While you guys are training Flux, I'm experiencing the interesting features of PonyRealism 2.1 under Prodigy. (I see that the Flux training is still being tweaked at Kohya, so I'll wait.) It turns out that the SDXL rule of only training Unet doesn't apply here, because then the finished Lora will only look a little like the person. However, if I train normally (i.e. without the --network_train_unet_only switch), I'm already on target. By using the 'fp8 base training' switch I can weaken the strength of the model a bit, i.e. sometimes it can come in handy in achieving a more accurate Lora. Without fp8, the Lora is stronger, so the d_coef switch needs to be reduced.
