I'm merely playing with these, so my knowledge on some of the systems is severely outdated, but this tut was *muah* chef's kiss. Just right. Love it when tuts are made right. No fluff, no extra, just step to step and just enough information and tips to get you where you need to go. Don't get me wrong, tuts with super in depth information have their place too, especially when you want to learn. But when you just want to "leisurely walk" tuts like yours are the bread and butter. Nice work, you'd make a great teacher!

Congratulations for the excellent tutorial, very clean, precise and straight to the point! You put together everything we need to know, now I understood perfectly how to do it, thank you very much!

A little bit of stack overflow to find out how easy it is to go from powershell to cmd and i was able to do it, thank you!

[mulfunction]

Dude, I think you need to make a guide for the webui, If you make it a playlist I am sure people will watch it, you are really good at explaining this. I am sure you'll have a good view too

[shaunbrown]

[KelvinKMS]

You are the best !!! It is what I want to know how to install and use controlnet models !!👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[jaysub]

Thanks so much i was trying to install control net for so long but with your video i finally did it .👻

[claudiofeldman]

Thanks, it seems very well explained, and everything seems to work in order when following the process.
(Yes, it would be interesting to see some progress after this installation, there is always something more to learn). Regards

Their Readme was painfull to install, thanks for the video.

[nicksushkevich]

what command should i use to install python on Mac?

[EdvvinWang]

Many thanks for the tutorial. Appreciate. Except everything went well after installation. The models doesn't show up in the controlnet section. But preprocessor has everything tho. I've done restart refresh whatnot. But the models still doesn't show up.

Does anyone has the same problem like I do? Can anyone help? I'm a desperate Mac user haha...

pip install opencv-python
'pip' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.
And this is on windows 10, but i did type cmd in the stable-diffusion-webui folder just the same but for some reason I'm getting this error?

[sonnyl]

thank you it worked! question: got error tried double clicked open the 'webui-user' batch file, but if opened manually as Admins in Prompt Command it worked! So may I ask how do you open the file in a normal way? thx
