    馃摝Custom Nodes :

    PuLID need your python to have Insightface :

    Check your python version :

    for windows portable version : (the path depends on where you unzipped ComfyUI)

    Download Insightface whl which corresponds here : Assets/Insightface
    (Here my local python is on 310 and mobile version in 312)

    Then install all prerequisites and insightface :

    python.exe -m pip install --use-pep517 facexlibpython.exe -m pip install git+https://github.com/rodjjo/filterpy.git
    python.exe -m pip install onnxruntime==1.19.2 onnxruntime-gpu==1.15.1 insightface-0.7.3-cp310-cp310-win_amd64.whl

    All in in "about this version" :
    What's new? :

    ComfyUi 0.3.29 positive node fix, (because last update break lot of node)

    LoRA fix with torch compile. (now lora work with torch compile)

    KiefstormApr 20, 2025

    @UmeAiRT聽thanks i've been using this site for months and never noticed that section

    DarkMaster13Apr 27, 2025

    Author just broke it 馃ぃ (I am joking) but version 2.1 not working聽for me
    All your ComfyUI nodes are missing required inputs, like vae_name, expression, format, frame_rate, noise_seed, sampler_name, etc.

    VenionApr 30, 2025

    @DarkMaster13聽If you have installed the mixlab nodes, delete them and see if the problem persists.

    I'm really confused, I've used this before and had no issues, now I'm getting OOM and my settings everything is the same, am I missing something, I'm running 4060 8gbvram 32gb ram I've tried sage I've tried lowram. It will complete all the way up to the part going into making the video then I'll get the OOM. Before it didn't do that, I am using GGUF too.

    ritonenierApr 22, 2025

    Same, new workflow 2.1 make almost my GGUF OOM.

    drdewme618Apr 22, 2025

    @ritonenier聽What i ended up doing is using face2video then bypassing the winvideo node so it stops, then i use the picture i just made into image2video, and that worked i guess for now

    Using FLUX and WAN in the same workflow requires a lot of VRAM. It is better to make the image with FLUX first as suggested by drdewme618 to save VRAM. (torchcompile use lot of VRAM too)

    drdewme618Apr 22, 2025

    @UmeAiRT聽Is there anyway to make a FACE TO IMAGE workflow? THen i could just use that face and put it into image2 video. if possible thank you for the reply

    mrw21jApr 26, 20251 reaction

    Add a Clean VRAM mode and Unload all models node after each generation. I do this and can run on 8GB VRAM laptop GGUF.

    ritonenierApr 26, 2025

    @mrw21j聽can you share your workflow? mine not working

    This workflow causes issues after issue, ive fixed about 4 hours of issues and then 20 more crop up, rebuilt everything, reinstalled everything, and still, i feel like i need to get a team of code scientists to work on this 24/7 for a year just to backtrack all the missing dependencies.

    johannesdolch539May 1, 2025

    Just use his all in one installer. You probably just messed up somewhere. Easy to do. Comfy, and python in general is finnicky as hell.

    ZhozhaJan 14, 2026

    @johannesdolch539聽his installer couldn't pass middle steps and just drops lots of errors then freezes the command line, was even trying to install it on a freshly installed clean windows, simply not working. And according to comments, there isn't just a single problem, unfortunately he broke it with updates

    I'v got an issue with the following line in python 3.12.9

    .\python.exe -m pip install --use-pep517 facexlibpython.exe -m pip install git+https://github.com/rodjjo/filterpy.git

    return value "no such option: -m"
    All the requierement seems well install, i've got the facexlib into this folder "ComfyUI_windows_portable-0.3.29\python_embeded\Lib\site-packages\facexlib\"

    DarkMaster13Apr 27, 20251 reaction

    it 2 different commands use it separately聽
    python.exe -m pip install --use-pep517 facexlib
    python.exe -m pip install git+https://github.com/rodjjo/filterpy.git

    and for python 3.12 (download insightface-0.7.3-cp312-cp312-win_amd64.whl before of cource:)聽 )
    python.exe -m pip install onnxruntime==1.19.2 onnxruntime-gpu==1.19.2 insightface-0.7.3-cp312-cp312-win_amd64.whl

    @ag13trash994聽This problem comes from apex which is not present or not compiled with CUDA

    ag13trash994May 4, 2025

    @UmeAiRT聽I used your most recent version of the all in one installer. It looks like it was not able to install apex into the embedded python at all.

    @ag13trash994聽I fixed this problem in the installer for FLUX, I have to do it for WAN too.

    ag13trash994May 4, 2025

    @UmeAiRT聽10-4. Thank you

    ag13trash994May 4, 2025

    I fixed this by renaming fused_layer_norm.py to fused_layer_norm_cuda.py, located in the embedded python - \lib\site-packages\apex\normalization\

    hydroxidoMay 5, 2025

    @UmeAiRT聽thanks, so i have to run the installer again?

    tinyGiantJul 14, 2025

    @ag13trash994聽you installed the CPU version instead of GPU version, xxx_cuda is GPU version, since you renamed it it will use the CPU (slower)

    tdkstdi883Aug 7, 2025

    getting the same error as well,

    goldgeoMay 5, 2025

    Also go the "fused_layer_norm_cuda" error. Fixed with the suggest rename, then I progress to this error:

    ApplyPulidFlux

    CUDA error: no kernel image is available for execution on the device CUDA kernel errors might be asynchronously reported at some other API call, so the stacktrace below might be incorrect. For debugging consider passing CUDA_LAUNCH_BLOCKING=1 Compile with TORCH_USE_CUDA_DSA to enable device-side assertions.

    I am using the combined installer, and get no issue with i2v workflow.

    I got the same error
