Midjourney Parameters: Chaos

The --chaos parameter affects the degree of variation in the initial image grid. A high --chaos value will produce more unusual and unexpected results and combinations. The lower the --chaos value, the more reliable and repeatable the results will be.

--chaos accepts values from 0 to 100. The default value of --chaos is 0.

Impact of –chaos at 0 value

Using a very low or unspecified value for --chaos will generate a similar initial image grid.

Example prompt: /imagine prompt:a silver seashell inlaid with pink and green accents --c 0

Low value –chaos

Using a low value for --chaos will generate an initial image grid with slight variations.

Example prompt: /imagine prompt:a silver seashell inlaid with pink and green accents --c 10

Medium value –chaos

Using a moderate value for --chaos will generate an initial image grid with more diverse variations.

Example prompt: /imagine prompt:a silver seashell inlaid with pink and green accents --c 25

High value –chaos

Using a higher value for --chaos will generate an initial image grid that is even more varied and unexpected.

Example prompt: /imagine prompt:a silver seashell inlaid with pink and green accents --c 50

Very high value –chaos

Using an extremely high value for --chaos will generate a different initial image grid, often with unexpected compositions or elements.

Example prompt: /imagine prompt:a silver seashell inlaid with pink and green accents --c 80

How to Change the Chaos Value Use the --chaos or --c parameter

by adding --chaos <value> or --c <value> at the end of your prompt.
