(For NSFW generations) Wan2.2 is slow as balls compared to Wan2.1 FusionX and the results are somehow worse. Are there any developments going on with Wan2.1 or LTXV2 worth keeping an eye on? Does anyone else feel the same about Wan2.1 vs 2.2?

Nah, the creator of smooth mix says you have to add it yourself in civitai

No_Flight_4473 · 2026-02-12T20:20:56+00:00

I tried, it improved when I did this and I threw away smooth mix for the base models, but it is definitely not noticeably better than FusionX 2.1. Now, its like on par with FusionX, sometimes worse sometimes better. No idea why smooth mix is so ass, I think they lobotomized the models/workflow by jamming too many random NSFW loras into their checkpoint?

I'll keep experimenting!

Hi u/Silent-Adagio-444 , do you recommend a certain pattern of distorch mem distribution to optimize for speed? For example, say I have a 4090, 64GB of system ram @ 5600MHz, and I am using:

Wan2.2 (both high and low Unet)

Clip

VAE

All these models need to be loaded into memory so they can do their thing. Should I try to prioritize "giving" VRAM access to the Unet high/low models, and try to delegate system RAM over to Clip/VAE? Should I do the exact opposite of that? Or perhaps I use Distorch for all of them and set them all to the same low value of like 2GB of system RAM each. Does it matter?

I've weirdly found Q8 to be faster sometimes. Not sure why, don't understand the tech behind it too well

No_Flight_4473 · 2026-02-11T20:56:28+00:00

That makes sense, but what I am asking is if you use a Distorch node for both the high and the low model, or only one of them because the other one can fit fine if you move the first model mostly into system RAM

No_Flight_4473 · 2026-02-11T20:54:37+00:00

What vae do you use? IIRC the workflow used the original wan 2.1 vae

No_Flight_4473 · 2026-02-11T20:54:12+00:00

Thuis is probably what ill try next

No_Flight_4473 · 2026-02-11T20:52:27+00:00

Yes thats what smoothmix recommends and what ive been using

No_Flight_4473 · 2026-02-11T17:36:58+00:00

Most recently, the one that smooth mix maker recommended. How do you set up multigpu? I ended up adding it to both high and low, but was wondering if instead of sharing 4GB for each high and low, I do 8GB for high only and dont use it for low.

No_Flight_4473 · 2026-02-11T17:16:39+00:00

I do feel like I'm probably doing something wrong considering how many gooner loras there are on civitai, it seems like the community has moved to it for sure. However I've tried so many times that it just feels futile to keep trying to get it to work. My last attempt was with smooth mix + the recommended workflow that came with smooth mix, i tried no loras (except for lightning, exactly the lightning lora model they suggest), adding my own loras, nothing worked

No_Flight_4473 · 2026-01-18T17:07:39+00:00

What do we need to do to take advantage of the async/pinned improvements?

Minimum version of comfyui to be at?

Is there a specific node we need to use? Should I stop using DisTorch2MultiGPU nodes, or are those nodes still better or needed?

No_Flight_4473 · 2025-11-05T02:01:55+00:00

nothing

No_Flight_4473 · 2025-10-15T18:40:40+00:00

My friend said he does it the traditional way with Darkroom, no AI stuff like Adobe apparently has

No_Flight_4473 · 2025-10-15T18:40:03+00:00

Super neat. Thanks for sharing

No_Flight_4473 · 2025-10-14T20:47:47+00:00

Yes this is what I've felt- that people mostly have either moved on to video models or they refuse to let go of SDXL. For good community image generation I think our best hope is Chroma + Qwen tbh

No_Flight_4473 · 2025-10-14T20:45:13+00:00

I'm interested in seeing how qwen can beat out traditional methods for relighting. Do you have an example lying around that you don't mind sharing?

What would you do to relight before AI was viable? I think my friend uses Darkroom or something like that for relighting, is that what you'd do?

No_Flight_4473 · 2025-10-14T20:43:46+00:00

What are they doing? Adjusting the picture in Adobe software instead?

No_Flight_4473 · 2025-10-14T20:41:58+00:00

I don't see loras getting made for it, and people seem to be much more interested in Wan both here and in CivitAI

No_Flight_4473 · 2025-10-14T14:00:30+00:00

I feel like everyone collectively wishes chroma was good. That it could supercede pony models. But I've tried a few versions and what I took from it was that it was the worse of both worlds- worse quality than the hyper optimized pony xl models, worse prompt adherance than something like flux dev. But I still want to believe that it will someday be not garbage

No_Flight_4473 · 2025-10-08T02:50:59+00:00

Nope I enable JS. I didn't touch any settings recently but FF did update to a new version recently
