Update time!
V.2 will be released hopefully by March, or maybe even earlier.

The audio will be 5.1 now instead of stereo, thanks to Hal 900’s lossless mix.
below are some of the changes made for V.2

. Threepio now says “there will be no escape this time”
. scenes restored back to there original form will have the audio to match.
. stormtrooper that bumps his head now doesn’t, he stays back until the leader trooper enters the room.
. all lightsaber flashes have been re-done.
. the five frames during the escape from the DS that where removed in the SE have been reinstated.
. Frames lost during the creation of DevEd have been re-instated.
. Most changes from Darth Editous’s edit have been replicated here.
(pm for link to his edit)

Anything I missed please tell me.

also V.2 will have full visual change list, like this:

thanks

I’ll probably forget so just pm me when it’s released.

<strong>The Mandalorian</strong> - a general discussion thread - * <em><strong>SPOILERS</strong></em> *

It’s strange how this one shot has been taken out of every online version of the latest season 3 trailer and can only be seen in the trailer on the USA version of Disney+

Huh that’s weird, are you sure you’re on the us version?
I cant seem to find that shot in the trailer.

Edit: Never mind, news is spreading that disney plus secretly released “Alternate” trailer:

DevEd V.1

DevEd V.2

Flipping the Death Star causes problems with the lighting now coming from the wrong direction when compared to the stardestroyer.

I flipped it because I replaced the earlier shot of the destroyer with the one from ESB;

so I wanted them to match.

Any ideas on how to fix this?

Color matching and prediction: color correction tool v1.3 released!
Time

Hal 9000 said:

I’ll do that. I was erring on the side of more smoothing only because I assumed it mattered how closely the test and reference images were identically aligned.

If I understand correctly, I could shuffle the pixels of both images into a random order and get the same result.

Have you found a smoothing number that works best when the sources just aren’t cropped or aspect-ed identically?

0.05 usually works for me if the two sources really look different.

They should be cropped the same.

Exactly this.

Why’ll you’re here Dr, why do sometimes weird colored pixels show up in the highlighted areas and never seem to go away on any settings?

Hal 9000 said:

I’m trying to use this for two different sources for ESB, one from 2004 and another the 19SE. I align the images as best I can before generating the two frames to feed into the tool, but I can’t get it to be exact.

Would it be better to use a higher smoothing parameter? I haven’t seen DrDre recommend anything higher than 0.1, but it can go as high as 1. If the two images are not totally identical (same frame, but the sources aren’t pixel-perfect), is there a drawback to using 1 as the smoothing parameter?

you should adjust the color spaces to about 75. that yields better and more elegant results.
only use the smoothing parameter if there’s any color pixelation.

I’m wondering, are the galleries that show how Harmy drew on different sources to make Despecialized still available? The pictures.google.com links don’t seem to work for Empire or Star Wars.

I believe this is what you’re looking for which I archived a while back, hope this is it:

https://1drv.ms/u/s!AowuMCRBTqsugdEa_kMz9CY3KsWXDw?e=hpRFhh

I ask for the comparisons for Empire and you send me the ones for A New Hope.

Why?

You also said “star wars” you didn’t specify just ESB.
chill out.
