I have the same issue. The soundbank was generated successfully but the Data Size is listed at 0 and the Free Space is listed at 9,000,000 (lesson 7 says to set the max size to 9 million). I found one issue that prevents the sound bank from being generated, you need to go to User Settings in the SoundBank Manager window / layout and select Override Project SoundBank settings, then select Allow SoundBanks to Exceed Maximum Size. This allows the soundbank to be generated, but it is still listed as Data Size 0 in the SoundBank Manager.

Same here. No data, no feedback, just silence. The only feedback is within the generation log, but that's it. Data size, decoded size, all 0. The Soundbank does generate, tho.

Same issue with the Conversion Settings Original Size and Converted Size, it all stays the same.

Same here! My only suspect is this could be caused by migration issues? Perhaps the project was originally in a Wwise version so old that it doesn't behave correctly once translated into a latest release project? Just guessing :)

I had the same issue, and it was because the platform at the top-left corner of Wwise was set to "Mac" instead of "Windows".

Make sure this is set to the correct platform for you and try generating again!

that's it. thanks a lot. I was getting upset since it was blocking me from finising 101 properly.
