Verions 9:
I decided to leave version 8 for those who want to play with it, here is version 9.
As for samplers it should be pretty much the usual.
I mostly used DPM++ 2s a in my tests.
Version 8 experimental:
Not 100% sure yet about the samplers, should be similar to V7.5
Also careful with the negatives seems too much can make it worse.
It can be quite finicky but makes a nice film / polaroid style effect if you wan to.
2 things I noticed is it works with Euler a but if can cause issues with Adetailer.
Harder to get it to fallow background prompts it seems, you might have to force them a bit.
I guess the experimental really fits, it looks like you can get some interesting results too without the pony scoring and even some standard SDXL embedding.
Example from what happened to me, can't make elf ears, removed the pony scoring and there they where.
Version 7 and 7.5:
Euler a, DPM ++ 2M, LCM starting 8 steps (12 is better)
DPM++ starting 4 steps (6 or more is better)
DPM++ 2s a might be good too
Version 6:
Euler a Karras cfg 2 8 steps or cfg 3 12 steps
If you get artefacts lower the cfg by 0.5 or up the steps.
DPM++ SDE and LCM seem fine too.
So does DPM++ 2m SDE SGUniform
Version 2:
DPM++ SDE Karras or SGM Unifrom
Steps: 4-8
CFG: 2-3 (1 works at 8 steps, 4 seems ok after 6 steps)
Euler a Karras or SGM Uniform
Steps: 8-12
CFG: 2-3
Description
quite a few but still decided to call it 7.5
some times more realistic (depends a lot on prompt)
more futa
slightly better hands
anthropomorphic is still there but different (I guess because of the more realistic)
pose is usually fairly similar to v7
perhaps more that I did not notice yet
Did some comparison pics that I will post.

Looking forward to trying 7.5... I will say I've tried so many realistic PONY models so far and this is by far the best one. PERFECT mix of realism but still follows prompts well. There are more realistic out there but they don't follow the unique pony flexibility in prompt styles. Keep up the good work.
Thanks, I was trying to keep it as much Pony and flexible as possible. Version 7.5 can be a bit tricky with non human skin colors however.
Fantastic! Also mixes well with other Checkpoints and still retains most of the speed. Nicely done!
What upscaler do you use ? very high quality, great work.
I discovered this that someone was using on his checkpoint, like it way better then some 4x ones.
1x-ITF-SkinDiffDetail-Lite-v1, you can get it here https://openmodeldb.info/models/1x-ITF-SkinDiffDetail-Lite-v1
it is faster to especially on low end machines.
@TiwazM Will download and try it out, thanks for response :)
Really loving this model...follows prompt quite well and even if you use 2 or 3 Loras the results come out pretty 👍 👍 👍
This is amazing. Great images out of the gate, withouth style Loras. Seems to follow prompts exceptionally well. Well done!
Version 8 works bad with ADetailer but not sure why, if anyone has an idea, please let me know.
