Greetings Capsuleers!

It has come to our attention that a recent update to Sonic Studio 3 has been causing industry wide crashes with games that use the audio engine Wwise. Because EVE Online leverages Wwise we have also noticed a trend of EVE Online clients crashing at start up which began around July 7th, 2021. After investigating we have determined that these crashes are due to a missing AudioDevProps2.dll that the newest version of Sonic Studio 3 uses.

If you have experienced problems starting the EVE Online client, use Sonic Studio 3 and have recently had an update to it applied on July 7th, 2021 or later then we recommend uninstalling Sonic Studio 3 until this issue has been resolved.

@Roime the release that went out today has an updated D-scan sound that is largely the same without so much sub-bass . Thanks again for the input!

Thanks for this very detailed suggestion! I have passed this along to our sound designers to take into consideration

Hi! I’m the audio programmer on EVE. The removal of music in stations was an intentional choice when we updated the hangar atmosphere last month. However, if you still want music to be playing while in stations you can enable the “Override dynamic music with Classic EVE music” option in the audio settings
