Tips

Use a LoRA weight of 0.7 but feel free to adjust it.

If results appear washed out and bland, try increasing the CFG value.

You can merge this LoRA into a checkpoint for more convenient use without loading LoRA separately.

The LoRA enables generation at fewer steps with improved results but does not itself speed up generation.

Works with any SDXL or similar checkpoints.

Version Highlights

dmd2_sdxl_4step_lora

dmd2_sdxl_4step_lora_fp32

This is the official DMD2 implementation LoRA from the Improved Distribution Matching Distillation for Fast Image Synthesis paper.

dmd2_sdxl_4step_lora

Original model at Huggingface tianweiy/DMD2.

Steps: 8

LoRA weight: 0.7

Sampler: LCM

Scheduler: Normal, Simple

CFG: 1.4 - 1.8

I use similar settings on both a low resolution base image, and the upscaled refinement pass (hires fix).

Usage

Load the LoRA like any other. I recommend a weight of 0.7, but feel free to play around.

You should be able to use it with any SDXL or similar checkpoint. Use the settings above.

You can also merge this into a checkpoint and save that, to include the result of the LoRA into the checkpoint directly. This means you no longer need to load this as a LoRA, and you can still use it with LCM and low steps for good result.

The LoRA itself doesn't add any speed improvement, it just allows you to generate at fewer steps, with better result.

If the results are washed out and bland, try increasing the CFG.
