I am getting "LogWwiseProjectDatabase: Different name while retrieving Wwise Object GUID" for some files.

Question

Hi all,

I get this log for some events from my UE project.

LogWwiseProjectDatabase: Different name while retrieving Wwise Object GUID ###### (event_name1): : Should be event_name2 or event_path2
LogWwiseProjectDatabase: Different Id while retrieving Wwise Object GUID ###### (######): Should be ######.

Might be that I changed the event name from event_name1 to event_name2
But there is only event_name2 in the game and I already got rid of event_name1.

These happen on the same events every time I generate soundbanks.

They still play but I would love to fix them anyway just to have everything nice and tidy.

Please feel free to share if you have experienced this or know how to get rid of them.
By the way, I am on UE 5.3.1 and Wwise 2022.1.8.

Best,
Napatz

Having the same issue, did you figure out a fix?

Answer 1

If you open the Wwise Browser windows in in UE, and navigate to the Events that the messages are regarding, you will probably see a message next to the event saying '.uasset needs an update'. Select the events with that message, and click the 'Reconcile Selected' button next to the generate soundbanks button. If shoud fix up your  ue assets and remove the messages.
