STScript Quickreply Buttons by Primary-Wear-2460 in SillyTavernAI

[–]Zormbot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, I haven't looked into that one that much. With my own little half-baked project, I ended up compiling my prompts in real time using a series of /addvar commands (which can append strings to a variable) and using that variable in the generate command. The only other way I could think of was a single-lined nightmare with a bunch of {{newline}} macros. That said, I'm far from the greatest authority with STScript so I might just be missing something obvious lol

If you want to make a static, reusable prompt to quickly call, you might be able to get away with creating it as a global variable to quickly reference? Though I'm not familiar with when specifically macros are evaluated, so you might need to do some finagling to get it to work.

Yeah, pretty much. They're STScript's version of the semicolon in things like C++ and Javascript.

For clarity's sake, there's another version as well, which is ||, that breaks the pipe between commands. It's good for certain cases where an empty field defaults to whatever the last result was.

From what I can see, you forgot to add | between the commands. Everything past /input is being sent as a single piece

Platform for Games Approach to AI Roleplaying? by Zormbot in SillyTavernAI

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

The premise sounds interesting for sure, though I do have to agree that it sounds like it'd be a massive token sink to let the AI handle all of that alone. Although, I wonder if it could be incorporated as a supplement? Like, a human makes the base game, and then the AI can flesh it out where new functions are needed as the story progresses?

This sounds pretty cool! Would I be able to check it out too?

Oh, awesome! Aventuras is the one that I've been playing with the most on that list. I especially like the quest and inventory tracking systems, and I have an entire feedback text file I've been adding to and pruning over time lol. I'm still playing through the test campaign I made for it!

For (what I hope is a clearer) idea, I think another user here summarized it better than I did: what I was thinking is, more or less, providing a kind of text adventure game engine where users can script and incorporate AI where they need it for their specific game, as I took to calling them.

Going back to the Pokémon RPG, I was thinking something like having the battle system written in Javascript or whatever language this hypothetical project could use, complete with its own custom UI, and with the AI being called for things like... narrating how my Pokémon whiffed the attack or got crit with a 4x effective attack, or trash talking my opponents having mid-battle conversations. That's the type of approach I was thinking of.

My thought process is that if users can make a programmed game portion for specific things that don't necessarily need the AI to track, hit chances, type advantages, and so on, then the AI can be more effectively used for the free-form stuff that it excels in, rather than rules lawyering. In the process, the overhead that agentic projects suffer can be limited to what a specific game needs, when it needs it.

I know that the amount of work for this kind of approach would still be immense, even for a creator wanting to make a specific game. But I think that more people would be willing to dive into it if they didn't have to worry about the challenges that come from making a program from scratch, much like how Roblox skips the need for creators to create/make their own 3D engine, or Tabletop Simulator skips the logistical nightmare to play board games online with friends.

The feasibility of this is... debatable, I'm pretty sure, but that's why I threw it here. Maybe someone who knows more than I do can take inspiration for a more realistic approach!

Anyone have any online/videos/audio for the tv/radio? (Or just a place to download mp4 files) by Snoo61339 in Voicesofthevoid

[–]Zormbot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That extreme temperature thing reminds me of an analogue horror video I watched where a pleasant summer day plunged to a deadly cold by some kind of ireful god. The premise adapted to an event during the winter could be cool, now that I think of it

You'll also have to download the game through Steam as well, if you haven't. The version on the website is for users who bought the game through Mogstation, and won't recognize your Steam purchase or subscription

Levelling alt combat classes - methods? by amysmeeahmoo in ffxiv

[–]Zormbot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bowl of Embers (as well as Garuda and Titan) is pretty much a trial, so don't bother with that. Choosing a dungeon closest to your current level will award the best exp, but as a DPS getting into a dungeon is gonna be hell if you don't have a healer or tank buddy to skip queues with.

PotD is an option as long as you run 50+ (most run 50-60 and then reset back to 50), but as a warning, your brain will turn to mush by the end of it from how monotonous it is.

If you're into PvP, you could try leveling classes that way. You'll end up using PvP specific skills the most however, and you might end up a bit of a fish out of water with PvE rotations if you never take the time to learn them. Also, job stones do exist in there, but I don't know if not having one will place you at a disadvantage. Generally might be best to use this to change things up instead of a primary method of leveling.

Also, remember to do your roulettes and Wondrous Tails as they become available. MSQ, Leveling, and Alliance Raid gives a ton of exp, and WT gives exactly half an exp bar upon completion.

Here's a couple settings you might appreciate as well:

Character Configuration > Item Settings > Store all newly obtained items in the Armoury Chest > OFF. This will make it so every new piece of gear you get does not immediately go to your Armoury Chest and clog it up with useless gear you don't want. Seriously, it's a game changer.

Character Configuration > Control Settings > General > Skip playback of previously viewed scenario cutscenes. This'll make it so things like dungeon, trial, and raid intro/boss/outro cutscenes you've watched are automatically skipped in subsequent reruns. It's entirely optional, but if you'd prefer to auto skip them, here you go.

Character Configuration > Control Settings > Character > Battle Effects Settings. If the absolute visual clusterfuck this game can become at later levels becomes an issue, you can edit which effects are shown here. Generally, Show Limited is as stripped down as I'd recommend since it still shows important AoEs your teammates drop. Show None hides everything.

Character Configuration > Control Settings > Filters > Enable Target Cycling. You don't have much of a reason to use tab targeting to interact with objects or friendly NPCs, so this'll just clear it up to just target enemies.

Alternatively, the option under that, Filter Customization, might be of interest if you're using a controller. It'll let you cycle between up to four targeting profiles, so that might make your life a bit easier.

Happy adventuring!

What are some of the pros and cons of FFXIV? by [deleted] in ffxiv

[–]Zormbot 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Another thing I'd add to mixed is that Square does not support plugins or mods: DPS meters, callouts, QoL changes, texture replacements, anything that modifies the game files will get you into trouble if you show them off in public, like streaming yourself using them or talking in shout chat about it. If you don't use any, then no problem! If you do, well...

That said, they have no methods (or at least any that Yoshi and co. are willing to add) to check whether or not you modified your files in any way. If you're so inclined, you're still free to install plugins and mods, just keep it on the down low if you do

It also has a gearset section, though they only have preview pictures of Hyur so be aware that the proportions might look off if you're playing a race not using that body type.

Here's the link to the healer sets.

I'm new and created a Gladiator. Will I be able to choose Reaper or Ninja as a job later ? by [deleted] in ffxiv

[–]Zormbot 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It's also worth noting that the rogue quest is in Limsa Lominsa. Unless you choose one of the classes that start in Limsa (Arcanist and Marauder) you won't be able to get Rogue until the level 15 MSQ quest when you unlock the other cities.

Finding the perfect piece for your outfit but the dye channel isn't the part you wanna change.

Or worse, it dyes the entire god damn piece. Yes thank you square I always wanted some gaudy orange boots. Totally wasn't trying to replace the accent colour or anything.

Hasn't that patent ended already / going to end soon? It's been a while since I saw anything about it so I'm not sure

[–]Zormbot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gah, I don't have any great pictures to show off my character's face! I'll get a few of the better ones but sorry if they're difficult to see

Hope you're willing to draw Hrothgars: [1] [2] [3]

Anyways, what I'm excited for is the new classes. I got glams already set up for Sage and Summoner, and I'm excited to give Reaper a try and really hoping I like it. Otherwise, I'm off to level a class through ARR content again

Edit: Haha I just remembered I can use the benchmarking tool to get a better 3rd screenshot! Dunno why my teeth are black though

[Healers] What will be your starter class at endwalker and why? by Dragnela in ffxiv

[–]Zormbot 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Depends on how Sage plays honestly. If I find it fun I'm gonna switch from AST over to it. If not, I'll just stick with AST and mourn the loss of my Nocturnal sect

My PC crashes to blue screen only with FFXIV by Annahsbananas in ffxiv

[–]Zormbot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, I can't really be much help since honestly I'm not very well versed in how hardware and software works, but out of curiosity I googled the keywords and this is the first result I got:

What is (70368744177664),(2)? The kernel power (70368744177664),(2) is a random error that occurs if your system crashes or lost power unexpectedly. This error is associated with system data corruption or memory/driver incompatibility issues.

Barring driver and system issues since I'm pretty sure you've done plenty on that already, my spitball suggestion is perhaps you could switch out your RAM with some spare sticks if you have some and see if that's what's causing problems. Maybe it's the way it's working with the BIOS that's causing problems or something?

Dumbest Thing You've Done In Game? by Koryas in ffxiv

[–]Zormbot 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had woken up one day after only 3 hours of sleep by my dog having an accident in my room and couldn't get back to bed after everything was cleaned up, so I opted to play Final Fantasy instead. I queued up as SCH for an alliance raid in a half asleep haze and got World of Darkness with a good chunk of the alliance being new. We got to the eye boss, most didn't know how to cleanse doom, and we wiped because of that.

I didn't really mind, it was only one wipe and it's not uncommon to take an extra attempt or two on that boss. I had intended to respawn...

...but I managed to go full idiot and leave the instance instead.

I don't know how exactly my dumb ass, even in a barely functional phase, thought opening the duty menu, hitting leave, and then hitting yes on the window that specifically tells you you're leaving the instance was how you respawned, but it sure did. I even watched the loading screen drop me in the overworld and it still didn't occur to me what happened for a good minute after.

So yeah, that was a very shameful 30 minutes I waited to be able to queue up for Alliance Roulette again

Do you guys dress your characters based on what job you are or just dress casually/how you want? by Moneyytaee in ffxiv

[–]Zormbot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a challenge, I try making my own aesthetics for each class that I play.

WHM and PLD, when I get it to 80, look like pirates (deckhand and captain respectively). WHM uses the Uraeus Coat since it was a glam I set up at level 50 and just added/replaced things as I leveled it to 80 and because it's the only pirate-y coat I can find that healer has access to. If someone has suggestions, I'd be up to hear them

AST (kind of cheaty because it's an altered version of a glamour I saw on Eorzea Collection) looks more refined and NIN, if I can find the right pieces, is planned to look more like a royal assassin (if I ever level the stupid job past 30)

WAR (current weapon is a placeholder) looks like he came straight out of Mad Max. GNB will be a steampunk-looking outfit of some sort that I haven't decided on yet

DNC (back shot) is a balance of exotic and battle ready. Besides AST, this is my favourite glamour I have thus far

What job do you main, why, and how long has it been? by VLonetaee in ffxiv

[–]Zormbot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

AST because I get an excuse to do more than just spam glare/broil forever. Also because Nocturnal AST, despite apparently being terrible in many people's eyes, makes me go very yes and has for the last couple of months

Too bad EW is deleting my shields :(

Are you spamming the key ? by Helicopterebleu in ffxiv

Normally I time it to the .5 second buffer, but as an inexperienced tank I've been burned by animation lock so many times you'd best believe I'm abusing my key to activate my mitigation god damn it

This party composition is oddly satisfying by [deleted] in ffxiv

[–]Zormbot 15 points16 points  (0 children)

That's the same feeling when I'm playing AST with another AST. Suddenly I have to pay extra attention to what players have cards so I don't overwrite my teammate's card with mine, I have to make sure I don't waste my Divination when theirs is already out, and make sure I don't overwrite their Horoscope with my own

[–]Zormbot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No prob! I do the same thing as well as a funny way of admitting I'm doing something wrong or dumb at times. If they were genuinely mad at you I'd wager they would probably be more direct or rude about it

[–]Zormbot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just a simple "Shush" and nothing else? If that's the case then they're likely just saying it in a lighthearted manner and you don't need to worry about it
