HioSoundPlayer (HostIO-compatible SoundPlayer)

SoundPlayer can be run via HostIO.
This makes it easier to confirm sounds on the actual hardware (PARTNER-CTR Debugger) after making changes to sound data, because you only need to reload the sound archive, rather than needing to totally re-create SoundPlayer from Preview →Create SoundPlayer.

HioSoundPlayer Operating Procedures

You must load the HioSoundPlayer.cci file included in the NintendoWare package immediately after launching the PARTNER-CTR Debugger.

1. Load and run %NW4C_ROOT%\tools\SoundPlayer\HioSoundPlayer.cci on the PARTNER-CTR Debugger.
2. Use SoundMaker to convert the sound project.
3. Press the START button on the PARTNER-CTR Debugger and load the converted sound archive.

The results of subsequent edits and changes made using SoundMaker can be verified immediately on the PARTNER-CTR Debugger by repeating Steps 2 and 3.

Note: When converting using SoundMaker, a temporary folder named _tmpForSoundPlayer is created inside the SoundMaker folder.

Notes

• Be sure to start this tool while PARTNER-CTR HIO-Daemon is not running.
• HIO-Daemon, the PARTNER-CTR Debugger and SoundMaker must be restarted if the environment variable NW4C_ROOT has been set or has been changed.
  (This includes cases in which NW4C setup.wsf has been executed.）
