2000s Analog Core

V3 Update:
Enhanced Timestamps

• Improved realism for on-screen display times and date stamps.

1. Face Fixes

   • Reduced the repetition of identical faces across generated frames, enhancing variety.

2. Expanded Dataset

   • Now trained on VHS, VHS-C, and Hi8 footage to broaden the analog aesthetic.

Usage & Tips

• Low-Res VHS Look:

  • Use prompts with phrases like “amateur quality” and “low resolution” to push your render toward that classic, fuzzy VHS vibe.

  • Target ~0.5 megapixels (e.g. 704×704, 608 x 816) if you want reinforce extreme lo-fi aesthetic.

• Higher-Res Hi8 Style:

  • To achieve the “Hi8” look (cleaner but still analog), render at ~1 megapixel (e.g. 896 x 1152 or 1024×1024).

  • You can go up to ~2 megapixels if you want more detail without losing the retro feel.

• Recommended Trigger:

  • The only trigger word you truly need for this model is “v8s”.

  • Avoid mixing too many triggers, as that can introduce confusion and stray from the classic 2000s analog style.
    
    V2 Update:

• Removed digital camera images from the dataset and added more footage from camcorders.

• Fixed the issue where the same woman appeared in all images.

• Tried improving the sexy overlay text on footage, but it only generates well sometimes.

Can’t say I’m fully happy with this version, but it’s not bad. Already planning a new update with more features soon! Also thinking about updating the Mavica LoRA.

This keeps your style while improving clarity and readability. Let me know if you want any tweaks
P.S: but what i really like in this lora, that it's for some reason generate almost always perfect hands

Step back into the early 2000s, where Myspace was king, profile pictures were taken with a digital potato, and everything felt just a little bit off (in the best way). This LoRA captures that lo-fi, analog aesthetic of forgotten VHS tapes and grainy digital cameras (yeah, i mix them in one LoRa). Perfect for those who miss the charm of pixelated edges and questionable lighting choices. No, it won't resurrect your old Myspace profile - sadly - but it will bring back all those nostalgic vibes.
Warning: May cause a sudden urge to listen to emo playlists

P.S.S: only v8s is needed in trigger words, everything else is optional to enhance effect
Usage as usual: dpmpp2m + beta + 40 steps + 2.5-3 guidance
I'm using with UltraReal checkpoint , but works good with default flux.dev too

P.S: sometimes can be some timestamps or other features from vhs tapes (will be fixed in next versions). I just wanted to test some techniques on this LoRa and result is pretty solid for 29 images in dataset.

Also noticed one bug, that female faces often looks similar, will fix in next release. But LoRas wit characters works good and fix this problem
