Installatation

We recommend creating a new conda environment first:

conda create -n prompt-override python=3.11

Then activate it:

conda activate prompt-override

Install required dependencies:

pip install -r requirementst.txt

Prompt Override has recently been made into a client-only application, relying on an external server to interact with LLMs. The API can be installed from the LLMaker Server repository. You can install the server locally and change the game settings to point the client to localhost:8080 (make sure to whitelist your username on the server!).

We make use of Ollama. Follow the instructions at their website to install it on your machine. In-game models will be pulled automatically if missing at first launch (it may look like the app has frozen, but it has not).
