Hi Dark, Right. In fact, in the latest build of the Genisis Engine I have added SAPI 5.x support. I haven't yet converted MOTA over to SAPI but like you I believe buying high quality voices such as the AT&T Natural Voices, Cepstral Voices, etc is a bit like buying a joystick. It is a game accessory and the advantages of using SAPI directly is really the best way to go for Windows games. I've found when testing the C++ version of the Genesis Engine with SAPI support that its more responsive than using wav files, you can adjust the voice to your preference, interrupt speech, etc so the advantages out way the disadvantages here. Since SAPI is really the best choice directly supporting something like Jaws is unnecessary to begin with.
