importing a brain

[nilmer]

hello, i have created a new "brain" for hal, but under General options, brain tab, the only brain showing up is the default brain.


how do i add my brain?

[Larry]

The second line in you brain looks like this -
'Name=Ultra Hal 4.5 Default Brain
To add your brain you will need to change it to what ever you want to call your brain - this is what I used -
'Name=Ashlee Brain

Now on the 4th line you have -
'DataFolder=DefBrain
You will also have to change that to whatever you called the folder when you made your new brain and the folder where all it's files are...
'DataFolder=Ashlee

Good luck...

HELLO LARRY , I AM ALSO ASKING A QUESTION ABOUT SOMETHING SIMULAR . I HAVE THE NEW BRAIN NAMED AND IT HAS A FILE FOLDER NAMED TO AND THE NEW BRAIN NAME SHOWS UP IN THE LIST NEXT TO THE ULTRA HAL BRAIN DEFAULT BUT WHEN I HIGH LIGHT MY NEW BRAIN NAME (WHICH ALSO SAYS DEFAULT BRAIN)AND CLICK APPLY THEN (CLOSE ?) THEN TRY TO CHAT IT STILL HAS HAL LOADED AND GOING BY NAME OF (TINA,) (WITH HALS BRAIN)  FROM A NAME OF ONE OF MY CYBERBUDDY'S IT IS USING. HOW DO I GET MY NEW BRAIN TO ACTUALLY WORK AS THE DEFAULT ?? DO I HAVE TO CHANGE THE ACTUAL ULTRA HAL (FREE VERSION)? I WAS JUST CREATING A NEW BRAIN ON THE FOURTH LINE IT WAS BLANK . WHEN I HIGHLIGHT THE NEW BRAIN WHAT ON THE RIGHT SHOULD I HIGH LIGHT , I HAVE TRIED ULTRA HAL FILE, DENISE DAVIS FILE . WHAT SHOULD I DO THEN CLICK OPEN OR APPLY?? I HOPE WHAT I AM TRYING TO SAY IS MAKING SOME SENSE TO YOU. PLEASE HELP IF YOU CAN , I AM STILL EXPERIMENTING TRYING TO FIGURE IT ALL OUT!![]

Ok, sounds like you made a copy of the default folder (DefBrain). Did you rename it (the folder) to DENISE DAVIS or something? Within that folder, THAT DefBrain FILE, did you rename that DefBrain to DENISE DAVIS too? Assuming you have...

Then open that brain file and do what I said above - Change the 2nd and 4th lines described above. In your case, Name=DENISE DAVIS  and DataFolder=DENISE DAVIS

Everything should work... if not then I really blew it and have no idea what is wrong in your case...
