@datajake1999 For good reason. Those early Scansoft voices were very sluggish, unstable, and were never updated to work with anything newer than Windows XP SP2. No sense sinking licensing costs into something so unreliable.

@sclower That makes sense.

@datajake1999 What'd it use, SAPI voices?

datajake1999, 30 days ago

@remixman It was a SAPI4 synth.

@datajake1999 Oh wow. I never knew that it even did, or that RealSpeak was even a thing in, what would that've been, 2004?

@FluidEscence Window Eyes 4.5 was released in 2003. That is a version I still want to get my hands on. If @Jage is able to find the install disks, that might actually happen.

FluidEscence, 30 days ago

@datajake1999 @Jage same. That would be cool to play around with

datajake1999, 30 days ago

@FluidEscence @Jage Also notice I said disks. Apparently in versions prior to 5.0, the MP3 manual was supplied on a separate CD.

@FluidEscence @datajake1999 I highly doubt I have it sadly.I think if anything 5 was the first version I had paid for.

datajake1999, 30 days ago

@Jage @FluidEscence That's OK. Besides 4.5, the only version I am really after is 5.5, since I don't have an official dump of that version.
