About

This mod is a sound-pack to enable crude voice synthesis in-game via phoneme concatenation (combining the base sounds of speech together to form words). I've written a small java application to enable easy text to speech, inputting text and outputting a Factorio blueprint to build in-game (available at: https://github.com/Minimal-C/FactorioTextToSpeechJava), but feel free to use the phoneme clips however you like.

Examples

• Hello Smithers - https://youtu.be/Y875JPsUVJg

Contents

• 1 Voice (cmu_us_kal from CMU Flite)
  • 39 phoneme sounds (As defined by the CMU Pronouncing Dictionary http://www.speech.cs.cmu.edu/cgi-bin/cmudict)

Future

• Add more voices
• Add diphone voices (containing approx 1600 sounds per voice), expect much higher quality speech synthesis.

Thanks To

• Sephumbra for their mod "Programmable speaker sounds" on which the sound importing of this mod was based on.
