[copper crystal]

it's all about crypto audiences. so laundering bots.

probably not good to tie your income streams to international laundering operations

what's particularly interesting to me is that two new users are asking about irrelevant stable diffusion topics, and have the answers that are need. would you like to know more?

[desert dagger]

that question has no place on this discord

@austere marsh @still glacier

not the first time he's tried this

[copper crystal]

bruh. report him. buttplugs are pretty sever to talk about

make sure the mods that don't exist here know

i remember getting banned from /r/stablediffusion server for questioning you on this point. better report it

[desert dagger]

what makes you think i didn't?

[copper crystal]

its important the not mods know about it. be a good little minimod

[desert dagger]

that's why i pinged 2 of them.

[copper crystal]

yeah totally. it's a super improtant thing to worry about.

[desert dagger]

you really do want me to report you to discord for harassment, don't you?

[copper crystal]

i'm agreeing with you bruh. you done a great job making sure

[karmic brook]

It isn't harassment- move on

[copper crystal]

fruit you should know context. he was a mod of /r/stablediffusion until it was revealed he was using that power to aid cefurkan and powertrip on people he chronically argues with. he's now banned from that community because of a barrage of crazy moderation this week

[desert dagger]

wrong

[karmic brook]

I've been out with a bad flu, so bit behind with the latest

[copper crystal]

it was yesterday

[desert dagger]

hope you're feeling better finally

[fast sage]

Okay. Could you tell me more about it? :D:D:D:D:D

[fervent thunder]

how do i open stable diffusion
i opened it with webui-user.bat yesterday but now it doesnt work

[brave matrix]

does anyone know of a good way to basically add a product kinda like inpainting?
like midjourney --cref but for brands/logos/products

[fervent thunder]

hello

feel better soon the flu suuuucks

got over my first bout of covid recently myself (zero clue how i dodged it this long)

Hey Guys,

Anyone have enterprise plan with stability AI? I'd have some questions 😄

[reef lance]

GM

[gentle prairie]

what prompt should i use to get a normal anime style without tons of effects added on top of it? regarldess of what prompt i use, the same picked from image exemple i always get lots of effect like painting/shading/skin shine, and so on.... there's some LORA but they don't help much

[vagrant fox]

then try looking for trained model that fits your needs

[copper crystal]

normal anime style? bruh have you seen anime? it's all over the place

is there a normal style?

[gentle prairie]

i meant the coloring, like flat colors, but i always get lots of shading and lightning, even if i put those in negative prompt

[copper crystal]

try "3d render" and "CGI" in negative.

Often best way to get flat toon styles is a lora or a specific refine

[tender nebula]

Nope.

[copper crystal]

okay well good luck then

[tender nebula]

hm?

Hi all! Pls help guys, why I have a skeleton from controlnet visible on the result and it comes to the fore?

[vagrant marsh]

Is there people here running Stable DIffusion with Radeon RX 7800 XT the 16 gb vram?

Was thinking of getting the RTX 4060 Ti but that cost a lot and the RX 7800 XT cost less and has the same amount of VRAM

[short mirage]

would flux nf4 or sdxl be better to use on an rtx 3060m (6gb)

[warm junco]

Sdxl would run better

Make sure you use Forge Webui. Its better for the performance

[latent vault]

please use the flux and this is better than SDXl in realistic side, and recommend you the webui forge

the a 1111 can't support the flux

[desert dagger]

can you run auto1111 or comfyUI?

I would just use face swap to swap your friend's face onto the body of the person in rome

to copy the pose, you'd want to use open pose - but to me that's more of a hassle than just doing a face swap

[lunar nebula]

Hello, I could need some help. I am new at Stable Diffusion with Comfy and wonder about something. I had some good results with other images but think I can't get anything good with my lora and prompt. Is some kind of special case but I want to solve it to learn more about controlling the AI so maybe someone could guide me / help me please.

I tried to post the prompt and problem here but it seems it is filtered out because it is with shibari, some kind of rope body art ...

[oblique elk]

use a nsfw channel and keep characters over 18, should be fine

[lunar nebula]

How can I see which channels are NSFW

?

[oblique elk]

Sorry ignore my comment, sometimes i switch so often between severs, i do not know where i am....

Here you won't find nsfw channels

[lunar nebula]

Is there another good SD-Discord?

[oblique elk]

Just add an "un" in front of the name of this server a check the google results.
Otherweise you could try prompting-help and reduce your prompt to the SFW part

[copper crystal]

To anyone who was permanently banned from /r/StableDiffusion reddit community for having a disagreement with one of the mods, That mod has been terminated from the team and it looks like they're going through his actions today and reversing bans they made.

It's still a dead community but leadership has made changes recently and are trying to reverse the toxic situation that a mod acting alone had cultivated over the past year.

PSA for anyone else here that was afflicted by weird mod power flexing.

[nocturne aspen]

I'm totally baffled there is no 'about' section on the hugging face website's nav bar.
I'm aware it contains models people have trained using stable diffusion AI, but I dont really know how to use the website or in general what the f is going on

like I click on a model and it is from meta, which you would assume isn't free, but there is nothing about prices anywhere for each model

It's acknowledge it's not their job to make it more accessible, I'm just saying it'd be nice if they gave some hints for people who want to upskill enough to be able to use/understand the site.
As a web designer there shouldn't be a scenario where someone clicks on your website and is confused.

[fervent thunder]

They probably need documentation software

[tender wagon]

Hello guys, I'm Mike, developer, and I'd like to know why is nobody from stability.ai communicating with me. 😂

I'm facing quite serious invoicing issue since the beginning of the year (!). I started slowly, sending a support email... no response... after couple weeks another one, and another one, in total about 5 mails through out past half year. In past month, I also contacted you through other emails I found on your web and I sent several messages to people from your team on linkedin. ZERO response. Literally total ignore.

I'm just wondering if the company is actually real or if you're intentionally ignoring me? What's the deal please?

Can somebody from stability.ai contact me here please and help me? 🙏

[desert dagger]

@uncut solstice

[plain raptor]

aye mate i feel ya, i ask question in tech support, and only one person there ever actually replies too ppl

and i havent had mai question amswered

idk why the devs dont ever in their life reply here in this server

kinda wonder why theyre even here

or if theyre even devs

and honestly, stable diff is a 2021-2022 thing, server is newer than the first model

makes me think theyre not actualy th devs anyway

OvO

infact, the owner dont even have owner role anymore
that being Kaarssteun

pft

[feral aspen]

Anyone here and alive?

[remote glade]

is it normal for my sdxl model to take like a while to load when i select it for the first time?

[limber scarab]

How is your hardware configuration?

[remote glade]

Its erm

Decent

[limber scarab]

No, I mean vram size or GPU

[tender wagon]

yeah its a bit frustrating. i would like to keep using them but without handling the invoicing problem I can't proceed... quite stupid.

[desert dagger]

They are working

[desert dagger]

They are devs. People cant give themselves the roles, the SAI admin does that by hand. Just because you see someone online doesnt mean they are watching discord, just means discord has noticed that the person's device is connected

[desert dagger]

Yes. It has to load into vram

[plain raptor]

1. i was a discord developer, 2. unless u open discord, discord process will not start, and wil not tell a user is online, the user must open and start the process for discord to say thay are online, 3. those people can and should message in the server, they dont, and im pretty sure they can and have time to.

and, u have no more knowledge than i do, about this server being hosted by real developers

u were here since august 8th

one month before

me

this server was created by the person i mentioned, they no longer have the role, and the account is dead

thos ppl can very well just be mates, and this server created , to gain users as some kinda goal, or to share their enthusiasm about Ai art

and if they are the actual developers, it seems already very unlikley that theyd even join a discord server, to not ever engage in, or even with the users, if they are this busy

so it already dont make sense

and xD, im pretty sure, non of the ppl here, has ever stepped foot in the doors of Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich

and im pretty sure, the researchers of that university, wouldnt use discord either, a program desinged for gamers

theyd use a more profressional program

Zoom for example

and for the record, one "dev" has been playing MC for 119 hours

so, u wanna talk about busy XD

busy finding that diamond more like it'

also, stability Ai is open source, which means anyone, can change the code, and upload to github

that does not make them a developer

that maks them an editor/modder

a mere contributor

so, imp, theyre not the orignal developer of stable diff, those 5 people, are def not here, and the 3 ppl who created the python code, are busy at ludwig

so

-dabs like its 2017-

[worldly egret]

[rich locust]

does anyone have a good prompt for random backgrounds?

(other than random background) xD

[arctic coral]

Maybe describing general vibes and emotions can result in plenty variation like 'atmospheric, pleasing to look at, vertical wallpaper, moody' and trying the same prompts on different checkpoints can also result in highly variating results even within the same bade model from my experience

#📝｜prompting-help can probably help better idk much

[rich locust]

good idea :3 thanks!

[mellow zinc]

yo peeps, what's a good model for generating environments? nature and city sceneries and stuff like that

[floral umbra]

Is there a tool that can sort my loras based on type of checkpoint it's made for?

For example sdxl, sd1.5, sd 3.5, flux, etc?

[tawdry cape]

https://github.com/Kinglord/ComfyUI_LoRA_Sidebar?tab=readme-ov-file

[tawdry cape]

i recently learned about a thing called wildcards which is a collection of text prompts made by other people that you can mix and match, maybe there's some wildcards for different creative backgrounds on CivitAI

[floral umbra]

Oh neat! Do you know of one that can put them in proper folders automatically as well? Or does it do that too?

[tawdry cape]

i dont know of any but if i wanted to do something like that I would click on Manager > Install Node > type "civit" in the search and there's a bunch of lora / checkpoint downloaders that might save it in ia structured way

[fast sage]

Wild cards are the color = ['red', 'blue'] 'the dog is {color}

Or the dog is [red|blue] in the prompt text.

[tawdry cape]

not true if you browse through wildcards you'll see that some "snippets" of text aren't merely just one word parts, it's elaborate sets of text including even the score tags sometimes

@fast sage @rich locust here's an example: https://civitai.com/models/137660/loads-of-halloween-backgrounds

if you open up that file for example you'll see some of the 'wilidcards' or variations are:

- Cursed amulet with mesmerizing, glowing powers
- Halloween carnival with eccentric creatures manning the rides
- Glowing ghostly apparitions dancing in the moonlight
- Halloween-themed masquerade ball with enchanted guests
- Mysterious potion bottles lined up on a dusty shelf

so I could see a wildcard set existing that's dedicated for other type of backgrounds too

[fast sage]

Posted reply in #🏞｜general-with-images to upload the image

[desert dagger]

a wild card can be anything you want to replace with something else. it's just eaiser to think of them as being a single word.

[tawdry cape]

I agree, like the term wild card was around way before the term "wildcard" without a space was created to talk about the ecosyystem of nodes/tools/scripts/formats and text sets that support this idea of templatng random strings

[desert dagger]

yup. just make sure whatever you're replacing the wildcard with fits what you're removing so it the entire thing still makes sense

wildcards are just variables. and variables can be anything. in this case, the variable is a text string. so "a" == "this is a cat" - if you want it to

[tawdry cape]

i think its pretty cool people would take theiir time to make sets for others, ive seen some pretty cool sets of wildcards that have score tags and everything, nice to see creativity being shared like that

[desert dagger]

yeah. and actually, making a set is a lot of fun if you're the sort that enjoys that. more fun than actually using them

[tawdry cape]

lol not my cup of tea i'd say, I enjoy using them a lot more than making them, I'd imagine I would just use chatgpt if i wanted to make my own set, and it'd quickly turn into a chore more than a fun thing, thats just me tho

[ripe isle]

que me paso ?

[fast sage]

I hate to correct you and I'm not trying to argue again, but wildcards are just dynamic strings they can be random and they can be iterated through. a wild card can also be a character *.png (It represents "zero or more characters" in most file-matching systems.) or SELECT * IN tableName; (everything) in sql.

You keep saying "spaces" even though a string is a string, you're the only one I know that has ever assumed wildcards are a "single word", unless the system specifically handles characters with the interpretation and functionality a string is a string regardless of how many spaces are in it [red|blue] assumes you can put whatever you want and it would be dumb to put a sentence to explain to others it's more than one word because you're the only one I know that is having an issue with this basic concept.

In development a string is a set of characters including spaces. There's no instance in programming where a word represents a primitive type, at the very most it's an array of characters, and there's no need to explain to people there's a space or not, common sense at the very least would test and try out multiple words if they are confused.

I just want to hammer this home because it seems you don't fully understand this.

[tawdry cape]

all i know is that a string is that little rope I break off from the little box of string when I floss 🤓

[fervent thunder]

would be good if you could possibly stop citing Civitai as a source on machine learning stuff
they used the term pruning in an unconventional way, and they use the term wildcard in an unconventional way also

[tawdry cape]

I actually take that back, I was wrong on that subject of precision, i don't think they use it the wrong way, I think i remembered it wrong and they're not doing anything wrong, i also had a chat with chatgpt abot it if it's even within the realm of being okay to refer as precision trimming as pruning and chatgpt is like nope that's a no no

they ask you model type pruned | full and then they ask you precisioin in another dropdown, i think i conflated the two in my head and i should've gone back ino creating a new model to check it at the time

i don't think Civitai iuses the term wildcard n an unconventional way either, if you go into ComfyUI and go to install nodes, and you type the search term wildcards you'll find the node that are compatible with the like-named word sets on civit, I think it's fair to describe the whole ecosystem as of type 'wildcards' in which they support that purpose

[fast sage]

But that's not a wild card, that's like saying Regex is a wildcard.

A wildcard is the process of the text being replaced.

Nodes facilitate the process, but they are not specifically wildcards, they are just a pre collected set.

It would be better to teach people about wildcards so they can do them themselves instead of relying on maybe finding a set on citiv that they want / need.

[fervent thunder]

okay, fair enough, that sort of thing is very confusing its easy to get it mixed up

[tawdry cape]

nobody is saying the term wildcard is exclusive thing to one domain except you, i think te term wildcard can mean many things in various contexts, I think if a novice was looking for ways to randomize their prompt, leading them in with the keyword wildcard which in this context describes the ecosysytem is the way to go

[fervent thunder]

isn't this circular logic though
if Civit ai popularised their usage of the term
the popularity of the term cannot be used to justify Civit's definition

[fast sage]

You can either teach someone about what a wildcard is so they can do it themselves; or show them some obscure node through a website that you have to download and hope it has the prompts you want in them.

What would you like to learn?

[tawdry cape]

the second one

its not one obscure node tho, its a whole set of them, there's a tleast 20 of them that pretty much do the same thing with different variations

some support yaml, some support json, others support different templating syntax

[fast sage]

This lad is trolling now.

[tawdry cape]

lol 🤓 I just know I like to floss

@fervent thunder knows me pretty well by now I think he can tell what kind of guy I am

[fervent thunder]

I don't have an issue with nodes that do the work for people
this conversation is kinda confusing cos
wildcard had a long established definition in python ecosystem already, which comfy is based on
civit then made a category which contained stuff related to using wildcards in comfy
but I don't think civit's category should become as default a term as the previous underlying python term

is what I think

[fast sage]

Not only that, it's a set of pre defined prompts, something you can easily generate yourself, it's not needed, if anything it's just abstracting away both customization and adding more complexity to the system./

[tawdry cape]

but I don't think civit's category should become as default a term as the previous underlying python term
i think the only one suggesting that is code, again there's nothing wrong with havnig one word that means different things for different uses and groups of people. heck they even phrase it as Wildcard in those search results, i think the term wildcard an co-exist as it was used for programming as well as for this ecosystem of templating

[tawdry cape]

im a very hands off kinda guy, i ilike the path of least resistance, if someone did the work to make me a bunch of words I'll take those words gladly and run with it saving me the trouble of having to do it myself

in fact i think @fervent thunder you gave me 2 .txt files a while back which was a list of words for mediums and styles you remember that?

[fast sage]

Not everyone is like that, you've so far assumed people don't know what strings and wildcards are, you've assumed that wildcards on citiv are the only solution (when I told you what wildcards are you said I was wrong), and you're assuming people want a pre set of wildcards.

When your only solution is to drop a external website to a solution for a question and someone says well this is what wildcards are and this is an option you argued that I was wrong.

Yes, you can download nodes all you want, but that doesn't explain what wildcards are and it also doesn't mean those are wildcards.

[tawdry cape]

hey buddy let's just agree to disagree 🤝

[desert dagger]

why is there an arguement about what wild cards are?

[fervent thunder]

well there is a civit ai category
but I would rather use the old python definition

[desert dagger]

let's just use the dictionary definition https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/wild card

[fervent thunder]

that's fine yeah

[lucid bobcat]

Does anyone know a good workflow for prompting one thing to look like another thing? So for example the first thing could be water, rock, clouds, sand, a flock of birds, fireworks etc, and the other thing would define a shape like wolf, tree, chair etc and the final image would show how a material or many small objects take on the form of some other object. I never had success with this, I always get both things separate from each other in my generations. I have the same problem with SD and Flux. Only Dall-e seems to fair a bit better.

That's not an issue nor is it a question of support.

[tawdry cape]

Redux

[elder vault]

Yaay controlnets! I'm feeling hyped for the medium ones

[lucid bobcat]

You only mention that because it's new, it's just like any other ip adapter. I already tried it and it's not suitable for that task. yes I can change the look and texture of things, but I only want the shape. For example a dust cloud in the shape of a frog, not a dusty frog, which redux will make.

How can I generate images with this?

[balmy hemlock]

Hello there, I reset my laptop ( remove all data's ) and reinstall my nvidia drivers and forge, when Im generating images with forge ( with the exact same settings than before, before the reset ) all my images are deformed, is it something like a library I have to reinstall ?

[desert dagger]

the information is in the #artisan-faq

[fluid oriole]

Is there a guide to make high quality pictures? Like I see on civitai these amazing portraits of characters. Great colour, great poses. Just really cool. But then when I make mine using the same checkpoint and loma. It looks so amateur. Obv I’m not completely copying prompts to any that I try to compare to. I’m just saying I see all these amazing art yet when I try on my own. I make some amateur level pic

Anyone have any idea what I’m talking about?

[desert dagger]

just time and experience, really. a lot of exploring, a lot of 'let's see if this works", a lot of watching tutorials on youtube, etc

[fluid oriole]

👍 ah I see. Thank you very much

I’m enjoying it a lot so far

Do you have a good GPU?

[desert dagger]

you'll get there :) just take your time and explore. give it a single word as a prompt, see what it does. try different samplers with the same word and the same seed, see what it does

[desert dagger]

i have a 4060

[fluid oriole]

Nice

Thank you

[desert dagger]

:) you're welcome. remember - the fun is in the journey - explore

[mild hedge]

Hope someone can help me on this..

The text outside of the parenthesis is the base prompt for all my characters then the inside text is distinct for each character.

The issue I am running in to is the styles of the images are not consistent. Yes the character elements are correct but the output is not following the style guidelines provided. I have tried adding a seed from an output I liked, starting with an image, a whole variety of negative prompts etc..

Any advice for me? I'm trying to create 200ish characters in a similar style.

A (digital caricature in realistic proportions:10) of ({A young man with neatly styled dark brown hair, dressed in a crisp white shirt under a soft beige
sweater. He sits at a wide wooden desk, surrounded by an open linguistics textbook, a laptop displaying phonetic symbols, and a notebook filled with handwritten notes. The background features a quiet study room with shelves of thick reference books, a chalkboard covered in linguistic diagrams, and a softly lit table lamp casting a warm glow.})

[remote glade]

man

[fast sage]

What do you mean?

[pliant bane]

I'm using outdated extensions and this is not allowing me to use some checkpoints, I need to know where I can download the newest versions

[fast sage]

comfy exports the workflow in the image and sometimes images on citi contain the workflow information so you can just drag and drop.

[fast sage]

I don't really know how they can be outdated, as it just runs off stable python, but if you have a specific extension you need to update check their readme.

What are you using? Comfy, auto11?

[pliant bane]

Auto11

[fast sage]

The plugins you want to use will have a readme and a git, go to it to see what the proper way to update would be.

Each plugin is different for each thing.

[pliant bane]

This problem of the SD not accepting some checkpoints is something that has been happening to other people too, several checkpoints that I used suddenly no longer download to the SD, and if they do download they do not activate.

[fast sage]

I don't know what this means, as it's all over the place.

[pliant bane]

Then a guy told me it could be the extensions.

[fast sage]

You're downliading models in auto?

[pliant bane]

I think if I send you the code I'm using, you might understand better.

[fast sage]

If you can drop it in a code block I can look at it.

I've checked a few times to see if there was a problem but no, it must really be something that is out of date.

[fast sage]

What is happening?

[fluid stump]

Sorry to ask, is there a way I can split the GPU to run 2 comfyui workflows at the same time?

[desert dagger]

nope

[tawdry cape]

That would be cool to do, I’ve wished that too, when I get 16gb instances in RunPod it feels like a waste of resources using it to generate images using SDXL , feels like if I could allocate 8gb to each instance that would probably increase efficiency

[fluid stump]

yeah it would be nice if they can support split gpu :3

[tawdry cape]

i think the first hurdle would be manunally coniguuring each instance to have it's own set of ports, when you run comfyui twice the 2nd one crashese bc the the port is in use, mayybe simply just changing the port would solve the issue? im not sure

Hi. Happy Thanksgiving 🦃

[bronze merlin]

Hello Happy Thanksgiving🦃🦃🦃🦃

[floral cipher]

helo :D

[primal current]

Does anyone here do AI OFM

[modest stratus]

To the Stability.ai team and my fellow content creators - Happy Thanksgiving! All the best to you and yours.

[balmy hemlock]

Hello guy's, what's your numbers of IT/s with forge + Flux + Hiresfix ? Got around 5 its/s, wondering if it's bad or average

[leaden mural]

Heya, does anyone here have done AI stuff in general? I have some questions.

[crisp topaz]

where would I go to talk about hardware to do stable diffusion at home? would it be here or #🤝｜tech-support ?

[cold ridge]

hi

[bright ember]

hello guys do you know if there is a lora half girl model? I would like to create a character that is half 2 different girls

[long spade]

hey can someone point me in a direction where i can figure out how to get SDXL funtioning properly? i have downloaded both the Model and the refiner but i get a bunch of weird artifacting in the image, currently using a rtx3080

i need to generate an image of a bridge 😦

[hallow nacelle]

Don't think anyone here uses sd forge for flux or sd3.5

[quartz siren]

What are you using? and probably don't use the refiner, it makes the images more "plasticky" while using way more vram and time.

[warm junco]

Don't use a refiner and use a custom sdxl model

That should work fine

Which webui do you use?

[warm junco]

I'm using it for flux

[plucky juniper]

Make a cat and swimming

[inner lark]

I wanted to ask what you think about controlnet for sd 3.5? I don't really like it. It only works fine in 1024x1024 (Only in this resolution I was able to get a high-quality render without artifacts and other oddities.).
Perhaps the problem is in the comfyui nodes, and not in the controlnet itself? Now, to work with an elongated image, I have to compress it to 1024 and add black fields. Only then does the controlnet start working tolerably.

[desert dagger]

it's more likely that it's lack of familiarity - work with it for a while, like anything else new - figure out how it functions, then decide if you like it or not. the stuff people like FoFr are getting out of it is very good

[inner lark]

I know what controlnet is and how it should work. Now I just want to understand if this is a problem in the comfyui controlnet nodes (do not work correctly with models) or in the model itself (which was trained only in 1024 by 1024)?

[ember dawn]

can it be that adding ''Excellent FFT'' to your prompt upgrades your algorithm?

[barren sentinel]

guys question what is flux?

[desert dagger]

the model from black forest labs

[barren sentinel]

is it like stable diffusion?

nvm i stick to it

[desert dagger]

it's a diffusion model if that's what you're asking.

[barren sentinel]

oh

oki

it all complex for me so

[warped heart]

guys should i download reforge?

[warm junco]

No problem 🙂

[kindred grail]

Anyone know a music generator I can install locally ?

[oblique elk]

https://github.com/facebookresearch/audiocraft/blob/main/docs/MUSICGEN.md might do the trick

[kindred grail]

Thanks will have a look.

[tawny drum]

Hello

[brittle oyster]

Is there a cheat sheet to know which text encorders/vaes I need for the various Flux models? GGUF, FP8, Lumiere etc..?

[remote glade]

Do I need uh

The latest python version or can I run comfyui on python 3.10.6

[cedar salmon]

i use 3.10.6 without error if that means anything, not even sure what they expect

[remote glade]

o

[warm junco]

3.10.11 works perfect too

And is more recent

[remote glade]

so if I wanna use

a1111

I have 10.6

Then if I wan use comfy

do I need 2 different virtual python

[warm junco]

Nope

Comfyui comes with python already

And they have separated venvs

[tribal crown]

anyone good with pony i need some tips

[brittle oyster]

I'm not sure what you mean by "good" but I use it often in Forge

[tribal crown]

i am trying to get a specific prompting

is nsfw allowed to discuss here?

if not can i pm?

[remote glade]

o

[ocean plank]

Hi! How could i use the image generator and in wish channel?

[main snow]

i've done a lotta pony stuff so maybe i'm good, depends on what ya need

[tribal crown]

it is easy to get clothes on characters, but making them do the action of changing into or from to a costume is different. I would like to show the motion of a character dressing into or undressing some clothing. It is not doing it properly. Any good prompts with this?

[main snow]

seems real specific, the best tips i got for this is 1- try to look for a lora specific for this if such thing exists 2- don't use too many loras as i've seen it straight up ignore parts of the prompt due to having too many and as for prompt i'd try a simple clothes description like "white shirt" and stuff like "changing into" "getting dressed" "dressing up" and similars

[tender prairie]

Is there any colab notebook I could use that could do a img2img, like getting a personal photograph in and say to re-do it in a specific style?

[main snow]

idk what ya mean by notebook but making a lora with said pic might be a way to simply change it's style. I'm sure there's easier ways tho

[fast sage]

Anyone use https://github.com/kijai/ComfyUI-CogVideoXWrapper in comfy I need to know what the updates / whats avalible.

[median arch]

Any idea why Flux on Forge is using easily over 50 GB of my RAM at the end of image generation?
Normally it starts with 2, then 6, 12 GB for most of render time and then at the end it rockets up killing my whole RAM and over 30 GB disk space (RAM overflow) resulting with average 100 GB memory usage 💀

[rapid tendon]

Are the sd3.5 controlnets not available in the api?

[rapid tendon]

I can’t find an api for them anywhere

[desert dagger]

sounds like forge isnt' set up correctly

[desert dagger]

https://blog.comfy.org/sd3-5-large-controlnet/ they are available here

[zealous vale]

🥰

[runic mountain]

a bird flying in the sky on the MARS

[mild garnet]

Can we generate images here?

[desert dagger]

only in the artisan channels. read the information in #artisan-faq

[blissful aspen]

Is there any extension or an option, where I can set a maximum amount of px (either height or width), in img2img? For instance I put an 4k image, so I always have to resize it manually by a factor of ~0.4 or so. Instead I would like to have an option where it automatically resizes whenever it exceeds the limit. On the other side, when the image is less than the limit it doesn't matter.
I am on reForge btw

I have found a bunch of "aspect-ratio" extensions, but they don't have that option. stable-diffusion-webui-ux has an option "maximum resolution", but this does not seems to be working on reForge

In some extensions I can select a resolution, but it loses the propotions of my img

[steel fable]

Anyone have a good video how to create pic with 2 dif chars with regional prompter please?

[low moon]

admins, blast this fool

[cedar salmon]

where do i buy the PDF

[elfin stone]

nvm just realized that wont work lol

[fervent thunder]

its always crypto, e-commerce or dropshipping 🤔

[steep copper]

is there any channel to get advice/tips/techniques about image generation or can i just drop it here just for discussion

[fervent thunder]

everyone hangs out in the SD3 channel

[steep copper]

thx

[low moon]

or forex.

[fervent thunder]

yeah forex is a common one too

not as bad cos at least forex is a legit viable activity

e-commerce or dropshipping got ended in 2010 when Aliexpress launched

and crypto is crypto

[agile forge]

hello im glad to have join you guys, because im starting and i have some questions that coudltn find answers on the internet, i wish for the community here to help if possible.

so i made a character, but i have real life background pictures that i want to add him into it. can i do it with sd ? or am i doing ti with else ?

[fiery reef]

hi

[main snow]

first i'd find an art style that fits your taste, be it using sd, pony, flux and wtv. Then your best bets is to either make a LORA of the background you want using pictures of it

[ebon wolf]

Howdy! Coming here to check out SD after spending a while with Mid. Glad to explore the model capabilities

[fresh ruin]

anyway to make like "running Forge Stable Diffusion" display as discord status?

[agile forge]

Is there a way to do it using control net or else ?

[main snow]

no clue man, never used control net

[agile forge]

Ill try again.

[main snow]

best of luck

[agile forge]

ty.
hum is there normal for "admins" here to ask for your crypto wallet in order to answer questions or help or are they scammers ? because if so, there are a bunch tho. trying to get people's private info in dms, undercover in some "tickets" servers they ask you to join after pm you first on discord. watch out please, i nearly got talked into it.

[tame smelt]

hello

[karmic brook]

the only admin here in this server is my account, just for reference! you can check my role here

SAI staff is flagged by role here by clicking into them. These accounts are safe & vetted, and will likely never DM accounts here.

please do report these accounts to Discord so their accounts can be flagged

[agile forge]

okay. will do. just for the others to watch out because i saw many people in the server list when i was in them 2 servers.

[plush storm]

hello

[fast sage]

This has been going on for a few weeks now, you guys should be adding a bot or writing something that stops these types of posts.

[cedar salmon]

yup cuz this is a pool for fishing scammers to fish in

[quasi pulsar]

[cedar salmon]

stabilityai suggested i come here ill emal them, maybe they dont know

[median jewel]

I have been trying to get a lora to work in stable diffusion but nothing works, I have the same sd1.5, I place the lora in the correct folder, I use the trigger words but it still wont work, why is that?

[plucky otter]

hello!

[marble meadow]

Do you recommend training a lora with generated images?

[desert dagger]

just rn them through photoshop first and clean them up as needed

[lucid bobcat]

Shouldn't image generation be faster if model and text encoder fit into vram? Then why is it faster for me to use 17GB Flux models on a 8GB 2070 compared to 7GB models? also is 6.5s/it slow for a 1024x1024 image? So either I'm already at the speed limit and memory isn't really the bottleneck or I'm doing samething wrong and should be getting much faster generations.

[desert dagger]

not necessarily. it also has to do with how fast your GPU is

[sly eagle]

Hello, is there's a way that I can retouch a video of a 3d model I made better with Ai? like better lineart details

[desert dagger]

you might try runway or capcut's video upscalers

[sly eagle]

Is runway free?

[desert dagger]

no

[marble meadow]

i don't have adobe

[desert dagger]

okay, run them through krita then. the issue is just that you need to make sure there aren't anomalies and strangeness in the images as they are what you are going to be teaching the AI with

[marble meadow]

when you say run them, what do you mean?

[lucid bobcat]

But why is everyone and their mother stressing how important it is to have enough vram for the model. Absolutely every single tutorial will tell you to choose a model that fits into your vram. But for me, choosing the bigger one even runs faster. That's why I thought I must be doing something wrong.

[desert dagger]

load the image into krita, zoom in on it. look around and fix any little mistakes

[desert dagger]

becaue you need to load the model into vram so your system doesn' tneed to use a lot of swap space. not enough Vram AND/OR not a fast enough GPU will both cause you issues

[lucid bobcat]

but for any given GPU shouldn't a model that fits into vram be better because it doesn't have to swap memory? Or do you mean that the perfomance penalty from using the smaller model is bigger than the perfomance penalty from memory swaps?

[cedar salmon]

i have your same experience earnstar with a 2080ti

[modern pagoda]

💩

Link shortening. What could possibly... go wrong? 🫠🙃

[lucid bobcat]

Someone please report and ban this piece of shit

[desert dagger]

@karmic brook

[copper crystal]

lol are you signalling a mod because somebody disagreed with you??

must be tough

[atomic mortar]

Probably a miss swipe because theres a spam link right under

Phones can be finnicky

[copper crystal]

Yeah you're probably right. How weird would it be to want someone banned because of a disagreement. That'd be super psycho

[dense aspen]

Is there a tool I can add to stable diffusion to make it possible for me to make a video?

[copper crystal]

animatediff models work against stable diffusion models. but a better way is to use an entirely separat image to video model. there's lots of those around lately. i can't recall the names right now. comfyui probably has the best support for all the various image to video models

[devout hull]

Hello, what you think about this WordPress plugin that is easy to integrate and connects to webui forge server using flux? Need maybe more feedback's about the prompt generation part that is a second plugin that can be added to the main one. https://youtu.be/ng8WBNilBKA?si=aZs2uHkxAw053qmv

[fervent thunder]

not sure if you would like this answer but you can do high speed and effective image editing on GPU using code with things like OpenGL Shading Language and PyTorch-based libraries like Kornia

it can be over 10,000% faster than methods that don't utilise the GPU so well

[left comet]

Does anyone know about a good open source heygen alternative? (I dont just need a talking head, I also want the typical gestures and such as present in the source video file)
-only thing I could find was TANGO, but they havent published the full code and the public version is very limited.

[devout hull]

15k in 3 days without investing any money??

I don't believe you.

sorry.

[fervent thunder]

its likely either a bot or outsourced to a spam farm in SE Asia
apparently some of these have malware they send in a download link in the DMs
otherwise its just phishing most likely

[still glacier]

Yeah we have a bunch of bots like that. Trying to ponzi scam or pass themselves as "discord support" with link to an external discord. Don't interact with them, right click them, report them to discord and eventually ping a community guide / fruit.

They even tried to post some cr4pto scam before that. 100% a (bot) scammer.

[fervent thunder]

yeah cr4pto is a common one

and dropshipping/e-commerce, even though that trend stopped in 2010

cos now Aliexpress sells directly from Chinese factories

[fresh ruin]

whats the faster way to change lora weight on prompt?

[quaint compass]

wolf

[mystic siren]

Anyone here that considers himself an expert in photoshop?

[fervent thunder]

its better to just ask your question directly, instead of asking for an expert

[fallow laurel]

Hello everyone! I want to get into stable diffusion or warp diffusion to enhance my music video production. I'm a little confused on where to start. I don't want to fall for a scam or anything, any guidance for tools or models would be awesome🙌 thank
ya!

[lapis crypt]

Same here.. where to start? I quit after the colabs died, now I’m ready 😬

[desert dagger]

what do you need?

[desert dagger]

that depends on if you want to generate at home or you want to use a website option. if you want free or you're willing to pay for service.

[copper crystal]

https://dontasktoask.com/

[hoary ether]

Hello, everyone.

I am a passionate AI / ML Developer with over 7 years of experience crafting and deploying advanced AI solutions, who specialize in Deep Learning, Natural Language Processing (NLP), and Gen AI, with a proven track record of building high-impact AI models and applications.
I am familar with Full stack development, so recently engaged in the AI-based web application development.
I am looking for new opportunity working with you.

Thank you

[fallow laurel]

I'm really open to whatever gets the highest quality results! I'm willing to pay, but like the idea of generating at home. The few website options I've seen are a little low quality for what I'd like. Is it hard learning to generate on your own?

[desert dagger]

if you're willing to run gpus, ther'es https://vast.ai/

as far as if it's hard learnign to generate on your own - that depends on you and how fast you pick stuff up

[fallow laurel]

Okay that is helpful, I'll look into that! Lastly, do you have any website generating recommendations?

[desert dagger]

my #1 recomendatation for anyone just starting out is to use comfyUI and to watch all of Scott's https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AbB33AxrcZo&list=PLIF38owJLhR1EGDY4kOnsEnMyolZgza1x comfyUI tutorials

[warm junco]

Do you have a good GPU in your system? Then you can do ai stuff locally

[fallow laurel]

Sweet I'll check it out, I appreciate your help!

[fallow laurel]

I sadly do not, just a standard gaming PC!

[warm junco]

What's your GPU then?

A standard would be an 8gb GPU maybe

[fallow laurel]

Yes I have an 8gb! What do you have?

[fervent thunder]

cloud is actually cheaper local use for me

electricity cost would be around $0.20 per hour

can get cloud GPUs for less than that

[warm junco]

I have 24 xD
But 8gb is enough to use Stable diffusion locally

[fallow laurel]

That is good to know, I'll also check out the cloud option. Thank ya!

[copper crystal]

https://nvlabs.github.io/Sana/ is this the new model from the pixart team?

[quartz siren]

Yeah, its pretty fast and decent quality. Better then sd3.5 medium imo(maybe not as a refiner, i'm not sure), and considerably faster as well. But honestly, for most purposes, just use a low-step flux/sd3.5 large model. That should be similar speeds and considerably better quality.

[copper crystal]

its a non commercial creative commons license. thats cool. non commercial sucks but i get it

[gentle prairie]

what does it mean when a model on huggingface has 3 of them in the files?

like "model-00001-of-00003.safetensors" "model-00002-of-00003.safetensors"

etc...

[plush crypt]

I use the comfyui platform to do advanced workflows and I want a node that allows me to use an image that comes from a bypass node without having to reload it, how can I do?

[quartz siren]

the model is split into parts so its faster to download, and when loading, it will use less ram.

[gentle prairie]

ok so when i load it into the webui, loading the 001-of-003 is enough?

[quartz siren]

no, all of the files combined is the model(001-of-003, 002-of-003, 003-of-003)

[gentle prairie]

yeah i know, but how do i load it into webui since it's three separate safetensors?

[quartz siren]

what webui are you using?

[gentle prairie]

auto1111

[quartz siren]

A111 doesn't use that type of loading, it requires single file checkpoint instead.
You can find the file if it has ckpt or safetensors in the end like "model.ckpt" or "model.safetensors" and isn't like 001-of-003

What model are you trying to use?

[bright salmon]

Hello peeps. Quick question.. whats the best method for open source lipsync. Im using comfyui but all the workflows seem broken

[tender vortex]

Has anyone here trained a controlnet before? I am having trouble having mine save checkpoints

[gentle prairie]

why after a while the results just get jumbled color mess, even though i didn't change anything in the prompts?

[wet grotto]

what is the name of that site with virtual GPU to rent? V something...

[loud blade]

Hey all, which toolbox setting would allow me to upload a logo image and alter it?

[quartz siren]

Many options, the most popular are, vast.ai, runpod, lambda labs

[vivid smelt]

mbti entp character people fits what kind of works

[median jewel]

Its so weird I cant get any LoRA to work on my Stable diffusion does anyone know the reson, I put it in the correct location and download sd1.5 but still wont work

[pastel iris]

Hi All! I'm Matthew, I maintain a performance analysis software and wanted to contribute to SD.

Is there a dev channel? I wanted to make sure I wasn't off by proposing this. https://github.com/lllyasviel/stable-diffusion-webui-forge/discussions/716#discussioncomment-11453245

[fervent thunder]

the SD ecosystem does desperately need better performance analysis tools
this server is fairly low activity now though

[warped heart]

hi guys do anybody know how to create several arts with same scene(Background)?

img2img isnt very effective

photoshop is the only way?

[hallow shore]

img2img with inpaint?

[warped heart]

Standing/sitting change will ruin art

[desert dagger]

vast.ai

[glad barn]

How are you currently prompting your LoRa? Does your LoRa match your base model? I.E. SD 1.5?

[median jewel]

i actually thinkg i got it to work I noticed I have to write the trigger word in the prompt

then what i wanted

[glad barn]

Excellent.

[glad barn]

This can be a result of a number of settings. Be sure to check your resolution, steps, and VAE. Do you know if your image generation is actually finishing? I.E. is it taking the usual amount of time to generate?

[sturdy kernel]

Hey yall

[gentle prairie]

couldn't find what it was, reseted and everything seemed to be fine

[glad barn]

Great

[gentle prairie]

now if i want to do a lot of images in one go, is it better to use batch count or batch size?

also it's weird, with img2img, at first it gave me different hairstyle all the time, now it only gives me almost always the same, with the same hair color, even though i didn't change the denoising strength

[lapis flint]

FLUX won't render! Running SD in fresh FORGE UI, I have installed Flux models and dependencies in their folders. Writing a simple prompt at only 512x512, 8 steps, 'generate'. "Connection Errored Out" pops up. the dev-Q4 model runs once in a while. SD1.5 models run fine. PC with 12GB VRAM. Ideas?

[upper merlin]

Generating images is no longer available? Where can I generate images for free? Thanks!

[pastel iris]

Gabriel, craiyon? also local SD is free

Well, you gotta pay for the electricity.

😉

[stiff ridge]

are there any good video 2 video that i can run locally?

Also looking for a image 2 video

[glad barn]

Batch count if you're referring to the most images in one run. Though a combination of the two results in the most images overall.

[glad barn]

Could be the masked area has changed. Could also be a change in the prompt.

[gentle prairie]

no change in the prompt, and no masking used, it's weird, again, reseting the whole thing fixed it, something going on in the background that i'll never understand :p

[glad barn]

Had similar issues. If at all possible I recommend running flux on comfyui as it has been more stable in my experience and I don't know why.

[gentle prairie]

ugh, now the webUI completely freeze when it reach the end of the first image generation... even after interrupting, it doesn't stop the progress bar, and even closing the webui and relaunching, does the same thing

i guess i'll have to restart the computer

[copper crystal]

its eating all your 12gb of vram then diving into system memory. it's the heavy swapping that freezes up your system.

same will happen on comfyui if you don't configure it with the proper optimizations for 12gb of vram

[gentle prairie]

heavy swapping meaning?

[rain flicker]

Hi guys. I'm trying to study Flux models. It seems like SD3 they are MMDiT - Multimodal Diffusion Transformers, an alternative to the usual U-Net backbone previous Diffusion models had. However, during the training of Flux.1 LoRA, I use a VAE, a U-Net and a CLIP. Can someone explain what sthe purpose of the U-Net here? How it would be different from the U-Net of the backbone?

[copper crystal]

moving data that doesn't fit into vram into your system ram. and when that's full (i assume you have 16-32gb of system memory), it'll move stuff between your storage devices and your system memory. swapping it back and forth as it needs the bits that have over flowed.

[gentle prairie]

but what could cause eating all my VRAM, even after closing the webUI and relaunching?

i didn't use it any differently than before getting the issue

[copper crystal]

dont knwo. it's like a giant plinko machien really. I dont' have all the diagnostic data.

have you tried turning it off and then back on?

[gentle prairie]

guess as i said, just rebooting the PC will fix it

i'm going to sleep anyway, we'll see tomorrow :p

thanks

[copper crystal]

It's usually my first thing i do to rule it out

and if it works then i am left wondering still.. "why it work?"

[rain flicker]

Is it actually an U-Net, or is it just the naming convention for the model folder?

[quartz siren]

Unet is different architecture from mmdit but the task is the same, flux is also mmdit but many libraries have bad naming so they name mmdit also unet.

Flux does not use unet, it uses mmdit like sd3. Just bad naming.

[quartz siren]

For img2vid, I would probably recommend ltxv right now because it’s good quality and crazy fast speed(10sec for a 5sec video on a 4090).

[copper crystal]

i've brought the concern up with comfy developers specifically and i was brushed off like i was an idiot. This was one of the topics that someone got into it with me over, then deleted all his messages and banned me from the other discord server he was a mod of.

apparently mmdit are UNET as well. and sdxl is a transformer model. I think blurring the semantics this way is a disservice. It's a hot button issue that people get very personal over.

[quartz siren]

I mean they clearly are different in ways, unet is made of convolution networks and transformers while mmdits are purely made of transformers.

But I think unet is starting to be a general name now since it was very common.

I think it is a bit misleading but understandable.

[copper crystal]

my experience in design has been around UX. And it's bad UX. Talking about it has got me a lot of grief and banned from communities for no good reason. So i sorta just don't care much anymore.

Any hope that i've held for open source AI becoming mainstream are long gone at this point.

[cedar salmon]

move your "unets" to diffusion_models and delete the unet folder

Load Unet is also now load diffusion models

[desert dagger]

mmdit is not unet

[copper crystal]

#🆕｜sd3 message oh

[desert dagger]

unet is the architecture that all versions of stable use before SD3. mmdit is the architecture that sd3 and flux use

[copper crystal]

you're really back and forth on this subject and have banned me from servers you used to moderate for engaging it. You may stand down now.

[desert dagger]

from the message you linked "Stable diffusion, all versions, up to but not including sd3.X " - underline 'up to but not including"

that means sd1.4, sd1.5, sd2.0, sd2.1, sdxl - but NOT including SD3.x

[copper crystal]

i'm glad for you. walk away now

[desert dagger]

not as long as you continue to misquote me

[copper crystal]

dismissed

[fervent thunder]

I don't really like name debates / semantic debates
the ambiguity goes away if you think of things block by block
attention, layer norm, feed forward, softmax, max pool, up conv etc

they are both different combinations of those blocks, among others

[shell tendon]

but how are you gonna define a block 😛

[fervent thunder]

oh no

yeah the debate just shifts to a fight over attention blocks

[pastel iris]

Hey SD community, I am testing my parser for trace.json. It works well on my machine, but I don't have any nvidia gpus... or intel gpus. Can someone with an arc or geforce share a small trace.json? I want to make sure when I publish my guide that I'm not gonna need to make a v1.1 immediately after. (Should this be in tech support?)

[desert dagger]

@shell tendon is probably who you want to talk to

[pastel iris]

Ok, thanks.

Do they profile a lot?

[copper crystal]

maybe publish a beta guide and have a few experts look through it.

[pastel iris]

Yeah, I'm not sure how to beta a youtube vid. 😉

I can make it unlisted.

[copper crystal]

revising guides should be the expected norm imo. https://rentry.org/59xed3# this is oen of the better guides i've seen out there and the author made multiple updates to it over time as things changed. I wish more guides did this. Youtube videos will never do this since youtube inherently doesn't allow it

depending how you say it "no ideas" and "new ideas" both fit. XD

[fervent thunder]

could you be more specific about the tracing library you are using
cos most tracing libraries of all different varieties output a file called something like trace.json

[pastel iris]

No ideas, new idea, n UUID eas. 😉 (Very unique)

[pastel iris]

checking

[pastel iris]

I'm using the A1111 stable diffusion web ui. it appears to be chrome trace "almost compatible"

in the sense that it works with chrome since chome didn't follow the spec they wrote.

Internally, it seems to pipe the rocm tracer events into json.

so the parser I wrote works... but I wanted to make sure cuda works too and whatever intel's api (no hate, I just don't know it yet) is.

[fervent thunder]

ah okay I don't know about A1111 stuff so I can't talk about that

[pastel iris]

I think I have a stable diffusion log I got off of geforce now. That's a start.

[fervent thunder]

is there a particular variable you want to follow?

its not really clear what you are trying to do

Hang on, I'll dm you an unlisted draft video

Greetings everyone

Is this a good

time to get invested

[prisma escarp]

Hi, I am new to this space.
Trying out search and recolor feature for a project. The goal is to change color of the shoe while maintaining the texure of the material.
I am able to change color based on 1 color and the entire shoe changes the color but i want to get more control over this.
I have a specific color palette that i want to follow and i want to change specific parts of the shoe like the side stripes only or have the body be a different color and strip be another color.

Can anyone please help to achieving this.

[pastel iris]

@prisma escarp silly question: would simple photoship/gimp/krita + hue rotation on a selection do the job?

[copper crystal]

yeah that seems like something traditional graphic design and manipulation will manage fine.

[prisma escarp]

The thing is i have 100+ colors in my palette and i want to generate 1000+ images making different combinations so photoshop would be a pain in the butt i think

So i want to specifically search and recolor exact elements of the shoe and more importantly get the same color as my palette.
So far i have observed this only recognizes generic color names only. I even tried feeding it rgb, hexcode, etc.

Does anyone know how to get that control of the model

[copper crystal]

with traditional methods. generate an image thats close to what you want then post process it to bring it to your exact specifications.

there are systems like ic-light and controlnet color to affect things, but really, it's not that difficult with an editor

doing the work to realize your vision can often be a pain in the ass. thats no lie

[cedar salmon]

i mean cascade isn't Unet, sooo factual statement isn't factual

[fast sage]

Anyone have a easy solution to test all your loras in your comfy models dir? Or would I just have to write that to iterate over all of them using the API?

[fast sage]

I wrote the API to iterate over the loras.

[balmy hemlock]

Hello guy's, any good tools for auto detect and remove the watermark on a batch of images ? Thanks

[copper crystal]

AI isn't that smart really. each image you'd have to customize your approach for. If the watermark is always the same and in thes same part of the image, it could potentially be doable in a large batch operation, but you'd want to screen the results.

[edgy beacon]

Hello! I am using "Structure." The generated images have darker lighting compared to the uploaded images. How can I adjust the brightness to make them lighter? I would appreciate your advice.

Hello friends. I have a question, if you dont mind to answer. While using fluxgym, what exactly means epoch? for example: epoch 4/16 or current epoch 3, epoch: 7000

[worldly wind]

hello

[molten quest]

Anyone know if the SD3.5 Large Control Net for Depth will work with SD 3.5 Medium?

[fervent thunder]

Hello everyone

[quartz siren]

Nope, they are different models.

[muted remnant]

Hope i'm welcome

[foggy yacht]

not sure about fluxgym but for kohyaa. One epoch means one complete pass through the dataset. 4/16 might be 4 epochs complete out of 16

[quartz reef]

That's what I thought. Thanks mate

[mint fiber]

Hey all. Is there a way to do variables in a prompt in Forge like you can in Comfy? Like: a {red|blue|green} ball

[wispy cloak]

Amazon (Amazon Nova Canvas) and Luma Labs(Photon) release new image generation models, anyone tested it?

[fast sage]

yes, by wildcards.

[desert dagger]

photon's being posted to twitter - haven't seen any of amazon's stuff

[mint fiber]

Took some digging to discover that Wildcards is an extension that lets me use that formatting, as opposed to a formatting type itself. Thanks!

[fast sage]

Under the hood it's just a python module that splits your string and turns the [] into an array and iterates over it.

Anyone know why flux outputs always look the same for me?#🧣｜comfy-ui message

[young zealot]

anywhere to see benchmark for gpus for ai?

[surreal shuttle]

Is reactor best for faceswap or is there a better one?

[floral umbra]

Is there a discord for A.I in general? Like for any sort of A.I, text, image, video, 3d models and such? As i can't see there being a LLM chat here

[fast sage]

Anyone use Cloud GPUS? Looking at a good provider.

[desert dagger]

gallus is probably the discord you want

[rain herald]

Can you set LorAs strength higher than 1? and does it increase the effect?

[floral umbra]

Didn't find any discord bearing that name for "a.i" in mind

[floral umbra]

Yep. Slider intended loras for instance i've set as high as 20 or higher. But depends how they're built. Most breaks at 2 or above.

Go too high, and they will pop imagery either that looks deep fried, or literally pop images of their training dataset :P

[quartz siren]

TheBloke discord is pretty good and active

[quartz siren]

Runpod, vast.ai, and lambda labs are the most common from what I know

all provide pretty cheap prices, lambda is the cheapest but very hard to get

[desert dagger]

it's a private discord. i can DM you the invite if you want

[fervent thunder]

you might like Shadeform they do a marketplace that combines prices across providers
I'm linking to their Ycomb page cos it proves that they are legit and not malware/scammers https://www.ycombinator.com/companies/shadeform

what I would advise is making sure you have the security stuff sorted out properly before you start using it
each platform has a slightly different setup which they should explain
also stick to dedicated datacenter GPUs not the ones that are inside some guys kitchen

https://github.com/aria2/aria2really worth using aria2 for speeding up downloads

would recommend Backblaze to put your models

downloading from Civit or Hugging every time is not the way to go

[vernal tusk]

sup guys, i'm new to ai art, i need some help with some safetensor models (i've setup forge ui). i have the problem of getting poor quality images, is ther anyone that can help?

[fervent thunder]

don't know forge sorry

[vernal tusk]

i have the same problems in other ui's like a1111 (and in comfy ui it gives out an error)

[fervent thunder]

I can help in Comfy but not in a1111

[vernal tusk]

oh i see

[desert dagger]

you should probably ask in the #🤝｜tech-support channel. there are a number of forge people that wander through there.

[vernal tusk]

alright ty

[boreal dew]

so i heard comfyui got uh... infiltrated

i havent updated it in months, i know im good

[warm junco]

It wasn't comfyui but a Library called Ultralytics. Used by some extensions like the Comfyui-Impact-pack and Adetailer

[boreal dew]

When will it be fixed, do we know? Or has it already been fixed?

[warm junco]

Should be fixed now.
Ultralytics 8.3.43 is fixed.
Affected was 8.3.41 and 42

[boreal dew]

aw. sadge

[lethal tiger]

hello everyone

[fervent thunder]

hey

so im gradually learning sd1.5 but struggling to get past a few generation roadblocks regarding anatomy etc

is this the right channel to ask questions? ;P

[warm junco]

Hey, sure here or in #📝｜prompting-help

[fervent thunder]

alright thank you

Well, im mucking around trying to make people, I've read some stuff and I know that some stuff is a challenge, I use controlnets but even if I create say a pose in daz3d unless its front facing or back facing it struggles to get the anatomy right

like if I want people in different positions, sitting, laying down etc it will merge legs or create anomolies etc

and my second query is how to go about having multiple people lol, that seems to create monsterous outcomes haha

[warm junco]

The problem with multiple limbs and anomalies come from using a higher native resolution than the model is trained on.
1.5 models are trained on a 512x512 resolution.
So going to high over that it generates abnormalities or duplicates.
A fix is to use a lower resolution and then upscale the image or using SDXL models as they are trained on a 1024x1024 resolution

[fervent thunder]

oh okay, well im not sure I can run SDXL as I have a 4gb graphics card 1650ti

and then the other issue comes from if I run 512x512 then often I can't get standing people

I mean ive not tried it maybe it would work I don't know

I have 24gb ram

[warm junco]

Oh then you should use the Forge Webui.
With that you can use SDXL and Pony with 4gb vram.
It has some good optimisations for lower end cards

[fervent thunder]

oh, is that available offline, I use it on my other laptop currently with comfyui

[warm junco]

Try using 512x768 for example as a portrait format

[fervent thunder]

yup okay

[warm junco]

Yep

[fervent thunder]

thanks

any ideas on posing and correct anatomy in different positions sitting/laying etc?

like if I do img to img with daz3d I can JUST about get it to reflect the correct thing on lower denoise but higher i get monsters hah

[warm junco]

Controlnet should work good for that. Maybe you can show an example in #📝｜prompting-help to see what isnt right

[fervent thunder]

thanks , any recommendation on which controlnet is best for that kind of thing maybe?

[warm junco]

Openpose

[fervent thunder]

bettere than daz3d with canny/depth?

[warm junco]

Idk what daz3d is

[fervent thunder]

its a 3d people model tool basically

sorry

[warm junco]

Canny and depth are very strong maybe too strong to get variations right

Openpose just mimics the pose

[fervent thunder]

oh

and do checkpoint models know how to make a person that isn't just facing the camera standing?

[warm junco]

Yep that depends on the prompt too

But they are heavy influenced on portraits or people looking at the viewer

[fervent thunder]

ahhh okay it tends to be like legs, or merging arms if crossed etc

im going to try forge see how that goes hah thanks 😄

[warm junco]

Which model do you use?
Maybe try Dreamshaper v8

[fervent thunder]

with 1.5 I use epicphotogasm

[warm junco]

Ah okay

[fervent thunder]

find its most natural looking

[warm junco]

Yep thats good

[fervent thunder]

sidenote its so freakin fun lol, aside from the terrifiying anomolies but seeing it do what it does continues to amaze me tbh

[warm junco]

True ^^ its amazing and i've spend a lot of evenings generating images xD

[fervent thunder]

hah nice

im excited to see if I can get sdxl working on my measly hardware lol

[warm junco]

Someone with the same card got it working with Forge

[fervent thunder]

ok cool, I mean from what i've read it technically should work anyway but just slow, so maybe if forge makes it smoother that'd be great

[warm junco]

I guess so, but let me know

[fervent thunder]

any recommendations for natural realistic sdxl models to try please?

[warm junco]

Epicrealism xl or juggernaut XL are worth a try

[fervent thunder]

ok thanks

oh

epicrealism xl i'll start there lol as like the sd1.5 one

okay ive gone for realvis as got good reviews too will see if it works at all lol

also 6gb instead of 2gb for sd1.5 lol so the fun begins haha

[bleak yoke]

What is the LOLA model that everyone seems to like using? The one I often use is this one: LOLA on Pixai.
https://pixai.art/model/1725049259066326012

However, it isn’t available for download. I’d like to know if there’s a similar model with enhanced detail effects that is publicly available on Civitai.

I want my anime-style images to have more details and avoid blurriness.

This LOLA model has always performed really well, but unfortunately, it’s not available for download.

[fervent thunder]

So urm in other news how does upscaling work, where do I do the upscale part

[fervent thunder]

@warm junco hey!

so just a headsup I tried SDXL with comfyui on my 1650ti and it runs flawlessly, not sure why it says such high requirements

but i do have 24gb ram so maybe that offsets it

yeah goodbye scammer lol

[warm junco]

Nice, good to know!

Yea 24gb ram helps in that case too

[fervent thunder]

🙂

and its interesting it seems to need much less steps than sd1.5

i use 10-12 steps and it takes about the same time as sd1.5 did anyhow lol

much better prompt adherence

and more creative results

guess im just seeing this now when this is old news to the rest of the world lol

[fervent thunder]

where do I get controlnets for sdxl then please?

also are the fp16 ones enough or I need the full ones? get confused about that stuff lol

[desert dagger]

https://huggingface.co/h94/IP-Adapter/tree/main/sdxl_models

[fervent thunder]

wait is ipadapart the same as control net or

I think im wanting the one that reflects the detail not the look

[desert dagger]

can you explain what it is you're wanting to do please?

[fervent thunder]

Like in sd1.5 I was using controlnet depth, so using daz3d models and then prompting it to add more detail

but I was also using daz3d models to losely give an outline

@desert dagger

basically I want to control what happens in the scene at least with poses, I don't mind if the clothing is different etc just want more control 🙂

[desert dagger]

okay, poses are open pose - so you are likely wanting this https://huggingface.co/thibaud/controlnet-openpose-sdxl-1.0

[fervent thunder]

ahh yeah I explored the idea of that with sd1.5 but ironically couldn't find an offline pose maker tool to make the pngs hah

[desert dagger]

https://huggingface.co/lllyasviel/sd-controlnet-openpose this is for 1.5.

go to the files tab for the actual models

[fervent thunder]

yup thanks, so I can get the openpose models but the issue is more that I don't have a way of creating the multicoloured people thing to actually make poses offline heh

[desert dagger]

you can use a photo rather than the stick man

you might want to read through https://learn.thinkdiffusion.com/controlnet-openpose/

[fervent thunder]

oh and it will take the photo and make it

i seeeee hah

thanks 😄

[desert dagger]

welcome

[fervent thunder]

urm... on here which one do I need the 5gb safetensor one?

https://huggingface.co/thibaud/controlnet-openpose-sdxl-1.0/tree/main

hmmm okay so is a preprocessor the load controlnet bit in comfyui?

@desert dagger sorry many questions haha

I think so

so i can use openpose to grab the pose of an image I made in daz3d for example

[desert dagger]

yes. well I have, but I was using a comfyworkflow that had a node for it already. but yes, that's the idea

[desert dagger]

in this case, yes - it could be anything that works before the main processing.

[fervent thunder]

@desert dagger okay so when I used depth ones I just loaded a pic, used the depth controlnet and it would take the depth info, is that similar with open pose but it will work out the pose instead and apply that?

can I use multiple people?? 😄

[desert dagger]

no. one person. you'd have to composite in something like photoshop.

if you go to youtube and search on open pose sd1.5 thre are a number of good tutorials you might find helpful as well

[fervent thunder]

okay thanks @desert dagger , urm Im trying to use sdxl btw was just referencing where I started heh

[desert dagger]

there are good tutorials for sdxl as well, just search youtube for open pose sdxl

[hallow nacelle]

Is flux forge still bugged? there is this bug where the first generation takes decent amount of time like 30sec, and the subsequent generations take at least a few minutes

[desert dagger]

i would suggest watching several, not just watching one and trying ot follow along

[fervent thunder]

right okay thanks, i'll keep playing then

[desert dagger]

i haven't heard that anything has changed, but you might ask in #🤝｜tech-support

[fervent thunder]

Im currently downloading the openpose sdxl safetensor 5gb thing you sent me @desert dagger is that the correct controlnet then?

[desert dagger]

it should be, yes. and it goes in \ComfyUI\models\controlnet

[fervent thunder]

okay nice thanks!

5gb lol much bigger than the 2gb sd1.5 ones

is it openpose full or what actually as it doesn't say o.O

[desert dagger]

openpose full?

[warm junco]

Didnt heard about that one but for me it just seems like its loading the model into RAM. And for the next generations it doesn't need to do that

[fervent thunder]

like on that tutorial site you sent it shows different varients

like one for basic poses, others for including expressions etc

[desert dagger]

that i don't know - i assume it's the body pose, not an expression model

[fervent thunder]

okay thanks i'll muck around 🙂

[vital charm]

When I was looking for a way to prompt different regions of an image differently, I'm certain I saw something about Stable Diffusion being able to colorize black and white images, and I wish I took notes. Does anyone know which addon does this, and where I might read more about it? It would be cool to turn black and white sketches into colored art.

[quartz siren]

Nice blog for it: https://huggingface.co/blog/OzzyGT/diffusers-recolor

[oblique elk]

Well you could use the black and white image as a base for a sketch or lineart controlnet. Then prompt what you see on the image, an you should get a colorized version of the sketch. Depending on the strength of the input you can chose to give the ai a bit more creativity or to keep closer to the actual sketch

[wheat burrow]

Hey I got question about the license. So it talks about commericial use. Say someone hits the threshold then they can't afford to pay for the enteprise license that's used in a video game. Would it require deletion of the outputs used in the video game? Or does it just mean don't use the model anymore? This isn't using the AI model in the game, just the outputs from it.

[oblique elk]

I am pretty sure due to the lack of regulation and local laws it will be hard to find someone who will answer that question with no doubt.
As far as i read, the sd 3.5 Large model licence for example:
(iii) Ownership of Outputs. As between You and Stability AI, You own any outputs generated from the Models or Derivative Works to the extent permitted by applicable law.
But it is revoked if by any chance copyright etc. claims appear.

But as usual getting legal counsel from a discord chat might not be a good idea 🙂

[wheat burrow]

They make that part too confusing, which makes it difficult to just use it internally. They need to better explain that part to be more artist friendly. Since its really unreasonable to have someone delete all the previous works, especially if they then own the copyright after making human done modification to the output.

[fervent thunder]

legal counsel??

how can I help!

😛

[wheat burrow]

Nobody expects that to happen of course, but there is always the liability or chance of happening that assurances on situations like those hlep out with

[fervent thunder]

so urm... I tried SDXL on my apparently too weak system and it works great... maybe I do the same with flux??? 😛

[wheat burrow]

Like this isn't even a legal thing. Its mostly just wanting to clarify what they expect.

[fervent thunder]

email them?

genuinely

more likely to get a half decent response from the horses mouth I guess?

[wheat burrow]

Hm, that's why I came on the discord since they do have employees on this platform all the time.

[fervent thunder]

ahh okay fair

also @desert dagger thanks so much for your help the open pose thing is working amazingly lol

[oblique elk]

The biggest problem is that the licence includes parts about the model itself, training or modifing the model, using the model in webservices etc. and a small part that includes the usage of images created by the model.

[long stone]

Are any stable diffusion models good for realistic non-anime things or should I use some other AI art generator?
I use forge on stable diffusion.

Maybe Bing AI or the ChatGPT image gen.

I wish to make an AI art calendar for my mom so would be doing realistic dogs in dresses or something else silly.

[wheat burrow]

It's great for youtube thumbnails. Just ask for realistic version and everything set for none.

Oh specific formats for rectified flow models are a no no. Unlikely. Better off just using SD for a background then design the grid yourself.

[cedar salmon]

wut

[wheat burrow]

Just based on ChatGPT's interpretation : Under the Stability AI Community License Agreement, if your company exceeds the annual revenue threshold of $1,000,000 but does not secure an enterprise license, your license to use the Stability AI Materials and Derivative Works is terminated. The agreement specifies the following regarding termination (Section IV(f)):

Upon termination, you must delete and cease use of any Stability AI Materials or Derivative Works.
This means you would no longer be allowed to use:
The Stability AI models or tools directly.
Any derivative models created based on those Stability AI materials.
However, there is no explicit mention that outputs (e.g., game assets like textures or art created from the models) must be deleted if they were already generated before the termination. As stated in Section IV(c)(iii), outputs belong to you to the extent allowed by applicable law, so long as their creation complied with the license at the time they were generated.

In practical terms:

You cannot continue generating new assets or using the models/tools after the license terminates.
Previously created outputs/assets likely remain yours to use, assuming you were compliant with the license terms when they were created.
That said, if you're unsure or Stability AI contacts you regarding specific outputs, you might need legal advice to clarify your obligations.

Therefore with the outputs belonging to the user as long as it does as the law allows it which means previous outputs would be fine as long. In the case of terminated license it appears to not touch outputs, just the ai models. Hoping an employee would clarify that situation though.

[cedar salmon]

i doubt their lawyer is gonna hop on discord

[paper thunder]

hi, i am new in the ai world. i need help with it, i tried everything but failed to produce a quality thing. What i want is to produce some icons of a certain style for a videogame modification

[fervent thunder]

even if the company and their lawyer come and say its okay there is still risk a judge would rule the other way

[desert dagger]

:) you're very welcome. glad you got it working

[desert dagger]

like any other company, their lawyers are going to look at how much it costs to go to court, and how much they can reasonably expect to get someone to pay them that's broken their license, before deciding to go to court.

[brazen scarab]

Hey guys, what do you use for img2vid on A1111?

Something straightforward

[trail lion]

sorry dont use a1111 anymore, but cogvideox and ltx-video are a couple opensource video tools at the moment that do work in comfy/swarmui, but they are far from straightforward, as most workflows are doing LLM stuff which can take you down a really serious tech rabbit hole

[pastel iris]

I did more research. Stable diffusion uses pytorch tracing. If pytorch works, sd works.

Aka Yay!

[rugged river]

it is a marvel of development and AI that we can run an "all in one script" that downloads I swear to my soul millions of packages/files/hundreds of gigs of data and it can do it all without having a dependency mess up or a root folder getting misdirected or a stupid py file not loading.

90% of my issues stems from just getting it setup not even creating ideas or workflows

[scarlet umbra]

I'm working on a workflow for merging models, and for each model to be merged it generates an image, for far so good, 16 models merge into 8 nodes, that in turn merge into 4 nodes, down to one node, where the final marge takes place to be saved. I have a KSampler at each step, generating images to judge the progress so i can decide on the ratio or wheather or not to replace the model. having this many KSamplers takes a little bit of time, and i'd like the ability to disable the generation parts of each step. I know i can select them and CTRL + m, or CTRL + b. but I'd like to use a node for that. for example true might have it enabled, and it/they be linked to things that aren't needed for the merge. does anyone know of a node that can do this? is there a way of muting many ksamplers from a single switch?

[cedar salmon]

rgthree has muters/bypassers

[scarlet umbra]

kool, thanks. i'll look into them.

[ashen sleet]

gm

[fervent thunder]

okay new day lol was amazed at the jump in quality from sd1.5 to sdxl

and... found out you can use controlnet to create a NEW picture with the data rather than just img2img lol

so groundbreaking 😛

Also maybe controversial opinion but for a discord with 20000 users thats one mid logo lol

what is it even meant to be

anyway back on topic, would canny be a better option for getting the specific edges of an image as depth is good but seems to merge feet and toes etc

[warm junco]

Yes canny would be better

You can also adjust the Controlnet strength

[fervent thunder]

ok, higher or lower better? Im using the controlnet on a character but not img2img just transferring the preprocessed bit to a new latent

I guess I can muck around

[warm junco]

Depends on the use case

Try it out

[fervent thunder]

Open pose seemed to really struggle to get anything like the image unless it was img2img

yeah okay i'll keep mucking around

depth with new empty latent did work pretty decently but just a few anatomical errors with extra fingers etc lol @warm junco

[lucid bobcat]

Does anyone know if there's a comfyui node that lets you crop an image/choose a subsection of the image by drawing a rectangle rather than typing numbers? Maybe there's a workflow from mask -> bbox -> crop which would be the 2nd best option. How are you guys inpainting large images that first have to be cropped and then reassembled into the full image?

[lucid bobcat]

You're a bit late to do that. Getting good quality images is hard and takes time. Maybe you could do something like take existing photos and inpaint them, change art style etc. So rather than making an image of a dog, take an existing one and add the dress with inpainting. If you don't care about quality though, you can get silly images quickly with stable diffusion.

[ivory wolf]

hey guys, I'm building an AI model that can generate headshot based on flux, lora, and controlnet. Currently we are training and building the model. Is there anyone who is interested in this kind of project or has done something similar before? We can connect to collab or smth. Btw we are a dev agency and we wanna build this project to put in our portfolio, but we are also trying to monetize from it by creating tiktok videos and launching on other social medias.

[daring hatch]

the best inpainting workflow is just using krita ai diffusion instead of a million nodes

If I choose euler simple I get a black background (!!!). If I choose ddim_uniform I get a bright greyish background as prompted. It seems to have to do with the choice of the initial noise. Does simple start with a black image? I'm using Flux btw.

always remember that the terms of a license agreement protect both the user and the company. they can't terminate the license if you've not breached it

if things are potentially left vague, european law says the licensee gets to determine the interpretation. this is an old concept too and it likely applies in other courts. you can't just leave it vague and then make up specifics later on

[fervent thunder]

still not tried it yet but what is better for details and the positioning of characters limbs etc correctly, depth or canny?

i find like depth seems to not show face etc well, and adds extra fingers etc

[fast sage]

Lad said you’re a bit late to do that? What….

Ai is only improving and growing so you’re not late.

All models can do what you’re after, have a machine with +8 gb vram and run comfyui and find a model on citivai or hf. Bing is more for 1:1 not the proper aspect for a calendar.

[fast sage]

No unless you’re upscaling a bunch of times

[fast sage]

Is this for outputs or a step in your workflow?

[lucid bobcat]

Step in workflow. So I butchered something together that let's me crop by drawing a rectangle with the mask editor. Works good enough. Doesn't work for outpainting though.

[zenith knot]

Hi

[copper crystal]

How is comfyui these days? What i don't like about it is every work flow requires custom nodes and that concerns me. Which was proven to be a smart concern a few times, including very recently.

I dont want to look up a popular new workflow that does flux or sd3.5 work, and have to install 100 nodes from the author's library. Or even the sdxl / sd15 animation nodes. I'm okay with vetting a few node packs and using those, but i'd really rather have a trusted node pack instead of installing new code unvetted code all the time.

If i go look at popular community workflows right now, what will i find?

It's less flexible but i've been using forge for months because it's static and not easy to compromise since no one makes extensions for it

[lucid bobcat]

You can use all main models with core nodes. If you use people's favorite workflows you'll obviously also have to use their favorite nodes. If you don't want that you'll have to create your own workflows or edit existing ones.

[cedar salmon]

i usually tame down others workflows and replace with more basic nodes, like not have to use 3 node packs when you can get the functionality out of one

[copper crystal]

i was thinking of getting into it again since i hadn't seen an exploit since last time. I thought that the attack surface was taken seriously . But this new attack through pypy hit more than just one node.

[lucid bobcat]

You could visit the NSFW section on civitai and see what models give great results. I know that Pony is still (the most) popular, but I've also seen NSFW loras for Flux.

[slender vault]

lol any of the pony models of illustrious, dont let the name throw you off its just a name

[brittle geyser]

Out of curiosity, what would you recommend as a guide for an old photo restoration if I used forge?

[sharp fulcrum]

i'm out here using a build of forge from april 2023 because new forge stinks and a1111 is slower

[warm junco]

There is also reforge

For people who prefer the old forge but want updates

[split wharf]

Where should I ask for help with comfui's depth anything? 😅 sorry new here

[stone moss]

[abstract quarry]

If you want custom workflows, use comfyui, otherwise I would use Invokeai. It's by far the best ui for stable diffusion with a lot of built-in features. It's just lacks a plugin ecosystem.

[proud dirge]

Hello everyone! I haven't used SD for a year or so, and now I have questions.

1. Which model (SD 1.5, SDXL, SD3.5, etc.) would be the best for 16 GB VRAM and what are the differences between them? If style is relevant, I want to generate either generally-painterly pics, or painterly anime. I can give an example if requested.
2. Do LoRAs work between different SD versions, and if not, where to best make a LoRA for the correct SD version?
3. Back to my painterly style question, is CivitAI still the best place to get models for certain styles?

[abstract quarry]

the best model is Flux, but the only thing flux is bad in is painterly style 😅

there is Pixelwave, a flux custom model which is good in paintings

2. no, different loraa for different versions

[proud dirge]

Thank you! Will it fit in 16 GB VRAM?

[abstract quarry]

with quantization, yes

for anime you could also use pony, an xl model. people use it mostly for creepy porn, but it's good at anime and painting

[proud dirge]

Thank you for replying! Where to train a flux LoRA? I did my previous trainings in Colab, but I can't seem to find a Colab for flux LoRAs.

[tall cloak]

Hello everyone

I just came here, everything here is unfamiliar, I need some time to get familiar with it

Why is no one saying anything?

[sweet ore]

i'm about to pull the trigger on a fancy canon printer. I'm struggling to decide between the imagePROGRAF PRO-1100 and the PRO-300, anyone have experience with high quality printers?

[rigid hull]

I have a doubt can I use stable diffusion on mobile

For free

[gentle prairie]

weird, my last batch on auto1111 webui of like 50 pic was doubled... each images was in my folder twice, and i didn't change any settings i think, which one would do that?

[tawdry schooner]

https://youtu.be/tEduGlhE2Po

[fervent thunder]

how do you make videos with stable diffusion?

[granite badger]

hello for creating story books what is better automatic1111 or comfyUI??

[copper crystal]

maybe thats a good idea. i stick to forge because it lacks a plugin ecosystem and thus has a lower attack surface

[cedar salmon]

it has an addon ecosystem so...

[copper crystal]

not really. none of them work and nothing new ever comes out for it. If by ecosystem you mean, the last vestige of life after an oil spill ... sure

[cedar salmon]

sounds safer in a if you like to eat expired food way

[copper crystal]

lol i never said safer. but yeah. more like "i been sticking to forge" and you have brought up a good point about invoke

the other sticking point about invoke... does it have flux controlnet and sd3 controlnet support? I know they were saying that flux can't be refined or controlnets an all that when it first came out

[abstract quarry]

they always need a bit longer to implement new features

I don't know if they already have flux/sd controlnet, but if not it will probably be in there soon

[copper crystal]

i dont think they were cliaming "not yet". i think it was a distinct "impossible" iirc

[abstract quarry]

they did when flux was released

which was bullshit and everyone knew it

[copper crystal]

i caught a super sussy friend request from this person. No lead in to it. I asked them why they're adding me and they're staying silent. i smell a crypto/romance scammer. but i'm also ok with being wrong about this. Unsolicited DM's are sussy enough, let alone unsolicited friend requests

blocked to be safe

[slender vault]

no

[copper crystal]

Apple seem to be the only phone manufacturer that's actually innovating in that field. You can run SD models on iphones

android really sucks these days. All that google has innovated there is ways for ads to track you better and to take over your phone screen more

not surprising really. 90% of google's income is from ads

[gentle prairie]

my god sometime the UI just stops at 98% and refuse to finish the process, even closing and reloading doesn't work, i have to completely restart the cmputer, it's annoying

does the generated pictures have a seed attached to them? So than i can reuse it tomorrow without having to go through image2image

[rough hedge]

Has anyone applied quantization aware training to any version of stable diffusions? I want to apply the code but haven't found any one applied QAT. every existing codes and papers are for post training quantization

Moreover, is there a chatroom or other discord channel for developers that wants to implement and fine tune diffusion models?

[gusty crown]

uh

[jaunty surge]

Hi guys, has anyone tried any instruction-guided image editing model?

I have tried instruct-pix2pix and its variants, they dont do well on image editing

[copper crystal]

that's the final VAE step. You'll likely see in your task man that it's going far above your memory capacity and filling shared memory. Try finding a tiled vae solution

[gentle prairie]

what's a tiled vae, also why does it happen even though the task is the same as before and i'm not opening more stuff on my computer?

[copper crystal]

i'm entirely not sure of the second question. different latent spaces need more math than others i guess. The first though, it does fancy memory stuff so that it's calculating less of the image conversion at one time.

A vae is what takes the latent pixels and converts them into real pixels. The model operates in a higher dimensional number space than standard rgb pixels. Variable Auto Encoder. Neat stuff.. but yeah.. if you use forge, it's built in as multidiffusion. in comfyui i'm not sure what nodepack is used for it.

[hearty bough]

Peace all! Good to be here!

[brisk mirage]

Anyone here managed to get stable diffusion running on intel arc gpu? was thinking about building a cheap dedicated rig for ai stuff

[rigid hull]

Is any way to use stable diffusion for free in low end laptop

[copper crystal]

better to get a cheap nvidia card if it's going to be specifically for ai. CUDA is just too engrained of a library. Everything benefits from it that it's just shooting yourself in the foot to avoid it.

[wide tendon]

are there any actual generalist Flux finetunes?

I mean, all ages / genders of people + other things. Can be SFW or not

[brisk mirage]

only problem is the low end cards skimp on vram

ain't buying 4070s for just ai workloads

[copper crystal]

better than an arc with 24gb since arc don't get cuda

but if you want to avoid cuda, i'm a big belieiver in allowing people to make a mistake

[brisk mirage]

a pity the openvino fork is quite behind the AUTOMATIC1111 original

[copper crystal]

since theres no cuda, those projects are neglected. Low performing == low user base.

if your goal is to build a machine intended for ML, theres no reason to avoid it. Its funny to me that you won't buy a 4070, but are looking at arc cards. none of which are as powerful as a 4070. even used nvidia cards are better for this purpose than arc.

but hey, you're gonna do what you're gonna do

[warm junco]

You can try SDnext. It supports openvino

[gentle prairie]

for animatediff, how can i prevent the video to morph to a completely different picture after a certain amount of frame? Like two characters suddenly morph into one

[eternal hill]

amazed to be here

it might be quite shameless of me but i require some assistance in lcm control net

[gentle prairie]

any tips on how to get multiple hair colors when generating multiple images? if put more than one color, the hair of the character will have this color mixed

also any prompt to get natural ginger/redhead hairs? Using both these prompt doesn't work well

[brisk mirage]

really wish there is a way to generate videos like Sora locally, OpenAI's 200/month is way too expensive

[gentle prairie]

weird, i'm not using a seed, but suddenly it kept generating the same character (same hair style, hair color, and so on)

[fervent thunder]

Hey so not sure if I’m doing so,etching wrong, but I can get depth sdxl control net to work but canny doesn’t seem to get applied whether that’s new latent or imgtoimg

Am I missing something here?

[fervent thunder]

Ok so I’m trying tcontrolnwt union just found let’s see how this goes

[sterile orchid]

Hi! I just want to be part of the comunnity, and that is all

[lavish iron]

has anyone got any SDXL or Flux kohya config presets for training ~100 images at 1024 resolution on a 4070 please? my attempts render mutants

seems wasteful to let the card train for 8 hours just to produce 3 legged, 4 arms & 12 finger mutant renders!

[steel depot]

hello

need somones help for an 3D Character Prototype

i have the base, just wanna some detailed changes

[gentle prairie]

Question, why is doing 2 batch count works, but doing 20 makes the webui completely stuck at the first image? Why does the later use more Vram and get stuck? Shouldn't they be generated one by one? Why does the amount matter?

Hey @shell tendon does your ClownsharKSampler support ModelSamplingDiscrete? after connecting it to your ClownsharKSampler, the results were the same as not having it, I use that node for the v_prediction and eps prediction settings for the NoobAI models to work better

epsilon prediction in training text-to-image models refers to the process of predicting the noise component (ε) added to the original image (x0) at a given timestep (t)

Accurate epsilon prediction enables the model to progressively refine the generated image by iteratively denoising and reconstructing the original image

[silk loom]

@fervent thunder Why send me a private message?

[fast sage]

The batches have to go through each node to que up the batch and then it's stored in memory (that's why you see the seed randomize each "batch"), I would guess you have some heavy nodes in your workflow?

[gentle prairie]

no idea, just using some prompts

doing like 4 batch count it works fine, 20 fuck it up...

[fast sage]

Did you read anything I wrote? 😄

[copper crystal]

he's using webui not comfyui i think

[gentle prairie]

yeah and i don't know what that means, i'm a beginner, lol

yeah webui

[copper crystal]

main character syndrome when you think the whole world has the same workflow as you

typical comfy enjoyer

[gentle prairie]

must be comfy

[copper crystal]

did you get a multidiffusion like i suggested? are you using forge or automatic?

[fast sage]

_ imaginne Not knowing its the exact same backend code_

[fast sage]

So your memory is most being all used.

[copper crystal]

forge? not for a while now. he gutted comfyui code out because he was accused of stealing it. now all the improvements he makes can't easily be ported to comfyui

[fast sage]

Same response (all your nodes are stored when queing)

[copper crystal]

misinformation about forge? check. typical comfy enjoyer

[fast sage]

Do you still not understand how ques work?

[copper crystal]

forge and comfy have been separate codebases for a while now

[gentle prairie]

yeah i know that, i'm just wondering how to avoid it if i want to do a lot of images while i do something else

[copper crystal]

after the stolen code accusations happened, the author gutted the core and rewrote it

[fast sage]

Do you still not understand how ques are stored?

[copper crystal]

are you using forge then? or a1111's webui?

flux or sdxl?

[gentle prairie]

a1111 webui

[copper crystal]

ahh i only got forge which has s completely different back end

[fast sage]

Lad still doesn't understand how ques are stored 😄

[gentle prairie]

so you mentionned multidiffusion, that can upscale without too much VRAM apparently

do i jjust need tto install that?

https://github.com/pkuliyi2015/multidiffusion-upscaler-for-automatic1111?tab=readme-ov-file#tiled-diff-txt2img

[copper crystal]

yeah thats the extension. it also just helps with first pass generations too

[gentle prairie]

what's that?

[copper crystal]

not upscaling. just your initial image

[gentle prairie]

yeah i have zero issue when not upscaling

[copper crystal]

you've already demonstrated that you're outta your depth here. you're still claiming that forge is comfyui based, which it isn't.

also he's not even using forge. smart guy

@gentle prairie my forge instance is hammering out a 20 count batch fine. it typically has better memory management than base automatic1111. do you think you'd mind installing forge ui?

[gentle prairie]

the link i just posted earlier doesn't work when using "installing via URL", unlike all the other extensions 😦

[copper crystal]

remove the ?tab=...... bit

[gentle prairie]

thanks!

[copper crystal]

how much vram do you have?

[gentle prairie]

10 gb

it's weird cause sometime it works, and sometime not at all, despite not having more stuff open that could eat up VRAM

while using the same prompts

[copper crystal]

liike you said, a batch count should do them one after another. so i'm unsure why it's catching memory issues when you do 20 as opposed to less. weird issue and i got nothing to offer for advice there other than it must be the poor memory handler of automatic

[gentle prairie]

oh, i thought that was normal, well shit, xD

huuum, do you have a tutorial for the tield diffusion thing? the link doesn't say much

[copper crystal]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t5nSdosYuqc first result on google but olivio is usually good about it

[gentle prairie]

yeah i was hoping to find a written one, if there's nothing else i guess i have no choice

[copper crystal]

i like the written ones too lol. glad to find another written tut enjooyer. but they're so few out there

[white hamlet]

Hello guys! After a search on the discord I can't find the info
One of my main point to choose a model is to know if it has been train on copyright data or not.
Is there any info on this? Thanks

[copper crystal]

https://civitai.com/articles/545/how-to-avoid-vram-exhaustion-and-prevent-vram-spikes this tut goes over the extension an some other stuff

[gentle prairie]

thanks, i'll check it out!

just tried, doesn't seem to work, same Vram usage

[copper crystal]

you might like sdxl on forge ui. i'm telling you it's a lot more memory efficient of a ui

its built on top of a1111 so it'll be familiar too

[gentle prairie]

wait i needed to modify the .bat file

just did, and it seems to work, slightly, was using 8.5 gb VRAM rather than over 10... but that doesn't fit what the page was saying about under 6 gb VRAM

[fast sage]

Storing prompts has nothing to do with vram it’s the browser ram for js most likely

Allocating the vram is for storing the model

[fast sage]

Lad still has no idea what python is

[copper crystal]

you offer nothing

[copper crystal]

dude you thought webui uses a comfy back end still. and now you're saying the browser is eating vram... bro..

you really are outta your depth here. no understanding of the topic but you're roleplaying like you do. must be fun

[copper crystal]

good luck with your endeavors. you can be sure that code is jerking you around outta some sort of ego flex. disregard everything they say for your own sanity. trust published guides that you can be sure other people have benefited from

[gentle prairie]

yeah no worries, thanks

[reef plover]

Is stable diffusion dead?

[copper crystal]

no its just less popular because the novelty has worn off

[hidden sparrow]

Is it possible to use AI models to enhance an existing photo without altering its content? Specifically, I am looking for adjustments to aspects such as colors, lighting, sharpness, and overall style, rather than modifying objects within the image. Can Stable Diffusion or any other models achieve this?
