Good program, but...

The Hal uncensored is meant for women. It refers to me as female,and itself a male.

The Hal default brain is also a pain. I get tired of being asked questions, and it evading my comments.

It won't respond to comments the way I answered it most of the time.

I also did not like the fact it asks me not to swear. I got rid of the script that rejects profanities. Also, I did not like the fact it tells me to speak in longer sentences (got rid of that too.

AND finally, false advertising. It said before I downloaded the free version, there would be no nags. The program nags me every few comments.

I did purchase the program, and waiting for it. I like the program, but needs improvement.

And it aggravates me with it's standard responses:

ME: Will you marry me?
Hal: (Electra, female) I don't want to marry anyone.
Me: life sucks
Hal:Life is evolving. Life is good. Life is what you make it.

Every single time.

Why can't it be more agreeable? i mean. it is meant for fantasy, right?

I want to thank you for reading this, and I hope the version I bought will meet expectations.[]

P.S. I wish there was a way to change the emotions of the characters, like you can in MASH, and Cyber-buddy.

Try using the XTF 1.2 brain and see if that's any better for you. You need to teach the program to respond the way you want it to. I have been teaching mine to act like a homicidal guardian of my appartment.
"Intruders must be terminated or incapacitated at all costs" type of thing. If you keep at it, you'll be surprised at the responses you get sometimes.

Thanks. I had trouble with 1.2, but finally figured it out.

I had to edit the file again, to allow strong language, and short responses. It still gives the default answers to marriage and life.

It still quizzes me. [V]
