  • The FMOD Studio project’s built bank files if it is decided not to include them. The banks can be built locally after acquiring a local project.
  • The FMOD Studio project’s assets if it is decided not to include them. The assets must be present in a location known to the FMOD Studio project in order to be used, such as a separate folder…
