Text-To-Speech Engine

Text-to-speech engines provide speech output capabilities for Microsoft Agent and the Agent Character Editor. In the list below, select one of the available text-to-speech engines. Note that you must also install the Agent language component for the specified language, except for American and British English.





NOTE: When using the L&H TTS3000 engines with the Microsoft Agent characters, you should also install the SAPI 4.0a runtime binaries since the characters are compiled to use the L&H TruVoice engine as the default speech output engine. Microsoft Agent also installs the SAPI runtime binaries with the Microsoft Speech Recognition Engine, the Speech Control Panel , and the Agent Character Editor. So if you install these components then you will NOT need this download.

Download Download the Microsoft SAPI 4.0a runtime binaries (824 kb exe)
Or, from your Web page, you can include the following tag to trigger an autodownload of the Speech API:

<OBJECT WIDTH=0 HEIGHT=0
  CLASSID="CLSID:0C7F3F20-8BAB-11d2-9432-00C04F8EF48F"
  CODEBASE="#VERSION=4,0,0,0">
</OBJECT>

If you can't find a language, You may want to check out other third-party speech engines that support Agent; they may have the language you're looking for.

More Downloads
Note: The following plugins are not needed for agent pages to run, but are here to enhance your use of the program.

If you would also like to play with more plugins that my pages support, you will need to download such plugins as Speech Recognition for use with voice command pages! You must intall the Speech Recognition plugin to have this option enabled.

WARNING: This is a good 6 meg download but well worth it for the fun you'll have with the agents. :~)

Also you will find here the Speech Control Panel used for playing with the settings. To enable speech recognition on an actor... when he is loaded and the plugin has been installed hit the SCROLL LOCK key and speak your command. Try saying hello to the genie on the Fortune page.
