I didn't play with other languages settings yet, but I know that it all is possible.
Right now, (since American and British English core components are the same) you probably may try to install only British Engilsh TTS engine and see what happens. I have read in docs that most of Agent characters are compiled so the default output TTC engine is American. If you find on the Web the Agent character compiled with British English language ID, that should work right away. Also, characters may be recompiled with Character Editor which you also can download. You may create the character yourself (I created the Invisible character) and assign British TTS to it. Could be fun to create an Agent Character from your own pictures. :)

Next option will be the check for the speech engines installed and allow to select and set one of them for the default use. The documentation says:

"To query for or set an engine's mode ID, use TTSModeID. With TTSModeID you can set a mode ID that is different from the character's LanguageID. For instance, you can set a German character to speak using a French mode ID. Speech output engine mode IDs not only define which engine you use, but also correspond to specific voices supported for an engine. You can also use the Microsoft Agent Character Editor or the tools included in the Microsoft Speech SDK to query for the mode IDs of TTS engines installed on your system."

It is on my list, but I didn't get there yet. :)
