And w4r10ck's <a target="_blank" rel="ugc" href="https://civarchive.com/models/122359?modelVersionId=135867">Detail Tweaker'</a>s in there as well. I tend to use UniPC or Euler A. V.2: A blend of Stoiq's <a target="_blank" rel="ugc" href="https://civarchive.com/models/161068?modelVersionId=690310">New Reality</a> with <a target="_blank" rel="ugc" href="https://civarchive.com/models/249324?modelVersionId=2172127">NQP v1</a> and <a target="_blank" rel="ugc" href="https://civarchive.com/models/251417?modelVersionId=283697">Midjourney Mimic 1.2</a> No VAE needed. I tend to use UniPC or Euler A. V.1: This first version is a proof-of-concept merge. It seems to work as I expected and future NQE merges may or may not follow this same idea. I took my checkpoint <a target="_blank" rel="ugc" href="https://civarchive.com/models/1904067?modelVersionId=2158285">Photoboobs</a>, and merged it with Stoiq's <a target="_blank" rel="ugc" href="https://civarchive.com/models/161068?modelVersionId=690310">New Reality</a>. Then, to see if it worked, I added all of my LoRA's I've made so far for '<a target="_blank" rel="ugc" href="https://civarchive.com/collections/12919073">Sunnypeak Commons'</a> (Macy, Piper, Kayeligh, Vicky) and if you use their tags with this checkpoint, you get a halfway decent representation of their LoRAs. I learned a lot from this and the next NQE may benefit from this...we'll see.
