1.6.0-RC

on GitHub

Features:

• refiner support #12371
• add NV option for Random number generator source setting, which allows to generate same pictures on CPU/AMD/Mac as on NVidia videocards
• add style editor dialog
• hires fix: add an option to use a different checkpoint for second pass (#12181)
• option to keep multiple loaded models in memory (#12227)
• new samplers: Restart, DPM++ 2M SDE Exponential, DPM++ 2M SDE Heun, DPM++ 2M SDE Heun Karras, DPM++ 2M SDE Heun Exponential, DPM++ 3M SDE, DPM++ 3M SDE Karras, DPM++ 3M SDE Exponential (#12300, #12519, #12542)
• rework DDIM, PLMS, UniPC to use CFG denoiser same as in k-diffusion samplers:
  • makes all of them work with img2img
  • makes prompt composition posssible (AND)
  • makes them available for SDXL
• always show extra networks tabs in the UI (#11808)
• use less RAM when creating models (#11958, #12599)
• textual inversion inference support for SDXL
• extra networks UI: show metadata for SD checkpoints
• checkpoint merger: add metadata support
• prompt editing and attention: add support for whitespace after the number ([ red : green : 0.5 ]) (seed breaking change) (#12177)
• VAE: allow selecting own VAE for each checkpoint (in user metadata editor)

• change default behavior for batching cond/uncond -- now it's on by default, and is disabled by an UI setting (Optimizatios -> Batch cond/uncond) - if you are on lowvram/medvram and are getting OOM exceptions, you will need to enable it
• show current position in queue and make it so that requests are processed in the order of arrival (#12707)
• add --medvram-sdxl flag that only enables --medvram for SDXL models
• prompt editing timeline has separate range for first pass and hires-fix pass (seed breaking change) (#12457)

• zoom and pan: option to auto-expand a wide image, improved integration (#12413, #12727)
• option to cache Lora networks in memory

• change quicksettings items to have variable width
• Lora: add Norm module, add support for bias (#12503)
