A finetune, aligning NoobAI v-pred 1.0 to Anzhc's EQ-VAE-B7 for basic usage and further training with loras or finetuning, less noisy generations due to cleaner latents at training time, usual v-pred shenanigans apply, but model should be more resilient to colors exploding and colors should be a bit cleaner overall compared to base v-pred, does this behave like a slight aesthetic tunning? yes due to limited data get me a 5090 and I can do bigger finetunes instead of choking my 4090,, this was trained for 370k steps on 1x4090 I slammed my head hard against the dataset and compute wall, go donate to Anzhc for his efforts training the VAE.

If you like it, and see some future for it, donate to me at Ko-fi as this was trained at my own expense and it took several days of tries with single GPU Training in a 4090.

Generation settings? Default v-pred, just use the bundled VAE, or B7 from Anzhc's Repo, yes he is banned, yes I'll claim the NoobAI1.1EQ he did and the VAEs here in civitai as he has given my permission to claim those.

Does this still leak random styles with some tokens due to Natural Language? yes it fucking does, fuck Natural Language with Clip L and G

Some shitty comparisons
Raw gen

levels changed to expose noise in the background which remains very consistent

Same image in base v-pred

levels changed to expose noise in the background which remains very bad
