# SDXL 1.0: Multi-LoRA Character & Style Stack in ComfyUI

Blueprint for combining character and lighting LoRAs without overcooking with SDXL 1.0 (8 GB+ VRAM) using Loader → Load LoRA #1 (0.75) → Load LoRA #2 (0.50) → KSampler.

## Facts (2026-10-17)

- **Model Architecture:** SDXL 1.0
- **Workflow Task:** Multi-LoRA Character & Style Stack
- **VRAM Requirement:** 8 GB+
- **Primary Loader:** Load Checkpoint
- **Model Directory:** models/checkpoints/

## Node graph blueprint: SDXL 1.0 × Multi-LoRA Character & Style Stack

This route pairs **SDXL 1.0** with a **Multi-LoRA Character & Style Stack** setup designed for combining character and lighting LoRAs without overcooking. Place your model weights in `models/checkpoints/` and start the graph with **Load Checkpoint**.

Core wiring chain: `Loader → Load LoRA #1 (0.75) → Load LoRA #2 (0.50) → KSampler`. Connect your positive and negative conditioning from [CLIP Text Encode](https://comfy.ink/nodes/clip-text-encode) into [KSampler](https://comfy.ink/nodes/ksampler) and decode to RGB pixels.

## VRAM tuning and execution tips on Windows

- **Memory target (8 GB+):** If your GPU sits at 8 GB or 12 GB, use FP8 or GGUF Q4/Q5 weights and swap in [VAE Decode (Tiled)](https://comfy.ink/nodes/vae-decode-encode) to avoid end-of-pass memory spikes.
- **Workflow persistence:** Every image saved by this route embeds the full JSON graph inside the PNG metadata — drag the output back onto [ComfyUI Studio](https://comfy.ink/studio) anytime to resume.
- **Get the app:** Download the Windows desktop or portable build from [/download](https://comfy.ink/download).

## FAQ

### Which loader node do I use for SDXL 1.0 in a Multi-LoRA Character & Style Stack?

Use `Load Checkpoint` with weights stored in `models/checkpoints/`, then wire the output into `Loader → Load LoRA #1 (0.75) → Load LoRA #2 (0.50) → KSampler`.

### How much VRAM does SDXL 1.0 need for Multi-LoRA Character & Style Stack?

Target VRAM is 8 GB+. On 8 GB cards, load quantized FP8 or GGUF weights and enable tiled VAE decoding.
