Managing Messages that Appear in the Logs

There may be situations where you no longer want or need specific warnings and/or messages to be displayed in the SoundBank or Conversion logs during the generation process. To prevent these types of warnings and messages from appearing in the SoundBank and Conversion logs, you can add them to the Log Ignore list. When you want to include these messages back in the log, you can simply remove the message types from the Log Ignore List. This list of messages is managed at the project level in the Project Settings dialog box.

	Note
	You can also add messages to the Log Ignore List by right-clicking a message directly in the log and selecting Add Message(s) to Ignore List. For more information, refer to Adding Messages to the Log Ignore List.

To add messages to the Log Ignore List:

From the menu bar, click Project > Project Settings.

The Project Settings dialog box opens.
Switch to the Logs tab.
Select the messages that you want to add to the Log Ignore List.
Click OK to close the Project Settings dialog box.

The next time a log is generated, the selected message types will be ignored by Wwise and will not be displayed in the log.

Note

To remove a message type from the Log Ignore List, simply remove the Ignore check mark for the corresponding message type.

To change the severity of a message:

From the menu bar, click Project > Project Settings.

The Project Settings dialog box opens.
Switch to the Logs tab.
Change the severity by using the drop down control on the Severity column.
Click OK to close the Project Settings dialog box.

The next time a log is generated, the selected severity will be applied.

To limit the number of messages that will appear in the logs:

From the menu bar, click Project > Project Settings.

The Project Settings dialog box opens.
Switch to the Logs tab.
Enable the Limit number of messages displayed to: option and type the maximum number of messages you want displayed in the log. Note that this number is used to limit all message types in the log.
Click OK to close the Project Settings dialog box.

	Note
	Manage messages that appear in the General, Project Load, and WAAPI logs through the Logs Settings dialog, which is opened by clicking the settings icon within the Logs view.
