How does the "Clip Skip” work in OT?

[hansolocambo]

I'm used to train Clip Skip 1 for SDXL and Clip Sklip 2 for PonyXL. This line in the UI being called "Clip Skip 1" makes it quite confusing.

Which "Clip Skip 1" value should I use ?

• For SDXL I want Clip Skip 1, so should I use a value of 0 like in the tutorial I saw ? Or 1 ?
• For a Pony XL training (I want Clip Skip 2), should I use a value of 1 ? .... or 2 ?

I could really use some help on this one.
Thanks.

Clip Skip = 0 means that 0 layers are skipped. The output of the last layer is used as input into the UNet
Clip Skip = 1 means that 1 layer is skipped. The output of the second to last layer is used as input into the UNet

I don't know what exact naming some of the other tools are using, but using Clip Skip 2 as the name for the second to last layer seems very confusing to me. That's why I didn't use that naming.

In other words: If you're coming from Automatic1111: take the value you'd use for clip skip there, and subtract one from it, and that's what you'd use in OneTrainer.
