Boogu Center v0.1, just messing around with low steps and low CFG.

Saw someone on Civitai messing around with Boogu v0.1, and even the author said it’s just for fun. The params are super lightweight — 4 to 8 steps is enough, max 12, and CFG cranked all the way down to 1.

This low-step, low-CFG approach is basically riding the distillation/acceleration wave. It’s fast for generating images, and the real win is the low cost. I use it as a sketch machine — crank out a batch fast to check compositions, then take the winners over to a proper checkpoint for refinement. Don’t expect one-shot quality; it’s just a quick-and-dirty tool for rapid trial and error.

The author’s release is pretty barebones, not much documentation. If you want to go deeper, you’ll have to experiment with the params yourself.

CFG 1 is pretty much the standard for speeding up models.

I use the “draft machine” method too.

4 steps per image, batch generating is just too good.
