For earlier versions, please refer to Previous Release Notes.
Behavior Changes
- WG-56439 Spatial Audio: The emitter position and virtual position is now updated smoothly in between path updates. This reduces 'stepping' artifacts that can be heard when using larger distance thresholds.
Performance Changes
- WG-58649 Adjusted AkArray::Copy to avoid destroying the underlying memory if not necessary, slightly reducing the number of memory allocations and frees in the sound engine.
