Hello, I am trying to “expose” FMOD’s inbuilt parameters for educational reasons. I have recently built a very simple game level where distance, direction, elevation and event cone angle are displayed in game letting the student not only “hear” the changes in sound but also “see” the parameters cha…

You can indeed get FMOD’s built-in parameters from a Unity script - the methods you’re looking for are Studio::EventInstance::getParameterByName and Studio::EventInstance::getParameterByID , both of which will return the value of a built-in parameter to the 3rd argument, finalvalue.

Hi @Leah_FMOD , thanks for the reply. I have tried the two methods above, and whilst I can get “a” value from the FMOD Instance, this value is always stuck at the maximum value for a floating point (3.40282347E+38) which is weird because the FMOD event works, and as I approach the cube that holds th…

I simplified the code even more, using some a suggested implementation found here , and now I get 3.40282347E+38 when trying to access parameterValue, and 0 when trying to access finalParameterValue. float parameterValue; float finalParameterValue; public FMODUnity.EventReference eventRe…

The simplified code is missing calls to eventInst.start() and eventInst.release(). Add them, and getParameterByName should output what you’re looking for to finalParameterValue. Built-in parameter values are automatically updated based on the 3D attributes of the associated event instance and the l…
