I suggest getting the PSDK (rather than relying on the files in /speech/), and defining FS2_SPEECH in both code and Freespace2.
Then you're good to go!
Changed flag because of launcher bug, have fixed launcher bug, will distribute later.
Also removed experimental flag from launcher flag list, stupid people were reporting bugs on unfinished code.
Simulated speech doesnt say tags marked by $ now.
The following are fixes to issues that came up testing TBP in fs2_open and fred2_open:
Changed vm_vec_mag and parse_tmap to fail gracefully on bad data.
Error now given on missing briefing icon and bad ship normal data.
Solved more species divide by zero error.
Fixed neb cube crash.
Put 32 bit PCX stuff on -pcx32 (still has bugs)
Added multisample checking on device initialisation
Changed unrecognised parameter message (as requested) to be more user friendly
Speech now chooses voice based on reg value set by launcher v3.1
added myself to credit
killed some of the stupid fscking warnings (including doing some casting and commenting out unused vars in the graphics modules)
Release builds should have warning level set no higher than 2 (default is 1)
Why the hell are we getting warning's about function selected for inline expansion... (killing them with warning disables)
FS2_SPEECH was not defined (source file doesn't appear to capture preproc defines correctly either)
Should all work now if setup properly with version 2.4 of the launcher.
FS2_SPEECH can be used to make the speech code compile if you have SAPI 5.1 SDK installed.
Otherwise the compile flag should not be set and it should all compile OK.
- RT
They include RT's speech code. Add the preprocessor definition FS2_SPEECH to enable text-to-speech at compile-time.
Requires the Microsoft speech SDK Version 5.1 (around 55MB download).
