Topaz Gigapixel 7 release notes:
For Standard and High Fidelity v2 are have changed the following:
- For Standard we’ve improved the deblur consistency (blurry patch issue)
- For High Fidelity we’ve improved the grain preserving consistency for low denoise/remove jpeg sliders
- For use cases requiring keeping original noise/grain, select this model and tune down the two sliders.
- For High Fidelity we’ve fixed the tile blending artifacts
- For both models we’ve fixed the tile artifacts on Apple Silicon Mac’s Neural Engine
- In Photo we have an option to turn off Neural Engine but it will slow down processing
- For quality in general, the models should be more generative
Important notes:
- All preferences will be reset when updating to this version! Make sure to re-check your preferences (and check out the new ones too).
- It is expected that you will need to re-authenticate with the updated version on first launch.
- On first run models that were updated will re-download automatically. On subsequent runs if we detect invalid models it should auto re-download them.
- Mac: The new minimum OS version is 11.0 (Big Sur). Due to the way the old in-app updater works, you may be offered an update while not on Big Sur.
Major changes:
- Updated AI engine which should allow better compatibility and faster processing
- Added Standard and High Fidelity v2 models
- These models will eventually replace v1 models in time. If you have quality issues, please let us know.
- Refreshed the UI with new design and controls
- Updated preferences with new options
- Note: This will fully reset your preferences
Notable additions:
- Added panning and pinch to zoom gestures in preview
- Added updated RAW preview handling (should be closer to Photo AI)
- Added ability to capture before/after in split and side by side views
- Added ability to move the file list up and down via dragging
- Note: There is a known issue where removing/adding images causes it to snap back to the default position
- Changed logic for selections
- Changed controls to show mixed states if multiple images with different values are selected
