# example 1a, generate a new subgraph from the entire plotto conflict graph
python markovgenerator.py -t outputfile.json plottoconflicts.json
# example 1b, interactive story telling using the plot subgraph and tv tropes hints
python -W ignore storyteller.py outputfile.json tvtropes.json tvtropesmodel.bin plottomodel.bin
The storyteller is interactive, it understands the following commands:
- next [cue_text]
- hint [cue_text]
- quit
next
uses the vector model from plottomodel.bin
to find the next story beat based on the given cue text.
hint
uses the tvtropesmodel.bin
to find an appropriate trope.
pip install pocketsphinx==0.1.15
pip install PyAudio==0.2.11
Improvisors on stage can cue the system to provide the next plot point or the next hint. The improvisors provide the dialogue for each plot clause.
