# ComfyUI-MaxedOut

Custom ComfyUI nodes I use in my own Maxed Out workflows (SDXL, Flux, WAN 2.2, and more).

## Mission

My main goal is to make existing nodes easier to use in the day-to-day especially for my own workflows.

## Overview

- Cleaner UX on frequently used nodes.
- Time-saving presets for common resolutions.
- Image/Video Comparer nodes with easy save.
- Advanced Wan 2.2 nodes for my Patreon exclusive workflows.

## Install

ComfyUI Manager (Recommended):

Open Manager (top-right in ComfyUI), search `Maxed Out`, install, then restart ComfyUI.

Manually:

```powershell
cd ComfyUI\custom_nodes
git clone https://github.com/Maxed-Out-99/ComfyUI-MaxedOut.git
```

Restart ComfyUI after install.

## Model Storage Auto-Registration

If you keep models outside `ComfyUI/models` (e.g. on another drive), point MaxedOut at that folder and every subfolder inside it (`loras`, `checkpoints`, `vae`, ...) gets auto-registered with ComfyUI at startup, just like `ComfyUI/models/<type>`. No `extra_model_paths.yaml` edits needed, and any new subfolder you add just works after a restart.

Set it any one of these ways:

- **ComfyUI Settings panel** (easiest): Settings → `MXD` → `Model Storage` → set *Root Folder*, then restart ComfyUI.
- **Config file**: copy `model_storage_config.json.example` to `model_storage_config.json` in this repo's folder and set `model_storage_root`. This file is gitignored, so it's yours to keep.
- **Environment variable**: set `MAXEDOUT_MODEL_STORAGE` to the folder path before launching ComfyUI.

Leave all three unset and nothing changes -- this is entirely opt-in.

## Featured Nodes

| Node | What it does |
|---|---|
| `Lora Loader MXD` | Based on rgthree Power LoRA Loader. Fixes copy/paste issues, surfaces useful info/remove buttons, and keeps local LoRA info files organized. |
| `Image Comparer + Save MXD` | Compare original vs new images in-node and save the new result easily. |
| `Video Comparer MXD` | Similar to Image Comparer but for video. |
| `Flux Empty Latent Image MXD` / `ZIT Empty Latent Image MXD` / `SDXL Empty Latent Image MXD` | Resolution presets plus vertical toggle to avoid retyping the same sizes repeatedly. |
| `Save Image MXD` | Simple save modes (`Save + Preview`, `Save Only`, `Preview Only`). |
| `WAN 2.2 MXD` nodes | Helpers for WAN 2.2 latent/video prep, frame tools, and I2V-focused workflows. |

## Credits

Huge thanks to these projects. I have learned a lot from them and built on many of their ideas:

- https://github.com/rgthree/rgthree-comfy
  Inspiration for LoRA Loader, Image/Video Comparer, and more.
- https://github.com/kijai/ComfyUI-KJNodes
  Major reference and inspiration for my own nodes.

If you star this repo, definitely consider starring theirs too.
