Oleg,

about the voices for comms, have you considered asking the community (us) for contributions? I wouldn't be surprised if members from the UK (and Canada, New Zealand, Australia, South Africa) and Germany and Austria wouldn't be happy to contribute to providing their voices to SoW:BoB.

I realize that this might be difficult to organize (and do quality control), but I would imagine that there would be a lot of volunteers... Just a thought.


I *LOVE* the city shots! They are looking really great and I can't wait to see them populated with the models of buses and cars you've already shown...

Thanks again,
C_G

I think when the sim will be reelased we may organize the flow of implementation for different languages speeches in the frame of speech model we are using. I mean user made.

If it will be good enough, why not to program New Zeeland or other contries in future.
Currently we are limited in resourses that to put from the beginning all the possible in BoB speeches.

Understood, thanks for the reply.

I'm sure that when the time comes the community will be happy to help expand the variety of voices on comms.

Really looking forward to this, it's obvious your team is making great progress these days... seems like things are mostly being "tweaked" now rather than being created for the first time.

Cheers,
