Overview
CyberRealistic
Pony
blends Pony Diffusion's prompt control (score tags, rating tags, strong pose understanding) with the detailed realism of the CyberRealistic family. Version 18 CoreShift is the current release, with crisp textures and moody cinematic lighting.
The author's settings are specific: DPM++ SDE Karras or DPM++ 2M Karras, 30+ steps, 896x1152 or 832x1216,
CFG
5, Clip Skip 2, and a score_9, score_8_up, score_7_up prefix. Companion positive and negative
embeddings
sharpen realism further.
Reference
Name | Type | What it is |
|---|---|---|
Prefix | score_9, score_8_up, score_7_up | Always first; add rating_safe for SFW results. |
Negative | text | score_6, score_5, score_4, (worst quality:1.2), (low quality:1.2), lowres, bad anatomy, bad hands, signature, watermark |
5 | Author's value. | |
Steps / sampler | 30+, DPM++ SDE Karras | Or DPM++ 2M Karras / Euler a. |
Resolution / Clip Skip | 896x1152, Clip Skip 2 | Portrait bucket; Clip Skip 2 matters on Pony. |

No install required - run AI models on the cloud
BitVector Prism is the easiest way to start: pick a model, type a prompt and generate in a clean web app, with nothing to configure. BitVector is also available on Discord and on the web (SpyGlass).
Step by step
- Start the prompt with the score chain and rating_safe.
- Describe the subject in plain words: a woman in her forties in a yellow raincoat, then setting and light.
- Set 896x1152, CFG 5, 32 steps, DPM++ SDE Karras, Clip Skip 2.
- Add the CyberRealistic Positive embedding at the start and the negative embedding in the negative for extra realism.
Examples
Portrait
score_9, score_8_up, score_7_up, rating_safe, photo of a woman in her forties in a yellow raincoat on a ferry deck, wind in her hair, overcast light, 85mm, film grain
Negative: score_6, score_5, score_4, (worst quality:1.2), (low quality:1.2), lowres, bad anatomy, bad hands, watermark
Environment
score_9, score_8_up, score_7_up, rating_safe, misty medieval village lane at night, timber houses, lanterns, wet cobblestones, cinematic, atmospheric depth
Creative idea: surreal still life
score_9, score_8_up, score_7_up, rating_safe, a surrealist sculpture of a tree made of copper wire with leaves of shattered glass, dramatic studio lighting, photoreal
Tips
- Pony tags such as from above, looking at viewer and dutch angle give precise composition control.
- Natural language after the score chain works fine on this model.
- Mention lens and film (85mm, Kodak Gold) for a photographic grade.
- For hires, 1.5x at 0.3-0.35 denoise keeps textures intact.
Troubleshooting
Plastic skin
Why it happens
CFG above 6 or missing realism cues.
How to fix it
CFG 5, add skin texture and film words, use the Positive embedding.
Prompt produces anime-ish results
Why it happens
Missing score chain or Clip Skip 1.
How to fix it
Add the score prefix, set Clip Skip 2, and include photo or realistic in the prompt.

Questions
Are v13 and v17 very different?
They share the approach; v18 CoreShift has the most refined textures. The settings are the same for all three.
Does it work with Illustrious LoRAs?
