All news Players around this date Read on Steam

Hi everyone, v1.8.5 has been released:

Conversation Improvements Further Improved chat continuity across the built-in small model, other local models, and cloud AI providers, helping CielChan better remember the current conversation, recent observations, and who said what during ongoing chats. Additional further improvements have also been made when conversing during Watch Together/Observation modes.

Voice and Companion Web Improvements Improved voice playback in the Companion web/phone interface so complete spoken TTS responses, including longer Kokoro messages, play through reliably without missing lines or stopping early.

Additional Improvements and Bug Fixes
Refined conversation, voice playback, and interface behavior to provide more reliable responses, smoother speech, and a more consistent chat experience.

The update will be live on Compact branches + other web platforms shortly.

Thanks, everyone!
