## EventNotFoundException: [FMOD] Event not found: {026abc07-54ad-4a88-9c93-20d37d229bcf} (event:/SFX/Cars/Engine/EngineTotal) FMODUnity.RuntimeManager.GetEventDescription (FMODUnity.EventReference eventReference) (at Assets/Plugins/FMOD/src/RuntimeManager.cs:1198)

Also getting:  
[FMOD] ObjectLookup::get : Lookup failed for EventModel

* * *

All the folders are set to default in FMOD, and Unity is looking in the Desktop folder.  
We are building assets and metadata to seperate banks.

I deleted all the built banks then rebuilt, but that didn’t fix it.

I’m wondering if possibly the issues started when I recently moved to 2.02.08, while unity was using was 2.02.07. I uninstalled 08, and went back to 07, but this issue is still happening. Is there possibly some residual 08 stuff affecting this?

Really hoping someone can help me with this

I haven’t been able to reproduce this problem. What version of Unity are you using?

hey jeff sorry for the 2-year late reply. I never saw it until now.

I actually don’t remember the version I was using, but currently we are on 2022.3.18.f1, and our last version was very close
