# Relax mode for V8 Alpha

**Latest Updates**

**Relax mode is now available!**

- V8 Relax is now up for all Standard/Pro/Mega subscribers
- Supports all commands (except using `--hd` and `--q 4` at the same time)
- There is a chance we run out of servers. If we do, we may change availability or speed of relax mode (until we get more servers online hopefully mid-late next week)

**Two Versions of SREF / Moodboards now available**

- We have a new version of SREF/Moodboards that is less accurate but is 4x faster/cheaper and also supports `--hd` and works better with `--p` and `--stylize` and `--exp`
- This version is now 'default'
- You can use the old version by putting `--sv 6` (style version 6) after your prompt
- Our guides/mods are split between which is 'better' but certainly in my (David's) opinion, this new version is more 'fun' - so please enjoy!

**Update on V8 Development**

- We REALLY appreciate everyone's feedback so far!
- We are now working on a big training run for a new version of V8 (it might even be called V8.1)
- This new version will (probably) take 1-3 weeks to be ready
- When the next V8 comes out, we will likely remove the 'present' version of V8. So remember everything you're using now is Alpha and temporary.
- The next version we're working on is aiming to have improved default aesthetics, creativity, coherence, image prompts, better moodboards/srefs and possibly 2K default resolution
- Obviously we can't guarantee this but it's a big cool goal and worth our time to give it a shot!
