HI all. wondering if anyone else is experiencing this.
have had this problem for quite a while now.
because I am running iyp on a windows 7 system, I installed espeak
synthesizer because the default Anna makes my head hurt and speaks too
slowly even at maximum rate to be usable.
However, whenever I launch iyp, espeak reverts to its slowest rate.
after I get the its your plane prompt, I can say decrease speech rate
and I get the second fastest rate that espeak can do and then I can say
"increase speech rate" and it will go up once more. however, I can't get
this to save no matter what I try.
every relaunch of iyp gets me the slowest rate again.
think it might be time to restart my installation. Maybe tomorrow after
work when I can spend about 4 hours doing fsx iyp, radar contact, a
bunch of extra aircraft which I hope I can find again, a couple of sound
packs and some add ons which give me extra traffic at Canadian airports.
I have had a couple of other strange issues since I installed fsx where
sometimes there will be no voice for atc regardless of the setting in
the sounds settings.
since I am comtemplating doing this, has anyone gotten the sliders for
setting things like graphics levels volumes etc with any degree of accuracy?
I have tried setting these things with 3 screen readers and I don't
think any of them report accurately.
wish I could just edit a text file and make life easier.
Brian.
