V6 is FINALLY HERE - Midjourney V6 FULL BREAKDOWN 

Thanks for this! Always interesting to see progress in MJ. Don't think I'll be re-subscribing to it because I have no compelling need but glad they are evolving. Hope your personal challenges work out ok.❤

Thank you for staying on top of things! :) You're my go-to youtuber for Midjourney updates.

Im still testing it and very happy to see ur video with good informations❤ thank u

Always look forward to your videos. I listened to office hours last week, and they surprised me by seeming to not be that concerned about whether we get exactly what we describe or not. Can't figure out why they aren't working on that. Maybe they should concentrate on that next time. Thank you so very much for keeping us up-to-date. I depend on your channel so much. Hope you are soon feeling better and 100 %.😊

Thanks for the update - and get well soon x

Praying for your speedy recovery! You gotta get healthy and keep bringing these amazing videos mister:)

I hope you recover from your illness! I just discovered your channel just now, it seems thoughtful and friendly so I subscribed. I sympathize with your "Superman vs Batman" problem, MJ seems to still struggle with having two or more characters of the same genre. I spent a day to get a superhero romance book cover of the hero carrying the heroine, refining and refining to get MJ to not bleed over colors or clothing articles from one to the other. Anyway, thanks for talking about this interesting topic, and good luck!

Nolan, great video. Hope you get well soon! Something I have noticed, to add: 1) The same person appears when you run --style raw and vary --s in 5.2 as well. 2) They appear for a while, then at some --s value another person appears and also stays for a range of values, etc. 3) The same is true for varying --c value!

Your enthusiasm is infectious! Always look forward to your videos. Hope you feel better.

Great for making action photography and paintings for the moment. Will have to take more time. Great video as always. Hope u doing good now.

Thanks for the recap. This looks promising.

Very cool, thanks. I love how excited you are, so many people in the chats like to complain and expect perfection right this minute. I don’t do midjourney for a living so it’s just fun. Chaos is my favorite thing - it’s crazy. I can’t stop.

After a day trying, I can't say I am enthused. It doesn't look much better than V5, it lost the understanding of many styles, and if you are not really short, faces very quickly began to look distorted. I tried out a good number of things. But anything but closeup photorealistic portraits didn't convince me.

Tip. Works with all diffusion art. If you wanna test tokens/ details adherence. Go down the body as you add. Work your way to the feet. (Ie. After green sweater…. Red leather belt…. Blue jean shorts … pink socks …. Yellow sneakers…. Etc)

I dunno, doesn't look that different from V5. Apparently it has improved prompt understanding and text capabilities but some of the generations I've seen don't really match the prompt much better either. Maybe I just had my expectations high since they said this new version would be comparable to the jump from V3-V4 instead of V4-V5, but right now I'm not even sure if it even matches the latter which is kind of disappointing.

Another great insights video. I have found interesting outcomes with negative weightings eg geisha dancing:: red::-.9 (then tested for the range of values up to and including 1

I love your vids, get well soon Nolan 😊

I’m so excited ❤

Thanks for the update!Looking forward to trying out 6.0 but I already see it still has problems with hands. I feel like I spend half my fast hours region varying fingers.

If I don't see much difference in my horror images, one thing I noticed right away in my portraits are that the skin is much more natural, even for models, we don't really have that photoshopped look anymore. That's really good !

on your chrono trigger warrior, I kind of played around with the variations on remix, and started adding in live action, photorealistic and I really got some awesome results, in how higher you put your stylize, how more focused you get on the character, and the lower on stylize (also allways on raw for this) the more it made the character blend in with the surroundings, the best result I got was when I added in dynamic fighting stance in S 250 , one the images really blew my mind

Cool video thanks !!!

Thanks for sharing

Thanks mate

For the superman thing, I tried this prompt and it gave me some decent results : while we look over the shoulder of superman, we see a defeated batman on the ground --ar 16:9 --s 50 --v 6.0 --style raw while we look over the shoulder of superman, we see a defeated batman on the ground --ar 16:9 --s 50 --v 6.0 --style raw

You got my curiosity with the explanation (awesome job, by the way...), but my guy, you got my undivided attention when you mentioned "Chrono Trigger!"

Try to make something like this :- A man holding laptop and giving a pose for a photoshoot See what you get And see if you can use it for a social media poster Can you!!!!

Looks "broken" to me for now, I mean after testing many simple prompts, all the generated images look less creative, less artistic than version 5. It's like if the model training has focused a lot on stock photos content. Or weird param doesn't work like before. Going back to 5.2 for now!

Thank you for the production and uploads, Nolan.😀

great video

I just used V6 and wow!!! I am satisfied with it so far!!! Great vid dude!!!

Thank you for your detailed interpretation, from Hamburg, Germany, Reinhard (Ron)

So here's the problem I have with all versions since 5.0. The "improvement" is subjective. In 5.1 I was making some really interesting interior architecture that versions since can't replicate in creativity. So my feeling is that the versions aren't significantly better, just different. I'd like to see the ai trained on architecture ordering systems and structure, so it knows how to make an actual staircase or gothic vault. Right now it approximates those entities and sort of, kind of, quasi understands architectural systems.

Hi Logan! I always check out your tutorials! V6 looks promising! "The MidJourney slot machine:" so accurate 😆 The mysterious prompting: it's like oracle communication with the gods. You need to be poetic (or high on something). Finally: English is (obviously) not my native language... what does "unsplash" mean? I couldn't have guessed that in a million years 😆 I'm sure you'll recover completely! Best wishes and thanks for the invaluable tutorials! 🤜🏻🤛🏻

Hope this makes you feel better, when I saw it had released I ran to RU-vid to see if you had uploaded something. (:

This is just absolutely amazing! Great video dude!

My initial impression is that where it hasn't been refined to the level of being able to consistently put out nice stuff like v5... Image based prompts might produce some interesting results with v6.

It's degraded in my opinion. I tried a series of prompts for images i had made using V5.x , and almost all of them got worse. Moreover, those prompts that I had used for making webpage and ui actually do not produce any ui or webpage in V6

0:38 The text may be better than before, but the kerning is kaos. “Same image, JUST a different tattoo”, ha ha ha!

I am a filmmaker and watching this it feels like the language of V6 is very close to screenwriting. You write a character and a scene. Only the relevant details to the reader. Than you let Midjourney slot machine do it's magic.

Thank you so much for all the free PDfs, very good indeed, please going. Please keep posting V6 tips. I'm a fan of midjourney.

You just choose the most appropriate image from the "slot machine", and you just Re-Roll that image or use the variation button. I remember when version 5.2 they said that we must Re-roll our prompts more than 2 times to get almost exactly what we want. Also I think we should stop using Parameters such as raw, stylize, chaos, etc.. They alternate the image. The simpler the prompt the more faithful the outcome.

Bummed to see that the tune feature doesnt work with V6 yet

The coherence looks impressive. I'd love a button that allows you to easily re-run prompts made in previous versions, in V6. I tried copy/pasting my last prompt from V5.2 and got an error message... "Invalid parameter. A maximum of 7 multi-prompts is currently supported." Do you know if MJ have included a list of restrictions/limitations? Or is this another great update without a user manual and a personally signed message from King David that reads... "Here's the keys to your new spaceship. "Just watch a youtube video to learn how to drive it."

You really got a figure to sit in a car seat , and haveing a head pop out of the hood 😄😄

I can't comprehend how good this has gotten in 12 months.

I ran out of fast hours....YESTERDAY!!! 🤬 Thanks for the update. Feel better. Who typed it in Discord, huh? Huh? Who did? 😆 Well, pretty much everyone and their mother figured it would be available this weekend. Now to wait for my fast hours!

I didnt know I needed Tom Cruise as a sith. I need that.

Thanks, this is very cool - I may resubscribe to MJ.

Amazing v6. Thanx for all the videos ! :)

Thanks for posting even though you’re not recovered yet!

My personal opinion on the new version: + beautiful and rich in detail be it in raw mode or normal mode + more realistic, much more realistic + The interaction between background and motif has become significantly better +promting has become better and more sensitive. + 2.7 times faster to create for the same price. -increased problems with hands, eyes and legs - a lot of words that were banned (same prompts that no longer work) - Texture of the clothes is unrealistically dry in combination with water (rain motif). this is just a small example. It's only the alpha version of v6 and optimizations are taking place. I'm excited to see how it develops further. ❤🎉

First impressions: coherence substantially better, but still has trouble with some scenarios. Text now substantially better, though still duffs it about 50% of the time (but now within the ball park of Dall-E on this). More than three words creates problems. Image quality: no grand leap over V 5 so far as I can see yet anyway. My usual subjects look about the same under 6.

Thank you once again! ❤

Just tried it. Thanks for the heads up! I left MJ for Ideogram because of the text issues and now I may come back.

Nolan, I am currently working will DALL-E . Needing more consistency of style and images and including these consistent characters within the context of a created background. Seriously considering MIDJOURNEY. Will I be able to achieve my goal in MidJourney?

I noticed you didn’t use :: or image weight numbers, does v6 generate better images with commas? Thank you for this video!

Lets goo

1:30 And getting g acces to it is even tougher

There’s a lot to like in V6, but it’s clearly still untweaked. It frequently oversharpens, still makes horrible faces with multiple subjects (unless the prompt demands otherwise), has some scale issues with subjects (test: a closeup of a duck standing next to a cow), and like you experienced in this video, can slip in and out of photorealism, even when prompted for photos. That said, I've been impressed with the improved prompt understanding and its text ability. Placement of subjects is pretty good, and consistent clothing is great, even with two subjects. As a graphic designer, the text support is great to see, though unfortunately Midjourney so far ignores typeface requests (even for the classics), and has a small range of text aesthetics that can repeat. Application of text will also take some getting used to; if the context of the text is not made clear, Midjourney will try to weave it into the image in unexpected ways. For example, with a bird as the subject, it sometimes made the letters out of twine as if it were nesting material. But with packaging,, the use of text is more reliable. Testing a beer can as the subject, the placement of the text was as expected, and it consistently well-balanced, and created a good composition of peripheral elements around the text. Prompting "subtitle" can also help when you want flat text on top of an image (effectively detached from the image). Perhaps you would consider exploring the use of text in a video.

Waiting for the pan function in V6

I am testing it - it gives more realistic results:)

9:39 I guess Midjourney couldn’t make sense of a tiger wearing purple sunglasses and an orange hat, so it decided to apply these details to the man instead, or to not apply them at all.

my favorite part is when you couldn't think of more colors besides red, green, blue and yellow 🤣

I've noticed that a lot of models have issues with cinematic camera angles. "over the shoulder" shots in particular.

I do not suppose there is any way to use the seed parameter to keep an original scene e.g "woman sitting on a bench" and then adding to that e.g. wearing a red hat. So we replicate the exact first image and then just have the red hat in addition. I tried to do this by prompting the original image but even at maximum image weight it does not get to what I want. Is there any reason in theory why weights could not be much higher?

7:54 I’ll be more impressed if Midjourney could maintain character consistency (according to the character image reference we provide it with), while accurately following your prompts. The characters it produces all look different.

Thanks!

Its good..but some result are better in 5.2 ..specially skin tone..

yesterday night till 2 o clock i was exploring v6 and i am so excited and thrilled, output value is just amazing !

Have you tried art genres or specific artists such as " in the style of". Does not seem to work in V6 (at least as of yesterday) whilst doing a great job in earlier versions

I would like to see a head-to-head comparison of MJ6 and DALL•E 3. A Unicorn riding a Unicycle is always a test for me. I still cannot get ANY AI art generator to create a LaMancha Goat - always get ears and horns.

no upscaller, low resolution images we can't use. Not in my case anyway....

mj isn't able to create tape (cassette) and vhs as I see, I've tried tons of styles in v5. 2 and tapes had always the wrong geometry

Quick question, I have created an image I like but its in the wrong aspect ratio. How can I replicate the same image but in a different ratio, when I repeat the prompt with the correct ratio the image changes so much. Thanks

It was definitely worth the wait. Good synopsis.

great video thanx

Hi! Do you have an affiliate link/ discount code for Midjourney by chance?

Can you show us how to create images in a hexagon canvas instead of a rectangle canvas.

I wonder how far one can go by switching between versions when doing remixes.

Mine are displaying small scale nudity based on simple prompts, started with fallen angel and then some other simplistic ones give similar details. What's just as interesting is most things are made with an art painting style without me asking

You can’t zoom out 1.4x on discord . Did the take that feature away. Or maybe it’s because it’s new they will add it later ?

Unfortunately, there’s no higher resolution in v6, I’ve expected 2048k

i have been saving my fast hours for this day. was doubting if it would ever come out lol. the comparisons i have done are much better in the new model. i have been trying to get an ai to do a generic old 50s romance novel illustration style that i want to use and it nailed the aesthetic better than bing

v 6 IS SOOOO MUCH better than before

I haven´t checked MJ v6 yet. But the reflection in the eye probably didn´t work, because your prompt was too much of how a human would think. First rule of promting: Words lose priority from left to right. So the prompt should start with the main subject. The eye. Next step: reflection and so on and so forth. Don´t forget you can weight single words as well but all word weights together should not exceed the sum of 1. In Dall E 3, it perfectly works with That rule goes for all Text to image AIs. General rules of thumb: Order of words. As described. Amount of words: The more words you use, the less weight every word has. Emphasizing on a word works best by either decreasing all other words via weighting or typing the word multiple times. Too many words will burn the image. You can counter that by decreasing the CFG-scale in stable diffusion or the stylize value in Midjourney. Or decreasing word weights further. Sacrificing less important words might do a lot. Don´t use whole sentences. Words like "and" are effective when telling the AI to really do both and not just a mix of both. But for example "an A inside of a B" takes a lot more weight than a simple "A inside B" or even just "A in B". Don´t forget to use negative prompts as well. Here the same rules apply. When wanting to transport a concept onto another, words like "reimagined as", "in the style of" work better than just adding them together with a "-". Hybrids of things often work best by simply typing both things and start playing with weights. words that have similar reasons or are being used in the same context are connected very close to each other in the latent space. So you can push thing into directions. Example: Prompting for an old grumpy man with a blonde wig, a blue suit and orange facetan will most likely generate exactly Donald trump. Even if you didn´t ask for him in particular. Judging by what you have shown, MJ 6 is similarly capable as Dall E 3, so they handly more words better and even understand more complex concepts. But in case, something doesn´t work right, those rules still help improving results. My general prompt construction goes like this: important concept/feature of/activity of > point of view (is basicly a concept) > main subject > subject properties like color, material, shape > Background, additional details.

I don't see too much of a difference. The new DALL-E still got it for me.

i really wish they would release a video generator

Lmao my man got a easy new sub by subtlety dropping "The Interview" quote "same same, but different" BAHAHA

Didn't expect this

want to ask, how to zoom out in v6 ??

Well, when i saw my phone let me know you announced V6 was out, couldnt wait but to give it a test spin. I mostly tried some of the things you did and did some spins on it...boy am i impressed! though this is alpha i can imagine what the full release will be like. Personally one of the game changers is that it can place text what you write in the prompt. Out of say 8 tries only one was wrong spelling adding an extra "i" to the word but still impressed. Take care and thanks for the info!!! ps get well -

It doesn't let you pan left and right? ( or up and down )

What is the cost difference between v6 and v5?

Try the "vary region" trick for the.entire image, from your previous video. It worked wonders in v5, maybe you get even better results in v6..?

Can you tell me how to get access to Midjourney? Aside from paying for it. I'd like to test it first. So far I've just been playing with crAIyon, dalle, leonardo and stable

And it is not compatible with style tuner???? Hope this won’t stay that way!!!!

why I can't put tattoo in face in midjourney?

V6 is very similar to Dalle3 in what it generates , try the using same verbose dalle 3 prompts in midjourney ,you'll find that it will yield crazy detailed results .

If the way of writing the prompt is different in v6, then you can't compare v5.2 with v6 with the same prompt...don't you think?
