Hey,  
In my game I get at certain points an infinite loop, I have the suspicion it is because of FMOD. This here is when I debug in VS and “break all”. I can reproduce this error pretty consistently. I cannot say wether it is because of my own fault, releasing programmer sounds or so.

I think @Connor_FMOD still has access to the repo. If you have some time I can guide you through. Unfortunately you must bring the game to a certain point in the single player to get this problem everytime 😃

Best regards.

PS.: We found more out, here is the callstack.

Ok we figured it out. For some reason FMOD hang. What I did was releasing the programmer sounds in the callback programmer sound destroyed. I removed that code everywhere in my codebase and now i have no problems at all.

Best regards.
