Text-to-Speech (Festival TTS in Ubuntu)
« on: December 11, 2018, 03:35:12 am »
I've made my StarBlast game work with either the eSpeak or Festival speech synthesiser (you can alter my source code to change from Festival to eSpeak).
https://www.qb64.org/forum/index.php?topic=576.msg4272#msg4272

My questions are:
1) Can you hear the voice when the speaker is identified as CENTRAL COMMAND near the bottom of the screen?
2) How can I change to a different Festival voice using SHELL?  I've tried, but I can do it only at the command prompt (in Ubuntu).

I hope you like my game.  Thanks!
I may not always finish what I've started....
