Even though, Im working on uae4all2-HD-Vita port to PSP.
I have start working on something that bugged me since I was a kid.

Dune is one of my favorite games (not DuneII), the point and click adventure type one.
So it annoyed me, the sega cd got a talkie version. So I have started working on a talkie version for Amiga.
With help of the openarakis site online, which is a reversed engineered version of PC DOS CD version.
As it uses same tools and file structures, Im hoping I can add speech samples to amiga exe.
I currently have speech tables worked out of all file naming and how it decides and triggers.

In a comment on Amiga disrupt, I posted a quick video of one of my early attempts.
Basically, its one sample, the first speech in game "Im duke leto Atreides".
At present, it loads game like normal, music plays, you start game, click the duke and audio level drops and speech plays, speech ends, audio level goes back to normal.
We hijack 2 audio channels to play sample, then return them to paula after. Its almost playing speech correctly, just have a stuttering issue to resolve.
