This is a quantized to 4bit, converted to Apple Silicon MLX, version of Z-Image-Turbo for use with [this tool](https://github.com/uqer1244/MLX_z-image), including my New Mecha LoRA.

The script used to convert and merge LoRA is included. It relies on the previously mentionned tool to work.

```
(.venv) [user@MacM1 MLX_z-image] $ python convert_comfy.py --src_model models/z_image_turbo_bf16.safetensors --dst_model alpha.safetensors --lora_model loras/new_mecha_zit.safetensors --lora_scale 0.6
