    Update 09/05/24: Uploaded a new version of Boreal-FD.

    This version includes a fix on the latent shift dot issue, while still using the better trainer version that the older model used. This model has less creativity in areas due to its smaller dataset, but it behaves alright at much lower lora strength and does a decent job at flash photography.

    I am not very satisfied with how the v2 lora out came and am going to continue training a better version for it. I had been going back in forth over the past few weeks constantly tweaking training parameters across multiple trainers and datasets. I ended up using a smaller balanced dataset with single word captions on an older commit for the AI-Toolkit while update the late shift error.

    Notes on the older versions below here.

    Work in Progress This is a very early experimental lora for Flux-Dev. It uses the Boring Reality image datasets to work on shifting Flux towards more realistic images.

    Do not expect good image generations from them. They will be replaced by newer versions has better understanding on how to train Flux Models Emerges. The ideal workflow to use with them has not been fully understood yet either.

    Additional Notes These two flux-dev loras are not expected to create very good images. Many results may be overfitted, distorted, and have this slight faded dotted look for lesser known concepts.

    The 1000 step lora is more over-fitted with with distortion and lack of prompt understanding more likely to occur, but it may perform better on things like dynamic posing and skin texture.

    You will want to experiment between the two loras, tweaking the lora strengths between 0.5-2.0 and guidance between 3.0-5.0 along with testing many different seeds.

    As more understanding develops for Flux, better workflows for these current models will come along as well as newer Boreal-FD versions as the training improves.

    Description

    This version is more over fitted than the 400s but it can at times get more interesting images with better posing and skin texture. It is more likely to have disfigured hands and other odd things. It can also ignore prompts at times

    Does it only work with fp16? I can't make it work i ncomfyUi in fp8 model

    WARNING:root:lora key not loaded: transformer.single_transformer_bl etc......

    EDIT: It was actually a problem with my comfy config.

    I believe it should work with fp8. Have you updated ComfyUI to the latest commit?

    I've had the same error with this step1000 lora and my own lora I trained in ostris/ai-toolkit/ (which is also what OP used). It wasn't working with fp8, I loaded fp16, it was working, then I go down to fp8 and it's still working. I don't have the issue pinned down.

    Why you say the results would not be good?? With Xpluplus results are amazing. totally new variants!

    Thank you and keep on :O

    I'm still getting to know Flux and LoRA usage with it, but so far I love how "real" this LoRA can make images look. Flux seems to have a mind of its own, but occasionally it behaves and gives me the boring reality I'm after :D Thanks for training a Flux version!

    How to get rid of that faded dotted look? Upscaler?

    I am not sure of a good way to remove it, but the faded dots are due to a bug on AI-toolkit during the training that just got fixed. When I finish training the next version of the model, the faded dots should be removed for new images.

    @kudzueye thank you

    @kudzueye Any way I can help with training? This lora has always been a favorite of mine, much more natural photos. Would like to add some more modern shots taken on smartphones to reduce prevalence of 90s / early 2000s look. Would you be willing to share the dataset you use so we can collab?

    guy33Aug 16, 2024

    @nyeb5270131 There is another similar Lora at https://civitai.com/models/652699

    @nyeb5270131 I have not sorted out yet a final set what images/captions I want in these datasets. I will push a dataset to huggingface once I think it is ready. In the meantime, you can likely look around flickr for common normal images to train on.

    @nyeb5270131 But I like the 90s/early 2000s look. In fact I want to make Nokia camera pictures.

    This will be huge for "realism". Youre epic!

    Will this work with fp8?

    Looks good. Prompts and settings would be helpful with your generated images. Thanks.

    Also works great on Schnell, just turn down the weight by 0.2 or so

    im using both lora's at 0.25% and for what im trying to do (make realistic party pic's from the 90's) that works perfect <3
