Not Suited For Anything (NSFW) - No VAE

This is the first time I ever tried to create/merge a checkpoint, and I wasn't planning on actually releasing anything.

My plan was simply to play around with merging different checkpoints and try to figure out how it works and how to get some good results.

VERY NSFW

NOTE: You need to use SDXL VAE separately

There has been some CLIP baked in somehow and you don't need to use separate CLIP. However, I don't know if it's my imagination but I feel that I get better result when using dual SDXL CLIP

SDXL clip L

SDXL clip G

If you already have clip G and L for Stable Diffusion 3, they should also work.

Please post your results in the gallery and let me know what you think of the checkpoint!

If it's at least somewhat appreciated, I might continue working on it.

Merging Formula

I actually have no idea. I started with trying to merge Stable Cascade with Flux .1 dev as well as Flux .1 schnell. I can't say that I remember exactly, but I most likely got some error messages when merging those. But almost every time a new checkpoint was created, and I used that new one to merge with one of the Flux checkpoints again and again.

Despite the error messages, the created checkpoints actually worked. And somewhere down the line I started to merge the result with various SDXL checkpoints. I don't remember which because I pretty much just merged with random SDXL checkpoints I had on my computer. Some got merged despite error messages and others didn't, and since I wasn't planning on actually releasing the results I didn't keep track.

So what does this checkpoint do?

Well, it pretty much makes everything and anything NSFW unless you specifically tell it not to in the negative prompt (and even then it keeps creating NSFW stuff). Hence the name - Not Suited For Anything 😁

Aside from the NSFW stuff I find that it's a pretty okay all-around checkpoint that follows the prompts pretty well most of the time.

I have tested maybe 7-10 different SDXL LoRa and the ones I have tested works just fine.

I have tested the checkpoint in all kinds of different steps, samplers and CFG and my opinion is that it performs best around 40 steps. I haven't tried all available samplers but I haven't had any issues with the ones I have tested.

As for CFG, I have tried everything from 2-30 CFG,, and it has all worked, but mostly I prefer a CFG level between 3-9 CFG.

Checkpoint is tested in ComfyUI and Forge.

It runs without issues in Comfy, but when I tried it in forge I kept getting error messages and it wouldn't start at all. After I updated Forge and changed around some settings it eventually started to work. Sorry, I can't say exactly what made it work as I changed a bunch of stuff at the same time.

The settings up here seemed to play a part in making it working though.
