ah well, maybe ill stay with what I have then... lol

#

Swarm never worked for me right. Tried it on multiple occasions.

#

I have a comfy install but I avoid it if at all possible. 😄

supple raptor
#

What sort of problems did you have with Swarm?

#

that's what i use for basically all of my gens now. i only load up Forge when i want to be able to gen from my phone since the Swarm mobile layout is unusable

keen hollow
#

I've had issues getting it to run newer releases. (SD3 and Flux both had issues)

#

But I have a somewhat custom environment.

supple raptor
#

oh... i bet you were still on the old StableSwarm version, not the current SwarmUI one. mcmonkey, the guy who mad StableSwarm, left stability and had to create a new fork so that he could continue maintaining it since the StableSwarm repo belongs to stability

keen hollow
#

I did try the SwarmUI version, one of the early ones after it first shifted.

@supple raptor do you know if swarm supports zluda

supple raptor
# modest fog <@467127086776188930> do you know if swarm supports zluda

it just uses comfy so it should. you'll want to do the custom install option and add your existing comfy install that has zluda already functioning though. also, i know zluda development is in a weird place for now since it was an AMD sponsored thing that they decided to stop. the dev is continuing work on the project but he had to start over from where he was before AMD sponsored him

#

but if you can get comfy working with zluda in a python venv (put the venv in the root of your comfy directory) then all you have to do in swarm is add a custom backend with the StartScript pointed at the main.py inside your comfy directory

nooooo... i want try use SwarmUI

modest fog
vital raptor
#

SwarmUI is good, that's what I use too

brittle rampart
vital raptor
#

yes

#

also, if you use that but don't want it on all the time, there's a 'Refine Image' button in the More menu that will use those settings just for the current image so you don't have to turn it on/off all the time

brittle rampart
#

this is?

vital raptor
#

no, the Refine Image one, not Upscale

#

I added the Refine Image option because the Upscale 2x button doesn't use the refiner settings

do what?

brittle rampart
vital raptor
#

oh, yeah I meant I added it to SwarmUI.. I contributed the code for it 😄

#

there is a setting under the User -> User Settings tab where you can change which buttons show though, so you don't have to click on the 'More' menu each time

#

those are the ones I have showing, the rest are still in the More menu

and where in SwarmUI for SD1.5 models can I see and set the CLIP_skip parameter?

vital raptor
#

it's under advanced sampling

#

'CLIP Stop'

vital raptor
#

I mean, if you want something done right sometimes you just have to do it yourself 😛

#

Now that swarmui has proper extension support, i'm going to make a couple extensions for features that won't go in the main release

@vital raptor @supple raptor SwarmUI has something similar to the Tagger extension in Forge?

it's using a mix of things

#

ZzZ, genshin, honkai, star rail, Wuthering Waves, and other gacha games cgs that have close enough style with each other that they wouldn't conflic to much

o it does look like ZZZ style

#

Nice

I recently started playing it and paid up to get burnice lol

SD3.5 is... inconsistent so far..

same prompt

#

extremely high resolution anime screenshot of a small female child with short white hair and purple eyes. She has cat ears and a tail and is wearing a frilly dress. Standing in a forest over a vast valley full of trees and flowers with mountains in the background and fluffy clouds in the sky. She is facing the viewer.
Not a great prompt either, but I was hoping for more

keen hollow
#

I guess I need to try it out

#

ugh... means I have to use comfy

vital raptor
#

I'm using swarm

keen hollow
#

I suppose I could try swarm again.

vital raptor
#

the model is very repetitive as well, normally don't see so many repeated patterns without going outside the normal resolution

#

7.8s for a large size model is nice though, just gotta figure out why it generally looks like garbage

#

most images are blurry or pixelated

keen hollow
#

eh maybe ill wait a while before setting up all this crap

vital raptor
#

i'm hoping i'm just doing something wrong, otherwise it's another flopped model

zinc flax
#

Back to sdxl we go lol

umbral depot
#

Back to 1.5 still

zinc flax
#

1.5 also looks good

umbral depot
#

All of my loras and ti and models and prompts are 1.5 so going to sdxl is a pain

#

And then 3.x models don't work on a1111 do even more reason to not go that route

zinc flax
#

literally me moving from pony to illust

#

had to delete old loras cuz i won't be using that again lol

I need a good workflow to create multiple characters and a good background in widescreen. Probably need to combine multiple generations and outpainting or something.

Would like a final fantasy battle scene

I feel like I've mastered just solo Tifas 😎

vital raptor

vital raptor
#

yeah, flux tends to follow the prompt better in my experience

#

it still seems to have odd quality issues sometimes, and it's pretty bad at anime in general unless you want a fairly generic style

glacial coral
vital raptor
#

plus it's slow, ~15s for a base gen with no upscale

glacial coral
vital raptor

but, i've only tried the base dev model, haven't tried any finetunes or merges yet

#

if you can get it cheap, it's probably worth it, my 3080TI does pretty good

#

really wasnt worth the cost to get a 4090 tbh.. the speed is nice, but so expensive agony

glacial coral
#

so 4090 maybe a issue price and the performance

vital raptor
#

yeah, without a system and powersupply that can handle a 4090 it wouldnt be worth it anyway

i spent around $6K on my system including my 65" 4K display

I'm gonna consider a 5090 😝

vital raptor
#

i'll be considering it, but it's likely not in my budget for a while

#

as much as I kind of regret the 4090 purchase, I'm also doing a lot of AI stuff and need another gpu anyway, 5090 might be it, might be a used 4060TI or something.. who knows

#

i'll be waiting until the 5090 is released at the very least

3090 works for sd3.5 large so it's gud.

I’m starting to figure out until then I may have to GPU rent

#

Quick question also what’s some good style words I can use when doing a prompt for anime?

keen hollow
#

I'll strongly consider a full new PC in 2025.

#

9800x3d, 5090, 64GB

rough oxide
#

also... the kind of style you're trying to achieve

#

like if you're using noobai you can just directly state artist names

rough oxide

#

pony is scourge of serious anime gens

#

lol

keen hollow
#

why?

rough oxide
#

the way they did their training & such

#

it completely forgot basic concepts

#

this/illustrious v0.1 is my recommendation

#

also

#

pony is soon going to do the thing where they scrub artist names

#

so just overall pony is just a lulz model rn

#

lot of loras made for illustrious already too

steady grail
#

but noobai is noob, dah!

rough oxide
#

iz noob friendly

#

dun need 2 paragraph long prompts

keen hollow
#

I gave illustrious a good try and found it yield a lot of meh results

steady grail
#

that's not because it's friendly, but just because it's too noob to manage more

glacial coral

#

the stuff it can do now far surpasses NAI but that's like pretty far away if that ever comes

#

I haven't seen much from noobai.

noobai though is an additional 12m finetune for 5 epochs and it smooths it out

Need to see Tifas to make a call. 😄

Looks like a really good pony model

no it's an illustrious model

#

well

glacial coral
#

I need to grab those glasses real quick💀

rough oxide
#

pony has its own prompting structure & stuff like that

#

noobai is a finetune off illustrious which by itself is an uber powerful base model

#

just needs more training is all

btw... heres a merge of the noobai vpred model that aims to fix some of the issues it had due to being trained on a much smaller dataset. seems good from the first 2 images i've made. if anyone needs it i can add the keys necessary to run it in forge/a1111 dev branch and re-upload to hf https://civitai.green/models/873533?modelVersionId=977843

This is a vPred model you need to use comfyui or any other gui compatible with vPred SDXL models!!! Merge of noobaiXLNAIXL_vPredTestVersion+IterCom...

then name that file the same as the model and place it in the same folder as the model.

lyric zealot
#

sus depending on version. surely my version will work

supple raptor
#

probably tbh. i'm pretty sure that worked basically from the start of forge until he abandoned the last bits of A1111 inference code and switched to obfuscated stolen ComfyUI code instead.

supple raptor

yesh, this one is an SDXL model and the yaml you linked is for SDXL. the 1.x yaml didn't have any reference to eps and those are the only models that i've loaded this way personally

#

so i'm just not completely sure that it works the same way on sdxl models

lyric zealot
#

i guess it didn't work with my version of forge

lyric zealot
#

fine, it's time to switch to swarmUI

supple raptor

but swarm ugly

lyric zealot

for face detailer, use <segment: in the prompt. it will give autofill with an explanation, you can either use clipseg to just type what you want detailered, or you can load a yolo model to make it just like adetailer

#

is there still stuff like xformer? smug

supple raptor
#

yep, i think by default it will just use sdp, but if you install xformers it will use that instead

#

good time to make sure you're updated to pytorch 2.4.1+cu124 and xformers 0.0.28.post1 as well since those were a decent speed increase for me

#

oh, xformers 0.0.28.post2 wheels just came out yesterday for pytorch 2.5.0 support. maybe i should see if i can break my venv again

steady grail
#

why not using 2.6.0.dev20241002+cu124?

green temple
supple raptor
steady grail
#

lol

#

i should install xformer now that i think about it

#

not installed when i reinstalled comfy

#

anyway that update busted stuff a lot

supple raptor
#

you'll have to try to build from source for pytorch 2.6

steady grail
#

much more faster now

#

i'll see

#

later

supple raptor
#

last time i tried building xformers from source i got skill issued and went back to a working pre-built whl

steady grail
#

lol

#

i do stuff for fun

lyric zealot
#

i totally know how to update my pytorch NeuroClueless

supple raptor
#

if you ever need a specific version of torch to go with xformers just add version after torch and it will get the right torchvision and torchaudio for it like pip3 install -U torch==2.5.0 torchvision torchaudio --index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/cu124

#

and if you need a different cuda version for your gpu you can just replace the cu124 on the end of that url with either cu121 or cu118

#

oh waow torch 2.5.0 brought my gen time down to ~50 seconds compared to ~60 seconds with torch 2.4.1

lyric zealot
#

I don't even know where is my virtualenv for swarmui

#

is it the newly installed comfy backend? MONKA

supple raptor
#

yeah it'll be in there

#

it just gives you the comfy portable .zip which includes it's own version of python. i don't rember how to update that since there isn't actually a python venv to activate i think

lyric zealot
#

let me find it real quick

#

how do you link your ESRGAN stuff

supple raptor
#

my setup for some of that stuff is a little funky since i use a standalone comfy (non-portable) install but i think you should be able to use the extra_model_paths.yaml inside the comfy backend to do the same as me

#

mine is like this

lyric zealot
#

Think i will just copy and paste that since i already linked the others

supple raptor
#

That also works since those models are small anyways

lyric zealot
#

do i have to activate the autocomplete thingy?

supple raptor
#

yeah, User > User Settings > AutoComplete. may also want to change your image format to PNG while you're in there.

#

here's my auto complete config

lyric zealot

are you using <segment:thing> or <segment:yolo-yolomodelfilename>?

the same as you

supple raptor

I use this to specify 0.4 denoising and 0.8 confidence
<segment:yolo-Anzhc_Face_seg_1024_v2_y8n.pt,0.4,0.8>

lyric zealot

same error thinkEgg

supple raptor

go to the server tab, then logs and pick ComfyUI in the dropdown. might be like ComfyUI-0 or something like that. that will show you the full console from comfy

if all else fails, the official SwarmUI server is helpful. i'll send you an invite since invite links can't be posted here

looks like nightly is too updated to work with xformers

#

no, it works

#

i was wrong

#

let's try it

#

if i didn't mess up all the requirements, now i should have xform...

#

error

supple raptor
#

sometimes the nightly wheels will work for xformers. just depends on whether the xformers wheel has been built for it or not. i'd suspect there aren't xformers wheels for nightly pytorch yet since they only came out for the latest stable pytorch yesterday

steady grail
#

yep

steady grail
#

i think my vram became too obsolete for the new xformers

rough oxide
#

always wondered but do you need to manually update the nightly build like every time it updates if you wanna keep it up to date? if so is there a way to do that without reinstall

supple raptor
rough oxide
#

geh need to do force reinstall to do that i think. well... can probly do it once a month or something rather than a regular thing xD

supple raptor
#

the real problem is if you want to use xformers, you also need to know which version of pytorch the latest xformers wheels are compatible with since there is often a significant amount of time between torch being updated and xformers catching up.

rough oxide
#

i've just been using python's own cross attention thing.

#

xformers very slightly affects quality of image iirc

supple raptor
#

xformers is more memory efficient than sdp and is also deterministic. if you want sdp to be deterministic you have to disable the memory efficient attention which makes the gap in memory efficiency even larger.

#

that being said if you aren't running xformers and want torch updated all the time, then you can just add one of the following to your startup script right after the venv gets activated
latest stable:
pip3 install -U torch torchvision torchaudio --index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/cu124
latest nightly:
pip3 install --pre -U torch torchvision torchaudio --index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/nightly/cu124
replace the cu124 with whichever cuda version you use if your card doesn't support cuda 12.4

hmmm. i just use the one system python & comfyui, no venv ;_;

spent a while on the image model voting thing, pretty sure i like 3.5l the most aesthetically right now, but it feels like some others might follow the prompt a bit better sometimes thinking

supple raptor
#

If you have everything just in system python anyways then no need to activate venv

rough oxide
#

aye, usually just have a couple things setup at a time that don't really conflict with eachother so haven't needed venv yet

supple raptor
#

I like venv because if something gets screwed up, I can just shift+del the venv and create a new one.

vital raptor
#

i just put everything in it's own VM 😄

#

i think pretty much everything i've tried except comfy comes in a venv or conda env anyway, not sure why comfy doesn't

supple raptor
#

Comfy expects that you know what you're doing enough to decide what sort of environment you want to use if you opt to not use the portable version which uses its own included python anyways (just like a1111's portable version)

vital raptor
#

maybe, but unfortunately the vast majority of users don't know what they're doing and just run into trouble because of the way it's done, and they don't even have install instructions available for if you did want a venv/conda setup. I imagine it probably causes more support issues than it's worth

#

doesn't really matter to me personally, I can figure it out just fine, but I'm not a typical user

pretty soon there'll just be a standalone program it looks like, will make it a lot easier to recommend to less technical friends who have good hardware

supple raptor
#

yeah just saw that too. wonder how that will effect SwarmUI's install process since that just uses the portable .zip version of comfy by default which they said will eventually be replaced by the standalone electron app

vital raptor
#

I'd imagine they'd still have some kind of headless API mode since so many things use that.. but you never know

#

unless the electron app is only replacing the 'portable' install, then swarm could just pull the normal version, complicates the install on swarms side a little, but shouldn't be too bad

supple raptor
#

yeah, the app will only be replacing portable. here's the blog post https://blog.comfy.org/comfyui-v1-release/

for the way i use my system, a standalone app would be less convenient. i like to have my ui in a browser tab because it allows me to more easily switch between other related things, such as looking through danbooru to get new prompt inspiration, or just looking up tags or checking civ/hf/github for new things

#

yeah, rendering rig with forge here and browser based access (just in my intranet of course)

supple raptor
#

i go back and forth between Swarm and Comfy mostly. if i know that i just want to connect noodles when i launch it, i'll just launch comfy standalone, but if i might want swarm features i launch that instead. Forge is only used when I'll be generating remotely on my phone

I think Forge has changed a lot of things in how it processes over time

supple raptor
# keen hollow Why "Hopefully"?

because trying to hide that he stole the code from Comfy without giving credit is one of the few explanations for why it would be obfuscated that isn't "because it's hiding something malicious"

keen hollow
#

Well crap.

supple raptor
#

yeah

keen hollow
#

That's my primary guy.

#

This makes me sad.

supple raptor
#

I've heard mostly good things about ReForge, which i'm pretty sure was forked prior to the obfuscation

keen hollow
#

😐

#

I was thinking ReForge was behind again.

#

Maybe the time has come to fully just switch to comfy.... ugh

#

eh nvm.... no one cares... 😛

bitter latch
#

turns off dtg

supple raptor
#

Invoke has become somewhat interesting. I played around with it a little bit. For in/outpainting it's quite nice. Documentation is seriously lacking though and from what I remember of their old documentation they used unique prompting syntax. Prompts also seem to maybe be limited to 75 tokens, though not entirely sure on that one.

bitter latch
green temple
keen hollow
#

building workflows for even basic features is such a royal pain, though. 😐

#

but even worse is trying to FIND an existing one that doesn't suck

#

the workflow repositories are all filled with garbage

supple raptor
#

i wouldn't really call it much of an overhaul. it's basically just an electron wrapper for the existing browser based version. it sounds like it might get a few unique features such as multiple tabs to accommodate having multiple workflows loaded, but you can already do that by simply opening another browser tab for comfy. the main benefit of it will be ease of installation.

keen hollow
#

I thought they were baking in the manager functions and such.

bitter latch
keen hollow
#

Plus some additional security/vetting procedures.

green temple
supple raptor
#

the manager functions amount to just having the Comfy Manager extension pre-installed if i understood correctly and i think the security/vetting is already in place in Comfy Manager.

keen hollow
#

What are you using mostly these days?

supple raptor
#

mostly Swarm. occasionally i'll load standalone comfy if i know i don't plan to use any of the swarm features for a while

green temple
keen hollow
bitter latch
supple raptor
# keen hollow which swarm features do you like?

the image history and model/lora/embeddings browsers are miles ahead of the ones in A1111/Forge, autocomplete for special prompt features is great (example: adetailer is done by simply adding <segment:yolo-Anzhc_Face_seg_1024_v2_y8n.pt,0.4,0.8> to the end of your prompt. it gives an gives suggestions for the feature as you start typing and then gives an explanation of how to use it within the tooltip like in the screenshots), inpainting is a much better experience than base comfy, same with ip-adapter and controlnets

rough oxide
#

oh right, swarmUI is my absolute favorite way to load loras

keen hollow
#

ok... you've convinced me to try it again

#

Does it still have the dotnet dependencies?

rough oxide
#

yes

#

dotnet 8

keen hollow
#

those were a little tricky for the sandbox.. will have to figure out how I did it before 😛

vital raptor
supple raptor
keen hollow
#

I made a mistake of downloading Loras and not organizing them well at all

#

Does Swarm have any sort of help for that?

bitter latch
keen hollow
#

I know that auto/forge had that Civit Browser thing. it was a little janky.

supple raptor
#

the only feature that swarm is really missing for me is a good mobile layout

supple raptor
bitter latch
supple raptor
#

it does have a model downloader tool built in though so you can download stuff from a Civitai or HF link (mostly useful if you're genning from a different machine than it's actually running on)

lol i just realized is anime the last dreamer community remaining? haven't checked channels & roles list in a while

bitter latch
supple raptor
#

yeah, i think it's been the only dreamer community for quite a while

bitter latch
#

thats what I wanted... kinda

supple raptor
#

the other ones each had like 5 people who would maybe post an image per day for the most part. some of them were completely dead for days or weeks at a time

rough oxide
#

makes sense. there is anime and there is non-anime. goodjob

supple raptor
#

there is anime and there is nothing else

rough oxide
#

i think i only ever used anime, the current SD one like sdxl when it was new

supple raptor
rough oxide
#

and the bot channels when they were testing new models

supple raptor
#

i posted a couple of images over the years in other channels, but even most of those were anime that just happened to cross-over into other categories

rough oxide
#

see? great realism

#

XD

#

(....i still probably inject anime into 90% of the realism prompts)

bitter latch
#

hmm ok... I guess princess peach is on the train/tram?

rough oxide
#

i often wonder, if an image almost always has to try and conform itself thru steps to match what the prompt is... then... how do you end up with results like that unless it identified "something" as princess peach

#

like there's sort of a main anime AI server, and there's lots of other servers for specific services like novelai & such

keen hollow
#

oh I see

#

are they any good?

#

Is speed (it/s) viewable in Swarm?

rough oxide
#

ye, the main anime server is a great place.

#

did swarm not show anything when you generate on the commandline?

keen hollow
#

show's me time when it's done...

#

ignore the speed, settings were off... but that's what I see.

#

nothing for current generation speed

rough oxide
#

ah yea that's usually wrong too iirc. guess maybe it doesn't then

#

since that'd be the place to output it normally

idk if it/s is visible somewhere else, but you can see it in Server tab > Logs tab > ComfyUI in the dropdown. this will show the full comfy console so if you have any errors that don't give a clear message in swarm, you can check there too

vital raptor
#

yeah, in the Server -> Logs -> ComfyUI-0 it shows the it/s

#

the swarmui console shows the total time

at the bottom of swarm by the tabs it shows estimated gen time, but it's using previous times and averages, its usually wrong

#

Workin' on acclimating to Swarm. I will say the setup went smoother this time. Seems to be working without much issue. 🙂

rough oxide
#

aye, should just be dotnet and git. i think it uses a venv for python right?

#

then everything else installs as it needs

keen hollow
#

I use some sandboxing which makes it a little weird, and I use a bunch of custom folders for model storage and such

#

but yeah it did ok

#

Now I need to figure out some quality-of-life stuff, like where to store my favorite negatives. 😛

rough oxide
#

hmmm. i only find sandboxing useful if the program is malicious/can be exploited/etc... safetensors & common sense is pretty good as far as SD goes in general

keen hollow
#

comfy with the plugin malware issue and forge with the obfuscated code begs to differ 😄

rough oxide
#

....guess i dodged a bullet not using comfyui manager til now (and still not yet...) xD

#

fair then. didn't know there were malware problems with plugins

#

any specific names to avoid?

keen hollow
#

there was one in particular but it's long since been eradicated 😛

#

it's a lot of self-updated stuff, git pulls i'm sure you aren't reviewing for updates and such... I dunno. I just feel better sandboxing it off.

rough oxide
#

that's good

#

i review all my updates ;D

#

swarmui auto updates tho

keen hollow
#

you do code review of every commit?

rough oxide
#

yup

#

there's not a lot of code to review

keen hollow
#

right on

rough oxide
#

i check every update and only pull when i see something relevant to what i need

#

but up to that point i've reviewed all the code

#

some of it goes over my head though, especially the mathematical stuff to do with samplers & what not

#

i figure if something happened there then there'd be a loud outcry though xD

keen hollow
#

eventually, yep

#

Is there a built-in "png info / metadata viewer" in this?

#

I have my program I can use, but nice to have a built-in also.

#

seems like you can just drag an image in.. interesting

rough oxide
#

u can on the comfyui workflow side

#

then send the workflow to the gen side

keen hollow
#

I gotta figure out this segment thing

#

so I should be able to add a segment token to a generation to hone-in on a particular part

#

but adding it to the prompt is going to modify the full result. hmm...

#

I guess you tag it on to the end and it'll be ok

#

yeah that does it 😄

#

gonna try their CLIP Seg thing over the adetailer yolo models for a while, see how it goes

#

wow you can re-render JUST the segment

#

that's pretty nice
