Re: Poll for upcoming robot battles game: Text to speech or voice files?

Slj is correct, actually I cant think of that many self voicing games that have the you have one zero zero zero points you describe. Choppy speech is a concern, though if the alternative is choppy speech and real character voices with atmosphere, Id rather have that than everything through a synth, though having a synth read the numbers and stats and the characters self voiced is the best of both worlds. As to sapi, Sapi itself is just a speech protocol in windows, the reason it doesnt sound as good as Jaws is that it runs with the microsoft default voices, actually you really should! be able to use the voices you have for Jaws with Sapi, its just because the manufacturers are greedy (though that is another story). So, if you want sapi to sound better, just get a decent synth voice for it. Sinse Supernova support is only occasionally included in games Ive used sapi for years, and now have realspeak daniel fo
 r it, so it sounds %100 fine to me. This isnt to say that a game shouldnt! support screen readers, sinse obviously if someone has a screen reader it helps for them to use the voice the screen reader has, however if a game absolutely required! a screen reader, that means nobody without that screen reader could play that game. After all there are people who might want to play games and either not have a screen reader, (imagine someone newly blind or a sighted person investigating audiogames), or not have the specific screen reader the game requires. After all, what about people who use cobra or system access, or for that matter for a long while before Dolphin stopped being quite as precious about the api, Supernova. Even 10 or 15 years ago it was not true that Jaws was the only screen reader around (Ive used Supernova for longer than that), and now, with nvda, Window eyes etc, that is even less true. This isnt anything against pe
 ople who use Jaws, if someone uses Jaws and finds it useful for them, then fare enough and thats a good thing, just to say that jaws isnt the be all and end all of screen readers, and obviously sinse the number of people who play audiogames is very small anyway we dont want to cut that number down with restrictive software requirements,  *cough leasy! *cough .

Re: Poll for upcoming robot battles game: Text to speech or voice files?

Ok, listen closely. What ever you do, do not, and i mean do not, make it self voicing. Those games sound so choppy when reading numbers because if your score is 1000 it will say you have 1, 0, 0, 0, points. If this were from a screenreader, or jaws, it would say: you have 1000 points. See my point? And oh yeah make it run with jaws i hate using sapi but i will if i have to its just annoying.

Re: Poll for upcoming robot battles game: Text to speech or voice files?

@Oriol, saying well people will crack it anyway is not a reason not to make a commercial game if that is what you need for development, after all you do deserve paying for your time and trouble and while of course donations are great if your not getting enough cash donating from this community a commercial price might be a good idea, and look at what commercial games haveaccomplished in terms of higher quality sounds and music and other resources, not to mention extra time rom the developer. As regards making the game donation based for those who cant afford it that is a legitimate concern, however as I said Im not sure about whether donations will cover everything. So, how about trying a different method? Instead of making the game just an all or nothing buy or not buy affair, (with or without a limited demo version), why not take a leaf from games like Alteraeon and have some sort of in game extras available for purchice, things
  which didnt actually add extra content in terms of story or quests or the like, but were fun little addongs people might want to have. For example, if this is a battle game with different characters, have a donation option to get some extra characters to play as, although a person who didnt donate could still play the hole game with the default characters. Perhaps have some purchiceable a minigames or an in game convenience factor such as a system to make a repetitive action less repetitive or expand inventory size or the like. Possibly have an extra side quest or something of the kind available, although not anything that would detract from the free game. Im sure you get the idea. Im not speaking of a pay to get massive stat boosts that make the game easy, just some extras you could donate for. That way there is something to actually buy for people who pay other than just the warm glow of satisfaction, but people who cant affo
 rd the game will not be too badly missed out.

Hello,@brad: be very careful, patrian is a monthly thing, so maybe donate $50 for this month then make your donation less otherwise another $50 will be taken next month, if you really want it to happen that quickly. I think the idea would be that say someone donates 1, then someone donates 5, or whatever, the total goes to six dollars a month for oriol, if someone then donates another five hell get eleven dollars a month.

Re: Poll for upcoming robot battles game: Text to speech or voice files?

Personally I always tend to think sapi/screen readers are fine for basic stat info, numbers, messages and such as its only the characters that should be full voiced, but really I dont mind either way. I have to disagree with Slj however. If your supporting screen readers please! include sapi support just in case either A, someone is using an unsupported screen reader (as happened to me often with Supernova), or B, if someone sighted wants to hear the game and needs a voice. While I know lots of people dont have good sapi voices and prefer their screen readers in built high quality voice over the microsoft default sapi (though this is easily solved by getting a good sapi voice), there are people who dont have that choice, and lets not go down the leasy route as far as saying you must have this software to play, even if there is a choice of jaws or window eyes or system access or nvda or even supernova. Sapi means any tom 
 dick or harry can download the game and play without anything else. Oh and btw, no saying well nvda is free so its not a problem doesnt work either, sinse Nvda takes learing to use and installing, and if someone has no voices to use with nvda theyll be stuck with espeak or sapi anyhow, so even if you are addding Nvda support (which of course is a good thing), please dont forget about sapi too if your going down that route.The character voices as I said however, should be full voice, although if your characters are robots you could make a good case for using synths anyway because robots are, - well you know, synthetic!

Re: Poll for upcoming robot battles game: Text to speech or voice files?

Hello. I think its better that your upcoming games become SAPI/screenReader-based rather then being self-voiced, I actually think thatll be better. I also found something in your number recorded database: in your English games, if a numbers bigger then a million, tfor example 5 millions, itll read the number 5 then stops, while the problem isnt figuring in the Spanish versions for all of these, think of it, a TTS-based game is way too easier to carry on and to use without any problems.Thanks!

Re: Poll for upcoming robot battles game: Text to speech or voice files?

@oriol, I have quite a few things. I incourage you to look at my music library that I posted in a certain topic on this forum. It has quite a few tracks that you might want to use for music in your game. This library is royalty free. Therefore any dev can use it under the condition that it isnt used in software that violates the laws of the country that the dev or its products end users countrys, and the laws of those countries. Second, I vote on screen reader based output. Third, I think we should have a multi plater mode where you select a robot that you have in your group, then battle against someones robot. Also, for a little twist, I think you should add some management into the game. You would start out with a certain amount of money, and a basic computer. You would have to, not literally, but in the game, buy parts and code the software for the robot, then build it. Your main character, who is the manager of the robot battling group
  that you start when starting the game will have a random amount of tech skill. Tech skill would be what allows you to code more advanced combat moves and other skills into your robots and buy new computers that can handle the coding of those more advanced skills, as well as the ability to buy or obtain these parts needed for the more advanced skills that you want to code into your robots. Also, the tech skill would introduce something that I think you werent expecting. You could hack into other robot teams, and steal their robot software, then link it into your robots to give them extra boosts that you couldnt afford or get in because of tech skill. Hacking would be limited to offline mode, but if you add onlinline mode, the stats of the robots you have will still remain. And, about the offline mode, it shouldnt be IP based. It should be where you enter your name. You either look for a person who is online and request a match, or wait to be requested. 
 When waiting for someone to come online, you could train your robots from the online portune of the game, without having to leave it. I think you will find my library quite useful...

Re: Poll for upcoming robot battles game: Text to speech or voice files?

I too, vote screen reader, and strongly so.I played exactly one game of traders of known space, and it completely turned me off VGAs titles - a person should not try to fake being a screen reader. Use voice acting for characters, not for messages.I also really like smaller titles - just because we have big disks doesnt mean we need to declare a vendetta to fill them up.In a counterpoint to this - beatstar did a good job with the self voicing. Its a little choppy when reading numbers, but all and all it works well for what it needs to do. That said, beatstars not an rpg. It only has a few messages, and presumably this would have a whole lot more than that.

Re: Poll for upcoming robot battles game: Text to speech or voice files?

Yes true about the size being smaller Brad you can call me Oriol, as that is my name, no need to call me ogomez.Testers, I dont need testers yet... I need to code the game first.

Re: Poll for upcoming robot battles game: Text to speech or voice files?

Hi.My vote also goes for screenreader output. Not sapi but screenreader.  If there is going to be any character dialog, then I think voice acters is the best thing. But I agree for messages, TTS is the best thing.

Re: Poll for upcoming robot battles game: Text to speech or voice files?

Hello,First of all, I vote for scren reader output.Second, @brad: I think that would probably be a separate game. For now, let ogomez focus on this ones battle system, it sounds complex enough already. I also like your idea and can definitely get where you are coming from though as well, but this battle thing sounds like its probably going to be the most complex part of this game, so one part at a time.

Re: Poll for upcoming robot battles game: Text to speech or voice files?

Hi,Side scroller quest to get items would kill the whole role playing experience. If you can get robot parts from winning battles with cash or whatever, and I make a side scrolling quest to get robot parts, it just leaves the cash part useless.

Re: Poll for upcoming robot battles game: Text to speech or voice files?

Hey hey!I dont like selfvoicing at all.It is often slower and also often sounds realy strange cause of the many soundfiles mixed together. Text to speech is faster and it is allready known. I am working with text to speech all day long so i am feeling more comfortable with it.

Re: Poll for upcoming robot battles game: Text to speech or voice files?

Hi.Sapi or Screen reader output would be great.Oh man, do you mean we get to build our own robot and have them beat the crap out of other robots? And can we press keys to blow crap up? Will there be a shop, a storie mode or something like that? Could you go on a side scroler quest to get robot parts? Man this is going to be awesome!

Re: Poll for upcoming robot battles game: Text to speech or voice files?

Hi,Oh, robot building is interesting. I wasnt thinking of robot building, but yes, uyoure ment to beat the crap out of other robots, but its more like roleplay.Want to see the draft?Please if you have comments, feel free. There are lots of mixed ideas, so put everything togetherattack, defence, energy, and protection to absorb damage once the second dice roll of attacks has been completed.assess option costs one turn and if it succeeds it tellls you the stats of the enemy robot even though you get health indicators with destroying sounds but you still cant see its energy and stuffAssess is a level 3 trainableregenerate will regenerate energy, not healthenergy should be called batterya regenerating bot is unable to defend, but protection shouldnt be affectedlevelling up will give you stats. not sure if you will be able to buy stats with cash, or there will be a practices kind of thing. probably ca
 lled trains, not cashCash will be used to buy perhaps throwable items or healing stuff perhaps even weapons that use less energy or something but have limited ammunition.stunning abilityyou can get an ability at a certain level. or maybe you have the possibility of buying an ability with trains but only when you reach a certain levle (i.e). You can buy stunning ability, for 3 trains but only at level 10 or aboveOh man, do you mean we get to build our own robot and have them beat the crap out of other robots? And can we press keys to blow crap up? Will there be a shop, a storie mode or something like that? Could you go on a side scroler quest to get robot parts? Man this is going to be awesome!

Re: Poll for upcoming robot battles game: Text to speech or voice files?

My suggestion for voicing is to either use the robotic SAPI5 versions of Mike and Mary that already exist, or better yet, put your own robotic effects on some already existing TTS voice that sounds better, hopefully with both male and female options for players.I know that your worried about file size impacting the final games data footprint, but you could use a pretty compressed format like OGG and tailor it to the right quality without much trouble with something like a SAPI voice.Also, for a game as complex as youre saying this one will be, I doubt people will mind a large size.This would favorably impact the theme of the game, and could be added as an additional download, with screen reader support being the main method out of the box.
