UE4.7 Crashes after building Banks in FMOD Studio

I’m running through the FMOD Tutorial for Unreal4 (using UE4.7.2) but when I build the Master Bank, the Unreal Editor crashes. If I tried to re-open the project, Unreal crashes at about 70%. If I delete the bank files, I am able to open the project again, but rebuilding the banks will cause Unreal to crash.

Unfortunately there was a last minute change to FMOD Studio in 1.5.13 that causes problems with the UE4 integration. We’re going to roll out a fix for the integration next week. As a workaround, you can export banks from FMOD Studio 1.5.12 which should work fine.

This should now be fixed in the latest release.

Thanks for the answer Geoff! I also encountered this, even though loading the completed example project worked just fine. I went back and installed 1.5.12 and can confirm it did indeed work both for a completely new test project, and also on the FMOD “start” project, where 1.5.13 had failed.

Wonderful. I was having the same issue, I’ll try rolling back to 1.5.12
