MoP Mixes are a series of checkpoints that merge the MoP (Mixture of Perverts) model with one other model that I find interesting. These are completely separate from the normal MoP releases because those are a much more complicated merge that requires a lot of testing. MoP Mixes are much simpler to produce with the goal of creating a MoP variation that hopefully some people may find useful or just fun.
To be clear, these MoP mixes should in no way be considered better than or a replacement for the checkpoint being merged with MoP. I strongly encourage you to download and test out the checkpoint for yourself and use it in the way that its author intended.
While these checkpoints will most likely all be DMD-enabled, the recommended settings for each mix may be different so check the About This Version section for all the details. Also, there are a couple of ComfyUI workflows specifically for these mixes so I strongly recommend starting with that and then tailoring it to your needs.
Note: If you want to convert any of these DMD checkpoints to a non-DMD checkpoint then all you need to do is add the DMD LoRA and set the strength to a negative value. I would start with -0.85 and adjust from there. That will allow you to use a higher CFG and different samplers than LCM.
Fooocus Setup Instructions
1) Click the Advanced checkbox.
2) On the Settings tab, leave the Preset as 'initial' and the Performance as 'Speed'.
3) On the Models tab, set both the Base and Refiner models to MoP.
4) Change the Refiner Switch At setting to anywhere from 0.75 to 0.90. I like 0.85.
5) On the Advanced tab, change the Guidance Scale to 1.
6) Change the Positive ADM Guidance Scaler to 1.
7) Change the Sampler to 'lcm'. You can leave the Scheduler as Karras or Exponential.
8) Set the Forced Overwrite of Sampling Step to 7 to 11. I like 9.
Description
This is a non-DMD merge between MoP v6.1 and epiCRealism Xl Pure. Use the workflow in the first showcase image for best results. I haven't yet created a separate workflow for it.
This is a regular SDXL checkpoint that doesn't include the DMD lora so the recommended settings are:
Sampler: dpmpp_2m_sde
Scheduler: karras
Steps: 20-40
CFG: 3.5-5.0

Your models are even better then flux, nano banana or etc... thx!
馃槒馃槒 I can't wait to try it! I love your models, congratulations!
big asp messed up the model. all i get are blobs
It's not a normal SDXL checkpoint. Are you using the workflow I created for this model? https://civitai.com/models/2130186/mop-mix-workflows. Are you using both the high and low models in the right configuration?
The checkpoint and workflow make lovely preview images, any idea why it doesn't go to the refiner half and save the pic?
Impossible to say without looking at your workflow. Are there any errors in the console or highlighted nodes?
@GBRX聽Thank you for the reply! No, it is your workflow from the sample pic of the woman in the green dress. I had to install the film grain node but that's the only change. It runs, displays the preview image, then stops.
@drew聽Do you have the FaceDetailer bbox models installed? If not you can find them here, https://civitai.com/models/2172100?modelVersionId=2543959. I'm guessing that's the issue
@GBRX聽That was it, thank you!
@GBRX BigASP2.5 has this flow matching thing, is it possible to merge that with normal SDXL models, how?
That's how I created the MoP Mix, by merging it with regular MoP. It can be very tricky though and you have to carefully choose how to weight the different blocks. In general though, I would not recommend merging it with a regular SDXL model.
This one seems not be working on Forge Neo
WAI Zynthra is absolute dope dude. Thanks for sharing this gem!
