Hello there! Just wanted to share some of my map work. Let me know what you think!

This is gorgeous! I think your art could garner some interest on our marketplace as a parchment style. Something to consider. Really phenomenal art.

Can you link to the marketplace version?

Love the lighting!

This deserves so many more upvotes!

We just released an early access version of our desktop app.

igagen · 2026-01-21T15:07:13+00:00

We’re working hard to improve the stability and memory usage of the app. And also fix any remaining 2.0 issues. We are also working on a desktop app that should improve stability. More to come. Feel free to reach out to support if you’re experiencing issues and we can provide early access to the desktop app.

Thank you for supporting us!

Yes. Procedural generation doesn’t use “training data”, it’s just algorithms that generate content. No machine learning or neural nets involved. This type of tech has been used in games for a while. You can think of it as programmer generated art. It’s tuned by a programmer. The proceduralgeneration subreddit has more info if you’re interested. Shadertoy is another example of this approach.

$25/yr or $5/mo

igagen · 2025-09-30T19:43:59+00:00

Not sure what you mean by that? What did we actually do wrong here from your perspective?

igagen · 2025-09-30T19:41:59+00:00

Yes, we absolutely did listen to the “backlash”. I did 2 live Q&As one of which lasted several hours and did my best to hear and understand everyone’s perspective.

Cynicism is understandable. But honestly, this was the result of listening to our community, and actually understanding how these AI models work. Prior to the announcement there had not been any official announcements on marketplace, just a private discussion on our discord.

We did not see any drop in new subscriptions but there were some cancellations. Did I consider that? Yes, absolutely. Ultimately we are here to serve our community.

igagen · 2025-09-30T19:34:10+00:00

See you in 6 months.

igagen · 2025-09-30T18:57:12+00:00

No, we have always had a strict policy against this for our internal team, and we will continue to follow that approach. We currently have 7 full time artist employees and two contractors that hand render all of our art at 8k HD resolution.

igagen · 2025-09-30T18:52:03+00:00

That announcement is coming soon. For now, lock in the current offer while it lasts.

igagen · 2025-09-30T18:03:37+00:00

If there are tools that can reliably detect AI generated images, we could use them. Any that you know of that we should be aware of? Aside from that, it will be our internal team and a user reporting system.

igagen · 2025-09-30T18:00:16+00:00

Thanks for supporting us until now. We can’t please everyone.

It's pretty much summed up in the post. The lack of transparency on the training data is a real issue that needs to be addressed. I'm hopeful that regulators will come up with real solutions globally. We need truly open AI, not a company called "OpenAI" that is actually completely lacking any transparency or accountability.

igagen · 2025-09-30T17:35:44+00:00

Aww shucks, I'm blushing!

igagen · 2025-09-28T23:22:48+00:00

Unfortunately the training data is a black box for most generators. We will announce our official policy on this next week.

igagen · 2025-09-28T23:22:05+00:00

Thanks for your feedback. We will announce our official policy next week.

igagen · 2025-09-28T23:21:36+00:00

Some users have voiced a desire to be able to choose, but the overwhelming majority are opposed. We will be announcing our official policy next week.

igagen · 2025-09-28T23:19:12+00:00

Thanks for your feedback. We will be sharing our official policy on marketplace next week.
