Wwise SDK 2021.1.14

Switch Example

Setting switches is very similar to setting states, except that you do it with the AK::SoundEngine::SetSwitch() function:

AK::SoundEngine::SetSwitch( AK::SWITCHES::GROUND::GROUP, AK::SWITCHES::GROUND::SWITCH::GRAVEL, GAME_OBJECT_ID_HUMAN );

The AK::SoundEngine::SetSwitch() method also accepts strings (Unicode or Ansi) instead of IDs. In this case you would specify the names of the Switch Group and Switch, as defined by the Wwise user:

AK::SoundEngine::SetSwitch( L"Ground", L"Gravel", GAME_OBJECT_ID_HUMAN );

In the sample program you can experiment with switches by clicking on the Start Walking button (to start triggerring Play_FootStep events every half second) and then changing the ground material with the "Ground switch" dropdown list.

Refer to Integration Details - Switches for more details.
