I have two questions about DreamBooth training: 1. Is it possible to install Super (super resolution

Hello Furkan,
Here is JP. I recently contacted you on YouTube to report a difficulty that I have performing a with Dreambooth Flux training with Kohya and you suggested to contact you through discord, thus here I am. Let me just first say that I really appreciate what you are doing here for all of us noobs interested in AI creation. I am a 60 years old doctoral program manager (with also several PhD students coming from Turkey!) in chemistry and I only discovered recently this interesting area of AI picture creation. How fascinating! But without your great tutorials, I would certainly not manage! I watch them again and again until I finally manage to solve my problems.

Coming to the latest problem, I do not manage to create any Flux dreambooth with your Kohya installation on my PC, unfortunately. I was already successful with Kohya Flux Lora trainings, also with OT Finetuning SDXL trainings, all loca trainings on my PC, but now there seem to be a problem (crash) at the moment Kohya wants to save the first safesensors file. I am running the training on a RTX4080 super with 16GB VRAM (could not afford more, unfortunately), choose your 16GB config (which leads to a VRAM usage of about 14,4 GB, shared usage of 18,3/31.5). Speed is approximately 5s/it, which is ok, I think. I tried with different number of steps (200, 100 ….down to much less), had started with 124 pics (1 repeat), am now down to 15 to for testing purpose. Everything goes fine until Kohya tries to save the first intermediate epoch/safetensor file. Then it crashes, terminates the training, as if it could not save the file. I tried to have it saved at many different places, it makes no difference. Could it be that the size is too big? As already mentioned, I had no problem with the Kohya Flux Loras and OT SDXL Finetunings.

When Kohya tries to save the first safetensors file, it does not say anything, but just crashes. My screen goes dark for a couple of minute. Then I can again check what happened. The console says that the training has ended. I can end you the full log, if you want to try to see what happened. It starts with “--- Logging error ---
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\Python310\lib\logging__init.py", line 1104, in emit
self.flush()
File "C:\Python310\lib\logging__init.py", line 1084, in flush
self.stream.flush()
OSError: [Errno 22] Invalid argument
Call stack:

etc. “

Following the advices of ChatGPT, I check for critical errors in the “Windows Event Viewer Logs“ and found indeed several ones at the time of the crash. I can send you the evtx file, if it helps. I also looked into the “reliability monitor” and there you can also see warnings and application failures at the crash time. What can be the reason?!
Thanks for your help in advance!

and tell me where to find kaggle code? my main task is to make a photo of the generation with the face of a real person, but replace the body with another. Is there an option how to do this? gpt chat tells me that I should do a full training of dreambooth, then somehow place it in 3D, longer modify or replace the body. What do you advise? Also, I will need generations without censorship (18+)

P

ProRostOP•3/20/25, 2:25 PM

but based on this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FvpWy1x5etM I concluded that Flax Fal Fine tuning has much better detailing. If you compare SDXL and SD 1.5, the XL version will win in detailing by a lot. Honestly, I am very grateful for your work and contribution to the development of neural networks.

Hi everyone and @Furkan Gözükara SECourses
I have a paired dataset with images before and after retouching (color correction, defect removal on face and body, skin color amelioration). I want to train a generative model to automate this process at scale.

Would Pix2Pix (GANs) be the best choice, or are diffusion models, flux , vision transformers, or other supervised methods better for high-fidelity, production-ready retouching?

Looking for insights on the most effective approach. Thanks!

Hi @Furkan Gözükara SECourses ,

I need some advice as I have been struggling with Lora training for a product. I tried with and without captions (without was worse).

Problems I'm Facing

Trigger words don't work consistently. For example, if I use "KOKUMKF2512NVYP2," sometimes I get some kind of device (see trigger_word_image) and sometimes a dress but with different colors and the same pattern.
When I use prompts where I explain the dress and background, I get a blue dress, but each time the dress color appears in different shades.
Hands are distorted a lot.
When I prompt it to generate on different body types, it doesn't work.

## What I Have Tried So Far

No Caption Lora:

batch_size: 2
steps: 4000

Captioned Lora (see screenshot for dataset):

batch_size: 2
steps: 3500
sample caption: a person seated on a wooden chair against a dark gray paneled wall. The background is simple with wooden flooring visible. The model is wearing KOKUMKF2512NVYP2 with a KOKUMKF2512NVYP2DUPATTA draped across their lap and extending to the floor. The model is accessorized with pearl-like earrings, bracelets, and embellished footwear. Their hands are positioned casually, with one resting on their lap and the other on the arm of the wooden chair. The setting appears to be an indoor studio environment with minimalist decor, highlighting the seated figure against the contrasting background.

Thank you so much for doing amazing research and sharing with us. And Sorry for the little long message I just want to share as much detail as possible. And is full finetuning is a good choice for this specific use case or not?

Here is some more details:

For the dataset:
Dress: 16 images
Model/Person: 9 headshot images generated by comfy consistent character workflow

I also tried using both lora (dress and person) to create images in SwarmUI but results are disappointing. The major importance for me is to get the pattern of dress, color of dress and person wearing wearing that dress. Please let me know If you need any other details. Please guide me to the right direction. Thanks again

@Furkan Gözükara SECourses hey, really enjoyed your videos.

would appreciate a deep-dive comparing the following methods:

full dreambooth on flux (extremely memory intensive)
dreambooth lora on flux
full dreambooth on flux + then extract the lora via SVD
plain flux lora
plan flux full finetune

Yes. All images are 1024. The config is 24GB_GPU_22900MB_7.3_second_it_Tier_1.

Mentioning this because I think it's strange. I am noticing when I add the preset to kohya preset nothing changes. I have to go through and manually change everything. and when I save the config. It doesn't save. refreshing the browser will erase all data.

I have 200gb storage, 30 gb of local storage like you say in the video.
