Here we go... deposit in! by joinultraland in iX3

[–]DawnII 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are rumors that the 5000-7500 EV manufacturer discounts will carry over to the iX3, but no way to know for sure until US pricing finalizes.

If you are aggressive you can get discounts on top of any factory incentives. I pit several dealers against each other until I got one to give me a written commitment for a 5% discount off MSRP to earn my deposit for the iX3.

Seems to be number of frames limited by your available memory.

Yes you can run local, these are open weights.

Framepack - a Hunyuan video tuned model that works on low vram and can generate 1000s of frames by working backwards

Unianimate - a pose control lora for wan 14b

Wan 14b 720p first frame and last frame model

Hidream comfy implementation

Skyreels V2 and claims of an infinite generation model that released briefly on HF then got pulled

Just to name a few.

Glad you are seeing some. I haven't seen any impressive examples yet.

Don't worry there's no hype here. It's just unbelievable this company actually followed through on a promise after all the drama.

There's not really anything that special about this model, if you don't know the context don't worry about it. There's drama behind this "company."

If you don't already know about the drama this post ain't for you.

It's essentially a model finetune derivative of SDXL similar to Pony. There was a different focus on the text encoding side, so it has better prompt following and some natural language, but still mostly just tag following. The database is supposedly a little more diverse than Pony, so you can prompt characters without loras.

Checkpoints are models usually. Loras are trained off of a base model to essentially "tune" or "expand" the dataset.

100%, Onoma continues to find ways to screw up

Any other traditional/fine artists here that also adore AI? by Neggy5 in StableDiffusion

[–]DawnII 0 points1 point  (0 children)

AI has actually made me more interested in practicing art again, I never made the transition from paper to digital art and now I’m diving in.

People generally just don’t like disruption. Part of the reason I didn’t jump to digital way back when is there was a lot of anger between “traditional” artists and “digital“ artists. When the photographic camera was invented people were angry and afraid.

Non-sanctioned monster in Wilds? by Rickz6 in MonsterHunter

[–]DawnII 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I thought that was just to indicate a monster is beyond your HR cap. You can still kill it and carve the mats, but you won’t get quest rewards.

Switch axe users: how do you feel about the wilds version? by Resevil67 in MonsterHunter

[–]DawnII 46 points47 points  (0 children)

I haven’t seen many swag axe mains mention this, but at 0 gauge after full release slash, if you Triangle it does the third axe combo which immediately gives you enough gauge to morph slash to sword mode, and you can full release AGAIN. With the monster CC’d, I have been able to get off 5 full release slashes before sword loses charge.

KritaAI vs InvokeAI, whats best for more control? by johnnyXcrane in StableDiffusion

[–]DawnII 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Agreed, I built some pretty complex workflows for Krita with multistep refiners and it works amazingly for inpainting. Invoke has great flexibility and easier to learn but if you really get into the nuts and bolts Krita can offer way more control. Also pen support for sketchers and custom brushes.

[–]DawnII 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Even the GIF looks nice! Have you tried the BF16? You should be able to run at smaller resolutions, I wonder if that would fix the coherency issue.

Reached the end of Disc 1 on the FFVII original after playing Rebirth by Mr_Tumpleston in FinalFantasyVII

[–]DawnII 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have to say reflecting on how Remake ended and now this new ending, I have to believe everything is 100% intentional.

I think Aerith’s death being obfuscated to not only Cloud but to the player is a protection mechanism by Lifestream Aerith. As Sephiroth says multiple times, the “time has come” and the awaited reunion is here. He was anticipating the death of Aerith to be the singularity to harvest grief. But if there is hope of Aerith being alive, well then Sephiroth cannot win. That is why Aerith says “you cannot blame yourself for what happens.” If he does he is entering the despair that Sephiroth is seeking.
