addedHey everyone! Just pushed a new update that makes the game smoother, smarter, and a little easier on your machine. Here’s what’s new:
changed🔊 Voice Recognition Overhaul Swapped out the old local voice model (it was kinda greedy with your CPU) for AWS Transcribe—a top-tier, real-time transcription system. It’s faster, way more accurate, and doesn’t hog your system resources. Win-win.
added👄 New Lip Sync System Out with the homebrew animation code, in with a slick new 3rd-party lip sync library. It looks way better and gives characters some extra life. You’ll see what I mean.
changed🖥️ Performance Boosts Did some under-the-hood graphics optimization so things should run smoother, especially on lower-end PCs. Your toaster might just run it now. (No promises.)
removed🗑️ Simplified Voice Credit System Since we're still a cozy little community, I removed the complex voice credit setup. Let’s keep it simple and focus on the fun.
