 This model was converted to GGUF format from [`crestf411/Q2.5-32B-Slush`](https://huggingface.co/crestf411/Q2.5-32B-Slush) using llama.cpp via the ggml.ai's [GGUF-my-repo](https://huggingface.co/spaces/ggml-org/gguf-my-repo) space.
 Refer to the [original model card](https://huggingface.co/crestf411/Q2.5-32B-Slush) for more details on the model.

+Model details:
+-
+Slush is a two-stage model trained with high LoRA dropout, where stage 1 is a pretraining continuation on the base model, aimed at boosting the model's creativity and writing capabilities. This is then merged into the instruction tune model, and stage 2 is a fine tuning step on top of this to further enhance its roleplaying capabilities and/or to repair any damage caused in the stage 1 merge.
+
+This is still early stage. As always, feedback is welcome, and begone if you demand perfection.
+
+The second stage, like the Sunfall series, follows the Silly Tavern preset (ChatML), so ymmv in particular if you use some other tool and/or preset.
+Parameter suggestions
+
+I did all my testing with temp 1, min-p 0.1, DRY 0.8, but enabled XTC as context grew and/or the model started saying "the same stuff".
+
+Qwen 2.5 32B Instruct (vanilla) has a strong tendency to start speaking for the user, especially in narrator scenarios. I was unable to properly train this out of the model completely, so you may want to add e.g. "\nYou" as a stopping string, and enable "trim incomplete sentences", especially if you have banned sentences.
+
+The model has a tendency to add an unnecesary final paragraph to responses during roleplay, sort of like a "summary" of how the character is feeling. Keeping it is OK, but it may snowball quickly. Hoping to address this but not sure how.
