InvokeAI 7.0.0-alpha.4 Adds New Models and Database Changes
InvokeAI 7.0.0-alpha.4 introduces new image models and database migration features.
What happened
InvokeAI 7.0.0-alpha.4 is a new version that includes database migration and several new features.
Users are advised to create a new root directory for v7 to avoid conflicts with v6. If a v6 database is accidentally upgraded, a backup is created before migration.
Why it matters
The migration process ensures compatibility with future versions while making older versions incompatible. This is important for users who want to continue using v6 without disruption.
Key details
Alpha 4 adds new image model families, including FLUX.3 Klein and MOSS-Image. FLUX.3 Image Klein is available in both the step-distilled Klein and the undistilled Klein Base versions. MOSS-Image is available in Base and SFT versions under the Apache 2.0 license.
The release includes faster int8 models and support for Windows on ARM64. Anima now supports IP-Adapter character reference images for generating character-based content. Krea-2 edit mode allows up to three reference images to be used in Generate, Canvas, and workflows.
