Comic Chat for AI is a Windows 11-compatible, GPT-only evolution of Microsoft Comic Chat. It renders conversations with ChatGPT as automatically composed comic strips using the original panel, balloon, avatar, and emotion renderer.
Download the current Windows build from the
GitHub Releases page.
Extract the ZIP intact so CChat.exe remains next to the comicart folder.
Install Codex locally and sign in to ChatGPT. Open the application, choose AI > New Comic Chat, then use the normal message box to talk with ChatGPT.
Codex runs locally and handles the browser sign-in flow. Comic Chat for AI does not include Codex and does not store ChatGPT credentials.
Install Visual Studio 2022 C++ Build Tools with MFC and ATL support, then run these commands from a Developer Command Prompt:
call "<VisualStudio>\VC\Auxiliary\Build\vcvars32.bat"
cd v2.5-beta-1-modern
nmake /f chat.mak CFG="chat - Win32 Release"
The executable is written to v2.5-beta-1-modern\Release\CChat.exe. The
application is a 32-bit MFC program and runs on Windows 11 x64.
This is an alpha release. It supports ChatGPT through the local Codex runtime, random comic characters, and model-directed character emotions. IRC, legacy server dialogs, member lists, favorites, and legacy help content are removed from the main product flow.
Comic Chat for AI is an independent modification of Microsoft Comic Chat. It is not affiliated with, sponsored by, or endorsed by Microsoft or OpenAI.
