  • 00:00:00 Greetings everyone. Today, I am going to show  you state-of-the-art local image generation. It  

  • 00:00:07 is really hard to follow the latest developments  in image generation. Moreover, there are so many  

  • 00:00:15 different information, workflows, instructions,  but today I will show you literally one click  

  • 00:00:23 to install and generate the very best images  strategy. I am going to show you the latest  

  • 00:00:30 state-of-the-art image generation models with  presets. When I say preset, it is really,  

  • 00:00:37 really a preset. You won't be spending any  time to figure out how to make it work. I  

  • 00:00:44 will show you how to generate amazing images for  realism and also for stylization with SwarmUI.

  • 00:00:50 SwarmUI is so much easier to use  compared to ComfyUI. However,  

  • 00:00:57 it is still leveraging all the optimizations  and features of the ComfyUI. Therefore,  

  • 00:01:04 currently SwarmUI is the best interface, best  application that we can use to generate images.  

  • 00:01:12 And you will be surprised that how easy  it is to install and set up. I will show  

  • 00:01:18 everything. So whether you are an expert  or whether you don't know anything about  

  • 00:01:23 tech and how to install these stuff,  this tutorial will show you everything.

  • 00:01:28 As you can see, these images are amazing  quality. Obtaining this quality was not  

  • 00:01:34 easy. I had to do a lot of research. However,  I have found the best preset for this. With  

  • 00:01:41 my presets and one-click installers, you will  be able to generate these images right away.  

  • 00:01:47 It will be so, so easy. Moreover,  generating this quality images is  

  • 00:01:54 not requiring a very high-end GPU. All of  these images are locally generated in my  

  • 00:01:59 Windows computer with SwarmUI. I mean, look  at the realism. This is an ultimate realism  

  • 00:02:05 that we got locally on our Windows PC. So  this tutorial will show you everything.

  • 00:02:11 If you are aiming for realism or stylization,  after watching this tutorial, you will be able  

  • 00:02:16 to generate both of them locally with so much  easiness that you will be also surprised. So  

  • 00:02:22 how it will work exactly? Let's make a quick  demonstration. So this is the SwarmUI interface.  

  • 00:02:28 I will do Quick Tools, Reset Params to Default,  and I will do this, direct apply. Then I will type  

  • 00:02:35 my prompt, whatever the prompt you want, and hit  generate. Then this will generate the base image,  

  • 00:02:42 not upscaled image. Moreover, currently  it is generating 1 to 1 ratio. Let's say  

  • 00:02:48 I want different ratio, for example, 16  to 9. I did set it and hit generate. The  

  • 00:02:55 second one is queued. So after this one is  finished, it will generate the second image.

  • 00:03:00 And you can see live the preview. So this is the  image being generated. Therefore, if you don't  

  • 00:03:07 like the image, you can just click this X icon  and cancel it. But let's just wait and see. Okay,  

  • 00:03:12 this is the first image. If I like this image,  next step, I will be upscaling it. Let's see the  

  • 00:03:18 second image as well. And as a third image,  let's generate a realistic one. For example,  

  • 00:03:24 this is the prompt I have. I am using Wan 2.2  model right now for generating these images.  

  • 00:03:31 Wan 2.2 is normally a video generation model.  However, we have figured out a way, a preset,  

  • 00:03:40 to generate amazing quality images with  Wan 2.2. Okay, this is the second generated  

  • 00:03:46 image. Let's see the third one and then  let's upscale one of them. So you see,  

  • 00:03:51 this is so easy with my presets. You will get this  interface, these presets. You will just apply and  

  • 00:03:58 generate. And this is the third image. Let's say I  liked this image. So I will say Reuse Parameters,  

  • 00:04:05 then in the presets, we have image upscale.  You see upscale images, direct apply, and  

  • 00:04:13 generate. Now it will upscale this image into 4x  resolution. The width and height will be double,  

  • 00:04:21 so it will be 4x. And we have so many amazing  presets. You see? After you followed this  

  • 00:04:28 tutorial, you will have all these presets and  you will be able to use any of them as you wish.

  • 00:04:33 Now it is generating the base image, then  it will upscale it and it will add a huge  

  • 00:04:38 amount of details. You will be shocked by it.  And one of the best part of SwarmUI is that it  

  • 00:04:44 is using ComfyUI as a backend. Therefore,  it will do automatically block swapping,  

  • 00:04:51 CPU offloading, VAE tiling. So it will do all  the optimizations according to your hardware,  

  • 00:04:57 like your RAM amount, like your VRAM  amount, like your GPU model. It will  

  • 00:05:02 be all automatically done. 4x image upscaling  will take four times compared to generating  

  • 00:05:09 base image because basically, we are  generating four times more pixels.

  • 00:05:14 Upscale completed and let's look at the details.  I mean, look at this realism, these details.  

  • 00:05:20 This image is just amazing. When we compare to  the base image, this was the image resolution,  

  • 00:05:27 the quality, the details, and this is the new  image. You may notice that the image changed  

  • 00:05:33 slightly more than what we expect. We can prevent  it. You can reduce the refiner control percentage,  

  • 00:05:40 which will be automatically enabled in here. So  if you make this lesser, like 50 percentage, it  

  • 00:05:46 will change image lesser degree. It is up to you.  So based on your needs, you can reduce this and  

  • 00:05:53 it will make it more like the base image, maybe  a little bit lesser degree of adding new details.

  • 00:06:01 So how easy and how to install SwarmUI, these  presets, ComfyUI backend? So easy. First of all,  

  • 00:06:10 we are going to install ComfyUI. You will  find this link in the description of the  

  • 00:06:15 video and also in the comment section of the  video. Always download the latest zip file.  

  • 00:06:21 And as you scroll down, you will see the  change logs. You can read them to learn,  

  • 00:06:26 but one thing is important, you need  to follow Windows requirements tutorial  

  • 00:06:32 before starting installation. This is one  time mandatory and after that you will be  

  • 00:06:37 able to run all the AI applications without  following this again. This is just one time.

  • 00:06:43 First, I will show a fresh installation. So I  will install it into my Q drive and right click  

  • 00:06:49 and extract all like this. Make sure that  your folder name doesn't have any special  

  • 00:06:55 characters or any space characters. All I need  to do is just Windows install or update ComfyUI  

  • 00:07:01 and run. And then according to your Python  version, select it. I still recommend Python  

  • 00:07:07 3.10.11. So I will choose the option 1, but we  support all these. My installer will install  

  • 00:07:14 it with SAGE attention, FlashAttention, Triton,  xFormers. Everything is pre-compiled. Moreover,  

  • 00:07:21 it will automatically install ComfyUI  Manager, ComfyUI IPAdapter, ComfyUI GGUF,  

  • 00:07:27 and Res4LYF. Furthermore, if you need Reactor or  Impact Pack extensions, you can just run their bat  

  • 00:07:37 files after installation has been completed,  but you don't need it for this tutorial.

  • 00:07:42 So what if you need to update your existing  ComfyUI? But be careful that you had to have  

  • 00:07:48 installed my ComfyUI, not other installations.  Enter inside your previous ComfyUI folder,  

  • 00:07:55 paste the zip file, make sure to quit from  your running application if you have any,  

  • 00:08:02 then right click and extract  all. I am using WinRAR,  

  • 00:08:05 you can use anything. Overwrite all the  files that are updated. Then double click  

  • 00:08:10 Windows install or update ComfyUI and run.  When you're updating previous installation,  

  • 00:08:16 it will be really fast. Just follow the speed  here. You see, this is updating right now. Okay,  

  • 00:08:22 updating. It should be done under 1 minute  in total time. Okay, still updating,  

  • 00:08:28 almost done. We are getting there. Yes, updated.  It took like 30 seconds to update the ComfyUI to  

  • 00:08:35 the latest version with the newest stuff that we  need. This is how my ComfyUI installation works.

  • 00:08:42 Okay, the fresh installation also completed.  It took few minutes. You can scroll up to see  

  • 00:08:48 whether there are any errors or not. There  shouldn't be any errors. Once you see that,  

  • 00:08:53 press any key to continue. You are done with the  ComfyUI installation. As a next step, we are going  

  • 00:08:59 to install SwarmUI. The link of this post will be  also in the description of the video and also in  

  • 00:09:05 the comment section, the pinned comment. Download  the latest SwarmUI model downloader zip file. Move  

  • 00:09:11 it into the disk wherever you want to install.  So I will install into my Q drive. Extract it,  

  • 00:09:18 then you will see that there is Windows install  SwarmUI.bat file. Double click, run. This  

  • 00:09:24 will install the latest version of the SwarmUI.  SwarmUI installation is also lightning fast. Okay,  

  • 00:09:32 it is getting there. Yes, started. Now follow  my steps exactly. I agree. Customize settings,  

  • 00:09:40 not just install. Yes, we can say yes. Choose your  theme. Okay, next, next. Now this is important. We  

  • 00:09:48 are not going to use ComfyUI local. Okay, this is  super important because this ComfyUI version is  

  • 00:09:54 very weak and problematic. We are going to  use the ComfyUI we just installed. This is  

  • 00:09:59 mandatory. So select none, next. You can download  the models that you want. I'm not going to. Next,  

  • 00:10:05 and yes, I am sure. You see, it is instant,  instantly installed. Then we are going to go  

  • 00:10:11 to server tab, backends, and we are going to  add ComfyUI self-starting. Okay. You see now  

  • 00:10:19 this screen has arrived. We are going  to add our ComfyUI folder path here.

  • 00:10:25 So I had installed it into my Q drive, which  is inside here. ComfyUI, copy this path,  

  • 00:10:32 and then backslash main.py. So then you can also  give some extra arguments. What kind of extra  

  • 00:10:40 arguments? For example, in the ComfyUI post,  you will see that there is like reserve VRAM,  

  • 00:10:46 use SAGE attention, GPU only. This is for  very high VRAM GPUs. High VRAM. There are  

  • 00:10:52 more options of ComfyUI, but I am going  to use SAGE attention. The rest can be  

  • 00:10:58 default. This SAGE attention will improve my  performance significantly. Save. In some models,  

  • 00:11:07 this can produce black output. If you get black  output, just edit here and delete this. Otherwise,  

  • 00:11:15 you can keep it. And currently it is going to  use my first GPU. If you have multiple GPUs,  

  • 00:11:21 you can add another backend like this. Copy this,  paste, then select the GPU ID 1. You can use extra  

  • 00:11:30 arguments, save. So now when I generate two  images, it will generate on each GPU. Moreover,  

  • 00:11:37 I also recommend overQueue to zero. So it  will immediately start on the next available  

  • 00:11:44 GPU without waiting. So these are the settings  that I am using. I don't change anything else.

  • 00:11:50 And when I start the SwarmUI again next time,  it will also automatically update my ComfyUI.  

  • 00:11:55 You can see that there is always auto-update of  the backend. If you get update errors, which you  

  • 00:12:01 shouldn't, you can manually update the ComfyUI  because we have updater. You see, we just run  

  • 00:12:07 this. For SwarmUI update, we have Windows update  SwarmUI. Let me show you that too. So, okay, it is  

  • 00:12:14 started, so I will just close this. Double click  Windows update SwarmUI.bat file. It will start  

  • 00:12:20 right away. You see, it is starting, and yes.  Now I need to wait again for backends to load.  

  • 00:12:27 So currently, in my installation, there is no  presets here. How am I going to use the presets?

  • 00:12:35 We have preset installer. You can use both  ways. When you use the preset installer here,  

  • 00:12:41 windows_preset_delete_import.bat file, it  will delete your older presets and import  

  • 00:12:47 new ones. But don't worry, your older presets  will be saved in preset backup. Currently,  

  • 00:12:54 since I don't have any presets, they are  not saved anywhere. Then I need to click  

  • 00:13:00 refresh and all presets arrived. So  now you are ready to use like this.

  • 00:13:06 And if you want to update your previous SwarmUI  installation instead of a fresh installation,  

  • 00:13:11 go to the folder, extract zip file, right click  and extract all files here. You can use Windows  

  • 00:13:18 extract system or whatever. Overwrite  all files. Then it is same, you just  

  • 00:13:23 need to import new presets. You can import new  presets from here, import presets, choose file.  

  • 00:13:31 So this is manual way. Choose the preset  file, overwrite existing presets and import,  

  • 00:13:37 and it will import existing presets for you. Then  click refresh. We have made a fresh installation,  

  • 00:13:44 but we are lacking the models. When I  go to models, there are no models here,  

  • 00:13:49 or there are no LoRAs here. How you are going to  find these models? I made it so easy as well. So  

  • 00:13:55 this was our fresh installation and you see there  is windows_start_model_downloader_app.bat file.  

  • 00:14:02 Double click it, click run. It will start our  model downloader application. This application  

  • 00:14:08 is amazing, you will see it. It will also generate  a virtual environment. All my installers generates  

  • 00:14:14 a virtual environment and installs everything  there. So your installed ComfyUI will never  

  • 00:14:20 break anything else. You can have multiple ComfyUI  installations. All will be independent. You see  

  • 00:14:25 when I enter inside ComfyUI, there is virtual  environment. So everything is installed here,  

  • 00:14:30 nowhere else. So I can have as many  as different ComfyUIs that I want.

  • 00:14:34 Okay, it is getting started. Yes. So this is our  model downloader interface. For this tutorial, we  

  • 00:14:42 are going to use SwarmUI bundles, Image Generation  and Editing bundle. This will have QWEN Image  

  • 00:14:48 Edit Plus, QWEN Image, best upscaler models, face  segmentation models, Wan 2.2 text-to-video model.  

  • 00:14:57 This is what we are going to use. Flux SRPO model,  this is best Flux realism model, and the other  

  • 00:15:05 needed files. So just click this and follow the  CMD window. This downloader is extremely robust.  

  • 00:15:13 It will download and do hash calculation.  Therefore, all the downloaded models will  

  • 00:15:19 be verified, 100% accurate. There can be never  any corrupted downloaded model file with this  

  • 00:15:26 downloader. The logic of this downloader is that  it is like you get. If you have used you-get, you  

  • 00:15:33 will know it. So when I go back to my models  folder into diffusion models, this is usually  

  • 00:15:38 where the models downloaded. You see that it is  16 parts. So it is downloading with 16 different  

  • 00:15:45 connections. Therefore, it is super fast. You see,  my speed is over 100 megabytes per second on my  

  • 00:15:52 personal computer. On cloud machines, this is 300,  400 megabytes. When I go to Task Manager and my  

  • 00:15:58 internet connection, you can see that it is using  1 gigabit. This is my internet speed. Therefore,  

  • 00:16:03 it is maximum utilizing it. Once these model  downloads completed, it will merge these  

  • 00:16:10 files into a single file and it has a full resume  capability. So I will close this to show you. Then  

  • 00:16:17 start the Windows Start Models Downloader file  like this. Then I will click the SwarmUI bundles,  

  • 00:16:24 download image generation and editing bundle. And  you see, it is continuing wherever it is left.

  • 00:16:30 Believe me, this application took a lot of time  of me to develop and this is version 85 right now.  

  • 00:16:36 So when you go to URL downloader, you can also  download models from this interface. For example,  

  • 00:16:43 let's download this Flux model. Copy this URL,  then paste the model URL here, and select the  

  • 00:16:50 target folder. Since this is Flux model, let's  see, this is a Flux pruned fp8 model. So this  

  • 00:16:57 goes into models, diffusion models. Then click  download. It will automatically start downloading  

  • 00:17:03 this model as well. However, currently we are  downloading other models, so it will show both  

  • 00:17:09 of them at the same time, but it is so easy.  You can also provide your own Civitai key or  

  • 00:17:16 Hugging Face API key, but we have some default  keys, so you don't need to provide them. So  

  • 00:17:22 this URL downloader is also extremely useful,  especially on cloud machines, on cloud services.

  • 00:17:28 So you see this model file has been downloaded,  QWEN Image Edit Plus, and it has been merged.  

  • 00:17:34 Now it is downloading the other files. And  when you next time start the application,  

  • 00:17:39 the verified downloaded files will be just  skipped. It will not re-download them,  

  • 00:17:45 or if the download has been  interrupted, it will resume.

  • 00:17:48 And the rest is as I have shown in the beginning.  I have returned back to my other installation  

  • 00:17:54 where I have all the downloaded model files, as  you can see right now. Before using any preset,  

  • 00:18:01 make sure that click Quick Tools, Reset Params to  Default. So it will default all the parameters.  

  • 00:18:08 Then go to preset and use whatever you want. For  example, let's use the QWEN Image Realism. This  

  • 00:18:15 has significantly improved my quality with  QWEN LoRA. I will show hopefully soon it,  

  • 00:18:21 training QWEN LoRA. Direct apply and paste  your prompt. Then select the aspect ratio  

  • 00:18:27 that you want. This is also really fast. It  is only eight steps, but normally I recommend  

  • 00:18:33 QWEN for stylized images. So for stylized  images, you can use this preset rather than  

  • 00:18:40 this one. For realism currently I recommend Wan  2.2 image realism preset, and for best quality,  

  • 00:18:47 I recommend you to upscale images to 2x. Actually,  it is 4x resolution in total. So we are getting  

  • 00:18:54 the QWEN image result. I will also show you  Flux SRPO. It is also a really realistic model.

  • 00:19:02 So let's see the results of each one. You see  the QWEN is really fast and this is a really  

  • 00:19:07 high resolution, it is almost 2 megapixels.  Okay, the image has been generated. It is not  

  • 00:19:11 very realistic. The QWEN is not very realistic.  This is the realism we got, but this is what QWEN  

  • 00:19:18 is. Hopefully, you will see that it is way more  realistic with self LoRA training. So let's try  

  • 00:19:23 this with Flux SRPO. Quick Tools, Reset Params to  Default, then direct apply. This will select the  

  • 00:19:31 Flux base model by default. Therefore, you need  to select Flux SRPO yourself like this. You see  

  • 00:19:37 the selected model is now Flux SRPO. Paste your  prompt, select your aspect ratio, okay, here,  

  • 00:19:44 and generate. Flux SRPO is also really fast to  generate. Now it is reloading my model. One of  

  • 00:19:50 the best part of my preset system is that you can  test all of them so quickly, compare, and decide  

  • 00:19:58 which one is working best for your case. If you  remember, this image was really, really realistic  

  • 00:20:03 on Wan 2.2 preset. So for realism, currently Wan  2.2 image realism is my number one choice, and  

  • 00:20:12 Flux SRPO is my second choice, which we are about  to see. And this is not upscaled, remember we need  

  • 00:20:19 to upscale for even better. Yes, this is Flux  SRPO. It is also really realistic. If we upscale  

  • 00:20:26 this image, it will become much better. So reuse  parameters, direct apply the upscale. You will  

  • 00:20:31 notice that it has enabled upscale and generate.  Now we will get much better quality image.

  • 00:20:38 If you also don't have a powerful GPU and you want  to use cloud services like RunPod or MassCompute,  

  • 00:20:44 I will make separate tutorials to show how to  install and use there. Moreover, I already also  

  • 00:20:51 have some tutorials for RunPod and MassCompute.  For example, this tutorial is made for RunPod,  

  • 00:20:57 so you can watch this to learn how to install  ComfyUI and SwarmUI. And this tutorial is showing  

  • 00:21:03 you how to install new ComfyUI on MassCompute  and use the existing SwarmUI there. So we already  

  • 00:21:11 have tutorials, but I plan to make specific  tutorials for this one as well, for today's  

  • 00:21:17 tutorial as well. Okay, now I have upscaled  the image. So from this image to this image,  

  • 00:21:23 we got it. So it is up to you, you can try, see  which one is working best for your case. And for  

  • 00:21:29 stylization, I think QWEN is the best. So I will  do reset params to default, direct apply this one,  

  • 00:21:38 and let's try a non-realistic image. So let's  make the resolution like this. Surprisingly, Wan  

  • 00:21:44 2.2 also good with non-realistic images as well.  For example, this one was generated on Wan 2.2,  

  • 00:21:52 or this image was also generated on Wan 2.2.  But in my opinion, if your aim is not realism,  

  • 00:22:00 then QWEN may yield better results. This is  base one, not upscaled, and this is the quality.

  • 00:22:08 So what about image editing? We have amazing  preset for image editing as well. Reset params  

  • 00:22:13 to default. And currently, best image editing  model is QWEN Image Edit Plus 12 steps. So direct  

  • 00:22:23 apply. And I am going to edit these two images. So  I will drag and drop them to here. You see, here,  

  • 00:22:30 not init image. This is important. Then select  the aspect ratio that is closer to your input  

  • 00:22:38 main target image. If you don't know it, you  can use this strategy. Choose your main image,  

  • 00:22:43 click res, and use closest aspect ratio like  this, and it will auto-set. Or you can use exact  

  • 00:22:49 aspect ratio as well, or you can use resolution  as well. So you can compare all three cases and  

  • 00:22:55 decide which one is working best. And after that,  disable init image. This is important. Then type  

  • 00:23:01 your prompt. So my prompt will be simple as this  one. Make him wear headphones and generate. This  

  • 00:23:10 QWEN Image Edit model works with commands. So  you give a command, describe whatever you want,  

  • 00:23:19 and just wait the result. This model is really,  really powerful. I already have full tutorial  

  • 00:23:24 for this model. You can see it here, Nano Banana  versus QWEN Image Edit or QWEN Image Edit full  

  • 00:23:32 tutorial. We also have a newer model, QWEN  Image Edit Plus. I already updated the model  

  • 00:23:37 downloader and also the preset for this new  model. So even though these older tutorials  

  • 00:23:43 were for the base QWEN Image Edit model, now  we have the latest QWEN Image Edit model.

  • 00:23:49 Okay, it didn't understand the prompt. So let's  try another prompt. Make him wear the headphone.  

  • 00:23:55 This usually never happened to me before, but  this time it happened. So let's try again. Okay,  

  • 00:24:00 this time it is working. So if you don't  get the output you want at the first time,  

  • 00:24:06 try with a different seed. It will help you.  You see, I am currently trying a different  

  • 00:24:11 seed. One of the best parts of the SwarmUI is  that you can have different presets yourself,  

  • 00:24:18 you can have wildcards to test different  prompts. For example, I have used a lot of  

  • 00:24:23 different prompts to generate to show you in  the beginning. These prompts are also shared  

  • 00:24:28 in the zip file. You will see that there  are some test prompts. So you can follow  

  • 00:24:34 these prompts and see which one of them, how  written they are. Okay, this is it. You see,  

  • 00:24:40 we made him wear that specific headphones.  This is the best image editing model. I mean,  

  • 00:24:45 you can make like this, for example, make  hair blue and generate. It understands your  

  • 00:24:54 instructions. It is like ChatGPT image editing  or Nano Banana image editing. And this model is  

  • 00:25:00 really, really good. If you don't get exact image  that you want, I mean like pixel distortions or  

  • 00:25:07 some other stuff, you should try different aspect  ratios from here. You see, closest aspect ratio,  

  • 00:25:13 exact aspect ratio, use resolution, use exact  aspect resolution. So try all the cases and see  

  • 00:25:20 which one is yielding the best results. And this  is it. So it did the command I made him to do.

  • 00:25:28 So this is all for today. I hope you have enjoyed.  Please subscribe, leave a like, leave a comment.  

  • 00:25:34 The links will be in the description of the  video. And hopefully I will make quick RunPod  

  • 00:25:39 and MassCompute tutorials as well to show you  how to install on cloud. And if you don't have a  

  • 00:25:45 powerful GPU, you will be able to generate really  fast images there. Moreover, all your images are  

  • 00:25:51 saved inside SwarmUI, inside output, inside local,  inside raw, based on date. If you have generated  

  • 00:25:58 grids, based on grid. Furthermore, in the image  history tab, you will see all your images. You  

  • 00:26:04 can filter them by words. It really works well.  Like eyeglasses, and it will show all the prompts  

  • 00:26:12 that had eyeglasses. And you can look each one of  them like this one. And hopefully, see you later.
