SuperRes image quality should generally be slightly better than in the official v0.88.16 build, furthermore I've added an anti-ringing filter which should noticeably reduce ringing artifacts introduced by SuperRes. I hope that the anti-ringing filter will allow us to use algo 2, which is my favorite algorithm, but didn't work well due to the added ringing artifacts in v0.88.16.
What can I say? It's amazing. Even 10 passes don't ruin the image to my personal taste. It's definitely not what I'd use, though.

- high: strength=1.0; passes=2
- ultra: strength=1.0; passes=4

Would like to have your feedback about this. If you believe that the above settings are a totally bad idea, please let me know. Ideally with a small sample which shows that other settings work much better. Or if you like my settings, please let me know, too. Thanks!
Either these or just a "passes" option. "High" settings is what I've been using since .16
I always disliked sharpening in general, but this new SuperRes does wonders combined with S-XBR
