Installation

Via ComfyUI Manager (Recommended)

Search for "Starnodes" in ComfyUI Manager and install

Manual Installation

1. Open CMD within your custom nodes folder
2. Run: git clone https://github.com/Starnodes2024/ComfyUI_StarNodes
3. Restart ComfyUI

Find the nodes under "⭐StarNodes" category or search for "star" in the node browser.

Wildcards

You will find the wildcards in the wildcards folder of your ComfyUI main folder. If you add your own just copy the new files to this location.

Wildcard Rules in the Star Wildcards Node

Basic Wildcard Syntax

• Wildcards are defined using double underscores: __wildcard_name__
• The node looks for text files in the wildcards folder of your ComfyUI installation
• When a wildcard is encountered, a random line from the corresponding text file is selected

Folder Structure

• Wildcards can be organized in subfolders
• To use a wildcard in a subfolder, use the syntax: folder\__wildcard_name__
• The system will look for the file at [ComfyUI base path]/wildcards/folder/wildcard_name.txt

Random Options

• You can use curly braces {} with pipe symbols | to choose randomly between options
• Example: {option1|option2|option3} will randomly select one of the options
• You can even include wildcards inside these options: {__wildcard1__|__wildcard2__}

Nested Wildcards

• Wildcards can be nested within other wildcards
• The system supports up to 10 levels of recursion to prevent infinite loops
• When a wildcard contains another wildcard, the nested wildcard is also processed

Seed Behavior

• The node takes a seed parameter that determines the randomization
• Each prompt input (1-7) uses a different seed offset to ensure variety
• Each wildcard within a prompt also gets a unique seed based on its position

Error Handling

• If a wildcard file doesn't exist, the wildcard name itself is used as text
• If a wildcard file exists but is empty, the wildcard name is used as fallback
• If there's an error processing a wildcard, it falls back to using the wildcard name

The Star Wildcards node allows you to combine up to 7 different prompts, each with their own wildcards, which are then joined together with spaces to create the final output string.

• Supports recursive wildcard processing up to 10 layers
