Alpha v0.2.1

Changelog:

Bug Fixes

• Fix a critical issue causing the CPU and FP16 toggles to not work

Alpha v0.2.0

Changelog:

Features

• Integrated Python (separate virtual env from your system python) now gets automatically downloaded and used on startup. No more having to worry about getting the right version and making sure your dependencies aren't outdated.
• Reworked the Settings panel to have separate tabs, one of which includes an option to disable the integrated Python and use system Python instead (the old default)
• Reworked the Dependency Manager to show download/install progress, as well as installing specific versions to avoid incompatibility.
• Made node connections behave similarly to Unreal Engine blueprints when positioned in certain ways.
• Revamped how slider inputs look so that they now display useful data.
• Added a check in the interpolation nodes that will error if two models are incompatible, either due to using a different architecture or from not sharing a pretrained model ancestor.
• Reworked the logic for how nodes get visually updated while running, meaning more kinds of updates besides just finished connections can be shown more easily in the future.

Bug Fixes

• Since updates have to be vetted now, and due to the new way I install pip packages, updating Pytorch will no longer install the CPU version.
• The concatenate nodes now do a proportional resize rather than a 1:1 resize when concatenating images of different shapes.
• Fixed a bug where image names that contained unicode characters would error instead of being read.
• Number inputs are now allowed to be empty, which will be marked as invalid.
• Potential VRAM improvements (YMMV, let me know if you're still getting stuck VRAM)
• Loading .chn files that were saved while running the chain will no longer import animated.

Alpha v0.1.4

Changelog

Bug Fixes

• Fixed a bug that caused numerical inputs to become NaN, and also caused certain numerical inputs to not support decimals anymore

Alpha v0.1.3

Changelog:

Bug Fixes

• Fixed a bug that caused CPU to be force-enabled for some Nvidia users
• Fixed a few bugs that caused PyTorch to not free up VRAM during the upscale process
• Fixed a bug that would prevent the backend python process from being killed correctly
• Fixed FP16 and CPU modes not being mutually exclusive
• Fixed some issues with the concatenate nodes
• Fixed some issues with the slider inputs
• Fixed an issue where processing for too long would result in a blank error
• Fixed an issue with finding an open port for the backend process which could sometimes result in the app not opening

Features

• Added more build targets (portable .zips for Windows and Linux, DMG for MacOS)
• Added new Blur and Shift nodes as well as more color convert options (thanks @FlashlightET)
• Added a delete button for connections to make them easier to remove
• Added a default for numerical inputs (defaults to 0 now)
• Expanded the amount the user is allowed to zoom

Alpha v0.1.2

Alpha v0.1.2

Changelog:

• Fixed issue with the bundled server where certain dependencies would not be installed. Now the server is no longer bundled and instead, it silently installed the required package on startup.

Alpha v0.1.1

Alpha v0.1.1

Changelog:

• Removed an unneeded pip install that happened on startup

Alpha v0.1.0
