Hey! So great reading that you updated Project Acoustics!

Unfortunately I receive this message, when I try to add it to my 2022.1.0.8070 version of Wwise in the Wwise Launcher Plug In tab: The specified package is incompatible with the target.).

When I try it with 2021.1.10.7883 the normal install procedure appears. I downloaded the files provided in your post: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=58090 Also tried the download from your website: https://www.microsoft.com/download/details.aspx?id=58090

Could you point me to the right link? Thanks! :)

Hello @dr0p1n, sorry for the inconvenience on this oversight and thanks for reporting the issue. The Download Center package is now updated to add the 2022 Wwise plugin.
