Author: ShadowHunter (website)

EZTalk is a free plug-in for AdventureMaker that works transparently behind the AM dialog engine and allows you to easily create intelligent spoken dialogs and launch audio files with only a few lines of code.

By intelligent I mean that EZTalk is able to link questions and answers automatically for maximum flexibility. It also features delay functions, independent volume and balance controls, looping, dialog skipping/breaking and events to interact with AdventureMaker.

You have a total of 5 audio channels at your disposal to create the most realistic AM game ever. Two of those channels are specially designed for dialogs purposes and the other 3 for general purpose like background sounds launched by script (for puzzles, outdoor, games, random, etc...).
