+
+## Quick Start
+
+For full installation and upgrade instructions, please see:
+[InvokeAI Installation Overview](https://invoke-ai.github.io/InvokeAI/installation/INSTALLATION/)
+
+If upgrading from version 2.3, please read [Migrating a 2.3 root
+directory to 3.0](#migrating-to-3) first.
+
+### Automatic Installer (suggested for 1st time users)
+
+1. Go to the bottom of the [Latest Release Page](https://github.com/invoke-ai/InvokeAI/releases/latest)
+
+2. Download the .zip file for your OS (Windows/macOS/Linux).
+
+3. Unzip the file.
+
+4. **Windows:** double-click on the `install.bat` script. **macOS:** Open a Terminal window, drag the file `install.sh` from Finder
+into the Terminal, and press return. **Linux:** run `install.sh`.
+
+5. You'll be asked to confirm the location of the folder in which
+to install InvokeAI and its image generation model files. Pick a
+location with at least 15 GB of free memory. More if you plan on
+installing lots of models.
+
+6. Wait while the installer does its thing. After installing the software,
+the installer will launch a script that lets you configure InvokeAI and
+select a set of starting image generation models.
+
+7. Find the folder that InvokeAI was installed into (it is not the
+same as the unpacked zip file directory!) The default location of this
+folder (if you didn't change it in step 5) is `~/invokeai` on
+Linux/Mac systems, and `C:\Users\YourName\invokeai` on Windows. This directory will contain launcher scripts named `invoke.sh` and `invoke.bat`.
+
+8. On Windows systems, double-click on the `invoke.bat` file. On
+macOS, open a Terminal window, drag `invoke.sh` from the folder into
+the Terminal, and press return. On Linux, run `invoke.sh`
+
+9. Press 2 to open the "browser-based UI", press enter/return, wait a
+minute or two for Stable Diffusion to start up, then open your browser
+and go to http://localhost:9090.
+
+10. Type `banana sushi` in the box on the top left and click `Invoke`
+
+### Command-Line Installation (for developers and users familiar with Terminals)
+
+You must have Python 3.9 through 3.11 installed on your machine. Earlier or
+later versions are not supported.
+Node.js also needs to be installed along with yarn (can be installed with
+the command `npm install -g yarn` if needed)
+
+1. Open a command-line window on your machine. The PowerShell is recommended for Windows.
+2. Create a directory to install InvokeAI into. You'll need at least 15 GB of free space:
+
+ ```terminal
+ mkdir invokeai
+ ````
+
+3. Create a virtual environment named `.venv` inside this directory and activate it:
+
+ ```terminal
+ cd invokeai
+ python -m venv .venv --prompt InvokeAI
+ ```
+
+4. Activate the virtual environment (do it every time you run InvokeAI)
+
+ _For Linux/Mac users:_
+
+ ```sh
+ source .venv/bin/activate
+ ```
+
+ _For Windows users:_
+
+ ```ps
+ .venv\Scripts\activate
+ ```
+
+5. Install the InvokeAI module and its dependencies. Choose the command suited for your platform & GPU.
+
+ _For Windows/Linux with an NVIDIA GPU:_
+
+ ```terminal
+ pip install "InvokeAI[xformers]" --use-pep517 --extra-index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/cu118
+ ```
+
+ _For Linux with an AMD GPU:_
+
+ ```sh
+ pip install InvokeAI --use-pep517 --extra-index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/rocm5.4.2
+ ```
+
+ _For non-GPU systems:_
+ ```terminal
+ pip install InvokeAI --use-pep517 --extra-index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/cpu
+ ```
+
+ _For Macintoshes, either Intel or M1/M2:_
+
+ ```sh
+ pip install InvokeAI --use-pep517
+ ```
+
+6. Configure InvokeAI and install a starting set of image generation models (you only need to do this once):
+
+ ```terminal
+ invokeai-configure --root .
+ ```
+ Don't miss the dot at the end!
+
+7. Launch the web server (do it every time you run InvokeAI):
+
+ ```terminal
+ invokeai-web
+ ```
+
+8. Point your browser to http://localhost:9090 to bring up the web interface.
+
+9. Type `banana sushi` in the box on the top left and click `Invoke`.
+
+Be sure to activate the virtual environment each time before re-launching InvokeAI,
+using `source .venv/bin/activate` or `.venv\Scripts\activate`.
+
+## Detailed Installation Instructions
+
+This fork is supported across Linux, Windows and Macintosh. Linux
+users can use either an Nvidia-based card (with CUDA support) or an
+AMD card (using the ROCm driver). For full installation and upgrade
+instructions, please see:
+[InvokeAI Installation Overview](https://invoke-ai.github.io/InvokeAI/installation/INSTALL_SOURCE/)
+
+
+### Migrating a v2.3 InvokeAI root directory
+
+The InvokeAI root directory is where the InvokeAI startup file,
+installed models, and generated images are stored. It is ordinarily
+named `invokeai` and located in your home directory. The contents and
+layout of this directory has changed between versions 2.3 and 3.0 and
+cannot be used directly.
+
+We currently recommend that you use the installer to create a new root
+directory named differently from the 2.3 one, e.g. `invokeai-3` and
+then use a migration script to copy your 2.3 models into the new
+location. However, if you choose, you can upgrade this directory in
+place. This section gives both recipes.
+
+#### Creating a new root directory and migrating old models
+
+This is the safer recipe because it leaves your old root directory in
+place to fall back on.
+
+1. Follow the instructions above to create and install InvokeAI in a
+directory that has a different name from the 2.3 invokeai directory.
+In this example, we will use "invokeai-3"
+
+2. When you are prompted to select models to install, select a minimal
+set of models, such as stable-diffusion-v1.5 only.
+
+3. After installation is complete launch `invokeai.sh` (Linux/Mac) or
+`invokeai.bat` and select option 8 "Open the developers console". This
+will take you to the command line.
+
+4. Issue the command `invokeai-migrate3 --from /path/to/v2.3-root --to
+/path/to/invokeai-3-root`. Provide the correct `--from` and `--to`
+paths for your v2.3 and v3.0 root directories respectively.
+
+This will copy and convert your old models from 2.3 format to 3.0
+format and create a new `models` directory in the 3.0 directory. The
+old models directory (which contains the models selected at install
+time) will be renamed `models.orig` and can be deleted once you have
+confirmed that the migration was successful.
+
+ If you wish, you can pass the 2.3 root directory to both `--from` and
+`--to` in order to update in place. Warning: this directory will no
+longer be usable with InvokeAI 2.3.
+
+#### Migrating in place
+
+For the adventurous, you may do an in-place upgrade from 2.3 to 3.0
+without touching the command line. ***This recipe does not work on
+Windows platforms due to a bug in the Windows version of the 2.3
+upgrade script.** See the next section for a Windows recipe.
+
+##### For Mac and Linux Users:
+
+1. Launch the InvokeAI launcher script in your current v2.3 root directory.
+
+2. Select option [9] "Update InvokeAI" to bring up the updater dialog.
+
+3. Select option [1] to upgrade to the latest release.
+
+4. Once the upgrade is finished you will be returned to the launcher
+menu. Select option [7] "Re-run the configure script to fix a broken
+install or to complete a major upgrade".
+
+This will run the configure script against the v2.3 directory and
+update it to the 3.0 format. The following files will be replaced:
+
+ - The invokeai.init file, replaced by invokeai.yaml
+ - The models directory
+ - The configs/models.yaml model index
+
+The original versions of these files will be saved with the suffix
+".orig" appended to the end. Once you have confirmed that the upgrade
+worked, you can safely remove these files. Alternatively you can
+restore a working v2.3 directory by removing the new files and
+restoring the ".orig" files' original names.
+
+##### For Windows Users:
+
+Windows Users can upgrade with the
+
+1. Enter the 2.3 root directory you wish to upgrade
+2. Launch `invoke.sh` or `invoke.bat`
+3. Select the "Developer's console" option [8]
+4. Type the following commands
+
+```
+pip install "invokeai @ https://github.com/invoke-ai/InvokeAI/archive/refs/tags/v3.0.0" --use-pep517 --upgrade
+invokeai-configure --root .
+```
+(Replace `v3.0.0` with the current release number if this document is out of date).
+
+The first command will install and upgrade new software to run
+InvokeAI. The second will prepare the 2.3 directory for use with 3.0.
+You may now launch the WebUI in the usual way, by selecting option [1]
+from the launcher script
+
+#### Migrating Images
+
+The migration script will migrate your invokeai settings and models,
+including textual inversion models, LoRAs and merges that you may have
+installed previously. However it does **not** migrate the generated
+images stored in your 2.3-format outputs directory. To do this, you
+need to run an additional step:
+
+1. From a working InvokeAI 3.0 root directory, start the launcher and
+enter menu option [8] to open the "developer's console".
+
+2. At the developer's console command line, type the command:
+
+```bash
+invokeai-import-images
+```
+
+3. This will lead you through the process of confirming the desired
+ source and destination for the imported images. The images will
+ appear in the gallery board of your choice, and contain the
+ original prompt, model name, and other parameters used to generate
+ the image.
+

+
+## Hardware Requirements
+
+InvokeAI is supported across Linux, Windows and macOS. Linux
+users can use either an Nvidia-based card (with CUDA support) or an
+AMD card (using the ROCm driver).
+
+### System
+
+You will need one of the following:
+
+- An NVIDIA-based graphics card with 4 GB or more VRAM memory. 6-8 GB
+ of VRAM is highly recommended for rendering using the Stable
+ Diffusion XL models
+- An Apple computer with an M1 chip.
+- An AMD-based graphics card with 4GB or more VRAM memory (Linux
+ only), 6-8 GB for XL rendering.
+
+We do not recommend the GTX 1650 or 1660 series video cards. They are
+unable to run in half-precision mode and do not have sufficient VRAM
+to render 512x512 images.
+
+**Memory** - At least 12 GB Main Memory RAM.
+
+**Disk** - At least 12 GB of free disk space for the machine learning model, Python, and all its dependencies.

+### Optimization*
+
+1) Find the InvokeAI folder
+2) click on .venv folder should look like that YourInvokeFolderHere\.venv
+3) Click on Lib folder should look like that YourInvokeFolderHere\.venv\Lib
+4) Click on site-packages folder should look like YourInvokeFolderHere\.venv\Lib\site-packages
+5) Find Torch directory when finded click on it should look like that YourInvokeFolderHere\InvokeAI\.venv\Lib\site-packages\torch
+6) Find the lib folder should look like that YourInvokeFolderHere\.venv\Lib\site-packages\torch\lib
+7) __Copy everything inside the folder as a Backup in whatever folder you want, it's just in case.__
+8) Go to https://developer.nvidia.com/cudnn
+9) Log-in Or Create an account if you're not already connected
+10) Download the latest version
+11) Go to the folder and extract it.
+12) Find the bin folder E\cudnn-windows-x86_64-__Whatever Version__\bin
+13) Copy the 7 dll
+14) Go Back to YourInvokeFolderHere\.venv\Lib\site-packages\torch\lib
+15) Paste the 7 dll took earlier. It should ask for replacement, accept it.
+16) Enjoy !
+
+__Very Important Note: You should Copy everything inside the folder of torch lib not __Moove It__.__
+*Note:
+If no change is seen or bug appear __ follow the same step instead just copy the Torch/lib back up folder you made earlier and replace it !
+This optimization is __normally intented for the newer version of graphics card (4th series 3th series) but result have been seen with lower version graphics.
+So giving a try could be good.
