Re: Tolc nd Wine support?

The only problem with this is that, IIRC, speechsdk only installs in a 32bit prefix, and the game in question is 64bit however. Which is, unfortunately, the sticking point that's being run into. I've had succcess using nvda2speechd, which redirects NVDA's output through speech-dispatcher and works in both 32 and 6bit

Hello,

There is in fact a way to get NVDA working under wine, which would allow Tolk to be used. If you have an NVDA portable copy, you'll have a much better time getting this to work. It boils down to install msaa, speechsdk, and have at least win8 as your windows version in the prefix. Then run nvda.exe, say no if NVDA goes on about it not being able to start securely, and close the dialog for any addon updates. Now if you run a game, it'll come up talking with NVDA. If anyone has problems getting it working, let me know and I'll see what I can do.

This is more for the WINE users, but....

This came up due to a game updating to use Tolc, and the discussion switly turned to kay, how do we get a workaround to make it run under WINE?

The game ships with a Tolc dll, as well as an NVDA dll. The NVDA dll isn't the problem, that can be worked around with nvda2speechd, but it's Tolc that is the issue. What is a good starting point to work around this?

Rastislav, I'm hoping you can look at this and help out, you cracked nvda2speechd wide open and came up with that after all
