    Nice work. Changing 'CLIP Set Last Layer' to -1 helps some quality.

    Man, You ahve no idea how many hours wasted on this. I'm not a fan of Base. I'll put that in the notes.

    Thanks

    Well, I appreciate you sharing the fruits of your labor. I am optimistic base will end up being good. Just needs training by those with more skill than myself, still learning. But I find tweaking the weight_dtype in the diffusion loader and bumping the clip to grab the additional layer makes a difference.

    hi..
    I get this error right off the bat:

    [GetNode] ✗ Variable 'Upscale Image' not found! Available: Height, Width, Upscale factor Tip: Make sure SetNode runs BEFORE GetNode in the graph.

    I didn't touch anything but the model, clip & vae

    Oh yah. I've seen that before. You need to update KJ nodes. Open your manager and hit "Update all"

    Symbiot78Feb 3, 2026

    thanks. I actually ended up having to revery back to the old manager and get everything updated through that. Dunno why. But no more errors. :-)

    @Symbiot78 Are you on desktop? You can thank ComfyUI for pushing a version that doesn't align with the new Torch 5.0 and Cuda
