    Thanks for the shoutout on using colour crefs. Since the trick makes colour more precise, there’s practical commercial use-cases, such as logos or templates for print-on-demand T-shirts, etc. Multiple colour crefs are also great for a specific palette with groups of objects, like a basket of Easter eggs.

    • @FutureTechPilot
      @FutureTechPilot  Před 2 měsíci +1

      I don't have any inside information! But my guess is that yes they are, and I bet it would work similar to character and style reference. Like a pose reference, where we supply the pose we want and then it applies to the generation. But that's just a guess!

    @rasserfrasser Před měsícem +1

    One thing I'd like to add is that SREF/CREF doesn't work all that well for painted/cartoon-like characters. It works much better (from what I can tell) with photographic references. The paint style transfers from the reference well, but I have a squirrel jumping from a tree, and when I use either function it warps my squirrel into some like...Ren-like squirrel from Ren and Stimpy with googly eyes (or something like that). It just can't hold onto the abstract nature of the squirrels features when making a style/character composite. It could be that the facial pose is not that great, but I'm not seeing results regardless of cw/sw.

      No. completely distinct. Works with animals as well so probably can be generalized. I find you need to repeat the initial phrase to get good results. i.e. reference image of "a dog and a chicken" needs that phrase as part of the prompt e.g. "dog and a chicken climbing a mountain"

    I created what I believed to be the perfect character... around 100 generations to get what I considered to be the ideal female character. I had some problems in the past trying to create a character, I would generate one, save it to set preference for use with --cref but whatever clothing the character was wearing in the origimal generation always influenced what the character was wearing, no matter what I set CW to... even zero and the problem with zero, even though it is supposed to just focus on keeping the face consistent, I found that also wasn't the case, wild variations in how the character appeared. So I decided to focus on just creating a neck up portrait studio style picture and save that for use as --cref now when I try and generate a picture of the character, even at --CW 100 she ends up being some psychotic looking creation, with wild crazy looking eyes and with what appears to be blood splatters on her face or open wounds... further down on CW from 90-0 the only thing that remains consistent is the Psycho look on her face and she looks less and less like the character I originally created... to the point where she has 4 legs jutting out from weird places 🤣 I dunno, at this point I'm ready to give up on character consistency, the only consistent results I'm getting is inconsistencies.

    Question: Do you recommend using colors and texture for -cref instead of -sref? I thought style reference was for this kind of prompting. Unless you’re saying it works better for character reference?

    Hi, have you tried using the `--seed` option to get closer to the original pictures? I'm also curious as to why, when the Vary (Region) works so well, the `--cref` can't duplicate the picture exactly?

    thank you for the great information, but unfortunately, I have tried but it doesn't work for architecture prompts yet. for example, if we want to have an interior view of the building which we generated before, I didn't work.

      Yah there is no way it can do that right now. But maybe you could try using that building as an --sref link when you describe your interiors

    • @FutureTechPilot
      @FutureTechPilot  Před 2 měsíci +1

      Image prompts just don't work that well (in terms of a consistent face) I think that's probably the problem - unless you're getting a completely random face, then I'm not really sure

    5:07 That's not true, you can use more than one character reference in the --cref parameter and it's not necessary to use Vary Region to change a character to get them distinct from each other. It's not very effective with simple cartoon characters (--cref in general doesn't do well with cartoons) but it does work with more human characters.

It just gave me a whole lot of faces with weird expressions - most of them are with open mouth and looked like screaming, and they don't look like the reference character. I followed all your settings eg cw, raw etc. I wonder what went wrong?

    I thought exporting the image externally and then uploading it back was a no-no. I thought you had to use native MidJourney images within MidJourney.
