Actually Luke was footage from the OT, they had Carrie’s daughter do young Leia and used CGI that’s why it looks a little strange.
If anybody is even remotely skilled at deepfaking I’d imagine that Rey’s eyes could be taken care of rather easily. Yes, you’d be deepfaking Daisy Ridley’s face onto Daisy Ridley’s face but based on what I understand the eyes would be normal again once finished. Might be something I’ll look into myself eventually if it’s all we are waiting on.
It’s also worth looking into for the brief young Leia appearance in the flashback. Luke looks fine but Leia is definitely in the uncanny valley like her appearance in Rogue One. A simple deepfake should fix that.
They didn’t use deepfakes for Luke and Leia, they used footage from The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi for that scene, but I see what you mean.
Hopefully it will come out real soon. Fingers crossed.
How many chapters now? Just checkin.
I’m currently working on Chapter 14. I do want to apologize to everyone looking forward to Half-Blood Prince. Lately, I’ve been kinda slack and getting distracted by other things, and it really is my fault. I’m going to try and get back on track today. That is my main goal and priority.
Hope you continue to have fun with it! Thanks for your hard work. I finally finished CoS this morning (been busy with other audiobooks as well) and it was a delight!
Thanks, man. I’ve thankfully have been getting back into Half-Blood Prince and I’m starting to get my food and fun back. It’s just that distractions and even mood switching to other interests can interfere at times. This is why I usually take about a month off in between books.
Keep up the good work Noah! The day you finish the whole series will be the day I start my complete relisten, which I’m hoping will be sometime not too far in the future 😉 I hope you’ll be able to stay motivated in the final stretch ❤️
Thanks, man. I’d say it will be sometime next year when I’ve completed Deathly Hallows.
You used any of those sound effects that I gave you?
Not yet, as I’m still a good ways away from those chapters.
Wow that’s More than I thought. You’re almost halfway through it. That’s great.
Thanks, Rob. I appreciate it.

Is it possible that lines referring to blood may still be left in? It could refer to the Dark Side nature and destiny, rather than a blood relationship status.
Or Luka Frik more likely, but that’s right.
Okay. Hopefully it won’t take too long. I know you’re probably excited to release V2. I suppose after that’s out, the discussion will move into the Rey Nobody version, unless that will continue on its own thread.
At this point everything other than the video stream itself has been finished. I just need a handful of visual elements, but I’m told it could be a couple weeks yet for those, let alone a little time to encode.
I see. So, essentially Rey’s eyes (NeverarGreat) and the desert and Kijimi sequences with the crackly saber are left in terms of video stream. I think the remaining stuff with the saber is being done by either poppasketti or RogueLeader.
Hi there,
Whats the process to access those of your work?I was looking for exactly what you have created.
PM sent.
Are you still planning on revising A New Hope like you mentioned with some of the changes back in September, Hal?
Thank you for combing through the thread, Master Lawdog! That’s the tricky thing about this project being nearly 600 pages long. Geez…
No problem. I just went through a specific user’s post to track down the important stuff for the time being.
So in the scene between Rey and Luke, everything from his haircut, to desaturating the blueness of his ghost to grading the footage to take place at dawn has all been done in one?
Oh wow! I was gone to get some food and video games to come back and find out that I’ve helped out a great deal.
I was only bringing something to mention, but I’m real glad I actually did something good for the edit. Your welcome, everyone!
You have brought hope to those in the galaxy that had none.
Thanks! Just waiting on NeverarGreat on Rey’s eyes. I also hope he gives her Sith yellow eyes when she flares her teeth too, aside from replacing the milky white ones.

^ I can’t be sure from my phone: do those Vimeo links offer downloading original file? A file that is ProRes or something similarly high quality?
I’m not entirely sure.
I imagine you’re right. Maybe MR could chime in to clarify. With that footage, though, the only things I wouldn’t have any footage to use would be Rey vs. TIE and drawing her saber on Zorri.
What do you mean? The first two Vimeo links are those two scenes.
…Drive? Could you send that to me? It’s hard to imagine we all missed that, unless it was determined by the FX experts that it needed sprucing up. I honestly can’t remember for certain!
Here is kewlfish’s work. Something tells me that the reason they may not be used is because the community felt the crackle was either inconsistent or not strong enough. Just hope nobody will get pissed at me for bringing this up if I may be not aware of an old conversation on the thread.
The passwords for the vimeo links is fanedit.

Because kewlfish never made his footage available before going missing.
That’s odd, because I found everything he did on Vimeo and Drive.
By the way, I was going through the old posts, and noticed that kewlfish did crackle videos on Ajan Kloss, Pasaana, Kijima and the Star Destroyer. Luka Frik finished the work for the Death Star and Exegol. How come kewlfish’s stuff isn’t being used then? Combining kewlfish and Luka Frik’s work, and it’s done. Is it an inconsistent crackle? I must be missing something.
So? How are things coming along?
… Half-Blood Prince and Deathly Hallows will obviously still come out, but I want to also pace myself to not burn myself out or get bored with the project.
Great to see your audiobook projects still going strong but don’t let Harry burn you out Noah 😉
I’ll try not to. 😄
That’s how Ascendant handles it already.
I know you want this to be the end and also want a Rey Nobody version to exist, but you’re not intending on making a V3, are you, Hal?
