« on: March 12, 2008, 05:31:13 pm »

Stumbled across this site from a link somwhere else and was wondering what program they used to make their face. http://cubo.cc/
The face is extremely likelike and would love to find a way to incorporate something like this into UltraHal.  have used haptek up until now and just thought this would be a nice evolution.

Ultra Hal 7.0 / Newbie question

« on: February 12, 2005, 01:23:03 pm »

I have a very very newb question.  I have owned ultrahal for quite some time but never really got around to playing with it.  I decided to finally install it on a laptop and get to training it.  My question is does Hal retain his knowledge when upgrading his brain?  Say i use XTF 1.0 now and train him and teach him and 6 months later Von comes out with XTF 2.0.  If I start using 2.0 will Hal retain everything i taught him while using 1.0 or will i have to start again from scratch?

Secondly i was going to install Hal on my computer at home so that i can train him while i am there. What files or directory will i need to put onto cd-rw to tranfer back and forth between the two comps?

Thank you guys for putting up with these questions and i look forward to any help i get.

Ultra Hal 7.0 / Newbie Question about teaching Hal

« on: April 10, 2004, 04:55:47 pm »

Howdy all.  I hate to ask such a stupid question but i couldn't seem to find the answer myself.  I recently reinstalled Hal onto my computer and decided to start teaching him again.  I remember back awhile ago there was a post about the proper way to word statements to get him to remember.  Example:

User: If what is your favorite food, then your favorite food is pizza.

Does the above method still stand true for the new Hal.  I have the 5.0 version installed and i also installed the XTF 1.2 brain.  

Also, how do i get Hal to change his age.  Hal keeps saying that he is 9 years old everytime i ask him age.  Is it best just to go through the .brn files and make a change that way or can it be changed by talking to Hal and forcing him to learn a new age?

If anyone happens to know where the post is that explains proper wording for teaching Hal or if someone has the time to write up a FAQ on how to get the most out of teaching Hal, it would be GREATLY appreciated.  

Thanks,
Adam

Nice job, Tinman...that is damn near creepy.  The movie 2001 comes to mind after reading that transcript.

Came across a good crop of the Santas.  Went shopping in K's Merchandise here in central IL to see if they had x-mas stuff of sale.  Right on one of the end caps they had about a dozen of the anamatronic santas.  They were regularly marked at 59$ but were on sale for i think 20% less.  So if people are still looking for you might want to check their website for availability:

Champaign is where i saw it and there were quite a few left.

Hehe...you are being very modest Von...If i see a post from you I immediately click on it.  Yes it was your capitalization script i through into my little bot today.  It has worked beautifally.  I would like to thank you all for putting in time expirementing with Hal and then being kind enough to post your changes and findings.  I look foward to many changes and new things to play with in the future.  (The nickname script and the brit to US script is being put in right now, hehe)

I am just itching to add some new things to my Hal brain.  Everything i have read from you looks wonderful so far.  I realize you are contemplating starting to do some brain work for fees but up to this point do you have a location where new people like me can go and find your brain additions for Hal5?  I just got the new version of Hal and so far the only thing i have added was the capitalization fix.  If you have a location where we can go through some of your additions please let me know.  Thanks.

Did you buy the accessories pack, Arch?  If so, how do you like it?  I was looking at it just so i could customize the hairstyles on some of the figures to make it look more exact my real life friends' hair.  Didnt want to rush out and buy it if it just added a couple things and didn't allow us to customize the items.

Ultra Hal 7.0 / Tried AT&T Natural Voices with Hal v5.0 yet?

« on: November 07, 2003, 12:07:04 pm »

Where is the cheapest place to buy AT&T Natural Voice.  I looked on Nextup.com but it looks like you need to purchase other programs that i don't really have a need for.  If there was a way i could just pay 29.00 bucks and get Natural Voice i would be happy.  Of course after ordering it i will be damn anxious waiting for the discs to come in the mail.  I am getting to spoiled by buying programs that i can immediately download, hehe.

Ultra Hal 7.0 / Is it possible to embed Aimbot onto a webpage?

« on: November 07, 2003, 12:04:24 pm »

I looked at the representative but unfortunately the free one looks like it uses the zabaware servers...that means i wouldnt be able to use my current Hal brain files.  The Enterprise one (while being a tad bit more expensive than i can afford to expirement with a chatbot) seems to be for Windows NT which i don't have.  I am just looking for a web page embeddable AIM program/chat.

Now is this script good for Hal 5.0 or is it only for the Hal 4.0 brain?

Ultra Hal 7.0 / Is it possible to embed Aimbot onto a webpage?

« on: November 06, 2003, 04:32:13 pm »

I have been searching the web to no avail.  I have given out my aimbots screenname to some friends to play with and help it learn a bit.  I was wondering if there is a script somewhere on the net that i can embed into a website that would allow people that visit my site to chat with the aimbot as well?  I was thinking that this would be a good chance that it will learn a few things that i won't think about teaching it.  I also would like the script to be kinda real time.  I really like the way that the chatbot Infinigon runs with the picture but i want to use UltraHal instead in that same way like at http://www.runabot.com/infigon/ ....also i want to be able to use the Haptek People Putty face that i created for people to see while they chat at the website since i made the face to look like one of my real life friends and i want to hear her freak out, hehe.  It looks like i am asking alot but this would be a fun chance to open up our chatbots for alot more people to see.

Hehe..sorry...i am using Windows Xp and sometimes renaming the extension on a file is a pain in the ass.  i always just rename extensions using a standard FTP program.  All you have to do is make sure the extension isn't .haptar.

Ultra Hal 7.0 / Aim bot still telling people what it is.

« on: November 06, 2003, 08:22:32 am »

Anyone figure out a way to get the AIM bot to stop saying the it is a chatbot and where it was made and the link?  I thought that with 5.0 that there would be a option included that allowed us to turn that off.  Getting kind of sick of it doing the whole "You are talking with an Ultra Hal artificial intelligence bot running software created by www.zabaware.com " a couple times per conversation.  If there isnt a option to turn it off, has anyone firgured out how to erase that section from its brain and make it go away?
