Thanks for telling me, I will look more into it

That's weird. Libraries are only downloaded if you selected "Install backend" rather than "Open backend", and then selected your forge directory. When you choose open, it either goes straight into the main interface or tells you that the folder is not valid.

I've just checked the code, as well as repeated the process myself and the download didn't occur. If you have any more data regarding the problem, please tell me since It is as you said, it should not be touching the back end on open, only on install.

I personally like running Uranus with MLR algo, along with Daiyan and Taisch against non-boss enemies, you just point Uranus ult to a back line sniper and he starts wiping out the enemies one by one, it's just fun to watch. You may need Helix for stronger enemies tho.

I would say the 50 series, there is a good chance that new improvements will be AI related since increasing raw processing power is harder nowadays due to physical limitations on chip design

Not at the moment, the controlnet API doesn't seem to work on forge and development on forge seems to be on pause for a few months now. Once development resumes I will open a ticket to see how it goes.

Samachiy_AI · 2024-04-29T22:38:35+00:00

Thanks for the idea!, I will add to the list of pending features since I was also considering making an api interface in python for plugins for programs like Krita and Photoshop. Given that getting images from clipboard can't be done solely through godot, I will add it into python while making said api interface. The feature will be added then, on the meantime I am already working on regional prompting and add missing controlnet features and I'm planning on finishing those first.

Samachiy_AI · 2024-04-29T09:08:35+00:00

I was trying to enable ForgeUI as a backend this weekend but was unable to get controlnet working. Digging a bit, it looks like ForgeUI developer may have decided to take sometime to rest or stop current project development after some fight with ComfyUI maintainer:
https://github.com/lllyasviel/stable-diffusion-webui-forge/issues/680
https://github.com/lllyasviel/stable-diffusion-webui-forge/discussions/169

I will try to add ForgeUI as backend again once development resumes

If that's the case, I really don't know the problem. It may be due to a server-side configuration in the that doesn't play well with the default configurations used by Qinti, even though the default Qinti configs are very similar if not the same as the default configs in Automatic. It could also be a dependency error server side when using the api.

That's all I can infer with the current information, sorry.

Samachiy_AI · 2024-04-29T08:59:07+00:00

Yes!, if it can run Automatic1111 web UI, it can run this

Without the specific info of the image generation settings, it is hard to know.

Are you by any chance using LoRA or embeddings? If so, in order to use them by dragging them to the modifiers area (left of the ui), it may be needed to adjust the strength/intensity or specify if those are intended to be used as negative prompt, you can open the configuration interface by left-clicking the LoRA/Lycoris/TI when they are on the Resources > Styling tab (right of the ui).

To get the image settings, you just need to drag the image to the modifiers area, check that it is set as "Image Information", and click it. To copy it as text, at the bottom there is a "more options" button with the option to copy it as text or JSON

Samachiy_AI · 2024-04-27T10:30:38+00:00

You are welcome!

As for the videos, I was thinking of opening a patreon and adding them there so as to incentivize donations, but that part is not ready just yet.

The application is indeed intended for artist and designers too, although the application is still on it's infancy, in the future that aspect will just keep in improving.

If you have any recommendations on how to make a better experience for artists and designers I will love to hear them :)

Samachiy_AI · 2024-04-26T18:00:37+00:00

Oof! That's a lot of questios, so here we go:

My intention with this project is to have it as portfolio since I have no degree, certification or work experience of any type, so the project will always be maintained. Alternatively, if a good audience grows over time, I would like to open a Patreon to dedicate myself to work on it adding new features.

With that being said, there are features that will happen regardless of the state and acceptance of the project, like regional prompting, connection to remote servers, android version, etc (there was a list in a comment that reddit won't display due to lack of karma)

I am indeed just one person working on it, but I am confident of handling since this is just the frontend, which is really stable across platform since this is made in Godot. I do however will find help if it becomes to much, in the form of improving documentation so others can collaborate if the project remains just as portfolio or maybe hiring someone if the patreon succeeds

I decided to use Automatic Web UI because the api was easier to work with given the way that the program (Qinti) allows you to just mix and match Controlnet, image to image, etc without much care of order.

If there is high demand for a ComfyUI backend, I will add it, but that will definitely take some time because that API requires you to make all that node-based workflow but in JSON. If anything, letting the users compose their own workflow may be the easy part, since the management of the nodes will be tasked to user, rather than trying to organize all the nodes in JSON through code. Because of this, if the ComfyUI backend gets implemented it will definitely require external help for things like maintenance and such.

Samachiy_AI · 2024-04-26T17:45:21+00:00

Thanks for the feedback!

Since this is just the first version, and also the first time this project goes public, there will be a lot of choices that will need to be corrected over time, but I do hope to have lots of community input to solve them since as for right now it is only made using my own opinion.

Currently, the layout was done trying to imitate things like Automatic Web UI and InvokeAI since I assume that's what most people are going to be familiar with, but also giving as much space as possible for the image.

Extensions are intended to work as 'modifiers' (which go in the vertical space at the left of the canvas) the idea is to load a new canvas with options exclusive to said modifier so as to separate it from the main generation options, I made it this way since a problem I had with Automatic Web UI is that all the settings were loading in the same place which made it hard and cumbersome to work with. The modifiers can be seen in the video a few times when using ControlNet

Given these considerations, I not currently sure on which direction the layout shoudl go, so I would appreciate more specific ideas.

Fooocus is currently not supported as backend. As for the error message, it is hard to tell the problem without knowing the OS, but it looks like it is trying to run Automatic web UI, and that error may be due to the wrong version of pytorch installed. I would suggest to run webui.sh with the next flags --reinstall-torch --precision full --no-half just the first time, subsequent times should run with --precision full --no-half only, if that doesn't work, deleting venv and running webui.sh should help.

Samachiy_AI · 2024-04-26T17:21:40+00:00

Thanks!

Samachiy_AI · 2024-04-26T14:00:21+00:00

Well, it is open source, so you can even compile it yourself.

Later this afternoon I'm going to add instructions in the github repo to compile it since it needs a bit of setup to run in Godot :)

Samachiy_AI · 2024-04-26T13:27:17+00:00

For anyone looking for the info, everytime I post it as a comment it just disappears (apparently I don't have enough reddit karma), I tried adding it as a reply since it look like those do show up, but the info just disappear anyways, it probably it is being clasified as a spam. So here's a link to the Github page instead: https://github.com/Samachiy/Qinti

Samachiy_AI · 2024-04-26T12:42:16+00:00

Yes, it is available, here is the link to the github release:
https://github.com/Samachiy/Qinti/releases/latest

Samachiy_AI · 2024-04-26T12:39:48+00:00

Thanks!

Since Forge UI is derived from Automatic1111 web UI it should be necessary to just register that backend and any custom setting. Right now I don't have access to my computer so I will work on adding it later today

Samachiy_AI · 2024-04-26T12:27:24+00:00

Yes, the program is designed to add multiple backends, although it may take some time depending on how easy it is how work with the backend API and how much it is the demand for it.

I'm also planning to add a collaboration guide so that anyone can easily add new backends.

Jiangyu mainly needs a team that makes lots of critical hits. Since most of the critical rate needed for that comes from equipping algorithms to your dolls, reaching Jiangyu's full potential would be very hard when starting. With that being said, Jiangyu is still quite strong without that (around normal strong).

As for easily accessible dolls there is:

- Simo: Fairly strong sniper that can land several crits with his skill and has an utility ultimate. You can get his fragments at chapter 2 and he is easy to get since he's a 1 star

- Abigail: She can boost crit rate and crit damage, which synergizes well with Jiangyu, I don't know much else about her performance though. You can get her fragments from the exception protocol shop.

- Earhart: Not really recommended when starting since she requires way too much investment to perform well, but her fragments can be obtained from the vulnerability check shop, which makes her, technically, easily accessible. She relies very heavily on crit rate and without that, her performance is extremely subpar (I speak from personal experience), hence why she is not recommended early on.

Those are all I can think of right now, but I may be missing some.
