### [acePlusPlus](https://runware.ai/docs/models/krea-flux-1-krea-dev#request-aceplusplus)

- **Path**: `acePlusPlus.images`
- **Type**: `object (4 properties)`

ACE++ is an advanced framework for character-consistent image generation and editing. It supports two distinct workflows: creating new images guided by a reference image, and editing existing images with precise control over specific regions.

Note: When using the `acePlusPlus` object, you must set the [model](https://runware.ai/docs/models/krea-flux-1-krea-dev#request-model) parameter to `runware:102@1` (FLUX Fill).

> [!NOTE]
> The `masks` parameter is required when `type` is set to `local_editing`, and is not allowed for other types (`portrait`, `subject`). This determines the workflow: creation types use only reference images, while `local_editing` requires explicit masks to define the edit region.

**Examples**:

**Creation Workflow:** Generate new images that maintain the style, identity, or characteristics from a reference image. The model extracts visual features from the reference image and combines them with the text prompt to condition the generation process.

```json
"acePlusPlus": {
  "type": "portrait",
  "images": ["59a2edc2-45e6-429f-be5f-7ded59b92046"],
  "repaintingScale": 0.5
}
```

**Editing Workflow:** Modify specific regions of an existing image using guidance from a reference image. Uses an input mask to define the exact area to be edited while preserving the rest of the image unchanged.

```json
"referenceImages": ["59a2edc2-45e6-429f-be5f-7ded59b92046"],
"acePlusPlus": {
  "type": "local_editing",
  "images": ["59a2edc2-45e6-429f-be5f-7ded59b92046"],
  "masks": ["90422a52-f186-4bf4-a73b-0a46016a8330"],
  "repaintingScale": 0.7
}
```

#### [images](https://runware.ai/docs/models/krea-flux-1-krea-dev#request-aceplusplus-images)

- **Path**: `acePlusPlus.images`
- **Type**: `array of strings`
- **Required**: true

Reference images for character identity preservation (UUID, URL, Data URI, or Base64).

#### [masks](https://runware.ai/docs/models/krea-flux-1-krea-dev#request-aceplusplus-masks)

- **Path**: `acePlusPlus.masks`
- **Type**: `array of strings`

Mask images for selective editing (UUID, URL, Data URI, or Base64).

#### [repaintingScale](https://runware.ai/docs/models/krea-flux-1-krea-dev#request-aceplusplus-repaintingscale)

- **Path**: `acePlusPlus.repaintingScale`
- **Type**: `float`
- **Min**: `0`
- **Max**: `1`
- **Step**: `0.01`
- **Default**: `0`

Balances original character identity (0.0) vs prompt adherence (1.0). Lower values preserve stronger character resemblance.

#### [type](https://runware.ai/docs/models/krea-flux-1-krea-dev#request-aceplusplus-type)

- **Path**: `acePlusPlus.type`
- **Type**: `string`
- **Default**: `portrait`

Task mode for ACE++ generation.

**Allowed values**:

- `portrait` Face consistency.
- `subject` Object consistency.
- `local_editing` Region modification.

### [hiresFix](https://runware.ai/docs/models/krea-flux-1-krea-dev#request-hiresfix)

- **Type**: `boolean | object`

Two-stage generation for improved resolution and detail. The model generates at a lower resolution first, then upscales and refines the result in a second pass. Can be enabled with `true` for default settings, or configured as an object for fine-grained control over the upscaling model, steps, and strength.

When using the object form, the `model` parameter is required. Available upscaling models:

| Model | Name | Upscale Factor |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `runware:504@1` | RealESRGAN\_x4plus | 4x |
| `runware:realesrgan@anime-6b` | RealESRGAN\_x4plus\_anime\_6B | 4x |
| `runware:esrgan@animesharp` | 4x-AnimeSharp | 4x |
| `runware:esrgan@ultrasharp` | 4x-UltraSharp | 4x |

**Simple (boolean)**:

```json
"hiresFix": true
```

**Configured (object)**:

```json
"hiresFix": {
  "model": "runware:esrgan@ultrasharp",
  "steps": 15,
  "strength": 0.6
}
```**Allowed values**: `true`

### [layerDiffuse](https://runware.ai/docs/models/krea-flux-1-krea-dev#request-layerdiffuse)

- **Type**: `boolean`
- **Default**: `false`

Enables LayerDiffuse technology, which allows for the direct generation of images with transparency (alpha channels).

When enabled, this feature applies the necessary LwwwwwwoRA and VAE components to produce high-quality transparent images without requiring post-processing background removal.

This is particularly useful for creating product images, overlays, composites, and other content that requires transparency. The output must be in a format that supports transparency, such as PNG.

Note: This feature is only available for the FLUX model architecture. It automatically applies the equivalent of:

```json

  "lora": [{ "model": "runware:120@2" }],
  "vae": "runware:120@4"
```

**Examples**:

```json
"outputFormat": "png",
"advancedFeatures": {
  "layerDiffuse": true
}
```

### [pulid](https://runware.ai/docs/models/krea-flux-1-krea-dev#request-pulid)

- **Path**: `pulid.CFGstartStep`

PuLID (Pure and Lightning ID Customization) enables fast and high-quality identity customization for text-to-image generation. This object allows you to configure settings for transferring facial characteristics from a reference image to generated images with high fidelity.

> [!NOTE]
> `CFGstartStep` and `CFGstartStepPercentage` are mutually exclusive, they both control when CFG guidance begins, but as an absolute step number or a percentage respectively. Use one or the other, not both.

**Examples**:

```json
"puLID": {
  "images": ["59a2edc2-45e6-429f-be5f-7ded59b92046"],
  "idWeight": 1,
  "trueCFGScale": 1.5,
  "CFGStartStep": 3
}
