This looks eerily similar to how tf2 looks like in my dreams. The bright textures that pop out among everything, look too detailed for their purpose, and are somewhat incomprehensible at first glance, because of not fitting with the artstyle. The grass especially, everything's just uncannily green, like every map got mashed together with Enclosure and mossrock

TF2 is definitely meant to have vibrant textures. It's funny, because right now, CS2 is more vibrant than TF2, despite it supposed to look more "realistic." It goes to show you how incredible TF2 could like if remastered the right way.

@puzzlepuddles6712 9 ай бұрын

it's crazy how fast tf2 turns into csgo when you change the texture color and size. csgo use desaturated and smaller textures while tf2 is the opposite. in fact, it's funny how excessively bige tf2 textures are

@soty9107 Ай бұрын

I've had a similar experience with using AI textures in blender and i can only recommend to use some Stable Diffusion client like Invoke. It can create tiling textures automatically so less editing needed and you generally have more fine control over parameters and inputs. Your results are already pretty good though, courtesy of bing and laborious editing.

@s4videos 10 ай бұрын

Huh, neat project. The end-result resembles one of those absolutely trash Android phone games. I guess that's due to all the textures no longer having a coherent, united art-style. Plus, maybe this is how the textures in those games are created in the first place: AI with some sprucing up. It's truly harsh on the eyes.

@LEDs 9 ай бұрын

Perhaps AI like this could be useful for drafting color pallets. For example, instead of modeling a sand texture, you can just generate one and slap it on. Then if you like it, you can spend more time tweaking it or recreating it from scratch.

@somdudewillson 8 ай бұрын

Trash mobile games predate useful text-to-image by quite a bit - and while generating textures with AI is easier than painting them, do you know what's _even easier?_ Just using the first google image search result.

@Kibble_Bites 10 ай бұрын

What I took away from this is that AI is perfect for generating textures with automatic noise and allowing the user to make them seamless afterwards but when it comes to things that are suppose to be geometric or clean-cut, it struggles to conceptualize it for whatever reason and it's better for the user to just make the texture themselves. Somehow despite TF2's artstyle I will have to say that the AI images gave it more of a pop and was more visually appealing to me personally.

@LEDs 9 ай бұрын

Great analysis. I think AI is very viable for generating thinks like dirt, concrete, sand, and other fine textures, but not specific things like windows, glass, and tiles to some extent (though in this case I think it did a great job).

@somdudewillson 8 ай бұрын

It's important to keep in mind that this use case is super not something the image generation tool used was trained to do - therefore, while it _can_ do it, it's not particularly good at it. A fine-tuned model focusing on specifically textures would do much better.
