One option for simple lip-synching with the Complete Character Avatars is to attach a custom Vizard face object (.vzf file). See the Tutorial: Custom avatar heads in VizHelp for more information.

The following script quickly demonstrates this approach, combined with the new 'talk1' animation:

import viz

viz.go()

female = viz.add('vcc_female.cfg')
female.face('biohead_talk.vzf')
female.state(14)

female.translate(0,0.1,0.5)
female.rotate(0,1,0,180)

speech = vizact.speak('yourspeechfile.wav')

def mykey(key):
	if key == ' ':
		female.add(speech)
		
viz.callback(viz.KEYBOARD_EVENT,mykey)

Hope this helps!
