AI Options

Choose AI Option

CreatureChat requires an AI / LLM (large language model) to generate text (characters and chat).

  1. Free & Local: Use open-source and free-to-use LLMs without any API fees. [Difficulty: Hard]
  2. Bring Your Own Key: Use your own API key from providers like OpenAI or Groq. [Difficulty: Medium]
  3. Token Shop: Supports CreatureChat by purchasing tokens from the developers. [Difficulty: Easy]
1. Free & Local

CreatureChat fully supports free and open-source LLMs. To get started:

  • An HTTP endpoint compatible with the OpenAI Chat Completion JSON syntax is required. We highly recommend using:
    • Ollama & LiteLLM as your HTTP proxy.
    • LiteLLM Features:
      • Supports over 100+ LLMs (e.g., Anthropic, VertexAI, HuggingFace, Google Gemini, and Ollama).
      • Proxies them through a local HTTP endpoint compatible with CreatureChat.
      • Note: Running a local LLM on your computer requires a powerful GPU.
  • Set the local HTTP endpoint in-game:
    • /creaturechat url set "http://ENTER-YOUR-HTTP-ENDPOINT-FROM-LITE-LLM"
    • /creaturechat model set ENTER-MODEL-NAME
    • /creaturechat timeout set 360
  • Additional help can be found in the #locall-llm-info channel on our Discord.
2. Bring Your Own Key

For those already using a third-party API (e.g., OpenAI, Groq):

  • Integrate your own API key for seamless connectivity.
  • Costs depend on the provider’s usage-based pricing model.
  • By default, CreatureChat uses the OpenAI endpoint and gpt-3.5-turbo model, known for its balance of low cost and fast performance.
  • Be aware that OpenAI’s developer API does not include free usage. Please review the OpenAI pricing for detailed information.
  • To create an OpenAI API key, visit https://platform.openai.com/api-keys, and use the + Create new secret key button.
  • Set the API key & model in-game:
    • /creaturechat key set <YOUR-SECRET-KEY-HERE>
    • /creaturechat model set gpt-3.5-turbo
3. Token Shop

Supports CreatureChat by purchasing tokens from the developers:

  • Easy setup with simple token packs, created for CreatureChat users.
  • More info is available in the #token-shop channel on our Discord.
  • Set the token-shop API key in-game:
    • /creaturechat key set <YOUR-SECRET-KEY-HERE>
