Hey people of Perchance and to whoever developed this generator,

I know people keep saying, “The new model is better, just move on,” but I need to say something clearly and honestly: I loved the old model.

The old model was consistent.

If I described a character — like a guy in a blue jumper, red jeans, and purple hair — the old model actually gave me that. It might sound ridiculous, but at least I could trust it to follow the prompt. When I used things like double brackets ((like this)), the model respected my input.

And when I asked for 200 images, the results looked like the same character across the whole batch. It was amazing for making characters, building stories, and exploring different poses or angles. The style was consistent. That mattered to me. That was freedom.

Now with the new model, I try to recreate those characters I used to love and they just don’t look right anymore. The prompts don’t land. The consistency is gone. The faces change, the outfits get altered, and it often feels like the model is doing its own thing no matter what I ask.

I get that the new model might be more advanced technically — smoother lines, better faces, fewer mistakes. But better in one way doesn’t mean better for everyone. Especially not for those of us who care about creative control and character accuracy. Sometimes the older tool fits the job better.

That’s why I’m asking for one thing, and I know I’m not alone here:

Let us choose. Bring back the old model or give us the option to toggle between the old and the new. Keep both. Don’t just replace something people loved.

I’ve seen a lot of people online saying the same thing. People who make comics, visual novels, storyboards, or just love creating characters — we lost something when the old model was removed. The new one might look nice, but it doesn’t offer the same creative control.

This isn’t about resisting change. This is about preserving what worked and giving users a real choice. You made a powerful tool. Let us keep using it the way we loved.

Thanks for reading this. I say it with full respect. Please bring the old model back — or at least give us a way to use it again.

please

Wouldn't it be possible to simply have a button that would allow you to switch from one model to another? From the new to the old?

Keeping two models hosted at once would very likely involve additional costs. While it might be possible, it seems unlikely due to this reason.

ok but I don't understand, according to the following link, it is explained that prettyAi already uses several models: "As for now, we know that Perchance is using different models depending on the prompt of the user (specifically 'Furry', 'Photorealistic', and 'Anime' images)" https://rentry.org/perchance-ai-faq#%3A~%3Atext=*+The+`text%2Cspecifically+'Furry'%2C+'Photorealistic
So, what to understand?

I don't know a whole lot about AI, but when I first came across this site I thought it was the best site I ever came across. I started making as many images as I could for hours at a time because I knew it was too good to be true. And I was right (as far as my taste). I absolutely hate the new model.

That rentry looks unofficial and old (not updated to the new version). On the image generator frontend, Styles are simply extra words added to your prompt.

While there is a link to a post where the dev confirmed that the old model used more than one model (until the base model was updated), I don't think there is any information if the new model (Flux) behaves this way. There is also no detail about the cost, if those previous models could be merged into a single one, or if the Flux model is more expensive than the others combined.
