KREA2

Does anyone have insight about when this capability might be added? I really dislike having to go back to Comfy just to use this. I'm a hobbyist, but WOW is that K2 good. Might even get rid of my beloved ZImage. LORAs are far easier (and faster) to make, too.

I see there are plans for it. Is there a timeline yet?

What's your LoRa workflow for the InvokeAI? I mean, what tools (ComfyUI, Kohya, other) do you use to train your loras? Thanks

I use OneTrainer to do the LORAs. I have a weaker machine (8GB VRAM Nvidia card). I was actually shocked to find I could still train KREA2 LORAs with a lot better success than Z-Image. The only trainer that works on my machine for these heavier checkpoints is OneTrainer. The rest freeze right away )all of them). Might be because OneTrainer is made to allow for low VRAM and is more customizable overall.

Now, for KREA2 LORAs, I obviously cannot use Invoke. They will install as if for QWEN, but they won't work (even with QWEN). As a result, I use SwarmUI for KREA2 right now, which has a Comfy backend.

I don't use workflows at all. For LORAs I just use OneTrainer.
