i'm really impressed!

tested it with the worst lora that i have where you normally have to lower the weight way down and use tons of prompts to get a tiny bit of quality.

but since i was curious on what your VAE can do, i did not lower any weight and just used my "created" prompts to get an image. it still is a mess, but before your VAE it looked ways more pixelated and you could only tell from the looks that there is a person in it.

Is there a particular reason the fp- version is marked as private?

there is something negtive that i found out while testing/using your vae for a long time now:

on really many images, tested on anime and realistic, it generates some kind of blue dots anywhere on images. really only happens with your vae, since i have many other vaes to test my prompts on them to get results that i want.

those blue dots are always on faces or eyes, rarely on other parts of the body.

mostly happens when i don't prompt anything in positive or negative and simply prompt "1girl" on any checkpoint.

using anime-checkpoints, it happens only on 2 or 3 of 10 images, but using realistic checkpoints, it can be seen on every image.

my main settings: dpm++ 2m karras, 20 steps, cfg 7, 512x1024, no hires-fix and also no extras (adetailer or something else)
