Problems scaling thin-walled textures and gray tones

[isaac3030]

Good morning, forum members...

I'm using realesrgan-ncnn-vulkan, and it scales most textures perfectly. However, I'm having trouble with smooth, gray wall textures. realesrgan-ncnn-vulkan creates a strange mesh pattern, and I don't know how to fix it. That's why I'm asking the community if there are any other tools to improve these types of textures. I've attached an example image of my scaled textures...
Any help would be appreciated. Best regards.

Try using Hdcube or Realistic scaler in chaiNNer.

You could also use Topaz Gigapixel'a Recovery or Redifine Realistic functions. If you're up for some really hard work, you could try using ComfyUI but it's a nightmare


If you want, I can take a shot at those and send them back to you

Good morning... The result is incredible, such image definition! The first image file is better than the second. What program did you use? Topaz Gigapixel Recovery is from the IA website and it's a paid program... it costs me a lot of money to use their website for upscaling... Thanks for the sample.

The first one was upscaled with Realistic Scaler and then I ran it through Gigapixel's Redefine Realistic.

I can't send or receive DM's. The site asks me to verify my email (even though I've been here for years) and when I try it bugs out. I've contacted support 5 or 6 times and I've received no reply. You're welcome to add me on Discord (same name and PFP, so easy to find) and we can chat there and I can help you out.
