ROM Hack Tomodachi Text to speech analysis/mod?

[pastaconsumer]

also theres a file in there called
clc_enu_samantha_cfg1.dat

goggling that i found a source code

Github

and that points to some old android Motorola tts files.
which is kinda odd because thats another engine.
as well as another company called
Nuance, a (TTS company)

see here for some of there work. if we can at least replace it with this this would be cool

dosent look free but its a example

Why is it that Japanese Kyoto sounds so realistic? I wonder what English voice would be the best fit.

I think it needs a female voice for some reason

is very interesting because it has Wii U and part of reggie's name in it

Yea from what I see that file contains custom word pronunciation.

 

[JOS7878]

Yeah, they are the same voices, sorry for necro.

 

[Lenhador]

Wow, adding another text to speech language inside Tomodachi would be amazing. But it does sound super hard
Has anyone made progress in this? I'd like to start modding and translating, but I have 0 experience.

I wonder if we can import other TTS-based voices, like the UK voice "Lawrence" from Cepstral. It sounds the most realistic to me.

@xdarkmario @Calafska
Cool, I just figured out what exactly those .bin "ENU" files are, and how they can be swapped out for higher quality versions.

Tomodachi Life voices are created using low-quality versions of TTS voices from Nuance.
I found a site that allows you to download a demo of any Nuance TTS voice (all are high-quality).
Surprisingly, the computer TTS files are the same file-format as the Tomodachi Life speech files. (except they are HUGE compared)
Here is my Tom US voice:

I think someone COULD replace the 3DS Tomodachi speech files with the high quality ones,
but the game would take up like 2 gigabytes.

btw i downloaded the voice file but in which folder would i find that bin?
Edit i unpacked the inno setup and got it

i have modified and aligned the headders on the new HQ voice but i dont know how to inject it back into the components_cmn_LZ.bin
every file explorer only lets me export not import.

Lol I forgot about this,
@xdarkmario have you looked into this any more since like last year? (I think it was)

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

Also, the other guy that was helping me with this was banned for some reason?
I dunno, can't even remember his username.

how to use text to speech

 

[Hambrew]

sorry for the super-necro, but I need to recreate an episode of Mii News for a school project... oof. definitive answer yet to come.

For the OP, I think your problem is re-injecting the files back into the yadayada_LZ.bin, right? Because I think (emphasis on think) that one of Kuriimu ( http://gbatemp.net/threads/release-kuriimu-a-general-purpose-game-translation-toolkit-for-authors-of-fan-translations.452375 )'s tools can open 3DS LZ archives and possibly edit them as well? Just wanted to help because the mii's voices are pretty annoying.

edit - I can't check, but if someone could confirm?

Sorry for reviving this dead thread, but I can't seem to find the site mentioned that allows you to download demos of TTS files. May I ask what it is?

Also, has any progress been done on this? I checked Kuriimu2 and there doesn't seem to be any way to edit LZ archives. There's only an option to decompress/recompress them.

Hey, found that thread too but I don't know how to do that but it seems possible ! I guess...
