| I'm trying to make a sport annoucer in my game. I've tried this dll but I can't figure out how to say stuff. |
| ||
| What dll? |
| ||
| @Blitz Programmer, go in my website (link in the signature) and download the So To Speak application. It comes with a source written in Blitz+, and a DLL by MetalMan. Hope it helps, Sergio. |

| It still requires Microsofts Speech installed. It's there already in XP, and sometimes in WinME, not in Win98. So you cannot be sure if it will work on everyones machine. |

| BTW there is one cheat you could use for speech output: AT&T has a very professional Speech internet server. It has a html-form to enter the text, and then it will return the speech sound as a wav file to the browser. You _cound_ (although this may be not fully TOC conform) create the sounds on demand using a realtime TCP download from the server. But honestly, it may look strange if you app asks for web access, but has not internet functionality at all. |

| It's definitively not TOC conform. Tho it would be pretty funny when you connect this speech thing with some AI page, like Alice or so. |
