Voice and Language Example

As explained in File Location Resolving, language-specific files (SoundBanks and streamed audio files) are managed by the Low-Level I/O system. The default Low-Level I/O system, CAkDefaultLowLevelIO, supports this if you set the language-specific subdirectory name with a call to AK::StreamMgr::SetCurrentLanguage().

The following code changes the current language by:

1. Unloading currently loaded language-specific SoundBanks
2. Changing the language-specific path with a call to AK::StreamMgr::SetCurrentLanguage()
3. Reloading language-specific SoundBanks

You can experiment with this with the "Current language" dropdown list in the sample program.

Refer to Default Low-Level I/O Implementation for more information on the default Low-Level I/O module, and File Location Resolving for more details on file localization.

Refer to Identifying Banks for more information on SoundBank identification.

Note: This sample code comes from the Sound Engine Integration Sample Project available in the Samples section. Refer to Integration Demo Sample for more information.
