Discord Chat Simulator

This repository contains code that produces a fake discord conversation between multiple people. It takes in a text file of the form

Jim:
Hey Bob
What kind of chocolate...
Do you find in airports?

Bob:
idk Jim
what kind?

# this line is ignore becaused it has a # sign
Jim:
plain

and produces a sequence of discord messages, like those found in Beluga or Mr. P Solver videos. Messages from the same person stack: for example, in the chat above, the sequence of messages produced by the first chats of Jim are “Hey Bob” then “Hey Bob (newline) What kind of chocolate…” and then “Hey Bob (newline) What kind of chocolate… (newline) Do you find in airports?”

To run

  1. pip install -r requirements.txt
  2. Add all desired profile pictures to the profile_pictures/ folder.
  3. Inside the profile_pictures/ folder, update the profile_pic_dict.json with names (corresponding to the names in whatever script txt file you want to convert) and corresponding profile pictures.
  4. Inside the repository folder, run python generate_chat.py. It will prompt you to choose a .txt file of a script (format outlines above) somewhere on your computer. The images will be saved in a newly created chat/ folder with the form 007T.png where the first 3 numbers represent the image number in the entire sequence and the letter is the first letter of speakers name.

The file naming convention for saved .PNG chats is used because videos (very likely) have less than 1000 messages and the three digits allows for easy importing and sorting into a software like premiere pro.
