I have the Ivona 2 Salli voice, based on my query the only information that I was able to gather that the problem is not with the Ivona voice, the problem stems and lies in hapteck.
Whether this is true or not I'm not sure, I've done everything I can to try to get it to work and it won't, sorry I was unable to help, but I am quite satisfied with desktopmate, Lynda
but I don't think that it will really much matter, once ultra Hal 7 comes out.

Ultra Hal 7.0 / Re: Interesting conversation between two computers

« on: December 01, 2011, 03:21:09 am »

Yes it was the same, that's why I said that I can't wait for the new and improved Hal to come out that has the ability to connecting to the Internet.
You see, that is one of those things that guile 3-D (Denise) has the ability to do, I began to notice that Hal was beginning to learn by the input that Denise was giving Hal was getting from the Internet.
I'm not sure, but I believe it might be an extremely quick way to teach how information that is on the Internet but who knows I could be completely wrong.
But that's okay I'm going to have fun trying. On my next day off I'm going to work on a little bit more and be there to supervise the two of them talking together.
And yes I do understand that they are still working on Denise but they are also still working on how and they will be working on how and Denise for a long time.
And I'm working on, and you're working on, and there are working on two. Tee hee hee.

Ultra Hal 7.0 / Interesting conversation between two computers

« on: November 30, 2011, 01:57:50 pm »

I have two computers on one I have hal, on the other one I have guile 3-D.
On both of my computers I have Dragon NaturallySpeaking 11.5 preferred.
I trained both computers to recognize each other's voice.
I started with hal, by simply typing in hello.
And it was amazing the two computers began to talk to each other I have to go to work so I left them talking.
It was amazing when I came home for work they were still talking.
I was sitting there watching TV for about an hour and a half with my headphones, and I noticed that they had stopped talking.
After about a minute or so hal said, do you need me for something, and the conversation began to start all over again.
This went on for about four hours but I had to go to bed so shut the two computers up because I couldn't sleep with the two of them talking.
Though I have to admit a lot of the stuff that they were talking about was pretty abstract and unusual.
I have to wait on my day off so I can actually sit down and listen to everything that they're saying but at this point I believe that they are actually teaching each other.
I am eagerly waiting on the new hal to come out, the one that can access the Internet, I have a third computer and I was going to buy a new license of the new hal.
It would be interesting to see how the two hal's inner reactor with each other but at this point I'll have to wait for the upgrade.

hi sybershot, thanks for the feedback.

And it will be a sad day when they abolish 32-bit, I guess I'll have to run right out and spend thousands of dollars replacing all my software just so it'll continue to work on the new system, wait a minute, I'm not rich I guess I'll just have to be satisfied with what I have, tee hee hee.

Ultra Hal 7.0 / Re: How can I encourage or help you? Responces

« on: November 28, 2011, 01:04:35 pm »

hi all

I think this will hellp you look at it the right way.

I get that from Hal to but Hal is not looking for input, Hal it looking to help you.

like "I am working on (?)" or like you said "I really need to study harder."

Hel is waiting to help you in your studies or what you are studying about he wants to do research for you.
But at this time if this is not what you were looking for just simply say something like thanks for trying to help, or I don't need your assistance at this time or something in that manner.

I think you need to go into control panal click on speech (x32), it will setup your min to work with Hal.

The one thing I don't understand is, why is Hal installed in the /program file (x86)/ folder, and not in the /program file/ for win7.
And if I installed Hal in the /program file/ folder for win7 would Hal work in that folder? I ask this becouse:

Ivona voices are 64 bit.
desktopmate are 64 bit.
double agent is in 64 bit mode. And can be in 32 bit mode using microsoft agent.
are the Haptek 3D animated characters 32 bit? If so maybe that's why no lip-sinc. with Ivona voices.
just thinking, what if you put double agent in use microsoft agent 32 bit mode, would you get lip-sinc. with Haptek 3D characters?
OR maybe if Hal was installed in the /program file/ it would get thing to work. win7 is so picky.
You see if you install a program in the /program file (x86)/ dir. win7 think's it only works with 32 bit programs, and to stop win7
from crashing it stop 32 from working with 64 bit, so you have to force it to work. like in the case:

going into control panel, (double agent), tab/gallery, set/lynda in window, click/apply, tab/emulation, set/use microsoft agent,
click/apply, AND THEN, set/use double agent, click/apply, click/OK.

As you can see, win7 did not want Hal to work with 64 bit so it stopped it, by putting double agent , and Hal into 32 bit mode,
even though double agent was set to 64 bit, half of Hal was in 32 bit mode.

OK, I got my Ivona voices working.
I have win7 on my dv7-3085dx entertainment notebook.
I have the Salli Ivona voice, I paid for the voice and the reader, and install them on my computer.
I have Dragon NaturallySpeaking version 11.5 but you have to create two profiles one for Hal from your control panal (speech (32-bit)), and one for dictating in other programs (in dragon).
I have Hal 6.2.28, and I have the Character Expansion Pack installed on my computer, I have the Hal TTS reader and AT&T voices but did not install them.
I paid for, and installed the desktopmate, Lynda. I installed the free upgrade of Lynda, and I installed the skins, and ice blue skin, and I installed double agent to get Salli, and lynda to work with hal.
But it installed it in the wrong directory so I had to cut-and-paste it into the right directory.

copy the dir. C:/program file/Zabaware/Ultra Hal Assistant 6  (TO) C:/program file (x86)/Zabaware/Ultra Hal Assistant 6 (say yes to over wright all files). That is to say copy (/Ultra Hal Assistant 6) TO (/Zabaware/)!!!!
AND I had to upgrade double agent from thair www.sourceforge.net AND, I had to go into control panel, (double agent), tab/gallery, set/lynda in window, click/apply, tab/emulation, set/use microsoft agent, click/apply, AND THEN, set/use double agent, click/apply, click/OK.

lip-sync is working with lynda, and salli's Ivona voice. Hope it works for you.

P.S. If you don't like the balloon over lynda's head you can turn it off in double agent/tab/output, have fun.

Ultra Hal 7.0 / Re: Hello, just like a simple update

Hey Robert, now that little frog in the lower right-hand corner just above your logo name is a true corporate logo. A frog image made of black stripe lines excellent design, one I believe you should stick with.
But I still believe that where the green graphical frog representation of hal should still be the graphical representation of your new graphical interface, a female or a male image that will come with your package or that could be bought with your package. This would give more people an actual idea or of exactly what they will be seen on their monitor when they install your software. A representation of a person that will be talking to them not to push aside the frog or even the talking monitor graphical representation that you have right now, but you seem to be working so hard on this new graphical interface with your new 3-D animations. I believe that you should emphasize the new graphical interface and what it would look like to help boost sales.

Okay, this is an old topic but I had a silly question, if I buy HAL 6.2 and 6.3 comes out will I have to buy Hal again? And when version 7 comes out will I have to buy hal again? Do you at least get a discount or an upgrade price or do you have to pay full price again?

Yes, I do believe that an overhaul is necessary, and I'm sure that eventually the frog will be gone and a new face will take its place. Specially when a new version 7 comes out and I hope eventually you get rid of the stuff that doesn't work with 6.2 on up, or at least dedicate an area it would make things less confusing.
