Studio User Guide

Welcome to the User Guide for Inworld Studio.

This series of guides covers everything you need to create an AI character, from basic elements such as crafting their description and voice, to advanced concepts such as establishing the scene they inhabit and knowledge they have access to.

Workspace Setup​

Before creating an AI character, you first need to set up your workspace where your characters are created and stored.

See the Workspace Setup guide for instructions establishing your Inworld Studio workspace.

Components of an AI Character​

The components of an Inworld AI character fall into two broad categories: Basic Configurations and Advanced Configurations.

Basic Configurations​

A character's Basic Configurations determine their core characteristics such as who they are, what they look like, and how they speak.

Basic

The Basic elements of a character include:

  • Avatar sets both the 2D and 3D models associated with the character.
  • Identity defines basic information such as the character's name, role, and interests.
  • Core Description defines basic details about the character's backstory and personality.
  • Motivations determines the character's primary driving forces, aspirations, and motivations.
  • Flaws defines the character's shortcomings, insecurities, and fears.
  • Dialogue Style defines the character's speaking style and vocabulary.
  • Narrated Actions enables or disables the use of narrated actions in text responses.
  • Voice sets the character's audible speaking voice.

Advanced Configurations​

A character's Advanced Configurations fine-tune aspects of a character, such as what they know, what emotions they experience, and their location in the world.

Advanced

The Advanced elements of a character include:

  • Personality controls a character's emotions, personality, and general mood.
  • Knowledge & Cognition establishes what the character knows.
  • Goals determines what a character wants to accomplish and allows you to set triggers for specific responses.
  • Scenes defines a character's immediate surroundings, placing them within the world.
  • Safety locks certain types of responses and topics, preventing the character from engaging with them.
  • Long-Term Memory controls how a character learns and recalls previous conversations and actions.
  • Relationships defines how a character progresses in building a friendship or romance with the player.

Creating a New Character​

To create a new character, open the Characters tab along the left side of the Studio interface.

Characters

Then, press the Create New Character button in the top-right corner of the workspace.

New Character

A pop-up window appears. Enter your character’s Name and Core Description.

The Core Description here is optional, you can enter and modify this description later within the character’s profile.

Description

Then, press Create to create your character.

Auto-Generate Character​

Checking the Auto-Generate box before saving your character uses AI to automatically fill in a series of unique character details to match the Name and Core Description you gave.

Autogen

This can speed up character generation by establishing a baseline starting point to many settings that you can later adjust and edit if desired.
