In some cases, you may want to manually add specific files to a package, for example, when creating new game content that will be available post-release. When files are manually added to a package, all automatic file assignments are overridden.
When you add a SoundBank to a package manually, you have the choice to include only the SoundBank, the streamed files associated with the SoundBank, or both. At any time, you can switch to the Resulting Contents tab of the Package Contents view to review the actual contents of a package.
To add files to a package manually:
Select a package in the Packages view.
The contents of the package are displayed in the Package Contents view.
Drag one or more files from the Files to package view to the Added Items tab of the Package Contents view.
The number of files manually added to the package will appear in brackets on the Added Items tab title bar.
Also notice that the Resulting contents tab has a number displayed in the title bar. This number represents the total number of files included in the package. The two numbers may differ, for example, when a single SoundBank is added to the package that includes references to several streamed media files.
When you add a SoundBank to a package, you get to choose what type of files are actually added to the package by selecting one of the following options from the Inclusion mode list:
All files - Includes the SoundBank file and any associated streamed media files.
SoundBank only - Includes only the SoundBank file.
Streamed files - Includes only the associated streamed media files and not the actual SoundBank file that was added.
Switch to the Resulting contents tab to review the actual contents of your package.
