Play 3D sound from FMOD studio bank

FMOD builds all sound/event into a bank. Then we use code to load event to play sound from built bank

// Declaration
FMOD.Studio.System            *fModStudioSystem;
FMOD.Studio.Bank              *fModBank;
FMOD.Studio.EventDescription  *fModEventDescription;
FMOD.Studio.EventInstance     *fModEventInstance;

void *extraDriverData = 0;

// Init stuff
bool Init()
{
	// Basic setup
	FMOD.Studio.System.create(&fModStudioSystem);
	fModStudioSystem.initialize(1024, FMOD_STUDIO_INIT_NORMAL, FMOD_INIT_NORMAL, extraDriverData);
   
	// Load FMOD bank and get event
	const char8 *bankPath = "Sounds/bank.bank"; 
	fModStudioSystem.loadBankFile(bankPath, FMOD_STUDIO_LOAD_BANK_NORMAL, &fModBank);
	fModStudioSystem.getEvent("event:/evenname", &fModEventDescription);
	
	// Create eventInstance from eventDescription
	fModEventDescription.createInstance(&fModEventInstance);
	fModEventInstance.setParameterByName("paramName", someValue); //Set parameter of event if need
	fModEventInstance.start(); //Start play sound event
	
	// Reposition listener and eventInstance using attributes
	FMOD_3D_ATTRIBUTES attr = {{0}};
	
	// Listener first   
	attr.forward.z = 1.0f;
	attr.up.y = 1.0f;
	fModStudioSystem.setListenerAttributes(0, &attr);
	
	// Then evenInstance
	attr.position.x = 2;
	attr.position.y = 0;
	attr.position.z = 1;
	fModEventInstance.set3DAttributes(&attr);	
	
	return true;
}

// Update process
bool Update()
{
	// Update FMOD
    fModStudioSystem.update();
	return true;
}
