@Draconis:
I haven't bought Change Reaction 2 or Silver Dollar either for Mac or
Windows, so I can't compare the two versions...
However I tried your games before you introduced your new engine.
I am talking now not of technical features or your internal design of the
engine or the games.
I however remember the time where there still was a long and nice readme
file or some form of a game manual which you could access without running
said game, allthough some ingame help, samples (not for a trial version, but
for learning game play mechanics) or some interactive tutorials are also not
a bad idea.
Since I haven't seen the full versions of Silver Dollar or Change Reaction
2, I can only comment on the Windows version of the Draconis Show Case
program...
And I am seriously wondering why it is impossible to actually choose which
of your SAPI voices you want to read for you and why it seems that
interupting any speech takes a long time meaning that when any key is
pressed or any demo or level or recording is started the voice still reads
the description of that game or game mode while the recording or game level
is already running, which should not be.
If I want to listen to any description of a game mode, I'll surely listen to
the entire thing.
But when I know what I want to do, I want to skip that, but not that it
still is talking while I have already started something.
@the users who actually have either Silver Dollar or Change Reaction 2 for
Windows:
is it the same with SAPI for you in that you can't choose the SAPI voice
from within the game and takes it over a second to interupt any spoken
message like help or game or mode descriptions before you actually start
them?
