Basic usage instruction: https://i.imgur.com/w7LkId2.jpg
'whole_face' requires skill in Adobe After Effects.
For using whole_face you have to extract whole_face's by using
4) data_src extract whole_face
and
5) data_dst extract whole_face
Images will be extracted in 512 resolution, so they can be used for regular full_face's and half_face's.
'whole_face' covers whole area of face include forehead in training square,
but training mask is still 'full_face'
therefore it requires manual final masking and composing in Adobe After Effects.
added option 'masked_training'
This option is available only for 'whole_face' type.
Default is ON.
Masked training clips training area to full_face mask,
thus network will train the faces properly.
When the face is trained enough, disable this option to train all area of the frame.
Merge with 'raw-rgb' mode, then use Adobe After Effects to manually mask, tune color, and compose whole face include forehead.
added option Eyes priority (y/n)
fix eye problems during training ( especially on HD architectures )
by forcing the neural network to train eyes with higher priority

It does not guarantee the right eye direction.
SAEHD:
added new option
GAN power 0.0 .. 10.0
Train the network in Generative Adversarial manner.
Forces the neural network to learn small details of the face.
You can enable/disable this option at any time,
but better to enable it when the network is trained enough.
Typical value is 1.0
GAN power with pretrain mode will not work.
Example of enabling GAN on 81k iters +5k iters

dfhd: default Decoder dimensions are now 48
the preview for 256 res is now correctly displayed
fixed model naming/renaming/removing
Improvements for those involved in post-processing in AfterEffects:
Codec is reverted back to x264 in order to properly use in AfterEffects and video players.
Merger now always outputs the mask to workspace\data_dst\merged_mask
removed raw modes except raw-rgb
raw-rgb mode now outputs selected face mask_mode (before square mask)
'export alpha mask' button is replaced by 'show alpha mask'.
You can view the alpha mask without recompute the frames.
8) 'merged *.bat' now also output 'result_mask.' video file.
8) 'merged lossless' now uses x264 lossless codec (before PNG codec)
result_mask video file is always lossless.
Thus you can use result_mask video file as mask layer in the AfterEffects.
