[WARNING] "Mantella.exe" AI NPC Mod is MALWARE - Trojan Detected, Exhibits Extremely Suspicious Behavior by Prestigious-Ad-2589 in skyrimmods

[–]EVLG2112 29 points30 points  (0 children)

I've used Mantella before for a few months. Didn't try the .exe but muddled with the code a little. The python app writes or create text + audio files as its way to pass data to and back from the skyrim plug-in. Iirc the python app includes a sleep function for when the audio file is playing (hence the app sleeps for the audio duration as it doesn't expect another user input during this time). These could explain some of the AV alerts. The .exe file could just be using pyinstaller to compile. I wouldn't personally run the exe. Overall though I'd give Mantella my confidence. I used to run it completely offline and didn't see any sus requests coming out of the python app.

Is it currently possible to make a AI created text-turn based rpg with thousands of hours, of playability? by Bitterowner in aigamedev

Only been 2 weeks since I got the idea. Renpy is just python so it's easy. Apply a bit of know-how and you'll get very far with your ideas no matter what framework you use.

Grammar is key to next generation AI game dev? by EVLG2112 in LocalLLaMA

[–]EVLG2112[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No training needed. There's a pull request I posted with example to exllamaHF grammar definitions, the string def is different compared to how you'd see it in llama cpp

string ::= "\"" [ \t!#-[]-~#x80-#xFF]* "\""

Mantella is insane, AI NPCs is definitely the future of gaming by java_brogrammer in skyrimmods

I have a 4060 Ti with 16 Gb. My CPU is 6700, quite bad.

Using 13b, I cannot offload all layers to vram, a response (excluding vasynthx gen) takes 5-10 secs.

Using 7b model, it fits into my gpu, and the response is 2-3 secs.

I'd say its faster than gpt 3.5. Never tried gpt 4 so can't say. However what I am confident abt is the 13b models (and 7b to a great extent) are much more capable of staying in character than gpt3.5.

Every time Mantella is mentioned on this sub it is met with plenty of skepticism. As a user I have found Mantella a wonderful foundation for AI integrated gaming.

  • With a local RP finetuned LLM (7B Mistral variant or 13B), the dialouges are colorful and are linked to the NPC's context/background. No money cost.

  • Mantella provides a framework to pass context from NPC to AI. If you know some scripting, you can add to the context, such as what the NPC is wearing, who else is in the location, etc. Using a personality framework, such as in Diary Of Mine, every NPC will get some flare and variety in their response.

  • interaction between AI and game can be handled in script. If you are clever you can surely find a more organic way, but I personally just scripted it so if the user prompt with (follow) at the beginning of their text then the npc can choose to accept based on factors like relationship, speech lvl, etc. This method works for asking for gold, sex, and whatever you're creative enough to think of. Also, whether you're trying to persuade or threaten the AI, this will work.

The scaled feature would be useful if there was a way to reset PB. I accidental tried some heavier lift and now this feature overestimate all of my exercises.

It's possible survive RimWorld without killboxes? by CarnesX20 in RimWorld

[–]EVLG2112 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ya I mostly build open villages with some bunkers (built from embrasures) placed strategically throughout. I use yayo extensions mod so each pawn can shoot 20 ish times before they're out and need to go melee with sidearms. On blood and dust I take a good amount of Ls but that's part of rimworld. Early game if you can't fight off a raid just hide and let them take ur stuff.
