Bring your stories and conversations to life with a dynamic, AI-powered audience.
- New Feature: Two new 'SillyTavern' styles, which uses characters from your SillyTavern roleplay/story in EchoChamber. One is for roleplay, the other for story. Roleplay includes the character's name in the character card in the EchoChamber chat, while Story does not.
- Setting: Display > Message Order -- Change the direction of replies - newest at the bottom, oldest at the top OR oldest at the bottom, newest at the top. This setting is obeyed for both Livestream and Chat Participation when enabled
- Setting: Livestream > Auto-Scroll to Latest Message - automatically scrolls to the latest message based on your Message Order setting
- Bug Fix: Generation not working when SillyTavern's panels are pinned (AI Response Configuration & Character Management)
- Bug Fix: Raw API JSON leaks when using text completion backends which caused inconsistent/wrong generation output
- Bug Fix: Floating/Pop-Out panel not being restored to its original state on reload of SillyTavern
- Chat Participation: You can now send messages and chat with others. Supports @mentions and comments in general. Set your username, choose an avatar color, and how many respond to you. Thanks to RetiredHippie for getting this feature started.
- Live icon is now clickable, allowing you to quickly enable/disable Livestream. It turns orange and pulses to indicate it is processing in the background, then turns red when done and remains Live.
- New chat style: Dark Roast. For when you want comedians to roast your story or roleplay.
- Fancy new settings menu, giving you quick access to all EchoChamber settings and options.
- Pop-out floating panel: now you can create a floating EchoChamber and resize it however you like and place it anywhere in SillyTavern. It remembers the position and size, even after restarting ST.
- Drag and reorder chat styles in any order you'd like.
- Mobile: When minimized, the entire bar can be tapped to restore EchoChamber.
- Narrator-based chat styles like Ava/Kai (NSFW) and HypeBot continue to respond and react when Livestream is enabled.
- Miscellaneous visual improvements and bedazzling.
Bugs/Issues Fixed:
- World Info setting token count too low, now set to 0 to use ST's max context and you can set it to any amount manually
- EchoChamber erroneously triggering and processing when a very slow or unresponsive LLM is used
- Style Manager not parsing and understanding {{user}} and {{char}}
