Hi, love your work. Some of the rare acceptable cases of AI usage imo. Just wondering, is it possible to expand these textures? I mean making them 4096x4096 with the same texture so it would be repeating even less? I am not suggesting or asking that you should do it, just wondering if it is doable? I don't really know how to.

Hi. Thanks=)
As far as I know, you can't do that. I mean, AI-models mostly trained for 1024 resolution, and then you upscale generated textures to 2048. And then you make them seamless, because upscaling messing with the seams. After it done, you can't just upscale and make some minor changes, you'd need to redo seams and all the maps.

As for the making 4096 from scratch, when you ask AI to generate patterns of lesser scale, nothing happens. It doesn't understand=( It has kinda of DPI or something, so to scale a pattern you need to switch to 2048 resolution, and AI just bad at that resolution. And, of course, you'd need to upscale that image to 4096. And even if you've managed to make a decent small scale pattern in 1024, you need to upscale to 4096, which is troubling itself.

So, at this point, I can see only one solution: generate some normal 1024 texture, then make some variations of that texture using AI (it can do that), stitch 4 textures together to get 2048, upscale to 4096, and make it seamless (that would be twice an amount of job).

As to my taste, a better solution would be just to make a lot of similar textures to mix them. That's what I do in the recent packs.

Though, I will try to do 4096=) I'm interested myself.

Would be great to see the results of your experiments. Good luck and thank you.
