word bro, i mean just look at this: disgusting AI art which DC would have to redraw again (can't fap to this)

View attachment 4461796

vs. DC's custom handdrawn perfection he literally worked on for 7 hours the same day right after he was finished streaming

The fact that you only ever bring up that one scene with Jenny kind of torpedoes your whole argument. You should give more examples.

AI doesn't provide much advantage to DC for the moment. The current quality is perhaps 85% of DC's original work. AI provides an advantage to someone who doesn't know how to draw, as they can suddenly produce images near DC's art quality with no involved skills. It's perfect for fan art.

That being said, the current Summertime Saga AI art that you see around isn't the best that AI can do. The model people are using, Pony trained on sdxl, doesn't follow prompt well. Also, the lora, the part of the model that was trained on Summertime Saga's images, isn't perfect for various reason. Future models, however, will increase the quality of the artwork, including prompt adherence. Eventually, AI images will look authentic and be capable of replacing what DC produces. The same is true with the rest of the game, AI will be capable of generating the story and game itself. At that time, we'll essentially have an infinite Summertime Saga.

As a college-level English instructor, this may be true several years from now. May.

And it's been the coding and the posing of the game which has been the major bottleneck for nearly the past 4 years - not DC drawing the art. We're only seeing Debbie's art revamped at this point because coding and posing is behind and has created an opportunity for DC to focus on this revision. Had coding and posing been able to keep up with the art, we'd be having completely different conversations right now.

In the end, while AI could "speed up" the process - it will still require a lot of human interaction for the content to make sense, be adequate, maintain continuity, and be optimized. Some might think this should mean content could come faster - but what it would likely mean is that developers like DC would have the opportunity to redesign previous work to add in details they wanted in the past, but didn't have time or ability to produce. Also, developers would add in more non-lewd content to make stories more streamlined and cohesive.

This community looks like a dumpster fire! Either way, I'm really confused. I downloaded the game and there's practically zero content. Do I have to download the old version or something?

Holy mother of tits and bacon, that's awful!
I thought they looked pretty good, and the fan thread folks seemed to like them. Do you just have an AI hate boner or did you have an actual problem with the images?

the hands and eyes and feet are awful, the rest is passable enough.
Yeah that's pretty typical for AI, I really just play with settings and build a prompt. Not like we're getting any new Summertime Saga content from the actual developer for at least a few years so thought I'd throw some stuff out there. I did say it was "shit".

I have many problems with them; the hands, fingers, the faces, the details.

I mean, body, tits, etc are good, but for someone who work in a field with a lot of AI now, I always spot how bad they are.

There are some issues in my run. When I move or click the mouse, the background occasionally flashes. It hurts my eyes a lot. How do I solve this issue? There was no such problem when I played this game 1 year ago.

The AI stuff tends has big problems with consistency, on top of being horrible ethically. The assets used to create it are stolen from people without their consent. It's merely easy to justify because it obfuscates the fact beneath so many layers of separation. Nobody can really stop you from doing it for fun, that's on you, but to actually suggest it should be used seriously to replace the actual artist doing the work because you just want your porn game is ridiculous.

Plus, it's not copyrightable, which brings up a bunch of legal concerns regarding the IP.

All the games on here that use AI can have their images swiped wholesale by another dev and they legally can't do shit about it.

So, it's self sabotaging, its quality is dubious, its got a host of ethical problems, and its insulting to suggest to an artist who enjoys making art to just let the machine do it for them. And for what? Just so you can get a sea of samey yet inconsistent images of your favorite characters fucking? I'm not gonna take you serious bro, that shit is buns

Try a different graphics accelerator/renderer.
Hit shift + G in game i believe.

i could have also posted the mia one when you meet her the first time you go to school or various debbie pics. pretty much everytime DC doesn't draw his characters from the front it looks weird and sometimes like not the same character or in the case of jenny like some eldritch abomination that is wearing her skin
