Increase volume for speech synthesis, eg; comms

[CWolfXUK]

Basically the speech is really quiet for me. Not the "Missile Lock" and other preset speech but the Text to Speech elements, where any on screen messages such as Comms are read by the dynamic synth.

Any ideas on how to boost this would be great.

Running on Windows 10.

There are two options here:

• If you are using the default female voice, switch to the male one. It is a bit louder.
• Browse into oolite.app\Resources\espeak-data\voices\!v folder and open the file named "f2" in a text editor. This is the default female voice we are using in the game. Then, change the value of voicing from 20 to something like 100 and that should bring it to at least the volume levels of the male voice. It will make it just slightly rougher, but hopefully still pleasant enough.

Hope this helps.

Sir, you are a stellar being!
Thank you for that - worked a treat. Been bugging me for ages, however lost my ability to log in here and ask - been too busy/lazy to sort new login!

Just to update (yes, it was me before); the RP English Female sounds fine at 120. Not natural, which is fine as it is meant to be the shipboard AI.
