Title: [MANUAL] - navigation voices (18.8.2011)
Post by: Menion on August 18, 2011, 12:12:56
Since version 1.9.8

Locus allow "navigation" along route computed by MapQuest server (or any other)

Here is short description, how to create and use voice files

*.VIF and *.ZIP (you can also *.BMP) files, copy directly into Locus/data/nav_audio directory.

INFO: description of all voices is here (//http://create.tomtom.com/manuals/create-your-own-content/index.html?concatenating_voice_cmds.htm), together with some more info about this format

INFO: actual 'BETA' system allow to change voices, when you start navigation and tap on arrow symbol

Hi,
did not get voices to be played. Installed correctly, can switch between Yoda, DarthVader, Arnie,..showing "process successfully" but do not hear anything. Set sound to max, but quess there is more setting to set. But where?
Turns are shown correctly, car is displayed, everything looks fine - except the silence
Pls help with this great feature.
Thx

Rob

pretty simple answer ... sounds to play are computed by actual speed. When you only move with cursor over map at home, you'll hear nothing. Go out around a house ;)

Just a quick question, do voices work in Free, too, or Pro only?

Hi,

did someone the steps above to create voice-files and have the possibility to share it in a compressed file?
Ok, I did'nt try it. But a collection of languages (like the vector-maps) would be great to download or directly to install ;-)

Thanks a lot!

Cheers,

R2D2

Hi Menion,

a little correction in your sample-file (sorry for my accuracy): the voice R2D2 should renamed in C3PO, cause R2D2 can unfortunately not speak in words :-)
