I'll test....
If someone else too, be sure that antykat V5 is set in lib patcher.

@godfather01020
Did you saved your XML with setup the V5 in lib, because for me google lib is chosen in your XML?
Remove the ".zip" extension from this file because xda doesn't allow putting ".so" and put it in the libs folder, the XML should automatically take the lib.

Configs (xml + lib) for Redmi Note 10 Pro and LMC8.4 R15.

Changes

Improved all cameras:
- new, rebuilt lib
- some changes in the xml

About the configs

✅ Very detailed photos without over sharpness from all cameras
✅ Close to real colours from Main camera
✅ Natural looking photos
✅ Sat 1 and Sat 2 modes for more saturated and contrasted photos from Main camera
✅ Upscaling is set to x2 for all cameras
✅ Turn on AWB in Night Sight mode to get accurate colours

Xml:


❗The xml must be used with my v8.Natural lib (link below):

https://drive.google.com/file/d/18w3yon_pAEt5T0bfC9aLklsybpiCaXEP/view?usp=drivesdk

LMC apk:


How to use the xml and the lib

1. Put the lib into folder:
/LMC8.4/libs
2. Put the xml into folder:
/LMC8.4
3. Double tap at the black area between shutter button and gallery to load the xml.
The lib is loaded automatically by the xml, if the lib is in right folder.

Which one do you prefer?
Lmc alisa r15 is nice one
Also the stark hdr++ one is for gcam8.1
4pda human skintone is good for skintone

Pixelgodx3 is in testing:
Changelog:
1. Brighter photos even with exposure compensation off.the exposure compensation sometimes used to overhighlight in bright areas so this version don't have that problem
2. Increase in quality (less noise and iso )using hdr++ instead of hdrnet

Could you please edit that xml post and tell which xml is for which gcams. As you already told there is atleast one xml for gcam 8.1
Most of them are for lmc8.4 r15 excluding starkhdr++. I think the 9th one is April fool's joke that I fell for in telegram.(see size is also 1mb).

As said earlier I extracted these xmls from various sources. I keep it to merge all xml and improve.

Redmi Note 10 Pro
The second one is nice one
Also the stark hdr++ one is for gcam8.1
First one is good for skintone

1. Brighter photos even with exposure compensation off.the exposure compensation sometimes used to overhighlight in bright areas so this version don't have that problem
2. Increase in quality (less noise and iso )using hdr++ instead of hdrnet
The second one based on which xml? I can confirm that 5 xmls are based on my xml with different name, anyway they tweaked some parameters according to there taste but atleast they should keep original name.

I almost forgot this "alisa xml" requires this attached lib in lmc8.4 r15 otherwise will not produce best result. People say this produces the best natural details.(remove the .zip extension from the lib before putting)

Did some great macros today with the antykat setting. Very pleased with that great work under heavy sunny conditions on that wall! Thx

Hi guys
The XDA team decides to allow separated gcam threads .
Here's the separated AGC thread

Honestly I don't think another thread is necessary. It would just make a Hassel to go back and fourth to two different threads for the same thing. After all it's a gcam.

    BSG8.7_Arcide_DarkxStaar_v2.so
    . slightly adjusted sabre sharp values
    . Other fix

    BSG8.7_Arcide_DarkxStaar_v2_S.so
    .sabre 1 as default
    .other fix

    If you know what to tweak in additional settings then enable and tweak according to your need (sharpness/luma/HDR range)
    Fixed garlands in BSG8.7 without loosing any details , i dont claim that those will never appear but in my limited test compared to my 8.4 xml and intro555 xml those are less, they will appear in some conditions but less compared to 8.4 and 8.1
    (Above intro555 BSG8.1 below BSG8.7 Lib+xml)

    After further testing, I prefer LT7B with 100% jpg quality and 2x upscaling. It is really great. I also enabled focus tracking. @Laptapper

    No. Do more testing.
    I have seen many testing images and it is still my opinion that upscaling is not worthy.

    Yes it maybe gives little more details but it's so minor improve.

    Another gcam settings to improve picture quality is more important than upscaling.

    20220901 Thread cleaned

    In case of deleted files from users in my editable folder, test ended here.




    I've followed the moderator suggestion about the sharing and the XDA rules, although I don't like to share with non XDA members.

    This first post is now with a link to GDrive with shared xmls and libs
    I've adjusted this folder that everyone can modify files inside.
    Please don't delete files, otherwise the test with the editable shared folder ends.

    My final final KAIRU XML (?)

    This might just be my very last XML if no problems are found. (For LMC R12 Fix)

    Changelog:
    Reduced the green tint on low-light (if it still persists then turn on AWB).

    Sharper and reveals even more details.
    Tuned the Wide camera and also fixed the distortion by changing the interface model, turns out it fixes the distortion only after capturing the image.

    Added a subtle but very nice beauty mode "✨". It is very nice especially on portrait shots / human shots because it hides a bit of the imperfections (but not too much like what a TikTok filter would). And has the same color profile as the Main lens. I also recommend this mode for a very good low-light or maybe even night pictures because it has very low noise

    Please give it a try!

    After a closer look at the thread, I find it is totally against XDA's standing on the way of sharing.
    As a forum user for years, I spent 20 minutes on this thread back and forth, trying to find the direct links to download files but repeatedly encounter such words "xx is in invitation group" and it leads me to nowhere.
    The whole thread will remain closed until I removed all off topic posts about "invitation group". And I believe this may take a few days.

    TL;DR: all sharing must be happening on XDA or use XDA as major platform

    Wall of Text

    This thread has been cleaned from off topic posts. You may notice that in total about 4 pages of posts are gone (147 vs 143).

    As posted by some users here, this is one of the largesst gcam thread on XDA and the only thread existing for gcam discussion for this device. Unfortunately, it is not very friendly to new gcam users. A newbie, like myself :p, would be 99.5% lost during browsering this thread and the files people talking about were nowhere to find. This must stop.

    I understand a developer's feeling of getting recognization, fulfilled, being needed, helpful, and credited. It is a great achievement to let your hard work to be used by many others. To a developer, getting feedback for sure is a critical way to improve the work. In this thread, I see many users are sharing their work and providiing feedback to each other, not only the main developer here, but each other. I belive in this gcam thread, everyone can develop and you are your own developer. Kudos to every "developers" here. :)

    I also understand the feeling of "losing your work" when you posted it but no one cares or use it without feedback, it feels like "stealing" or "underappreciated". But I believe that is only a tiny portion of users, especially on XDA. And the background reason also varies: some users are new to this development or shy to share or just want to cherry pick the best for themselves. XDA is on internet, and on internet, we see all kinds of people like in your work, in your life. We accept the fact that users are not all perfect but to see the beauty in it: sharing the work with others.

    From now on, please share the xml files directly on XDA. And for OP @Laptapper , I highly suggest you update the first post to include a repo or filehost or any format of summary you like to give others an overview of current progress. For example, you could release a monthly version and then continue ongoing test with users. This is just my suggestion and you have every right to select the way of sharing.

    In the end, I want to emphasize one point:
    all sharing must be happening on XDA or use XDA as major platform. Otherwise it is not allowed by our rules and content will be removed.


    Thanks for reading this wall of text. Hope you all have a good time developing! :D

    Sharing my personal config, arrived at after months of testing and tweaking:
    - For BSG {Mod edit: Telegram reference removed. Oswald Boelcke, Senior Moderator}, no library needed
    - Tested on M2101K6G (sweet)
    - Based on {Mod edit: Telegram reference removed. Oswald Boelcke, Senior Moderator} (heavily tweaked for reduced noise, more accurate colours, better dynamic range)

    - All cameras configured (main, ultrawide, macro, front)
    Includes stabilised 4k video recording for all cameras (though GCam stabilisation isn't as good as on stock MIUI app)​
    - Photos are sharp and detailed, while still looking natural (no oversharpening halos etc)
    - Colours are natural and accurate but more punchy than stock (especially in low light)

    If you prefer instant photos you can turn off HDR+ Enhanced, but I recommend keeping it on as it gives you improved noise management in main cam, better preserved highlights in ultrawide, and more detail in macro/front at the cost of ~1 sec shutter time. Test for yourself if it's worth it.

    ISSUES:
    - No distortion correction in ultrawide
    - In some cases Night Sight photos may be more noisy than optimal
    - Viewfinder may get too dark to see well at night, you can turn on OpenGL preview to fix this

    This is a work in progress, so let me know what you think!

    hi guys
    this is the SACHISK MIXED xml with main lens and front cam from KAIRU FINAL -0-.
    in other words, all of Kairu's main lens natural and definition settings entered into Sachisk's XML. So we have the main camera from Kairu, and the rest (ultrawide lens and video recorder and other configs) from Sachisk. for LMC 8.4 x9s.

    i could not change AWB settings, so the main camera has all the settings from Kairu without AWB. AWB settings from Sachisk.


    from my last 3 2 and a half months, a LMC x9s is really quite stable, and an XML SACHISK MIXED presented the best compromise between functionality and good quality so far. I decided to mix the best of Kairu with the best of Sachisk according to my opinion.
