ComfyUI-UltraPixel Description

ComfyUI-UltraPixel integrates UltraPixel technology into ComfyUI, enhancing image processing capabilities. This extension optimizes pixel manipulation, providing superior visual quality and performance within the ComfyUI framework.

ComfyUI-UltraPixel Introduction

ComfyUI-UltraPixel is an extension designed to integrate the powerful capabilities of UltraPixel into the ComfyUI environment. UltraPixel is a cutting-edge tool for generating ultra-high-resolution images, making it an invaluable asset for AI artists looking to create detailed and high-quality visuals. This extension allows you to leverage UltraPixel's advanced image synthesis features directly within ComfyUI, streamlining your workflow and enhancing your creative output.

Key Features:

  • High-Resolution Image Generation: Create stunning images with resolutions up to 4096x4096 pixels.
  • ControlNet Integration: Use ControlNet to guide the image generation process with additional control over the output.
  • Customizable Workflows: Load and modify provided workflow JSON files to suit your specific needs.

How ComfyUI-UltraPixel Works

ComfyUI-UltraPixel works by wrapping the original UltraPixel code within a ComfyUI node, allowing you to use UltraPixel's capabilities seamlessly within the ComfyUI interface. When you run a workflow, the extension downloads the necessary model files and integrates them into your project. This process ensures that you have access to the latest features and improvements from UltraPixel.

Basic Principles:

  1. Node Integration: The extension adds a new node to ComfyUI, which you can use in your workflows.
  2. Model Downloading: The first time you run a workflow, the extension downloads the required model files into a designated directory.
  3. Image Generation: By connecting the appropriate nodes and inputs, you can generate high-resolution images based on your prompts and settings.

ComfyUI-UltraPixel Features

High-Resolution Image Generation

  • Text-to-Image: Generate images from textual descriptions. For example, a prompt like "A close-up portrait of a young woman with flawless skin, vibrant red lipstick, and wavy brown hair, wearing a vintage floral dress and standing in front of a blooming garden" can produce a highly detailed image.
  • ControlNet: Enhance your image generation by using ControlNet to provide additional guidance. This feature allows you to load an image and use it to influence the generated output.

Customizable Workflows

  • Workflow JSON Files: Load pre-configured workflow files such as workflow_controlnet.json to quickly set up your projects. These files can be modified to better suit your specific needs.
  • Directory Customization: Change the default directory for model files by adjusting the ultrapixel_directory or stablecascade_directory settings in the UltraPixel Load node.

GPU Compatibility

  • 10GB GPUs: Supports resolutions up to 2048x2048 pixels.
  • 12GB GPUs: Supports resolutions up to 3072x3072 pixels.
  • 16GB GPUs: Supports resolutions up to 4096x4096 pixels for text-to-image and 3840x4096 pixels for ControlNet.

ComfyUI-UltraPixel Models

ComfyUI-UltraPixel uses different models to achieve its high-resolution image synthesis. These models are downloaded automatically when you first run a workflow.

Available Models:

  • Stage B Lite (BF16): A lightweight model optimized for efficiency.
  • StableCascade Models: Used for various stages of the image generation process, ensuring high quality and performance.

When to Use Each Model:

  • Stage B Lite: Ideal for users with limited GPU memory who still want to achieve high-quality results.
  • StableCascade Models: Suitable for more complex and detailed image generation tasks, providing a balance between quality and performance.
