^ As in the title - when attempting to run the app I'm getting the above error.
.NET is definitely installed. Just in case I updated it and restarted my PC, but it failed to resolve the issue. Any tips? :)
AI Art using Stable Diffusion on your own PC · By
Thank you for the fast reply (and sorry for the belated one on my side; it was a busy day at work).
I don't mind waiting; I know the development process can be hell! I bought it to be able to prototype art for my own hobby game (I draw my own art in the style that Stable Diffusion isn't good at yet, but AI art is fantastic for trying out ideas/color schemes and getting rid of art block). I also use Stable Horde (but feel bad leeching of their servers too much, haha) and Midjourney (but the number of generations is rather low on the lowest subscription levels).
As sadly I don't expect having too much free time this week, the wait is not going to be a problem for me ;) Good luck!
That’s great to hear we are very grateful for your patience and understanding.
The current build (which is self-contained, I won’t go into the details but will say that self-contained builds should not ask for a dotnet installation) I am able to install on a PC that has absolutely no .NET (core or otherwise) installed.
A separate test machine however I have gotten into the same state YOUR computer is in.
That is: I am unable to install properly and get the error message. I will post more details shortly.
Great news, this image is from the test machine that was working incorrectly
I was able to install and run the app. I need to test a couple more things and then I will post this update along with updated instructions. If it fails to run for you, I have yet another potential solution, but I will go into that only if needed.
We will update here once the new build is live (should be around 30 minutes)

And heeey, actually installing the SDKs got the application to launch:
Unfortunately, I can't tell if it is actually working..? I'm on 3 hours of sleep and my consciousness starts to fade ;) , but nothing seemed to be happening for about 15 minutes, so I restarted the program in the debug mode and got this:

I'm too braindead to try anything else now; I'll check if I haven't messed up something tomorrow after work.
ETA: Tomorrow I'll try installing via Itch client and report on the results!
Just a quick update that this issue remains: as of right now non-cuda (cpu) image generation is broken, however I have fixed the issue locally. I need to run through a series of tests, most likely make some more tweaks and will push a new build tomorrow. We operate out of Colorado in the United States. I will likely have the fix pushed by tomorrow evening at the latest.
Furthermore I can confirm (via yet another completely clean windows machine) that the .NET Desktop 6.0.9 x64 architecture is indeed deployed and installed properly if you use setup.exe NOT the msi file as instructed earlier.
On the other hand, on a different PC DID have the .NET runtime installed, I had to use the msi installer to achieve a successful installation as stated earlier today.
It would seem that the best bet is to use setup.exe, and use the msi installer failing that.
Once non-cuda image generation has been fixed I will list the product for sale once more.
Just a quick update:
Loading the application via the Itch client works. Generating images still doesn't work, but I assume that's because sadly I don't have a nVidia card. The log:
Just for reference, my specs are: Ryzen 5 2600, 16GB RAM, Radeon RX 580 (4GB)
Just my luck that ~13 months after buying a (practically non-upgradeable) PC the AI art generation/restoration really becomes a thing and makes me regret not investing in a more powerful GPU (or at least a model where PSU/GPU can be upgraded).
I'll wait until the version with the fixed non-cuda image generation is uploaded and I'll give it a try again.
Thanks for your hard work and good luck!
Okay sounds great,
I want to let you know beyond just the Sable Diffusion model there are smaller models that generate faster on CPU (I got one to generate on a Raspberry Pi 3, but it took around 5 minutes for the image to generate at 256x256)
I have already started incorporating them for a future versions. As soon as we get past this bump in the road I will be able to continue working on the next release.
One of our goals is to support lower powered hardware where possible, so I will be interested to hear how this performs with your PC specs.
Thanks again for hanging in there.
Hello
We have a fix for the CPU (which will be going out this week along with a list of other improvements) however you need to be aware it will be extremely slow. Your hardware is likely to experience generation times of 20 minutes or longer.
Our recommendation to you is to contact support@itch.io and request a refund.
We will likely be adding more models in the future and those may meet your needs, however we have no guaranteed timeline on this so we feel it is in your best interest to return the product.
You have our sincere apologies
The issue appears to be resolved with launch #3. We have tested on multiple machines and all are able to install and run A.I. Runner.
I recommend installing via the itch.io launcher application. In addition to receiving alerts that new editions of A.I. Runner have been released, you will typically have to download less with those releases as only the files you need are supposed to be distributed.
If you choose to go this route after you install and run, here’s what you’ll see
Choose AIrunner.exe to run the app instead of setup.exe
Alternatively, if you choose to download an install without the itch.io launcher application, you should ensure that you install with the AIrunnerSetup.msi file.
I expect the issue to be resolved, however if you continue to experience the bug, please open PowerShell and type
dotnet --info
and post a screenshot. You should see something like this
If it shows no runtimes installed,
dotnet --info
From there I will be able to determine next steps.
