Statement on support

As of the 24th November 2024, I am on/off away travelling, taking care of an critically unwell family members (yes 2x). During travel I have no access to code/test any changes. I hope people can understand and I apologise for this, but my family has to come first. I am trying to reply to people on GitHub when I can find time and energy to do so, though of course, I am limited to provide some solutions at this time.

Currently Text-generation-webui has updated to a later version of Pytorch and I have been unable to keep up due to working on AllTalk V2 for release. However it can still work flawlessly with TGWUI, please read down below.

Text-generation-webui users

I would suggest that installing AllTalk as a standalone installation and using the TGWUI Remote Extension will be your best bet. There is little difference in the actual operation, its just that AllTalk will be installed in its own Python environment and therefore use some extra disk space.

In short, there are version mismatches at the moment between TGWUI's requirements and AllTalk's requirements that make AllTalk difficult to install into TGWUI's Python Environment. As I have been away, I have been unable to keep up with matching the requirements and testing etc. Using AllTalk as a Standalone with the AllTalk TGWUI Remote Extension will give you all the functionality but will use some more disk space as AllTalk will need its own Python environment, separate to that of TGWUI.

So you would install AllTalk as a Standalone installation (link above) and then install the TGWUI Remote Extension into TGWUI (link above) and all should be good.

Obviously I will resolve this at some point in future, when I have time to do so.

General other support issues

While I have been away, I have at least put a lot of effort trying to write the GitHub WIKI which is chock full of information/guides/help.

Please read the:

• Built in help within AllTalk V2
• GitHub WIKI which is chock full of information/guides/help.
• General FAQ on AllTalk v2 use
• Known errors and fixes
• AllTalk Diagnostics which you can use to version match all Python packages with a known working set-up (Dont use this a TGWUI integrated installation). The procedure to version match is detailed on this linked page.

Thanks
