invoke-ai/InvokeAI v5.3.0rc1

on GitHub

This release candidate includes a number of enhancements and fixes. Standouts include:

• Support for FLUX IP Adapters.
• Auto-masking in Canvas (via Segment Anything).
• Installer improvements, which should resolve all xformers-related issues.
• Improved FLUX support for MPS (Apple Silicon) devices.

Be sure to review the v5 release notes if you haven't already upgraded to v5.

FLUX IP Adapters

We now support XLabs FLUX IP Adapters. There's only the one model right now, which we've added to the starter models.

Workflow & Input Image	Output

Internally, IP Adapter requires CFG to work. For now, this is only exposed via workflows. Negative conditioning is also now available in workflows. We're exploring a sane way to expose this in the linear UI.

Negative conditioning requires a CFG value >1. Leave CFG at 1 to disable it and ignore negative conditioning.

Note: CFG doubles denoising time, and negative conditioning requires a good additional chunk of VRAM.

Canvas Auto-Masking

Use auto-mask to quickly extract objects from a layer. Create foreground, background, or neutral points to fine-tune the masking.

Internally, this uses Segment Anything v1. We'll upgrade to SAM v2 once support for it lands in transformers.
