Are there any copyright/legal issues with using microsoft sam voices in games (commercial or freeware), so long as they are modified with sound software? Although i have modified them it is still fairly obvious by the pronounciation that it is microsoft sam, which is why im asking.

I cant seem to find anything which says whether i can or cant.

Froggie?

More like Stephen Hawkings with a cold (Frog in a throat I guess...) On the subject of Stephen Hawkings, I reckon he makes everything up, when any one asks him he says 'Ah! But I'm the second smartest man in the world, the smartest being a fish-man hybrid (Somewhat a fishy character), so I am always right ahahahaha bananas aren't real, they're an illusion created by the desire for them to exist!'

So really, time isn't going backwards, he's playing tricks on ya, that old Mr Hawkings, sly as a Camel...

I like how you completely changed the topic all on your own, most of the time it usually takes about 3/4 posts for that

There are 2 sets of voices that I have purchased which are really nice, one set is the AT&T true voices, they are large though, several hundred megs each. Then the others are the Neospeech voices, those are really nice too.

You can get them with different accents too, so Spanish Accent, American style, UK style, etc. As for the rest of the voices I have heard, they are the 'pants' as my friends accross the ocean say.
