so it's a front-end for Intel Open Denoiser and Imagemagick-convert

it can process one image or a sequence of numbered images ( videos! )

new for 2021 - Mac Compatibility

January 19th 2021 15:15 the file type for imagemagick and Intel Open Denoise was changed from (*.exe) to "Any File" for MAC issues with opendenoise which is extensionless

January 21st 2021 mcjDenoise2021ForMacs

there's a new version of mcjDenoise, my Daz Script that lets you use Intel Open Denoise to A.I.-Denoise your renders, for now i only have an antique macbook so apparently i cant run openDenoise, but your modern macs should , there's also the version for PCs https://sites.google.com/site/mcasualsdazscripts9/mcjdenoise

i had to figure out the not-well-documented execute-permissions of Daz Scripts, then use the .command extension then avoid quotation marks when running that .command file

    i will repair it

    i probably created this variable, changed its name, then since i didnt exit Daz Studio, Daz Studio  didnt see a problem about this variable 

    ok i found the problem ... updating in 5 minutes ...

    ah i see it mentioned here indeed

    https://www.foxrenderfarm.com/share/post-id-1584

    i also have a project for a trainable neural-net plugin for daz studio i want to make, the Intel and Nvidia denoisers are trained neural nets

    mine could be trained for anything, animating self-driving cars or actors

    i worked on that project a bit, trying different libraries but didnt complete that yet

    but but i did make a shallow-neural-network script+app here: https://sites.google.com/site/mcasualsdazscripts9/mcjnn

    Version 3 has a new time saving option

    https://www.deviantart.com/mcasual/art/version-3-of-mcjDenoise-802746178

    version 3 of mcjDenoise can auto-name the output image

    so if input noisy image is c:\pics\InspectorGabrielleIsNotAmused.jpg, the output file will be named c:\pics\InspectorGabrielleIsNotAmused_out.jpg

    I wonder why this is not just integrated into daz studio? It would save alot of people time rendering iray.

  • mCasualmCasual Posts: 4,607
    well in daz studio 4.11 the one released a week ago, there's a post render denoiser by nVIdia/daz3d it may be only for CUDA/gpu ... i dont know if it works on amd ati cards and CPUs i didnt seriously test it

    Yeah, I know>>> I wanted the independent one from Intel. Works better!!! The internal nvidia one slows down render and does not work as well!  Thank you for your hard work this works great when I'm done with a render I just run it thru your script and presto it's done. I also made it part of my top custom actions script menu.

    The virtues of cherry ice cream crystals

    Peachy finds it cute that Gabrielle thinks the "cherry ice cream crystals" can "activate her DNA" and generate "3D body upgrades". Well it's cute but it's also true.

    I'm trying to figure out how to install Intel's denoiser. The instructions are very confusing.

    You just have to unzip it somewhere and point the script to its location.

    Speaking of ImageMagik, what's a good setting for the converter to cut down the size of the denoised image? I usually get around 1.5x the original file size if the source is a PNG.

  • Silver DolphinSilver Dolphin Posts: 1,608

    I just use Photoshop or GIMP for that.

    Looks good. Does it run on a Mac? 

    Current Macs are Intel, but they aren't Windows.

  • FirePro9FirePro9 Posts: 456

    Looks like the ImageMagicK executable has changed from convert.exe to magick.exe (win64).

  • willstevenswillstevens Posts: 6

    I couldn't find convert.exe either but if you tick the box that says install legacy components when you first instal ImageMagicK it will be there.

  • mCasualmCasual Posts: 4,607

    one could install a version of imagemagick in a folder anywhere

    and use the convert.exe in there for the needs of this daz script

    i downloaded the imagemagick installer from here

    https://imagemagick.org/download/binaries/

    and installed it in f:\\imagemagick69105 so i can remember the version

    i unselected the extras, this imagemagick will be for mcjDenoiser

     I'm a lazy bum and just use the portable version of ImageMagick.

    This and the LUT tool are greatly appreciated, as are all of your gifts.

    Maybe it's time for some more of us to kick some beer money your way via paypal, eh?

    So, how about it folks, this week, rather than buy another fastgrab item that you'll probably never use. Kick a few bucks to mCasual at the link at the bottom of this freebie page:

      https://sites.google.com/site/mcasualsdazscripts9/mcjdenoise

    It feels really good to do so, and the effort, wit, and wisdom mCasual shares for free is amazing - just look at all of the stuff on his site!

    (thanks mCasual!)
