By default it uses Gemini for text, image, and text-to-speech generation. When no explicit style is provided, it randomly chooses between photorealistic, classic comic, rubber-hose cartoon, 90s action, manga, cyberpunk, golden-age superhero, horror, and watercolor storybook style families. It also supports a manual prompt mode for generating a single image directly from a prompt, without the vocabulary/story pipeline. @@ -127,7 +127,7 @@ Useful flags: - `--narrator-voice` picks the Gemini narration voice - `--text-provider`, `--image-provider`, `--tts-provider` override provider names - `--text-model`, `--image-model`, `--image-text-model`, `--tts-model` override model IDs -- `--ultra-realistic` and `--no-ultra-realistic` control the rendering mode for both story and manual prompt mode +- `--ultra-realistic` and `--no-ultra-realistic` force photorealistic or classic comic rendering; without either flag ComicForge randomly chooses from the configured style families - `--version` prints the application version Example: @@ -149,6 +149,6 @@ For manual prompt mode: comicforge --prompt "a robot reading a newspaper" --output out --slug manual-robot ``` -This writes a single image to `out/comics/assets/manual-robot/prompt.png`. +This writes a single image to `out/comics/assets/manual-robot/prompt.png`.
