🔆 New Features/Updates

• ✅ 02/09/2025 HelloMemeV3 is now available. YouTube Demo

• ✅ 12/17/2024 Support modelscope (Modelscope Demo).

• ✅ 12/08/2024 Added HelloMemeV2 (select "v2" in the version option of the LoadHelloMemeImage/Video Node). Its features include: a. Improved expression consistency between the generated video and the driving video. b. Better compatibility with third-party checkpoints. c. Reduced VRAM usage. YouTube Demo

• ✅ 11/29/2024 a.Optimize the algorithm; b.Add VAE selection functionality; c.Introduce a super-resolution feature. YouTube Demo

• ✅ 11/14/2024 Added the HMControlNet2 module, which uses the PD-FGC motion module to extract facial expression information (drive_exp2); restructured the ComfyUI interface; and optimized VRAM usage. YouTube Demo

• ✅ 11/12/2024 Added a newly fine-tuned version of Animatediff with a patch size of 12, which uses less VRAM (Tested on 2080Ti).

• ✅ 11/11/2024 ~~Optimized VRAM usage and added HMVideoSimplePipeline (workflows/hellomeme_video_simple_workflow.json), which doesn’t use Animatediff and can run on machines with less than 12G VRAM.~~

• ✅ 11/6/2024 The face proportion in the reference image significantly affects the generation quality. We have encapsulated the recommended image cropping method used during training into a CropReferenceImage Node. Refer to the workflows in the ComfyUI_HelloMeme/workflows directory: hellomeme_video_cropref_workflow.json and hellomeme_image_cropref_workflow.json.

Introduction

This repository is the official implementation of the HelloMeme ComfyUI interface, featuring both image and video generation functionalities. Example workflow files can be found in the ComfyUI_HelloMeme/workflows directory. Test images and videos are saved in the ComfyUI_HelloMeme/examples directory. Below are screenshots of the interfaces for image and video generation.

[!Note] Custom models should be placed in the directories listed below.
