✨🧬 CyberRealistic XL Catalyst

Beta? More like beautiful instability.

CyberRealistic XL Catalyst is where SDXL gets experimental — and unhinged in the best way. It’s not a clean showroom build. It’s the test garage where sparks fly, bolts get overtightened, and something unexpected roars to life. Built from the bones of CyberRealistic XL but loaded with experimental code, Catalyst is for those who don't mind a little chaos with their clarity.

This is where realism collides with raw unpredictability. Sometimes it's genius, sometimes it's weird, and sometimes it's so wrong it loops back to right. Welcome to the lab.

🧪 What’s New in Catalyst?

  • Experimental realism tuning — slightly less censored, slightly more what was that!?

  • Evolving with every update — no changelog, just vibes and anomalies

  • Output is volatile — but when it hits, it absolutely slaps

Version Detail

SDXL 1.0
<p><strong>Allergic to yellow tints? This one's for you.</strong><br />CyberRealistic XL Catalyst V1.1 tones down the warm, yellowish cast that’s been haunting many (CyberRealistic) SDXL checkpoints. After some gentle (but persistent) nudging from @ElectricDreams, I tracked the issue.</p><p>The result: cleaner, more natural tones and a better-balanced base for prompting. I had to reintroduce a mix of old and new elements and some tweaking, so expect slightly different behavior compared to V1.0.</p>
