Ultra Hal 7.0 / GRETTAcuriosity plugin problem

« on: May 16, 2010, 11:48:52 am »

Do any of the plug-ins use the "timer" function? If it is used more than one time in plug-ins it will cause an error.

The area that he lives in has been known for over 50 years as tornado alley. You might find it on some national weather maps. I used to live close to that area and that is how I found that out.
There are several areas in that part of the country that have the same desiganation.
While on a trip to Kansas once we traveled down one main road only to find out the next morning that a tornado had crossed that road about 5 minutes after we had been there. No warning as the weather is normally ultra calm just before the storm.

Ultra Hal 7.0 / Hal Strongly Refuses... author's last name

« on: May 05, 2010, 03:36:21 am »

When you put a period after the "M" Hal assumes that is the end of the name. Try it again with "John M whatever" as see if it gets it right. Oh I forgot the last name of the person you mentioned.
Hal is smart but don't assume that it understands all of our statements.

Programming using the Ultra Hal Brain Editor / HAL Blank Responses

« on: May 04, 2010, 02:57:42 pm »

In response to your first statement to Hal and its blank response. Hal has no memory of its previousw statements so of course it sis no know how to respond to you statement.
The majority of blank replies form Hal is due to its owner making statements that Hal has no response to simply because of no understnding what is being asked or said.

Ultra Hal 7.0 / Appointment book issue

Just a suggestion. The next time you turn on your PC check to see what the windows calendar is set to. Sometimes it can be reset by outside software.

Ultra Hal 7.0 / Ultra Hal 6.2 won't start

« on: May 01, 2010, 04:04:20 am »

I will repeat myself. With Vista operating system you must get Vistas permission to run Hal. I am not sure how this is done but it has been mentioned in previous post, just seargh through pervious post on the subject and I am sure you will find the answer.

Ultra Hal 7.0 / Ultra Hal 6.2 won't start

« on: April 29, 2010, 11:58:00 am »

There are a couple of other things that might prevent Hal from starting and one is that you may have picked up a virus or you may not have had a good download of Hao inthe first place. A tiny electrical spike of 1/10 of a second could cause a bad download of Hal and would not necessarily be noticed by the operator.
Suggestions:
1. Turn off anti-virus software then try to download Hal again.
2. If your operating system is the new one by MS, Vista. then search the system for comments about to get around its hangups.

Sorry for any confusion, or not giving enough detail. I was not meaning my avatar, I do have one of those. It is of my tattoo. I was meaning my Ultra Hal character aka Trinity. when you talk to your Hal on Facebook there is no character, it is like text messaging no face to see who you are talking too. I think it would be cool if we can have our characters be shown while we or others talk to our Hals.

I think you need to go back and look again. Ultra Hal is alive and well on Facebook. I don't know who or what Trinity is but if Hal can work there then I expect so can Trinity. It just takes talent to get it working.

Delete all the plugings that you installed and start with a clean Hal once again. Then add on plugin at a time and test it. Sometimes one plugin will prevent others from working and that includes Hal.

Or will it be a .NET component, or will you leave it in its current scattered state.... meaning only C++ certified programmers will be able to use it?

Just curious... and maybe a little exited too.

great question ^^
it would be nice if friends on my facebook hal could see my character.

Ultra Hal 7.0 / Problem with Hal with Speach Recognition

« on: April 23, 2010, 03:38:51 pm »

I've been having a problem using the Haptek Character body_female (Jiggly) with Hal.  I'd just found the problem is related to using speech reconition.  When speach recognition is checked, the breasts and upper arms make quick short movements, the character has to be moved back to see this.

Sounds like video card conflicts to  me.

I did the same thing to Hal 5.0 2 or 3 years ago. I used AUTO-IDLE and if no one said anything to Hal within a specific amount of time he would choose something from the data- base.
