wwise authoring crashes on start

Question

(wetransfer removed because it contains a license)

here's a wetransfer with the ziped project without the audio files

 

the project works when i'm removing the interactive music hierarchy and event unit

 

But i cannot revert my changes to a previous version of the Wwise project, because last time i commited was 4 days ago, and i did a shit ton of modifications between, wich were not pushed on the dedicated Wwise GIT (fml). My project deadline is in 9 days. Can u help me out ? Also, there's nothing in the crash logs or what seems to be that, it's empty (no code / text).

Answer 1

• Open \Interactive Music Hierarchy\Default Work Unit in a text editor
• Search for the two music cues below, and remove them from the XML. Be careful of removing exactly the code below, nothing more, nothing less.
• Save
• Try opening the project

Problem: There was a circular reference between the Music Event Cue and the Event. Both were pointing to each other, creating a Stack overflow.
