ComfyUI XS · DARE TIES

The Dare Ties UNet Merge Administrator — paperwork included.

SDXL checkpoint weight merging

Weighted deltas, optional DARE / TIES and bezier profiles over 21 UNet blocks (9 IN + 3 MID + 9 OUT).

DARE / TIES = Magic. She throws the bad vectors away for a minor cost. Worth it, unless you're not fully grounded.

Reference Model = Go there. Like an embedding.
