Tried everything to change Hypii's voice.
I'm stuck with the german female voice and I can't do anything about it. Changing it in the BIOS didn't work, so I actually set everything on my PC to english, reinstalled the game... and the german voice is still the default and can not be changed.

If the checkbox state doesn't change at the same time as the voice number than BIOS settings aren't saved.

This is 100% your OS, there's nothing in the game itself that does speech synthesis. Perhaps try to download and install additional voice packs as it says here? https://support.office.com/en-us/article/how-to-download-text-to-speech-languages-for-windows-10-d5a6b612-b3ae-423f-afa5-4f6caf1ec5d3

I have done that. Literally everything in my OS is set to english now. The speech language, Text-to-speech is David, Country or region is US and display language is English as well.
The problem is that the game keeps defaulting Hadda, the german text-to-speech, and not saving anything else.
I probably would have to deinstall Hadda in some way, I'll try that.

... Which seems harder than you might think in Win10. It seems I would have to get rid off the german language pack in general to get rid off Hadda, which is not my intention.

Huh, I wish I could help you more. I'll ask our team though and get back to you if I figure anything more out!

Oh my god... It's LITERALLY JUST the order in which you have to do it. Change the number, THEN tick the checkbox. That's it. Thanks.

I have found a way to get Microsoft Sam, Mary and Mike's voices. Here's the download link[www.dropbox.com]

Oh my gosh! Installing this actually worked! Now the BIOS says that there's 4 voice options!

I know this is a really old thread, but using either instuction didn't work for me, Hypii still has the German voice pack
