Garmin English-language voice versions and dates. Wed, - 11:53pm. Also noted is that there are now appearing some Garmin voices that are TTS3 which may for the new nuvi xxx7 series (or maybe just the nuvi 3597) devices that use new Real Voice files. Is there any way to convert the RGN files to.VPM and.SUM files. If you're using a Macintosh, simply double-click the.zip files to un-Zip.) These voices can be easily installed on many Garmin navigation devices by placing the.vpm files in the 'Garmin/Voice' directory on your navigation device. Here are Garmin's instructions to install voices. Use these files at your own risk.

How to get Homer Simpson (& Others) Voice on Garmin GPS
After I spent the day working my butt off, people asked me to do a post so whenever someone else needs it they could find it by searching on google (If this type of post is not ok I'll delete it right away mods).
So, if you're here that must mean you'd love to have Homer (or any other available character) himself giving you directions to your daily adventures!
And here's what you need: A Garmin GPS (some older models may not work, I couldn't find much info on this)
A PC
JetMouse 1.5 KeyGen with checksum fix
Voice files ( something something .VPM)
First, to explain how things work: Garmin uses VPM files to provide the commands, they are the actual voices you hear.
Some VPM files are locked (when you needed to purchase them), nowadays Garmin Voices have been discontinued, so I really don't know if it's illegal to share them.
To unlock the files and allow your GPS to play them, you need a UNL file.
A UNL file is simply a notepad file with a number (your key) and you save it as .UNL instead of .txt.
Now, you know how everything works, let's get cooking!
First download all the programs you need and connect your GPS to your PC.
Then, on the file explorer, open your GPS and look for a folder named 'Garmin', inside should have a file named 'Garmin.xml' in that file (which can be viewed on the internet or notepad) you can find your product ID, copy it.
Open jetmouse, place your unit ID on the Unit iD box and scroll down to select map product, click on it and go all the way to custom map, that will open another window with the following boxes:
Benjamin Medwin Caffe Espresso Manual
U he ace keygen mac free. FID, PID, RGNID and VENID Ea koetting works of darkness pdf free.
for Homer's voice, you should use these settings (also check the little box to allow editing on PID) (other voices uses different settings)
FID: 480 PID: 25 RGNID: 0 VENID: 0
Click the second generate code button (the one at the bottom)
That should generate your UNL code.
Open a new file on notepad and copy that code, nothing else.
Save it as a .unl file (check if it's not saved as .unl.txt by clicking to show extensions)(also, save it with the exact name as the VPM file)
Okay, almost over :D
Copy both the UNL and VPM to your garmin device, on the folder 'Voices'.
If everything was done correctly it should show up in the voices tab at settings inside your GPS :)
If it did not show up, most likely it was an issue with your UNL code, do it again, check everything and try again, try other voices, if nothing works, your GPS might not support it.
Adding Vehicles:
This is pretty much straight-forward, just copy the file into your GPS' Vehicles folder :)
Here are some links that should help you:
(the place where I got most of my info) https://www.gpspower.net/pois-voices-speedcams-vehicles/244039-garmin-voice-vehicle-bundles.html
(Google drive folder with JetMouse, homer's voice and car) https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/15ZH-8pTQZBoJCdfchb28bU6uYwxa6AQM?usp=sharing
Onedrive link (Same as Google Drive, kinda like a backup)
(I went to download the Keygen from Google drive and it said the file had a virus, my computer did not detect anything wrong with it, but just to be sure).
Have fun with your new pals on your daily drives :D
Edit:Some fixes and I screwed the title, oh boy.
Edit 2: on the keygen folder in google drive, there's another program, infoUC, use that to verify if the code provided by JetMouse is correct.
Edit 3: Added: Yoda, Wallace & Gromit and Cookie Monster :D
Edit 4: I've updated the link and I'll add a second one from Onedrive
Free Garmin Voice Files
Note: if you're just interested in the results without details, check the faq:
Elsewhere in the Factory's fourms, jfossy posted that there's a new Garmin nuvi 'Jill,' version 3.20, which offers 'Improved road name pronunciations.' In searching, I think that Karen, Samantha and probably Jack were also updated at about the same time with the same improvement.
I can never keep my voice versions straight so I now have a Post-It note with my English-language TTS findings. Here's what I found. Since Jack is the name used for both the high and low quality voice files, I have both listed--they are NOT interchangeable--WebUpdater or Garmin Express will offer you the one you can use. If you find updates or corrections to my list, please advise.
Please note that the nuvi model you have will dictate the TTS voices you can use--if your nuvi uses the low-quality voice engine, you need the small files and if your nuvi uses the high-quality voice engine, it uses the large files and the newest nuvis now use the TTS3 files.
Name, Current_version, Garmin's_webpage_date(m/d/y)
Large filesize, higher-quality
Jill, 3.40, 6/21/13
Jack, 2.20, 12/13/13
Karen, 2.20, 6/13/13
Lee, 1.90, 8/11/09
Emily, 2.50, 6/18/13
Daniel, 2.20, 6/18/13
Sangeeta, 1.00, 3/18/00 Power rangers dino thunder game download.
Note: the devices that use the above large filesize TTS voices also have the following non-TTS voices:
American Michelle, 2.00, 1/24/14
Australian Matilda, 1.00, possibly 12/7/11
British James, 2.10, possibly 11/29/11
British Kate, 2.10, possibly 11/30/11)
Small filesize, lower-quality
Samantha, 2.00, 6/12/13 (See my post of 6/1/14)
Jack, 2.00, 6/12/13 (See my post of 6/1/14)
Karen, 1.20, 6/18/13
Lee, 1.20, 6/18/13
Daniel, 1.30, 6/18/13

Sangeeta, 1.10, 7/20/11
Large file size, higher-quality TTS3
Serena, 2.20, 5/10/18 (also offers Real Voice)
Samantha, 2.70, 10/2/18 (also offers Real Voice)
Daniel, 2.20, 5/10/18
Jack, 2.70, 10/2/18
Lee, 2.30, 5/10/18
Karen,2.20, 5/10/18
Sangeeta, 2.20, 5/10/18
I also was pleasantly surprised to see that my nuvi 2460 shows the voice version being used in the Tools/Settings/System/About page. I think that most older nuvis (e.g., my 750 and 855) require delving into hidden developer screens to find voice versions. But my yellow Post-It is really all I need now if I keep it updated.
These voice change logs can be hard to find. I find the best way is to do an internet search for (minus the quotes) 'garmin voice version karen' and substituting the name desired in place of Karen when doing the search--or for the newest nuvis, search for (minus the quotes) 'garmin voice version serena tts3' for current updates with similar substitutions of your desired name in place of Serena. In general for now, look for internet search hits that are something like:
(for the hi-quality voices)
Voice, Australian English-Karen (TTS) software version
(for the low-quality voices--note the (v) after the (TTS))
Voice, Australian English-Karen (TTS)(v) software version
(for the TTS3 voices)
Voice, British-English, Serena (TTS3) software version
[Update 6/24/13] Thanks to MikeG1 and joegambino for quickly finding newer voice updates. Also noted is that there are now appearing some Garmin voices that are TTS3 which may for the new nuvi xxx7 series (or maybe just the nuvi 3597) devices that use new Real Voice files. I also have seen some Garmin TTS2 files but haven't found which devices use(d) them.
[Update 6/26/13] Thanks to charlesd45 for confirming that another of the xxx7 series beyond the 3597 uses Real Voice files and for further confusing me with the new nuvi 2597 model and probably many other of the new 2013 nuvi xxx7 models: I'm not quite sure where to place this so I'll offer it here for now. The new nuvi 2597, in addition to using the new large Real Voice files like TTS3 Samantha, also offers smaller voice files and yet another name: American English Michelle 2.00. And thanks for pointing out the GMapTool site.
[Update 4/18/14]
Thanks to dferron for leading me to find the new non-TTS voices for the GPS models that use the large filesize voice engine as well as the TTS Sangeeta voice.
[Update 6/1/14]
Thanks to raycock for leading me to several new updates.

A basic manual to the Steam powered espresso maker

The Basics of Steam Powered Espresso!
Who hasn't passed by a garage sale and considered buying a coffee maker which shows promise as a source of cheap espresso coffee or cappuccino for the home?
Admit it. We all want a way out of paying for those four-dollar lattes and mochas at the corner Starbucks.
It might be a Salton-Maxim or a Delonghi, a Krups, a Braun, or maybe even a pump powered unit capable of producing acceptable espresso. It might take the name of a Bialetti, Elebak, Vesubio, Bellman, Benjamin & Medwin or Vesuviana, a stove top worthy of any Saturday morning brew session.
Basic Description
A steam powered electric espresso maker generally has a thermal plastic skin with a aluminum boiler underneath, a knob or two, a two-way brew switch (offering the choice of brew or steam), a steam wand protruding from the main housing of the unit, a matching glass carafe, a handled coffee filter holder with a steel filter insert and a relatively robust screw boiler cap on top.
The super-cheap machines, which I hear about every couple of days, come from ebay bargains gone bad or a misguided garage sale purchase. Quite often these units have no brew select switch. If you are lucky your new coffee maker may have an on-off switch and, in some tragic cases, just a plug to put for electricity! Yes folks - some of these machine are so cheap they do not even have a power switch!
Let's look at the basics.
Step one: Fill the reservoir almost to the top with water. Do not fill the boiler with milk! You would be surprised how many people ask me if this is where you put the cappuccino beans and milk!
Screw the reservoir cap tightly in place. Consider a dry run. It's simple - run the unit a few times before even considering using coffee. This will give you the opportunity of understanding the basic functions of the unit and questions like
- where does the water go?
- where does the steam come from?
- how long does this unit take to heat up?
- to cool off?
When you are comfortable with your brewer, proceed.
Plug the espresso maker in. In the event that your espresso maker has no power switch, have all your accouterments ready; fresh water, milk, carafe or suitable container, and mug or cup to capture the espresso coffee upon brewing.
Step two: (for machines with a two-way brew/steam switch)
If you have a machine without a two-way brew switch follow the instructions in step four regarding steaming milk, then proceed to step five below. If you have an espresso machine with a two-way brew switch, it is up to you whether or not you wish to brew espresso coffee or steam milk first.
In my opinion, I would suggest that you steam (foam) your milk first, set it aside, then brew your espresso coffee.
Place finely ground fresh espresso coffee in the coffee holder-filter. I cannot stress enough that fresh coffee, ground fine but not espresso grind, is very important. If you wish to get results approaching drinkable, make sure you have fresh coffee, finely ground. Use some tamping pressure to compact the ground coffee, but not too much pressure.
You have tamped the coffee too much if no coffee comes out during the brew cycle. (This is called choking the brew.
Benjamin Medwin Espresso Maker Instructions
Step three: There should be a brew switch on the front or the side of your espresso maker. The two-way brew switch allows you to switch between brewing coffee and steaming milk. If your espresso maker has no two-way brew switch, then you possess the most basic espresso machine. If there is no brew switch, consider foaming the milk first, as in step four.
As your machine warms up, you will hear a rumbling sound. This is the sound of water approaching the boiling point and your unit is now ready to brew espresso or steam milk. If there is a valve adjacent to the steam wand, turn it. Steam should whoosh out.
Steam warnings!
Be very careful. Steam can scald and permanently scar skin tissue, cause injury and/or death in children and so on. Failure of the 'safety relief valve' of any espresso - cappuccino maker, stove top, electric or otherwise, can create an explosion hazard. I have seen an aluminum stove top espresso maker explode embedding the top components 4 to 6 inches through drywall! There is sufficient explosive force in any steam powered product to injure or harm bystanders or users of these products.
Step four: Open the steam valve on the side of your espresso maker. Heat your milk to 160 degrees (F) and no higher. Higher milk temperatures will scald and ruin the milk. Get a calibrated espresso cappuccino thermometer by Taylor. If you have read my tutorial on steaming milk, you have practiced and become quite successful at the art and science of foaming milk, and now have a suitable carafe of steamed and/or foamed milk standing by awaiting the addition of espresso coffee.
Step five: Put 2 tablespoons of finely ground espresso coffee into the metal coffee holder or coffee filter-holder. Tamp it down with moderate force with a coffee tamper, the back of a spoon, or something of suitable shape. Attach your coffee-filter-holder holder to your espresso maker. Place a clean carafe, mug or other suitable container under the coffee holder to catch the freshly brewed espresso coffee. Flip on the brew switch. Within a few seconds espresso coffee will come out of the holder into the carafe, mug or other container.

After 25 to 35 seconds of coffee brewing, switch off or unplug your espresso coffee maker or the espresso coffee will be bitter and over extracted. Add your steamed or foamed milk to the espresso coffee. Adding foamed milk to espresso coffee creates a cappuccino! Adding steamed milk to espresso coffee creates a cafe latte.
These rules work with all Salton, Maxim, Krups, Mr.Coffee, Braun, Delonghi, Betty Crocker and other similar espresso makers that are steam powered. Golden rule - Be careful!
