OSError: Can't load tokenizer for 'openai/clip-vit-large-patch14' about invokeai HOT 2 CLOSED

if I have installed using the win installation, i don't have this script to run, what should i do?

from invokeai.

After conda activating the "ldm" environment, and changing to the stable-diffusion directory run:

python scripts\preload_models.py

This only needs to be done once. The reason for this is that the original source code downloads these models on a just-in-time basis. However, my university's GPU systems are firewalled and so this step fails. To make it easier for everyone, I decided to have a mandatory preload which caches the required files locally. (It also has the effect of removing about two pages worth of warnings when the CLIP tokenizer is loaded!)

Let me know if this solution does or doesn't work for you. I'll keep the issue open until then.
