• Use the repository URL https://github.com/undreamai/LLMUnity.git and click Add

How to use

First you will setup the LLM for your game 🏎:

• Create an empty GameObject.<br>In the GameObject Inspector click Add Component and select the LLM script.
• Download one of the default models with the Download Model button (~GBs).<br>Or load your own .gguf model with the Load model button (see LLM model management).

Then you can setup each of your characters as follows 🙋‍♀️:

• Create an empty GameObject for the character.<br>In the GameObject Inspector click Add Component and select the LLMCharacter script.
• Define the role of your AI in the Prompt. You can define the name of the AI (AI Name) and the player (Player Name).
• (Optional) Select the LLM constructed above in the LLM field if you have more than one LLM GameObjects.

You can also adjust the LLM and character settings according to your preference (see Options).

In your script you can then use it as follows 🦄:

using LLMUnity;

public class MyScript {
  public LLMCharacter llmCharacter;
  
  void HandleReply(string reply){
    // do something with the reply from the model
    Debug.Log(reply);
  }
  
  void Game(){
    // your game function
    ...
    string message = "Hello bot!";
    _ = llmCharacter.Chat(message, HandleReply);
    ...
  }
}

You can also specify a function to call when the model reply has been completed.<br> This is useful if the Stream option is enabled for continuous output from the model (default behaviour):

  void ReplyCompleted(){
    // do something when the reply from the model is complete
    Debug.Log("The AI replied");
  }
  
  void Game(){
    // your game function
    ...
    string message = "Hello bot!";
    _ = llmCharacter.Chat(message, HandleReply, ReplyCompleted);
    ...
  }

To stop the chat without waiting for its completion you can use:

    llmCharacter.CancelRequests();

• Finally, in the Inspector of the GameObject of your script, select the LLMCharacter GameObject created above as the llmCharacter property.

That's all ✨! <br><br> You can also:

To build an Android app you need to specify the IL2CPP scripting backend and the ARM64 as the target architecture in the player settings.<br> These settings can be accessed from the Edit > Project Settings menu within the Player > Other Settings section.<br>

It is also a good idea to enable the Download on Build option in the LLM GameObject to download the model on launch in order to keep the app size small.

To automatically save / load your chat history, you can specify the Save parameter of the LLMCharacter to the filename (or relative path) of your choice. The file is saved in the persistentDataPath folder of Unity. This also saves the state of the LLM which means that the previously cached prompt does not need to be recomputed.

To manually save your chat history, you can use:

    llmCharacter.Save("filename");

and to load the history:

    llmCharacter.Load("filename");

where filename the filename or relative path of your choice.

  void WarmupCompleted(){
    // do something when the warmup is complete
    Debug.Log("The AI is nice and ready");
  }

  void Game(){
    // your game function
    ...
    _ = llmCharacter.Warmup(WarmupCompleted);
    ...
  }

The last argument of the Chat function is a boolean that specifies whether to add the message to the history (default: true):

  void Game(){
    // your game function
    ...
    string message = "Hello bot!";
    _ = llmCharacter.Chat(message, HandleReply, ReplyCompleted, false);
    ...
  }

  void Game(){
    // your game function
    ...
    string message = "The cat is away";
    _ = llmCharacter.Complete(message, HandleReply, ReplyCompleted);
    ...
  }

For this you can use the async/await functionality:

  async void Game(){
    // your game function
    ...
    string message = "Hello bot!";
    string reply = await llmCharacter.Chat(message, HandleReply, ReplyCompleted);
    Debug.Log(reply);
    ...
  }

using UnityEngine;
using LLMUnity;

public class MyScript : MonoBehaviour
{
    LLM llm;
    LLMCharacter llmCharacter;

    async void Start()
    {
        // disable gameObject so that theAwake is not called immediately
        gameObject.SetActive(false);

        // Add an LLM object
        llm = gameObject.AddComponent<LLM>();
        // set the model using the filename of the model.
        // The model needs to be added to the LLM model manager (see LLM model management) by loading or downloading it.
        // Otherwise the model file can be copied directly inside the StreamingAssets folder.
        llm.SetModel("Phi-3-mini-4k-instruct-q4.gguf");
        // optional: you can also set loras in a similar fashion and set their weights (if needed)
        llm.AddLora("my-lora.gguf");
        llm.SetLoraWeight(0.5f);
        // optional: you can set the chat template of the model if it is not correctly identified
        // You can find a list of chat templates in the ChatTemplate.templates.Keys
        llm.SetTemplate("phi-3");
        // optional: set number of threads
        llm.numThreads = -1;
        // optional: enable GPU by setting the number of model layers to offload to it
        llm.numGPULayers = 10;

        // Add an LLMCharacter object
        llmCharacter = gameObject.AddComponent<LLMCharacter>();
        // set the LLM object that handles the model
        llmCharacter.llm = llm;
        // set the character prompt
        llmCharacter.SetPrompt("A chat between a curious human and an artificial intelligence assistant.");
        // set the AI and player name
        llmCharacter.AIName = "AI";
        llmCharacter.playerName = "Human";
        // optional: set streaming to false to get the complete result in one go
        // llmCharacter.stream = true;
        // optional: set a save path
        // llmCharacter.save = "AICharacter1";
        // optional: enable the save cache to avoid recomputation when loading a save file (requires ~100 MB)
        // llmCharacter.saveCache = true;
        // optional: set a grammar
        // await llmCharacter.SetGrammar("json.gbnf");

        // re-enable gameObject
        gameObject.SetActive(true);
    }
}

You can use a remote server to carry out the processing and implement characters that interact with it.

Create the server<br> To create the server:

• Create a project with a GameObject using the LLM script as described above
• Enable the Remote option of the LLM and optionally configure the server parameters: port, API key, SSL certificate, SSL key
• Build and run to start the server

Alternatively you can use a server binary for easier deployment:

• Run the above scene from the Editor and copy the command from the Debug messages (starting with "Server command:")
• Download the server binaries and DLLs and extract them into the same folder
• Find the architecture you are interested in from the folder above e.g. for Windows and CUDA use the windows-cuda-cu12.2.0.<br>You can also check the architecture that works for your system from the Debug messages (starting with "Using architecture").
• From command line change directory to the architecture folder selected and start the server by running the command copied from above.

Create the characters<br> Create a second project with the game characters using the LLMCharacter script as described above. Enable the Remote option and configure the host with the IP address (starting with "http://") and port of the server.

The Embeddings function can be used to obtain the emdeddings of a phrase:

    List<float> embeddings = await llmCharacter.Embeddings("hi, how are you?");

LLM model management

LLM for Unity implements a model manager that allows to load or download LLMs and ship them directly in your game.<br> The model manager can be found as part of the LLM GameObject:<br> <img width="360" src=".github/LLM_manager.png">

You can download models with the Download model button.<br> LLM for Unity includes different state of the art models built-in for different model sizes, quantised with the Q4_K_M method.<br> Alternative models can be downloaded from HuggingFace in the .gguf format.<br> You can download a model locally and load it with the Load model button, or copy the URL in the Download model > Custom URL field to directly download it.<br> If a HuggingFace model does not provide a gguf file, it can be converted to gguf with this online converter.<br>

The chat template used for constructing the prompts is determined automatically from the model (if a relevant entry exists) or the model name. <br> If incorrecly identified, you can select another template from the chat template dropdown.<br> <br> Models added in the model manager are copied to the game during the building process.<br> You can omit a model from being built in by deselecting the "Build" checkbox.<br> To remove the model (but not delete it from disk) you can click the bin button.<br> The the path and URL (if downloaded) of each added model is diplayed in the expanded view of the model manager access with the >> button:<br> <img width="600" src=".github/LLM_manager_expanded.png">

You can create lighter builds by selecting the Download on Build option.<br> Using this option the models will be downloaded the first time the game starts instead of copied in the build.<br> If you have loaded a model locally you need to set its URL through the expanded view, otherwise it will be copied in the build.<br>

❕ Before using any model make sure you check their license ❕
