Hi Dark and all, I play Winfrotz all the time with NVDA, and haven't had any problems without the NVDA plugin. So I am not really sure what the plugin does. What is it suppose to do? As far as the Filfre vs Winfrotz debate goes sounds like a screen reader compatibility issue alright. I've

Hi Kelly, I agree with Dark. It sounds like your Winfrotz is misconfigured as I am using NVDA without the NVDA plugin with Winfrotz and have not experienced the problems you mention. For one thing it sounds like autoscrolling is turned on which may be why the text doesn't match what SAPI is

Hi Tom. As far as I remember, the nvda plugin is supposed to auto read incoming text, though I don't know too much about how it works, it was just a suggestion from one of our more responsable forum members that I include the link on the page. Then again I've noticed myself people seem less

I've played that a little bit, but find myself getting lost a lot. Aetolia, which is created by the same developers, has been friendlier to me, as they have a pathing system. It should ask you to enter a number to either create a character, enter the world, or log out. Shannon On Sep 30,

Hi, I was able to play a game with WinFrotz and SAPI 5, but in general I don't care for that option because you can't do things like silence speech if you need to, or have it spell certain words. I'll definitely check the Autoscrolling setting, and will also try it with NVDA. Thanks. Yours

The developer has been told about the silencing speech issue, since that was really the only thing which the old winfrotz tts did that modern winfrotz with sapi does. I'll have to give him a poke and see how he's getting to adding it. Beware the Grue! Dark. - Original Message -

Hi All, I just tried Windows Frotz 1.17 (the latest version) with NVDA 2013.2, both with and without the plugin, and it doesn't speak any text automatically. However, I can read what's on the screen using the screen review mode and keys 7 and 9 on the numeric keypad, but I find it awkward as

Hi Dark, I see. Yes, having NVDA automatically read the text in Winfrotz would be nice, but I never personally found that necessary. I generally do a shift+numpad-7 to get to the top of the screen and use numpad-9 to read down line by line. Its a little slower than using SAPI etc, but it does

Hi. Yes, fast scrolling is what I believe causes the problem you mentioned previously of text vanishing off the screen before you can read it. I can't speak for the plugin or nvda navigation of the screen, since with supernova all I do is activate dolphin curser, go to the bottom then hit
