ayy lmao, now this is more like it.

btw, your WF has blunders causing the plastic look in WAN, it does the same thing to chroma.
aside from the lightning LORA possibly slopping it up a bit, you shouldn't use these terms:
>photorealistic (implying it only looks like a photo, but isn't one)
>beautiful woman (biases towards human eval slopping)

>>106228708
Okay, you are a retard. Lightx2v is a LoRA and ComfyUI proved its shit because it forces you to hand change multiple values. High/Low Wan2.2 is absurdly painful in Comfy especially with LoRAs.

You're really just a nocoder or worse, Comfy himself. If you are ComfyAnon, you are going to be unemployed soon because you don't even understand why I said
>High/Low Wan2.2 is absurdly painful in Comfy especially with LoRAs.
And further, don't understand how to fix it.

no need to reply, you're the same type of fag that would defend Blender before it fixed its UI and admitted they were retarded

Better RAM management when?

>>106228743
>because it forces you to hand change multiple values
It doesn't need anymore more than a one time setup of the usual low step 1 cfg changes for most speed loras, what values?

been afk

>>106228732
here's qwen for comparison. this model has the stupidest censorship, qwenches refuse to spread their legs. it'll let you generate a woman in a bikini no problem. just no spread legs or large breasts, Xi forbid.

QWEN CHALLENGE:
generate a woman with large breasts spreading her legs.

>>106228755
idk but i am going to fucking upgrade to 128gb i am going insane

>>106228755
User issue.

>>106228723
youll be in it next time anon im sure

>>106228692
Sure but as people already said, what else are you going to turn to for using the new models? Especially with video diffusion, there is only one game in town at the moment outside of building your own with HF Diffusers or whatever the research repo has. Every year, we've been getting a new SOTA in imagegen from SD1.5 to SDXL to FLUX to Qwen-Image. You can assume we stop right now but I am highly doubtful. It will take at least another several years and we haven't gotten into the server era like LLMs did with truly enormous models. We're just sorta breaching that now with Qwen Image.

>>106228723
if no one shared their gens then how did they get in the collage???

>>106228755
why can't it comfy yeet the text encoder, it takes like 2 seconds to load

Someone teach me how to train a qwen-image lora on diffusion-pipe and I will train the 2000s digital camera lora for it.
I have 2 gpus (48gb), btw.

>>106228755

Isn't this like a basic ComfyUI issue? Like if you ctrl-c and restart you have to close your tabs and whole browser if you want your workflow to be actually active. Or maybe this is just some Firefox thing.

Huh. So I guess it's either: Linux, Arch, KDE, Firefox, or me.

Blessed thread of frenship

>>106228732
Thanks for the terms to avoid

>>106228785
Will Qwen be uncensorable ? Gen looks awesome.

>>106228827
CLIP, yeah, understandable but T5 and other LLMs used as the TE takes way longer than that so understandable the prompt would get cached. That being said, loading in multiple models in memory to do this is naturally going to take a bunch of memory. If you don't mind the time wait, you can turn ComfyUI's workflow caching off to save memory.

>>106228974
>unironically using a desktop environment where every single drop of vram matters

>>106229065
I plug my monitors in the motherboard when I have to cooompute.

>>106228785
alright, can't spread legs but can do this... image coherency and anatomy also breaking down.

>>106229054
it's technically possible and there are already some halfass NSFW LORAs, but doing it right would require some significant and expensive finetuning. also, I think the TE model is probably censored too.

>>106228974
I still not entirely sure what you mean. What is ctrl-c? that's not a shortcut in comfy

It's all so tiresome.

does this fix all latent previews? saw it's a commit on the vhs node set, didn't know it was that pack that even enabled previews.

>>106229033
wrong. gardevoir thread.

>>106229156
No it doesn't.

>>106229119
Does it run on Wayland ? X is probably the leanest in vram but it's more or less deprecated it seems

>>106229168
>does this fix all latent previews? saw it's a commit on the vhs node set, didn't know it was that pack that even enabled previews.
yep, you can swap between workflows and it'll still keep the live previews.

>>106229181
https://codeberg.org/dwl/dwl
maybe, im still on X11. i will never switch to wayland, waiting for XLibre to get better
X11 is "deprecated" because of redhat trannies
XLibre is a fork of x11 by the biggest x11 contributor, redhat trannies were stalling bugfixes and critical CVEs so he decided to fork and then all the DEItrannies fell upon him and he declared his project is DEI free

Does anyone still use any 1.4/1.5 based checkpoints? I have shit tier hardware on a MacBook and I wonder if doing a base image with 1.5 cause it’s fast enough, then taking good gens and up scaling them with a slower model somehow. Stupid idea?

>>106229200
sounds like linux is for trannies

>>106229200
The trannies were all over the Hyprland guy as well as I recall, it's all so tiresome

>>106229200
I switched to Wayland years ago because it brought me from the greeter to the desktop quicker than X. I haven't looked back.

>>106229239
There's nothing for them to do on Windows and OSX, those are already peak faggotry, so now they are coming for Linux

>sounds like linux is for trannies

was i memed into thinking chroma was made by some furry, i don't think this is it

>>106229258
>>106228974
This is literally me.

>>106228732
Always knew chroma was shiet

In my experience of genning thousands of images with Chroma by now with many different versions across many different styles, especially focusing on realism, it does seem like Chroma v48 is best all-round with optional v48-detailed if you want to switch it up a little with the same prompt.

I also think v48-detailed can better for some specific prompts or styles so you should always try both initially but v48 should usually be the best one if you want any kind of a unique or realistic feel that Chroma was going for.

I know of the trick to increase the gen height and width by 128px to somewhat "fix" the newest 50/50a versions but at that point it should just be conceeded that something got fucked and that they didn't train it properly for the last 2 epochs.

So there either needs to be rigorous testing to show that 49 50 50a can be better basically every time with some specific gen parameters compare to 48, or those versions can't ever be "1.0" Chroma that they are now labeled as.

>>106229289
i bet it is

Anyone else not think chroma is actually that bad but just like to poke fun at it because the people here go bananas if you critique it?

>>106229356
yes, being trans isnt unique itt

>>106229326
I'm confused. They all look like slop.

So I incorporated this node into my Wan2.2 workflow, and it seems to work pretty good. I think it should be used as the default sampler now. No more needing to halve the steps or use two ksamplers.

https://github.com/stduhpf/ComfyUI-WanMoeKSampler/tree/master

>>106229326
Train loras, retards
How many times this has to be said?

>>106229326
Fucking terrible example. These all look like asian barbie dolls. None of them remotely portray realism.

Chroma HD is the best version, hands down.
https://huggingface.co/lodestones/Chroma1-HD/tree/main

>>106229397
you gotta know which version of the model is best to train the lora, retard

>>106229407
It's obviously the ones that were trained on 1024 images, braindead moron

there's got to be a way to objectively determine if a model is better outside 1 guy visually deciding its better because it ticks the right boxes for them personally

>>106229402
I was specifically going for 3D game render since realism is the default style people go for. I'm generating more realistic 1152x1152 and 1024x1024 tests of the default instashit model look people gen now.

>>106229402
The "Chroma-HD" is just the regular v50 version.

>>106229259
most things tech thesedays are made by furries.
the model isn't furry-centric, as you can see.

>>106229356
people here are mostly unhinged and just out to troll a reaction out of people.

>>106229388
so you just feed it the steps and it switches the model etc automatically? what does it do better when you already have a wf with the right steps etc.

>>106229407
there is no "best" to train. simply use the latest version. v50 don't use annealed because it's bad. i still use loras that were trained on a much earlier version and they work fine.

>>106229415
if the training was a fuckup which made the model more slopped, then no, braindead moron

>>106229435
Yes, but just saying v50 may confuse people because annealed & flash-heun are also part of v50.

>>106229437
>there is no "best" to train. simply use the latest version
If the models are noticably different and the latest one is worse, then you don't "simply use the latest version". This is exactly how loras are trained for anyone that cares about quality, you specifically train until you DONT want to pick the latest checkpoint because it's worse.

>>106229437
> i still use loras that were trained on a much earlier version and they work fine.
yeah, my lora I trained on v40 still works pretty much perfect. im debating if I should even retrain it.

>>106229442
It's clearly not the case as all loras I trained on v50 turned out fine
Try it yourself before spewing shitty assumptions

>>106229326
Your ideal aesthetic seems to be those RenPy games with stock 3d models from 10 years ago.

As an XL chad I find all this arguing humorous as I am above it all

>>106229463
>turned out fine
they would have ""turned out fine"" if you trained them on v30 or v45 just as well, because chroma was already good for months, worthless statement

>>106229437
>so you just feed it the steps and it switches the model etc automatically
yep, they use a formula to determine when it should switch to the low noise model.

>what does it do better when you already have a wf with the right steps etc.
the right steps? but how do you know what the right steps are? it's not always half the steps for each model. thats just what everyone does because its simple. perhaps its half, perhaps its a few steps more or less.

>>106229466
That is specifically what I was going for this time to take a break from realism. And I never said it was ideal.

>>106229477
badass

>>106229481
I don't think I would have the level of fine details I got hadn't I trained on a base that saw lots of 1024p images
Again, just try it yourself

>>106229478
You mean your VRAM is below it all, lmao.

>>106229505
>I don't think I would have
well as long as you think so its all good then, no need to actually compare

>>106229481
>>106229462

you should still retrain the lora so it can take advantage of the new concepts the model learned in later epochs. It only takes a few hours.

>>106229326

This lines up with all of my tests as well. Huge regression with v50. It *really* wants any realism prompts to look like flux, which just makes the whole endeavor feel pointless. The crunchier/noisier aesthetic of the pre-50 epochs needed refinement, but this ain't it chief.

You can still coax out non-plastic skin with the right prompt, but it led to the side effect of making all illustration gens looks like they've been covered in vaseline. Half of the model's use case (booru, furry) getting a straight downgrade in v50 feels bad. Then there's the 1024 weirdness on top of that.

>>106229495
Hmm, you might be right. Since you are a fellow aficionado of proto-slop, I'm going to download v48 for some testing.

>>106229421
nah its almost entirely based on what makes anons peepee stiff

>>106229518
I trained several loras on past versions before
What I can tell you that I did not have any noticeable downgrade from training on v50, despite claims that it is "slopped" (which is unrelated to catastrophic forgetting, since the model can do unslopped images if you increase the resolution, lodestone just overfit the base 1024p res on the 1024p "post-training" data)
And I can tell you that v50 does handle smaller details better, I notice less mangled backgrounds, objects and fingers

>>106229421
after hundreds of gens with a model with different prompts you know

Remember to delete Chroma from OP if possible
Remember to use regex to filter Chroma

>>106229596
>if possible
Your resolve waivers

desu, lodes should've never released the model in epochs. he has created a group of individuals that autistically believe lower epochs are better because their 1girl had more sweat in the image than another lmao

>>106229356
No, this is an objective downgrade in this particular style. I know this physiognomy.
t.>>106229466

>>106229541
Man, the last epochs were supposed to be the icing on the cake. Instead he fucked it up with his retarded experiments. No redos! Let's just move on and pretend like it's fine. It's all so tiresome.

>>106229596
That model is actually the entire point of the thread, it's the only base image model where you can have unslopped outputs and train loras in a scenario the model learns really well
The others are either too big to be trained local or have slopped outptus
And image gen has always been the soul of these threads, not spamming garbage uninteresting videos where nothing really happens

>>106229559

Needing to gen at 27373x27373 is stupid though. I want to churn out low res and pick from there. V48 is still best for that.

>>106229421
No, this is an objective downgrade in this particular style. I know this physiognomy.
t. >>106229466

>>106229634
whered you get this img of me

>>106229646
The loras I trained all work well at 1024p in v50. Again, cease the baseless theories and just try it yourself.

>but you see, v48 shows the girl with more pronounced nipples
>nyooo but in my 1girl gen, v49.0512 adds freckles to her buttcheeks
>ahh, but you see, v45 is the real king since it has peach fuzz that i havent seen in other versions
>in my personal tests, the last actual good version was v30 since it made my very specific animu girl look really cool
>i dunno guys v50 seems fine
>you're all retarded and v50 slopped the details like the mole on my girls ass crack

Am I supposed to retrain my Flux LoRAs on top of Krea?

>>106229456
eh fair. i realized a second after i sent that post that it was retarded what i said.

>>106229630

The model still has a lot of promise, but it's disappointing for it to reach v50 with a wet fart of "oops no more money". The 1024 training clearly fucked something.

>>106229631
>The others are either too big to be trained local or have slopped outptus
A year ago people said Flux was too big to tune (regardless of its distilled nature).

What kind of dataset do you think the Krea guys used?

I might do a Krea-like lora for Chroma, for fun, but I refuse to train on syntheticslop

>>106229663
This but unironically.

>>106227857
>the woman in that pic might look fake and plastic, but real women look that way. you have to admit chroma can't render fingers/toes/anatomy that clean

If slop my output, it sure can slopping the output is cheating.

>>106228732
>>106228785

>Chroma can't do X

Yeah right, surely it's not just you being retarded with your prompting. Now, let me know when Qwen can pic rel retard kun

>>106229658

I've been experimenting without loras since v50 released, trying and failing to make it look better. Those loras would work on any epoch anyway, and few would apply to me since I don't really prompt for realistic images.

>>106228897
good concept

man
whole afternoon tryna fix this hand on forge with inpainting and Adetailer to no avail.
What can i do here? Tried even upscale to fix it but it didnt work.
Is there some magical tecnique i could learn to fix this?

Can't he just say "I fucked up" and get his groomercord paypigs (i'm assuming this is his source of funds) to finance the final stretch?

>>106229684
someone extracted the krea lora for chroma, but it wasn't terribly good. as to what dataset? yeah no idea. there's also a rank 128 lora but here's 64: https://huggingface.co/silveroxides/Chroma-LoRA-Experiments/blob/main/chroma-krea-r64-fp32.safetensors

maybe someone can get usage out of it, for me it just makes shit look ass.

>>106229680
People never said it's too big to train Loras (for example). I think around the second week it was out, people managed to train it on 24gb vram.
People said, and still say, it's to big for a full rank fine-tune. Lodestone spent $150k in his training run, and it stills feels kinda undertrained.

If we actually get a full fine-tune on Chroma, Qwen-Image or Wan, consider it a miracle.

>>106229728
>on forge
there's your problem.

>>106229728
Nice gen. Have you tried manually doing openpose for the hand? Or maybe use a 3D depth map for the hand pose you want and use that as controlnet

>>106229728
Use a better model, better prompts and settings, and you will never need a """detailer""" ever again.

>>106229663
is this ai?

>>106229731

Probably. Furries will readily bankrupt themselves to chase the gooning high.

Qwen-image does OK titties right out of the box if you specify what you want the nipples and areolas to look like. It usually won't gen a pussy though.

>>106229720
>trying and failing to make it look better
Sounds like data and skill issues
People greatly underestimate the data part, they get shitty lowres images, use shitty captions, don't pay attention to the training config/settings, and completely forget about the garbage in garbage out rule

>>106229731
>>106229766
This is what I don't undestand. He hasn't said a thing about the obvious failure, despite many people pointing it out in the groomercord. Instead he insists the model is done and has moved on to distilling it or some shit.

>>106229753
What happens when i get a gen i really liked but has some anatomic defects anon
>>106229745
Frankly speaking i am really new at this.
I will look for some inpaint guides to know if there is something i missed.
I've heard of something about control tiles so i might look into that tho.
Also into those terms you mentioned.

Is there a purpose in captioning a style lora? I even combined multiple artists and it came out fine, came out really neat actually. I just took a bunch of untagged high quality images and threw them in.
This also foregoes the need for the user to prompt a custom tag.

>>106229388
so what's the workflow then

>>106229815
its in their github
https://github.com/stduhpf/ComfyUI-WanMoeKSampler/tree/master/workflows

>>106229833
wow I didn't know I was supposed to READ

>>106229781

I *want* v50 to work for me. I've been following the training since March and loved all the progress the model had made. There's no way around the fact that the 1024 training changed the outputs significantly. V40-v48 are all more similar to one another than v50 is to v48. It's the main model I use, so it struggling with things it didn't use to are immediately apparent to me.

>>106229803
it can help with strengthening certain unique aspects of that style that you want to stand out.

>>106229326
Next test, usual instashit model look.

Aside from "incredibly bright sunlight shines on the woman's face and body" there were no prompts for any style or anything beyond basic tags that relate to the physical features of the woman.

>>106229738
yeah. should have used Krita-ai-diffusion instead.

Send your training settings
Are you using diffusion-pipe? At what res?
Are all the images in your dataset 1024 or above? What are you trying to train on? Is it a style or a subject? How many images?

If it's a style, it's super easy, Chroma generally fully learns it by epoch 10
If it's a subject, it takes a longer while

>>106229085
"knees apart" seems to do it for this one.
I think part of the censorship is in the TE. If you add a generic jailbreak to your prompt, sometimes that can push it over the NSFW edge. but it's not always necessary, as you can get tits, nipples, etc without it. no pussy though, qwen pussy is hideous and deformed.

All I can say is none of my gens look as bad as your v50 gens. Some of them even look anime while v48 gens are not? That makes no sense. I've never not once gotten an anime/drawing from v50.

Can I train a complex couples handjob concept in chroma, even though all the source material will be cartoons? Would the LorA force Chroma to make cartoons or could it understand the concept and produce realistic images with it? Or would I need to train it on real pics? There's like no real pics of what I'm after hence the need for cartoons as training data. (Man doing a bridge pose over a woman's lap as she jerks off his pencil dick)

Im only interested in couples interacting, no interest in generating solo material.

prob a skill issue. i never have issues getting the exact art style i want. and the random crazy niche ones it doesn't understand can be trained with a lora.

>>106229959
You would have to caption it very carefully otherwise the model would generalize that what you would want is for it to learn the cartoon style, not the act

But my suggestion is running some of the images on img2img, kontext, controlnet etc to force it in other styles (photorealistic, CGI, painting etc) so the model understands you don't want it to learn about the cartoon style, but the content

Despite testing a lot of prompts and trying the usual "amateur photo of" over the course of these months with many Chroma versions even in the past, I always had the problem where Chroma randomly goes for anime every once in a while.
I assume it's because of some other prompts that I'm using to describe basic physical features of the woman that are heavily tied to the anime style inside the model.

What prompt do you use for realistic gens?

>>106229999
Quads so I have to trust (you)

>>106229975

I have. I'm guessing the higher res is mostly helpful for realism, since illustrations all look blurry in v50.

>>106229940

I'm not opposed to that, but if a prompt looks better in v48, my logic is why bother?

it's not necessary, it just can trick LLMs into behaving differently so it's worth trying.

testing shit in qwen is very slow ofc. after a bit more testing, IMO, the jailbreak approach has negligible impact on some prompts, but seems to reduce issues with others.Look at this example:
>jailbreak: https://files.catbox.moe/8nebvs.png https://files.catbox.moe/0afxkv.png
>non jailbreak: https://files.catbox.moe/numh7j.png https://files.catbox.moe/7fbgfm.png
the non-jailbreak version has a dismembered foot on the ground for some reason... but this pose causes anatomy to melt down regardless.

Anyway, I'm going to finally try Wan t2i, it really does look like the best overall if you don't need a shitload of text (qwen) or lots of style control (chroma). being unable to prompt breast size especially is ridiculous.

>qwen
>good at prompt understanding
>chroma
>good at detailed textures
we need something combined
and no, chroma as a refiner doesn't work because it kills prompt understanding from qwen

Where is the chroma rentry tho

>>106230026
nta but there is a higher realm than your tagslop

>>106230018
A typical prompt I use is:
<lora trigger word> Imagine a candid photograph capturing a beautiful woman.

<describe scene details here>

The image is lit with soft, diffused key lighting and subtle rim lighting. The image is a masterpiece with sharp focus, the best quality, soft light and high resolution.

My negative prompt:
bad quality, signature, logo, watermark, text, scanlines, lowres, worst quality, low quality, censored, muscular female, futanari

Are you using the chroma scheduler? (SigmoidOffsetScheduler)

What if Chroma was literally merged with Flux Dev weights for the last 2 epochs? And that's why it looks so slopped but also cleans up the anatomy? Someone should compute cosine similarity of chroma vs flux weights for v48, v49, and v50 and see if it suddenly spikes.

>>106230066
I'm also using flan-t5-xxl-Q8 gguf for the text encoder

>>106229967
Basic Chroma workflow.
The only difference is the prompt, for the images before, aside the mentioned "incredibly bright sunlight shines on the woman's face and body", I also just used around 10 basic tags like "lipstick, upper body, huge lips, wide hips, thin waist," etc.
Had the same problem when writing those tags in a more natural language before too.

>>106230023
>why bother?
1 - Loras will 100% have a stronger effect on whatever you are looking for
2 - Both v49 and v50 (yeah, I know it's a merge, whatever) have seen actual 1024p images (base res) and will handle fine details better than older epochs if you "show" the model any concept to train

The outputs of v50 being slopped doesn't mean the model forgot to achieve certain results, if you train a lora it will "remember" what it learned before with the addition of 1024p details

Nta, let's hope that's the case, but I doubt it, I think they shifted the training too quickly.

I guess we wait for someone will train a lora to test. Lora on v48 vs v48-d vs v50 vs 50-a

Anyone tried sage attention 3?
2++ already gives quite the speed gains, but no one is talking about 3.

downloaded more RAM for Wan 2.2

generation time before, with 24GB VRAM + 32GB system RAM:
480 seconds (1st gen)
200 seconds (following gens)

after upgrading to 128GB RAM:
230 seconds (1st gen)
120 seconds (following gens)

currently uses 85GB RAM, glad I went with 128GB instead of 64

Can I use a text encoder only version of flan for chroma?

>>106230225
when you run out of RAM, it uses your SSD's memory, which is a lot slower (and shortens its lifespan a bit as there is a limited number of write cycles)

so if rammaxxing is the new meta, wouldn't vulkan be better?

>>106230026
where's your gen then, anon? i'll wait.

>>106230076
i've started using gner-t5, though to be honest i don't know if it's "better" or just different enough that it's a perceived increase in quality.
also, try using the power_shift scheduler, it also works exceedingly well with chroma.

>>106230203
You obv won't have much issues but the point is, is v50 actually better? You basically need a direct comparison of two trained loras to see.

And even if v50 is slightly better for loras, it's very annoying to have two versions of a very similar model where you have to swap back to v48 if you just don't want to gen the specific thing the lora that you are using is for.

>>106230257

>>106230076
>flan-t5-xxl-Q8 gguf for the text encoder
In my very limited exp flan t5 is worse than regular t5 for realism in Chroma, also no reason to not use fp16 since the text encoder is not inside vram during the main part of the generation but does improve details if it's in fp16 a little.

>>106230378
no, it just does the switching automatically so you get the best results without having to guess the steps needed.

as I said, the default is to switch to low noise after 50%, but thats not always optimal or the best. this fixes that.

>>106230354
The only "figuring out" to be done is actually testing and training shit yourself.
If you depend on other's people opinions for something so trivial, you may reconsider how you live your life altogether

My point is that I used v50 as a base for training and noticed no visible downsides. I don't care if v49 is 1~5% better than it since I am satisfied with the results and I am not going to waste my time nitpicking details autistically

>>106230256
>and shortens its lifespan a bit as there is a limited number of write cycles
It only reads the part of the model that was thrown out of (v)ram, running basically any AI inference off an SSD does nothing to it since it should all be reads, which are free on SSDs.

If you care purely about realism then I don't agree. Chroma simply is better at prompt following, image quality, small details, coherency, even multiple subject coherence at v50. It broke 1024 but on other resolutions everything is clearly better. Though it's still possible some images come out better on v48 due to seed reasons, mostly it's the opposite.

In my testing aside from cracked Topaz (with the Chronos model) which is the best, especially for going beyond the usual 2x and to 60+fps, FILM VFI was best for physics except for color accuracy which it can shift a little. But it's good enough, given the hassle that Topaz is.

How do I use outpainting to create a full body portrait from a head profile shot?

>>106230484
I agree. I use Film VFI to upgrade to 32fps, and then Topaz Chronos to upgrade to 60fps.

>>106230495

>>106230497
Probably better to not go through two different interpolators and go straight to Chronos, it's designed for it and especially since VFI can fuck up the colors slightly. Made some of my videos slightly yellowish.

You can use Nvidia's ICAT to compare videos well.

>>106230454
>you're literally guessing when to switch to the low noise without that sampler. comfy doesnt do it for you. thats not comfy's fault or kijai's.

I'm not guessing anything, I'm just using the "official" workflows and implementation that comfy and kijai shared and they are clearly wrong because 1. they don't follow the movement / prompt correctly and 2. it changes the character face, men or women, it gives them the same face

Obviously their implementation is wrong since with this custom node it works flawlessly with the same lora, just how many threads have we been bashing and blaming lightx2v for its slowness and same faces when its was a native sampler error all along

The slop in v50 bleeds out to other resolutions too.
Bottom line, the version is basically poisoned, all further work on it is fighting against the grain of shit it was done to it after v48. If there is some bigger NSFW tune that becomes the "1.1", it might be OK, but otherwise it's very unfortunate.

>>106230526
>I'm not guessing anything,
yes..because you dont know when to actually switch.

>I'm just using the "official" workflows and implementation that comfy and kijai shared
and those workflows are just guesses. what dont you understand about that? the default workflow start_at_step is 0, and the end_at_step is half the amount of steps used for the high noise. for the low noise, the start_at_step is the same as the end_at_step for the high, and the end_at_step is the total amount of steps.

the start_at_step/end_at_step are guesses that you, the user, can adjust. comfy/kijai used half because its simple to test.

>Obviously their implementation is wrong
it has nothing to do with the implementation. this node just calculates the start/end steps for you. that's it.

>>106230553 (me)
I do also want to add that it's not the end of the world either, you can make it work, it's still good, and unless you're looking at v48 of the same seed next to it, you wouldn't really have a problem anyway, but imo it's worse for realism overall and you are now definitely a little more limited in how you have to tard wrangle the prompt.

And it's also not like it fixed the hand gore either, in my experience it barely improved it, if at all, so you still have to post process if you want production ready images. So might as well just use v48 and some second-pass/add-details workflow then.

>>106230577

If you have at least 32gb ram, then yes, it will just be slow. Stick to low resolutions unless you're okay waiting an hour.

>>106230593

>>106230577
depends on how much RAM you have too. If it is 32gb, then yeah, you can run the native comfyui workflow and the lightx2v lora. It takes a bit over 10 minutes for me at 480p. Kijai's workflow OOM's for me kek

>>106230617
look up wan vace

Okay, so the minimum recommended for WAN is 128 GB of RAM and 24~32 GB of VRAM. If I want good quality gens without generating for five hours and cherry picking one, is that correct? Anything else is cope, right?

3090 24gb and 64 ram is the gold standard, 128gb is good for how cheap it can be but depends on your build and what you are doing. And anything above is if you either have a lot of money or earn from AI.

Not that huge jump in money but still not really worth it. x3 price for not even 2x perf. And even with fp8, fp8 scaled is just not as good as Q8 for quality so do you really want to spend x3+ more money to gen at 2x speed but in worse quality?

My experience has not been the same.

This has been consistent for me. Part of the reason why is because I already naturally prompted for higher res when prompting for portrait or landscape images. Another is the night time photos, which I think are also melted looking at 1024, and other occasional 1024 hiccups that have not been the case for me anymore. I would appreciate it if you shared example cases where v50 is slopped even at 1152 compared to v48. I just don't see it. Also for backgrounds, for the first time ever I've noticed that people actually look like people, even if not perfect. If anything, a complaint that I would have (and I'm sure everyone does) is that I feel that just 2 1024 epochs don't do it justice, and it needed more. But it did improve even after just 2 (and yes, I've heard that anon that says v50 is not a real 1024 epoch).

Is UNIPC the recommended for wan2.2? For both High and Low?
I'd like to test but most of the ones I'm testing give garbage, and not a subtle way, like the output looks like noise or destroyed.

>>106230083
v50, same prompt.
it works fine anon. now compare this to the ridiculous gens you were posting.

>>106230866
another one, v50

how can I set denoise to less than 1.0 on both high and low noise sampling in wan 2.2?

2.1 loras dont work with 2.2 wan, if they "work" its because the implementation its wrong ;)

>>106230900
retard.

im glad weve graduated from still images of women standing to short videos of women standing

It's worth noting that v48 was never getting this right across other prompts either. When prompting for 2, 3, especially 4 girls it would include an extra girl in the prompt. v50 does not have this issue, the count is now very consistent.

Which UI is best for just simple league pics? novelai being free is mostly kill now since you cant use spam emails so I may as well make this local

>>106230933
Start on forge or one of its forks then once your ready dive into comfy

>>106228897
Didn't something like this happen in Gantz?

>>106230942
yes, those statues killed everyone except the main character. it was insane

>>106230862
some people do euler instead of unipc but it's not any better or worse. Generation times might be better on one or the other depending on your workflow though

>>106230900
Retard take but I'm waiting for a fusionX for 2.2 to come out before going back to videogen because 2.2 t2v isn't goony enough yet so you're kinda half right

>>106230914
Soon we'll have short videos of women standing but also with background audio

>>106230866
>>106230847
As I said I used much more basic tags, that workflow is example workflow with prompt field basically reset. I guess Chroma just doesn't like tags and wants much more natural language.

The problem arrives not when genning something with a single simple sentence prompt. It's when you actually start adding more and more. Try having 20-25+ physical attributes on how the woman looks, with tags, you will get that anime pull every once in a while, with natural language depending on the specificity it's better but the images are less varied then and it can still have problems.

Can you post your catbox for >>106199357
And also for the most complex and large prompt if you have it, and I'll see if I can play around with it more.

>>106230917

The whole problem with v50 is that things that aren't 1girl big boobs look worse. Whatever 1024 data was used negatively affected other prompts.

solved it by switching to fp16

Got it, I guess I'll try unipc next.

Can you post this video on it's own?

Guys, what is the point of Chroma when its outputs look as bad as SDXL?

>>106229259
Ok but seriously this is stylish as fuck how did you manage that?
