How to Resume training?

Post by lightclaw8 »

How to resume the training process? I don't see the RESUME button, only GENERATE and TRAIN. I watched some of the information about resuming on that forum, but still don't understand correctly. If I'm right I need to change the Model Dir folder to the newest snapshot, because when I'm selecting my standard model folder it showing me lots of errors. So I improvised and selected the newest model snapshot folder and now it's working but I do not quite remember what the progress was when my computer crashed, so by looking at the preview can't tell if it the same progress that was or not... Anyway, I need someone to tell me am I done it right or wrong.
Here a photo of the snapshots I'm talking about. ( I selected snapshot 100000 and press train, after that snapshot_100000_iters_snapshot_100000_iters was created, is it copy or I don't know. )

Resuming training is as simple as hitting "Train" again with the same settings loaded.

You should not change the model folder. If a model is found in the model folder, then that model is resumed.

You should not use snapshots directly. These are backups of the model at a certain number of iterations, and can be deleted if no longer required.

My word is final
