    UPDATE:

    Some of you seems having trouble to run checkpoint. According to feedbacks that i am receiving, outputs are getting odd. I've re-uploaded the checkpoint just in-case.

    I've tried the checkpoint with 1.5.x, 1.6.9 and 1.9.x a1111 api's. Everything worked fine with multiple schedulers.

    If you are still getting errors, remove everything on the "override settings" if you are using A1111. Thgen if you need to please make sure you have updated drivers, updated and correct cuda (cudnn) versions. Also check gradio versions as well. On my end, everything works without a problem.

    ıf you do all actions that i've listed and still getting error, please provide a bad sample image, so i can directly read the metadata of your bad sample and check what is wrong. :)

    I started to make this model as improved of my freel_photo. Eventually it got serious and changed into something good.

    (Attention: let's say i sent 100 sample of photos, about 10 of them used adetailer. )

    You can achieve really photorealistic images. About hand issue somewhat solved considered early trial that is freel_photo and it produce better hands but you still need lora, adetailer for perfection.

    Added more head variations. It is not only producing great variety of head types, i finally balanced highly biased asian faces weights to caucasian faces. It still produce those faces but not biased as some of checkpoints out there. So you might not need to prompt to exclude them all the time.

    at this point i'm satisfied about light, skin tones, skin textures. I might do little bit more tweak in the future on those weights.

    Trained and merged with my test checkpoints, freel_photo. Trained some custom weight layers from scratch to experience those to understand better that how it works. :)

    I have a plan to add more

    • face features,

    • young - old correlation.

    • better male subjects, anatomy ( yet it is improved on this point to get, better nsfw poses, somewhat better penetration textures and somewhat better penis)

    • thinking to add more landscapes, more interiors to get lifelike varieties for portraits.

    I humbly ask you to give me a feedback, ideas about portrait composition, background subjects.

    If you like the checkpoint or don't like the checkpoint, comment about it, that would be nice to have. So i can improve it.

    @Brekuji hires steps 10-20 range would be enough, denoise between 0 to 0.40 would be efficient.
