Has anybody actulay got this to work ?

[NovaSabre]

I'm at a stage where I think this is just a malicious prank breaking everybody's confyUI's

[jwvanderbeck]

Does almost count? :p I think I have most of it worked out but I'm still stumbling on the InsightFace loader. However I think it might be because of the version of insightface I have installed due to an issue compiling it locally.

[GillesVermeulen]

Got it technically working on Windows (not on Mac yet), but the resulting images look nothing like the input face.

[aminesoulaymani]

I got it to work on windows, but the VRAM consumption is very weird, with a huge peak right after the generation process, and the results are not that good, the pose is always the same as the input picture, and the face is not that resembling

try this - https://github.com/huxiuhan/comfyui-instantid

UPDATE I'm close - workflow loads see notes here https://github.com/ZHO-ZHO-ZHO/ComfyUI-InstantID/pull/17

but hitting a snag with controlnet asking for a config.json

maybe needs one of these https://huggingface.co/collections/diffusers/sdxl-controlnets-64f9c35846f3f06f5abe351f

clone this and specify path in first node. ComfyUI/models/controlnet/ git clone https://huggingface.co/lllyasviel/sd-controlnet-mlsd

[b4sh]

Works for me. It's slow and VRAM hungry (RTX4070), some SDXL base checkpoint not working (out of memory). Insightface loader set to CUDA results very slow generation. ComfyUI running on Linux (WSL2).

[johndpope]

@b4sh - what did you use for controlnet loader?

[Mossbraker]

@b4sh - what did you use for controlnet loader?

使用方法 | How to Use

下载 InstantID/ControlNetModel 中的 config.json 和 diffusion_pytorch_model.safetensors ，将模型地址填入 📷ID ControlNet Loader 节点中（例如：ComfyUI/custom_nodes/ComfyUI-InstantID/checkpoints/controlnet）

下载 InstantID/ip-adapter 中的 ip-adapter.bin ，将其地址填入 📷Ipadapter_instantid Loader 节点中（例如：ComfyUI/custom_nodes/ComfyUI-InstantID/checkpoints）

下载 DIAMONIK7777/antelopev2 中的所有模型，将其放入 ComfyUI//custom_nodes/ComfyUI-InstantID/models/antelopev2 中

[wandrzej]

To be honest, as InstantID is now implemented in diffusers, I hope we might get a proper implementation.

https://github.com/huggingface/diffusers/blob/main/examples/community/pipeline_stable_diffusion_xl_instantid.py

On top of other issues, just like with PhotoMaker we have an issue with two competing implementations with the same name even.

I had this error, just having the json file in the same directory as the controlnet model and renaming the json to config.json was enough to solve this for me. It requires you to download the json file with the controlnet model if you didn't realize.

I got it working on my CPU, but it doesn't recognize cuda for some reason... In order to get it to work on cpu, I had to uninstall IPAdapter, rename the json to config.json, redownload all the antelopev2 files and replace them in the models/antelopev2 folder... idk if I will try to solve the cuda error or just wait for a proper implementation.

[jwvanderbeck]

Yeah the json file is easy just missing from the instructions. In the same place you downloaded the controlnet model, download the config json from that same place and name it "config.json" and put it in the same location.

My issue is with insightface and the InsightFace Loader. I can't install insightface normally though pip install because it tries to compile it for my computer and fails. I CAN install it by using --prefer-binary so it downloads a pre-compiled binary instead, but I am not 100% sure that binary is compatible or the right version because when I try to run the InsightFace loader, there is an error in the code. The constructor is passing in a kwarg that isn't recognized as valid. I did a few hours of debugging yesterday but didn't get to the bottom of it :(

[johndpope]

are you on right python version? 3.11 ? show the logs when comfyui loads. I added these notes for workflow - https://github.com/ZHO-ZHO-ZHO/ComfyUI-InstantID/pull/17/files I'm using this https://huggingface.co/thibaud/controlnet-openpose-sdxl-1.0

my impression with instantid from workflows in this repo - I want to have more control of the style. I attempt to load this image as an artist - but couldn't create anything that resembled this image. need to explore more.

[jwvanderbeck]

3.11.6. I'm 90% certain it is coming from m y install of insightface. If I could get it to compile locally like it wants it would probably just fix the issues

[johndpope]

try this pip install 'https://github.com/Gourieff/Assets/raw/main/Insightface/insightface-0.7.3-cp311-cp311-win_amd64.whl'

or attempt to get this module to install https://github.com/Gourieff/comfyui-reactor-node

[jwvanderbeck]

Installing from that wheel at least gets me a new error so that's progress :D

[jwvanderbeck]

Ahh looking at files on disk I believe my downloads of the onnx models were corrupoted. I will redownload them.

[jwvanderbeck]

try this pip install 'https://github.com/Gourieff/Assets/raw/main/Insightface/insightface-0.7.3-cp311-cp311-win_amd64.whl'

Thank you! That wheel was exactly what I needed. With that I got it all working!

[jwvanderbeck]

I will note for people who might be getting "safety check" errors. Someone correct me if I'm wrong but it seems to only work using SDXL based models?

[johndpope]

for now, yep.

fyi there's an pytorch2 hotfix upstream that may speed up things (can't tell). https://github.com/InstantID/InstantID/commit/abbb3646d171a5d37ae4b087443684ce7e0d16e1

[hany-cmd]

Why is it so slow? I have to wait 15 minutes for it to finish 50 steps * Rtx 3080

[jwvanderbeck]

It might be that onnx is using CPU. I am having that issue and can't figure out why. That said it is still nowhere near as slow as what you are saying.

[PublicPrompts]

@jwvanderbeck how did you fix the [ONNXRuntimeError] : 7 : INVALID_PROTOBUF : Load model from F:\Generative Art Tools\ComfyUI\custom_nodes\ComfyUI-InstantID\models\antelopev2\1k3d68.onnx failed:Protobuf parsing failed.

[jwvanderbeck]

Yeah I just redownloaded all the antelopev2 models

oh that's it. i redownloaded the onnx from here https://huggingface.co/DIAMONIK7777/antelopev2/tree/main thanks!

[camoody1]

I wonder why these files in the antelopev2 folder keep getting overwritten with the broken 1kb version. I had this node working last night, and when I tried again today, it was broken. I checked these files, and they were back to the 1kb versions. I had to redownload the correct files. That's frustrating.

[jwvanderbeck]

Because they are in the repo.

Makes sense. I guess the owner if this repo just doesn't care enough to make his work user friendly. I'm hoping for a better made version of InstantID soon.

[jwvanderbeck]

No need to be so harsh. A lot of times people do this for themself first and then just share it with others that want to jump in. They have no obligation. Would you have been happier if they just kept it to themself?

@jwvanderbeck I probably would be, actually. 😂 I've spent three nights trying to get this to work and still haven't been able to get an image out of it.

[udappk]

I had this node working last night, and when I tried again today, it was broken.

@camoody1 Same, It was working prefect and today after an update, it stopped working until replaced by newly redownloaded onnx. But still instantID is a must have, Results are amazing!

[camoody1]

So, I was finally able to get some images out of this workflow after a LOT of memory and node struggles. And while the faces truly are amazing in stylized images, I have to say, the photorealistic image quality is really quite poor. Even with the Style set to "none" and my prompt including "raw photo, 8k uhd, ultra-detailed", the output looks blurry and grainy. I can convert the image to a latent, upscale it and then run it through a KSampler to make it come out gorgeous, but that totally removes the face likeness that is the whole point of the process. I'm not sure what is happening with the code behind the scenes, but if you're looking to produce a high-quality, photorealistic image, IPAdapter is still the better option.
