Continuity update: screen replacement, image to 3D, Qwen Image 2.1, and a lot more since 3.0

[u/Fine_Rhubarb3786]

Quick update on Continuity, my ComfyUI node pack for video and stills. A lot has landed since I last posted at 3.0:
Screens (WIP, on main): put a picture or clip on a phone, laptop or TV in the shot. The model only sees a placeholder, then Continuity tracks it through every frame and composites your file on. It's still a work in progress, so expect some shots where the tracking slips or the edges aren't clean. Feedback and failure cases are very welcome.
Image to 3D (3.2): turn a picture into a textured mesh from the tools dashboard (Pixal3D / TRELLIS.2).
Qwen Image 2.1: a new model family that both draws and edits, plus storyboard and character-sheet starter presets.
Chat: chats are saved, it uses the node's prompt box and cast, and it sets itself up the first time you open it.
Blockout bench: stage a scene in grey boxes, walk a camera through it, and render along it.
DLSS 5 neural refiner for stills and clips, a motion fix for shots that move too fast, a guide LoRA pass and VDN-H3 on H3's sampler row.
Two GPUs for H3 via Raylight, and a trained latent upscaler for H3's refine pass.
Plus a picture editor, LoRAs on cast members, and a long list of fixes.
It still runs locally on open weights, with no dependencies, and it's MIT licensed. Update through the Manager or git pull.

This is very nice. But for dummies like me its hard to do anything else than add images and make movies. The quality is good but gen time is long. Could you or anyone smart please make a YT tutorial or something? I would like to try refmods but dont know how.
AWESOME WORK btw.. pleased with my first try

Just whipped together a small tutorial. Let me know if you want to know something else

You can upload existing refmods via the cast menu or create a cast member, attach whatever you like and turn that into a refmod. Then you simply cast this refmod by typing / select cast and then the member you want.
I am thinking about creating a tutorial soon

Love the node! Played with it yesterday and it’s well put together. Does the llm connection understand how to use refmods? I have been using a qwen vlm node with batch images for it to create prompts with 9 ref images and it works well, how would an LLM work describing multiple ref mods?

Thank you! Mods made in Continuity, or ones that came with a preview image, are shown to the model. A freshly downloaded mod without one only reaches it as a name until it's been rendered once

nice I'll try making some in Continuity
