I just realized, an “Accessibility” section is missing in this forum? Anyways, Does anyone know of any TTS solutions for games? I did some basic research a few nights ago, and most of the solutions were AI stuff trying to replace Voice actors, That is not what I'm looking for. I'm looking for something that allows for TTS in games for just reading in game text of any kind.

Flip side to the budget issue. The stars align and things are going better than expected. The game is actually under budget/ahead of schedule than projected. In this case do developers keep things within the original scope or try to add more to take advantage of the additional budgetary leg room?

With 3.8.6, everything seems to work correctly at first sight, but when you disable then re-enable labels, they generate draw calls as if there were no font bitmap (or bi.
