Hi this is Crody from Team-C: creator of Nova Series

In this article, I'll write down what kind of merge I use with some knowledge about SDXL models For how I do, please read Merge Scripter Guide first

1. Weighted Sum / Sum Twice

Weighted Sum (WS) merges 2 models, Sum Twice (ST) merges first 2 and 1 model (which means doing WS twice) You can use Block Merge as well Using alpha (and beta) to determine how much similarity the result have Higher value means the results would be similar to latter model
