⚡ What Mega Flux Can Do – ControlNets, Pulid, Redux, and More

Let me drop some examples from using the Mega Flux exclusives.

My prompts were very simple, so I didn’t include them to avoid clutter.

🧠 Depth:

Flux Depth uses the depth map of an image, letting you prompt for what to fill it with. It's great for keeping the spatial layout while restyling the image however you want.

🧪 A Minimalist Prompt Test with Surprising Results

This one’s been on my mind for a while. I finally did an official test and the results are worth sharing. I'm keeping this post exclusive to Power Users, because it’s a real peek under the hood. 🫡

A lot of prompts I see floating around have things like (best quality:1.5), (masterpiece:1.3), (highly detailed eyes:1.8), and big negative prompts full of anatomical fails like "bad hands", "disfigured", or "extra fingers". I suspect these come from SD...
