    Going to load 2 of the same model from New Phase V3.0 One with a backed in VAE from Civitai and one without (the same way as all the other models before New Phase) I need testing and feed back please. What works, what doesn't. If you have to add something you normally do, what is it and why. I'm trying to learn why I have an issue and make it work for everyone

    I see models were they have also put the VAE download below the Checkpoint download. I've been trying to figure out how to do that, so if someone one could explain the steps to doing it, that would be great

    Well so far I see 3 to 1 in favor of baked in, if people prefer baked in or not
