Hotfix: v1.03b
Fixed bug that could cause requested action to fail if the last chat log displayed on screen is deleted by the requested action (such as ‘Delete This Log’ or ‘Get New Response’).
Fixed bug that could cause behind-the-scenes exception if all chat logs are deleted from the screen and user then presses up/down arrow keys to “navigate” the empty field.
Minor tweaks to AI model content generation settings. In particular, made slight tweaks to reduce chaotic or nonsensical output, and increased model penalties in place to reduce repetitive output.
Changelog: v1.03
Accessibility Overhaul
Updated all major interface elements to function with TTS. Every significant interface element in the application now functions with text-to-speech compatibility in mind. This TTS functionality is optimized for 3rd party accessibility software, such as NVDA, JAWS, etc. It is not optimized for Windows Narrator. Though if Windows Narrator is detected as running, it will attempt TTS output as well. (It will not, however, actually use Windows Narrator, as full compatibility could not be achieved. Instead, it will spool up the older Microsoft Speech API and output TTS using the Microsoft Zira voice.)
Chat Log traversal with TTS output. When the chat log window or the user entry field has interface focus, you can use the arrow keys (up or down) to navigate through the chat log entries and hear each one read aloud.
Keyboard shortcuts added for major buttons. Many of the major buttons in the application have been updated to be accessible via keyboard shortcuts. Each one is a combination of the Alt key + a corresponding letter. When available, these shortcuts are visibly communicated to users via an underlined letter in the button’s label (i.e. ‘Select Character’), and audibly communicated when TTS is enabled as such, “Select Character (Alt+S)”.
Keyboard shortcuts added to launch right-click context menu. The right-click context menu, which is available when editing text, can now be launched with the following keyboard shortcuts: Shift+F10, and the Menu key.
Expanded Right-Click Context Menu w/ New Editing Actions. The right-click context menu, used for editing text, has been expanded with the following new commands: Delete, and Select All.
Easier Selection & Copying of Support Email Address. Under ‘About’ in the main interface, the support email is displayed. You can now right-click this email address and choose ‘Select All’ or ‘Copy’ to more easily paste this value into your email application.
Misc. Updates
Added term definition for “lingam massage” to app’s internal database. Complete with examples of expected behavior and actions. Now, characters should have a clearer understanding of what a lingam massage is and how to conduct one.
Increased safeguards in place to help prevent looping errors. Rarely, when asking the AI to generate creative content (such as a narrative scenario outline), it may get stuck outputting the same section of text in a loop. The safeguards in place to help prevent this behavior have now been further strengthened and optimized.
