How knowledgable do you need to be to tweak and train this locally ?

I spent two days trying to train a LoRa customization on top of Flux 1 dev on Windows with my RTX 4090 but can’t make it work and I don’t know how deep into this topic and python library I need to study. Are there scripts kiddies in this game or only experts ?



Just use https://github.com/bghira/SimpleTuner

I was able to run this script to train a Lora myself without spending any time learning the underlying python libraries.


Well thank you I will test that


SimpleTuner is dependant on Microsoft's DeepSpeed which doesnt work on Windows :)

So you probably better off using Ai-ToolKit https://github.com/ostris/ai-toolkit


OneTrainer would be another “easy” option.


The open-source model is not released yet, but it definitely won't be any easier than training a LoRA on Flux 1 Dev.


Damn, I’m just too lazy to learn skills that will be outdated in 6 months

I'm selectively lazy for sure. I'm working full time right now. Like, all the time except for sleep


It sounds you’re not lazy enough, that’s not healthy longer term.


It's normally easy to find it ore configured through comfyui.

Sometimes behind patreon if some YouTuber

Windows is mostly the issue, to really take advantage, you will need linux.


Even using WSL2 with Ubuntu isn't good enough ?


Nah, that’s fine. So is Windows for most tools.

The main thing is having 1. Good images with adequate captions and 2. Knowing what settings to use.

Number 2 is much harder because there’s a lot of bad information out there and the people who train a ton of Loras aren’t usually keen to share. Still, the various programs usually have some defaults that should be acceptable.
