Tuesday, July 16th at 12pm ET / 9am PT
Wwise 2024.1 improves on Wwise workflows that are fundamental to the creation of believable, impressive audio experiences. The real-time connection between Wwise and the game engine has been improved: live media transfer and expanded live editing capabilities provide an uninterrupted workflow. In addition, default object editors and properties are more visible and focus clearly on the aspects of sound, music, and dialog that determine their behavior.
