>>2761203I'm no expert on merging, but from what I understand, SD2.1 is different enough from Anything type models to be a headache especially when trying a method like weighted sum. Some kind anon has written a block merging tutorial that you might want to look into:
https://rentry.org/BlockMergeExplained>>2761200>Do you stick to one seed on your batches?No. -1 and I check the option to keep -1 on everything generated by the XYZ
>is it just sampler/steps/CFG as your axesI usually use different models as my Z axis and sampler, steps, or CFG on X and Y.
For example I'll do something like
batch: 6
X (sampler): euler a, dpm++ sde karras
Y (CFG): 6, 8, 10
Z (Checkpoint name): anything-v3.0, anything-v4.5, AbyssOrangeMix3, AbyssOrangeMix3-A1, g-anonmix
And that will crunch for an hour or two. I also have live previews enabled so that if I check up on it I can easily see if it's gone off in the weeds and is making junk.
