Professor Stryx General

Tycho

A general thread for Professor Stryx discussion, ideas, etc.

Eudaimonia Community Persona: "Professor Stryx"

Eudaimonia Community Scenarios:
"Office Hours (Stryx p.I)" - Just a meeting in her university faculty office.
Promo

Almost Done:
"Pain Lab (Stryx P.II)" - Skips right to the femdom medical torture stuff.
Promo

"Stryx Manor (Stryx P.III)" - You're on a jog/walk through a neighborhood near the university campus when you are caught in a thunderstorm and slip on the sidewalk in front of spooky mansion. The owner (Stryx of course) finds you, recognizes you as her student, and insist you come inside due to your injury and the dangerous storm.

I noticed that the State Tracker was created but not enabled, is that normal?
Your character looks good and consistent, especially transparent latex. Did you use a LoRA? And which checkpoint?

Thank you for contributing and creating scenarios, looking forward to the next parts!

The state tracker was leftover from trying to explicitly track/control personality traits of Stryx as she progresses from professional to mad scientist and relate it to how honest and submissive {{user}} is with her. I disabled it because it didn't work right. That may be due to the model I was using. I am using local generation and have gotten great and terrible results with testing different models. I occasionally get "<path></path>" at the end of an output. When I respond with "<path>[hint the direction I want the story to go]</path>", the scenario follows it well, but it may be immersion breaking for some users.

I generated images separately because I am used to using my local Forge setup. I haven't gotten around to uploading them as Galleries yet, but I collaged a few good ones together for the thumbnails. I was using Nova 3DCG XL checkpoint. The only Lora I was using was for the face: Gesugao | Goofy Ai. I get consistent results with "see-through clear plastic apron". "see-through" works better than "transparent" I believe because "see-through" is the Danbooru tag for that effect and I think most checkpoints were originally tagged with Danbooru tags.

Note to self: must make an appointment with Professor Stryx.
Thanks for posting this and make her catch my eye Tycho!

Alternative office thumbnail I didn't use: Office2

btw, @KairosJS, I didn't finish uploading because: I haven't looked through my console logs or recall if it is a known issues, but Gallery uploads were stalling for me if I tried uploading more the 2 - 3 images at once. I did convert everything to 90% JPGs to reduce the size.

Thanks for the report, I will check this as soon as possible.
Regarding the <path> issue, if the option "MCQ mode" is disabled, this shouldn't happen at all. I will check if the prompt is completely clean. Otherwise, it may be the model not understanding well all the instructions.

Tycho

KairosJS This does occur with "MCQ mode" disabled, but only happens occasionally and is always blank. It is literally "<path></path>" at the end of a generation.

I think you should leave it in or make it a togglable feature. I thought it was a feature or a result of leaving "OOC Message" turned on. I like the ability to steer the scenario exactly where it should go. Instead of multiple choices, I was able to just tell it what to do (being vague or suggestive if I wanted it left up to LLM's interpretation). If I respond with "<path>[hint the direction I want the story to go]</path>" or "<path>[description of the current room]</path>", it did exactly what I wanted it to do and understood my "hints" almost perfectly.

(Another related "btw", when testing this scenario recently, I did have a lot of responses that were cut off. I don't recall needing "Remove incomplete sentance" enabled before. I think that fixed it. It could be the models I am trying or the fact that I use 12288 context length. )

Pain Lab is live. I have ran it for a few cycles and made some tweaks, but have not proofread the whole text of it with fresh eyes yet. Treat it like a beta test and suggest changes or fixes.

Remember, you can make your own personal copy to modify and test out changes. I am open incorporating ideas from your variant into the main Scenario if I like it.
