Hi!

I am integrating the Convai plug-in into my Unity project for the first time. After following the setup tutorial process, I am trying to converse with the Convai avatar, however it is not responding. A Grpc.core.rpcexception is thrown. My microphone works fine and looking closely into the error, the issue may not be from my end. I would appreciate guidance on resolving this.

This is the error I receive:

Hello @ezewudokositoni,

**Welcome to the Convai Developer Forum!**

Could you please check the Core AI Settings? Which LLM do you use?

Thanks!

For now, I am not using a custom character. It is in my conversation with the default Convai characters in the Convai demo scene that I run into the error message.

My conversation with the Convai avatar works perfectly now. Thanks! Was it an issue on my end?
