# L3-Super-Nova-RP-8B

This is a role-playing model designed with the goal of good creativity and intelligence to improve advance role-playing experiences. The aim of L3-Super-Nova-RP-8B is to be good at Chain-of-Thoughts, summarizing information, and recognizing emotions. It also includes data about the human body and mind in an attempt to enhance understanding and interaction within role-playing scenarios.

The model was developed using various methods in multiple merging steps. To boost creativity, it used techniques to strengthen and adjust its output which was paried with the newly released merge method. All merge calculations were done in float32 format and then converted to the usual bfloat16 during merging.

## Presets

***
### Text Gen
The Current good staring preset for this model. **Subject to change.**
**Settings by yours truly**
```yaml
Top K: 40
Min P: 0.075
Repetition Penalty: 1.01
# Don't make this higher, DRY handles the bulk of Squashing Repetition.
# This is just to lightly nudge the bot to move the plot forward
Rep Pen Range: 2048 # Don't make this higher either.
Presence Penalty: 0.03 # Minor encouragement to use synonyms. Don't make this higher maybe?
Smoothing Factor: 0.3

DRY Repetition Penalty:
  Multiplier: 0.8
  Base: 1.75
  Allowed Length: 2
  Penalty Range: 4096

Dynamic Temperature:
  Min Temp: 0.5
  Max Temp: 1.25
  Exponent: 0.85
```

***
### Context/Instruct
[Virt-io's SillyTavern Presets](https://huggingface.co/Virt-io/SillyTavern-Presets) work really well with this.

***
***
## Usage Info

Some of the **INT** models were chosen with some of SillyTavern's features in mind, such as emotion based sprites, dynamic music, and pretty much any feature, extension, or STscript that uses sumarization. With that said, it's recommended to use SillyTavern as your front-end.

While not required, I'd recommend building the story string prompt with Lorebooks rather than using the Advance Formatting menu. The only thing you really need in the Story String prompt within Advance Formatting is the system prompt. Doing it this way tends to keep the character more consistent as the RP goes on as all character card info is locked to a certain depth rather than getting further and further away within the context.

## Quants

## Merge Info

The merge methods used were **Ties**, **Dare Ties**, **Breadcrumbs Ties**, **SLERP**, and **DELLA**.

The model was finished off with both **Merge Densification**, and **Negative Weighting** techniques to boost creativity.

All merging steps had the merge calculations done in **float32** and were output as **bfloat16**.

### [Open LLM Leaderboard](https://huggingface.co/spaces/open-llm-leaderboard/open_llm_leaderboard)

**Explaination for AI RP newbies:** IFEval is the most important evaluation for RP AIs as it determines how well it can follow OOC, Lorebooks, and most importantly character cards.
The rest don't matter. At least not nearly as much as IFEval.
