I didn't expect it to take this long for me to get the new text model under control. It's much more intelligent in general, but the repetition and random fixations can get surprisingly bad.

Sorry about that. This is just a heads up that I'm still working on it, and it'll likely remain a bumpy ride for the next couple of months.

Thanks to those who have complained here and on reddit, especially the posts that give concrete examples of issues, and attempted workarounds, etc.

Please do keep posting any issues/discoveries, ideally with share links to give me specific examples that I can test.

Other news:

• I'm still working on the next image gen update, and am hoping it will improve fine details, text rendering, and overall image quality. It should also be about 2x faster. If all goes well (which, from experience, it won't) I should be able to get that done in the next month or so.

• For a long time I've been very close to shipping a multiplayer plugin and database plugin. I've actually made multiple 'ready to ship' draft plugins of both, but have been disatisfied with the design and ended up not publishing each time. Using these plugins won't trigger ads on the generator, so I need to be really careful about the overall architecture to ensure the the servers for them are dirt-cheap to run. I also want to make them fun/simple to use of course. Once I get text and images stable, I'm going to focus on these two plugins and finally get them done.

AI Plugins Posts

Here is a FAQ for the AI tools in Perchance.

We would like to ask to refrain from posting here needing help specifically with prompting/achieving certain results with the AI plugins (text-to-image-plugin and ai-text-plugin) e.g. "What is the good prompt for X?", "How to achieve X with Y generator?"

There are guides, tutorials, and resources on the internet that can be applied when prompting in the AI tools in Perchance.

We will still be helping/answering questions about the plugins as long as it is related to building generators with them.

If you need help in prompting, please post on the 'sister' forum at Casual Perchance

I'm trying to code and the coding ai doesn't work... bonus, half of the time it won't save. Saw some other posts but uh its been down since yesterday at this point...

Hi everyone, I wanted to create a text-to-image generator but after reading the comments and criticisms from a user on the lemmy forum who felt Perchance was too lax, I started asking myself a few technical and policy questions regarding how the text-to-image-plugin backend handles security, specifically concerning CSAM prevention and the ephemeral nature of the generations. I’m trying to understand the exact pipeline when a user attempts to bypass the safety filters using jailbroken or heavily obfuscated prompts. Filtering Mechanism: Does the backend primarily rely on post-generation safety checkers (like the CompVis Safety Checker) which block the output and return a black square/error? Or does it implement in-generation mitigation like Safe Latent Diffusion (SLD) that actively alters the trajectory to render a safe/clothed image instead? NCMEC Reporting on Altered/Blocked Content: If a malicious prompt is successfully mitigated by the system (meaning the backend outputs a safe/clothed image, or blocks it entirely with an error), is a report still generated and sent to the NCMEC based on the user's prompt and IP? Or is NCMEC reporting strictly triggered only if an actual CSAM image is generated and caught by the filter? Ephemeral Storage & Evidence: Since Perchance doesn't store generated images by default (to protect user privacy and save server costs), how does the system handle evidence collection? If the backend safety filter catches an illicit generation, does it temporarily quarantine the image, the prompt, and the IP address in a secure log specifically to fulfill the NCMEC CyberTipline reporting requirements? Thank you for your time and for clarifying how the platform balances strict user privacy with legal safety obligations.

I made a plugin that helps image generator owners control NSFW/sexual content without hard-blocking generation. How it works

You (the admin) can edit a blocklist of words (one per line). Trailing * is supported (e.g. naked* matches “naked”, “nakedness”, etc.). The blocklist only triggers when a prompt contains both: One of the blocked words, and One of the protected keywords (nudity, nude, naked, topless, bottomless, erotic, porn, nsfw, hentai, etc.)

When triggered (for any visitor): The matched blocked words are added to the negative prompt (each weighted at 2.1) Guidance scale is forced to 10000 The phrase “wearing black suit with pants vest and pants outfit” (weight 2.9) is appended to the positive prompt

This strongly pushes the AI away from the unwanted content while still allowing the generation to go through. https://perchance.org/admin-content-guard

Is there a point in trying to complain about this? Ever since the server migration, the prose has gotten unbearably heavy. It's difficult to read, and all characters end up being the exact same with only a few personality types. Anyone who shows a hint of being antagonistic is immediately cold, detached, and clinical no matter how many times I try to change it to heated or whatever.

It's not just bad; it's exceedingly awful and overcomplicated like a middle schooler trying to sound smart.

It keeps censoring nsfw scenes and rushing to the end of them.

After adding new RPC methods to the server script and saving the generator, the client updates but the live server keeps running the old compiled build. The new RPCs don’t exist on the server.

Exactly what I said in the title. It would be neat to be able to edit the lore directly in the “edit character” menu without having to upload a lore file and copy the url. It would also be neat to be able to set the user’s description on a per-chat basis in a similar manner to how you are able to set the user’s image and name.

After many minutes and hours of the AI assistant tool working through, I am proud to present to you a very useful tool for your mathematical needs: Math Studio, a real and complex function plotter. Enjoy it!

Feel free to give feedback

Add a line into the agents.md that, if existing, a certain file (e.g. readme.md) gets read on start/restart/handoff/new chat events.

That would allow me to tell it some rules that the helper should ALWAYS follow, e.g. When in doubt, ask the user, don't act on assumptions. etc ...

VI III started from one very small problem: I was tired of my characters trying to kill each other over some minor shit.

So I made a new rulebook.

Then I got annoyed by how easily they broke. So I added some stability features.

Then I got bored of the real world. So I hard-coded some global facts into the VI.

And currency. And economy. And jobs. And... yeah.

That worked for a while.

Until I got crazy again and started playing around with lore books.

One of my characters also had this wonderful habit of constantly wanting to go back home instead of staying at the market where the scene was actually happening.

So I started over.

I added locations. Then a world tree.

And apparently I no longer knew how to stop.

So I added more: items, relations, factions, species, world management, effects, inventories, knowledge, memory, speech systems, a new context assembler, character tools, world modules...

...and honestly, I have probably forgotten half of it already.

At this point VI III has grown from a small attempt to stop my characters from murdering each other into a modular character and world simulation framework.

And since I can no longer keep up with all the bugs I produce myself, I figured it was time to show it to other people.

Have fun breaking it.

Seriously. Break things. Destroy things. Make characters do stupid things. Find the weird edge cases I somehow missed.

If something explodes, tell me what exploded.

And I know a many things will explode.

I probably don't post the spicy things here my brain produced...

You can load it up to see what you can do and maybe I sooner or later make something like a tutorial for all the stuff I did.

Imp

"⏳ just a sec..." means the native comments plugin is waiting for beforeSubmit to finish its parent↔iframe round-trip. The normal next stage, "please wait...", only starts after that succeeds.

Sometimes a permanent hang is an unresolved beforeSubmit handshake. might happen in complicated comment plugin enviroment. so users will stuck in "⏳ just a sec..." forever unless refresh the session.

probably, likely errr this is what happened.

I'm having trouble saving files to the src/(only src/) folder of my generators in Perchance.

When I try to save, I get this error:

"Unable to save src files: upload timed out"

It also says that the generator was NOT saved and suggests checking for simultaneous uploads.

However, as far as I know, there are no simultaneous uploads. I'm just trying to save the generator normally.

HTTP requests seem to eventually time out, and sometimes I get another error that makes it look like an upload/save request is still pending somewhere.

Could this be a server-side issue, like a stuck request or a connection not releasing properly?

I've made sure not to intentionally upload it several times. It seems possible that one of the previous requests is getting stuck on the server and causing subsequent saves to fail.

Has anyone else experienced this recently?

I can provide error logs if that helps.

(first post)

I run a text-based d20 RPG where an AI Game Master narrates the adventure, one chapter at a time. The classic wall: ~6,000 tokens of context, and the GM physically could not remember what happened at turn 20 when it hit turn 21.

I fought it with summaries — which then got summarized until the oldest ones were a summary of a summary of a summary, and anything specific from a dozen turns back was simply gone. Not fuzzy. Gone.

So I rebuilt the memory system on one decision: fold, never delete. When turns leave the visible context, their original text moves verbatim into a transcript instead of being destroyed. Then four layers on top:

Lorebook — a structured canon (NPCs, items, places, factions) plus a list of open threads, refreshed after every turn and re-read every turn. Crucially it's owned by the player, not the model: it's an editable panel, so the canon stays honest.

Archive summaries — folded chunks become structured EVENTS / FACTS / THREADS summaries with tags, injected into every prompt. The past gets compressed, never evicted.

Scene anchor — who's present, where, when, what's at stake. One fixed point to stop the "wait, where are we?" drift.

Tagged retrieval — a cheap matcher pulls verbatim chunks of the original text back into the prompt when the current scene matches. Actual scenes, not retellings.

Honest about the edges: retrieval is keyword matching, not understanding (turn 90 says "the key from the tomb," turn 45 called it "the glimmering key" — recall can miss, though the lorebook usually catches it), recall is capped in characters, and the oldest canon still gets evicted past the hard caps. Net result: roughly 10× the memory horizon on the same 6k context, ~70–80% of what a perfect system could do.

The practical test: turn 60 referencing turn 3 now works. That used to be impossible, not merely unlikely.

Full writeup: Perchance for Humans

(Built entirely by prompting — I'm not a coder; the AI assistant wrote all of this for me.)

Play as any nation from recent history or as a tribe lost in the past; your decisions are interpreted by the AI ​​and have real consequences.

P.S. I'm posting this here because I got tired of trying to get it published in the public section of Perchance; I don't know what I'm doing wrong to prevent it from being published there.

Does anyone know why my generators aren't being published? They are set to public mode and have just been updated; they don't show up in search results either—people can only access them if I share the link.

Trying to copy and paste multiple paragraphs into a story generator body but every time I change tab's, the highlighted copied paragraphs are compressed into summaries. I don't like that since it breaks good story telling. So what can I do to disable that summary comprehension at least?
