Thread: TTS Voices require editing, can anyone help?

Critical while you try to modify voice.zip files is to do the following:
Save the changes you made in a lua file , BUT then you must wait for 2 sec in order the changes
you have made to take action and to the voice.zip file too !!!
Furthermore you should use a win rar 3.80 up to 3.93 (with other win.rar maybe you will get a corrupted .zip file).

Another approach to modify .zip file:
1.Open with a winrar the voice.zip file you want to modify...
2.Copy the file you want to make changes (from the menu of winrar) and paste it to your PC.
3.Make the changes to this file and save them.
4.Open the voice.zip file with a win.rar (never unzip the voice.zip file): double click to the voice.zip
5.Copy the file that you have made changes in your PC
6.Then paste this file using the menu of winrar to the voice.zip file.


To fix the pronunciation for driver alerts (that comes from map) you should open the file i18/dictionary.voice with a notepad and
there you will find all the things that you want to modify.


Furthermore inside the voice.zip in the file dictionary.voice if you set:

Caution speed camera ahead="Caution speed camera be careful"
Caution mobile speed camera ahead="Caution mobile speed camera ahead"
Caution traffic light camera="Caution traffic light camera"
...........................................................................
...........................................................................


and then you have in sys.txt:
[speedcam_category:0]
activated_spoken_type=speech
activated_speech="Caution speed camera ahead"
approach_beep_spoken_type=0
approach_beep_speech=0
approach_beep_sound=0
overspeed_spoken_type=0
overspeed_speech=0
overspeed_sound=0
warn_distances="150:2000,140:1800,130:1500,120:1400,110:1300,100:1200,90:1100,80:1000,60:700,50:600,40:500"


then TTS will announce to you acurate this : Caution speed camera be careful
