[@Mocorn]

One really clever thing about the Inpainting feature they have here is the fact that it scales up and then down again depending on your needs. This means that you can zoom in, inpaint something quite detailed and then go back out. I haven't seen that before and when playing around with it I've been able to make some pretty insanely detailed pieces.

[@sebastiankamph]

Very cool indeed!

[@cofiddle]

Really have my eye in this. Already amazing. The potential is insane. Thanks for making this tutorial. Also, their install is crazy simple. They're really doing a great job

[@superbaiart1956]

Best feature in my opinion is the ability to draw directly on the canvas. I don’t like to go back and forward to my drawing software when I want to do some quick img2img based on a sketch.

[@ethan-fel]

Krita has a perfect extension for this from interpause (extension for A1111). It create the transparency mask automatically. You can easily combine a lot of image that way, keeping the best part. It's so strange to me that even quite proficient artist doesn't use it.

[@zachanas4670]

It definitely LOOKS friendlier, but looks are just one small thing. Personally I use prompt matrixes, grids and S/R in Auto1111 very frequently and I don't see an option for that here. Plus extensions like Wildcards. The moment it reaches the features Auto1111 provides, while keeping the sleek UI, then for sure I'mma trying it out.

[@sebastiankamph]

I don't think it ever will. Their goal is user experience and stability, so auto1111 will always be the front runner for features when comparing those two.

[@JamesDooley82]

I started using this the other day, and I can say it makes generating images a lot easier than automatic's. The biggest thing being the unified canvas. With automatic's interface outpainting is just too cumbersome, having to enable and disable scripts and adjust sizes and settings every time. The unified canvas is amazing and just allows you to outpaint, inpaint or image to image automatically based on what is selected. Feature wise invoke is lacking a bit, but I think given a bit of time they will add a lot more features. I think automatic's interface is a lot better if you want more fine tune control with scripts. If automatic's interface got something like the unified canvas I would probably switch back, but as things are now I have only been using invoke.

[@MrPlasmo]

A1111 is gonna have some big competition here. Good to have many options. Can't believe this is all free, but for some reason, I can easily see InvokeAI start to charge for their services. Great tutorial and intro to this thanks.

[@nahiyanalamgir7056]

They only charge for cloud computation. Charging for an offline app makes no sense these days.

[@Beetlebomb3D]

Ayyy! It's here! Good to see it, Sebastian!

[@Theexplorographer]

Masking an edge before outpainting it will get you better results. This works in Invoke as well as PaintHua outpainting.

[@sebastiankamph]

Great tip!

[@dialecticalmonist3405]

"Masking" means "telling it where the edge is"?

[@HikaruXavier]

@@dialecticalmonist3405 Its not so much telling it where the edge is but more of a "don't touch these pixels". Masking can be done anywhere in the image not just the edges.

[@zyxyuv1650]

The biggest problem with Auto1111 is that Gradio won't allow you to use an eraser tool on your mask while inpainting, so you have to get everything right on the first brush stroke. Gradio doesn't allow extending the functionality, so we're basically stuck with unusable inpainting on Auto1111.

[@MichaelFlynn0]

Just wondering: you twice say a 'write' token is needed, the installer, though, asks for a 'read' token. Can you elaborate on why 'write' should be chosen?

[@DDCRExposed]

I was excited to try out this new GUI then I saw the whole "don't use this if you have GTX 1650 1660" card. I have a GTX 1660 Super and no wonder why I need to have " --precision full --no-half" in the the .bat file to stop the black square problem.

[@ScorgeRudess]

This is awesome, but I don't think automatic1111's UI is completely useless, it's just not pretty, but it's not a problem either, or a "deal breaker". Stability wise, 1111 it is strong stable as long as you know and understand your equipment capabilities. Great video btw! Good Job! this is awesome content!

[@SaintMatthieuSimard]

I still prefer A1111, but InvokeAI1111 would be the best of all worlds! It's unfortunate that 2.0 comes with controversial censorship around the fact some people are cringely horrified by the fact that humans have bodies, healthy bodies, and that they can't even differentiate between someone alive or someone dead in their filters, which makes your mom and dad and what did so you're alive... Equal to Ted Bundy and Jeffrey Damer Which is so exaggerated. What's perturbing is that some people probably prefers violence... To sane human relations, and would censor the latter before the first. Some people are so cringe that they'd censor renaissance art because it displays not so taboo body parts.

[@sher1x165]

nsfw censorship is disgusting!

[@SaintMatthieuSimard]

@@sher1x165 It depends on the category, that's why NSFW should be separated in two different categories so gruesome materials doesn't mix with simple lack of clothes which isn't shameful nor a taboo.

[@nanow1990]

For me NovelAi was more slower with text2img. They also don’t seem to have newest sampling methods. I am looking forward to their development process because I like their UI better than AUTO1111

[@nanow1990]

Also it crashes very often

[@MrPablosek]

Great tool. I might switch simply because the outpainting is much more superior to the experimental one in A1111. You can't even choose how exactly you want to outpaint in A1111, only up down left and right lol.

[@3oxisprimus848]

Thanks Brother for your guidance! I REALLY appreciate your jokes

[@amj2048]

Thanks for sharing and wow that outpainting tool is really cool, InvokeAI is worth it just for that alone.

[@sebastiankamph]

Yep, so many users will ignore feature rich alternatives if the user experience is superior.

[@Adamsmasher_Bot]

It’s not a killer, it actually creates less detailed images.

[@gearjammin8551]

Thank you so much for all your hard work making these videos. I'm a bit of a noob when it comes to 3D modeling. I'm just curious if stable diffusion can be used to make my 3D models look more realistic, especially around the eyes. I'm not too interested in changing the scenery or the models all that much, but rather, just make them look a little more realistic. I just wanted to know if this is the right program for this? Or, should I start somewhere else first? I'll mainly be focusing on 3D animations and I think I can do that with the use of Krita along with stable diffusion. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Will work great for stills at least

I think it's great so far. My only problem is with performance, compared to auto1111 it seems to run so slow and often crashes often for me. I'm running on a 3070, would definitely use Invoke more if it didn't crash so much! Hopefully the performance will be improved with updates.

[@rathodmukendra8924]

May be it's not using your GPU,that can happen its running on only cpu...if some script not support for ur GPU

[@smashino]

I haven't had it crash at all and I'm using the same card. Try reinstalling it maybe. Hope you get it to run properly, it's a lot of fun!

[@rathodmukendra8924]

Truth is I am not able to run invoke ai on nvidia 3060 ti after installation without any error ..its just crash and closing with red ,yellow,green text promts... I am trying to apply all solutions since 6 day's and now I am tired.

[@LouisGedo]

I have 3 Stable Diffusion forks installed on my computer......... AUTOMATIC1111, Stable Diffusion UI, and InvokeAI. . The interesting thing is that even when I use the same prompt, try my best to apply the same settings, use the same model...........the outputs from these SD forks are typically quite different looking in style comparatively.

[@KillFrenzy96]

They are not using the exact same configuration. They way they weight your prompt's words is often especially different. The sampler, resolution, steps, cfg scale, clip skip, and many other settings makes a difference too.

[@DJVARAO]

This tool has an amazing UI, but adding more models is not as easy as in A1111. I hope they fix that soon, because the canvas is the best so far that I have seen.

[@LouisGedo]

11:18 It does save all your images by default! On my computer it's at: C/Users/Louis Gedo/InvokeAI-SRC In there, it breaks it up into several outputs folders.

[@sebastiankamph]

You're right. A dev told me this afterwards, I had misunderstood it, the outpainting needs to be saved manually. All generations are saved automatically.

[@MysteriousAya]

I like how in depth I can get with Automatic1111, but I do feel it could use a lot of UI cleaning and some UX improvements to streamline the process.

[@sebastiankamph]

Yes, let's hope this spurs a change in auto1111.

[@SaintMatthieuSimard]

What would be amazing prompt-wise would be the ability to add #ignored text# markers so we could disable parts of the prompts only temporarily, or even having an infinite checkbox array with textboxes where different types of prompts could be inserted... EX: an elephant on a beach ball could become... [x]An elephant with broken ivory tusks and a tutus [O]On a blue, white, yellow and red beach ball made of plastic [O] In a circus with agitated crowd

I haven't tried it myself yet but on the screen it says you need a"read" token, not a "write" one. Though I guess write will also give you read access.

I wonder if it is possible to use a low res image, stretch it really large, and inpaint it inside InvokeAI? I'll try this right away!

[@matTmin45fr]

Got stuck for a bit at the installation process, had to deactivate my Antivirus (Kaspersky) to be able to install it properly. Also, don't mess up the HuggingFace token since it remember your token (in cache), if you did, just empty your Windows Cache (in Windows properties of your harddrive) and start over.

It'll be amazing as soon as we Mac users get a working installer - I tried I think 8 times, wouldn't work... But so promising!

[@Eric_Armstrong]

Really, that's no good! I have it running on an M1 Max - it was surprisingly easy in my case. All I did was drag the installer file into the terminal window and hit enter. Takes a while to instal everything, but was easy. Much, much easier than trying to instal A1111 on a Mac - I gave up with that!

[@mekanikmusik]

@@Eric_Armstrong Yeah I dunno what the problem is - maybe that my HD is called Macintosh HD and has an empty space in the name? Looks like Python won't install for some reason.

[@Eric_Armstrong]

@@mekanikmusik Not sure that empty spaces are going to make any difference ... but it might! I installed mine directly from the desktop. Python could be the problem - I know there can be issues with A1111 if you have old instals of Python already on your system. Not sure, but I think this installer looks to see what version you have and updates it as necessary. Have you been in touch with the developers? They might be able to help. Good luck with it! It's actually not bad and one of the few versions that can be installed locally on Macs. I'm looking forward to getting a walkthrough for installing custom models - I've tried but haven't been able to get them to work ... yet! Apparently, that's on their "to-do" list! 😄

[@mekanikmusik]

@@Eric_Armstrong I'd probably just re-format my Mac Studio's HD if I didn't have over 300 audio plug-ins I have to install after that - a lot of them iLok etc. protected. Would take me like 9 days to do all over again... If I had the money I'd just get an M1 Mac Mini for Invoke and SD work. =D

No negative prompt? I'm a bit of a newbie, but I thought that was a fundamental part of SD. 🤔 So that's just an auto1111 thing?

[@Adrian-mu8gg]

i was hoping this tool will include the feature like auto11111 allowing me to train AI with embeddings and images.

[@econundrum1977]

Given this a try the installer is nice and the UI looks nice but at the moment I'll continue to use AUTOMATIC1111 it's implementation of negative prompts is much better and that alone is reason enough to use it. But I actually like the UI layout more too though maybe in part that's because I'm used to it.

[@HanSolocambo]

What about an equivalent of the highres Fix in Automatic1111 ? Problem (huge) was that it is available only during the processing of new images, but not at all available for img2img or inpainting... :/ I moved to InvokeAI hoping that this would work. But now there doesn't seem to be any option for anything bigger than 512x512. Any idea on that please ? ... And while I'm at it ;) What about negative prompts ? That's super useful too...

[@bmorg7244]

Invoke AI produces images 2-3 times faster than Automatic 1111 on my machine (Ryzen 5 3600x with 8gb 3070ti), but I miss all the extra features of 1111. Invoke's outpainting definately seems better to me, so for now until i figure out the slowdown, or upgrade my gpu, I've been rendering in 1111 and then dragging it into Unified Canvas to outpaint when needed. Not a perfect solution but its been working so far.

[@WilliamHaist]

Damn you had me in the first half, but i got a 1650 ti in my laptop and i cant swap it out. Feelsbadman.

[@morizanova]

use this one with old4GB GTX 860 in laptop and running just fine and seem more memory efficient than Automatic1111 because I`m still can doing browsing and something else beside generate images. Something I hardly can do with Automatic ones . The output seems have more contrast and vibrant color although using default low scale(7.5) . In Automatic 1111 i need to push CFG scale to get same color contrast and vibrance The installation process cost you around 13- 15GB without any models . Using custom models is possible with editing model YAML texts and with pointing the model path into your Automatic1111 model directories

[@teambeeq9433]

Great video, and the UI looks very great indeed, despite it's still missing "everything" that Automatic1111 UI has

FYI: If you run the installbat and keep getting the message: Python was not found...download from Microsoft...or disable from Settings > Manage App Execution Aliases To find this go to Start and type "Manage App Execution Aliases" hit enter, and turn off Pythonexe & Python3exe Verify by going into Start > CMD and type: python --version (returns current version, e.g: Python 3.11.1) pip --version (returns current version, e.g: pip 22.3.1 from C:\...)

[@flyingdogsoft]

Seems to be still in heavy development and installation could be much easier. Also Outpainting does not seem to be very good (first impression). But as a WebUI replacement it would be great and this looks promising.

[@sebastiankamph]

Yes, surely it's not as far as some competitors. But what they have at this stage is very promising. I've spoken to the devs and their plan going forward feels solid to me.

[@kgsz]

I don't think it will fully replace Automatic1111 -- InvokeAI is more streamline, easiest to use and has cracking outpaining out of the box (also available in a few ways in a1111), but a1111 has unsurpassed flexibility and allows for tinkering where InvokeAI does not -- like setting up upscaler: I personally find SwinIR better than ESRGAN, and this choice is not available here (even worse than that, upscaling via running img2img with SD Upscale script seems to be far superior to the generic Upscale option that also seems to be in use here). Inpainting/outpaining here is a killer feature though. I'll probably be running both and using IAI for only that.
