Virtual Hypnotist (free hypnosis software)
followthewatch55
started doing Usenet stuff recently. Virtual Hypnotist is a free,
open-source interactive hypnosis program designed to be as robust and
effective as possible (or at least as much as I can get it haha). It
is a rewrite of Hypnotizer 2000 (Hypnotizer 2000 was made from late
2000 to around early 2002, and VH started as an add-on for it in
mid-2003). Both were made mostly because I didn't really like the
hypnosis software that was out there ;)
Also the program has a built-in AIM client (called HypnoChat) which can
be used for live sessions over the internet, either one-on-one, or
group sessions.
Website is here:

(source code and package/installation scripts can also be
viewed/downloaded online by going to the Development section on the
site)
Yahoo group is here:

Current features list:
-Script maker, for easily editing scripts, and for creating your own,
which uses a flexible and unique scripting language.
-Binaural brainwave synchronizer, for generating sounds that help
induce hypnosis (sync brainwaves), and for providing flashing color
bars that visually also sync brainwaves.
-Lots of pre-made scripts, from inductions, deepeners, suggestions,
etc.
-Two subliminal message systems, which add visual subliminal messages
in sessions, and even let you display them on your computer screen
while you work
-Hypnotic visual maker, for designing your own hypnotic effects
-Cool presets that get you started instantly
-A session logbook that lets you write down successes, notes, ideas,
etc.
-Fully customizable hypnosis sessions
-Complete speech synthesis; choose from a selection of multiple voices,
and even use other SAPI4 or SAPI5-compliant speech engines (only
partial SAPI5 support is implemented).
-Speech recognition that lets you verbally respond to questions and
prompts while under hypnosis
-Easy and powerful scripting language called ISL used for creating and
processing scripts
-Animated characters used as virtual "hypnotists"
-Pop-up sessions, where the program can hide in the background and
"pop up" at a certain time, and start the hypnotic induction
-Support for video files and flash animations, via Windows Media and
Macromedia Flash, and even lots of videos/animations included
-Speed controls, to slow down and speed up both audio and video
-HypnoChat and Remote Controller, an AIM-compatible instant messaging
system that allows one user of Virtual Hypnotist control another user's
program over the Internet with the subject's consent, and even supports
group sessions
-Complete tray icon and popup menu support
-Text-only sessions that display text on the screen instead of using
the speech system.
-Background and Subliminal modes
-Support for playing hypnosis audio files, while using Virtual
Hypnotist for graphics
-3D graphics support with the TrueVision3D graphics engine
-Video and audio volume and rate changing support
-Session previewing support
-WAV file output support (SAPI5 only)
-Script Processor Console which allows a user to operate the script
system in an interactive manner
-Script Converter for converting standard text scripts to the ISL
script format
-Personalized information for use in sessions (name, gender, and
preferred trigger)
-New GrockTunnel visual, which is a remake of the Grock hypnosis
program, and supports word lists written for it.
-Comes with the Virtual Hypnotist User's Guide
-All source code is included (written in Visual Basic 6)
-And more :)

lol. So I'm guessing self hypnosis is entirely off limits in your
viewpoint, since it's too "fragile" for the average person (such as
everyone else in this group), except for self-proclaimed "experts" like
you. If you want to bash the app, go to the VH yahoo group and do it
there ;)
Also, why do you only talk like a spam bot? That right there shows
signs of psychosis.

I took a quick look at the news message headers, and it says you were
using Xnews to post that message, which is a free program. You didn't
turn down Xnews, did you? lol
I guess you haven't heard of Linux and Mozilla Firefox for example -
those are free, open-source projects. Virtual Hypnotist is an
open-source project spanning 5 years of development over 2 projects
(Hypnotizer 2000 and then VH). Have you even asked anyone if VH is
buggy and just crap? Try asking the people in the VH yahoo group haha
(there's only over 3400 members, not that much lol):

It also comes with the source code, but the code is also browsable
online (including installation/packaging scripts and other stuff):
