Model Favorites
From current favorites to past favorites. Notice my notes are based on personal experiences.
Text Generation • Updated • 1.09k • 75Note Better than v1.1. It's creative with a lot of personality. It moves the roleplay in interesting ways. It's capable of roleplaying multiple characters in a single card. It can even roleplay side characters. Response length can vary but generally good. Sometimes reminds me of larger models. May sometimes roleplay as user and requires swipes or edits. Has a bit of a nsfw bias, but it may be a plus for some. I use: MarsupialAI/Magnum-12b-v2_iMatrix_GGUF (5_K_M)
Nitral-AI/Hathor_Stable-v0.2-L3-8B
Text Generation • Updated • 1.04k • 56Note My favorite in the "Hathor" series. Creative and has good a response length. Follows instructions and character cards well. It can somewhat roleplay multiple characters in a single card. Might have to nudge it into roleplaying side characters though. Does well in moving the roleplay along. I use: mradermacher/Hathor_Stable-L3-8B-v0.5-i1-GGUF (5_K_M)
HiroseKoichi/Llama-3-8B-Stroganoff
Text Generation • Updated • 551 • 24Note Good response length that doesn't needlessly extend unless it adds value. Less repetitive. Follows cards and instructions well and is overall good for roleplay. It's sort of able to roleplay multiple characters in a single card as long as there's descriptions for both. Could be more soulful. I use: LWDCLS/Llama-3-8B-Stroganoff-GGUF-IQ-Imatrix-Request (8_K_M)
Nitral-AI/Hathor_Sofit-L3-8B-v1
Text Generation • Updated • 586 • 18Note Creative and follows instruction well. I like this one for how it moves the roleplay along. Follows character cards well. It's sort of able to roleplay multiple characters in a single card as long as there's descriptions for both. Response length can get long. I use: mradermacher/Hathor_Sofit-L3-8B-v1-i1-GGUF (5_K_M)
intervitens/mini-magnum-12b-v1.1
Text Generation • Updated • 4.82k • 69Note Creative. The best thing about this model is how it moves the roleplay and makes decisions while also following the scenario. It's sort of able to roleplay multiple characters in a single card as long as there's descriptions for both. Response length can be long. Sometimes it can take a NSFW which can be hard to get out of but edits help. I use: InferenceIllusionist/mini-magnum-12b-v1.1-iMat-GGUF (5_K_M)
Sao10K/L3-8B-Niitama-v1
Text Generation • Updated • 255 • 31Note Creative like Lunaris but what makes this model special is that it's a little more soulful. It's mostly capable of roleplaying multiple characters in a single character card as long as there's descriptions for both. Capable of roleplaying side characters. Model is better when it has examples for it follow. A con is that it's difficult getting it to not take a NSFW route, but it may be a plus for some. Responses may be too long. I use: mradermacher/L3-8B-Niitama-v1-i1-GGUF (5_K_M)
