⚡ These settings are not the same as the standard SDXL workflow — be sure to adjust your pipeline!💡 What’s the difference between FP16 and FP32 checkpoints?
FP16 (half precision) uses 16-bit floating-point weights. It’s smaller in size, loads faster, and uses less VRAM - perfect for normal image generation. You won’t notice any visual difference for inference, so it’s ideal for everyday use.
FP32 (full precision) uses 32-bit weights, which means it’s larger and heavier on resources. It doesn’t improve generation quality, but it’s better if you’re training, merging, or fine-tuning models, since it keeps the exact weight data without rounding loss.
🧠 Prompting
Example negative prompt:
cartoon, illustration, anime, painting, CGI, 3D render, low quality, watermark, logo, labelor use CyberRealistic Negative

⚠️ Heads-Up
This model can make mature or sensitive content. You’re fully responsible for what you create, so use it responsibly (or if you can’t resist, at least be artistically irresponsible).

Description
This checkpoint doesn’t just generate; it materializes. It doesn’t just respond; it sermonizes. And if you listen closely, you might even hear it whisper, “You’ve got this!” every time you hit generate. So, buckle up for greatness- no, for greater-than-greatness. This is greatness on a triple-shot of espresso with a side of “Wait, did it just do that?”
And yes, it can also venture into NSFW territory - because sometimes creativity needs to let its hair down. 😉

What was the goal with v5?
The goal with this checkpoint? Simple—world domination. Okay, maybe not that extreme, but it’s close!
Are you pondering what I'm pondering, Pinky?
@ShadowCell I think so, Brain, but isn't a cucumber that small called a gherkin?
No, Pinky! I have concocted a brilliant scheme to exploit humanity's weakness for spending inordinate amounts of time ogling images of women in various states of undress. By embedding hidden gamma-inducing subliminal signals within these irresistibly captivating images, we will subtly begin to seize control over their minds. Once they unwittingly succumb to using our checkpoints to propagate even more of these mind control images, then it will only be a matter of time before the entire world will be under our dominion, & I shall finally rule supreme!
@ShadowCell V5 rules in my atomic cellar bunker. The rest of the world may eat their Oreos.
This model saved my marriage thank you!
You're very welcome! It not only generates incredible content but also offers unsolicited marriage counseling, folds your laundry, and makes a killer cup of coffee. I'm glad to hear it brought harmony back to your household - next up, world peace! 😉
Your wife found a new hobby, and now generate a ton of futa. Be cautious.
Wow! Such a blessing seeing you stick to SDXL and making it even more MAGNIFICENT!
Thank you so much, I hope illustration styles will be much more included in the future! Your Model series has so much potential!
This is the realism goal, what your Pony and Illus models must reach.
😊 Achieving complete realism with Pony and Illustrious is quite challenging, as they are not inherently designed for realistic modeling. However, I've made significant progress with them so far.
@Cyberdelia Yes, i know. You mentioned earlier, that you merged your XL with Illus. Did you use new datas, or just finetuning for this version?
@Cyberdelia Wait! Is it possible to put swimsuit data from XL to Pony and Illus? When i prompt one-piece swimsuit in XL models i get, what i like the most, western style sexy swimsuits. In Pony and Ill i can only get anime style, japanes style.
I dont know, you should put under western style tag or something.
@elhadjiyahye917 No it's not a simple merge. I use training from XL.
Has alot of praise it seems, ill give it a shot. Haven't had the greatest experiences with XL. (mostly used pony since I came back last year). What do you think this model provides uniquely VS CyberPony or CyberIllus? cheers
Just more realistic. No hardcore, you can with pose loras though, but thats not the same.
que modelo tan bueno, esta muy infravalorado!
Your model seems better than jugger, and mb the best from xl. So, I didn't expect such quality from XL model. Of course, it's far from flux, but it's very very cool.
Far from Flux? This is more reality like. Flux has a certain... "Fluximity".
You recognize Flux images as Flux images from mile away. Nogood.
after watching a lot of images i really cant tell why people say Flux is so much more advanced. Is there any side-bySide comparision you can suggest which lead to your opinion?
@pink0909 flux got the prompt comprehension going going for it, any simpler prompts and i take this model any day. love it too
@gs825 thanks for your reply. I dont have issues with prompts anymore (maybe in the start when i was a beginner) but Prompt comprehensionhas doesn't reflect image quality directly imho. Maybe flux is hyped because it just spits out "masterpiece" image by default xD. Only model i found was bad is the SD15 base model, the Community added checkpoints really transfromed SD15 and SDXl from crap to gold imho. My judgement is based on images from Flux i saw on civit, since i am too lazy to try flux at the Moment, i am happy with what i have atm.
This model is really well trained, not overtrained. It adds so well to other sdxl checkpoints, using add/subtract sd_xl_base. I wish pony, bigasp, noob, illustrious, animagine had been trained like this, imagine the ecosystem?
Aweseome! This is in my top 3 along with Lustify and BigLove
ABSOLUETLY MINBLOWING 🤘🔥🔥
Hello, Ive been using cyber realistic XL checkpoints for a while, im currently using XL v5 and v2.2, on XL v5 im getting random blank generations, basically what I do is start with a pony checkpoint and then switch to a refiner with Cyber realistic XL v5 or V2.2. Im having the issue with only XL v5, v2.2 works okay. Can you please look into it ? I can provide some generations or seeds for your reference if you want to
