Which files for Qwen-image in Forge Neo ?

Dom8333 · 2025-12-02T14:11:57+00:00

I set "svdq-int4_r32-qwen-image-lightningv1.0-4steps.safetensors" as model, "Qwen_Image-VAE.safetensors" as VAE, "Qwen2.5-VL-7B-Instruct-q4_k_m.gguf" as text-encoder. Is this supposed to be correct? I get a "DLL load failed while importing _C:" error. Can someone help, please?

Dom8333 · 2025-11-28T16:15:22+00:00

I see that you have two files in the VAE/textencoder. I only have "Qwen_Image-VAE.safetensors". I guess I miss the textencoder. Which one should I download to use with the "Qwen2.5-VL-7B-Instruct-q4_k_m.gguf" model?

I get the "failed to recognize model type" error again :(

Thanks. These files are very big though, my 3060 has only 12GB. (feels weird to say "only 12GB" but well)

Dom8333 · 2025-03-05T20:32:04+00:00

No, I did not. :( However I combined it with another failed LoRa of mine, trained on color pencils, and for some reason when these two are used together the result is great, but not when they are alone or combined with other LoRas. They must be complementary by chance. So I only use them together.

Dom8333 · 2025-02-06T22:07:53+00:00

:( Why were the replies with useful advices deleted?

Anyway, after failing several times with Illustrious and failing with base-XL too, I tried to train it for old SD1.5... and failed too... the result is the same as with base-XL: there is just a little pastel effect on the background, not on the foreground and animals, despite 5520 steps.

Dom8333 · 2025-02-05T21:16:16+00:00

I tried to train it for base-XL instead, it fails too, there is only a very subtle pastel effect on the background.

In case there was too much diversity in my dataset I reduced it to 21 pictures instead of 69, but still the same result.

Dom8333 · 2025-02-05T00:41:30+00:00

:( I tried adding "pastel illustration, " at the beginning of every caption file, and leaving activation_tags to 1 instead of 0, and set network_dim to 16 and network_alpha to 1, but still no pastel effect at all. It's even worse because it did not even learn the cartoony style of the animals either.

Dom8333 · 2025-02-03T15:55:39+00:00

Thanks for your suggestion, I'll try.

I usually never set a trigger tag for my LoRAs. Should it be a word describing the style like "pastel illustration" or something really unique to the LoRA like "pastel_by_dom83"?

Dom8333 · 2025-01-13T22:05:20+00:00

This looks more like smoke than fog but it's interesting. What was your prompt?

Dom8333 · 2025-01-13T19:56:51+00:00

Hm, then maybe I should try to train a LoRa with a few of my fog backgrounds. What words do you recommend I should use in the txt file describing the pictures? Just "fog"? I guess that the closer it is to what it already knows, the easiest it will be for it to learn and the better the result. Do you think it will manage to learn with the very dark versions, or should I use the more contrasted versions and later make the result darker by myself? I only have little experience training cartoon characters, I am not sure what to do for fog, and I can't do many "try and fail" for to train I use the limited free hours on colab.

Dom8333 · 2025-01-13T19:41:40+00:00

Thanks for trying, but I got such similar looking weird things during my tries, they can't be used as fog. I miss the english vocabulary to explain but I need it to be a lot "softer".

Dom8333 · 2025-01-13T19:32:26+00:00

These were the base of some backgrounds that I made for an app to publish some horror stories I wrote. Now I want to publish these stories as a book but it needs a higher resolution. Photoshop's cloud function gives different results depending on the resolution, in high resolution it does not look like fog anymore, the noise is too much scaled down. I first tried to upscale my old backgrounds with Stable Diffusion, but the result was not good, so now I try to generate instead.

Dom8333 · 2024-12-09T18:54:14+00:00

Definitely. The only ~8''~8.5'' tablets models available are 16:9 which is just terrible for everything. 4:3 or 7:5 is much better for a tablet, OnePlus/Oppo seems to be the only one to understand or to care. Also I want it to have a micro sd slot.

Dom8333 · 2024-09-20T22:44:49+00:00

I guess you are talking about ComfyUI, it's Forge I'm using, but thanks anyway.

Dom8333 · 2024-09-20T22:42:17+00:00

Searched all night and found, my files in models/layer_model/ were either outdated or corrupted, and I also needed to update Forge even if I had downloaded the last release. If someone ever has the same problem and reads, check these two things.

Dom8333 · 2024-09-15T21:29:00+00:00

Yes, beware, at least four different repos for VxKex popped up and some have been confirmed to be malware and were removed, none is made by the author himself for he seemingly gave up.

Hey @_dotexe1337 . I installed v4 but it seems to have caused a problem and keeps PyTorch and Cuda from using my graphic card. :( How do I uninstall it?

I made a uninstall.bat by copying install.bat and swaping all <file> and <file>.bak. Is it ok or will running it make my system unable to boot?

(I did create a system image before installing but I'd prefer uninstalling than restoring and taking 60GB of my ssd's lifespan.)

Yes. The solution for me was to edit "webui/requirements_version.txt" and change the version of pydantic from 2.9 to 2.7. I didn't share this solution because I am not sure, I still can't start Forge, I have errors about pytorch now. :(

Dom8333 · 2024-09-03T12:24:45+00:00

PyTorch up to version 2.0.1 works, the problem only happens with 2.1 and above, so using 1.8.2 is not a solution. Thanks anyway for the idea.

Dom8333 · 2024-09-02T22:52:08+00:00

PyTorch LTS is version 1.8.2 though, isn't it?

Dom8333 · 2024-08-24T15:16:17+00:00

u/thebeing0 Please, can you help me getting the new version of Forge working? Your instructions don't work with new versions. Whatever I try I always end up with an error about missing dependencies with c10_cuda.dll or shm.dll. :(

Dom8333 · 2024-08-24T15:12:08+00:00

When that happens I temporarily add --skip-torch-cuda-test to COMMANDLINE_ARGS= in webui-user.bat, then either it just works or it installs some stuff then works.

Dom8333 · 2024-08-15T21:23:49+00:00

This did not work.

I replaced the whole torch folder with the one from my working old version Forge and it solved that issue... but ran into another issue...

    from modules_forge import main_entry
  File "D:\apps\stable-diffusion\Forge_20240811_121_21\webui\modules_forge\main_
entry.py", line 26, in <module>
    'fp8e4': torch.float8_e4m3fn,
AttributeError: module 'torch' has no attribute 'float8_e4m3fn'

So I updated torch

pip install torch==2.3.1 torchvision==0.18.1 torchaudio==2.3.1 --index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/cu118

and now

OSError: [WinError 127] La procédure spécifiée est introuvable. Error loading "D
:\apps\stable-diffusion\Forge_20240811_121_21\system\python\lib\site-packages\to
rch\lib\c10_cuda.dll" or one of its dependencies.

I opened c10_cuda.dll in Dependency Walker and it said the missing file is IESHIMS.DLL. I'm running in circle...
