Hazel 2023.1 - HUGE New Release! π
🕑 Added 2023-03-07 04:54:34 +0000 UTCHey everyone! Just thought I'd write a post to announce the Hazel 2023.1 has been released! Let's talk a little about what that means exactly, and what's new.
Basically we've decided to do quarterly "releases" where we merge a QA tested version of the latest features from the dev branch into the master branch. This ensures that the master branch remains stable and useable while the team works on new features in the dev branch. The master branch will be renamed to "release" in the future.
As always, you can continue accessing the dev branch if you would like to see what the team is working on and want to be on the bleeding edge of Hazel - at the price of less stability of course.
As always, this wouldn't be possible without your support, so thank you so much! β€οΈ
Release notes will always be published to docs.hazelengine.com if you would like to view the complete list (we've fixed over 150 bugs!), but otherwise here is a glimpse (highly recommend you click here to view the complete list of changes!):

When I start the project in console show this, HAZEL: Could not load SoundBank OnprojectLoaded! when hit play button then break on HZ_CORE_ASSERT(m_ActiveSounds.size() == m_VoiceHandles.size()); m_ActiveSound.size() is 0, m_VoiceHandles.size() is 1 I donβt know how to fix it

Hey~ here is my solution: open this file: \Hazelnut\SandboxProject\premake5.lua edit the HazelRootDirectory to absolute path to you hazel folder ex: HazelRootDirectory = "K:/CppProjects/Hazel" rerun setup.bat
