@joshknnd1982 @rommix0 @MutedTrampet @TheQuinbox @BTyson @samtupy @Tamasg @AlexSpectrum93 @datajake1999 this should not be done. Licenses are in place for a reason.

@Dennislong82 @joshknnd1982 @rommix0 @MutedTrampet @TheQuinbox @BTyson @samtupy @AlexSpectrum93 @datajake1999 it depends on a bit whether it can be considered abandonware and vintage. Some things like the Keynote Demo got cracked to remove the time limit, because nobody is ever going to hunt down the makers (BestSpeech folks) to get a licensed one, since it's not a company that's around and although the tech was passed down to Lernout and Hauspi, then I think to Scansoft and Nuance, those companies don't support, sell, or resell it. So then it's in the abandonware category. I have no idea where Infovox stands. If it got passed down and the engine, even parts of it, are re-used in a newer product, then most certainly doing this type of cracking is highly unethical. It's why I'm not touching SoftVoice, again. Joseph Cats is around and the company is not deceased. So I can't condone cracking it until that full lineage is traced in an honest way, personally.

@Tamasg @Dennislong82 @joshknnd1982 @rommix0 @MutedTrampet @TheQuinbox @BTyson @samtupy @datajake1999 It seems a little bit unfair that we do have the full version of Infovox 230, but not 330, considering that I like diphone based voices the best. The reason why we are trying to get both of them working is because they are TTS engines that are long abandoned (from around 1999-2002), and you can't purchase licenses for them anymore.
