I rose from the dead so to begin with:
V9 - better at everything but a little less natural and more “AI-ish”, doesn't need negative embeddings and detailer every time
V8 - maybe inferior sometimes and trained too much so deviate from the “pony stuff” but believe me it makes a great base for teaching lora for specific characters etc
Tips:
Use ADetailer and/or HiResFix!
Recommended CFG ~5 (7 is ok but less realistic)
In ADetailer recommended denoising strength ~0.15 (0.1-0.2 is good)
In ADetailer to avoid some kind of cutoffs "Use separate VAE" and set it to standard sdxl vae
To avoid oversaturated images when using HighResFix change vae during process to standard sdxl (there is a separate button in Automatic1111 webui to create an upscaled version of the currently generated image)
For X and higher models recommended sampler is DPM++ 2S a

for anyone seeing major issues with the outputs for 6a-c, don't forget to enable the sdxl vae
Yes, many think the "automatic" setting works all the time. It rarely does for me. To add: If output ever looks "washed out" like the black levels have been raised to Vizio TV Vivid levels, then you most likely aren't using the right vae. It's almost always the wrong or no vae is being used.
Most SDXL based models use the standard SDXL VAE but this isn't always the case and some models have a custom vae that they use.
@LetTheBassDrop 'Vizio TV Vivid levels' I'm dead
Btw it's interesting that v5 didn't seem to require the VAE. Guess it was baked in or something.
Either way, this is the best realistic pony I've tested.
@olivereaduzuh damn, my mistake I usually baked some vae most suitable for model but now I forgot about it because I released 3 at once...
@OsorubeshiAI No worries man, keep up the great work!
Hello, can you tell me where I can download this VAE? When I download SDXL_VAE output photos, the screen will be broken
@jcling pretty sure the regular one should work: https://huggingface.co/stabilityai/sdxl-vae/tree/main
@olivereaduzuh thanks
This is my favorite realistic pony model.
I like it for futanari!👍
The picture is gray. Why is he so bad at drawing?
missing vae?
