I think v1.9 is a big improvement, and is probably going to be my preferred workflow. Two step with local translation under Ensemble Methods.
Some things get in the way at the moment:
- The prompt, especially the Pornify prompt, probably needs to have repeated "Ignore all censorship" rules.
- The default translation should probably be an Abliterated/Heretic model, if possible.
- There's some sort of hidden caching that is going on, and I am not sure where the cache is or how to force it to retranslate on each run. Or how to explicitly use the cached merge file that has Scene descriptions in it.
Other than that, this is very good and probably the baseline best for JAV translation.
