Merge Checkpoints in Stable Diffusion Automatic1111

The quick and easy way to merge Stable Diffusion checkpoints in Automatic1111.
There’s a huge number of amazing fine-tuned custom checkpoints available these days, and each comes with its own particular art style and capabilities but also limitations.
If you want to create more unique images, with combined attributes from several checkpoints, then generating images with a merged checkpoint may be the way to go.
If you’ve trained your OWN checkpoint, you may want to merge it with another, to leverage the influence and strengths of that checkpoint.
I’ll be walking through the steps to merge two checkpoints using my local install of Automatic1111, running on my Windows 11 PC.
So, sit back and follow this Stable Diffusion tutorial to learn how to create unique images by merging checkpoints in Stable Diffusion Automatic1111.
