Rebels NL-Diffusion-Image GGUFs
ComfyUI_Rebels_NLD Custom Nodes
WORK IN PROGRESS. EXPECT BAD OUTPUTS UNTIL I EXPLICITLY CHANGE THIS DESCRIPTION.
GGUF loader + text-to-image nodes for NVIDIA NL-Diffusion-Image (masked discrete diffusion LM + IBQ VQ decoder) on consumer hardware. By RealRebelAI.
MODELS (Transformer, Encoder, VAE):
https://huggingface.co/realrebelai/NL-Diffusion-Image_GGUF/tree/main
CUSTOM NODES (REQUIRED):
https://github.com/RealRebelAI/ComfyUI_Rebels_NLD
NODES ARE OPERATIONAL BUT SLOW. Flash ATtention helps speed up significantly. Currently working on patches for speed ups. they will run in their current state but i recommend git pulling frequently.
Install
Clone into ComfyUI/custom_nodes/ .
Requires the city96 ComfyUI-GGUF fork in the same custom_nodes/ folder (used for dequant).
Put the model files (dropdown-selected, no paths):
dLM GGUF → ComfyUI/models/unet/
vqvae (bf16 .safetensors ) → ComfyUI/models/vae/
The config/tokenizer/modeling code ships in model_assets/
IMPORTANT!
model.safetensors file MUST go in "custom_nodes\ComfyUI_Rebels_NLD\model_assets\emu3_vqvae"
https://huggingface.co/nvidia/NL-Diffusion-Image/blob/main/emu3_vqvae/model.safetensors
Nodes
NL-Diffusion dLM Loader (GGUF) — pick gguf_name and vqvae_name from dropdowns, choose device.
NL-Diffusion Text to Image — prompt, size, steps, guidance, temperature, seed → IMAGE.
Notes
The dLM generates discrete token indices; the vqvae decoder turns them into pixels. It is not a latent VAE — it loads through this pack, not ComfyUI's VAELoader.
Vocab embeddings use row-gather dequant, so the 131k-row tensors never fully materialize.
Vision-tower (image-understanding / edit) weights are left on meta and not needed for t2i.
License
Model is under the NVIDIA One-Way Noncommercial License (research/development only). Quants inherit those terms — publish as license: other with the upstream terms linked.
