“To those who were there from the beginning: this is the return of the model that made us fall in love with realism.
Realism Engine Reprise 4.0 isn't just an upgrade — it's a piece of history that breathes again.”Realism Engine Reprise 4.0 is the next evolution of my photographic realism model, designed to deliver extremely clean, coherent, and natural images under any lighting condition. It is optimized for DPM++ 2M SDE and SIMPLE, with or without Karras, ensuring stability, detail, and accurate color reproduction. It also performs excellently with DPM++ 3M SDE Karras using the same recommended parameters.

Great model!!!
I've Realism Engine SDXL v3.0 from @razzz, was this your old model under different user name or was it another creators model?
Did you change your user name from Razzz to JRD 2212?
No, I'm not who you say but I too had 3 versions of my realism engine in the old account...I'm glad you liked mine, my old account was jarod2212 now it's JRD_2212
wow ..susch a great model..i didnt realize how bad the models i used were till i tried this. ty.
Thanks so much! I'm happy that the model is giving you good results.
I always try to take care of every detail, so reading comments like this is really nice.
Model looks amazing. About the recommended samplers from what i know simple is a scheduler like karras and not a sampler. so it has to be used with a sampler.
Thanks for the heads‑up! Yes, you’re right — simple works as a scheduler, not as a standalone sampler. I mentioned it because it tends to give very stable results when paired with the right sampler. I’ll update the description to make it clearer. Appreciate the feedback!
