#

why does is the server bot way better than any other version of sdxl you see online

#

clipdrop is probably the second best

#

and then all the other "sdxl" models output images like sd1.5 would

#

like wtf is this

pure crystal
#

post a png file from comfy, we'll help

#

hey guys, I was stuck at home due to terrorism in my country so I finished all my workflows:

#

should I upload these?

hardy cipher
#

are you asking about uploading the images or the workflow?

#

images are quite impressive

#

looking closer, I guess the workflow isn't that complex

#

unless I'm missing something perhaps

indigo carbon
hardy cipher
#

ahh. let me look again

indigo carbon
hardy cipher
#

that makes more sense. I've been working on some image blending stuff myself. but want to get a couple nodes worked out before I put it out there

#

considered uploading to civitai. there's so much clickbaity stuff on there, but mine does what theirs claim to do, lol

#

learned a bit about the clipvision and ipadapter stuff. it's pretty interesting

indigo carbon
#

I feel like I might have nailed it, the only issue with publishing this will be the requirements being tricky

#

it's really seamless, I wish it would've been simple to set up. If I'd upload my 3 latest workflows to CivitAI I'll have to write instructions for how to setup an inference to run them

pure crystal
#

I'll test

#

I have an idea for a mixed image

indigo carbon
pure crystal
#

I meant the workflows on my comfy

indigo carbon
#

like I mentioned; this isn't easy to set up. When I'll upload my latest workflows to CivitAI I'd have to make a detailed setup guide to use them

pure crystal

indigo carbon
#

[grid texture] + [positional image] = usually not a good thing, but it sure did blend them

pure crystal
#

definitely, I think that pizza texture is asking too much

#

awesome

indigo carbon
hardy cipher
#

my image mixer mixin as well

indigo carbon
# indigo carbon

this is about the quality you'd usually expect from my latest workflow; when the size of IMG_A=IMG_B, even the subjects in the images will fuse with one another

jolly trellis
#

I just joined this server. I cant find a guide on how to do i2i with sdxl

heady vale
jolly trellis
#

Thanks. Im setting up sdxl on my pc now. Is there any way to do it with the bot?

hardy cipher
#

needs some fine tuning

heady vale
#

I havent used the bot in a long time. I think it had something

indigo carbon
#

yeah, it seems that when the sizes of the blended images are identical, the subject in the final image will actually be if the two subjects fused

hardy cipher
#

well you know it's autocropped right? I'm assuming so since you are using square images

#

but the clip vision encoding requires square images, at least in it's current setup

indigo carbon
hardy cipher
#

well close enough

indigo carbon
#

that's some of the operations happening in the dirty node work

#

it still seems it works best when the image sizes are equal though, I feel like if I'll have a node that streaches both images to 1024^2 it might work even better though

hardy cipher
#

I also make them equal size and dimensions

#

all pixel counts identical

#

here's what my blender is currently blending

#

mostly add images in groups of 4. but if I have an odd one out I'll just add something else to the 4th slot

#

try to choose the images so each group of images has a similar style or thing going on

indigo carbon
#

my goal before I'll upload it would be to achieve this quality of blending while also allowing the image sizes to be more dynamic

#

because when the sizes are equal to each other, I'd say this is damn close to being mastered

hardy cipher
#

you mean input images I'm assuming?

#

well you could perhaps use some sort of transformation trickery so they wouldn't get indiscriminantly cropped by the clip vision processing

indigo carbon
#

I'm not sure if IPA will be effected if input images will be streached. that might be a viable solution

#

I could always have another part of the workflow that just does zero-shot image input without a prompt to get an exact image with different image sizes, but that might be extra work

#

the zero-shot workflow I made isn't working better or worse with any input size, so I could make use of that

hardy cipher
#

I was thining about it, and seems like some kind of dynamic or variable stretching/contracting could work

#

where it leaves the middle of the image less altered

#

and increases in magnitude near the edges

#

padding is possible but seems like it wouldn't work out well

indigo carbon
#

personally, I always make images in the same size, so this doesn't effect me, but if I'd want to publish this; I'd also have to make some kind of mechanism that prepares IMG_A and IMG_B to be in the exact same size before the actual blending

hardy cipher
#

3 options are cropping, padding, or transforming

indigo carbon
#

yo, streaching to 1024^2 actually worked

#

peculiar.

hardy cipher
#

The key is to have all the elements of the image within range so the clip vision can encode them

#

It cuts it up into little squares and outputs tokens for each one. At least that's my understanding. Might be more going on though

#

and then if you're using ipadapter plus rather than regular ipadapter it adds an extra dimension of tokens, although not exactly sure what they're doing just yet

#

it also seems like it'd be possible to train a clip vision model to analyze an image and determine ideal cropping so that the main subject of the image is retained. but not sure how the training would be set up

#

but if that were figured out it'd really streamline the process

indigo carbon
#

I automated the streaching, now it takes the values from [emptylatentimage] and uses them to resize imageA and imageB, it seems to be even better now

hardy cipher
#

nice. yeah. those look clean. have you tried it out with two images that seem like they wouldn't work together? curious what it'd do with those

indigo carbon
#

this was easier than I thought haha

hardy cipher
#

glad to see it's working. I hadn't actually messed with the stretching much myself, but it seemed like it'd work with the way it encodes the images. but that's actually working better than I would have expected

indigo carbon
#

these two images are being streached like hell while preparing, and the quality is still about as good as when they are initially the same

#

so now it's independent on input image size

hardy cipher
#

Excellent. So cropping might not be the move with this stuff. I guess it's case by case, but not sure when cropping would be preferable now

#

has me rethinking my node ideas

indigo carbon
#

even though the input images are entirely different sizes, it still blends the subject at a similar quality to when the input images are actually identical in size

hardy cipher
#

on another note, what sort of approach do you take with freeU? haven't really messed with that much yet. I've been looking into other things recently

indigo carbon
#

the conditioning for the second K_sampler stage is just zero'd out positive with a typical negative

hardy cipher
#

gotcha. I actually haven't noticed a consistent degradation of quality with IPA_plus, but we might be looking at images differently. also, I've found input images to really have a large impact, and if cfg is too high it really goes downhill quickly

indigo carbon
hardy cipher
#

yeah, I need to mess with it more. just get tunnel vision sometimes and only focus on a couple things

#

have you played with this at all? noticed when it got added a while back, but only started messing with it a while ago

indigo carbon
hardy cipher
#

not even sure. I just decided to see what it'd do, lol. might look at the code to see if I can decipher anything. although I have a feeling it'll be some craziness I won't fully grasp

#

added 4 new images to my blender

indigo carbon
#

it's sooo seamless man, now all I'll need to do is just write a detailed guide for how to install and use it then it's ready to go public

pure crystal
#

try a real person and a cartoon (just wondering what will happen)

hardy cipher
#

the cfg is too damn high

#

but like the detail level I guess

#

I think I might add the next 4 images posted just to see what they'll do

#

it was spitting out abominations like this yesterday

#

if I ever find a place where I'm actually content with the results I might consider posting it somewhere. but have ideas that I still haven't figured out how to implement

indigo carbon
#

just places him in the cartoon, it didn't have any other subject to blend with, so it just placed the subject in the environment in imageB

hardy cipher
#

well gotta put him in there with shrek

indigo carbon
#

a beautiful, abomination

hardy cipher
#

I go for abominations. I'm a bit of an expert

hardy cipher
#

just lovely

#

lol. that's about as accurate as you could get tbh. could be a little more green maybe

indigo carbon
#

that's miles ahead of MJ blend imo

hardy cipher
#

yeah. I don't know how any closed source will keep up with all the new innovations of things. they'll shoot ahead for a minute, but doesn't seem to last long

#

like dall-e 3. I'll admit it's fun to play with, or was. but then microsoft just crushed it with guardrails

indigo carbon
#

maybe the model itself can rival SDXL, but when it's being controlled so aggressively; fuck no.

hardy cipher
#

it's only strength really was that it's working with gpt-4

indigo carbon
hardy cipher
#

but I checked it out again yesterday and the most tame, PG type prompts were deemed too offensive

indigo carbon
#

however then comes the issue of running SDXL and LLaMa on the same machine; not easy.

hardy cipher
#

curious about gpt-4V now

indigo carbon
#

also I think SD3(or whatever it'll be named after the approaching epoch..) will use BLiP instead of CLiP; this means that IPA won't be necessary to enable it to have images as inputs

hardy cipher
#

why not both?

pure crystal
#

LORAs trained on dalle3 outputs with their prompts as a style helpers would be a fun project

indigo carbon
hardy cipher
#

prompting is so 2 months ago

pure crystal
#

they use GPT4 prompts and outputs to make Llama LORAs and other models, it's just a technique out there

hardy cipher
#

I need to figure out llama loras

indigo carbon
#

anyways, BLiP can enable a diffusion model to fetch resources for the internet for certain generations. BLiP diffusion can do txt2img like SD1.5, it can blend images almost as good as my IPA workflow, and even zero-shot. it's insane how making a diffusion model that uses BLiP instead of CLiP can increase capabilities

pure crystal
#

got my first access suspended for 1 hour from dalle3. the fun is over

hardy cipher
#

well the drawback is it's computationally more expensive right?

indigo carbon
#

SD3 will probably use a component like BLiP instead of CLiP

pure crystal
#

I've compared a lot of blip and clip output, their outputs are both useful in prompting. clip is most often single words, blip is more like the caption on an image for people who do not have sight. clip tells you the things it sees in an image, blip explains the image

indigo carbon
pure crystal
#

yes I know

indigo carbon
#

the only model that uses BLiP for text encoding is BLiP diffusion; which is just SD1.5 built with BLiP instead of CLiP. it has more capabilities and is better than 1.5

hardy cipher
#

hmm, I'm just not sure how that would work. they kind of do different things.

#

not saying it wouldn't work, obviously

pure crystal
#

no I just mean the tokens they spit out make good overall prompts and combine well

indigo carbon
#

not mentioned in that tweet; it also blends images and can do pure txt2img

#

slightly better than SD1.5 at txt2img

hardy cipher
#

well their architectures differ

indigo carbon
#

so I'd think SD3.0 would not be about being better at the stuff we currently do; it would be able to do more stuff in general.

hardy cipher
#

also, clip is more wordy. blip is straight to the point, but not necessarily ideal for detailed prompts and things. well maybe the new blip model is, I don't know

#

also, I think blip is more for image to text right?

indigo carbon
#

SD3.0 won't necessarily use BLiP; they might just make an entirely new component that solves all the multimodal issues

#

like, we sure did just now master img+img, also img+txt, and entirely txt2img, all using SDXL. but never have them interact with eachother

hardy cipher
#

waiting on audio to image

eternal fog
#

You could technically do that already

#

Use whisper to transcribe your speech and feed it into SD as a prompt

hardy cipher
#

well sort of

#

well I've interrogated images I've made and then put that in as input for an audio model

indigo carbon
hardy cipher
#

usually creates incredibly cursed sounds

#

I don't think monolithic models are the way. but that's just my opinion

indigo carbon
hardy cipher
#

I very much prefer the idea of dynamic specialized models that can be swapped out as needed

#

well they obviously need to work well together. but I think of it like a car or something. maybe the base will be the same, but then users can swap out parts as needed, or to suit their particular preferences

indigo carbon
#

So maybe if SD3.0 will use components like that it could do everything that we can stretch SDXL to do (this includes image blending, txt2img, and zeroshot.) while gaining more capabilities

hardy cipher
#

well I know of no reason why it couldn't work. I was just mainly thinking that there's a reason it hasn't really been done on a wide scale before

#

Why is SDXL soooo bad at eyes....

pure crystal

pick a face detailer workflow for your tool of choice. they work very well and dont add much gen time, they also give you a lot of freedom for face detail at different subject sizes

# pure crystal I'll be 👀 ing for it

it uses an optimization called AIT that doubles the speed on 3000 series and almost tiples it on the 4000 series without degradation in quality, it's compatible only on rather specific machines; but it's already in the image's I sent metadata if you want to try it out

#

My realism LoRA I started training a few months back still HANDILY beats the best realism SDXL fine-tunes out there that I have found for realism portraits

I am gonna be updating it from 90 images to 500 images once it cools down where I am. My final goal is 2500 images and full text encoders training for a full fine-tune in a LoRA

crisp owl
#

ETA?

high skiff
#

For the 500? 2-3 weeks if I can

#

I am hand selecting 4k+ res images and hand hand captioning for various things lose poses, color grading, zoom levels, and all that

#

A cinematic portrait photograph of a pretty young black bride standing in a grass field of grass and white rose bushes in front of a white plantation house

1 is base, 2 is my LoRA, 3 is realism Engine XL, 4 is real stock photo

#

It's trained on professional grade retouched portraits and wildlife photographs.

It's best improvement is background consistency, and directional lighting

#

A cinematic photograph of a snow leopard inside a cave on the side of a mountain

Base, mine, realism Engine, real stock photo

#

Lost the prompt for this one, but it's mine, realism Engine, real stock photo, and real vision XL

#

It should be noted, it's not fully trained for mine, so fine details are not quite there just yet. But here is mine vs realism Engine vs real stock photo

#

This is done with just 90 images. So the next one of 500 images should be a lot better, and then the final 2500 image one should be insane

#

@crisp owl hope this is promising!

vital ermine

#

Also, it should additionally be stated that 75 of the 90 images are portraits, and the 15 others are random wild life, so it's not even like this model has seen a ton of animals and it's already that good with them

My LoRA also cranks up detail in water color and other paintings.

the BeamNG devs said they're going to start with FSR3 then do other tech later

vital ermine
#

They then went heavy into why the 5090 is going to really disappoint gamers and went into all kinds of technical stuff.

heady vale
#

fsr3 is out for 2 games currently

nimble heart
#

the source code isn't out yet

#

so it's not easy to compare against dlss

vital ermine
#

I lay odds dlss will wipe the floor with it. The reason is cross platform comes with a price AND dlss actually has hardware made for it not piggy backed.

#

I hope I am wrong but I doubt it for this

heady vale
#

from reviews fsr3 adds latency, adds shimmering, adds juddering. overall the image quality is worse. its way too early and need more work

vital ermine
#

pure is right

#

that latency is pretty high too

nimble heart
#

isn't dlss3 also super latent if you don't use reflex?

vital ermine
#

shimmering I saw them zoom in and yes, plus not as crisp. how in the heck you can have shimmering and blur I dunno

nimble heart
#

my 1070 can't run that shit so I've never used it tbf

vital ermine
#

reflex is in my B450 ancient mobo so I was surprised.

nimble heart
#

I'll try fsr 3 sometime once it comes to some games people actually care about.

heady vale
nimble heart
#

no

#

faked frames will never be less latent than native

#

native is presented immediately

vital ermine
#

personally, I haven't been a gamer for almost 6 years now so all of the game stuff doesn't really interest me.

nimble heart
#

unless you mean like dlss 120 vs native 40 or some shit

#

then maybe it could I guess

#

IDK I doubt I'd even use FSR 3's frame gen for any time. It'd mostly just be an FSR 2.1 upgrade

#

I'm on 4k60 not 1080p120

heady vale
nimble heart
#

that's

#

not even frame gen

heady vale
#

the top native is with reflex

nimble heart
#

of course running a lower res makes it faster

#

FSR 2 will be faster by that measurement

heady vale
#

native withut reflex is bottom. much higher

nimble heart
#

why does that matter?

#

the real comparison is the first 3

#

turning down res makes it faster and adding fakes frames slows it right back down again

heady vale
#

well completely native is the bottom number

nimble heart
#

it's reflex lowering the latency not dlss3

heady vale
#

in this case with cyberpunk most people would be running with dlss + FG + reflex. so the result is less latency. I guess you could say its the same, but its not higher latency

#

then with fsr3. not the same game as its not available for cyberpunk

nimble heart
#

framegen actually gets lower?

heady vale
#

ah yeah your right. I remember them saying its worse? dunno

nimble heart
#

"native AA" is just running the smoothing filters without upscaling so its gonna be a bit worse. I dont know if DLSS has an equivalent mode but in your cyberpunk test they used upscaling for everything so I wouldn't compare the native AA numbers

heady vale
#

in any case the image quality suffers. its too early in development

nimble heart
#

but yea im sure the quality isnt as good as the hyper-specialized dlss. FSR 1 sucked ass lol.

heady vale
#

dlss1 was bad also

nimble heart
#

2.2 or whatever Cyberpunk uses looks pretty good to me.

#

I'm going from 1080 -> 4k though so probably an easier jump than what most people are doing

#

looks pretty good with all the RT shit maxed out

heady vale
#

cyberpunk is amazing. love it

#

really heavy on your pc though especially the cpu after the recent update

nimble heart
#

with ultra RT I can use the reflections on the walls to see around corners its dope. works nice with the ricochet guns

hardy cipher
#

fancy lad

nimble heart
#

havent played 2.0 yet but I see they added tweaks for SMT so maybe my 7900X will actually be faster

#

the 7900X/7900XTX combo is pretty slick ngl. Complete top-end PC for $2500

#

to completely max it out with a 4090 and the 13900k would be like over a grand more I think

heady vale
#

AMD software rollout is too slow for people to jump ship, even if NV costs more

nimble heart
#

I dont even think most of the nvidia software works on linux

#

rocm still has growing pains compared to cuda but that's a different thing

#

oh speaking of

heady vale
#

cuda has a decade or more of dev.. so its the easier choice now days

#1 most downloaded anime model and its absolutely fried lol

hardy cipher
#

well you need to turn down the heat, bud

nimble heart
#

bru

#

im surprised the amount of people that put like 50k steps into training without even realizing they're using super fucked up settings

hardy cipher
#

I do believe a lot of them have no idea what they're actually doing

nimble heart
#

like how do you not see that on your validation images when you're half way through...

heady vale
#

tried with a super low cfg? sometime that can help

crisp owl
#

still has the vae issue in the image regardless cfg

nimble heart
#

yea that's not mild issues from a cranked CFG that's straight up baked and i'm only on cfg 8

crisp owl
nimble heart
#

#1 most downloaded anime model on Civit lmao

upbeat isle
#

hi

heady vale
#

yeah the rainbow effect

hardy cipher
#

without tweaking some things cfg 8 with sdxl usually seems too high

upbeat isle
#

whatsgoing on

hardy cipher
#

not that it should be too high

nimble heart
#

cfg8 is literally my default

#

it works fine

nimble heart
hardy cipher
#

well I use way higher than 8. but I do things

nimble heart
#

the first two look just fine

hardy cipher
#

but yeah, either way the artifacts aren't okay

nimble heart
#

throw it out and start over I guess

crisp owl
#

Yeah this is why I default to using a manually loaded vae

vale eagle
crisp owl
heady vale
#

yeah no matter the model I always use the 0.9 vae loaded manually

vale eagle
#

training with exceptional images also improve in general which does not included in training images. I am testing with the quality training on sdxl.

indigo vine
nimble heart
heady vale
#

yeah definitly wont help if its trained

crisp owl
#

I always do a zoom check to determine if I keep a downloaded model

nimble heart
#

poor Counterfeit lol. throw out the whole checkpoint and start over

#

i dont think im keeping any of the anime models tbh. i decided to try the top ones to see how they're coming and it's like OK at best or kentucky fried at the worst.

#

seems like XL tuning in general is still kinda early days

heady vale
#

I prefer nightvision, dynavision

#

then add loras to suit

crisp owl
#

my tops I end up using are realvis, copaxvivid (no longer available), zavychroma, nightvision, dynavision

nimble heart
#

in 1.5 I just had 4 different overtuned models for different levels of realism and changed depending on what I was prompting.

xl however it seems to be much better at one model does all so the multiple overtune approach isnt really worth it so far...

crisp owl
#

1.5 I ended up with my own merged model I just stuck with 100% of the time.
I don't think SDXL is at that point yet, still so early

nimble heart
#

realvis is super fucked up isnt it?

#

like is you prompt a dog it gets hella artifacts

crisp owl
vale eagle
#

stuck to own merge model at 1.5

crisp owl
#

this one? I haven't experienced that

ionic dragon
heady vale
#

Havent tried realvis yet. I think its not good with artistic gens right, just realism?

nimble heart
#

yea its overfitted for dslr style photos

#

same as the 1.5 version

crisp owl
#

Yeah it's best with realism for sure. But I pair it with more artsy ones in my flow to get stuff like my painted dancers I'm posting.
Realvis base with copaxvivid precon/refiner

nimble heart
#

realistic vision 2 was my "most real" overtune in my collection of 4 and it did pretty good

heady vale
#

I merged the 1.5 version, as you mentioned

crisp owl
nimble heart
#

went comics -> ghostmix -> dreamshaper -> realvis
depending how real

heady vale
#

merging with sdxl isnt as easy as 1.5

nimble heart
#

we need the mythomax guy to do a super advanced uber-merger for XL lol

#

though maybe after people figure out wtf they're doing with the training

nimble heart
crisp owl
#

Same guy that made Realistic Vision for 1.5. Love his stuff

nimble heart
#

Sytan posted some realvis 2 images earlier when he was comparing to his lora and pictures of dogs and stuff were all super borked

#

but maybe that's just a skill issue

crisp owl
#

I've been mostly using realvis

nimble heart
#

one interesting quirk I found out with the sd 1.5 version of realvis is you could easily coerce it into doing like DnD races by doing things like analogue photograph, dragon, (midriff:0.7) and the small amount of 'human' anatomy would be enough to completely coerce it into making a humanoid creature.

#

without it looking like furrybait

nimble heart
heady vale
#

yeah even SAI were saying loras are the best option

nimble heart
#

95% of the XL stuff on civit is checkpoints though lol

#

no anime or realism loras afaik

heady vale
#

still early days for XL. give it some more time

#

One thing Im constantly annoyed about, which persisted from 2.1 is long necks. See it far too often and cant avoid it

hardy cipher
#

I don't really even pay that much attention to the full models anymore. have a couple in rotation at any given time, but loras are where the magic happens. and my image blender

nimble heart
#

what loras do you use?

soft zealot
nimble heart
hardy cipher
# nimble heart what loras do you use?

mostly mess with the various loras that are supposed to improve the image. not even sure which ones are ideal. and I have a couple loras based off the images I've made chad

#

long neck

nimble heart
#
> which loras do you use
> "all of them"
hardy cipher
#

well, I could look up the names. one moment

nimble heart
#

nah its fine lol if you're just downloading random shit I do that anyways already

#

sometimes while im eating dinner I just let SD create a spreadsheet of loras/models/prompts or whatnot

hardy cipher
#

I don't really analyze them all that much. I'll just load one and if it seems to work with what I'm doing I use it

nimble heart
#

I wish the major authors would try making Lora versions of their models, I feel like they'd do pretty good

hardy cipher
#

I do like certain loras for specific things. have a blueprints lora and a schematic lora

#

those are fun sometimes

nimble heart
#

like a RealVis Lora or something

hardy cipher
#

couldn't you just make one?

nimble heart
#

me?

hardy cipher
#

well anyone

nimble heart
#

like diff the weights from the existing realvis 2 or train one from scratch using a similar dataset?

hardy cipher
#

subtract the base sdxl weights from the realvis weights

nimble heart
#

does that work..?

#

I feel like that wouldn't work but maybe im wrong lmao

hardy cipher
#

I did it with dreambooth finetunes I did

high skiff
nimble heart
#

oh sytan what was that prompt you used on realvis that fried the corgi

hardy cipher
#

might not be the best approach, but it did work. that was 1.5 though

high skiff
nimble heart
#

idk my corgis look fine

hardy cipher
#

never been a huge fan of the real vision models. I guess because not a big fan of just making images of regular people

nimble heart
#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

hardy cipher
#

hey, let's sit around and render images that look like regular pictures. and let's do it all day every day

nimble heart
#

least on sd 1.5

hardy cipher
#

I like the anime models that can't stop themselves from adding nudity even when you put nudity into the negative prompt

high skiff
hardy cipher
#

are we making corgis now?

nimble heart
high skiff
#

Real vision breaks less when you hand hold it more. It needs more stuff to stop it from breaking, but my prompts are super simple

nimble heart
high skiff
#

Not sure then

nimble heart
#

oh did you see my anime comparison earlier?

hardy cipher
#

so just remove the base model weights and what's left is your lora

nimble heart
#

that'd produce a full size checkpoint though no?

hardy cipher
#

no

nimble heart
#

cause if you subtract a float from a float you get another float

#

so you have to trim away those below a delta

high skiff

A cinematic portrait photograph of a tiger in a dense and vibrant forest at sunset

Mine, real vision, realism Engine, real stock photo

hardy cipher
#

fair enough. like I said, I don't know the intricate details of the process. just know that it's possible and I've done it. albeit with someone else's program

high skiff
#

RealVision vooks almost all non human prompts for me. Perhaps it's my settings, but I am not changing them to accommodate one model not doing well

nimble heart
#

im wondering if its overfitted on certain specific words

#

like "vibrant"

#

let me reproduce

high skiff
#

It does it even without vibrant

hardy cipher
#

deliberate was always better in 1.5

nimble heart
#

okay mine look absolutely nothing like yours lmao

nimble heart
high skiff
nimble heart
#

its the normal amount of cooking for stacking cinematic prompts on realvis

#

yours is like rage montage fried

soft zealot
high skiff
#

I haven't swapped around, as I have tested 7 models, and real vision seems to be the only one that breaks like this

nimble heart
#

maybe your negative is a lot different than mine???

#

idk why else itd be so different lol

hardy cipher
nimble heart
#

mildly cruncy but still not SNES graphics

#

idk I think it just doesnt like you

I've read guides that said to keep prompts short, and I feel like the people that made those guides don't know how to make cool things

high skiff
#

It only does it with animals, but it's very consitently an issue with real vision, which is why I disqualified it from my meaningful comparisons

nimble heart
high skiff
#

Yes

nimble heart
#

why is it so saturated wtf

#

contrast 99

high skiff
#

No idea, it's the only one that does it, and it only does it with animals

nimble heart
#

same prompt in realvis...

high skiff
#

This is RealVisionXL 2.0

nimble heart
#

maybe it doesnt do it in squares???

#

yea I just downloaded that one like 20 minutes ago

high skiff
#

I am not sure in that case really

nimble heart
#

lemme try widescreen

nimble heart
hardy cipher
#

this is how I prompt now. tired of typing them out

nimble heart
#

pseudo mentioned something about how XL doesnt have attention on the first layer which means if you have a mostly empty prompt it gives attention to nothing

#

16:9 tigers same prompt

#

not anywhere near as blown out as your realvis...

#

whats your sha256sum?

damn why so early

It's 12:16 AM, and I have to be up in 7 hours for my flight

nimble heart
#

ah lit

#

my interview aint till 1 pm so im gonna stay up till 5 am as per usual

Ok. It appears as tho it might be actually a sampler issue

I am testing with others

so many variables, so little time 🙂

Looks like it was sampler, weird

soft zealot

which was the sampler and what you using now?

nimble heart
#

what sampler?

high skiff
#

Now I suppose I can give real vision a better fighting chance against my LoRA

nimble heart
#

ive never seen that

high skiff
#

I was using uhhhh

soft zealot
#

DDIM?

high skiff
#

No

nimble heart
#

no ddim is super plain

#

sytan's probably on like unipc or some shit

hardy cipher
#

have you messed with the polyexponential scheduler?

high skiff
#

Dpm 2m sde

nimble heart
#

oh sde

#

I was using non-sde for everything

high skiff
#

I found that one gave slighting better dynamic range

nimble heart
#

so just dpm 2m

#

and it worked fine

high skiff
#

But it looks like it nukes real vision

#

I am using DDIM now, my go to for everything

nimble heart
#

oh

#

all the 2m samplers need karras scheduling

#

they're built around it

#

they might also work with exponential I think

high skiff
#

I was using karras

nimble heart
#

hm

#

maybe sde just fried it slightly

supple knot
nimble heart
#

lemem test

nimble heart
#

yup there it is on SDE lol

high skiff
#

Very weird

#

Welp, looks like I can add real vision back in

nimble heart
#

yea just use the non-sde version

#

or good ole ddim

high skiff
#

Time to see if my realism LoRa has any competition or not :p

nimble heart
#

ddim took like 500 steps to converge when 2m only took like 60 once so im kinda putting ddim on the side when im not refining

heady vale
#

nightvision and an older gen mixing a cat with tiger

nimble heart
#

one image i was working on had a really deep false bottom that took ddim well over 100 steps to start to get out of, while dpm++ 2m got out of it in like 50

nimble heart
high skiff
#

Woah, DDIM seems to have closed the lead my LoRA had

nimble heart
#

looks like a cardboard cutout

Not fully, but the other models look better than before

#

ah yeah see it now

nimble heart
#

its a 1024 image make sure you zoom in when you test models

high skiff
#

All of my testing right now is non zoom dependent

#

Cause my LoRA isn't fully trained

nimble heart
#

i A|B without zoom first then zoom in to nitpick

high skiff
#

I still feel like images like this are were mine really shine in realism and lighting

Mine, real vision, realism Engine, real photo

nimble heart
#

1 and 2 100%

heady vale
#

thats something else to look out for in future. I never looked for it

nimble heart
#

are 3 and 4 the stock image models?

high skiff
#

They are as I listed

#

Mine, realistic vision, realism Engine, and real stock photo

nimble heart
#

you said two were stock image earlier but idk if that's real engine or not

#

looks like it?

#

unless realvision is but I dont recall

high skiff
#

Real stock is trained off stock photos

#

IDK about the other

#

*others

nimble heart

#

Various free sites, I wish not to give away allllll of my secrets :p

I am gathering several times as many as I have now for my next LoRA training within the next couple weeks

high skiff
hardy cipher
#

I do respect the effort though. definitely not knocking it in any way

#

man, if anything I'd try to get blip 2 to do the captioning

nimble heart
#

neat thing about loras is the hand caption kinda works out

hardy cipher
#

yeah

high skiff
#

Anyways, I really need to sleep now

nimble heart
#

im tempted to try and make some obscure character loras like that once ROCm matures a bit

high skiff
#

My next training is 500 images minimum if I can

#

This current LoRA is only 90

nimble heart
#

dang 500

high skiff
#

And my end goal is 2500

nimble heart
#

for a char I'd probably only do like 50 lol

high skiff
nimble heart
#

yea

#

so not just people also animals n stuff?

west breach
#

I just trained a lora on 6000 video stills from 80 music videos. Seems to have the effect of making the image look like a video still. lora on the left, base right

got some planet earth stills?

hardy cipher
#

we did you manually caption 6000 images?

west breach
high skiff
#

I'm manually captioning every single image

hardy cipher
#

I just couldn't do it, lol

nimble heart
#

Sytan maybe you could use CLIP then just doctor them all by hand?

#

to hit a higher count

hardy cipher
#

that's what I was thinking

high skiff
#

I'm trying to caption for ethnicity, lighting style, f value, subject, image format, location, time of day, and much more. And it also has to be in a meticulous order of importance too

nimble heart
#

damn OK

high skiff
hardy cipher
#

clip, blip, one of those. or use clipvision and create non textual captions

high skiff
#

I have tried it a few times for the 20 and 50 image trainings of my LoRA

#

I have done 20, 50, 90, and I wanna do 500, and 2500

nimble heart
#

wonder if you could use PIL to just pull the camera settings from the image metadata

high skiff
#

ANYWAYS ok, I really need to go guys, peaceeee

nimble heart
#

if you're using original source images they probably have ISO and Aperature right in the meta

#

@ me with any questions or comments you may have and I will respond when I wake up

west breach
nimble heart
#

i have that set up on my phone lol

west breach
#

but because the photographer used so many settings, I generalised them to 'fast shutter speed' instead of the actual number used

nimble heart

not reading but storing settings in the meta

doesnt python have match blocks now

#

or am i looney

west breach
#

you get a dataframe like this

#

I haven't used the match syntax yet

nimble heart
#

i havent either but looking at that elif return chain made me want to

west breach
#

only 3 checks 😄

nimble heart
#

looks like the way python is set up it wont actually be any smaller

west breach
#

if it was an exact match I would use a dictionary

rustic shadow
nimble heart
heady vale
#

did a couple more gens trying to get the same angle as the other image. much less noticeable on these ones

west breach
nimble heart
#

I'd 100% do that but I'm also the type of person to chain together higher order functions to entirely build large structures in-place so I'm probably not a voice of reason

#

python lambdas always scare me because they have the weirdest move semantics

west breach
#

df['a'] = df['f_number'].map(lambda x: ["Large", "Medium", "Small", "Very Small"][int(x>2.8)+int(x>5.6)+int(x>11)]+" Aperture")

nimble heart
#

no

#

dont add bools to make an index

#

thats gross

hardy cipher
#

but why?

nimble heart
#

why is it gross or why do it in the first place?

#

walk away from your computer for a minute then come back and glance at that snippet and see how long it takes you to understand wtf is going on

#

the match and lambda versions are infinitely more sane.

west breach
#

still better than trying to come up with formulas in excel 😄

nimble heart

you could also just not use excel

west breach

tell that to everyone else at my company

in fact why even use dataframes

put everything into a 50mb json

oh yeah, well I can see what that's doing

nimble heart
#

so compare 1 and 2 to 3

#

your eye naturally follows the first two's control flow while 3 is just schizo

nimble heart
#

so you can just dfr open fat_thing.db | do {...}

#

i have it set to my default instead of Bash for a while and its aight

#

I usually am making large python notebooks to analyse transactional data

nimble heart
#

bit kinky at points though

#

supposedly its faster than pandas but idk I mostly just use the ops to quickly edit json

#

cause editing json by hand in an IDE is pain. why are commas delimiters. why cant you have trailing commas. why is that a thing.

west breach
#

I usually just load the json, edit it like a python dict and then save it as json. don't even look at the raw file

#

but normally the data I'm using with pandas is csv

nimble heart
#

yea that's what I do with nu.

mut data = (open file.json)
data.name = "Tim" 
...
$data | save file.json
west breach
#

but yes, been caught out a few times by trailing commas when editing by hand

nimble heart
#

pretty print ✨

west breach
#

would be nice to use something other than windows cmd

#

my work even blocks powershell

nimble heart
#

damn

#

on your home PC you can set up "Windows Terminal" on win10+ with whatever custom shells you want

#

its pretty good actually

#

I run my TUI music player in it and all the mouse gestures and everything work properly as well.

#

lmao what

#

who's shad

#

and why do you have beef with him

heady vale
#

normal twitter things

nimble heart
#

i mean its cringe I guess but ¯_(ツ)_/¯

#

if he thinks he's a god then let him sit on his false throne

fierce hollow
#

meh there's a lot of people around who think they've become artiste because they can prompt 'hot girl', but then fail to fix fingers in photoshop

nimble heart
#

why spend 5 minutes fixing in photoshop what you can spend an hour inpainting

west breach
#

I'd rather just generate 10, 20 images and pick the one without the screwy hand

nimble heart
#

idk i think its fun inpainting to try and make a "full ai" image

nimble heart
#

XL you can but on 1.5 I definitely spent a while inpainting

shy kelp
#

let's put her hands in her pockets PEPW

nimble heart
#

at least for high res

supple knot
shy kelp
#

no hands!

nimble heart
#

XL I've gotten some decent 3840x2160 stuff without any inpainting by limiting the composition to side profiles which avoids hands and chameleon eyes

west breach
nimble heart
#

sucked but in the end I got a fully AI image of a character that's hard for SD to make

heady vale
#

even with a good image you can usually improve it some more with inpainting

nimble heart
hardy cipher
#

meh. I used to inpaint more

nimble heart
#

my 1.5 wallpapers stuck around for months because they took so much inpainting and upscaling

#

look how much shit I had to inpaint lol

heady vale
#

at that point I would have just done more gens

nimble heart
west breach
#

I used to spend so much time generating nice looking portraits and inpainting for hours, now I don't really care about people portraits

nimble heart
#

SD has 0 concept of what "midna" is so I was using Lykon's lora which is okay-ish

#

reference

heady vale
#

IPA and image blending is good for stuff like that

nimble heart
#

even then I took lots of liberties to make it easier

#

idk what IPA is but controlnet didnt help much

heady vale
#

IP Adapter

nimble heart
#

I used controlnet to latent upscale while keeping the proportions on-model but other than that it wasnt helpful

#

yea idk if that was a thing when I made that wallpaper

#

I've still never used it tbh

heady vale
#

its like an advanced img2img

nimble heart
#

I found by running game screenshots or official art through img2img w/ controlnet it'd either be too close and obviously sourced or totally fucked up

#

so I just yolo'd and went pure t2i + upscale and inpaint

#

maybe once ROCm improves a bit more I'll make a proper Midna XL lora

nimble heart
# supple knot

also that looks like Anthony from linus tech tips lmao

#

ipadapter is image prompt adapter

#

basically reduces images to 224x224, then clip vision does it's clip thing and returns tokens that can then be used in conditioning instead of text prompt tokens. well that's clip vision I guess. but from there the tokens can be sent through ipadapter then embeds which then embeds itself into the model data. interprets th clipvision input prompt and creates a decoupled cross attention layer to insert the image data into the model

#

won't pretend to understand every intricacy of the process. but it's far more interesting and has far more potential than I think a lot of people realize

nimble heart
#

so clipvision but less underwhelming?

hardy cipher
#

yeah, more focused

#

and clipvision is a lot more useful, potentially, than most people realize

supple knot
nimble heart
#

ah yes

#

the LTT chainsaw

hardy cipher
#

I don't like that face at all

nimble heart
#

looks like one of those youtubers that gets caught trying to solicit nudes from underage fans

hardy cipher
#

probably has

supple knot
#

how about that hand on the table

hardy cipher
#

beefsteak hand

nimble heart
#

that's why he DMs underage girls; the adult ones get weirded out when he whips that thing out.

#

definitely 100% his hand and not his terrible personality

supple knot
#

that what the chainsaws for ,that extra finger

nimble heart
#

Chainsaw Man 2023 remake

#

there's enough Makima loras you probably could tbh

hardy cipher
#

it always surprises me when I find out that youtuber influencer type folk turn out to be huge narcissist dirtbags. who would've ever guessed?

nimble heart
#

im surprised how much of it was concentrated in the Minecraft youtubers specifically

#

like half a dozen of the top names turned out to be either pedos or assaulters or otherwise terrible

#

like that 2010-2016 minecraft youtube era

hardy cipher
#

I think it's probably more prevalent than we know. youtube has a lot of unsettling stuff going on

supple knot
#

got that extra finger off

nimble heart
hardy cipher
#

not sure if it's still a thing, but so many channels were women would livestream themselves doing regular stuff like doing their dishes, but with upskirt shots. and it's like they were forced to do it. or some of them. saw something about it years ago. one woman had like 6 or 8 channels

#

and her kids in the videos

#

ugh

#

or those videos that would somehow pop up into the streams for little kids, but be super messed up cartoons

nimble heart
#

oh yea like the weird spiderman elsa tub shitting things in YouTube kids for a while

hardy cipher
#

it really creeps me out

#

because it doesn't seem like it's just a stupid troll doing it

nimble heart
#

it sounds kinda unreal saying it outloud in a sentence like that lol

hardy cipher
#

we live in a post-rational society

nimble heart
hardy cipher
#

it sounds insane to me and I know it happened

nimble heart
#

I remember some video documenting all of this went viral calling YouTube out and I looked up the channels myself and it was super sketch. Like not even that old, and video #1 -> present are all like almost the same. least organic channels imaginable with 4M+ views per vid

hardy cipher
#

yes. made me think youtube had to know

nimble heart
#

"elsagate" I guess it was called

west breach
#

wasn't there a ted talk a while ago that warned about this happening with the way the algorithm works?

hardy cipher
#

that's it

nimble heart
#

still some weird shit on there but it's not algo boosted to heaven anymore

hardy cipher
#

don't think I saw the ted talk

nimble heart
#

dont watch ted talks

#

TedX is a scam

hardy cipher
#

I watched a bunch several years ago

#

well like 10

#

tedx you just pay for right?

#

lol

#

here's some money, let me talk

#

I watched them when they were on netflix. some of them were pretty informative/helpful

yea young me didnt realize this. I was wanting to watch some more after a teacher used one in school and the first thing I landed on was a dude fucking talking about how his jerk-off fantasies were "becoming more and more violent" until he suddenly realized that beating women == bad and now he's a nofap dude I guess.
