ACE 1.5.3 Patch Notes

8/18/2025By Friends & Fables

Narration

We changed the underlying narration model in ACE 1.5.3 to one that ranks higher in role-play evaluations. In addition, we changed some of our system prompts and workflows. We have NOT changed the models in OOC or Combat. You should notice these changes in narration/conversation modes:

  • More engaging narration

  • Less tropes

  • Less refusals

  • Franz now respects custom instructions for message detail and response lengths better

This model is slightly slower, but we think the tradeoff is worth it! Please give it a try, we’ll put out an optional survey in-app tomorrow to collect your feedback!

Quests

  • Allows you to mark quest steps completed manually via the UI in the quest tab or in the right hand sidebar

  • Franz can now complete quest steps via OOC

Other

  • Fixes issue where a roll would come in but the chat window would not automatically scroll down

  • Fixes 500 error when looking at world pages

  • Fixes issue where lore pages don’t update after saving them

  • Fixes issue where private world lore pages would not appear in side bar
