Following Cube Tutorial, No Sound After Generating Soundbank

0 votes
I've been following the tutorial, and when they told me to delete the contents of the soundbanks folder found here:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Audiokinetic\Wwise 2016.2.4.6098\Cube\cube\soundbanks

I instead copied it to a folder on my desktop just in case.

I ran through the tutorial successfully all the way to generating the new soundbank. I directed Wwise to generate the soundbank within the same folder I removed the previous data from. It created a folder called Windows, and generated the soundbank data within it.

However, when I run Cube it is still silent.

I was able to replace my generated soundbank with the data saved to my desktop and get sound back into Cube, but my soundbank left the game silent.

Any ideas?

I faced the same issue, and later realized that it was because I deleted the folder "Windows" under C:\Program Files (x86)\Audiokinetic\Wwise 2022.1.3.8179\Cube\cube\soundbanks.

Delete only the contents inside the Windows folder, and ensure the folder C:\Program Files (x86)\Audiokinetic\Wwise 2022.1.3.8179\Cube\cube\soundbanks\Windows remains.

Doing this helped me fix the missing ice gem blast sound when I generated a new soundbank in Lesson 1.
