Thank you Olivio for everything you do. Everything you do we can do at home for free. You don't promote websites that we have to pay to use an API. You also don't hide anything behind a patreon only paywall... Thank you so much!

[@roygalaxy5254]

Amazing guide! Thank you!

[@gustavdreadcam80]

It's totally impressive how you've build the workflow to get the best quality with this addon. I really like the switch you've implemented. I think this is a really interesting new technology and with everything build into ComfyUI it's ready to use, everything customizable of course. Great video about great advancements.

[@Avenger222]

pip installing without being in an environment could cause a lot of issues down the line. I would always recommend only doing a pip install while you're in your comfyui environment to prevent these potential issues from happening.

[@JamBassMusic]

I ran into the same issue with missing nodes even after installation. Manually replacing the modules fixed it for me! Saved me hours of troubleshooting

[@shaunbass444]

How did you do this? When i go to add node I can´t find the missing ones I need.

[@mixxfish]

I know it is a lot of work making these videos. I would love to see one on how to get the efficiency node to work and get rid of all the red boxes. I have painstakingly followed some of your vids to only get red boxes and even after update I can not get them working. Thanks

Had the same error and many comments on this video observe this. After research I found a place where it was suggested to simply search for the nodes in the UI/in the workflow and delete the red ones. A reload (double click on the UI and search for the respective nodes) does the trick. I watched Olivios video in detail where he shows/explains the nodes which were red in my UI and just reloaded/inserted them freshly and deleted the old. This worked for me! No need to search for the nodes in the manager or even manually install them!

[@adampease5771]

Hey this video is not working for many people. Also installing in the base environment breaks previous installs of comfy. Could you please address some of the issues in discord and maybe use virtual environments for future videos like this?

[@NeoKhult]

I have tested the template and it works perfectly. The contribution is appreciated. It would be great if you could make a 2.0 version of this workflow adding the possibility of including Lora's and, in addition to the CN DWPose, the HED to optimize the videos.

[@alexmehler6765]

can this be used somehow to just render keyframes or in other words the same character in different poses ? i dont need fluid animation, just wanna render keyframes of selfmade openpose keyframes (exported from blender openpose rig). Or does the model rely on previous frames which are close to the new frame ? ?

[@user-ms3po2yb6u]

When downloading the missing nodes with the manager and then refreshing, it says that the [ComfyUI-3D] node types are missing. Is there a pack that has all of these nodes? This happened when i reinstalled my comfyUI since it was giving me problems last time

I have TAESD method on in manager, preview enabled in the node, but still no preview shown.

[@ShadowangelZero]

Is there any way to use lcm lora with this plugin? It is very demanding ad it can be really slow if someone does not have a really powerful gpu. With a 3070ti it will take ~1 minute or more per frame, and even reducing the amout of steps there is no big gain in time

A1111 development is currently at a snails pace. There just isn't enough new info to justify more A1111 tuts. All of the new techniques are easier to apply to comfy and that's why it's where the action is.

[@sd5853]

Hi, thanks for everything, where can i find the pose image ?

[@wikidude]

By the way, the AnimateAnyone-Evolved node breaks your environment if you don't have the exact GPU series as the creator. I would say use chiaojie's nodes instead, or wait for somebody to change the requirements file and remove the extras

[@elowine]

Hey thanks for the warning, guess I stay away from this don't want to ruin all the work I put into my environment (again) What are chiaojie's nodes? I get no results on Google :D

[@wikidude]

@@elowine My bad, it's chaojie/ComfyUI-Moore-AnimateAnyone but these won't work either. You can install them, but without xformers and a correct sdpa implementation in their sampler, it will require 54GB of vram for a 512x768 on AMD.

[@IntiArtDesigns]

Wish i had known that before completely breaking my ComfyUI trying to install this via this tutorial.

[@INVICTUSSOLIS]

The file that goes into the clip vision folder when downloaded is a zip file which when unzipped is a folder. Is this normal or does this have something to do with me using a mac?

[@KetaFPV]

Also when installing multiple custom nodes, you can use the checkboxes on the left hand side, left of the ID column, once you have selected all the nodes you want, hit install on one of them and all of them will install, saving you time having to do it one by one and waiting for it to finish before starting the next install.

[@muc2810]

Is it only for comfyui on windows machines with an Nvidea? can't get it running on my apple silicon

[@DogFiles]

Wondering if anyone could help me with some info. I use midjourney now, but I would like to do it locally on my own computer. I know we're in the process of this getting better, but I'm mostly interested in consistent characters and video motion added to the images. I'm guessing I use stable diffusion. But do I use ComfyUI? What is A1111? It's all a bit confusing.

[@BlackCat_Deerhurst]

So A1111 is where you want to start, then when you get the hang of that, move to Comfy if needed.
