Quality of Renders is Good Enough?
🕑 Added 2023-09-07 09:15:10 +0000 UTCHi,
While waiting for my friend to send me the game files, I did a check on the Quality of Renders. These are what I have been doing as well as what I can do:
A. Best Quality from Photoshop after removing noises:
B: Current Quality from Photoshop after removing noises (60% quality compared to the Best Quality):
C: Lower Quality from Photoshop after removing noises (40% quality compared to the Best Quality):
D: Compressed from my friend (the same size as #C the Lower Quality):
If we use the Best Quality, the file size will be so high. MFF-0.10 will be around 5GBs. It isn't necessary also because the Best Quality and the Current Quality don't have much difference. The Lower Quality has lower quality but the file size will be around 60% of the Current Quality, the same as the Compressed Quality from my friend. The problem is: the time to do it. You know, this is how I do for each render: Use photoshop to remove noise first then save the file in lower quality. Which means a render costs me around 30 seconds. We have more than 5000 renders at the moment. If I have to do it now, it will cost me a lot of time for the Lower Quality. So I can only do the Lower Quality in Part 02 (because to be honest, I already finished 80% of renders for MFF-0.11 to MFF-0.14 of Part 01). At the moment, I will have to depend on the Compressed Quality from my friend. But I still want to ask for your opinions. Because I think the Current Quality and Lower Quality are good enough. But I'm not sure what you see on your PC with bigger and better screens.

Thank you for your patience (I'll upload the links immediately after my friend resend me the links.)

I have to do it on photoshop because the raw renders are in 4K resolution. I have to use photoshop to resize them to 1080p so I also use it to denoise. Plus, I'm not good at software. :D

Sounds like an unnecessarily long process. I'd use batch scripting to denoise with gmic and compress with cwebp, should take a couple seconds per image.
