I seem to remember hearing that #nvda has a mode you can use for games where the speech isn't interrupted if you are holding a key when it says something. Anyone know how to activate this mode if it exists?

@storm Sure, check in NVDA menu -> Preferences -> Settings -> Keyboard.

@storm if you are talking about typing interrupt, then yes. that's a check box in keyboard settings. If you are talking about when you are holding down the control key, I'm not sure.

@baethyn I tried type interrupt and it didn't do exactly what I wanted, because Control is one of the keys I use to play the game. I did find the solution though. If something is using the nvdaControllerClient and you don't want speech interrupted on key presses, put #nvda in sleep mode, NVDA+Shift+s. It worked quite awesomely.

I have been working the past few days to get text to speech support in Toby Doom on Windows. I have been successful for the most part, and there's now a powershell script that uses nvdaControllerClient.dll. If interested, more information on the audiogames.net forum.

@storm Sleep mode? Insert + Shift + S.

@pixelate @storm Or Caps Lock + Shift + Z in laptop layout.
