    Hi jzn321, I’ve supported local models through LM Studio. After you downloaded local models to LM Studio and run their server, 120 AI Chat will show what models available (through LM Studio server) and you will be able to chat with these models in 120 AI Chat as well.
    I just want to make sure if this is what you mean?

      Thank you for your response. I can’t select and configure an LM Studio server in the AI Providers tab? I am running 120 Al Chat STABLE v0.8.2.

        You will need to open and run LM Studio separately and then enable ‘Start Server on Port 1234…’ as in the picture below. After that, restart 120 AI Chat again.

          There is a server running in LM Studio, but where do I configure this in 120 AI Chat?

            Currently we use the default configuration `localhost:1234` so you don’t need to configure anything. 120 AI Chat should recognize LM Studio models once you enable ‘Start Server on Port 1234…’. After you run LM Studio Server, just close 120 AI Chat and re-open. Now the app should show all LM Studio models (at the end of the model selection list).

              I have a local LM Studio server, but also another one (much more powerful) in my network. It is possible to edit the server address?

                Got it! Yes, it’s possible to change which LM Studio server to run (using Terminal command):

                  I know, but where in 120 Al Chat can I put my server URL and enable / disable models?

                    I will work on it and add to the next release!

                        Hi jzn321, with the new update 0.8.3, you can set your own server URL, however, to enable/disable models, you still need to do this through LM Studio.
                        Let me know how things go on your side! Cheers!

                          Thanks, I’m on the latest version, but normally the chat program should pass the model in the API request, and that’s not handled by LM Studio. LM Studio can offer dozens of models at one time, but in the API request the model still has to be included. Right now, that doesn’t happen. So I can’t get it to work anymore. I don’t know if you managed to do it, but for me it doesn’t work. I think something still needs to be added.

                            This is the video captured from 120 AI Chat running on my Mac. The app will pass the API request to the models directly. There are a few things you need to make sure with LM Studio:
                            - there are models downloaded and loaded on your server
                            - enable the server to start
                            Feel free to let me know if I didn’t understand what you mean correctly.

                            Hi jzn321, I just released a new version to fix the base URL input of LM Studio in 120 AI Chat. Let me know if it fixes your problem!
