In the Obstruction/Occlusion tab of the Wwise Project Settings dialog box, you can define the obstruction and occlusion settings for the sound objects for each platform in your project. Obstruction occurs when an object in the game geometry, such as a wall or pillar, partially blocks the space between a sound source and a listener. Occlusion occurs when an object in the game geometry completely blocks the space between a sound source and its listener.
Game developers programmatically define the geometry of the game where the conditions for obstruction and occlusion may occur. Wwise does not compute obstruction and occlusion levels by itself. The physics calculations must be done by the game and the results must be passed to the following function: SetObjectObstructionAndOcclusion() .
For more information about how developers program obstruction and occlusion, refer to the Obstruction and Occlusion in Environments section in the Wwise SDK documentation.
Wwise allows you to define platform-specific volume and LPF curves that will be applied to sound objects as they are influenced by obstruction and occlusion during gameplay. The values you define are relative, and are added to any volume and LPF values already applied to the game object.

To create more detailed and complex obstruction and occlusion curves, you can define the shape of each curve segment. A curve segment is any part of the curve between two control points. You can choose from a variety of curve shapes, including linear, constant, logarithmic, exponential, and s-curve.
For more background information on obstruction and occlusion, refer to The Learning Annex - More on Obstruction and Occlusion.
To define the obstruction and occlusion settings for your project:
-
Open the Project Settings dialog box by doing one of the following:
From the menu bar, click Project > Project Settings.
Press Shift+K.
-
Switch to the Obstruction/Occlusion tab.
-
From the Platform list, select the platform for which you are defining curves for the obstruction and occlusions settings.
-
To specify different settings for obstruction and/or occlusion volume, LPF and HPF on the selected platform, right-click the link indicator and in the shortcut menu, select Unlink.
The indicator will turn orange and the settings that you define for the unlinked properties will be used only on the selected platform.
-
To define volume, LPF and HPF curves for the obstruction and occlusion settings for your game objects, do the following:
Enable the Use check box to highlight the corresponding curve.
To create points on the curve, double-click a point on the curve.
To delete a point on the curve, select the point and press Delete.
-
To delete all the points you have defined so far and start over, click Reset.

Note For information on zooming and panning the Graph View, adding, moving, and deleting control points, changing the shape of the curve between points, using linear and dB scaling, and other general information about the Graph View, refer to Chapter 43, Getting to Know the Graph View.
-
To annotate the curves, click in the Notes box and type your note.
-
When you are finished, click OK.
The Project Settings dialog box closes and your project obstruction/occlusion property curves are saved.
Note Wwise applies any changes made to your Project Settings only after you click OK. Live editing is not possible.
