To unzip 7z file: <a target="_blank" rel="ugc" href="http://www.7zip.org">www.7zip.org</a></p><p>3. Get the checkpoint flux.1d fp8:<br /><a target="_blank" rel="ugc" href="http://huggingface.co/lllyasviel/flux1_dev/blob/main/flux1-dev-fp8.safetensors￼Or">huggingface.co/lllyasviel/flux1_dev/blob/main/flux1-dev-fp8.safetensors<br />Or</a> you can try flux.1d nf4 version and you can skip step 4 &amp; 5, but so far I haven't had good luck with it.</p><p>4.
