+## Information
+
+This is a Exl2 quantized version of [MN-LooseCannon-12B-v1](https://huggingface.co/GalrionSoftworks/MN-LooseCannon-12B-v1)
+
+Please refer to the original creator for more information.
+
+Calibration dataset: Exl2 default
+
+## Branches:
+
+- main: Measurement files
+- 4bpw: 4 bits per weight
+- 5bpw: 5 bits per weight
+- 6bpw: 6 bits per weight
+
+## Notes
+
+- 6bpw is recommended for the best quality to vram usage ratio (assuming you have enough vram).
+- Quants greater than 6bpw will not be created because there is no improvement in using them. If you really want them, ask someone else or make them yourself.

+## Run in TabbyAPI
+
+TabbyAPI is a pure exllamav2 FastAPI server developed by us. You can find TabbyAPI's source code here: [https://github.com/theroyallab/TabbyAPI](https://github.com/theroyallab/TabbyAPI)
+
+1. Inside TabbyAPI's config.yml, set `model_name` to `MN-LooseCannon-12B-v1-exl2-6bpw`
+   
+   1. You can also use an argument `--model_name MN-LooseCannon-12B-v1-exl2-6bpw` on startup or you can use the `/v1/model/load` endpoint
+
+2. Launch TabbyAPI inside your python env by running `./start.bat` or `./start.sh`
