The following sections list and describe the changes to Wwise between version 2022.1.7 and version 2022.1.8.
Platform-specific information can be found here:
For earlier versions, please refer to Previous Release Notes.
New Features
- WG-58168 Default source control ignore files for Perforce (
.p4ignore) and Git (.gitignore) are now included in Wwise projects.
Performance Changes
- WG-66994 The Source Control status icons of Work Units are now fetched asynchronously, which speeds up project loading and some source control operations. The Refresh Icons command is also faster.
- WG-67188 Adjusted the settings of the 3D Audio Bed Mixer Effect plug-in so that the System-Eligible Audio Object Limit now has a default value of 64 and a maximum value of 512. This significantly reduces the memory allocated by the Effect when it is instantiated.
Bug Fixes
- WG-58703 Fixed: No error is logged when Source Control settings cannot be saved.
- WG-60363 Fixed: (Mac Authoring) Cannot import audio files if the path includes Unicode characters.
- WG-66153 Fixed: Automatic marker generation with Detect from Transients occasionally fails due to out-of-bounds calculations.
- WG-67156 Fixed: Modulator update values might be incorrect when applied in a MIDI context on properties other than Voice Volume.
- WG-67216 Fixed: The 3D Audio Bed Mixer Effect plug-in continues to output a Main Mix and Passthrough Mix even when it doesn't receive any Audio Objects.
- WG-67230 Fixed: Wwise Console doesn't handle Ctrl+C correctly after the Perforce Source Control plug-in is loaded.
- WG-67267 Fixed: XMLErrorTranslator's s_reader isn't always initialized.
