FeaturedAuto1111 Tutorial Chapter 6 Advanced Models Conception

A checkpoint refers to a large model, which contains comprehensive and extensive recorded information. In addition to these large models, there are smaller models like Lora, Embeddings, and Hypernetworks that fine-tune the large model in more detailed ways.

Learn About Embeddings

If you select an embedding on Civitai, you'll notice that their sizes are usually around 20 or 30 KB, which is very small. How is this possible? Think of a checkpoint as a dictionary, and an embedding as a bookmark within it, guiding you to the definitions of specific words. In other words, embeddings can be used to capture and restore character features, such as this Lucy Lu embedding.

To use an embedding, download the file first. Then, upload it into the "embeddings" folder. When you can see the embedding file in that folder, it means the upload was successful. Don't forget to include the trigger words in your prompt, as the embedding might not work without them.

Learn About Lora

Lora helps convey accurate features and clear subjects to the AI during the training of painting styles. If embeddings are like bookmarks, then Lora is like a coloring page tucked inside the dictionary, detailing all definitions, characteristics, and illustrations. This allows the AI to have a clear and detailed understanding of the image the user wants to generate.

Lora files typically range from 100 to 200 MB and are often used for game and manga characters.

To use Lora, find the Lora you want on Civitai and click "download." Then, go to WEBUI, navigate to the models folder, find the Lora folder, and upload the Lora file you downloaded.

Let's try this prompt:

jinx \(league of legends\), 1girl, solo, long hair, breasts, looking at viewer, smile, bangs, gloves, bare shoulders, very long hair, blue hair, braid, teeth, black gloves, belt, fingerless gloves, pink eyes, nail polish, grin, blurry, twin braids, crop top, hand on hip, tattoo, leaning forward, blurry background, blue nails, freckles, asymmetrical bangs, arm tattoo, shoulder tattoo, pink pants

Learn About Hypernetwork

Hypernetwork is used to improve the overall style of generated images,which is painting style. However, Hypernetwork are not considered as mainstream.

FInd the hypernetwork you want to use from Civitai, click download. Back to WEBUI, find models folder, click in and find hypernetworks. Then upload the hypernetwork you just downloaded.
