"The SoundBank is missing files" - how to get information on the missing files?

0 votes
Hi,

I've encountered a non-fatal error when generating a SoundBank in my Wwise project - the message that Wwise presents is simply "The SoundBank 'MySoundBank' is missing files." This error does not prevent the SoundBank from being generated, so it is not a showstopper, but I would like to get rid of the error if I can. In navigating to the Details tab of the SoundBank Editor, I can see that there is one missing file in 'MySoundBank', but that seems to be the extent of the information that Wwise provides. How can I determine which file Wwise considers to be missing so I can re-add it? Googling this error does not give any results and there is no discussion of it that I can find in the Audiokinetic Community Q&A.

Thanks,

Alexander

I have the same issue as well now. Couldn't find a solution to this online.
I wonder why and how the questions on this forum never gets answered.

so its a strange fix and an old thread - but if you make a small change in wwise (say 1db vol change) to an audio object, save and then rebuild the banks, the error might go away. this worked for me, and then i was able to revert my change and rebuild without any issues.

hope this helps the next person searching for a fix in the future.
