This guide is intended to be as simple as possible, and certain terms will be simplified.

Workflow description :

This workflow allows you to easily test different combinations of lora with different parameters.

Prerequisites :

📂Files :

• An SDXL model : like this one
  in ComfyUI/models/checkpoints/

• As many LoRAs as you like (optional) : like this one
  in ComfyUI/models/loras/

📦Custom Nodes :

• ComfyUI-KJNodes

• ComfyUI-mxToolkit

• ComfyUI Image Saver

• rgthree-comfy

• WAS Node Suite

Don't forget to close the workflow and open it again once the nodes have been installed.

Usage :

In this new version of the workflow everything is organized by color:

• Green is what you want to create, also called prompt,

• Red is what you dont want,

• Blue are the model files used by the workflow,

• Purple is for LoRA.

We will now see how to use each node:

Choose your model:

There are many models available on Civitai. Choose the one that best suits what you want to generate.

Write what you want in the “Positive” node :

Write what you dont want in the “Negative” node :

In each of the 4 LoRA modules, choose the model and the weight desired for each:

Now you're ready to create your image.

Just click on the “Queue” button to start:

You will then have 5 images: One without any LoRA, then one per LoRA module.

Some additional information:

Organization of recordings:

All generated files are stored in comfyui/output/SDXL/YYYY-MM-DD.

Depending on the options chosen you will find:

• "YYYY-MM-DD-HH-MM_XXXXXXXXXX_Original" the basic file,

• "YYYY-MM-DD-HH-MM_XXXXXXXXXX_LoRA1",

• "YYYY-MM-DD-HH-MM_XXXXXXXXXX_LoRA2",

• "YYYY-MM-DD-HH-MM_XXXXXXXXXX_LoRA3",

• "YYYY-MM-DD-HH-MM_XXXXXXXXXX_LoRA4",
