Re: [Audyssey] Darkflier Productions
John and all here it is https://www.dropbox.com/s/qfiso7rpuv9pi37/2DP.7z?dl=1 That will take about 30 mins to upload but try it and see. In this version is the latest downloaded build, and every map that was on the server at the time before shutdown including all the maps posts just after shutdown. These also include the mtg maps that were never uploaded at all to the 2dp server. On an interesting note shortly before the site went away someone hacked it to post a message saying he really liked the entirre project and was sad for it to die so I guess that means something.

[Audyssey] WAAAAY Off Topic: Microsoft Speech Voices
Hi all. This is a super off topic message, and for that, I offer sincere apologies, but I'm hoping someone knows what I need to know so that, by knowing, I no longer need to know... Moving on: Ok, so Microsoft offers two methods by which you can make a computer speak simply: their SAPI interface and their Microsoft Server Speech Platform interface. I have installed the Microsoft Server Speech Platform, and it works pretty well with NVDA, my screen reader of choice, though it doesn't really work well with anything else at the moment. However, I was really hoping to install and use the other language packs for English that have text to speech voices: that is I already have the U.S. pack as I live in the U.S.. I acquired the Canada pack, the Britain pack, the Australia pack, and the India pack, which are, I believe, the only packs to come with text to speech on offer. However, while I can access the voices in the speech page under the Windows 10 settings screen (accessed via windows+i and via the start menu etc) I cannot access the voices either via NVDA's Microsoft SAPI interface or via the text-to-speech properties screen under the Control Panel software within Windows 10. This is interesting and intriguing, and I will explain why in a moment, after I ask my general question, which is this: How can I make my computer in general and NVDA in specific recognize these many new and finely crafted voices from Microsoft that appear in one place and not another? If I can, please tell me how. If I can't, please tell me why. Also, direct me to the smart and gifted person in the Microsoft corporate structure that thought that was brilliant. Now, here's for the interesting situation: After I got the Microsoft Speech Platform working, I returned to trying to unlock and use the mythical Eva voice. I'm not sure who has heard of this voice, but it's supposed to be the voice of Cortana, especially when there isn't a pre-recorded bit of Cortana's voice actor to be had. In fact, you can often hear this voice if you ask esoteric questions of the Cortana system. At any rate, I had tried to acquire and use the Eva voice before with no success. I decided to try again only this time, I was successful. I was able to use the Eva voice with NVDA and to find it in the tts properties screen under Control Panel. However, interestingly, I was not able to locate the MS Eva voice under the speech screen in Settings. Then, high on success, I acquired all of those language packs, as I initially said, earlier in my message. Those show up in settings under Region and Language and under Speech, all under the Personalization screen. However, something interesting happened. I acquired another voice under Control Panel and via NVDA: Hazel, a Brittish voice. I was surprised to say the least. Not only was this a new voice from a different language pack, it showed up in Settings, under Control Panel, and in NVDA, something that only David and Zira, the original Windows 10 voices had done before. Also interestingly, Hazel is the exact duplicate of Susan, another British voice that only shows up under the Settings' speech screen. Needless to say, this is a rather confusing and interesting situation that we have here, and there is an obvious disconnect between what we perceive as SAPI and what is being presented to us. I'd really be interested in getting to the bottom of it, and I hope that the fascination of this enigma can cause my fellows here to overlook the off-topic nature of the post. Thank you for your insight and patience. -- Signed: Dakotah Rickard --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

Re: [Audyssey] WAAAAY Off Topic: Microsoft Speech Voices
While this isn't exactly related to games, it's not completely out of the park either, since after all sapi is an access method for games, it's good to know what can and cannot be done regarding voices. I am in no way a windows 10 user, but I know the speech server and the sapi are completely different interfaces. Those voices you may see under speech properties and not the settings screen probably mean that they're strictly using sapi. I could be wrong, but that's what it looks like the problem is.

Re: [Audyssey] WAAAAY Off Topic: Microsoft Speech Voices
Dakota I am to interested. Write me off list how you did it or put it on offtopic on audiogames forum so we can discuss it properly. Yes adding language packs will add the voices that is well known. where did you go for the eva voice stuff I have some time on my hands I may write something for this maybe look anyway.
