AlamoMix

Just a personal merge I did in my free time using various checkpoints. Decided to publish it here since it's better to let people test further. But why called AlamoMix? It's because Alamo was part of my first online username I've ever adopted since 2016 (Alamo985).

Negative embeddings are required to generate best results. Put those at the beginning of your negative prompts like this:

[your negative embeddings], [whatever your negative prompts goes here]

Here's what I'm using:

bad-picture-chill-75v, (BadDream, (UnrealisticDream:1.5)),

Tested settings, but feel free to experiment with other options, or just use my setting in the attached image. I used Forge UI, in which resulting images will be slightly different:

• Sampling: Euler_Max is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. Get Advanced Euler samplers here. Euler Ancestral can be used as a substitute if you don't have Advanced Euler samplers installed. DPM-based samplers are decent, although face quality will be suffered.

• Steps: 30

• Hires.fix:

  • Upscaler: R-ESRGAN 4x+

  • Steps: 18

  • Denoising: 0.4

  • Upscale: 1.5 - 2

• Clip Skip: 2

• VAE: vae-ft-mse-840000-ema-pruned or kl-f8-anime2

• CFG: 6

Additional notes:

• ADetailer is recommended for improved faces. Set inpainting value to 0.3 to avoid repetitive faces.

• Use Envy's Better Hands LoCON from here for better hands, although Euler_Max should handle just fine.
