From the model card
LongVie 2 is a multimodal controllable world model for generating ultra-long videos with depth and pointmap control signals, as presented in the paper LongVie 2: Multimodal Controllable Ultra-Long Video World Model. It is an end-to-end autoregressive framework trained to enhance controllability, long-term visual quality, and temporal consistency.
To get started with LongVie 2, follow the installation steps from the GitHub repository:
conda create -n longvie python=3.10 -y
conda activate longvie
conda install psutil
pip install torch==2.5.1 torchvision==0.20.1 torchaudio==2.5.1 --index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/cu121
python -m pip install ninja
python -m pip install git+https://github.com/Dao-AILab/flash-attention.git@v2.7.2.post1
cd LongVie
pip install -e .

How it works
Running it yourself
Rent a machine by the hour. ComfyUI is installed on it. Open ComfyUI through the tunnel and load the workflow from the model's card on Hugging Face; choose this model's file in its loader.
# on your rented machine (the ssh line is on its page in the console)
# get REPO FILE FOLDER: one file into /workspace/models/FOLDER, where ComfyUI loads it from
get() { hf download "$1" "$2" --local-dir /workspace/hf-files && mkdir -p "/workspace/models/$3" && mv "/workspace/hf-files/$2" "/workspace/models/$3/$4"; }
# the model (7.8 GB)
get Vchitect/LongVie2 dit.safetensors diffusion_models
start-comfyui
# on your computer, in a second terminal: ComfyUI in your browser at http://localhost:8188
# HOST and PORT are your machine's, from its page in the console
ssh -L 8188:localhost:8188 dev@HOST -p PORT
