    Make sure to check out my new Lightning version: Aetherverse Lightning XL

    This is Aetherverse XL - a multi-concept model that does everything from great renders to photorealism. It inhabits rich and vibrant colors with a great dynamic range that reaches from deep blacks to bright nuanced whites. Keep to DPM++ 2M Karras and DPM++ SDE Karras for good results at 20-30 steps.

    To achieve deeper blacks, simply prompt for contrast, very dark, black, black background, night etc.

    Note:

    References to danbooru tagging such as 1girl shown in one prompt or so is entirely incidental copy pasta. This model was trained on 100% original captions, manually corrected.

    Is the VAE built in?

    Yes! 馃檪

    Can someone please explain why it's important the VAE to be built in? Is it a limitation in some s/w, is it more convenient? Personally, I use comfy and an external VAE, maybe I'm missing something important and there's a useful trick to uncover.

    @green_anger The only issue I know of is that there has been artefact issues with sdxl so the fixed vae is important to get rid of that stuff. It sure works. To make sure people get the best results with my model I chose to merge it in.

    @joachim_s聽OK, so it's more for convenience. I've been using the fixed VAE and it didn't give any problems indeed. Thanks!

    so far this one is pretty good. I wish it were a bit sharper though, its kind of soft at larger sizes, I use 1600x1024, quite a few I can zoom in to 300% and its sharp, I can do only about half of that. Its a fair test since I do enlarge these.

    So how is the upscaling done? It is not clear from your posting if you started out at 1600x1024, or if you started at a lower resolution and then upscaled it to 1600x1024.

    And you do not experience this problem with other SDXL models?
