This is honestly the best controlnet tutorial I have found, thanks. The video is detailed but not excessive. I appreciate the comparison images of various settings

[davibfs]

You are amazing at explaining! Thank you for sharing your knowledge, God bless you.

[ChimpZAI]

Thanks for the video. It was easy to follow

[AbsolutelyJason]

Awesome! Thank you so much for the tutorial!

[iceshoqer]

This was actually a pretty good video compared to other YouTubers with hundreds of thousands of followers (and their dumb pointing finger thumbnails) - so thanks for this. More like this, or even indepth would be great, it is really nice to see the example images you give with the options used at each point. Helps understand instantly.

Why is it that the thing you're looking for is always in the last place you look? Because you stop looking. This was the video I needed to get it to 'click' for me. Thank you! 🤘

[yu-gg]

thanks G, best tutorial out there and I watched A lot.

Even tho the loopback option might have a bug, I'd like to have seen the result of using it. Or when this would even be a good option. I've not tried it myself as again, not sure why I'd want to use that. I'd also like to get your opinion on your preferred models for any specific results. Right now I lean toward normal for general image composition and depth to focus on the main subject (not details), usually with inpainting for both as I am doing a lot of subject over existing backgrounds. I've almost totally abandoned open pose unless I'm doing text to image.

Do you knbow if I can move my controller models to a different HD than the one where SD is installed? It takes up a ton of space on my system drive. Thanks

[REUBEUCOP]

When I put my model in control net and when I try to generate the image, I have a error message "TypeError: 'NoneType' object is not iterable. My setup is OpenPOSE and processor Openpose_full, can you help me please

[konradschoeller]

I have been stuck after installation, WHERE to find it in the UI. Then I saw in another video, that the controlNet tab is just below the main tab under "txt2img" waiting to be expanded. This moment isn't shown in the video.

[kaylon]

When I try to generate an image with openpose this appears in the script

(f"ControlNet model is not compatible with sd model({sd_version})")
Exception: ControlNet model control_v11p_sd15_openpose is not compatible with sd model(StableDiffusionVersion

My ControlNet is not working at all. I’m on version 1.1.422 and the Units won’t increase in the settings. Also, when choosing different models on Control Type like canny it won’t load the preprocessed and model automatically. Lastly, img2img is not enabling the “Drop image here” even when I check “Upload independent control image”. I’ve tried deleting it and installing it twice now and nothing has changed.

[Heroickittens]

hi openpose is not working for me. like I have the openpose set up but when i generate my images it doesnt affect it at all.

[MrDev-khbe]

Those models are flagged with pickle, are they still safe to run ?

[ucfqfsy]

What app are you installing the COntrolNet on?

[TheKillingPerfection]

Everytime I click on the explosion thing to show the preview it gives me an error, any tips?

[crossingunwantedpaths]

Hey buddy why did you deleted your video about generating thick women models Insta/OF like images? It had very helpful prompts and generating settings.

[rwarren]

I don't see a control net tab and you switched away to the models rather than show us what the page looks like. I was able to follow along until then. EDIT : At least on windows, it’s not enough to restart A1111, after I rebooted and restarted A1111, it downloaded more stuff and controlnet shows up on interface. AMD RX580 8GB, Ryzen 3600. 16G RAM. (Don’t laugh)😊 following along again
