Alternate Text to Speech options

Post by David Love-Brice »

Hi guys,

Currently I'm limited to good old Microsoft Zira Desktop and Microsoft David Desktop in P3D using Text to Speech in SimDirector. Do you know if it's possible to incorporate other localised TTS voicepacks into SimDirector, such as say, an Australian voicepack?

Many thanks

David.

Hi David,

It depends on how these TTS voices are installed. If they are available as TTS voices at the OS level (in the same drop down as the two desktop voices you listed) than they should be available for use in SimDirector.
