Recommended First Settings

BEGINNER SETTINGS

Model: Wan 2.1 Text-to-Video 1.3B | Frames: 49 | Steps: 20 The 1.3B model is fast, 49 frames gives ~2 seconds of video, 20 steps balances speed and quality.

Good Prompt Format

Structure: Subject + Action + Location + Style

A woman walking on a beach during sunset, cinematic, realistic, soft lighting A cat sitting near a window while rain falls outside, cozy atmosphere, detailed A futuristic city at night with flying cars, neon lights, cinematic camera movement

Common Problems and Fixes

Problem: Out of memory error

Fix: Use a smaller model, reduce frames or resolution, or switch to the 1.3B model.

Problem: Video generation is slow

Fix: Use fewer steps, smaller models, lower resolution, or generate shorter videos.

Problem: Poor video quality

Fix: Improve your prompt, increase steps to 25-30, and add keywords like: cinematic, realistic, detailed, high quality.

How It Works

Wan2GP runs as a local web app on your machine. The full flow

You type a prompt in the browser

-> Wan2GP loads the selected model

-> The model generates the video -> Output appears in the browser -> You download or preview the result

Best Beginner Workflow

  1. Install using the one-click script or Pinokio
  2. Launch Wan2GP and open http://localhost:7860
  3. Select the 1.3B model first
  4. Generate a short 2-second video (49 frames, 20 steps)
  5. Test different prompts
