Better layout, smarter notes, new nodes, and actual learning baked in.
π Scroll down and grab everything. Itβs free and itβs better.
π§ Improvements Since v1
This version isnβt just about results. Itβs about understanding ComfyUI. Every update is based on real use, feedback, and making sure this workflow actually teaches you. Here's what's new:
Reorganized node layout and wires for clarity
Added How to Use and Cheat Sheet sections
Upgraded all markdown for better note readability
New node: Scale Image to Total Megapixels (SDXL-safe resizing)
New node: ImageCompositeMasked. No more quality degradation when inpainting.
π₯ SDXL Mega v1.5 Has It All
Want to skip straight to the power? The Mega v1.5 workflow stacks level 1 and 2 in one place, adds powerful exclusives, and includes a full auto-installer to get you running in minutes
Mega Exclusives
Just look:

Face Swap and Face Restore work wonders π
One-Click Installer
Downloads every model (theres a lot for Mega). Installs/updates my custom nodes. Fully dummy-proof.

An upscale model is needed for this level as well:
ADetailer models:
face_yolov8m.pt β models/ultralytics/bbox/
hand_yolov8s.pt β models/ultralytics/bbox/
SAM model (for inpainting and mask-based features):
sam_vit_b_01ec64.pth β models/sams/

π§° Step 3: Download the Workflow Files

I built this solo. It took a lot of time, testing, rewriting, frustration. I want to keep making stuff like this, but I literally canβt do it without support. If this helped you, consider subscribing to the Power Users tier. It genuinely keeps this going. π

Updated the discord link. If that is the only thing not working I wouldn't worry about it too much but you are welcome to hop into the discord to try to figure out why if you are determined. π

Discrod link is broken. I cant make florence2 to work, even when installed. (zluda windows install for amd)

Add a load Lora node (or power Lora loader three) and intercept where the model goes to the ksampler and where the clip goes to the prompt boxes. I didn't include one because my hyper3d inpainting model probably won't handle loras well and the second pass doesn't have much to work with. But it's worth a try if you wanna tinker.
gibrid
how to include lora in inpainting?

Mega Lite is a trimmed version. No one-click installer, missing groups like face swap/face restore/revision, and skips QoL stuff like fast travel. Power Users get the full version + weekly guides unless Iβm doing a big drop (like Mega Flux this Saturday).

How do the Mega Lite Workflows differ from the regular Mega Workflows? I.e., Supporter vs Power User

At the bottom of the post. One other person didn't see it there for some reason but I know a fix so let me know
Andrey Bobrov
