Changes the way SoundBanks are displayed in the SoundBank Manager. You can choose either of the following options:

Opens the New SoundBank dialog box where you can name the new SoundBank that you want to create and specify which work unit to place it in.

Opens the SoundBank User Settings dialog box where you create custom user settings by overriding those defined at the project level.

The project SoundBank settings are defined in the Project Settings dialog box.

Prompts the Generating SoundBanks dialog and generates the selected SoundBanks and corresponding files for the selected platforms and languages, all according to the settings specified. As of Wwise 2015.1, SoundBanks that are up to date - no changes since the last time they were generated - are not regenerated.

Displays the SoundBank Generation Log, which contains information about issues or potential issues that were found during the generation process.

SoundBanks

The name of the SoundBank.

When displaying SoundBanks in tree mode, this column displays the hierarchy of Work Units, Folders and SoundBanks. When selecting the check box for a Work Unit or Folder, all children are also selected. When deselecting it, all children are also deselected.

The name will appear in red if the current value of the SoundBank exceeds the maximum allowed.

Only the SoundBanks whose check boxes are selected will be generated.

Data Size

The amount of in-game memory that the SoundBank currently uses for the selected language.

The data size will appear in red if the current size exceeds the maximum. The displayed size is the value as of the last generation of the SoundBank; it does not update until the SoundBank is regenerated.

Units: Bytes

Max Size

The maximum amount of in-game memory that you want to allocate for a particular SoundBank.

This value can be unlinked so that the maximum size can be different for each platform.

Units: Bytes

You can successfully generate a SoundBank even though it exceeds the maximum memory that you allocated.

A value of 0 means there is no limit on the size of this SoundBank. In this case the control displays "Infinite" instead of "0".

Free Space

The amount of space remaining in the SoundBank. Free space is calculated by subtracting the Data Size from the Max Size. If the Data Size exceeds the Max Size, the Free Space value will be displayed in red.

Units: Bytes

Type

Displays the type of objects that are included in the corresponding SoundBank, for example, SFX, Voice, Music, and Motion. If the SoundBank contains all four types of objects, the word “All” is displayed in this column.

The text in this column will appear in red if the SoundBank contains Voice content with any other type. This simply warns you that data will be unnecessarily duplicated for each language generated.

Date Updated

The date and time the SoundBank was last updated.

Selects all SoundBanks in the list.

Clears the check boxes for all SoundBanks in the list.

Platforms

A list of platforms that are available and active in the current project.

Soundbanks will be generated for the platforms whose check boxes are selected.

Only platforms licensed for the current project will be available in the list. For more information about getting licenses for all platforms, refer to the Troubleshooting section of the Wwise Installation and Migration guide.
