Illustrious ???? from HaDeS v1.0.12

Illustrious ???? from HaDeS is an Illustrious merge focused on responsive, obedient prompting for adult/glamour use. It carries a wide ???? range typical of merges and favors quick, consistent outputs with short and large prompts. As a merge, it can occasionally produce artifacts, but it compensates with broad sampler compatibility and speed.

This release is also an artistic protest regarding recent ???? policy shifts: respectful to community rules while defending responsible adult expression.

What it’s good at

• Anime aesthetics (faces, hair, eyes, stylized shading)
• Prompt obedience with concise prompts respecting danbooru tags
• Speed even at decent resolutions
• Sampler breadth: works cleanly with ~80% of samplers

Trade-offs

• Being a merge, it may show occasional artifacts (edge halos, minor ??????? quirks, double lines)

Performance notes (real hardware)

• RTX 3060 12 GB (past setup): ~18 steps with DPM++ 2M SDE Karras was very quick for 1× images.
• RTX 5090 32 GB (current): ~<3.5 s per image at 1152×1536; with a simple hires pass, ~<15 s to a clean high-quality result.(Times vary by UI, VAE, upscaler, and settings.)

Recommended settings

• Resolutions: 1024×1024, 1152×1536 (vertical), 1216×832 (landscape)
• Sampler (best starters): DPM++ 2M SDE Karras, Euler A, DPM++ 2M SDE, UniPC (Doesn't work with 3M)
• Steps: 18–30 (sweet spot ~18 for speed)
• CFG: 4–8 (Best results at 5)
• VAE: Baked
• Hi-res fix: 1,5x, 2x, 4x depending on your hardware
• Clip skip: 2

Tip: If you see line jitter/ghosting, drop CFG by ~0.5 or switch to Euler/ Euler A.
