    Neural Repair & Portable Checkpoints Lora Type.

    Hello! I'm back with something much juicier than ever!

    Originally, I planned to release more Samplers (and I will), but I pivoted to solve a critical flaw I found in the community: Many popular merged checkpoints have a corrupted Layer 11.

    • This translates to:

      • āŒ Text Encoder errors (NaNs).

      • āŒ Poor LoRA compatibility.

      • āŒ Massive information loss.

    • And here's the solution: [Anti-Nans + RAM Cleaner] Uh-huh... The LoRA repair method failed, so I engineered a Runtime Fixer. Just paste the provided script into a new cell in your Colab/Notebook, run it before the WebUI, and you are good to go.

      • Herrscher Shield: Scans Layer 11 and eliminates NaNs in RAM instantly. No need to download fixed checkpoints.

      • AGGA Optimizer: Aggressively cleans RAM to prevent Colab crashes.


    Okay, now let's talk about these Loras (Total / Duplo / Ultra):

    These LoRAs function as "Structural Converters."

    Think of them as a high-end "Cosplay" for your checkpoints: they allow a lightweight model to adopt the exact visual DNA, intelligence, and stylistic precision of a massive 6GB checkpoint (like Pony or Illustrious).

    Instead of dealing with architectural instability or NaNs, I have distilled the core features of these giant models into optimized 500MB-1GB files. They let you inject the prompt-understanding and "soul" of a heavy base model into any other refined checkpoint without the overhead of downloading or loading 6GB files every time.

    • In conclusion: Now you have a tool for every need:

      • Do you just want a refined DMD? -> Total.

      • Do you want the information and style? -> Duplo.

      • Do you want it all? It'll be a Copy -> Ultra.


    🟢 TOTAL (Concept Injector):

    • What it extracts?: Text Encoders + attn2 (Cross-Attention).

      • Complete Version: Extracts Text Encoders + attn2 (Cross-Attention). It’s the "Brain" of the model.

      • Visual Only Version: Extracts only the Style (UNet). | DMD2 Pure.

    • What does it do?: Associates words with concepts.

      • Total knows that "Miku" means "Teal hair, long pigtails".

    • Result: Corrects what is drawn, but the "brushstroke" remains from your base model.

    🟔 DUPLO (Structure & Geometry):

    • What it extracts?: Text Encoders + attn2 + attn1 (Self-Attention).

    • What does it do?: Controls geometry and spatial composition. attn1 is where the "shape" of the style resides (eye size, body proportions, composition).

    • Result: The image gets the structure of the source model (e.g., Pony), but the rendering (skin, lighting) is a hybrid.

      • Best for fixing anatomy while keeping your checkpoint's texture.

    šŸ”“ ULTRA (Full Replica):

    • What it extracts?: EVERYTHING (attn, ff, proj, te).

    • What does it do?: Copies the FeedForward (FF) layers too, which determine the Render Style (lighting, line weight, shading).

    • Result: A complete conversion. The base model visually disappears and becomes a perfect replica of the source.


    āš ļø IMPORTANT VERSIONS & WARNINGS

    🟔 Visual Only vs. Complete (Zip)

    • Visual (Online Gen Friendly): Use this for quick style transfer.

    • Complete (Zip): Includes the "Fixed" files that connect text properly. Use this for serious work.

    • Note: I fixed Duplo, but the IL & NoobAI base is sensitive. Treat it with care!


    āš ļø Visual Only Usage Note:Ā Don't be scared! Even though this is based on my DMD2 architecture:

    It works perfectly atĀ HIGH STEPSĀ (20-30+) without burning (great for detailing).

    It works perfectly atĀ LOW STEPSĀ (4-8) for speed.

    Description

    Hi, I'm back with pixel art! This time I used a specific pixel art checkpoint as a base (Illustrious "PixelArt" from HaDeS), but I adapted it to my own workflow.

    The main challenge is that Velvette doesn't do pixel art natively (I think that's the simplest proof that this method actually works). It was tricky because my previous workflow kept the DMD2 base at 100% (which translates to three LoRAs being way too strong for specific concept/style mini-checkpoints). However, just when I was about to give up, I decided to reduce the DMD2 strength to 70% (just like I did with Voxel). This made the LoRA work great at 16-18 steps, allowing for higher CFGs, but I wanted to achieve the same result with fewer steps without losing that intensity.

    So, I started playing around with the math of the Up and Down vectors. I simply multiplied them directly, since "cooking" (re-training) an extraction taken from a checkpoint only introduces noise (I already tried that, and it just doesn't work the same).

    In short: it was a really fun experiment, and now I have a new tool capable of slashing generation time from 16 steps down to just 6 steps for pixel art. It used to be complicated to pull off, but we are improving. Hope you enjoy it! xD

    I'm using Velvette-XL v4 in Forge, with the seed number locked. Using the example graph parameters, I tested that with LoRa enabled or disabled, the generated graphs were identical; they all failed to take effect. Only HerrscherAGGA2026_DMD2_Brain_NoobAI_Total_VISUAL_ONLY worked, producing a noticeable difference. Why is this?

    Return prompt [LORA] LoRA version mismatch for KModel: F:\sd-webui-forge-aki-v1.0\models\Lora\HerrscherAGGA2026_ULTRA_VoxelSuit_DMD2_v11.safetensors

    Hi! Thanks for the report.

    The LoRA is correctly named and works perfectly in A1111 standard. The error you are seeing in Forge (LoRA version mismatch for KModel) happens because Forge's loader is much stricter with Text Encoder architectures than A1111 or ReForge.

    Basically, Forge is rejecting the Text Encoder part of the LoRA due to a strict shape check, causing the whole file to be ignored.

    However, I personally tested it in A1111 and ReForge before publishing, and it worked flawlessly. The quick solution would be to delete the TE1&TE2 (Text Encoder), but that would make the LoRA unnecessarily heavy and less smart, since the Ultra version extracts a lot of concept info from the checkpoint that we don't want to lose.

    I am currently working on a proper fix to make the architecture Forge-compatible without losing quality. It should be ready very soon. Thanks for the heads-up!

    By the way, I usually use this environment for my tests (I recommend A1111 for best compatibility):

    # @title WebUI Installer {"display-mode":"form"}

    UI = 'ReForge' # @param ["A1111", "Forge", "ComfyUI", "ReForge", "SwarmUI"]

    Hi, can you briefly explain to me what this Lora does?

    Hi~, these LoRAs act as "Model Converters". They allow you to inject the intelligence and quality of a massive 6GB model (like Pony/Illustrious) into your current workflow without downloading the full checkpoint.

    @Herrscher_AGGAĀ ok,thx a lot

    @Herrscher_AGGAĀ Hi, Boss, so I try use it in combination with checkpoint like WAI or Oneobsession. I thought the picture became nicer. I just noticed that your pinned images are done like that. It turns out that "2 checkpoints" are working? O_O

    Hey @mifink94 You caught me! šŸ˜‰ That's exactly what's happening.

    Because of how these LoRAs are extracted (grabbing the core structural layers and Text Encoders), using them is essentially doing a high-quality "Live Merge" of 2 checkpoints on the fly, without the 6GB download.

    It works beautifully with checkpoints like Oneobsession or WAI because I analyzed their "Neural DNA" during development. Their internal math (tensor weights) is extremely compatible with the base I used. They share the same structural language, so instead of fighting each other, they stack their best qualities.

    Have fun experimenting! :3

    @mifink94Ā Hahaha, thank you so much for the huge compliment! But honestly, the real Nobel Prize goes to the creators of those amazing checkpoints. They did all the heavy lifting with the massive training and dataset building.

    I just figured out how to pack all their hard work into a portable backpack so our hard drives (and VRAM) don't explode with so many gigabytes! jeje :3 Enjoy the portability!
