Load Checkpoint
This node will detect models located in the ComfyUI/models/checkpoints folder, and it will also read models from additional paths configured in the extra_model_paths.yaml file. Sometimes, you may need to refresh the ComfyUI interface to allow it to read the model files from the corresponding folder.
