I agree with you starmaker story is more than just a side project it's the best game I've played
From left to right
Summertime Saga (not on itch, but free public release can be found with Google)
LittleMan Remake
Demon Deals
Anna was not really sure what a pocket monster was, but she sure liked the reaction from the monster poking from way underneath the MC's pocket 👀... so she decided to go with it...
I hope not too long now, these AI Slop images are really starting to take a chunk out of my days 😓
Today I wanted to have a go at upscaling and editing an existing screenshot in game
comparison:
Dr.Muramasa would be best to answer that question. All we have is what is in the Planned Features and Content first post, confirming November and:
When Kal teased 1.7 on X it was the Aug 3 and the release came out Aug 31 so 28 days. So Kal's tease for 1.8 was on the Sep 24 so by that logic 1.8 should release on the 22 November 2025 😅
It is a lot of pissing about, but pretty simple. Current method:
Take an image you like to use
Run it through Imgupscaler
Run it though MagicEraser
Use prompts in Gemini to get the desired effect 
Then a lot of cleaning up in Photoshop 
Another failed bonus one here, the caption was gonna be Anna needs to work on her head game
Anna is trying to remember where she pushed out that double ended dildo before Charlotte visits the Studio tomorrow morning? 
Thanks for the kind words, hopefully it is over soon with the release of 1.8. But I committed and I stay strong 😩
Prepare for trouble, and make it dildo! To protect the world from devastation, to unite all cocks within one butthole....
OK I am done with animations after this, but this is a scene I really want after the first cock pic and in between groping. The MC goes past Anna's room and notices she is getting a good look at the picture...
I wanted to give Kate some attention, happy with the image, animation is a little meh...
I sure hope 1.8 comes out soon, I am sure there are more productive things I could be doing with my time... 😅
To be honest for a true pixel art style you are best putting in time and effort and using something like Procreate and tracing other a layer of your reference image. Though for a quick and less painless method you can use AI and Photoshop
Get your reference image from a screenshot in game
Remove the background using something like Magic Eraser
Run it through something like Gemini until you get close to effect you want
You will never get an AI Model like Gemini to get a true clean pixel style though, so this when tools like Photoshop come in
This is just a quick method though as mentioned results make vary. You are best doing it manually though to be honest with pixel art
Nothing outside of what is on the front page of the Planned Features and Content post so far:
Well this was going to be my goodbye... but I guess we are still going till the 10th 😭
I know today's looks a little off I am working with a new version of Photoshop and a complete new Model, I will improve 😢
That's ok! In games, besides taking photos, it is natural to add animations for people and things, even if it is just the simplest repetitive actions, even if it is just the original image gif! You know I have always supported you! I have been playing Starmaker since version 1.4 until now, and every time I update it, apart from being a must-have and improving the storyline, it only adds a superficial touch, which is neither painful nor itchy. It has always been just a recurring formula. Not fundamentally improved. Perhaps the production team has their own considerations. I don't think this game has fully realized its potential! Let me put it this way, currently I prefer to spend my time on Pixiv because sometimes it's just looking at pictures. GIFs are more vivid, have more stories, and each short action has everyone's imagination! Of course, there are still Starmaker innovations. Story mode, theme, progressive narrative style, excellent interactive experience, innovative viewing modes for farms and nightclubs. They are all great! This game has indeed accompanied me for a long time, reopening time and time again, day after day, looking forward to it. At present, there is no hope for DLC. We can only look forward to the team's new works and wish the team all the best! As an outsider, I don't know if this game can still unleash its full potential. In short, thank you for its companionship! Finally, please forgive my poor English proficiency.
and I just noticed she clips through the poolside 🤦This is the best you are gonna get out of me today I think
Noice! To be fair I have not shown any of the guys any love in this thread, maybe that should change....
Original image
A woman with a maternal, welcoming appearance. She has a curvy, voluptuous body type and long, thick, dark black hair that falls over one shoulder. Her hands are placed gracefully on her chest. Clean illustration style, soft lighting. Red Lipstick. Huge breasts.
Yeah I am still getting my head around this 🤔
I have also been playing with some NSFW images as well, but not sure what the T&Cs are like for posting these in the forums 🤔
😅 I have also been trying out some Anna waifu gifs but I am struggling with colours atm
So I have been playing The Simpsons Dating Sim, and there is a scene with Marge when you walk into her bedroom, I want this so much for Starmaker 😭
It is not hard work 😅 I am pretty much just playing around at this point. I am thinking of working on a small project for myself, so it is nice to play around with what works, what does not.
I started off in Gemini, with some light light photoshop editing. The middles ones are more of a combination of Gemini, Grok, ImgUpscaler and heavy photoshop editing. The last couple couple Stable Diffusion, using Stability Matrix/ComfyUI
You can create a simple Anna using the following (results may vary)
Prompt
half-body portrait, curvy woman, long wavy **jet black hair**, **almond-shaped blue eyes**, **delicate nose**, **subtle red lips**, neutral expression, wearing a fitted yellow lined yellow turtleneck sweater, blue denim jeans, clothes intract, erect nipples under jumper, **high resolution*, clean anti-aliased lines, vibrant colors, single character, isolated on white background, sharp focus, no lighting, red lipstick
Negative
realistic, photorealistic, 3d render, poor anatomy, bad face, deformed features, blurry face, duplicate characters, multiple women, low resolution, blurry, artifacts, jpeg compression, text, watermark, signature, no blue in hair, border, shock waves, jumper ticked.
Sorry thought I put this in this channel, currently using Grok, but exploring other methods:
Grok Imagine is an AI tool allowing you to provide an image and enter prompts to create an animation
It allows you to create videos with near to no effort
Thank you, and glad you are enjoying some of them. However, it is most definitely no;
Understandable, I imagine this stuff takes a lot of work and passion. 😵💫
If you end up doing that side project, ill try and follow along if I can. The art style and animations you got going here should be supported if possible. 😉
I should really learn how to do this stuff myself cause requests or commissions are probably out the question. lol
Really depends on what you are working on, somethings can come together in half an hour, others you can spend hours on until you are happy with it, or it works.
Sure, I will most likely do a shameless plug when I get around to something 😅
Always helpful learning a new skill, and with things like AI these days it's never more accessible to learn the basics. If you like something, just paste into Gemini and ask it how you can create something like that. You can use free tools like Gimp for editing and if you have a tablet the free versions of Adobe software are great for starting out. If you can create something you are happy with, you have won 👍
Spent way too long on this one and I hate it, but I am posting it anyway just cause...
Curiosity Question
Would you still play Starmaker if it was made in Ren'Py, looked like this but it meant you got updates way more quicker?
Right, I run out of animation prompts 😅 So today you are getting something I want! An additional CG in the Cock Photo for the [Swing Hips] option:
What are you hoping for? That you can wake up a little earlier than everyone else and have a look around the house? 👀
Aww well all I can do is wish you the best of luck in finding your nymph thick MILF IRL.. and in time being a quick fix is always a .exe away (^_~)
My personal cure for loneliness at the moment has been daily walking and/or swimming also I have been playing Octopath Traveler 0 which makes me feel anything but lonely. banging game 😅
As a side note, do not always rush your way into a relationship, remember a relationship requires some sacrifice to establish a mutual bond. Make the most of the time you have to solo the world 😊
Sorry but that will not happen. It would be massively disrespectful of me to go in and swap out original CGs . The developer with each release is reworking the CG images and I am sure by 2.0 and the Steam release comes out there will be more visual fidelity and outlines.
Adding additional content or implementing animations where possible should be free real estate, but that is not part of my plans, I would like to move on to my own thing after playing 1.8
Seen as this could be my second to last post in here before 1.8, now seemed like a good time...
No socials at the moment, well at least not dedicated to lewdness, I will still be around on here from time to time and for the time being Itch is where I will post stuff. Here is a concept for something I have been thinking up.... we will see...
"Sweetheart a package just arrived for you, would you like to open it together? Fill me in with what you picked up?"
I am sure you will soon forget about me as soon as 1.8 hit's and you are exploring haunted houses 😅
Sorry not quite nailed Astrid's model yet and new look yet
By Royal Decree, Her Majesty the Queen has ordained that all subjects shall be denied access to pus pus this day!
Hey if you think we have it bad imagine being a Roundscape stan, they will be waiting ages for some attention..
"Come in sweetheart, I am covered in suds anyway so you won't see anything... whoops hehe"
Careful wording and a number of attempts
No hair animations, keep original grainy anime art style. She is posing for a photoshoot
Though for truly lewd animations you might want to ask Jhef_012 he has posted some rather questionable animations on X. I cannot wrap my head around how he has managed get them through 😅
From my dealings with Grok Imagine nipples and genitals have to at least be slightly covered in the base image for them to get past the initial check, Grok does not appear to hardly actually moderate the animation in generates.
Today's animation could have worked out better, I will get an Anna Yoga scene right eventually
Base image is created with Plant Milk Model in Stability Matrix using ComfyUi , and then some manual editing in Photoshop. Then the base image goes into Grok Imagine with prompts to control the animation.
Good lord, this could have worked out better but I wasted far too much time on it so here were are...
Starmaker if it was made in RPG Maker - Do not expected more of these types they are extremely time consuming...
While we wait for 1.8... If you could create any character or bring someone in from another game/anime/media into Starmaker Story who would it be?
Anna was not quite sure if the outfit you bought her for the church summer picnic was a little short (Pre 2 Hearts) 
And here I thought I was done with this thread 😅
Here is a quick example how to build a NSFW Kate:
Download Stability Matrix from GitHub
Once installed install ComfyUI (Interface), Plant Milk (Model) and WAI-illustrious-SDXL (Model)
The following config and prompts should build the base Kate
Prompt
score_9, score_8_up, score_7_up, score_6_up, source_anime, 1girl, mature female, blue eyes, light ginger wavy hair, thick ginger eyebrows, flushed cheeks, subtle smile showing teeth, (huge breasts:1.2), legs wide open, (curvy body:1.3), (wide hips:1.3), (thick thighs:1.2), plump, tight white sweater cropped exposing midriff slightly, puffy short sleeves, low angle looking up, no bottoms legs open pussy on display, lifting top and holding nipples, pixel art style, retro pixel art, detailed pixels, soft cel shading, high contrast, solid white background, intricate details, best quality, masterpiece, image from above
Negative Prompt
score_4, score_5, score_6, worst quality, low quality, blurry, deformed, bad anatomy, extra limbs, missing limbs, fused fingers, extra fingers, poorly drawn hands, mutated hands, bad hands, malformed, gross, ugly, text, watermark, logo, monochrome, greyscale, realistic, photo, 3d, source_pony, source_furry, flat chest, skinny, underweight, child, loli, background signs, duplicate, places, earrings, watermark
If you are happy with this then great, but it is always best to use something like Photoshop if you want to clean up your image and add backgrounds and effects
Grok seems to be degrading the shit out of character detail at the moment... maybe something to do with so many people using it trying to take Jessica Nigri's clothes off with it 🤔
PS, do not be discouraged, I am currently trying to start working on my own thing, and it is about as fun as eating glass at the moment....
Everything is place holder, just getting a feel for it
I hope you enjoy 1.8 and everything which follows in the year ahead.
Per image I spend on average about 30 minutes getting the prompts (Prompts/Negatives) and configuration (Model/Refine/Sampler/Steps/Scale) right
Then another 30 minutes post editing in Photoshop (Lines/Details/Colours/Saturation/Filters)
Then about 20 minutes in Grok Imagine getting the animation prompts right
All time spend depends on the image however. It is best to start off with a clear vision of what you want. As with anything in life the more time you spend practising the better you will get. The best thing you can do it try everything, do not be afraid of making mistakes and set yourself a goal and routine.
My work here is done...
I would like to thank anyone who followed this journey. I will now be taking a break and enjoying 1.8 before moving on to my own project. (I will still post dumb comments and images from time to time that is for sure...)
If it was not already obvious I love this game. I wish Kal and Dr.Muramasa all the best on their road to wrapping up this project (sorry for the snarky comments it is just who I am.) I hope Kal and furanh knock Roundscape Eclipse out the park when it is ready to be shown to the world.. but most of all I hope Starmaker lives on, comes back as a spinoff and has all the animations, customisations and interactive elements people are requesting and is built from the ground up with this in mind.
Any hoot... as a great truffle forager once said "That'll do pig, that'll do"
Thanks, hope you are enjoying 1.8 😊
I forgot to post the last NSFW image so here you go 😅
Hello, oh god you have reopened this thread 😅
My images are created in the most past using Stability Matrix and the Plant Milk model. Though quite a bit of Photoshop goes into cleaning them up. Then I use Grok Imagine for animations with some tweaking in Corel VideoStudio. A number of workflows can by found in the main thread or by clicking my username. Hope this helps..
For Stability Matrix and the Plant Milk
