Searge-SDXL: EVOLVED v4.3.2

Version 4.x is here.

I made a convenient install script that can install the extension and workflow, the python dependencies, and it also offer the option to download the required models.

Please read the install instructions in the readme file for more information about the install script and how to use it.

Description

Some custom nodes for ComfyUI and an easy to use SDXL 1.0 workflow. A detailed description can be found on the project repository site, here: Github Link

Installing

Detailed install instruction can be found here: Link to the readme file on Github

Usage Notes

The workflow is in the workflow folder, please load it from the JSON files to make sure you are using the latest versions of it.

The images in the examples folder have workflows embedded.

How to use this workflow

Here is an amazing Youtube video that Nerdy Rodent made about version 3.4 of the workflow. Many things have changed in v4.0 but the basics still apply. And while you are watching it, don't forget to subscribe to the channel.
