Stable Diffusion , Automatic1111 Guide

Hello! This guide explains how to install Stable Diffusion with the Automatic1111 web interface. Stable Diffusion is an image generation model. Automatic1111 is an open-source project that allows us to use it easily with a web interface.

Things You Need to Know:

• Python and Git must be installed on your system.
• Nvidia is the recommended GPU. It can also run with AMD.
• Stable Diffusion does not work with AMD GPUs on Windows.
• To run Stable Diffusion with an AMD GPU, you must use Arch Linux or Arch Linux based distributions.

Installation for Windows (Nvidia)

Installation:

1. Download the sd-webui.zip file from here.
2. Extract it to any location.
3. To update the web interface, double-click update.bat.
4. Then, to run the web interface, double-click run.bat. It will start downloading the necessary files. Once everything is downloaded, you will see the message Running on local URL: http://127.0.0.1:7860.

Automatic Installation for Windows (Nvidia)

Installation:

1. Open your terminal in any folder and type git clone https://github.com/AUTOMATIC1111/stable-diffusion-webui.git and press Enter.
2. Then double-click webui-user.bat to run it.

Installation for Linux (AMD)

Installation:

1. Open your terminal and run the command: git clone https://github.com/lshqqytiger/stable-diffusion-webui-directml && cd stable-diffusion-webui-directml && git submodule init && git submodule update.
2. Then run webui-user.bat.
3. If you have 4-6GB VRAM, add COMMANDLINE_ARGS=--opt-sub-quad-attention --lowvram --disable-nan-check to webui-user.bat.

Automatic Installation for Linux (Nvidia)

Installation: Step 1: First, install these according to your distribution:

• For Debian-based distributions: sudo apt install wget git python3 python3-venv libgl1 libglib2.0-0
• For Red-Hat-based distributions: sudo dnf install wget git python3 gperftools-libs libglvnd-glx
• For OpenSUSE-based distributions: sudo zypper install wget git python3 libtcmalloc4 libglvnd
• For Arch-based distributions: sudo pacman -S wget git python3

Step 2: Open your terminal and run the command: wget -q https://raw.githubusercontent.com/AUTOMATIC1111/stable-diffusion-webui/master/webui.sh. Then run webui.sh.

Stable Diffusion Plugins to Check Out

• OpenPose Editor: Copies the position of a character/person in an image and generates it with your prompt, recommended to use with ControlNET.
• QR Code Generator: A QR Code generator for ControlNET.
• Dreambooth: An advanced model trainer.

There are many more plugins, but I recommend checking these out.

Where to Find AI Models?

• CivitAI
• Hugging Face

This guide was that much. I hope I was able to help. If I did, I’m glad :slight_smile:. If you encounter any issues during the download process, you can write under this post and check Automatic1111’s GitHub page.
