About this version

R7 Final XL (CLIP Skip 1) = I worked very hard to deliver the look of real life photographs made with regular-grade digital cameras with mid-grade attachable lens. Big attention was payed to the quality of anatomy (limbs anatomical correctness and natural pose), eyes (for ex., uneven eyes issue fix), fingers (finger number issue fix), background consistency (basically, fixing of the issue when straight lines in background don't match). I cannot say that this version fixes it all, but I tried to lower the chance of such issues to appear to the low level. I will continue to work on fighting the mentioned issues while trying to increase the creativity and the realism and details of the textures.

Rule for steps: 8 steps kinda works but gives smooth picture like LCM sampler but with any samplers; 16 steps starts to give details using contrast samplers like DPM++ 2S A; 25..30 steps sharp enough for single pass render, but small objects like eyes and fingers might be unstable; not yet tested on 40+ steps, but I don't expect significant quality improvement.

Euler A with CFG up to 6.0 and steps from 14 and greater works as LCM sampler for previous (DMD2 versions). Euler A gives low noise, very smooth pictures. Good for Text2Image with consequent HiRes fix using other samplers.

DPM++ 2S A + Karras with CFG near 2.5 and steps 20+ is good for realism and texture rendering/optimal to me as a Text-to-Image.
