MY personnel review of Poserspeak...Record speak tabOnce the speech dialogue text is typed in the preview/pause/save buttons. Preview rename it to play Pause does not pause it, it stops it and when you press preview it starts all over again pressing pause again does not un-pause it Save could do with a browse box to see what names you have used , why well I tend to apply the voice and movement to the figure save the file in poser then do another speech file. This allows me to render overnight while in the day time keeps me working. Also when I save and go back to poser to see the result and dont like it, going back into Poserspeak (remembering to delete the added frames) I maynow alter the strength re-save then back to poser, I may do this several time till I'm happy with the speed / lip movement pauses etc I would like to see a load button so I could go back to a previous saved as that might have been the best also I tend to forget names I've used and might overwrite a file I could be using later on in the overnight render Now I have noticed in Poser unless I set the frames too 1 and 1 instead of the default 1 and 30 ( the point was on 1 and then moved to 30 to see if it made a difference, no)Poserspeak does not transfer the wav file. It does the head movements etc but no sound only on the first attempt, strange? Voice Preferences voice drop down fine Volume slider at the end a number setting box Pitch slider at the end a number setting box Rate slider at the end a number setting box (have noticed using TextaLoud voices the only thing these sliders adjust is the volume) Animating Preferences Strength slider again a number box at the end (this though is a great added slider as before I was having to do adjustments in the 'P6 folder' renamed for some of the fiqures as the lip movement was too great very nice saved a lot of work) Check boxes all fine and key frame interval ok Now here comes a extra, needs a save as / load button so I can save and then load the pre-defined setting voice/volume/pitch/rate/strength/checkboxes for a particular figure that I wish to use again with the same voice etc I had noticed the bottom line does tell you what setting but having Notepad loaded to keep track is not the best solution Morph routing Using templates used this alot for the different figures but has been kind of over-written with the strength slider but I do like being able to alter things The other drop-down boxes are fine and you can produce some very weired effects like this Installation I think you have this right and although I only use the 1 box the option is there Python buttons does what its says in the description ok About glad you included the readme button / visit site and the check for updates my 'bookmarks' are fit to bursting and hence is so easy to find this way Now some may think I've been harsh here, not meant to be , I think this product is excellent and so easy to use, it will no doubt draw a lot of people to it rather than something else and I wish the auther every success Recommendation 9 Easy to use 9 Documention 8 Ezamples 8 (would like to see them as a optional sownload) Overall rating 7 P.S my spelling 2 no 1 sorry
