Self Host Offline AI Text to Speech

So this one has been in the works for a while, and it's a big one. You can now host your own TTS AI models completely offline using your own hardware whenever you want for free!
Now, it's easier said than done and it does require a beefy GPU (Nvdia 2000s series or later)[4~6GB of VRAM) or a good CPU. This was built off of Chatterbox AI so it comes with the ability to clone voices. Latency is okay but depending on your system it can be fast enough for conversational use. Cloning capability of Chatterbox is insanely good.
Rebindable Controls

This is another big one as well and will be expanded as it receives feedback. As stated, every action can now be remapped to any key on your keyboard or gamepad. This game was not built with gamepads in mind but I will be entertaining the ability to play with it.
Steam Workshop Integration

And another big one. Steam Workshop is now seamlessly integrated into the game. This feature is not live yet as the Steam game has NOT released yet but when it does, it will be ready to go! I expect to upload a few myself to get people started.
The nice thing about it is that it's built into the Mod Editor as well so you can download and instantly preview them in your Mod Editor. Uploading new creations made by you is also a simple one checkbox when you export.
These are 3 huge quality of life additions to the game. One more week of QoL before VR!
Stay tuned!
