First I would like to thank anashel, She has made a wonderful RPG model and I cannot thank her enough, please give her some feedback on her model, it would make me happy to see model creators get prompt Image feedback on works they spent countless hours on, she also has a hugging space
Also made things more simple by removing numbers and switched to names related to the Genre, Protogen will now be sliced into genre that make sense!

I would prefer everything in one, but if each protogen model means focusing in-depth and delivering more fidelity to the subject, I think it is a good decision that was made.
Hey, just wondering if there a reason you don't just use the version system they have in place on civit? I feel like it's a lot better to keep things in one place.
My guess is because each version is not technically an update/better version they are reach different?
I have a trained face (model A) and I want to put it inside the protogen (model B). What value in the multiplier should I put? Taking into account that I want the best quality of the protogen but keeping the affections of the trained face. Tks
try 5%, also when merging, put Model B first then Model A next, so that Model B is the primary data
I'll take a look thanks
You can also play with Merge Block Weighted
I've had some success with
A) Target Model (Protogen)
B) Trained Model
C) Base Model you Trained On (Maybe also protogen in this case)
Set to Add Difference, multiplier to 1
Add difference does A + (B-C), so this should in theory extract the face data (B) from the base training model (C) and just add the face data to the protogen model (A). It does mess with model A a bit, so you can play around with the weigh setting it less than 1, so like .9 or .75, so long as you still keep the face but get more of the original flexibility of the protogen model.
Could you make the .ckpt version available?
I will upload one
They are on hugging face usually as well and pruned versions which is super helpful for me as I have low vram (thankyou for adding those).
@cirosblack my time has been a bit busy, here is a link to the models you requested in the meantime

can you make a version of all your models but lose the bullshit Seek and Dreamlike portions, those licenses suck big time
I don't think that any of these licenses can be or would be ever enforced.
Anyway, you can merge it with whatever you want.
I don't think the author realizes that he himself is in breach of several clauses of the Dreamlike license.
@lujayne
Really? Nobody bothers to read it, which parts of the license he violated?
For starters, he needs to state the exact and full name of the Dreamlike model he used and link to its model card, which he definitely hasn't done in any of the mixes he posts. Dreamlike also prohibits fine-tuning or inference based on their models unless consent has been given, which definitely has not been shown nor claimed anywhere.
It is certainly true that it's practically un-enforceable especially with home users, but there are people like you and I who would like to do the right thing. We can certainly achieve similar results without having to violate licenses and I certainly think this author can do better if only he cared.
@lujayne
Should we report him to the Dreamlike secret police or something?!
@alexds9 I'm sure they're aware and a lot of people make loud noises about their license. Protogen is fairly popular. They probably just think it's counterproductive to be making a scene right now.
