| ranked rather than measured against a fixed rate, because this base model | |

| Stacks with others not stated | |
| The author gave no chaining guidance. The rules below are the | |
| general Qwen-Image ones, not anything specific to this LoRA. | |
| General Qwen-Image rules that apply here (see REFERENCE.txt): | |
| β’ Stack by wiring LoraLoaderModelOnly nodes in series on the MODEL line. | |
| This is the officially shipped pattern: | |
| template_qwen_Image_2512_360_lora chains Qwen- | |
| Image-2512-Lightning-4steps-V1.0-fp32 at 1.0 into | |
| qwen-360-diffusion-2512-int8-bf16-v2 at 1.0. | |
| β’ One accelerator LoRA maximum. Every official template loads exactly one | |
| Lightning/Turbo LoRA, and ComfyUI's Qwen-Image docs record that the | |
| fully-distilled checkpoint and the lightx2v 8-step LoRA are not usable | |
| together. | |
| β’ Match the accelerator to the checkpoint family: Qwen- | |
| Image-2512-Lightning on 2512, Qwen-Image-Lightning on the August base, | |
| the Edit-2509 subfolder LoRAs on Edit-2509, Qwen-Image- | |
| Edit-2511-Lightning on Edit-2511. lightx2v distilled and shipped these | |
| separately per family. | |
| β’ When any accelerator LoRA is in the chain, move the sampler to that | |
| LoRA's step count and cfg 1.0. Leaving cfg at 4.0 with a distilled LoRA | |
| is the most common bad-output cause. | |
| β’ Order used by the official templates: accelerator LoRA adjacent to the | |
| base loader, concept/style LoRA after it, then ModelSamplingAuraFlow, | |
| then the sampler (the 360-panorama template's exact order). | |
| β’ Keep the summed strength of concept/style LoRAs roughly in the 0.9-1.2 | |
| band (CivitAI article 18798). The accelerator LoRA sits outside that | |
| budget at its own 1.0. | |
| β’ Control LoRAs (qwen_image_union_diffsynth_lora.safetensors) chain like | |
| ordinary LoRAs and combine with an accelerator: the official 'Qwen- | |
| Image Union Control' template stacks the control LoRA with Qwen-Image- | |
| Lightning-4steps-V1.0, both at 1.0, sampling at 4 steps / cfg 1.0 / | |
| shift 3.1. | |
| β’ Be conservative stacking older Edit LoRAs on Edit-2511: the Qwen README | |
| says community LoRA effects were merged into the 2511 base, so those | |
| LoRAs can double-apply. | |
| β’ The dominant family is Qwen-Image-Lightning by lightx2v / ModelTC | |
| (github.com/ModelTC/Qwen-Image-Lightning), CFG-distilled LoRAs released | |
| per checkpoint family. 2512 Lightning files are 0.85 GB in bf16 and | |
| 1.70 GB in fp32 - high-rank LoRAs, not small ones. Repo layout | |
| (verified against the HF file listings): lightx2v/Qwen-Image-Lightning | |
| holds the T2I LoRAs (4steps-V1.0, 4steps-V2.0, 8steps-V1.0, | |
| 8steps-V1.1, 8steps-V2.0, each also in -bf16), a Qwen-Image-fp8-e4m3fn- | |
| Lightning-4steps-V1.0 distilled against the naive fp8 base, the | |
| original Qwen-Image-Edit Lightning 4/8-step files, an Edit-2509 s | |
| β’ The author never states which weight family this targets. Mismatch is | |
| silent degradation, essentially never a hard error. Every Qwen-Image | |
| weight family resolves to the same ComfyUI model class | |
| (comfy.model_base.QwenImage, unet_config image_model "qwen_image", | |
| latent_format Wan21, built-in sampling shift 1.15 - | |

| Mismatch is silent degradation, essentially never a hard error. Every Qwen- | |
| Image weight family resolves to the same ComfyUI model class | |
| (comfy.model_base.QwenImage, unet_config image_model "qwen_image", | |
| latent_format Wan21, built-in sampling shift 1.15 - | |
| comfy/supported_models.py), and the bf16/fp8 file sizes are identical | |
| across Qwen-Image, Qwen-Image-2512, Qwen-Image-Edit, Edit-2509 and | |
| Edit-2511. So a LoRA trained on any of them will key-match and load against | |
| any other. Where keys genuinely do not match, ComfyUI only logs `lora key | |
| not loaded: <key>` (comfy/lora.py:93) and continues; a shape mismatch logs | |
| `WARNING SHAPE MISMATCH <key> WEIGHT NOT MERGED` (comfy/lora.py:498) and | |
| skips that tensor. Both are console warnings; the render still completes. | |
| Verified consequence: lightx2v re-distilled and re-released Lightning | |
| weights separately for Qwen-Image, Qwen-Image-Edit, Edit-2509, Edit-2511 | |
| and Qwen-Image-2512, so accelerators are family- specific in practice. The | |
| one documented case worse than mild degradation is precision-level, not | |
| family-level: bf16-trained LoRAs on the naive | |
| qwen_image_fp8_e4m3fn.safetensors base produce grid artifacts, stated | |
| outright in the ModelTC/Qwen-Image-Lightning README. Whether an Edit LoRA | |
| on the T2I base merely no-ops (no ref_latents conditioning is supplied) or | |
| a T2I LoRA on an Edit checkpoint transfers as a style push is inference | |
| from the architecture, not a sourced statement - see unverified. | |

| HOW TO USE (COMFYUI) | |
| βββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββ | |
| 1. Update ComfyUI first - Qwen-Image support is native, but each new family | |
| member (Edit-2509, Edit-2511, 2512) needed a fresh release, so an old build | |
| will not detect the checkpoint. | |
| 2. Put the base checkpoint in `ComfyUI/models/diffusion_models/` - e.g. | |
| `qwen_image_2512_fp8_e4m3fn.safetensors` (20.43 GB, the file the official | |
| 2512 template names) or `qwen_image_2512_bf16.safetensors` (40.86 GB), from | |
| huggingface.co/Comfy-Org/Qwen-Image_ComfyUI/split_files/diffusion_models. | |
| Edit checkpoints come from Comfy-Org/Qwen-Image-Edit_ComfyUI. Load with | |
| `Load Diffusion Model` (UNETLoader), not a checkpoint loader - these are | |
| unet-only files. | |
| 3. Put `qwen_2.5_vl_7b_fp8_scaled.safetensors` (9.38 GB) in | |
| `ComfyUI/models/text_encoders/` and load with `Load CLIP` (CLIPLoader), | |
| type `qwen_image`. Every official template uses exactly this pair. | |
| 4. Put `qwen_image_vae.safetensors` in `ComfyUI/models/vae/` and load with | |
| `Load VAE`. | |
| 5. Put LoRA `.safetensors` in `ComfyUI/models/loras/`. Subfolders show up | |
| as `subfolder/name.safetensors` in the dropdown - useful for separating t2i | |
| / edit / accelerator LoRAs. | |
| 6. Load with `LoraLoaderModelOnly`, patching only the MODEL line between | |
| the UNETLoader and ModelSamplingAuraFlow. Every official Comfy-Org Qwen | |
| template uses LoraLoaderModelOnly; the two-output `LoraLoader` also works | |
| but its CLIP branch is a no-op for DiT-only LoRAs. | |
| 7. Insert `ModelSamplingAuraFlow` after the LoRA chain. Use 3.1 for T2I and | |
| Edit-2511, 3.0 for the 2-step Turbo and Edit-2509 templates. Without this | |
| node ComfyUI uses the model's built-in shift of 1.15 and results differ | |
| from every published example. | |
| 8. Set KSampler to euler / simple / denoise 1.0, then steps+cfg per the | |
| accelerator (50/4.0 plain, 8/1.0 or 4/1.0 with Lightning, 2/1.0 with the | |
| 2-step Turbo). Latent from `EmptySD3LatentImage` at an official resolution. | |
| 9. Low-VRAM alternative: the `ComfyUI-GGUF` custom node with `Unet Loader | |
| (GGUF)` and a Qwen-Image/2512 GGUF (unsloth/Qwen-Image-2512-GGUF). LoRA | |
| loading still goes through LoraLoaderModelOnly, placed after the GGUF | |
| loader. | |
| 10. For Edit workflows, swap CLIPTextEncode for `TextEncodeQwenImageEdit` | |
| (single image) or `TextEncodeQwenImageEditPlus` (2509/2511) and add a | |
| `CFGNorm` node as the Edit-2511 template does; the LoRA chain sits in the | |
| same place. | |
