ControlNet Loader
Learn about the ControlNetLoader node in ComfyUI, which is designed to load ControlNet models from specified paths. It abstracts the complexities of locating and initializing ControlNet models, making them readily available for further processing or inference tasks.
This node will detect models located in the ComfyUI/models/controlnet 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.
