Just wanted to post the current settings I am using for using the wonderful new LORA created by ByteDance which enables sd 1.5 checkpoints to make quality images in 8 steps which unlike LCM retains cfg for negative prompting.

I've made 2 versions, one which has a bit more than the one posted by ByteDance and a semi-advanced version with upscale and FreeU.
My versions are setup for PicX_real but should work just fine with other realistic checkpoints

For the "advanced" version there are multiple places where you can change stuff... (I dont know if you can disable widgets somehow?) so here's where you set stuff:
Seed: SamplerCustom
Height/Width: CR SD1.5 Aspect Ratio
Batch size: pipeLoader
Things that you can tweak is:
TCD Model Sampling Discrete: ETA
FreeU_V2: All the settings
SamplerCustom: CFG
Use the keybindings 1,2,3,4,5 to move your view around.
Enjoy :)
You can find the "original" (most barebone) workflows here:
