Still haven't had time to work on the DLL but I will. Been having far too much fun working on my single chip video generator....

I'm going to clean up the wave files and then have to find a replacement for BASS for audio output. My ChipTalk program is free and includes BASS. I don't want to require BASS for my DLL to work.

Actually, would you want Blitz to handle the audio playback. Maybe you would just call out to the DLL for text to speech and then a routine in blitz would take care of playing the wave file. I'm not sure if an external dll plays audio that it is going to mix correctly with Blitz.

Question to the people who are interested - Do you want a text to speech solution for blitz or just a simple dll for windows use? I don't think they would be the same thing.
