FLUX-merged_lightning-v1

This repository provides the merged params for black-forest-labs/FLUX.1-dev and black-forest-labs/FLUX.1-schnell originally provided by @sayakpaul.

The base model was then fused with a selection of LoRAs, some of which are NSFW in nature. Please use responsibily. Please be aware of the licenses of both the models before using the params commercially.

This model was created as part of the ongoing OpenSight project, mostly for dataset generation and evaluation purposes.

The following context provided by sayakpaul, of the original merged model.

Changelog:

• 7 April 2025 - Just noticed a potential mistake when loading some components (particularly the text_encoder2), feel free to load from the base dev folder, works the same as it is a merge.
