    @punzel This one is without LORA, What I was hoping for was one with LORA. Because I do not yet know if we can just add the lora loader in the flux workflow and where to place it. Iwould it be similar to what we are used to?

    @punzel  Hi! can you pass me your Workflow for Loras with Flux? that link is now down, thanks!!

    user1234123Aug 10, 2024

    @MakeThemComeAliveAIArt Finally the last link works, but I noticed it's a loraloadermodelonly loader, so all of these new Lora's have no sd1_clip or t5 clip built in? That doesn't seem very ideal. The loras have layers called diffusion_model.double_blocks.0.txt_attn.proj.lora_down.weight [32, 3 072]

    diffusion_model.double_blocks.0.txt_attn.proj.lora_up.weight [3 072, 32]

    diffusion_model.double_blocks.0.txt_attn.qkv.lora_down.weight [32, 3 072]

    diffusion_model.double_blocks.0.txt_attn.qkv.lora_up.weight So maybe it's automatic somehow now and encodes that layers with the text? They are all BF16 layers.

    When I use this lora it rather seems to destroy the composition instead of enhancing it. As far as I have tested it, flux just looks better without it. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong here?

    Very limited testing: Use this at 0.4 to get rid of the airbrushed look, without messing up the things that make Flux good. At 0.8 and 1.0 it was messing up the hands.

    Hey that image (girl presenting TED backboard with MIC) is orinally my creation posted at reddit.

    Feel the difference between using Flux with Lora(from XLab) and with no Lora. Skin, Hair, Wrinkles. No Comfy, pure CLI. : r/StableDiffusion (reddit.com)

    and It's not used Realism LoRA. It's just txt2img and my custom workflow upscale.

    I uploaded similar image on this: Image posted by Ted_Chang (civitai.com)

    PopoPotatoJoeShmoeAug 15, 2024· 4 reactions

    That's what i figured out when I tried to recreate the image by using a similar prompt. I noticed that my generated image came closer to the quality of your image without the realism lora. The lora made it worse tbh.

    santaiAug 16, 2024· 3 reactions

    That was my thought - your image was presented before this LoRA. Imo, that puts XLabs in a gray light.
    Apart from that - from my exp this lora doesn't bring value.

    Does this LORA work with anything other than Flux? I use it and it seems there is a noticeable effect in the detail of the faces.

    This Lora insists on generating a microphone in hand and a lanyard around the neck, no matter what you tell it. This was quickly confirmed during a brief test. I still need to figure out where the problem is, whether it's with the Lora or something else.

    I know that this model sparks controversy, messes up hands and compositions, but it brings a magical and fairytale-like atmosphere to the generated images. I recommend giving it a try.

    Has absolutely no effect on the image. I tried it on all gguf & og flux, & tried euler & dpm & nothing changes.

    With Euler_simple and Flux-Guidance 1.8 -2.3, a very photo-realistic image generation is possible.

    I'm aware that a version of this LoRA has been made explicitly for comfyUI as the former one didn't change anything at all. If you can get that version you can actually enjoy a pretty good LoRA. Tested this one here on Comfyflow and it can easily give me crippled figures unless I lower its strength to, say, .6 or less, which means it has worked so far and just needs some tuning.

    The worst part of it is there is no documentation at all and you can only proceed by other's feedbacks and guesswork.

    The comfyui version works pretty well. Might need to lower strength to avoid hands being messed up.

    Hello, let me ask you: is the comfyui model suitable for sd forge or do I need v1? What is the specific difference between the lore for comfyui and forge, is there something that doesn’t work on comfyui that works on forge? Is it backwards compatible? Sorry for my English, oh, this translator =)

    Keroro_GunsoNov 5, 2024

    The comfy conversion is the one you want. It will work on forge

    so what? I hope you realize that both have a plasticky look nothing like real photographs.
    AkalabethNov 8, 2024· 3 reactions

    @indiffident76398 My opinion in this case does not matter, because I did this test so that people could see the changes and the idea of ​​this LoRA and make a decision for themselves: do they want to use it or not.

    I also did a bit of comparison. https://civitai.com/images/50862513

    Personally I don't see much difference. Examining the images, it seems the Lora makes the microphone longer, but aside from that, I don't see much for increased realism over the images that don't have the Lora. Of course I did run these in my own model that already has high realism. It does look nice overall and maybe if you are using the base Flux or using it on an online generator that you can add the Lora in with a link or something, it can be a nice addition.

    How to even get this working in ForceUI? I'm using Flux bnb nf4 v2... Is there a compatible version?

    GinBuddy57746Apr 8, 2025

    I read this in a forum and it may or may not be true, but several people stated that nf4 doesn't work with LoRAs. I tried and this was my experience too. None of them worked.

    amandalevresApr 21, 2025· 3 reactions

    @GinBuddy57746  I've found that using bnb-nf4 (fp16 LoRA in Diffusion in low bits works fine with LoRas in ForgeUI

    this lora is by bytedance and intended to be used with their infiniteYou script for Flux models, you may find the explanation on their github here

    Adds what lacks to flux when the prompt forces the model, sometimes at the expense of details.
