After a long period of silence, Midjourney is finally making some moves. Today, Midjourney officially announced the launch of version 6.1, which not only significantly enhances image quality and coherence but also offers users more personalized options. In simple terms, the main features of this update are "smarter, faster, clearer, more detailed, and more aesthetically pleasing."
Details are as follows:
Breakthrough in Image Coherence:
Version 6.1 excels in handling complex structures such as human bodies, animals, and plants. Details like arms, legs, and hands are more natural and fluid, significantly reducing the deformities and inconsistencies common in previous versions. This allows creators to confidently draw scenes involving complex poses or movements.
Overall Improvement in Image Quality:
The new version has made significant progress in reducing pixel artifacts and enhancing texture expression. Especially in the presentation of skin texture and 8-bit retro style, the results are more realistic and delicate. This provides creators with a broader space for style expression.
Precise Control Over Microscopic Details:
Version 6.1 performs remarkably well in handling small image features. Elements such as eyes, small facial details, and even distant hands are accurately and meticulously rendered, greatly enhancing the overall authenticity and expressiveness of the artwork.
Optimization of Performance and Speed:
The processing speed for standard image tasks has increased by about 25%, meaning creators can realize their ideas faster and improve their work efficiency.
Enhanced Text Accuracy:
By using "quotation marks" in prompts, version 6.1 can generate text more accurately, providing better support for creations that require textual elements.
Upgrade of Personalized Models:
The new personalized models are more delicate, stunning, and accurate, allowing creators to better express their unique styles. Additionally, the personalized code version control feature allows users to call up personalized models and data from old tasks, providing more flexibility in creation.
Introduction of the --q2 Mode:
Although this mode extends the runtime by 25%, it adds more texture details. While it may slightly reduce image coherence, it offers new options for creators who pursue extreme details.
Overall Aesthetic Improvement:
The images from version 6.1 are "more aesthetically pleasing," not only in technical metrics but also in the overall visual experience.
