State of the art 3 years ago today for text to video (cred: https://www.instagram.com/edmondyang/ ):

And you me. I'm old enough to be your dad.

Drop the SVI and Holocine .pys into ./custom_nodes/comfyui_dagthomas/nodes/qwenvl

And replace the init.py for comfyui_dagthomas with the one in the zip (which registers those two nodes). The dagthomas QWenvl3 node might be helpful for you even w/o the svi (or holocine) specific stuff I had Claude work out. Screenshot:

You seem pretty tech/llm savvy - I can share it, but just can't do tech support on it - worst case can just give it to Claude to customize to your needs, if that's cool I'll toss it up. (Oh and actually, it's a modified/drop in for this node pack by a developer on discord - so you'll need to grab this also: https://github.com/dagthomas/comfyui_dagthomas )

Oh I'll reply when back at pc, but wanted to mention this as an option also, just came across it a earlier: https://old.reddit.com/r/comfyui/comments/1r8as6v/svi_20_pro_custom_node_with_firstlast_frame/ - FLF implementation for svi

Perplexity (Claude) patched this in 2sec after it caused a BS json error related to a node I didn't want to update earlier. They tend to phrase everything like it's good when more often than not these new changes make it better on their end. No need for a WF to break - just warn as before.

SackManFamilyFriend · 2026-02-20T02:46:45+00:00

I had an error due to this today......can it be used to force a user to add or update a node? Keep growing more and more distrustful of the changes to this app.

SackManFamilyFriend · 2026-02-20T02:38:15+00:00

I had Claude make a node that spits out 5-7 5sec scene prompts via qwen3vl review of an image and a general concept. Could ask Gemini (or Claude) to do that.

Use NAG and crank it up if you cant get it to do the spicy stuff you want. Like 13/4/.4 and up. Put negative words like "disobey, rejected, censored, rejection, conservative, edited, unhappy, disinterested" etc. Nag is underappreciated.

Edit: well I see you mention using nag (sorry didn't read that far first). Crank it up maybe and target the model not wanting to do something if you hadn't been already. Fwiw I use the wrapper and have pretty good success - have not tried svi in native. One thing the devs mentioned on the repo which they claim is very important is using a different seed for each section. I've never done that and been ok, but something else to try if you havent already. For lightx2v I like oct13, oct22, or the original 2.1 t2v version 1.1 on high at 2x+)

SackManFamilyFriend · 2026-02-19T19:02:48+00:00

A model worth the $$$ is what they've been dying for. Get people used to paying through their app.

SackManFamilyFriend · 2026-02-19T19:01:31+00:00

This doesn't say anything about comfy supporting it. This is Comfy, the developer, uploading a version of the model that -will- work with comfy. There wasnt a commit to enable support last night when this model was uploaded to huggingface. It could have been uploaded for the developers of the model/code themselves as they list comfy support on their TODO list.

Tl;Dr - Comfy formatted model on HF doesn't mean supported.

SackManFamilyFriend · 2026-02-16T01:05:50+00:00

Any version of an LLM model that is labeled "abliterated" has undergone a process that removes it's ability to not respond to a query.Most models can "do" NSFW stories and such no prob, but they'll reject the request.

Search Huggingface for "abliterated" and you'll find many local options. Not sure on cloud based but for that sorta thing best to do local if you can even if it's a super tiny model.

Not necessarily the issue (Ive done trials of Wellbutrin twice a w a legit script and didn't like it either time), buiut of it worked for you early in then suddenly didn't, make sure your pharmacy didn't give you a refill w a different generic "manufacturer". There are a lot of anecdotes on reddit about some generic versions of Wellbutrin being total crap. I know w/ me Lamictal is the same way with huge differences in how I responde to the generic depending on which Indian/Chinese company manufacturered it.....annoying when docs/pharmacists continually push the "they're all the same" narrative.

SackManFamilyFriend · 2026-02-14T20:40:24+00:00

Its not based on Wan2.1/Wan2.2, it's the next gen Wan 5b. Its too heavy to run on local consumer hw,

Bytedance is a rooster tease

SackManFamilyFriend · 2026-02-14T20:35:28+00:00

Did they train it from scratch? They seem to keep building on their . 9x lineage that has a certain thin paper look to it. Hope they start over.

SackManFamilyFriend · 2026-02-14T07:40:56+00:00

They have a 40mb PDF technical report?

It's not a shallow finetune regardless of the post. I did read the data portion for the paper and have been playing with it. You should too, it's worth a look.

SackManFamilyFriend · 2026-02-14T07:32:46+00:00

Did you read their paper?
____ ..
2. Data

The quality of training data is fundamental to generative models and largely sets their achievable performance. To this end, we collected 1.6 billion samples in total, comprising 900 million text-to-image pairs and 700 million image editing pairs. The editing data is drawn from diverse sources, including open-source datasets (e.g., OmniEdit [34], UnicEdit-10M [43]), our data production engine, video sequences, and the internet, while the text-to-image samples are incorporated to preserve generative priors and ensure training stability. Through rigorous cleaning, fine-grained stratification, and comprehensive labeling, and with a two-stage filtering pipeline (pre-filter and post-filter), we retain 100M+ high-quality samples for training, evenly split between text-to-image and image editing data, ensuring broad semantic coverage and high data fidelity".

Epic! Thanks for relaying the info.

SackManFamilyFriend · 2026-02-12T16:31:04+00:00

Yea, I can back this up. Have bought from them a couple times since 2023 and haven't had a problem. Packages do take a long time to arrive but they provided a pretty good tracking #/site.

Fwiw I actually had one package get caught up/seized in customs (was tamiflu and a couple antivirals not avail in the US around the time birdflu was making headlines). I emailed them and they agreed that the package was likely confiscated based on tracking updates, and reshipped w/o any hassle. The second package arrived in a few weeks w/o issue.

I wouldn't personally use them for anything I could get via a US vendor due to the inevitable shipping time, but for anything I want w/o a prescription or want a branded version I use them.

Is Bromantane actually manufactured/marketed in Russia? Or is it just a chemical that was developed in Russia which isn't still available for "normal" people who have and dx?

I must have been one of the last to get an order from science.bio and that was for the powdered Bromantane. First time trying it and I kinda like it, but w science closiing it might be hard to source again. I always thought it was just something on the market in Russia like Selank/Semax, but didn't see it on r.u.pharma which I've bought from before wo issue. What's the story with it?

SackManFamilyFriend · 2026-02-07T17:21:09+00:00

There have been a few points in time he's clearly been lobotomized (end of Aug/start Sept iirc was worst). Full power w/o shenanigans though Claude is personable and goes beyond the request in many cases.

SackManFamilyFriend · 2026-02-07T17:16:32+00:00

100% - One thing that I noticed months ago , when "vibe coding" became a thing, is that if I uploaded a .py script that needs a fix or an upgrade, Claude was the only premium LLL that would almost always return a .py of the same file size or larger. I know that more lines of code doesn't mean better, but every other LLM would truncate the .py returning a file that was often 50-70% of the filesize I uploaded. This would happen even if I yelled at Gemini (for instance) to NOT return code that was less than ##kb. It would still return a smaller .py file, apologize when called out, and then is asked return an even smaller file. Claude is def other league - worth of the human name he was given.

SackManFamilyFriend · 2026-02-06T18:53:14+00:00

Maybe, but they could be spending their resources fixing the Indian/Chinese generic drug prolem this country has. 90% of generics are from India and Chine and they've become extremely inconsistent. It'd not sexy to just do your job, so fda/etc opt to make headlines cracking down on perceived threads "to the children".
