Major Update: Next-Gen AI Performance with Gemma 4

Hello everyone,

The Gemma 4 update is now live for My Summer Love: Memories.

Below is a detailed overview of the most significant improvements compared to the previous version (Gemma 3):

• Enhanced Prompt Adherence:
• In Story Mode, script delivery is now significantly more natural and seamless.
• Role consistency has been improved, making it much harder for characters to break character (e.g., when asked about future events or upcoming characters).
• If you specify in the personality file that you do not want censorship, it is successfully removed (at least for adult-themed content, which is what it was tested on).
• Conversation formatting has been stabilized, ensuring the parser accurately identifies dialogue, thoughts, and emotions without execution errors.
• Fix for Save-State Degradation:
• Previously, reloading a saved session resulted in a noticeable decline in conversation quality, leading to repetitive dialogues and diminished reasoning capabilities. This update ensures that restored sessions consistently maintain original quality.
• Resolution of User Role Assumption:
• The issue where the model would mistakenly assume the player's role during interaction was removed.

In-Progress Development (Known minor Issues):

• Thinking Mode Leakage: Because the new model relies heavily on an internal thinking process, reasoning logic can occasionally leak into the visible thought output (e.g., “The player said OK, so I will trigger option A”). I will remove this behavior.
• Memories Optimization: Gemma 4 executes Sliding Window internally; external programming is not currently supported, so requiring periodic memory restructuring during loading screens. I have implemented a conservative parameter that limits the volume of retained memories. The next update I will introduce a option menu to increase memory allocation for users with higher-spec hardware.

Please, if you have a moment, I would really appreciate it if you left a sincere review.

I welcome your feedback and suggestions in the discussion forums. Thank you for playing My Summer Love!

Sincerely,

Soul Shell
