Tease AI General Discussion

[MeaCulpaUK]

Hiya - Fantastic work and you (rather my new Mistress) has successfully stolen the last few days!

Couple of (probably silly) questions and probably related.

In 1080 mode, the window still doesn't cover my whole screen, what am I doing wrong!

and

The programme seems quite selective about which of my folders contain pictures. I've set up a directory for the Domme images and put all of the relevant pics into separate sub-directories, but I keep getting told there are no image files in there....

Thanks in advance,

Mea

I'm just wondering if it's possible, if when changing the Domme Personality on the dropdown menu, that it also changes the main avatar Domme picture and Domme name to the selected Domme chosen? If I open different Dommes from the dropdown menu, it maintains the same name and picture.

I'm currently flicking back and forth on a couple of different personalities that I am creating, and the settings for each appear to stay the same until I save a text file, which then keeps the Domme Settings. But it would be nice if the avatar settings would stick too, obviously while still allowing them to be manually customisable.

I'd also like to know if it is possible to do the same when linking to video and image folders? So that whichever Domme personality is opened, it ties all the links to that Domme specifically?

[teasinot]

Some small suggestions :

Would be good if perhaps every 10 minutes or so, the avatar pic changed to another one in the same folder at random. To simulate the domme changing her picture now and again.

Is it possible for the cursor to always be selected in the chat box? If you click off the window for example and then go reopen the Tease AI window, you have to click the mouse in the small chat box again in order for the chat box to be selected again. I know it's a small suggestion, but it would be a good convenience.

It's working fine for now, but I know I'll have problems with downloading future links. It's getting worse recently, to the point when I can't download new updates.

If anyone can recommend a good alternative, I'll see about using it with every update so there will be two download options. I really like Mega a lot, so I don't really know about anything else

Well github has a nice way to upload binaries releases aswell

https://help.github.com/articles/creating-releases/

Uh...dumb question... not that I have anything against the other file distribution methods...but why not just use the "Upload attachment" feature right here on the Milovana forum boards? The option appears below the message box when you post a reply to a message thread.

I've never noticed that option before (has it been recently enabled?), but ark235 used it to post some vocabulary on the TeaseAI Scripts Thread and I had no trouble downloading the ZIP archive. It is a small one, however....is there an attachment file size limit?

Call to anyone familiar with git:

Create a .gitignore as others have pointed out and stick the lines shown in it (it's a standard .NET ignore file).

As to what to do with your project I think:

1) Fork the project leaving you you to carry on developing the existing version and keeping a full featured version available.

2) In the forked version, pull out the good bits (the Domme & scripting algorithm I guess), re-write the rest over time.

3) Add some structure, some tests, clean APIs, etc. etc.

4) Rebuild a modern UI in WPF rather than WinForms.

5) Release a core "Tease-AI 2.0" with the new UI, the core domme logic and very little else

6) Engage with the Milovana community and find out which bits of the enormous feature set should be ported over first.

7) Port over features one by one with collaborations and discussions over exactly how it should work. Possibly have more than one dev working on each feature.

For your Git model, keep it simple. So one Master branch which is the released code, tagged at each release point, one Develop branch where the next release is built. Feature branches for each feature being ported/developed. But Git is a complicated subject and it's *very* easy to make a right mess.

I would love to help with all of the above, although I suspect I will not have the time; I work long hours and spend most of my weekends asleep (I have MS). Does this get me anything sympathy from Tease-AI? No it does not!

I shall try to get some time and have a look at your code this weekend.

PS also switch to C# as well obviously. vb makes me cry

[d3vi0n]

is there any more information or documentation how scripts work? for example: which #keywords, variables, @commands are available? how can i utilize image tags in scripts or conditions? are there ways for more complex descision trees (or conditions) in scripts (for example: "if edged x times then..." or "if picture has tag x then...")?

[1885]

I hope it's just your way of talking and you don't really feel that way.

It must be, because I don't mean to come across like I'm being down on myself

When I say sorry, I just mean if I had the foresight of other people getting involved in the coding, I would have done it a little differently (consistent naming, better organizing, going back to clean up overly complicated code when I gained the experience to do it better, creating functions for common events when I didn't see the need to bother, etc)

While I definitely appreciate the words of encouragement, believe me that I feel good about what I'm doing and the work I continue to do. It's just a bit of levity when I say I don't feel good about what I've done to the people who try to wade through my code at this point

In 1080 mode, the window still doesn't cover my whole screen, what am I doing wrong!

1080 mode just means that 1080 is the minimum vertical resolution for that UI size, it's currently not meant to cover the whole screen.

The programme seems quite selective about which of my folders contain pictures. I've set up a directory for the Domme images and put all of the relevant pics into separate sub-directories, but I keep getting told there are no image files in there....

I'm going to go into a little more detail than necessary here, in case anyone else has any kind of trouble with the domme images, this may be able to help

When you set up the domme directories, there's two kinds of errors you could be notified about:

The first is "There are no directories in the specified Domme Images Directory folder."

If you get this message, that means you need to select a folder that has multiple folders in it, each one with a different set of pictures for the domme

The other error message is "There are no images in the specified folder."

If you get this message, it means that Tease AI has selected a folder from the directory you selected, but was not able to find any png, jpg, jpeg, bmp or gif files within it.

Can you verify that all the folders in the path you selected contain at least one picture in them? If you have any folders that don't, they might get selected and cause this error

Let me know if that's the case, and I'll see what I can do to help if it isn't

I'm just wondering if it's possible, if when changing the Domme Personality on the dropdown menu, that it also changes the main avatar Domme picture and Domme name to the selected Domme chosen? If I open different Dommes from the dropdown menu, it maintains the same name and picture.

Yeah, this is possible. I'll put it in the suggestion list

I'm currently flicking back and forth on a couple of different personalities that I am creating, and the settings for each appear to stay the same until I save a text file, which then keeps the Domme Settings. But it would be nice if the avatar settings would stick too, obviously while still allowing them to be manually customisable.

I'd also like to know if it is possible to do the same when linking to video and image folders? So that whichever Domme personality is opened, it ties all the links to that Domme specifically?

Once the settings menu is finalized (or close enough to it at least), I'll add the option to save global custom settings. It's just a really tedious process to do, so I want to make sure everything is close to how the final version will be.

Would be good if perhaps every 10 minutes or so, the avatar pic changed to another one in the same folder at random. To simulate the domme changing her picture now and again.

That's a pretty vain domme Most people tend to stick with one avatar for a long time. I can see switching the avatar for different personalities, but presentation wise I don't see why anyone would switch their own avatar multiple times in a session

Is it possible for the cursor to always be selected in the chat box? If you click off the window for example and then go reopen the Tease AI window, you have to click the mouse in the small chat box again in order for the chat box to be selected again. I know it's a small suggestion, but it would be a good convenience.

Good call, I'll make it so the text entry field gets focus when the main window gains focus

Uh...dumb question... not that I have anything against the other file distribution methods...but why not just use the "Upload attachment" feature right here on the Milovana forum boards? The option appears below the message box when you post a reply to a message thread.

Well I'll be damned, I never thought of that The file sizes might get too big eventually, but for now that could definitely work

is there any more information or documentation how scripts work? for example: which #keywords, variables, @commands are available? how can i utilize image tags in scripts or conditions? are there ways for more complex descision trees (or conditions) in scripts (for example: "if edged x times then..." or "if picture has tag x then...")?

First off, congrats. This is a fantastic idea, and great execution.

Just a thought - have you publicly posted the code out on github so we can help you debug? I'm a software developer by trade and would be more than willing to help contribute if you're open to it.

Nice work. =)

1885 is fairly new to programming, and so you are a lot more apt to explain to him what you can do for him than him guessing how people could help him.
Here me take on where the project can go but a lot of you are professional developer, which I'm not, and would have a better view on the whole thing, so it would be great if you could take some time to assess where the project can go.

[kopal37]

My approach would be to start by trying to clear the app of existing bugs - it's missing some basic error handling/recovery logic as it currently stands. I've seen numerous error screens pop up, but it's kind of hard for me to isolate the causing behavior without stepping through it. Also, the "URL Files" tab for instance could use some minor tweaking to allow optional interrupt of downloads that have been started... (To prevent the need to force quit the app if you don't want to let it finish)

I think his approach thus far makes sense - the public beta is a great way to flush out bugs quickly and improve stability. I would wait until I was comfortable with stability of current functionality before thinking about the next feature set, though.

[1885]

Nope, still having problems with the program, post detached metronome. As soon as I get to a Start Stroking point, the following pops up...

I worked with DNied in pm's to get to the bottom of this issue, and I want to leave a little information about our findings because at least a couple of people have had this issue:

When you extract the Tease AI Open Beta, make all the folders in the root directory are getting extracted properly. As well as the executable and config files, you should have the following folders:

Audio
Chatlogs
Images
Scripts
System
Video

If you're missing any of those folders, the file did not extract correctly and you will have issues with the program. Both times this has been reported to me, using winRar to extract the files solved the problem. I don't know if this is an issue of me using winRar to compress the files, or other people not using winRar, but if you're having any kind of issues make sure that you have all the folders you're supposed to.

If you're missing any and don't know how to get it set up correctly, just let me know and I'll do what I can to get you going

First off, congrats. This is a fantastic idea, and great execution.

Just a thought - have you publicly posted the code out on github so we can help you debug? I'm a software developer by trade and would be more than willing to help contribute if you're open to it.

Trying to wrap my head around github has been a literal nightmare, and for the time being I"m happy to defer to the expertise of others in terms of organizing what needs to be done

I posted the project on githib back on page 21 https://github.com/Milo1885/Tease-AI

Keep in mind I barely know what I'm doing with git. I don't know if I'm supposed to put the master on github, make a branch and upload that to github, if I'm supposed to work on something other than the master, when to upload, this has been filling my head full of fuck the last few days. I'm not even sure I know what half the stuff I just said means

PS also switch to C# as well obviously. vb makes me cry

I've gathered that C# is not a great deal different to VB, but I can 100% guarantee I cannot code this project in C# personally. If switching to C# means I have to start using C#, that's no good

[1885]

Also, the "URL Files" tab for instance could use some minor tweaking to allow optional interrupt of downloads that have been started...

I have a cancel button on that page, it will take whatever it has so far and create the URL with that when it stops the process.

So you do. I guess what was happening then, is while downloading images via tumblr (in bulk - 1k +) it hangs periodically. In C#, I could tell you how to create a separate thread for that to happen on, but I'm learning VB myself.
