SOL-ILv1 🗡️
Checkpoint Merge • SDXL 1.0 Architecture
SOL-ILv1 is a full SDXL 1.0 checkpoint merge combining the illustrative power of Illustrious v2.0 with the versatile foundation of SmoothMix Ultimate. Designed for artists who need sharp, detailed illustrations with stable composition and strong color rendering.
✦ Details
| Property | Value |
|---------------|------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| Architecture | SDXL 1.0 (UNet 9+1+9) |
| Parameters | 3.47B total |
| Precision | FP16 (UNet + Text Encoders) / FP32 (VAE) |
| File Size | ~7.1 GB |
| Text Encoders | CLIP-ViT/L-14 (embedder.0) + OpenCLIP-ViT/bigG (embedder.1) — included |
| VAE | SDXL 4-channel (included, FP32) |
| Merge Method | Weighted Sum |
✦ Merge Recipe
- Base: stabilityai/stable-diffusion-xl-base-1.0
- Blend A: SmoothMix Ultimate
- Blend B: Illustrious v2.0
- Method: Weighted sum merge
✦ Usage
Load directly as a full checkpoint in:
- ComfyUI: CheckpointLoaderSimple → select SOL-ILv1.safetensors
- AUTOMATIC1111: Place in models/Stable-diffusion/, select from dropdown
- Forge: Same as A1111
No need for separate CLIP or VAE — everything is embedded in the checkpoint.
Recommended Settings
- Resolution: 1024×1024, 832×1216, 1216×832
- Sampler: DPM++ 2M Karras / Euler a
- Steps: 25–35
- CFG: 5–8
- VAE: Built-in (no external VAE needed)
⚠️ Known Issue
Layer 11 of CLIP-ViT/L-14 (conditioner.embedders.0.transformer.text_model.encoder.layers.11) contains NaN values — inherited from the original merge. This affects 0.2% of total parameters and does not impact generation quality in practice, as SDXL uses 12 CLIP layers and failure in one sublayer is compensated by the rest of the encoder.

Description
SOL-ZIv1
A Stable Diffusion 3.5 Medium checkpoint merge by Brier Studios, combining SmoothMix Ultimate with zImage Turbo v1.0 via weighted sum. Focused on high-quality illustrative and artistic output with the power of the SD3.5 Medium DiT architecture.
Architecture: SD3.5 Medium (Stable Diffusion 3.5 Medium)
Parameters: 6.24B (BF16)
Total Tensors: 697
What's included:
- DiT backbone (30 transformer layers)
- SD3 VAE (16-channel)
- adaLN, context refiner, noise refiner, caption embedder
What's NOT included:
- Text encoders (CLIP-L, CLIP-G, T5-XXL must be loaded separately)
- Use CheckpointLoaderSimple (if merged as full checkpoint) or UNETLoader + VAELoader + CLIPLoader in ComfyUI
Important: This is an SD3.5 Medium model, NOT SDXL. You MUST use an SD3.5-compatible loader -- do NOT use SDXL or SD1.5 loaders with this checkpoint.
Merge Components:
- Base: Stable Diffusion 3.5 Medium
- Mix A: SmoothMix Ultimate
- Mix B: zImage Turbo v1.0
- Method: Weighted Sum
Recommended Settings (ComfyUI):
- Sampler: Euler / Euler a
- Steps: 28-40
- CFG: 3.5-5.0 (SD3.5 works at lower CFG than SDXL)
- Resolution: 1024x1024 or SD3.5 native aspect ratios
