Faceposer: Fixing the Vista/7 Extraction Bug

EUREKA!
After much effort, the one bug turning most people off of Faceposer has been fixed!...Worked around. Whatever. Please let me know how well this works for other languages, because of the Speech SDK setting requirement. You may have to install the UK language pack to get it working.
Please be sure you have watched the other tutorials before posting questions. And PLEASE look at the FAQ as well:

I will be updating this shortly with all new information. If not, my direct contact info is on there (I don't quite like being sent Faceposer questions on YouTube messaging)

Been watching your videos,and they are great and well explained thankyou.However Ive started the gadget,but when i click faceposer or any other i get the message " windows cannot find undefinedhlfaceposer.make sure you typed the name correctly and try again" - how do i point the gadget to the correct path of faceposer.

I assume its what you have to do.

Much love from the UK!! :)

@electricfire7 Not sure whether to put this in the description or what, but I just had a need to do this again today; you need to set up a configuration in that desktop gadget first. The name field can be anything, the engine must refer to the real engine version of the game in question, and then the path must be the path of any gameinfo.txt file (be it your mod, or a Valve game). For something like HL2ep2 you may have to extract it via GCFscape.

doesnt work for me. keeps saying speech isnt UK no matter what

[Katana314]

@leerman22 You restarted after changing it?

[YayJike]

uuhhhhh, this has been out for a while now and I've tested it. I recorded a file in english. I wasn't aware back then about the UK/US thing. In fact, my settings are german (where I live). Yet, I had no problems.... weird....

[Katana314]

@YayJike Some people had issues where their phonemes showed up blank, myself included. I'm showing what worked for me.

Do tell why the community seems to be better at fixing Valve's bugs than Valve are? I guess they're too busy with their hat simulator.

[AceGec3D]

YES!

YEEEEESSSS!!!!!

[MrFaiz995]

do we need to have speech sdk installed?

[SuperEmoBros]

Won't work, it says I have to change to UK, even though my computer's speech options are already set on UK. I set it like that back in like June or something to get this to work for me, and it worked, but now it doesn't work.

[GTR141Foxer]

@Katana314 Apparently after the new update, the gadget tool launches faceposer. but crashes when loading a model

[moviemowdown]

I followed the instructions but it still failed, how you configure that gadget?

[216TF]

I tried and changed my speech recognition to UK and restarted several time and it still says change it to uk

[monkeyturds]

works great! make sure you get phoneme extractor 1.3. 1.2 is out of date

[av3nger3]

Ok..this really doesn't work...even after I figured out how to enable gadgets. It is informing me I need to change to UK over and over...

[av3nger3]

I could just launch faceposer without sdk anyway. Wait, you need a game config. Nevermind.
