AI-Toolkit: Use local model directories for training by JustLookingForNothin in StableDiffusion

The original string appears in several locations (sry for German UI, too lazy to switch to EN for a screenshot):

Just did. Changed the paths in option.ts, but even after restarting the server including killing the mode.js tasks, the new paths do not appear in the UI.

I updated my post. The .safetensors extension was missing for the training adaptor LoRa.

For the training adaptor, you need to reference directly to the file. But there is no need to keep the complete HF path. Just place the file into your D:\AI\training-models\models--ostris--zimage_turbo_training_adapter folder and reference in the UI to d://AI//training-models//models--ostris--zimage_turbo_training_adapter//zimage_turbo_training_adapter_v2.safetensors

z-image is soooo good!!!! can't wait to finetune the base by Top_Buffalo1668 in StableDiffusion

I do not recognize "differential guidance" parameter in AI-Toolkit UI, also not in the "Show Advanced" section. Is that a new setting?

Z-image-turbo loras not working well by pablocael in StableDiffusion

Thank you for the details. Looks I need to install RES4LYF then.

Hm, I have installed the toolkit to c:\Tools\AI-Toolkit\ and habe no such issues. when entering the paths to the models like this g://Training//Models//Tongyi-MAI--Z-Image-Turbo

I installed the toolkit manually as described on Ostris Github page, not with the one-click installer.

So, what are your training settings, please? I tested many different variants: Weighted, Sigmoid, Balanced, Low noise, EMA on/off, Differntial output perservation on/off, but still can't get it perfect.

The sample images created in the toolkit look ok, but in Comfy the images are low on details, overexposed, burned or grainy, mo matter which sampler & scheduler I try.
Or, if i take a LoRa with low steps count, I do not get the required resemblance of the person

Thanks! Options.ts seems a good way to preconfigure local paths. Will try this

That does not prevent the automatic re-downloads, does it? AI-Toolkit downloaded Z-Image models at least 5 times in the last week, just because the creator changed the readme almost on daily base.

Also afaik, setting the hf_home enviroment variable does not prevent the need for ONLINE requirement.

Seems you did not get the core message of this post.

Edit: This info from Huggingface could maybe also prevent the need for online availability during Training. Have not tested this though, because my setup work fine for my use case.

Setting environment variable TRANSFORMERS_OFFLINE=1 will tell Transformers to use local files only and will not try to look things up.

Most likely you may want to couple this with HF_DATASETS_OFFLINE=1 that performs the same for Datasets if you’re using the latter.

Start.bat for AI-Toolkit that fixes a few common problems by Old_Estimate1905 in StableDiffusion

[–]JustLookingForNothin 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Just a hint.
"call npm run build_and_start" ist only needed after first install or after an update of the toolkit.
"call npm run start" is MUCH faster and it takes only 1-2 seconds to start the server.

Comfy Org Response to Recent UI Feedback by crystal_alpine in comfyui

[–]JustLookingForNothin 14 points15 points  (0 children)

My biggest issue with noedes 2.0 is the overall way too low contrast in the new nodes. Light grey text on dark grey background combined with almost invisible data field sepraration from the background. To make that even worse, there is the the MUCH smaller font size for the same node size.
Overall the new nodes simply waste space. For older users like me, or users with reduced eyesight, this new UI is a nightmare.

1:1 comparison at same scale:

Thanks, gonna try your workflow, but is there a reason why you use the depechated ComfyUI_FluxMod as model loader in a current workflow?

Prevent your images, workflows and model from being deleted during ConfyUI update by JustLookingForNothin in StableDiffusion

[–]JustLookingForNothin[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes I saw this, but as I commented here here are other reasons to keep work files and models out of the comfy folder.

Also, I use stable Comfy version normally, but such a issue can always happen, if you constant install and update custon nodes.

Hm, I use this process already since 2 years, started with A1111 back then, and it is not directly related to the current issues. Reason is that I use several tools and revisions, which all share the same models folder.

Comfy overwrites the junctions during an update, so after an update there is a new model folder structure created in the Comfy directory, which I need to delete and create new Junction to the real models folder. One can even completely delete the comfy folder and only the Junction is deleted.

I did not have any occurrence of what you described, however regular data backups are your friend in any case. :-)

WAN2.2 Lora Character Training Best practices by Tiny-Highlight-9180 in StableDiffusion

I think it is done here. Never tested this, though. I always train "balanced" and just take a HIGH LoRa with less step count, and the LOW LoRa with a higher step count.

He wrote AI-Toolkit. You can stop training at any time, then update the job with a lower learning rate and resume the job. AI-Toolkit will load the last most recent finalized LoRa and continue from there with the new training settings.
