Wwise Console Reference - Operations

Refer to Using the Command Line for more information about Wwise Console.

convert-external-source
External sources conversion. Converts the external sources files for the specified project. Optionally, additional WSOURCES can be specified. External Sources are a special type of source that you can put in a sound object in Wwise. It indicates that the real sound data will be provided at runtime. While external source conversion can be triggered by SoundBank generation, this operation can be used to process sources not contained in the Wwise Project. Refer to Integrating External Sources.

create-new-project
Creates a blank new project. The project must not already exist. If the directory does not exist, it is created.

execute-lua-script
Execute a Lua script. Optionally, specify additional Lua search paths, additional modules, and additional Lua scripts to load prior to the main script. The script can return a value. All arguments will be passed to the Lua script in the "wa_args" global variable.

generate-soundbank
SoundBank generation. SoundBank generation is performed according to the settings stored in the project. User SoundBanks Settings are normally ignored when SoundBank generation is launched from the command line. However, when using the Source Control for generated SoundBanks, the User Project Settings are loaded for the Source Control settings. Also, some of these settings can be overridden from the command line.

migrate
Migrates and saves the project.

move-media-ids-to-single-file
Moves the project's media IDs from its work units (.wwu) to a single file, <project-name>.mediaid. This command forces a save of all the project's work units.

move-media-ids-to-work-units
Moves the project's media IDs from a single xml file <project-name>.mediaid to its work units (.wwu). This command forces a save of all the project's work units.

tab-delimited-import
Imports a tab-delimited file to create and modify different object hierarchies. The project is automatically migrated (if required). It is also automatically saved following the import.

update-media-ids-in-single-file
Loads the project and updates the contents of <project-name>.mediaid, if it exists.

verify
Loads the project and does nothing else. This is useful to see the log for verification purposes without actually migrating and saving.

waapi-server
Starts a command-line Wwise Authoring API server, to which client applications, using the Wwise Authoring API, can connect.
