Version
Since one Wwise project contains all the sound, music, motion assets, properties, and SoundBanks for your game audio and motion, it is very important to manage projects carefully.
After the project is created, you can use your computer's file system to manage the project
and its project files. You can also open a project directly from its .wproj
file in the
project folder.
After you have opened a project in Wwise, you can manage it or create projects from the Project menu.
The Project Launcher dialog opens when you start Wwise or when you close a project. With the Project Launcher you can:
Browse the list of Recent Projects and open one by double-clicking it or by clicking Open Selection. To filter the list, click the search icon in the upper-right corner (Ctrl+F3).
Click Open Other to search for a project
file (.wproj
) on your computer.
Click New to create a new project.
New projects are created with the New Project dialog. You can access the New Project dialog from:
The Project Launcher: click New.
The menu bar: click Project > New (Ctrl+N).
The Wwise page of the Audiokinetic Launcher: see Wwise in the Launcher documentation.
In the New Project dialog, enter a Name. For other settings, see the following table for a complete reference to the New Project dialog.
Click OK.

You can open projects from the Wwise menu bar by clicking Project > Open (Ctrl+O) or from the Audiokinetic Launcher.
Before a project is opened, it is validated by Wwise. If there are XML syntax errors, the project does not load. If there are project inconsistencies, the Project Load Log dialog opens. See Resolving project inconsistencies.
To use the Project Load Log dialog:
In the Project Load Log dialog, review the errors and how they were fixed. To filter the list, click the search icon in the upper-right corner (Ctrl+F3).
Click Accept to accept the suggested fixes and load the project.
Save the project. Fixes that were made are saved only when you save the project.
If your project is slow to load, you can unload certain Work Units, keeping only those that you are working on. See Loading/unloading Work Units from your project.
After the project is loaded, you can consult all the Project Load Log entries in the Project Load Tab of the Logs view.
To close a project
From the menu bar, click Project > Close. The project is closed and the Project Launcher opens. If you have deleted objects in your project, the associated audio files are not deleted when you close the project. To delete them, clear your cache. See Clearing your cache.
To save a project, from the menu bar, click Project > Save (Ctrl+S).
If the project contains unsaved content, there will be an asterisk beside its name in the Wwise title bar. In the Project Explorer, there will also be an asterisk beside any Work Units that contain unsaved content.
If a Work Unit is read-only on your file system, you can modify it in Wwise, but you can't save it with the Project > Save command. This command saves the rest of the project, but any read-only objects retain their asterisks denoting unsaved content. Before you begin working on a Work Unit, verify that you can save any changes that you might make. When using a source control system to manage your project files, keep in mind that you will need to check out your project files in order to save them. For more information on saving project files that are managed by a source control system, see Saving your project when using Perforce.
