WAAPI & Wwise 2017.2.10 : is it possible?

Question

Hello,

Can WAAPI's current version run with Wwise 2017.2.10?
I made sure to enable WAAPI in the user settings with a valid allowed origin but, each time I try a simple WAAPI script (in Python 3.6+) my console freezes.
If I open the same project with Wwise latest version it works.

Thank you,

Julien

Answer 1

yes, it should. 

First make sure you have the following user preferences:

Enable WAAPI: True
Allowed Origins: #unknown,#file
WAMP Port: 8080
HTTP Port: 8090

For instance, this python script should run with the latest waapi python client and Wwise 2017.2.10:

from waapi import WaapiClient
import pprint

# Connect (default URL)
client = WaapiClient()

# Return all targets
args = {
    "from": {"path": ['\\Actor-Mixer Hierarchy']},
    "transform": [
        {"select": ['children']}
    ]
}

options = {
    "return": ['name']
}
result = client.call("ak.wwise.core.object.get", args, options=options)
pprint.pprint(result)

Thank you for your answer.

Yet the script still hangs when it reaches client = WaapiClient().
It works fine with wwise 2018.1.6 and wwise 2019.1.6.

Sadly I have to stick to 2017.2.10 for now.

Can you verify you have the following preferences:

Allowed Origins: #unknown,#file
WAMP Port: 8080
HTTP Port: 8090

My allowed origin was incorrect : I had 127.0.0.1,::1.
It works now.

Thank you very much for your help!
