⚄︎ Perchance

This is a Lemmy Community for perchance.org, a platform for sharing and creating random text generators.

Feel free to ask for help, share your generators, and start friendly discussions at your leisure :)

This community is mainly for discussions between those who are building generators. For discussions about using generators, especially the popular AI ones, the community-led Casual Perchance forum is likely a more appropriate venue.

See this post for the Complete Guide to Posting Here on the Community!

Rules

1. Please follow the Lemmy.World instance rules.

2. Be kind and friendly.

  • Please be kind to others on this community (and also in general), and remember that for many people Perchance is their first experience with coding. We have members for whom English is not their first language, so please be take that into account too :)

3. Be thankful to those who try to help you.

  • If you ask a question and someone has made a effort to help you out, please remember to be thankful! Even if they don't manage to help you solve your problem - remember that they're spending time out of their day to try to help a stranger :)

4. Only post about stuff related to perchance.

  • Please only post about perchance related stuff like generators on it, bugs, and the site.

5. Refrain from requesting Prompts for the AI Tools.

  • We would like to ask to refrain from posting here needing help specifically with prompting/achieving certain results with the AI plugins (text-to-image-plugin and ai-text-plugin) e.g. "What is the good prompt for X?", "How to achieve X with Y generator?"
  • See Perchance AI FAQ for FAQ about the AI tools.
  • You can ask for help with prompting at the 'sister' community Casual Perchance, which is for more casual discussions.
  • We will still be helping/answering questions about the plugins as long as it is related to building generators with them.

6. Search through the Community Before Posting.

  • Please Search through the Community Posts here (and on Reddit) before posting to see if what you will post has similar post/already been posted.

This generator: https://perchance.org/pvzdciw861 seems to have an issue with making the video. It does provide a decription of what's happening, but to gets stuck in generating and gives this error message: SecurityError: Failed to execute 'toDataURL' on 'HTMLCanvasElement': Tainted canvases may not be exported. Can it be looked at please?

There are NO working video generators on perchance. Perchance does NOT provide video generation services. You can NOT create videos using perchance.

You can ONLY generate images from prompts, nothing else - and chat with the AI.

Any generator claiming otherwise is wishful thinking, fake or worse (there are very few ones that "borrow" resources from outside of perchance and make it seem like perchance can do, which adds to the confusion.)

In your case, you can take a look at the code (edit button top right corner) and see this piece of "code".

I tried it it is really weird it didn't generate a video and now its playing sound that sounds like the soundtrack for Shrek or some rpg game like wow with random medieval like sounds. this is not even close to what i asked for and i can't download it its just sitting there with a glitchy video player. i am impressed it did anything these things usually crash. they use 3rd party services since perchance doesn't support it but since these things always cost money. they sometimes have a trail but it doesn't actually work or do other things to make it seem free or freemium but it wont do anything for free
