Hello, I am working for a company that is not using any source control in the game development. However, I need to implement the sounds and I am at a distance. The project has already the integration of Unity and FMOD. My idea was to generate the FMOD banks on my PC, upload the banks and put them in a folder in the root folder of the Unity project. In the FMOD settings in the project it is indicated to use single-platform with the correct directory. However when I run the game the following errors occur: - [FMOD] RuntimeBankModel::openFile : Failed to open file ‘BanksFmod/Desktop/Desktop/Master.strings.bank’ UnityEngine.Debug:LogError (object) FMODUnity.RuntimeManager:DEBUG\_CALLBACK (FMOD.DEBUG\_FLAGS,intptr,int,intptr,intptr) (at Assets/Plugins/FMOD/src/Runtime/RuntimeManager.cs:39) - BankLoadException: [FMOD] Could not load bank ‘BanksFmod/Desktop/Desktop/Master.strings.bank’ : ERR\_FILE\_NOTFOUND : File not found.

What version of FMOD are you using? I am seeing a double “Desktop” in that path, can you please share your Build Path in the FMOD Unity settings as it appears in your project? ---

Thank you for the additional information. The errors you are seeing are what I would expect to see with a _Source Type_ set to “Multiple Platform Build”. I think I am going to need a reproduction- would it be possible for you to upload a stripped down unity project to your [Profile](https://fmod.com/profile#uploads)? You can remove all your scenes and other assets, I just want to take a look at the banks and see if I can get them loading in your project. ---
