Qwen3-VL-8B-Heretic - INT8 / W4A8 convrot (Abliterated Qwen-Image Text Encoder)

Qwen3-VL-8B-Heretic (INT8 / W4A8 Convrot) – Abliterated Text Encoder for Qwen Image

This is a quantized conversion of the excellent DreamFast/Qwen3-VL-8B-Heretic-1.3.0 model (an abliterated version of Qwen3-VL-8B-Instruct created with Heretic v1.3.0).

I converted it into:

• INT8 Convrot

• W4A8 Convrot

These formats were not available before, so I made them for easier and more efficient use as a text encoder in ComfyUI / Qwen Image workflows.

All credit goes to the original author (DreamFast). This is only a quantization conversion — I did not train or abliterate the model myself.

Usage:
Place the files in your ComfyUI/models/text_encoders/ folder and load them as usual.

Enjoy the smaller VRAM footprint!
