Hi Charles, A while back I had lost sappi due to an inconvenient power outage. I ended up useing something called eSpeak. Maybe that will help you? It had come with voices, but they were pretty bad, still it is better then nothing. I am sorry I haven't used it since then a few years ago, but I am sure an internet will find it. Specifically I know it did well with entombed, but I am not sure about the rest.

Even Microsoft Sam, which I detest, does not operate. I am using Windows Home edition of XP with service pack 3 installed. In order to run Jim Kitchen's games, among others, SAPI is necessary. The program on Jim's site, which I know I will misspell, de loser lex, made no change. There is another file I could get from his site, although it says that it is for Windows 98, 2000, and M E, so I haven't tried it yet. I've thought of doing a repair of Windows, but cannot find my Windows CD if needed. Is there a TTS engine that I can download and install that might fix this annoyance? Thanks in advance. --- Shepherds are the best beasts, but Labs are a close second. --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.
