I assume there's plenty of time to bung it in an array or something. Are you thinking maybe averaging the data over 500/fps frames or something?
[edit] no wait, thats worse.

Fixed...
just moved the mouth sizing code to the buffer copy *snip*

If ''Mouth'' is only the current millisecond's audio buffer value... that'll be why you're losing data between frames.
Can you access the data from in between the frames?

Hmm.. Yeah, that does seem to be doing that.

Currently its this...
[code]
# Draw the mouth
M1 = mouth
if M1 > M: M = M1
# M/13107
frame = int(M/2500)
M=M-32
if M<1024: M=1024
[/code]
[code]
if frame == 0:

If MouthWide>0 then MouthWide=MouthWide-0.25
If audio>MouthWide then MouthWide=audio
That way, the silence doesn't clamp the mouth shut.
It should make for a more noticeable opening.

Oh, so it's the rotation, then? Sounds like it's using basic 2D drawing methods. Aw well :(
Blinking might help, though. And the eyebrows, too. Wiggle those features!!

Currently, the eyes (ouline, pupils and whites), nose, ears, hair, face outline and mouth are all draw to a layer, then that layer is drawn to the screen. I did this so that I could rotate it as a single image rather than all the maths being done for every*snip*

That sounds so much like a Blimd Date question..

No 3 : I would be an onion. Because it has so many layers.

Dang. ...
Because it's drawing the face, or because it's drawing at all?
If you added a constantly moving background of Max-style stripes, can you keep those going at full speed whilst, in the background, drawing the face to a buffer and popping *snip*

Yes, but if he's talking the frame rate drops so low that his mouth stops moving 😅

Could he occasionally glitchily tilt his head to the side?

Stole, edited and traced some face parts from (Linkage)
No idea how I'm going to manage to do the hair though, I guess it will take multiple layers.

OK, now that I have speach working quite well, I need to work on the face some more.
