โ๏ธ Quick Start Guide
Install the latest Kijai WanVideoWrapper custom nodes. *This needs to be installed manually. You can get the latest version by following these instructions:
For new installations:
In "ComfyUI/custom_nodes" folder
open command prompt (CMD) and run this command:
git clone https://github.com/kijai/ComfyUI-WanVideoWrapper.git
for updating previous installation:
In "ComfyUI/custom_nodes/ComfyUI-WanVideoWrapper" folder
open command prompt (CMD) and run this command: git pull
Download and place the Phantom-Wan1_3B safetensors file in the diffusion_models folder in ComfyUI.
Load the Phantom Wan 2.1 workflow
Install missing nodes: https://github.com/kijai/ComfyUI-KJNodes
Set your models, reference image options, and addons
Drag in reference images + enter your prompt
Click generate and review results!
๐ก Important Notes
The reference images are used as a strong guidance (try to describe your reference image in your prompt)
Works especially well for characters, fashion, objects, and backgrounds
LoRA implementation does not seem to work with this model, yet we've included it in the workflow as LoRAs may work in a future update.
Different Seed values make a huge difference in generation results. Some characters may be duplicated and changing the seed value will help.
Settings are optimized but feel free to adjust CFG and steps based on speed and results.
๐ธ Weโve included example generations and their prompts in this post so you can see the magic in action! (GIFS are compressed to fit online)

rmbg, error in image processing 'background_color'

For some reason my results always end up looking weird and no where near as good as this. Example, faces and features of the reference images can end up looking very different from what they are in the picture. Do you have any tips for me to get more consistent and better results?
