Checkpoints

Checkpoints are located in the "checkpoints" folder, under the files tab

VAE

WD 1.5 uses the same VAE as WD 1.4, which can be found here https://huggingface.co/hakurei/waifu-diffusion-v1-4/blob/main/vae/kl-f8-anime2.ckpt

Aesthetic Embeddings

I've included a "wdgoodprompt" and "wdbadprompt" embedding in the embeddings folder to help make generation easier. With in progress models, its common to have to use long prompts for good results. Using these embeddings helps alleviate some of that.

Generation

With Waifu Diffusion 1.5, best results are generated from generating at a resolution of somewhere between 500 and 1000 and then using 2x latent upscale hiresfix

Here are some prompting examples: https://cafeai.notion.site/WD-1-5-Beta-Examples-d9417e2f1f064437996b581f361e7ef3
