Diagram 1254x1254

How to Use

  • Use with minimax_h3_ref2va_hyperflow_flash_14b, strength 1.0–1.5

Risks and Limitations

  • Only applicable to the ref2va version of HyperFlow; use the original slider for the original H3
  • 2 examples are hidden due to rating; this entry has not been tested
  • The card image is an AI-generated diagram, not the model's actual output; the author has no publicly available safe-for-work examples
