>>108286164>/caag/ - Crying About Avatarfags general
Forgive me for the dumb noob question. Anima uses the qwen text encoder instead of a CLIP text encoder like SDXL, right? Does that mean I shouldn't think of the booru tags being used like "tokens" like it was in SDXL? There was also a notion that newlines has slight differences with prompts. This is the one thing that confuses me with anime models trying to incorporate NL with booru tags, since NL also likes using commas to describe things, but commas were also how tags were separated.
>>108286214Use a mix of tags and natural language and you'll be fine.
>>108286214>Does that mean I shouldn't think of the booru tags being used like "tokens" like it was in SDXL?What do you mean by that?>There was also a notion that newlines has slight differences with prompts.That's plausible, I don't know though. Might not matter very much.
>>108286214They are still tokenized, but I don't believe they are split up into chunks of 75 tokens at a time (with tokens at the start having each chunk being stronger) like CLIP. Using a BREAK keyword to keep chunks separate from each other and control which tag gets the extra strength of being first in a chunk will not work.
>>108286214They are more sensitive, I use this https://github.com/1lch2/ComfyUI-AnimaPromptFormatter

>>108286544>>108286559go back to sdg you subhuman avatarfaghttps://rentry.org/debo
>>108286570Comfy made the right business move pivoting to API. Local is absolutely stagnant, just one look at CivitAI tells you all you need to know. Localkeks are still genning on SDXL while the rest of the world moves on with Nano Banana 2. It started with Dall-E, and everyone coped that 'local would catch up!', yet here we are 2 years later and not a single local model has as much balanced style/character/celeb knowledge as Dall-E did.
>>108286570API already won based purely on how unaffordable it has become to even do local. Entry level for doing local is now $2k~3k. Most people in their 20's don't have that kind of money to just drop on a hobby when rent is already $2k+.

Any new form of trolling today or is it the same as yesterday and the day before?
>>108286648>yaaay we won't get new cool local models anymorecome on anon, why are you celebrating that, without china we're fucking dead
why hasnt the doomer given up and left this thread if he thinks local is dead
>>108286647it's not doomerism when it's true, the core team that made qwen 3.5 have been fired, why would they do that, they made a great LLM series, people loved it
>>108286665chinese models were never good, they were always garbage and always have been since pixart. the only decent one was WAN and that was because it was trained in an era before synthetic video data existed.

uh oh cloudkek melty
>>108286678and yet western models are even worse
>grabbing random character loras>throwing them against a IL realistic merge>roll lewd prompts on them>enjoyThose where the times
Absolute Comfy API victory. Looking forward to future Qwen releases on the API. Thank you China, your API models help push competitors prices down. It's thanks to SeeDance 2 that Sora 3 prices will be cheaper. With API, we all win
no one here lamenting qwen team stuff even used qwen image btw
We had a good year with ZiT, Klein, WAN, Anima and Qwen releasing some decent stuff. I'm not really interested in new more capable local models, I'd rather see the ones we already have improved. Only thing I actually want is a better edit model, Klein is good but stiff and has severe anatomical errors. With Anima I know we can keep going for a while, and same with Zimage and Klein trying to squeeze every last drop out of them.
>>108286730We're dealing with a bunch of poorfags. Why do you think zit and anima are now the current meta?
>>108286150what's the flow dpo supposed to be doing?
What sort of ComfyUI workflow corresponds best to the inpainting tab in automatic1111?I am getting much worse results with the same modelsRight now I've only added>load checkpoint>load image (add mask manually with the mask editor)>CLIP for positive and negative>k sampler, VAE decode, then save image
I was kinda expecting 5090 to train WAN22 T2V character LoRA a lot faster than my 5070ti but turns out it trains it barely any faster. I think I tried every possible resolution and batch combination and it still took hours.
>>108286730>>108286741they were supposed to release Qwen Image 2.0 (7b) though...
>>108286754Also what does the inpainting fill option>originalcorrespond to in ComfyUI?
>>108286754The 1girl guide in OP seems good
>>108286741ok what is your non-poorfag meta then?
did that many anons get filtered by z base? zit is ass with anything not 1girl while base excells
>>108286759You can tell Qwen 2.0 was actually going to be good because it's not releasing. It's only local until it's good.
>>108286767But it looks exactly like how I do it now.. and just about every other guide showcasing the simple usecaseI want to mask the image, doodle a new part of it, then let inpaint do its job
Alright I'm convinced, API is clearly the future. Where do I start with this API node shit? There are hundreds of them and I don't know where the fuck to begin. Is there a guide on which ones are actually decent?
>>108286800>Alright I'm convinced, API is clearly the future. Where do I start with this API node shit?you won't get answers from a local general lol
>>108286785please your shit is somehow as bad as it was during 1.5 times. zero progress. and you somehow dare to attack other anons all the time while flooding the thread with your ugly slop.
>>108286809he is trolling you can ignore
>>108286800Seedream 4.0 is good, they kind of fumbled with 4.5 and 5.0Nano Banana as well, but it's a waste of credits to experiment with the paid model so practice first with the free oneSeedance 2 is the world's best video model but it can be quite expensive
>>108286809NTA but isn't the "local" name just for the tradition sake? It's effectively ComfyUI general now and Comfy fully embraced SaaS and API, so did most of the users here from what I've seen here lately
Can jannies clean all this low effort trolling up plox
>>108286817can you use seedance 2 from comfy?
>>108286823>NTA but isn't the "local" name just for the tradition sake?it's not, so you better not talk about API too much on a local thread if you don't want to be nuked for "off topic"
>>108286829yeah it's getting annoying. anon keeps blabbing about API and how "everyone" is using it yet there isn't a single image, video or workflow screenshot using someone doing so.it's just plain shitposting.
You know local won bigly when cloudcuck trolls can't stop posting here kek
>>108286833Yes, ComfyAPI supports practically every API model except Midjourney and NovelAI. Nano Banana is also really good with celebs unlike censored local baseshttps://x.com/PinodiArt/status/2028849730743095537

reminder, API nodes like Seedance 2 cost about $2 to run. That's $2 every time you click the button to generate something. The Seedance 2 API will also be more locked down.https://docs.comfy.org/tutorials/partner-nodes/pricing#bytedance
>>108286859Just use NovelAI

>>108286836I'm sorry, but isn't it okay if I run it from comfy? de3 wouldn't be helpful, they only run stuff from web interface. Where should I go if I'm interested in API nodes of ComfyUI?
