⚄︎ Perchance

This is a Lemmy Community for perchance.org, a platform for sharing and creating random text generators.

Feel free to ask for help, share your generators, and start friendly discussions at your leisure :)

This community is mainly for discussions between those who are building generators. For discussions about using generators, especially the popular AI ones, the community-led Casual Perchance forum is likely a more appropriate venue.

See this post for the Complete Guide to Posting Here on the Community!

Rules

1. Please follow the Lemmy.World instance rules.

2. Be kind and friendly.

  • Please be kind to others on this community (and also in general), and remember that for many people Perchance is their first experience with coding. We have members for whom English is not their first language, so please be take that into account too :)

3. Be thankful to those who try to help you.

  • If you ask a question and someone has made a effort to help you out, please remember to be thankful! Even if they don't manage to help you solve your problem - remember that they're spending time out of their day to try to help a stranger :)

4. Only post about stuff related to perchance.

  • Please only post about perchance related stuff like generators on it, bugs, and the site.

5. Refrain from requesting Prompts for the AI Tools.

  • We would like to ask to refrain from posting here needing help specifically with prompting/achieving certain results with the AI plugins (text-to-image-plugin and ai-text-plugin) e.g. "What is the good prompt for X?", "How to achieve X with Y generator?"
  • See Perchance AI FAQ for FAQ about the AI tools.
  • You can ask for help with prompting at the 'sister' community Casual Perchance, which is for more casual discussions.
  • We will still be helping/answering questions about the plugins as long as it is related to building generators with them.

6. Search through the Community Before Posting.

  • Please Search through the Community Posts here (and on Reddit) before posting to see if what you will post has similar post/already been posted.

AI Character Chat - Custom Code and Lorebooks (lemmy.world)

3 questions/issues regarding AI Character Chat...

  • Is the lorebook feature currently broken? While I was able to import a lorebook txt file for the main AI character, when I used /lore to view it, the lore information wasn't displayed - some JS code was shown.
     
  • Are lorebooks for additional characters supported? I have two characters, and each has a separate lorebook txt file. However, the 2nd character is completely unaware of the facts in its own lorebook.
     
  • My observations are that while each character has a custom code block, only the main AI character's block is used; e.g., oc.thread.on("MessageAdded") applies to any message from any character. Character-specific handling needs to be done within this block and code blocks from other characters are ignored. Is this a correct understanding?

Thanks!

  1. Can you link your lorebook file that you are trying to add. Using rentry links needs you to add a metadata to access the /raw now. Alternatively, you could use this method of creating the lorebook.
  2. IIRC only the lorebook of the main thread character is used.
  3. Yes, only the main thread character's custom code is used in the thread. You could add a trigger to check the name of the AI that sent the message to run a different custom code within the thread to have multiple characters use different custom codes.

I found the issue, just haven't been able to fix it yet.

I am using a fileserver on my localhost and things like the avatar images work fine that way (trying to work with the example of different character expressions for sad, happy, etc., but without uploading a lot of images; the custom code can snag the images via localhost with no issue).

Apparently there is some CloudFlare API in use that is OK with fetching PNG files from localhost, but NOT text files. If I use rentry (or just upload to perchance and use the URL) then the lorebooks DO work.

I had made the assumption that because I can get local PNG files, I can also get local TXT files. That's apparently not the case.

"You could add a trigger to check the name of the AI that sent the message to run a different custom code within the thread to have multiple characters use different custom codes."

Yup, doing that already. Works OK, but I need to get some better JS skills before I go much further. I just wanted to make sure that the custom code was part of the oc.thread, and not specific to each oc.character.

Thanks!

I had made the assumption that because I can get local PNG files, I can also get local TXT files. That’s apparently not the case.

I'm assuming that you have it set up on a 'GET' API, I think the solution might be to have the local server return the content type specifically e.g. text/plain for .txt files, then image/png for image files?
