My main speech dictionary now has this new rule to suppress the following since I've been encountering it more and more.
"A D V E R T I S E M E N T"
In case you were wondering,, each letter is pronounced every time a frame opens where an ad is supposed to go and the end of the frame. It's as annoying as it sounds. Nothing like interrupting the reading flow.
Wishing ad blockers were smart enough to remove the frames along with the ads.
Hi everyone! Can anyone who depends on a screen reader read this for me and tell me if it works? I'm making a tutorial on how to make a Roguelike for my blind accessible game engine, so just wanna make sure it's in a good format! It will have informational and instructional content split up to hopefully make it easier for screen readers to find what is needed. Download .txt sample file here!
@Ericbomb@talon I am waiting for this engine, I will play with it when it comes, I'm happy that we will have something actually workable and I hope that I will be able to redistribute games made with this thingy.
@Ericbomb@talon
you should make 2 types of an executable.
one that would launch encrypted, unmodifiable game files, as devs would love to close down their projects.
next one would be executable for the developer, which would prompt for the password while running and will be decrypting and encrypting them in the background.
@Ericbomb@talon good.
and, do you need help with compiling under macOS?
or do you need the library for speech?
I really would love to try it under macOS
So… Um… I hit VO+SHift+L on Sonoma, and… Alert “VoiceOver” is using a deprecated API that will be removed in the future. Please contact the developer for an updated version.
First reaction after installing Apple Beta 2 on Mac (iPhone is still updating): Pitch changes are still broken with VO and multi case strings are still strung together with Eloquence, and I still can't control VO through Applescript. On the other hand though, we got even more per-voice settings for Eloquence. The pitch base parameter now works, and we got 2 new switches. Phrase prediction and abbreviation dictionary. Very happy about that last one!
