Update 0.9.0: Voice interruption, new Anna persona and reworked animations

Desktop Companion · published · build 26362635

Hi everyone!

Version 0.9.0 is out. Here's what's new:


New features

  • New default persona for Anna: the default character now has a more polished personality, better suited to a companion and AI assistant for your first steps with the app.
  • Voice interruption: you can now interrupt a reply simply by talking over it. Disabled by default.
  • Random auto-speak interval: auto-speak can now be set to a range, for example a random delay between 30 and 90 seconds.
  • Gendered animations: based on your feedback, animations now match the model's gender. Female is the default, and you can change it per VRM model in Characters > Models. New female animations in a JRPG style have been added, and some motion capture animations that moved too much and didn't look right have been removed.

Fixes and minor improvements

  • Tools: in your whitelisted folders, your companion can now read and edit files, not just list and open them.
  • Max tokens: the limit has been raised from 600 to 1000.
  • Fixed a bug in text mode where a message was sent automatically after 5 minutes, even with auto-speak disabled.
  • Auto-speak now also works in text input mode.
