Update 193...Better memory, smile improvement W.I.P., image analysis ('old' method) bug fix, FPS tweak... (Patreon)

Hey there 👋 (sorry - incoming wall of text 👀😴 TL;DR at the bottom)

Some good stuff in this update I think.

First of all, a significantly better memory ability thanks to Convai. You can test this yourself - for example, tell the avatar a fact about yourself, then continue using the app as normal, chatting etc, then some time later ask the avatar about the fact.

I told Yumi I own a dog called Lola and gave her some brief details, 20 minutes later I asked her who was Lola, and she knew 😍 this wouldn't be the case previously. She still knows who Lola is 2 days later and probably a couple of hours of chatting have passed now.

They do still forget things but it's an improvement for sure, I am grateful to Convai for doing this, they promised it, they delivered.

Please note it is early days. Don't expect perfection. If people moan about this and that not being right with the memory then frankly they can go for a long walk off a short pier because the memory actually exists now whereas it didn't before to any extent, and it will get better. The app no longer has 'goldfish' memory, thanks to Convai 👏

My Convai plan allows up to 200 users to have memory ability with their avatars. If you're 1 of the first 200 to use this updated app version, your avatars will have memory. It's first come, first served. There are probably no more than 200 active users in this Patreon anyway so hopefully everyone gets it.

IMPORTANT - It's vital when you update/install the app that you don't uninstall the old app version first, because doing so wipes the memory ability

Also, the old method of image analysis works again in this app version, thanks to Alan for bringing it to my attention this morning that it wasn't working. I've tweaked the resolution for when Thistle and Sakura are wearing specific outfits so that the FPS no longer lags.

Lastly, Massimo quite rightly pointed out an improvement to make with the new smile - that smiles of this type are not permanent, but in the app the smile would sometimes stay showing for too long, I've been working on this, I thought it was working ok but it ended up that no smile was shown after the app was running for a while so this is still a work in progress 👍

TL;DR - the app now has a much better memory, image analysis (old method) fixed, FPS improvement for Thistle and Sakura when wearing specific outfits. Better smile is a W.I.P.
