We're excited to announce our new free Adventure Creator actions for SALSA LipSync Suite. This free add-on exposes essential SALSA LipSync Suite functions to the fantastic Adventure Creator system. We're also pleased to announce a SalsaTextSync integration option using our new Adventure Creator listener for SalsaTextSync add-on. Together, these systems offer automatic lipsync of dialogue audio and dialogue text using Adventure Creators native Dialogue : Play speech Action, and we think that's pretty cool!
