Can't use pose because ControlNet model is not instailled

[shikochi]

HI! I can't use pose because the ControlNet model is not installed. I tried following this tutorial to install ControlNet, but I don't actually know how to install it. My English isn't very good, so I may not fully understand the tutorial. There is no "ai_diffusion" folder in my Krita folder. I also can't run this line of code successfully : python download_models.py /path/to/your/comfyui.

Is this code supposed to be executed in the ComfyUI folder or in the Krita folder? I’ve tried running it in both, but I keep getting this error message:

I would like to ask if there are any other ways to resolve the "pose ControlNet model" issue? I'm sorry for the trouble, and I really appreciate your help.

https://github.com/Acly/krita-ai-diffusion/discussions/1208 You can download this tool and click on one-click download to complete the error repair. The software must be placed in the comfyUI directory.

A copy of this file should already be located in the plugin install directory. Best invoke it directly from there. Replace /path/to/your/comfyui with the actual path (D:\AI\ComfyUI_windows_portable in your case).

Add eg. --sdxl --controlnet to download SDXL ControlNet models (including pose)

Thank you so much for your help! I later followed this method (https://www.bilibili.com/read/cv28325204/?jump_opus=1) and solved the issue. Your method seems more convenient, so I’ll try using it next time. Thank you again!

Thank you for your quick response! I found a way to solve the problem, and I'll try your method next time! One question: is installing SDXL necessary? Thanks!

The document on page ( https://github.com/Acly/krita-ai-diffusion/wiki/ComfyUI-Setup ) maybe confuse if someone who isn't good at English like I am.

To make it easier and more clear, install this file download_models.py on C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Roaming\krita\pykrita.
Then call it with command (and maybe with path to ComfyUI as example above).
Example for my case:

python download_models.py "C:\stable-diffusion\ComfyUI" --all

The folder "C:\stable-diffusion\ComfyUI" must contain models, comfy, comfy_execution, main.py folders and files in it.
