- 🖌️ To begin, ensure you have a computer with at least 6GB of VRAM and an OS like Linux or Windows, with experimental support for Mac.
- 📦 Install Creer, which can be done through a single click in the Linux software store or via the Creer website.
- 🔄 Check the version of Creer, with 5.2.1 being the current release and the recommended version.
- 📱 Navigate to settings to find the resources folder, which is where the plugin will be unzipped.
- 🔌 Download the plugin from the GitHub page and place it into the resources folder.
- 🔄 Enable the plugin through the Python plugin manager in Creer settings and restart the application.
- 🖼️ Start with a new image at 512 by 640, a reasonable size for both stable diffusion and image generation speed.
- 🔧 Configure the Docker to connect to a local server managed by the Creer plugin, which will download everything needed for use.
- 🔄 If you already have comfy UI installed, choose to connect to an external server local or remote.
- 👾 Use control nets in real time to adjust and manipulate the generated image, such as adding character poses.
- 🎭 Experiment with free-form scribbling without prompts to see how the AI interprets your drawings.
