Release Notes

The following sections list and describe the Windows specific changes to Wwise between version 2023.1 and version 2023.1.1. For general release notes, please refer to Release Notes 2023.1.1

• Behavior Changes
• Bug Fixes
• Fixes for Community-Reported Bugs

Behavior Changes

• WG-68283 DirectInput support in the Motion plug-in is now deprecated. DirectInput support will be removed in a future major release of Wwise, but support for the new GameInput API from the Microsoft GDK will be provided before that time. As a part of the deprecation, a new platform-initialization setting for Windows has been added: AkPlatformInitSettings::bEnableDirectInputSupport. This is used by the Motion plug-in to govern if DirectInput should be initialized and used as a part of device enumeration. This option is set to false by default, which disables DirectInput. XInput and libScePad functionality is still present and unmodified, in the plug-in.

Bug Fixes

• WG-68497 Fixed: Soundbank generation includes inactive Audio Devices.

Fixes for Community-Reported Bugs

• WG-69122 Fixed: Crash using system spatial audio objects, CAkSinkCoreAudio::SpatialSinkWorkCallback.
• WG-69526 Fixed: Possible crash in CAkMotionDeviceMgr::EnumerateXInputDevices after device removal.
