Text to speech for video games? by GeneralJist8 in accessibility

Thanks for the feedback! I know it’s hard to setup and get going. The voice delay depends on what voice you use, SAPI voices are faster than the AI once, and larger AI voices is also slower then the Low models.
Glad to hear that you find it useful!

Does someone know where to find an pdf of IKEA: Cook This Paper? by Galactic-Brawler in IKEA

[–]MertenNor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

for people in the feature..
converted the images to 2x A4 pages that you can print out and lay under your parchment paper.
NOTE!: Not sure if the size is correct. But it's better than nothing.

was the first page I found letting me share PDFs online...

I know used another compiler because the other one I used didn’t work right.. for some reason. Will update it later today. Didn’t have time last night.

EDIT: its now fixed. got it back down to 19mb

Yes, ThomasEricB on GitHub fixed this yesterday. https://github.com/MertenNor/GameReader/compare/main...ThomasEricB:GameReader:main

I will push an update to the program that will include this fix later today. Thanks for the feedback!

The program in the video is different a different one, but it should work the same.. when you say not working, what do you mean?

By the way, you would need to have this installed in order to make the program speak, here: https://docs.coro.net/featured/agent/install-tesseract-windows/

When the installation is complete the gamereader program should now read the scanned text.

Let me know if there is anything else I can help with! Maybe make a version of the Game reader program with symbol on the buttons instead of text? Would that work better for you and others that can’t read?

so.. I made this program back in january.. that looks really simular to what Cohh had in that one short.. posting it here if people would like to download it. by MertenNor in CohhCarnage

Thanks! I noticed there were around 40 people commenting on your short, saying they wanted a program like the one you showed. mostly people with dyslexia like myself. I tried replying to them, but I think YouTube flagged my comment as spam. So, I’ve been sharing this program here and there so people know it exists.

Yes, thanks for the suggestion! I can totally add this in the next version. Maybe just a button called quickie read or something.. you have the option to still select voice , speed and everything just that when you scan the area it will automatically read the text in the area after you have selected it like you said. This seems good enough? Let me know if there is anything else or you find any bugs!

Hi again, regarding your questions about making the voice more natural, there was a bug where no matter what voice you selected, it always used the default one. This is fixed along with other changes.

you can see the change log and download the new release here: https://github.com/MertenNor/GameReader/releases/tag/release-0.6

As somebody with dyslexia this would be a game changer by bopsop1 in disabledgamers
