@chongdashu I used Kokoro TTS which is a relatively small (local) model. You can pre-warmup the model so it is nearly instant when playing around with a scene.
There are some baked-in voices that are ok (but lack the expression and quality eleven labs has) and are great for testing.
@chongdashu Can't wait to see where you take this next. I'm looking into making a small game featuring my kids for their birthdays and have been able to produce the engine, but the 2d artwork and animations are still where I struggle the most. I hope to learn some good tricks here :)
@jukaamusic Will you be sharing the patch or how you did it? Would love to play around with this. I did some experiments, but I am not successful at getting it to sound like this…
@royvanrijn Luckily that’s something that improves rapidly. But the rest… I remember stepping on the soccer pitch and trying to run like I did when I was much younger. Everything hurt that day. Ego too 😬
@royvanrijn Hope you feel better soon! I am hoping to get my first full night of sleep in, maybe 5 days now? My mind has gone to bits (even worse than normally is the case)… But I think tonight will be the night.
@jreijn I cancel and reactivate the services whenever something worth watching is added; maybe that’s how we will be using these services in the future
