Convert models from GoldSource engine to the Source engine with AI. This utility converts GoldSource engine models to Source engine models. A feature of this utility is the ability to improve the quality of textures of models using Upscaling, deblurring, and normal map generating. All operations to improve the quality of textures are performed by neural networks. To improve the quality of the texture, it is first Upscaled using RealESRGAN. The user can select scaling factor: x2, x4 or x8. After the Upscaling procedure, the texture is deblured using the Scale-recurrent Network for Deep Image Deblurring. An example of a processed texture is shown in the following image (parameters used: scaling-factor = 4 and deblur iterations = 4) besides upscaling and debluring the utility also generates normal maps for each texture. This is implemented using the DeepBump by HugoTiny model. Examples of normal maps are shown in the following images.
