Ensure you select the proper VAE for the Checkpoints loaded. I don't use 1.5 any more, so there may be issues with it. When using 1.5 ensure to lower the CFG's to about 4-7, it's not as good at reading.You can actually mix and match 1.5 and XL, or mix 2 xl models, or 2 1.5 models. The Upscale fix has its own checkpoint, vae, lora and promptsThis workflow is used mostly for 16:9 but can do any resolution with the custom latent, just make sure you set all upscale resolutions properly.Default 16:9 resolution latents are in the settings area, you need to drag the pink latent circle to the base image ksampler.Fast upscale is enabled automatically, it's not great, but sometimes works well with high quality bases and is very fast, turn on and off the upscalers in the settings bottom right. You need to have inline upscaling on, the rest help with quality but are slower.If you want to use a model upscale, remove the bypass on the "model upscale" at the bottom of the settingsRecommendations - use the lowest x model that looks good, they progressively get better quality, but much slower, just inline can work but iffy./If upscaling to 4k is not great, add 2-4 steps to the finishing step and use model upscaling. I also change the inline upscale to 1440p (Slower)2x_NMKD-UpgifLiteV2_210k4x_NMKD-UpgifLiteV2_210k4x_NMKD-Siax_200k4x UtraSharp8x NMKD-Superscale_150000_GI use 4x_NMKD-UpgifLiteV2 for the first upscale and a 4x ultrasharp for the 4k upscale, I start 1280x720 mostly.Face restore is tricky and is needed the lower res you start with. Included are 2 points of restore that are default disabled.1st restore point is after the inline upscale, it has less impact on the final result but can help if you're upscaling from lower res.2nd restore is after the samplers are done and has a big impact on the look of the person,With 1280x720 and higher, face restore is not really needed anymore with decent checkpointsXL Checkpoints tested on RealitiesEdgeXL, atxl, copaxmelodiesxl, crystalclearxl, dynavisionxlAllinone, fudukiMix, morphxl, realcartoonxl, rhapsodyxl, sdvn6realxl, xlyamersrealistic -- 1.5 Checkpoints tested on Kmain, realmoon<img src="https://image.civitai.com/xG1nkqKTMzGDvpLrqFT7WA/ba9d37b2-4e7b-431c-a7fe-066845dc1d70/width=525/ba9d37b2-4e7b-431c-a7fe-066845dc1d70.jpeg" />

4x3 Portrait version of my 16x9 workflow. Seems to work just as well.
