"Find Event by Name" node in UE 4.26.2 does not work unless "Play Event 2D" with event is included

This is potentially linked to a known issue that should be fixed soon. Can you please try the temporary fix mentioned and add the following directories in Project Settings>Packaging>Additional Asset Directories to Cook:

  • FMOD/Banks
  • FMOD/Buses
  • FMOD/Events
  • FMOD/Reverbs
  • FMOD/Snapshots
  • FMOD/VCAs

And let me know if Find Event by Name is still failing without the extra node?
