playing Age of Mythology: Retold (casual player), I thought it would be interesting to train an single image super resolution model on (and for) game textures of AoMR, but this model should be usable for other game textures aswell.
This is a 2x model, since the biggest texture images are already 4096x4096, I thought going 4x on those would be overkill (also there are already 4x game texture upscaling models, so this model can be used for similiar cases where 4x is not needed).

2xAoMR_mosr

This model is designed to upscale the standard definition digital era of the Pokémon anime, which runs from late season 5 (Master Quest) to early season 12 (Galactic Battles). During this time, the show was animated digitally in a 4:3 ratio. This process was also used for Mewtwo Returns, most of Pokémon Chronicles, and the Mystery Dungeon specials.

Advice/Known Limitations:
* This OmniSR model can occasionally produce black frames when run in fp16 mode. This seems to be more common in the TPCi era (seasons 9 and later). The issue is sporadic enough that it probably makes sense to do a first pass in fp16, then re-upscale any affected shots in fp32.
* I recommend using QTGMC on a preset of "Slow" or slower for deinterlacing. While the show is primarily animated at 12/24 fps, some elements like backgrounds are animated at a full 60i, particularly for the Diamond & Pearl era, which increased the base animation frame rate to 15 fps.
* The model is not great at handling fonts, particularly the italicized text in the episode credits. This is despite including font images in the training data.

Version History:

* 1.1.0 (9/16/2025): Added images from SD portion of season 12, augmented training to better handle slightly resized images.
* 1.0.0: Initial Release

Digital Pokémon-Small

This is a model for the restoration of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic, however it also works decently well on all similar art. 

It was trained in 2x on ground truth 3840x2160 HRs and 1920x1080 LRs of varying compression, so it is able to upscale from 1080p to 2160p, where its detail retention is great, however it may create noticeable artifacting if looked at closely, like areas of randomly coloured pixels along edges. In 1x or 1.5x (2x upscaled and then downscaled back down) it performs extremely well, almost perfectly in fact, in correcting colours, removing compression, and crisping up lines - and this is the way the model is intended to be used (hence the acronym of its name being "SS", or "supersampling").

StarSample V1.0

Upscale modern animation images/videos. Compression, blur, and un-sharpening degradations were used on the dataset. First model I trained and I think it came out pretty well.
