Modifying/correcting TTS files

No idea. Notepad does not really use a character set as a Word Processor might, but uses whatever is installed as the Keyboard. Other editors such as Notepad+, Notepad2, etc will let you change the specific Encoding to various languages, but other than that, I don't know. It's possible that the dictionary.voice file was previously edited by others (I don't do anything but the English files) with different computer setups so that characters are all corrupted. In that case, unfortunately, it may be best to start over with the full file on that page/link and translate it line by line.

Also check the info.ini file within the {voice}.zip. If it's not there, then the error could either be in the Language file (not the voice file), or worse within the LUA files in the Config folder of the {voice}.zip...and these are a bit more difficult to edit without corrupting the entire voice file.

PS. Seeing as this thread is a Request Thread ("Where can I find......") any other "How do I...." type questions should be posted in a new thread here:

I don't think that would work so well.

And you have to like soft flaky pastries with your coffee.

Any help?
If so, extreme care should be taken editing LUA files....use WinRar and Notepad, but keep your fingers crossed. One extra space or character out of place can destroy the voice file. Work only with copies until you are sure it works.

Code:

L"Tage den 3rd %3 %then1",

Code:

L"Tage den dritten %3 %then1",
