My 2-stage (base + refiner) workflows for SDXL 1.0 in ComfyUI, with separate prompts for text encoders. If you don't need LoRA support, separate seeds, CLIP controls, or hires fix - you can just grab basic v1.0 workflow. Works with bare ComfyUI (no custom nodes needed).

SD+XL workflows are variants that can use previous generations SD models to provide initial scene concept.

Links to SDXL 1.0 model files:

• sd_xl_base_1.0.safetensors or sd_xl_base_1.0_0.9vae.safetensors* (6.94 GB),

• sd_xl_refiner_1.0.safetensors or sd_xl_refiner_1.0_0.9vae.safetensors* (6.08 GB),

• sd_xl_offset_example-lora_1.0.safetensors (49.6 MB).

* versions with fixed issue #4310.

Link to my SD 1.5 variant used in SD+XL workflow:

• MoonRide Mix 10 (you can replace it with any other SD variant you like).

Parameters to play with:

• text in prompts,

• width and height (but stick to combinations used during SDXL training - listed in notes section),

• noise seeds,

• steps ("end_at_step" is switching point between base and refiner - should be about 50% to 95% of total steps, depending on selected scheduler and samplers - look at preview image from base to check what is being passed to refiner stage),

• scheduler,

• sampler names,

• cfg (lower - more creative, but also less defined),

• CLIP Skip (-1 will treat prompts more literally, -3 will generalise),

• LoRA strengths (0 means disabled).

Cheers, and have fun!
