[Bug]: controlnet not found

[itsklimov]

What happened and why was it ungood?

Seems like they updated the version and control net is integrated, but deforum is looking for standalone controlnet.
Please, update

I managed to get it working, but I tried so many changes that I don't remember the process. Let's see:

Notice: If the following does not work to you, uninstall deforum and controlnet and delete their folders and try to do the second step (controlnets) first. Also, try to close the console and interface between steps

First, be sure you installed the Forge version o Deforum and not the 1111Automatic version: go to [YOUR-FORGE-FOLDER]\extensions\ and search for the folder "sd-forge-deforum" and not another deforum folder. If you have another, close console and delete the folder, and install it from: https://github.com/deforum-art/sd-forge-deforum

Second, install the controlnet extension. Here you can see the process of installation: https://github.com/Mikubill/sd-webui-controlnet?tab=readme-ov-file#installation Although I have it installed, it appears unchecked in my Extensions list (probably because Forge forces to uncheck it as Forge has the controlnet built in). Even if I check it and restart, it reappears as unchecked, but it does not matter, as I have it working in Deforum.

Now you need to download the models of the different controlnets. I already had them in [MY-FORGE-FOLDER]\models\ControlNet . If you already have them, copy-paste the controlnet models you have in [YOUR-FORGE-FOLDER]\models\ControlNet to [YOUR-FORGE-FOLDER]\extensions\sd-webui-controlnet\models (I am not a developer, maybe there is a better option than having them duplicated). I you don't have them, download the models (the .pth files) from: https://huggingface.co/lllyasviel/ControlNet-v1-1/tree/main

Last, go to the Settings, search for "multi" and be sure you have "Multi-ControlNet: ControlNet unit number (requires restart)" in 5, (If you have it with 6, Deforum tries to find a sixth controlnet which does not need, and gives an error). I read this here in the forums but I can not find the original poster.

Good luck!
