Boogu-Image-0.1 — native MLX
Pre-converted, native MLX weights of Boogu-Image-0.1 for Apple
Silicon, loaded by SceneWorks' mlx-gen Rust engine — no PyTorch / Python at
inference. Boogu is a Lumina-Image-2.0 / OmniGen2-lineage flow-matching image model: a mixed
single/double-stream DiT (~10.3B) + a Qwen3-VL-8B condition encoder + the FLUX.1 16-channel VAE.
Variants
Each subfolder is a complete snapshot — transformer/ (DiT) + mllm/ (Qwen3-VL encoder + tokenizer)
vae/— loadable directly.
| Folder | Source | Task |
|---|---|---|
base/ |
Boogu-Image-0.1-Base | text-to-image (true-CFG) |
turbo/ |
Boogu-Image-0.1-Turbo | text-to-image (DMD few-step, no CFG) |
edit/ |
Boogu-Image-0.1-Edit | reference image + instruction → edited image |
base-bf16/ turbo-bf16/ edit-bf16/ |
(above) | same models, full precision |
The bare-named folders are the default Q8 build; the -bf16 folders are the unquantized originals
for maximum quality / experimentation.
Quantization (Q8 folders)
Group-wise affine Q8, group size 32 — the DiT hidden size (3360) is divisible by 32, not the usual 64. Quantized: the DiT Linears + the Qwen3-VL text-tower Linears. Kept full precision: the FLUX.1 VAE (decode-precision-sensitive), the Qwen3-VL vision tower (runs f32), and the token-embedding table.
Footprint (measured @ 1024²): Q8 ~35.5 GB peak → recommended 64 GB Mac. (Q4 would be ~27–30 GB / 48 GB; not shipped here.) bf16 runs require more.
Usage
Loaded by mlx-gen-boogu via BooguPipeline::from_snapshot("<variant folder>") (text-to-image,
Turbo few-step, and single-reference image edit). Used by SceneWorks Image Studio.
