    @SG_161222 I'm sure you have much more training experience than me. But just a little observation from me training Flux LoRAs: after the first steps and epochs the anatomy seems to get bad, but with further training it's getting good again.

    how is the FLUX model training so much faster than SDXL version 5 was I mean its been only a few days and its apparently 70% done already meanwhile v5 even after the training had begun took forever is the dataset your using just smaller I assumed you would use the same dataset for FLUX as with XL or at least the same images the captions are probably different because FLUX is more conversational type language anyway regardless impressive stuff and I'm very excited for the FLUX model

    Hello SG_161222!

    So I was wondering, are there any specific 'Styles prompt' you would recommend over others to use with v5.0?
    I noticed with the latest update to Forge that they have this long drop down list to the side which feeds preset prompts before and after your own prompt to achieve a certain style, say natural or cinematic, polaroid etc. etc.
    If there's any style or prompt you would advise for best results with RealVisXL v5.0?


    Thank you : )

    Hi, I was just wondering what the main advantages of upgrading from V4 to V5 are? What is it better at and worse at? Do you think V5 is better across the board?

    Marcophono2Oct 16, 2024

    To be honest for me the impression is that 4.0 is better than 5.0. But I am only focused on photo-realistic generations. I tried (and compared) all 4.0 and 5.0 models with same prompt and same seed and that brought me to my result to go on with 4.0.

    Hi!

    I decided to almost completely rebuild the dataset specifically for training the Flux model. Some parts of the dataset from RVXL V5.0 are still present in my Flux dataset; I just decided to clean it up by removing images I don't like and supplementing it with higher-quality images. This process won't take very long, and the new dataset is about 70% ready.

    The first version of the model became unsuccessful due to issues with anatomy.

    Training on the new dataset will begin in the coming days.

    fp32 is model's full weight and fp16 is quantized ( compressed ) to reduce weight size ( hint the smaller file ) , if you have GPU with 12 GB VRAM or more , you can try to play with FP32 but fp16 is great and fast on NVIDIA Cards

    Your model is great, but I found a problem when reproducing your sample. The portraits copied with the same parameters are not as clear as your sample, such as eyelashes, eyes, hair, skin, etc. The scenes and animals have no problem and are the same as the sample. Do you know how to solve this problem?

    You would need to do a second pass/refiner to the face. Close ups are really good on this model but futher you go away the detail gets worse. You can run another ksampler on the face and add it back on.

    The RealFlux 1.0b Schnell model will be available on Hugging Face within a few hours and on CivitAI shortly after. This model currently has some limitations, information about which you can read on the model's main page on Hugging Face.

    The Dev version of the model with support for basic NSFW is currently in testing and will be released on Hugging Face and CivitAI after successful tests.

    @pigeon_ Hello! Currently, the Schnell model cannot generate NSFW content (the Dev version of the model can do this, but some minor adjustments through training are needed). It does not have a variety of styles, but in terms of realism, anatomy, text generation, and the amount of detail, it may be better than RealVisXL.

    I see the compact version is 21GBs and the transformers is 11.9 GB.

    @makaveli_313 Hello! No, these are absolutely identical models in terms of capabilities. The Compact version includes VAE, Clip-L, and T5XXL, and this model can be easily used in Forge and ComfyUI. The Transformer version (also known as Unet) is a part of the model that will not work on its own without using VAE, Clip-L, and T5XXL, which need to be loaded separately from the model. The Transformer version will help you save disk space, as you can have multiple Transformer (Unet) models and a single instance of VAE, Clip-L, and T5XXL.

    Sep 23, 2024

    @jbbjaau Hello! The issue with butt chins can still occur, but it is less frequent than in the base model. There are no problems with overly tanned skin. However, the quality of faces still needs to be improved in future versions of the model.

    @SG_161222 So in my initial testing I did notice the pictures all come out very airbrushed looking. the level of detail seems to be off as well. basically not real looking as RealVisxl5.0, currently anyways.


    Also, I can't seem to prompt two humans of two different races in a single picture. Example, a white person(male or female doesn't matter) with a black person, or indian person, it will make both human subjects the same race.

    menyan1381Nov 11, 2024

    lower precission uses less ram and space (fp8. fp16, fp32), higher precission matters when training. personally i prefer fp8 if available (can't see difference in result quality, but definitely faster processing). pick full model if you wish to train it further (i have no idea how its done, not in my scope yet)

    I would rather use your v5 non-Lightning model and add the Lightning LoRA myself instead of using your v5 Lightning model, for flexibility in my workflows.

It's similar to videogame color palettes, 16-bit is smaller but can perform faster and uses less memory but the output isn't precise while 32-bit has more variety and color combination but it's twice the size and uses more memory but you will get a better output.

    If you have low VRAM, get the fp16 and if you want the best the model can offer, fp32.

    Don't know why, but I sometimes just get random garbage results, like just blurred colors, or just completely black result, they do happen rarely, but they never happened in Juggernaut.

    I also find myself having a hard time controlling the lighting, the shadows sometimes seem very strong, and overexpose the image.

    Would someone give me some advices?

    EliteLensCraftMar 20, 2025

    Issue with trashy results:
    That happens mostly if you're stuffing your prompt with lots of tags - most of them doing nothing.

    Lighting:
    Stick to simple concepts and use negatives to tweak.

    If you got any examples... would be easier to offer specific help.

    gman_umschtApr 4, 2025

    Did you ever find out what the problem is? If the image looks like "plasma clouds" it might be the wrong setting for the Emphasis mode (try "no norm" instead of "original").

    Does anyone know what is the difference between the RealVisXL model and RealVisXL Lightning model? Does the Lightning version use the SDXL Lightning LoRA or is it somehow merged with the SDXL-Lightning model?

    nik8487Apr 1, 2025· 1 reaction

    Lightening model uses the sdxl lightening architecture, which makes it possible to generate images with only 1 step, which makes it very fast usually less than 1 second but a bit of quality loss.

    Has something changed with this model or SD A1111? It's impossible to recreate older photos that were made only a few months ago, giving far worse results and slight deformities consistently. I used to be able to recreate the sample photos as well just by putting them in via PNG info, but now it's never identical, giving a worse variation instead. What could have changed?

    gman_umschtApr 4, 2025

    Just fed some samples into my Forge on Windows and could very well recreate them (e.g. the mushroom forest, the parrot, the woman in the forest). Not pixel by pixel because right now I'm on my AMD PC, but so close that it doesn't matter. Can you post an example on your page of a failed recreation?

    the__RealistApr 11, 2025

    Do you have the same issue in Forge as well?

    i had in forge... i think the issue was that in the latest version it put it in the default 'all' tab and not the XL one, thus selecting Flux sliders which werent meant for sdxl

    gman_umschtApr 11, 2025

    @makaveli_313 No issues in Forge, I just drop the example image (e.g. the woman in the forest) into the positive prompt box, press the small blue arrow apply button and even if I had the "all" preset with 512x512 resolution etc. it applies the correct parameters to reolution, sampler etc. Right now I have no idea what could cause the problem. Only thing that comes to mind is "Disregard fields from pasted infotext" setting where you can define what NOT to apply from png info.

    Old thread, but had a suggestion. In A1111 settings there is a toggle for "Use old emphasis implementation. Can be useful to reproduce old seeds." If this is selected, it uses an older legacy version of applying weights in prompts, and that can definitely change the final output. The effect can be subtle or drastic depending on how many and what kind of weights you used. The default is to have this option unchecked because the old way was not parsing and applying weights correctly.

    Has anyone managed to make the light version work? Here on mine the images always come out with blown out colors and deformed faces. I tried to follow the user's tips, but it didn't work. Using dpmpp_2m + karras, it seems that everything gets worse!

    lower your cfg, blown out colors and deformed faces (sometimes followed by confetty or colorful sprinkles) are all signs of too high cfg. you may even need to get as low as 0.5 to make some model work (low steps model)

    bic99Jun 13, 2025

    @nafario @nafario How many steps? and how many CFG?

    nafarioJun 15, 2025· 1 reaction

    @bic99 generally cfg 1, steps 6-7, but depending on image genre cfg 1.5-1.8 max and steps 12-15

    menyan1381Jun 20, 2025· 1 reaction

    @bic99 also check for: LCM, eul_ancestral, dpm_2_ancestral, dpmpp_2s_ancestral, dpmpp_sde. try karras first, then ays_sdxl if available, exponential, beta, and sgm_uniform. (i've arranged the sampler from the softest, scheduler from the more aggresive)

    can't i use karras with the lightning model?

    menyan1381Jun 13, 2025· 2 reactions

    karras is the scheduler. lighning model usually prefer stochastic and fast sampler like euler_A, dpmpp_2s_A, dpmpp_sde, LCM, ddmp. if karras don't work or produces artifacts, try AYS_SDXL (there are sd1,5 and svd variant, depending on the checkpoint you use), then exponential, sgm_uniform,beta. ddim with ddim_uniform usually works too (make sure to use low cfg when working with "fast" model). if i have to give advice tho, better get normal fp16 model, then download dmd2 4 steps lora from huggingface. (4-8 steps, LCM or EUL_A with karras, lora strength at >0.6, or dpmpp_sde, dpmpp_2s_A, dpmpp_2m_sde and karras at <0.4 all cfg 1)

    I don’t know what’s wrong.
    The dataset seems good — I used 40 images, cropped them 1:1, and also tried training again without cropping.
    Same results in both cases.

    The output doesn’t look like me at all.

    There might be a slight resemblance…
    But for example, if I generate an image of myself in Paris with a wide frame, the person in the image looks nothing like me.
    In close-ups, some facial features are somewhat similar, but still not accurate — definitely not like the samples I’ve seen online.

    I’m using Automatic1111.
    The base model I trained on is the original SDXL.
    I also tried fine-tuning, but I’m still getting the same issue.

    What can I do to get more accurate results?

    See also the comment to @eneruwho's question below: The CFG and steps are too high for the lightning model, which requires different sampler settings. Try getting the normal variant (not lightning) for the CFG/steps you are using, or follow the advice in the other comment (use normal variant, add the DMD2 LoRA, then use LCM scheduler, CFG 1 and low step count around 8-10).

    edit: see description for lightning

    Use Lightning models with DPM++ SDE Karras / DPM++ SDE sampler, 4-6 steps and CFG Scale 1-2

    Haven't used lightning in a while, really suggest to try the normal 5.0 (non-lightning) and adding the DMD2 lora.
