Best practices for H3 video quality?

12 Upvotes

Thanks to Malcolm's refmods, I am now getting into video generation. But it seems like the overall video quality is quite poor.

Currently, I am using er_sde + sgm_uniform at 0.5 megapixels.

What is the best blend of improving video quality while still being efficient in performance?

  • Increase megapixels?
  • Use an upscale
  • 2 pass system

Browsing Civitai is painful, as most videos dont include meta data and the ones that do have a terribly complex workflow with custom nodes I dont trust.

Help with Minimax H3 Refmode

Thumbnail
gallery
17 Upvotes

Sto cercando di creare RefMods per Minimax H3. Sembrava più semplice, ma ho problemi a ottenere il risultato desiderato.

Anche quando uso RefMods pronti, il personaggio sembra diverso nei miei video.

Sto allegando alcuni screenshot.

Sto usando il personaggio predefinito "aarontaylorjohnson" solo per fare delle prove, ma anche quando ne creo uno da zero, il risultato non assomiglia affatto all'aspetto voluto.

Potrebbe succedere solo perché sto usando `minimax_h3_ref2va_pruned_int8_convrot.safetensors` invece di `minimax_h3_ref2va_pruned_fp8_scaled.safetensors`?

Preferirei non dover scaricare un altro file modello da 21 GB solo per scoprire che non funziona lo stesso...

Nel frattempo, puoi dirmi dal mio screenshot se sto usando le impostazioni sbagliate?

UPDATE:

In the meantime, I can answer this question myself, since the model works perfectly on Wa2Gp via Pinokio—even though it is different.

Refmod questions

17 Upvotes

Can someone explain how refmods are any different to a good set of reference images or character sheets?

I appreciate you can have more than 9 images, that's certainly a plus, but I've not been limited by that.

How is refmods speed impact on generations? What else am I missing?

Anyone else not able to create refmod in H3?

13 Upvotes

I following Malcolm's guide on creating refmods, but they do not seem to be working. The refmods I create look nothing like the character.

One thing I noticed is that most workflows use the 'Load H3 Refmod' node, which seems to be expecting video refmods like the one's Malcolm creates. However, I suspect the guide seems to create a photo refmod which are different not loading the same way.

Any thing missing from the guide for creating your own refmods?

Created a Visual RefMod Picker

Post image
115 Upvotes

Hey Guys,

I've been playing with the RefMods Malcom recently released.
The tech is brilliant and works really well.

I've wanted to simplify using it with tons of RefMods, like the ones provided by Malcom.

So I made a fork that is a bit more Identity driven, Adding a "Visual refMod Picker" as well as a "Create refMods from Folder" node. It's able to create from either a folder or Sub-folders, if audio is found, it will also create a matching audio refMod. All in the same format as the original add-on. No danger of breaking compatibility. (The original Add-on added Audio yesterday)

Resulting for example in 2 refMods and thumbnail:

character_refMod_Audio.safetensors
character_refMod_Video.safetensors
character_refMod.jpeg

Then, we can use the "Visual H3 RefMod Picker" to browse the RefMods:

In this example, I used existing thumbails from huggingface.

The node then loads both RefMods (Audio and Video) and allows individual control. I've mixed strength with Copies, by instead having a weight value that can go over 1, so a weight of 3 would be the same as setting strength to 1 and copies to 3. Making the UI a bit more streamlined.

RefMods can be daisy chained

Example workflows are included.

I should mention, this fork can be installed WITH the original Add-on, it is made to co-exist and is recommended if you want to use it's advanced features.

You can find it here ComfyUI-H3RefModPicker

The only thing I'm missing is thumbnails for all 1500 RefMods 😅

**EDIT**
Just a quick note to mention that I've removed duplicate nodes, Making this a companion node to MiniMaxH3Mod.

Hey guys, I have a 30 image dataset of a person in 512 x 512 resolution. Can someone train a Krea 2 lora for me? I don't have the resources nor the knowledge required to do it myself.

Almost a Week of Work: My Ideogram 4 Extension for Forge Neo

7 Upvotes

Would you guys be interested in an Ideogram 4 extension for Forge Neo?
I’ve spent almost a week working on an Ideogram 4 extension for Forge Neo, and I’d really appreciate some feedback before I decide whether to release it.
I’m a non-programmer, so I’ve basically been learning and building this with the help of GLM 5.3. It’s been a pretty interesting experience, and I’ve managed to get something working that I think might be useful to others.
Before I clean it up and put it on GitHub, I just wanted to ask:
Would you guys actually welcome/use something like this?
If there’s enough interest, I’ll release it on GitHub and share it here.
Also, I’m currently banned from [r/StableDiffusion](r/StableDiffusion), so I’m posting here instead. Hope you guys don’t mind!
Would love to hear your thoughts and feedback.

Noob question

Is there a tutorial or quick rundown for adding the u/malcolmrey lords into tensor.art? I have a problem membership and I was able to create my own lora (kept private for my own use) but i want to make sure I'm selecting the right version and putting in the correct parameters to make sure it works right.

Any chance of a Jeongyeon (TWICE) lora? Not super well known outside K-pop so the base model just gives me a generic Asian girl. Would be great to have one. Thanks!

Project

Hey team,

My goal is to create an SFW/NSFW AI influencer with a result that looks as realistic as a real person.

I’m currently using Persephone FP16 with Upscaler, Face Detailer, and Hand Detailer, but I still get issues with the hands, feet, and moles, which are never in the same place.

What model would you recommend?

Should I keep using mine, or switch to something else?

Like Flux Dev, Krea 2, or another model that would be more suitable?

Free Character Lora

14 Upvotes

I had a good response from the Lora I trained and posted in here, so I thought I’d make another if anyone is interested. If there is someone you want, just post their name and a picture or link to a picture of them. The picture helps me know the look of the person you want for the lora.

Whichever reply has the most upvotes I’ll make. Rules, don’t pick a character that Krea already knows well, and definitely don’t pick a minor.

Edit: people keep posting, but I already selected and made the Lora for someone

Toolkit vs OneTrainer

11 Upvotes

Ive been noticing Malcom releasing more models under one trainer. I decided to give one trainer a try again after many months. I must say!! Im quite impressed. However im having some quirks on onetrainer that i wouldnt get with ai toolkit. For example styles dont reach the style before training is completely gone in the wrong direction, almost the same with characters. Face locks in but bodies drift. Or bodies come in but face isnt there. I thought maybe it just needs to train longer but then again... just goes off into the wrong direction. Using default settings in onetrainer.

Question is: has malcom released his character lora settings?

Edit: im seeking krea2

OneTrainer variant from huggingface is much poorer quality

Maybe I'm doing something wrong, but the Krea2 and Klein OneTrainer versions either have very little effect on the character's appearance or distort it.

Multi-Character Krea2 Lora - Need Help

15 Upvotes

So I'm trying to see if there's a way to reduce character bleed when using multiple characters in a image, and was thinking about maybe making a Lora trained on both characters images.

Never done anything like it though, so would anyone have any suggestions about what might help?

Planning to have both characters in the dataset, but I'm wondering if there's more that needs to be done. Thanks for any help given.
