Hi Dark,
I didn't want to say that it is absolutely necessary to have all SAPI
options available.
But if you are using avoice in a non English language as your default voice,
running a game without changing it in the control panel might cause you some
problems.
Besides, I know some programs which use their own SAPI configuration sets,
and why not use them, so every program can be configured individually
instead of having to rely only on the settings of the control panel.
That was one big problem with Blind Man's Bluff.
There was a SAPI 5 version, but actually changing the voice for the game
only didn't work in the unstable 1.3 version.
Thus it is better, if you have the option to do the configuration
completely. If you go to include permanent voice changes (each time game
starts, the same voice is used unless you change it within the game), then
why not also add the proper configuration parameters of voices which are
volume, rate of speech and pitch (not all voices support adjustments of all
three parameters)?
