Setup
After installing the appropriate add-on ZIP file, enable the add-on and expand it's preferences. There you will find further instructions for setup.

Local Generation
To setup local generation, you will need a model checkpoint file, such as:

• Stable Diffusion v1.4
  
  
  
  • Download the file sd-v1-4.ckpt, and import it in the add-on preferences
    
    
  
  
  
  
• Stable Diffusion v1.5
  
  
  
  • Download the file v1-5-pruned-emaonly.ckpt, and import it in the add-on preferences
    
    
  
  
  
  
• Fine-tuned model
  
  
  
  • Other fine-tuned models compatible with Stable Diffusion can be imported as well.
    
    
  
  
  
  

DreamStudio Generation
To setup DreamStudio integration, find your API key and enter it in the add-on preferences.

Render Pass Color Management
Color Management settings are now correctly applied when using the Dream Textures render pass. This change is automatically applied, and ensures results match between manual runs of Dream Textures and automated runs via the render pass.

Advanced Presets
Choose defaults and create your own presets for advanced configuration.

File Batch and Iterations
Use a text file to run multiple prompts in a row, and set Iterations above 1 to try multiple seeds without interacting with the UI.

Init Image Redesign and Outpainting
The redesigned "Source Image" panel makes manipulating images easier to use. Various bugs regarding the "Mark Inpaint Area" brush have been resolved. Outpainting allows images to be extended beyond their original size. The "Prompt" mask source when inpainting allows you to choose a region to inpaint with a simple text prompt instead of a manual alpha-channel mask.

Asymmetric Tiling
Tile along a single axis, or both for the original behavior. This can give interesting results for images such as infinitely scrolling backgrounds, decals, and more.

DreamStudio Integration
Connect your DreamStudio account to generate in the cloud. This is optional, and separate lighter builds with the DreamStudio backend only are provided for users with incompatible hardware.

Model Switching
Import multiple models and switch between them quickly to experiment with fine-tuned and updated checkpoints.
