Re: [Audyssey] New Game From GLTech Studios
Hi Lee, According to the Audio Games forum message I linked to the game is suppose to be a modern remake of Danger City. It is a side-scroller. Beyond that I don't know much about the game. You should go find my original post and check out the game if you are interested. Cheers!

Re: [Audyssey] New games for windows not being produced any more?
Hi Dark, Ah, I understand now. Thanks for clearing that issue up for me. When it comes to TTS voices one thing I have noticed there is a pretty big difference in preference, and a lot of it comes down to what a person is use to. Eloquence came with Jaws and even Window-Eyes for many versions now, and for various reasons people have grown use to it, perhaps even like it, and it is for that reason they want to use it in a game. It is generally faster, more responsive than most TTS voices, and while robotic it does a decent job of speaking text clearly and precisely. On the flip side while the Vocalizer voices are more human sounding they come with their fair share of hang-ups such as are less responsive and don't always pronounce words correctly. Nothing is quite as frustrating to read a document instead of saying m s or Microsoft to have Vocalizer say manuscript instead. Point being,while the Vocalizer voices are superior in many ways Eloquence is still better in other ways. It is for those other reasons that keep gamers interested in using it as an alternative to speech synthe to SApi. Cheers!

Re: [Audyssey] New games for windows not being produced any more?
Hi Tom. I do understand both the responsiveness and dictionary points sinse both are reasons I used to like the human voices from orphius although annoyingly it's had a nasty habbit of crashing on me recently so I've switched to vocalizer full time. At least with the later versions of Supernova I've not noticed any responsivess issues, though whether this is due to sn or vocalizer or both I'm not sure. I do however fully well agree vocalizers abreviations are a pain in the kneck, especially when playing rpgs and muds like alteraeon, being told I have 100 horse power and 60 street instead of 100 Hp and 50 staminer is quite irritating. I also used to like Orphius for the fact that it's ability to pronounce various fantasy names was pretty good, it even got names like theoden correct. Vocalizer isn't bad and I'm getting a bit more used to it as I play fantasy games, but occasionally when it says something like pronouncing the mad stuard of Minas Tirith's name in Lotr as den netha, or Frodo as frodd dough I still do miss Orphius. For me, one major turn off of Eloquence is the sound of it's attempt at British English. I do prefer a British synth sinse obviously when I'm writing anything of my own I want it to sound reasonable with the gramar I use, just as I suspect you would prefer an American one for the same reason, however Eloquence british english is rather horrible, it gets vowels wrong and ends words in a very unnatural way. I agree all of this is pretty much down to personal preference. --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

Re: [Audyssey] Shades of doom.
Hi s p o i l e r s p a c e On level 2 when you meet the first cyborg, run away a bit down the long hallway, then turn back to face him and shoot a grinade. The same goes for the others you'll find on level 2. Another way is to try opening the 2nd doorway in the hallway, and letting the cyborgs in that room out, then you have a chance of getting rid of all 3 with a grinade. I always save my game before experimenting with grinades though.

Re: [Audyssey] New games for windows not being produced any more?
Hi Dark, Yeah, I don't really use Eloquence's British voices much, me being an American, so I am perfectly fine with Reed. However, I can and do see your issue with Eloquence because the British English voices sound off to me as well, and I am use to listening to British voices like Realspeak Daniel or Ivona Amy and Bryan. So I'm not all that surprised you don't like Eloquence's British voices. Of course, as we've said before this is all pretty much personal preference. I remember when I was using realspeak Caren in a couple of my games and a few people complained about the voice because it was Australian English. I can sort of see their point as some of those accents do sound strange if all a person is use to is American English, but I personally liked the voice. Cheers!

Vocalizer isn't bad and I'm getting a bit more used to it as I play fantasy games, but occasionally when it says something like pronouncing the mad stuard of Minas Tirith's name in Lotr as den netha, or Frodo as frodd dough I still do miss Orphius. For me, one major turn off of Eloquence is the sound of it's attempt at British English. I do prefer a British synth sinse obviously when I'm writing anything of my own I want it to sound reasonable with the gramar I use, just as I suspect you would prefer an American one for the same reason, however Eloquence british english is rather horrible, it gets vowels wrong and ends words in a very unnatural way. I agree all of this is pretty much down to personal preference. --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

Re: [Audyssey] New games for windows not being produced any more?
Hi Tom. Personally I didn't mind the australian voice in the game, albeit was a little surprising given that I don't believe Angela carter was planned to be an ozy. Beware the grue!
