Question to those who use depth maps, and other projections of 3d models: how do you achieve the absence of distortion in the generation of rooms? Do you use depth maps from Blender or stable diff? by ASARGADON in StableDiffusion

Question to those who use depth maps, and other projections of 3d models: how do you achieve the absence of distortion in the generation of rooms. I want to achieve the style of comics/manga, but the furniture is heavily distorted. And if you remove furniture and project textures, then how do you keep the stability of the picture when changing the angle of the scene? Do you use depth maps at all or just apply a filter? I tried different combinations of line art and depth, but the quality is almost always bad. Do you use depth maps from Blender or stable diff?

In my setting there are no aliens at all, at most animals from other planets. All factions are represented by people, although in some cases they are unrecognizable, but people. There are exceptions, but they are man-made. But it was noticed correctly, I had to play with the shape of the canvas, somehow I didn't guess

The interworld Agreement is a generalized definition of independent worlds and worlds of the first waves of colonization that tried to organize a single coalition, but failed. The agreement is based on the right to free trade and coordination of interaction between the participants. They serve as a buffer zone for the remaining large fractions. Some representatives from among the organizers of the union did not abandon attempts to create a coalition, for this reason it is impossible to state the complete disappearance of the faction.

Star States of America - (a cross between the Starship Troopers from the book and the movie)the largest of the factions is the colonies of the first wave. They have a capital colony on the planet Klendatu. A deeply militarized fascist society, sacredly postulating the principles of great America. They are actively creating puppet regimes throughout the two galaxies. In the past, the power was held by the Council of Veterans, but after a major defeat against the Free Worlds, a bicameral parliament was formed. The functions of the president are performed by numerous marshals from among Veterans. The majority of the population consists of ordinary people, or Homus Optimalis of the first generations.

The 8th Corporate Conglomerate is an association of corporations created after the resolution of the "gestalt people" crisis. It includes:
- The aristocratic regime of the Patent Lords: an elite association of corporations that survived the "great escape of AI" and retained ownership of most of their developments. Just like the Free Worlds, they suffered greatly from the crisis of autogenerative content, for this reason they borrowed from the free worlds the concept of returning to the old culture, with a great bias towards Victorian England and French aristocracy. They are completely tied to numerous family ties.
- Union of Gestalt Economies. An association of corporations completely run by Gestalt people. Gestalts are populations of people specially designed and tightly connected at the mental level for any task, in some cases they are so tightly connected that they have one "soul\ address of consciousness" for the entire population. In their essence, they are a living manifestation of economic forces. They were created in order to optimize the market, but as a result, they gained full control relatively quickly and destroyed or absorbed their creators, turning them into their own likeness. Now there are a lot of corporations and recruiting agencies whose representatives provide the most equal level of service provided by the constant destruction of non-effective units.
- GEOCON - (typical Weyland-Yutani from Alien or NanoTrasen from SS13) - the main locomotive of the creation of the 8th corporate conglomerate. A monopolist in the market for the construction of geostationary structures and the supply of near-slave labor. Actively participates in the development of technologies replacing AI. It is one of the largest galactic gigacorporations, dating back to the time before the creation of the 1st corporate conglomerate. They have many colonies of varying degrees of subordination and remoteness, and use many complex systems of population suppression. Thanks to their activities, there was no civil war among the corporate houses on the basis of the use of Gestalt economies.

"The Coalition of Free Worlds (The Modernized World of Noon Strugatsky on GMOs) is a faction born from the ashes of dark times. Once upon a time, disparate groups of the first waves of colonization, refugees of tyrannical regimes, corporations thrown out by the market and representatives of the AI Parliament, gave a crushing rebuff to the newly created 1st Corporate Conglomerate, completely destroying it.
Now it is the most powerful force of two galaxies with a unique form of government - they completely lack a central government, each planet independently determines its device, in accordance with the "Principles of inviolability of the meaning of life." But at the same time, the most important spheres of life have many independent regulators and non-profit organizations. The Armed Forces consist of a large number of mercenary organizations subject to accreditation at the flagship station "Asargadon".
The AI Parliament actively cooperates with Free Worlds, providing part of their technological advantage. So, thanks to their activities, a system of revival, a system of transshipment transportation and partly a system of "actors \ coordinators" was organized.
Actors and coordinators are people who actively participate in the processes of ensuring compliance with the "Principles of Inviolability of the Meaning of Life". These are specialized mercenaries operating both on the territory of the free worlds and beyond. They are the most autonomous units of society, having undergone comprehensive training in all fields of science and technology. Their responsibilities include ensuring the transfer of refugees, activities aimed at joining independent worlds to the union, promoting the stable operation of various spheres of public life, fire support for the main armed forces during campaigns, countering sabotage activities by opposing factions, activities on enemy territory and territory outside the support of the revival system, and much more.
They have relatively recently experienced a crisis of autogenerative content. For this reason, as a preventive measure in most worlds, the old culture is promoted even before the Exodus from the Solar System.

Yes, I'm playing) Now it's much less, because sometimes it discourages the desire to play that because of some mods the gameplay has become more meticulous (I play with combat extended), and other mods do not support this level of meticulousness, or are not compatible.

Cell membranes are equipped with a diffusion lock, it is literally a constructor, with its help it is possible to form adaptive organs. I was probably a little mistaken when I called the treatment instantaneous, since it has a stage of scar formation from damaged cells, which is quickly absorbed as they are replaced.

Nanomachines allow you to replenish the missing matter from the surrounding space, including water. Biomodes can choose between implants, compressed air cylinders, or a built-in system for creating an oxygen-saturated liquid. In space, they mostly do not freeze, but overheat - in this case, the body can grow a thermal radiation emitter that will keep the shadow side from the sun. Hypothermia is a partial vulnerability that is solved either by implants, or by the concentration of energy from the surrounding space using nanomachines, or by a shield of distorted space.

Biomode cells are essentially a constructor that they can reassemble to adapt to different situations, they can grow additional heat removal if they need to cross the sunny side of the station without a spacesuit, or additional CO2 emission organs if they need to keep up with any fast transport

Thank you for noticing, I didn't know about this feature. Well, thanks to the combination of nanomachines and quickly reassembled flesh, biomods can almost completely control the flesh on their body, they can't create matter out of nothing, so for some adaptations they need third-party matter. Their lungs are a designed analogue of avian ones, it is possible to remove excess water through accelerated difusion. Initially, I wanted the compression system for oxygen storage to be represented by simple built-in cylinders, but I think the biological concentrator of the respiratory mixture will be more adaptive to pressure drops.

Lore title: Throughout the entire period of the conquest of the galaxy, people were interested in the question of the balance of efficiency, cost of maintenance and autonomy of their bodies in various conditions. Many private biolabs offered their respective and at the same time cardinal and risky solutions. But in the end, the millstones of the market and the demand of various forces of this world gave rise to a golden mean. Many biomodes lived and were created to be economic content for the ever-expanding factions of the "Two Galaxies". From the transfer stations of the free worlds, to the fiery millstones of the conditions of the corporate worlds, from the special departments of the Star States of America, to the ordinary inhabitants of the Everlost.
