fffiloni/consistent-character · Why no custom prompt text?

Hello. I do appreciate that there are now even more pre-made elements to choose from, but the thing is, this still isn’t a final solution for me. I don’t want a pre-made selection. I want to use my own custom text prompt. I also can’t duplicate the space due to cost reasons. I don’t need pre-made elements either. I need my own background, my own clothing, and so on. For example, a scene where she lies down on a bed. That’s something I could never achieve with pre-made prompts. And honestly, it really hurts that I can’t fully realize my cool idea for my video project anymore. And that I can’t properly use Consistent Character anymore because of these new limitations. Especially since there was originally free prompt support for everyone.

And now it’s just been removed. It feels like we’ve been slapped in the face. Honestly, I felt punished by it. I even spent hours together with ChatGPT trying to get it running via Google Colab with a free T4 GPU. But that didn’t work either. All of this came from sheer desperation.

And yes, I’d love to duplicate the space. But I don’t have online banking, and I can’t afford the high costs of a powerful GPU. Otherwise, none of this would be a problem for me.

What was so wrong about offering custom prompts for everyone? Did it hurt anyone? Did they even think about it? Why didn’t they just restrict it from the beginning instead of giving us access and then taking it away without a word?

Because this can hurt others too. People who relied on Consistent Character but can’t afford their own space due to financial reasons. I just wish they would think about people like that too.
