    why do all the female faces look the same in this? Its the same face with different hair

    Isn't that a common problem on all Pony and Illustrious checkpoints? You can use one prompt on multiple Pony models and get extremely similar results. I think it has something to do with the way they are trained. Use Lora's if you want more variety.

    Try V4.5 FP16, we have fixed the issue in that version.

    fp16 or bf16? Which one would handle larger prompts?

    Both should do it.

    Not sure what all the different versions mean, but am sad that 4.0 FP16 isn鈥檛 available for onsite generation anymore. I made a few pics with that one a while back I thought were 馃敟.

    I鈥檝e never done it before. How does it work and how much does it cost?

    @AIMon86聽search for the checkpoint and its version , add some buzz to bring it into top 200.
    buzz cost will be visible there, it varies.

    Of all the realistic loras (Pony or Illustrious) I've tried out, this one is the best. 馃憤馃敟

    Great results with v40FP16. v4.5 lost some character knowledge and the contrast can be troublesome.

    The later version does have a high level of authenticity, but it loses the characteristics and features of Illustrious, and the characters and costumes of the anime cannot be reproduced, which is not worth the loss

    StardeafAug 19, 2025

    Yea. It doesn't seem to respond to prompts like Illistrious does. Many if not most so called realistic finetunes behave this way.

    best model EVER!
    but what about hair styles? "bangs" for example doesn't seem to have an effect...

    RaininosiAug 17, 20251 reaction

    try korean bangs, works for me all the time on most models

    I like so much the v3.0 DMD2, at high CFG it follows the prompt pretty well but the output is very bright...
    1 CFG the lighting is good but then it do not follow the prompt very well.. is there any way I can fix it?

    Try LCM Sampler with CFG 2.5 to 3.5 it should work. Increase the steps if required.
