English Version - ComfyUI: IP Adapter Version 2 - Ultimate Workflow with Face-ID, Style Transfer

[@BetatestBanned]

It looks good, but I can't understand why the workflow is so complicated for a simple style transfer with face retention?

[@murphylanga]

Helllo @BetatestBanned, because that's only a small part of what you can do with this workflow. If you watch the new video, you can see how you can put together a workflow yourself from the individual modules and then leave out all the things you don't need. But I almost always use the very large workflow, which means you hardly lose any time because no resources are needed by "switching off" individual tools/groups, but if I want to switch something else on, I can do that easily without switching to another workflow.

awesome new follower here !

Hello new follower, delighted to have you! We were so busy creating a new video today that we didn't have a chance to check the comments. We apologize for that oversight. A warm welcome to you, and many greetings. Barring any unforeseen circumstances, we'll be introducing a new training video tomorrow

@@murphylanga As I'm doing faceswaps, I found that Reactor or more recently Fast Swap does this very well on 'realistic' photos. IP Adapter to copy a style but combining the two is a real challenge without going through Loras training. I hope to achieve this with your workflow and the developments of ComfyUI

@hatuey6326 Lora Training is also an option, but it costs time and computing power. My laptop with an RTX3070 is too weak for SDXL. I did it once, but that was over 30 hours of computing time. For 1.5 it works quite well in 20 minutes. But I no longer use it. You can achieve good results with Face Reactor. But you should improve them with e.g. Ultimate SD Upscaler or highres fix. What you have in mind also works. Small spoiler: I will probably put a video online today that shows how you can transfer parts from the Ultimat workflow into your own or a “starter workflow” provided by me.

Hey dude, you need to fix your video. You spell Adapter as Atapter at the start and also the thumbnail

[@murphylanga]

@BolteDev Oops, embarrassing... Thanks for the tip, I corrected what was possible with KZbin. A completely new version because of an, albeit embarrassing, spelling mistake is too much effort for me.
