Version 4 of ETI Eloquence for NVDA 64-bit has been released. In addition to fixing indexing issues and updating parts of the documentation, the major new feature in this release is dictionary updates.
From NVDA Settings, under the Eloquence dictionaries pane, users can now choose which dictionary they want and update it directly from GitHub. These updates pull the latest daily changes rather than the official monthly releases. The available options are the IBM TTS dictionaries and the Alternative IBM TTS dictionaries.
Note: to see the Eloquence dictionaries pane, ETI Eloquence must be selected before opening the NVDA Settings dialog.

@amir @fastfinge I don't understand why I can't see the settings for Eloq itself. It works, but it also told me that when I installed it from the assets section, I already had that same version installed. It's very odd.

@FreakyFwoof @amir Yup. We lie about the addon version to NVDA. You only see the settings panel when eloquence is in use.

@fastfinge @amir It is though. I only have that and ESpeak there, and that's what's selected.

@FreakyFwoof @amir Try restarting NVDA maybe? You should have a section for eloquence dictionary. All other settings are just in speech.

@fastfinge @amir I did, twice. I'll switch to another synth and back again, maybe that fixes it.

@FreakyFwoof @amir Are there any errors in the NVDA log?

@FreakyFwoof So has this issue been resolved? I suggest switching to Eloquence before opening NVDA's Settings window because if you don't do that, the Eloquence dictionaries pane either may not appear or may pop up at the bottom of the list. If you are on the Categories list, I mean the list of tabs immediately after Apply button in NVDA's Settings window, pressing E should move you to Eloquence dictionaries.

@amir @FreakyFwoof @fastfinge So I just enabled dictionaries and I had to select one from the combo box, hit apply, before I could check for updates and it installed the dictionary.

@amir @serrebi @fastfinge It doesn't show up under windows 10, but I copied the build to a windows 11 laptop and it was there. Very odd...

@FreakyFwoof Hmm - interesting. Are you running NVDA 64-Bit on Windows 10? And which Win 10 build is it?

@amir @serrebi @fastfinge Portable, not main. And I copied that same exact copy across my network to win11, where it worked. Updated to latest alpha yesterday.

@FreakyFwoof Strange. Maybe @fastfinge would shed some light on that.

@amir @fastfinge We talked about it last night, he had no idea, just as I didn't. Also could do with another windows 10 user to test this so I know it's not just my machine.

@FreakyFwoof Maybe Win 10 is out of luck.

@amir @fastfinge Maybe. Doesn't affect me much anyway, as eloq is not my primary synth, so it's just a matter of 'Why doesn't it work' more than an actual problem, at least for me.
