Optional Dependencies

GFPGAN (Improve Faces)

GFPGAN can be used to improve faces, requiring the model to be placed in the base directory.

ESRGAN (Upscaling)

ESRGAN models such as those from the Model Database, may be placed into the ESRGAN directory. A file will be loaded as a model if it has .pth extension, and it will show up with its name in the UI.

Note: RealESRGAN models are not ESRGAN models, they are not compatible. Do not download RealESRGAN models. Do not place RealESRGAN into the directory with ESRGAN models.
