    Could you make the .ckpt version available?

    odawgthatJan 5, 2023

    If you have the AUTOMATIC1111 version you can use this version, idk about other types of stable diffusion

    odawgthatJan 5, 2023

    Then for the config file just copy your one from the base version and rename it

    can you provide huggingface or google drive link also because it easy to load in colab

    nosuchnumberJan 7, 2023· 2 reactions

    Use:

    !wget https://civitai.com/api/download/models/<modelVersionId> --content-disposition

    Thanks already done this works

    The author of this model has shared on Huggingface as well: https://huggingface.co/darkstorm2150 Linking to Huggingface inside Colab would ensure a faster download

    This one has a different core file, the 5.3 used F222's and hassanBlendAllVersion, this one uses DreamLike-PhotoReal V.2

    I can run this in my 4GB GPU

    t0mgJan 5, 2023

    I don't know if there's any reason, but I was having the same issue with the .safetensors file. Downloading the .ckpt file seems to work fine for me now. (I have 8GB)

    adelv2222Jan 6, 2023

    I have a 6gb GPU (3060 laptop) with xformers and medvram enabled, but try to reach resolution and details as high as possible (txtoimg, imgtoimg, outpainting etc...) before final upsizing

    Apparently it assumed all dwarves are male with thick beards:

    Still gave me male dwarves

    You could try dwarf with normal weight, and female with more weight, e.g.:

    Do you know why when I try to merge this model as base model, it makes my image looks more crispy and I'm getting worse eyes?

    Love Protogen but this one I'm not sure what's wrong with it.

    Merging is a difficult process, if you have this as a base, make sure you use only 5% (its m 0.05) of a merge, anything higher and the model takes a hit in quality

    LunaJan 7, 2023

    Thank you for your response, I got some idea just from that.

    penny01Jan 8, 2023

    In my personal opinion, the model may not have a clear understanding of the concept of "beauty", so I often need to use more related keywords to constrain it and make it generate more "beautiful" images. Using a suitable Hypernetwork also helps improve the results.

    Please do not create models from models with restrictive licenses! Those restrictions are a virus that infects everything downstream. Say NO to Dreamlike.

    If you can, please add real pruned models. "Pruning" does not mean to downgrade it to fp16. Only to remove the training dictionary from it. I had to use the Stable Diffusion Toolkit to get a real pruned version of this. Thank you for considering!

    this is a great guide, thank you!

    technikerJan 20, 2023

    I get an error when I try to prune the file using the toolbox because the ckpt is missing the state_dict key:

    Stable Diffusion ToolboxV1\scripts\prune_ckpt.py", line 47, in prune_it
    sd = nsd['state_dict'].copy()
    KeyError: 'state_dict'

    How did you manage to prune this using the toolkit?

    darkstorm2150
    Author
    Jan 21, 2023

    @techniker I didn't use this toolkit, I used a more simple commandline one

    technikerJan 31, 2023

    @darkstorm2150 we are currently debugging an issue with your pruned models over at nod-ai/SHARK as they cannot be converted to diffusers using the Huggingface toolset. Would you mind sharing your approach? There is an open issue for that if you don't want to post here: https://github.com/nod-ai/SHARK/issues/892

    @techniker I think @robot1me was right, I might have been not able to prune it properly to begin with, just convert it to fp16 only, I used this github software

    I like this model but man it has a huge bias towards generating women. Even with ((((male)))) in the prompt and female, woman, girl, etc. in the negative prompt it will still draw women more times than not.

    JesseJan 18, 2023· 2 reactions

    Experimenting more with it, it appears to be tied to the "modelshoot style" tag. If you start your prompt with that you are almost guaranteed to get a female character, even if you have specified a male one. If you place the tag further inwards in your prompt, it seems to greatly attenuate that unfortunate effect and it mostly renders as expected.

    Hello, someone has a clue why I'm not taking the same images as shown, even using the exact same parameters? I tried with both ProtogenX58RebuiltScifi_10.ckpt or ProtogenX58RebuiltScifi_10.safetensor. There are another file to copy or configuration to do ? (I'm using WebUI from Automatic111 in windows 10). Thanks

    roxhoffJan 21, 2023

    I'm having the same issue. I thought it was just me because I'm using something other than Automatic1111. I'll enter the same exact prompt and settings and seeds and don't get what everyone else is getting.

    @Pergetoryofdream use the safetensor version, the ckpt are there for anyone needed them, also the website marked it as safe. so its a false positive. (if it was really harmful the entire community would have flag it down days ago)

    robot1meJan 22, 2023· 2 reactions

    Windows Defender also slows down PCs worldwide, while people often claim "third party antivirus is snake oil". While in reality, performance is literally one selling point due to Windows Defender being so bad at it. You can be sure it's a false positive. Even when in doubt, on Windows you can use Sandboxie. No need for VMs.

    Plus as Darkstorm said, safetensors is available too. It's preferable just for the lower RAM usage on loading.

    AlephGatesMay 6, 2023

    safetensors / also virustotal.com for a second perspective

    I tested your model with some anime embeddings, and sadly they mostly generate photo stuff on this model. Do you plan to make a model that is more cartoony/anime focused? (For example UnstableInkDream 5 gave me really great results with anime embeddings)

    Can you give me a hint? I don't fully understand if the "Protogen x5.8" model is related to the "Protogen x5.3"? Is Protogen x5.8 a more complete version of "Protogen x5.3"? Or are they different models that are not related to each other?
