Native InstantID support for ComfyUI.
This extension differs from the many already available as it doesn't use diffusers but instead implements InstantID natively and it fully integrates with ComfyUI.
Please note this still could be considered beta stage, looking forward to your feedback.
In the examples directory you'll find some basic workflows.
Upgrade ComfyUI to the latest version! ComfyUI required a small update to work with InstantID that was pushed recently.
Download or git clone this repository into the ComfyUI/custom_nodes/ directory. I guess the Manager will soon have this added to the list.
InstantID requires insightface, you need to add it to your libraries together with onnxruntime and onnxruntime-gpu.
The InsightFace model is antelopev2 (not the classic buffalo_l). Download the models (for example from here or here) and place them in the ComfyUI/models/insightface/models/antelopev2 directory.
The main model can be downloaded from HuggingFace and should be placed into the ComfyUI/models/instantid directory. (Note that the model is called ip_adapter as it is based on the IPAdapter models).
You also needs a controlnet, place it in the ComfyUI controlnet directory.
Remember at the moment this is only for SDXL.
The training data is full of watermarks, to avoid them to show up in your generations use a resolution slightly different from 1024×1024 for example 1016×1016 works pretty well.
It's important to lower the CFG to at least 4/5 or you can use the RescaleCFG node.
It works very well with SDXL Turbo. Best results with community's checkpoints.
