DeepEnhancer

[djilayeden]

Hi Dan,

I’ve just completed a new test today, trying to faithfully reproduce Fred’s 2017 script — the one he described in detail on Doom9 but never published fully.

I used the same filter chain as he mentioned:

RemoveDirtSMC()

GamMac()

DePanStabilize()

Several passes of Tweak() (with starthue and endhue) to isolate specific color bands


McDegrainSharp()

And his sharpening technique: UnsharpMask, blur, UnsharpMask again, then Sharpen()

The goal was to stay as close as possible to Fred's 2017 workflow.
Let me know what you think of the results — I’ll be happy to refine it further based on your suggestions.

Best regards,
Nass
