UPDATE: removed Photomaker version, because it actually had no effect.
I want to stress that you MUST update your comfyUI to the latest version, you should also update ALL your custom nodes because there is no way to know which ones might have affect the UNET, CLIP and VAE spaces which cascade is now using to generate our images.
In addition, i have disabled a lot of custom nodes i did not need on that run. it's easy, just add ".disabled" to the folder name. This is what the button does in the manager. it's very easy to "switch off" some custom nodes in this way.

Everything Below applied to the early Method for loadings all the models here: official repo: https://huggingface.co/stabilityai/stable-cascade
~ i will leave the Early method here, for anyone wishing to use it :)
UltraBasic Stable Cascade Workflows for ComfyUI:
Article here: https://civarchive.com/articles/4161
IMG2IMG UPDATE:
these older workflows were deprecated on day 4 by a new method, however still work fine.
v10 = txt2img Stable Cascade here: https://civarchive.com/models/310409?modelVersionId=348385
v12 = v10 txt2img without custom nodes: https://civarchive.com/models/310409?modelVersionId=351470
v16 = img2img (stage C) Stable Cascade Workflow here: https://civarchive.com/models/310409?modelVersionId=351400
v17 = v16 img2img without custom nodes for scaling: https://civarchive.com/models/310409?modelVersionId=351464
v18 = v16 img2img (stage B and C ) now supported by new default node: https://civarchive.com/models/310409?modelVersionId=351658
You can squeeze it only any GPU if you use the correct combination.
These notes are in the Workflow also ;)
Cascade Combos:
stage_b + stage_c ~ 22GB
stage_b_bf16 + stage_c_bf16 ~ 12GB
stage_b_lite + stage_c_lite ~ 8GB
stage_b_lite_bf16 + stage_c_lite_bf16 ~ 5GB
I put together to paths you need to put all the models in case you had to manually DL each of them, due to a poor connection or whatever :)

got the models, couldn't get the missing nodes to install, they don't appear in the manager when I click install missing nodes
the only important custom node is "Reactor" which is needed for faceswapping. you can bypass that if it does not load. the other custom nodes are taking your loaded image, cropping to 1:1 aspect ratio and resizing to 2048x longest side. this is to ensure a square ratio image is passed in. you can remove these nodes and use whatever nodes you have to hand. I release earlier versions v30,40,50,60, which should not have any custom nodes/ :)
@driftjohnson I'm trying to use txt2img and it gives me errors
@driftjohnson i have same proplem https://ibb.co/X8pzf8v
how to fix this
@driftjohnson never mind i update all and it has nothing missed now :D
downloading the models and i will try it ... thanks
ive put the files in the checkpoints folder but i, still getting an error as if they arent found
CheckpointLoaderSimple: - Value not in list: ckpt_name: 'stable_cascade_stage_c.safetensors' not in []
any help ?
sounds like maybe your comfy is outdated and didn't understand the new checkpoint. try to update the comfyUI and see if that fixed it for you.
@driftjohnson the models ad failed during their downloads!
@jonathanperreault42688 I had other different problems, but for me this particular issues was an easy fix of just highlighting the ckpt description in the failed node and it automatically offers you to replace it with the name of the existing equivalent file that it does find in your directory.
@jonathanperreault42688 you can try downloading them manually with a web browser like google chrome, it has a "resume" feature if a download is interrupted, useful when connection problems happen.
If i'm understanding you right :)
@Boney thats a feature i've not even yet seen!
Error occurred when executing CheckpointLoaderSimple: 'model.diffusion_model.input_blocks.0.0.weight'
Can't get around it. I've even redownloaded the models for Stable Cascade.
is your comfyui up to date? Cascade requires the latest update, because it's less than a week old
https://civitai.com/models/310409?modelVersionId=353583&dialog=commentThread&commentId=356928 This might help, i had same error.
looks like the versions below v20 that used a different setup will work with more GPU's
I've got exactly the same error. Have updated comfui/all and tried changing names of cascade files to match your default but still get 'model.diffusion_model.input_blocks.0.0.weight'. Have a 4070Ti Super (16G vram). No problem running other Cascade basic workflows. Hope I can make this workflow work somehow...looks magic.
@Boney There have been more ComfyUI updates, so it's hard to say from day to day. There is always the chance that a problem was existing and was fixed before i get to testing it ! Crazy speed in this space :)
