How to Install AUTOMATIC1111 + SDXL1.0 - Easy and Fast!

With the launch of SDXL1.0, there's never been a better time to test out Stable Diffusion. Check out this Beginner friendly install guide for Automatic 1111, SD's most popular webUI.

In this video I'll walk you through installing A1111 using git, installing python, show you all the best startup commands and run through all of A1111's settings to get you started.

NOTE: The newest release of A1111 (1.6) has native SDXL Refiner support, so you no longer need to install the extension, you can just skip that part!

Was this VAE problem your describing at 4:40 addressed in CIVITAI's Jul 28, "SD XL 1.0 VAE fix" ? Would post the link to it but I don't want this comment to get autoflagged by YT

Things i learned from your video: you can put CMD in the explorer, and git pull. Thanks.

After trying to install StableDiffusion with automatic1111 from different videos, I have to say, this is the most complete one. THANK YOU <3

[marcusronchi]

THnaks for the Tutorial, very clear and easy. looking foward for more videos from you, maybe explainning how to use the tool more deeply, like imgtoimg tab and so on. thanks man!!

[SDVGUY]

Great tutorial!
I've had A1111 for a good year now, over time it was cluttered with so much junk I was unable to update it with "git pull" as well as many other things I wanted to add and remove. Happy to report the new install is great and running much faster for me, thanks so much! for those who are willing to learn... ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE!

[organtitusaurealialous]

Thanks for the fresh install help. Not sure why but I don't see the "refine faces" option. Was there an update that eliminated that?

[FunMakers]

I have rtx 3070 GPU and trying to create a page for colouring book but it's taking 30 minutes to create one image. Can can I make it fast?
Please help me.

Thanks

Following your tutorial, all I had to do was dl the SDXL files, as I already had everything else. But when web ui is open, and I select the SDXL checkpoint, the processing loads and when it's finished, it switches to SD 1.5. So I can't use SDXL. Any idea why? 🙏

[heitorvelloso]

Obrigado, Deus, finalmente alguém que realmente sabe!!!

[PERDACTOR]

ive been running v1.5, so can I just drop SDXL base and refiner into the program files and use sdxl models

[ManDark_o]

Nice tutorial buddy straight and simple👍

[saltygamer]

I get an error when i try to simply load the SDXL model, i select it and it says error

[JoshCroft]

I am new and your very helpful tutorial worked! I can create cool images. In this tutorial, you briefing mention Civitai - What's the best video to watch to learn how to use what is there?

[ryh]

if you guys are getting an error when running the webui-user batch file saying "runtime error: could not install torch", to fix this look up how to install pytorch manually and follow the video tutorials. Also deleting the venv file in the a1111/stable diffusion file seemed to help too

[borisrusev]

What about the CUDA drivers? Does the installer install those on its own or do I have to download them separately?

[cebuninja]

If SDXL is the checkpoint then how do I use other checkpoints that require SDXL? such as Pony Diffusion

[OscarWolf]

Everything was fine, 10 seconds after launch I got the following error: : Error connection errored out. And nothing works

[jonsantos]

Very good video and got to the point much much faster than other videos. I got A1111, and the SDXL 1.0 installed (and moved this and refiner to the 'Models' folder).

The images i'm seeing are good. However, there is still a lot of issues with the eyes and fingers of the outputs. Like some of them are rather deformed (even after i included this in the Negative prompt box). Am i the only one?

[TheJwwinter]

Is sdxl base image necessary or can i just download jauggernaut from civtai

[River-Kosmos]

Best vide thus far... I keep getting this error... when clicking webui-user batch file. I have python loaded. I downloaded the version but why I inster "py" into the cmd prompt. I am said that I have my anaconda 3.11 version running. Any help with this?
