      another try with midjourney wasn't as good as ChatGPT

      jo3d3_render_this_base_image_without_changing_any_detail_or_m_a40e8811-4de9-44db-bcf0-76ed8d455d51_0.png

      to many changes in geometry. Still one of the main issues in AI.
      this one was the best out of 12 results

          @jo-ke said in Playing arround with Sketchup diffusion:

          "render this base image without changing any detail or moving features etc. Ultra realistic with neutral light"

          The examples a bit of a revelation to me.
          Thanks for sharing the prompt.

                  That nailed it. Did you prompt for the Palm Trees? I heard Nano Banana was pretty good. This has none of the issues your normally get with AI image generation. In particular the windows on buildings.

                    this AI is by far the best I've seen.

                    this took me one minute:

                    Promt:
                    "turn this sketch of a tramway into a photorealistic atmosphearic image with natural light and reflections on surface, no outlines, tramway driving on rails in the city of Mannheim, sunny waeather, do not change geometrie of the tram"

                        Sketchup diffusion seems to be so old fashioned. Google is the absolute winner!

                          The rate of improvement is staggering. Would like to see the heat generated by the AI infrastructure utilised better.

                            I am trying the new version of sketchup diffusion

                            what should I say. It is definitly not there, where it could be.

                            I made a model of my house in SU:

                            su-raw-weisenheim001.jpg

                            this is the result of the new Sketchup diffusion after 5 mintues:

                            su-diff-weisenheim002.png

                            and this is the result in Nano Banana after 2 minutes:

                            su-nano-Generated Image September 26, 2025 - 10_19AM.png

                            Nano Banano ist more acurat regarding geometrie , colors and details.

                                Did you see its not embedded in Photoshop. They did a really good integration.

                                        Nice work mate, Scares the hell out of me though. All those years of learning how to render down the drain. Makes me a bit sad

                                          I have to agree, some folk have great results but frankly it is a whole 'nuther story and tbh, not one I want a part in and the loss of skill leading to another lost skillset is quite unsettling. I suppose that is the definition of progress. As long as we do not evolve into cabbage patch folk from the outer limits. Shades of this? https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0244290/
