Z-Image-Turbo-AIO Workflow v2 - Changelog
What changed from v1 to v2
🆕 Major Changes
1. ✅ Correct Settings
Before (v1):
Steps: 8
CFG: 0.0 (incorrect!)
Sampler: Euler A
Scheduler: simple
Now (v2):
2. 🔍 Improved Upscaler
New features:
Denoise control (0.4-0.6 recommended)
Scale_by control (set final size)
Less aggressive detail addition
Better preservation of original image
More natural skin rendering
Why the change: Previous upscaler was too aggressive and changed images too much. New version gives you precise control over how much changes.
3. 📸 Metadata Extension
Added:
comfyui_image_metadata_extension integration
Auto-saves prompt, model, settings to images
Makes CivitAI uploads super easy
Drag & drop - metadata fills automatically
4. 🎯 Better Sampler Options
Added euler_ancestral:
Why both:
res_multistep: Sharp, detailed, best for architecture/objects
euler_ancestral: Natural, smooth, best for people/skin
5. 📐 Resolution Updates
Highlighted:
6. 📥 Download Links Added
Now includes:
Why: Easy access for users to download models or try online first.

🔧 Technical Changes
Settings Corrections:
CFG: 0.0 → 1.0 (CRITICAL FIX!)
Steps: 8 → 9
Sampler: Euler A → res_multistep or euler_ancestral
Scheduler: simple → simple or beta
Upscaler Changes:
Before: Fixed settings, too aggressive
Now: Denoise control + scale_by control
New Dependencies:
Added: comfyui_image_metadata_extension
Reason: Auto-save metadata for easy CivitAI uploads
💡 Why These Changes?
CFG 1.0 (not 0.0):
CFG 0.0 doesn't exist in ComfyUI
Model is trained for CFG 1.0
This was a critical error in v1
Steps 9 (not 8):
Results in exactly 8 DiT forward passes
Optimal for this distilled model
Better quality consistency
Dual Sampler Options:
User feedback: res_multistep sometimes too sharp for skin
euler_ancestral gives more natural results
Both have their uses - user choice
Upscaler Denoise Control:
Previous upscaler changed images too much
Users wanted more control
New system allows fine-tuning
0.4-0.6 range works best
Metadata Extension:
Huge quality-of-life improvement
No manual entry of settings on CivitAI
Drag & drop - done!

🎯 Recommendation
Everyone should update to v2!
Critical fixes:
Quality-of-life improvements:
Metadata auto-save
Download links
Online testing option
Better documentation
📥 Migration Guide
From v1 to v2:
Download new workflow v2
Install comfyui_image_metadata_extension
Update your model if needed
Check settings:
CFG should be 1.0
Steps should be 9
Try both samplers
Enjoy improved results!
v1 Issues Fixed:
❌ CFG 0.0 → ✅ CFG 1.0
❌ Limited sampler → ✅ Dual options
❌ Aggressive upscaler → ✅ Controlled upscaler
❌ Manual metadata → ✅ Auto metadata
v2 = Better quality + Better workflow + Better user experience
Update recommended for all users! 🚀
