Thinking about writing a newbie guide

Post by abigflea »

I've been watching this board and the discord daily for the last few weeks while I'm learning all these concepts myself.
The guides are excellent. I've read through them several times , especially when i'm stuck.
I have caught up pretty well, although I was in commercial hardware solutions for 15 years (and been out that long).
Was thinking I would write a VERY newbie guide, pointing out my pitfalls and HEAVILY referencing the main guide (because its all there ).
If I find the time, would that be welcome?

:o I dunno what I'm doing :shock:

Yes, we welcome any guides you want to make. People keep asking for a video guide if that sounds doable, we'd appreciate it. Even if it's text, it may be helpful.

Oh it would be text with image examples.
but for the most part the existing guide is quite informative, just easy to overlook/misinterpret one little detail and you've made a mass. That's reading comprehension with your not exactly familiar.
I didn't 100% "get" alignments 100% for a bout a week . Kept asking myself why it worked THAT way.
When/If the boredom kicks in again, I might make a rough draft.

It might be to big of a task for your guide, but I would absolutely love to see the same deepfake made over and over again like 4 times, all the settings the same, even the run time, but the only difference being the trainer used.

Actually doing that myself just to get a feel for how different models and mask work.
Very time-intensive but since I work 12-hour shifts I can at least get the training done .
Mainly just original, dfl-sae , dlight, and unbalanced. 8gb only goes so far

Also got to figure out why time lapse doesn't want to work for me odd little hiccup there.
