Additional information I would like to add, but I ran out of space… the issue might be due to the fact that I am running the wrong version of FMOD. In the “Material” section under the “Onboarding” tab it explains that I need to download FMOD Version 2.03.10, however in the next section under that one, in “Troubleshooting” it states, “Check also that you are using the most up-to-date version of FMOD Studio. You can check this by going to the (Help > Welcome) window.” So I decided to download the most up-to-date version of FMOD to run the project, that being 2.03.14. I guess my question is does this project have to run specifically on version 2.03.10? Perhaps that might solve my issue??
Update: Issue has been solved! I just had to go into my settings on my mac under “Privacy and Security” and select “Anywhere” in “Allow applications from”. In order to bring up this option however I had to go into my Terminal Application and handle it there! The problem stemmed from my mac! Apologies for reaching out, and if anyone else runs into this issue while working on the certification I hope this helps in some way if you face this obstacle!!
