Yes, you can use either of those ComfyUU photomaker nodes. The install is not straightforward but it works for me.

The latest release of the nodes work pretty well... I am getting great results using them. Example and workflow used:   This workflow make use of IPAdapter and reactor...

I agree... the current implementation of PhotoMaker does not land itself to use a model loaded using the standard "Load Checkpoint"... I would be nice if this could be made...

Was reading the code and apparently it can take a state dic as a model instead of a file path... so maybe if we provide a model as an input...

I suggest opening an issue with kohya_ss in his repo as he is the one maintaining the behind the scene code. I only wrap his script in a GUI: https://github.com/kohya-ss/sd-scripts

You should submit a PR to Koby’s in his sd-scripts repo to fix it for good.

Yeah, so many thing. A break down within the software stack… This was the best thing to do. Glad it fixed thing for you.

I might add an input validator and log a message if it does not match the expected pattern

I noticed that the non Diffuser implementation is not as "strong" as the original PhotoMaker code. It tend to fade away on longer prompt... I will try the latest version...

Here is a side by side comp:  As you can see, somehow, the non diffuser likeness is very low... I am using the same CKPT as the diffuser version...
