reForge development has ceased (for now).

[Panchovix]

Hi there guys, hope you all are going good!

Lately, I have been busy with real life, work and some health issues, while also not having much time to tinker with reForge, that's why updated have been really slow.

So since I can't keep with the updates, new models, and knowledge to maintain the repository, I have decided to cease the development.

I think I'm doing more harmful lately with some changes that I did last time vs improving, while also still, after so much time, not having added new models.

For now, if you want a more OG Forge experience, you can use use Forge Classic https://github.com/Haoming02/sd-webui-forge-classic which implements a lot of changes and improvements.

Also, you can keep using normal Forge https://github.com/lllyasviel/stable-diffusion-webui-forge. To be honest, I haven't check it lately but it supports more models and probably is more optimized.

EDIT: I want to add, that if I manage to get a better IRL life balance in the future, I will add some things. That's why the repo won't be archived. It's just I don't know when this could happen.

Thanks you all for everything, and everyone that has helped me as well in this, I really appreciate it!

[Soulreaver90]

I am so disheartened but I understand and wish you all the best.

[humanistical]

Thank you for all your excellent work! I hope your personal situation improves soon.

[ali0une]

Thank you for your contribution.
Take care @Panchovix

[flyingyakan]

Thank you for your work.
I will continue to use reforge.

[Haoming02]

Yo, thanks for the shout out; also, wish you all the best!

For regular users, note that Classic aims to be lightweight rather than feature-rich, so you may find many built-in Extensions missing!

[Soulreaver90]

Yeah I was going to use classic but saw it was missing checkpoint merger, the only thing axed that I actually do use. I am using the full version and it works just fine for me.

[angelMachin]

Thank you for your work and hope you recover soon.

[ArnorWing]

Thanks for you work, remember I said I'll give you $100 if you ever fix CN :)
I understand real life is demanding, good luck with everything and hope you can continue one day.
I love Reforge for SDXL and I don't need any other models added.
I can use Comfy for the few times I experiment with Flux.

[Crousere]

Thanks for the hard work. Get well soon!

[fish0x0zero]

Thank you for your wonderful work! Health should always be your priority!

[RJSprod]

Ahh, thanks for running this project. I hope someone forks from here. Reforge has worked for me the best of all webui.

[Paharven-Salin]

Just to add my gratitude for your excellent work - ReForge is my go to for image generation and has been for a long time.

I wish you good health and happiness, a little wealth too, why not! Get well and enjoy yourself.

[Reaper176]

For anyone looking for an alternative I suggest Swarm-ui thru stability matrix. Its quick, powerfull and, easy.

God bless for all your hard work.

[aoleg]

@Panchovix , thank you for all the work you have done. reForge at this stage is a fast, stable, SDXL-oriented tool that beats competition with its wide choice of samplers (personally, I use CFG++ samplers exclusively now, a feature that is simply not available with many other tools), RAUNet for single-pass hi-res generation, and several other extensions you've built for reForge.

Having said that, I don't think reForge needs support for other models. Keeping it SDXL-oriented, but making it the fastest and most versatile tool is what I am looking for. Wait... you've done it already!

Thank you, and good luck with your current endeavours.

[ArnorWing]

I tried the RAUnet ext. Very similar results to Koyhas. It had a conflict with Dynamic Lora Weights ext and it would crash during hires fix. So it's not really usable for me.
do you use this together?
What resolutions are you using? I use 1152x2048 generally.

[aoleg]

The following parameters work for me.

Sampler: a few samplers with Dy and CFG++ in their name work, including Euler Dy CFG++, Euler SMEA Dy CFG++, and DPM++ 2M Dy CFG++. Exactly one of these, not 'a' or 'SDE' versions. Also non-CFG++ versions of those, e.g. Euler Dy, Euler SMEA Dy and so on (again, no 'a' and no 'SDE' versions). So mostly deterministic Dy samplers work.

Scheduler: BETA or AYS or SGMUniform.

Steps: 50. Any less than that, and the model starts struggling. However, these steps will be very fast until the moment the model reaches full resolution.

CFG: 1.5 to 2.5 for Euler Dy CFG++, 0.7 to 1.5 for DPM++ 2M Dy CFG++, or normal values for non-CFG++ samplers.

Resolution: 1856x1280, single-pass generation. Alternatively, 2048x1536, but artefacts are more likely at this resolution, using Euler SMEA Dy CFG++ helps some. If you want a different resolution, use multiples of 64 for each side, or it may crash. 1152x2048 should be OK.

Hires fix: only very modest upscale might work at this point simply due to hitting VRAM limit. But it still works if you need it (e.g. you can try 1536x1024 and upscale 1.5x, should work fine). Use the same sampler/scheduler, or combine Euler Dy CFG++ and and DPM++ 2M Dy CFG++ (either one for main gen, another one for upscale); it's very model dependent, some models are too smooth and some too sharp at these settings.

Setting: either default RAUNet or Advanced RAUNet with stop time at 0.6. You can toy with self-attention settings, e.g. setting it to start at 0.35 and stop at 0.4, which helps put some details back in place sometimes.

Extensions: ADetailer works (no need to enable RAUNet in ADetailer's list of permitted extensions), FreeU, SAG, Skimmed CFG, APG is your CFG work, as well as many other extensions. I don't use Dynamic Lora Weights, so cannot comment on that, but I know that some extensions are not compatible. I usually keep APG, SAG, and FreeU enabled.

I don't think reForge needs support for other models
Keeping it SDXL-oriented, but making it the fastest and most versatile tool is what I am looking for.

I agree, the only other model i want to at least be usable is AuraFlow.

[AmeMizuki]

Can I ask what's difference between CFG++ and other normal samplar?

[bigmantingzz]

Yes, it is part of hidiffusion. It is significantly more advanced and generally better than Kohya hires fix as it can stretch much more than Kohya.

im sorry for the necro. How did u go about installing Hidiffusion? Tried it and it doesnt show up anywhere

[noise2014]

when you come back please add wan 1.3 model support for t2v . v2v . i2v its so worth it then all other stuff.

[ArnorWing]

Not possible.

[lFitzl]

Thank you very much for all your dedication and time invested. It has been interesting to see all that you have been able to do.

I hope your health improves and you do very well in life, thank you!

[daPhie79]

Take care of yourself and thank you for all you did up until now, I've been using your build without wanting to go to any other fork ever since you started it!

[BBird6]

Thank you for all your work and support you have provided!
I really hope that you will get better soon, take care!

[AmeMizuki]

Thank you for your work. I enjoy it since last year. It is very good and fast generation than any WebUI. Take care about your life and health.

[PacificFeng]

Thank you for your hard work all along. Reforge is the best WEBUI tool I have ever used, which greatly improves the generation speed while maintaining ease of use and high compatibility. I cannot find anything that can surpass it. Wishing you continued success in all your endeavors, and more importantly, good health and joyful moments.

[Masterjp123]

Thanks for this amazing project, honestly I might just stick it out until either someone picks up the reigns of reforge or you resume development, since honestly Reforge is the best UI and even if it isn't being actively developed or maintained I'm still going to use it.

[Paharven-Salin]

YEP! This is me too, it just works right.

[ShadowAimai]

You do what you need to do. I am sure someone will step up. Thanks for all your effort.

[As4shi]

Thanks for all your hard work!
Hope you get things sorted, regardless if you end up coming back to this project or not.

I started using reForge when the original forge was simply unusable, from random issues to the awful interface changes that were made to accomodate Flux, loras causing OOM and so on.
Tbh idk how the current reForge is, mine is a few months old at least, but it is more than good enough for SDXL models and that is all I could ask for, so once again, thank you.

[slann303]

Thank you very much for your contribution. I wish you all the best and hope, that your health will improve soon!

[Wujidadi]

Thank you.

[ViZAlice]

Thanks for all your effort. I like reForge very much.

[LastStardaughter]

Thank you. reForge has worked excellently for me!

[Panchovix]

Hello guys, hoping you are fine.

I have, for now, decided to retake reForge a little, first trying to upstream the changes of the last months up to upstream.

Then, I will try, without promises to be fair, add some features.

This probably will take a while, and maybe pushing the changes mostly to the dev branch. Just don't get too hopeful as I have to refresh a bit my coding.

Thanks!

[ShadowAimai]

Don't exert yourself. Still good to know you are doing well, I hope.

[bigmantingzz]

my goat, hope youre doing better after the break and dont strain yourself too much

[Paharven-Salin]

Yay! Even just seeing an announcement is nice :) Hope you are doing well and with enough sleep!

[AmeMizuki]

Keep it slow. We are totally appreciate that the king is back!!
