vectrexroli Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 Here I show the 8 classic Texas Instruments TI-99/4A games Parsec, Alpiner, Star Trek, M*A*S*H, Microsurgeon, Moon Mine, Fathom and Buck Rogers. All those games on cartridge work on unexpanded TI-99 computers, but also support the optional speech synthesizer. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

am1933 Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 Now what we need is a version of Alpiner with the voice of Roli and a version of Parsec with the voice of Mrs Roli Another great video Roli!!!!!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
am1933 Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 Just had another thought, what about a ti99/4a with an internal speech synth with the voive of Mrs Roli that can recognise the current Ebay value of games, so that when you insert your latest rare DataBiotics find, the computer utters choice phrases such as "More crap from Ebay", or "Don't Bullsh*t me - I know exactly how much you paid for this". 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dexter Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 Great video! Yet another Like ! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
globeron Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 Great video as always! Do we have a list of all modules/games that supports Speech? Probably Ralf has. Lasso is another classic. "Oh no the sheep busted out". Btw for the expansion built-in PEB box card with speech synthesizer I came along one that starts to speak when you turn on the computer. #Texas Instruments home computer# who invented that? Great idea! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vectrexroli Posted June 27, 2015 Author Share Posted June 27, 2015 Thanks for the positive feedback, I really had fun shooting that video, it felt good playing Parsec again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Ksarul Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 The SNUG SPVMC card is the one that talks to you on startup. . . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
globeron Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 Thank you Jim for clarifying. I did not realise it was the SNUG version! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Ksarul Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 I think the Berlin User Group card designed by Winfried Winkler does it too, as he had a hand in the software for both cards. Initially he was trying to figure out the TE-II to see if he could use the code from it on his board--but I pointed him to the Text-to-Speech disk from TI, which was a lot easier to modify for his purposes. . .I have one of the 20 or so boards the Berlin Group made--and I have an SPVMC. They are both interesting PEB boards. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omega-TI Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 /COMPLAIN MODE ON The Star Trek game in your video is in SERIOUS NEED of hacking! Seriously, who's bright idea was it to design it for joystick TWO?!? I'd put it in a .DSK image and actually play it if used the standard joystick one for regular play. /COMPLAIN MODE OFF BTW - Good video (as always). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
