[4.7.6] No devices found for HTML5

Hello everyone.

I’m new to UE4 (less than a week actually), and right now, I’m “just” trying to launch the FPS Template with HTML5.
I followed the tutorial here for the Launcher Version (v4.7.6).

So here is my first question :
I saw a lot of old topic which indicate that I need to use the Git version to make it work. Is it still true ?

If the answer is yes, I guess you can stop reading. If not, here is my problem :

I installed Emscripten, Python2.7, Chromium 64bits and setup the HTML5Engine.ini, but no devices are found :

Did I miss something ? Maybe I missed something simple due to the fact that I never used UE4 before.

Thanks for your time.

Edit : Here is what is displayed in the Device Manager :

Hey ,

After you installed what’s needed for HTML5, did you restart your computer? Also, have you gone into the Device Manager settings, which is in the drop-down for Launch? You should be able to claim your HTML5 device, which would be FireFox, and of course, Chrome.

Looking forward to hearing back from you, thanks! :slight_smile:

Yes i restarted my computer, and I didn’t mention it in my original post but when I open the device manager, there is no HTML5 devices and I can’t add one.
I update my original post with a screenshot of the device manager.
Thanks

Hey ,

Have you tried downloading ? I see that you have Chrome in there, currently Chrome is having issues with HTML5 and will not launch on. However, regular FireFox should show up for you, so should .

Below is my whole HTML5Engine.ini file:

[Audio]
AudioDeviceModuleName=HTML5Audio

[OnlineSubsystemMcp]
benabled=false

[SystemSettings]
r.setres=800x600

; These following settings have moved to the  inis and can be set from the editor
; These old value are left as reference until all old code paths are removed
;[BuildSettings]
;HeapSize=1024

;[HTML5DevicesWindows]
; (64 bit)="C:/Program Files//firefox.exe"
; (32 bit)="C:/Program Files (x86)//firefox.exe"
;Firefox (32 bit)="C:/Program Files (x86)/Mozilla Firefox/firefox.exe"
;Firefox Aurora  (32 bit)="C:/Program Files (x86)/Aurora/firefox.exe"
;Chrome="C:/Program Files (x86)//Chrome/Application/chrome.exe"

;all browsers on mac are 64 bit, 64 bit browsers can allocate more than 512MB of memory to around 1.5 GB. 
;[HTML5DevicesMac]
;Safari="/Applications/Safari.app/Contents/MacOS/Safari"
;Firefox="/Applications/Firefox.app/Contents/MacOS/firefox-bin"
;Firefox (Aurora)="/Applications/FirefoxAurora.app/Contents/MacOS/firefox-bin"

;[HTML5DevicesLinux]
;Firefox="/usr/bin/firefox"

;[HTML5SDKPaths]
;Mac="/path/to/emscripten/sdk"

Let me know if this works for you, once you’ve updated yours. :slight_smile:

Now I feel stupid, the problem was that I had “” instead of “/” because I copy/pasted the path from the file explorer of Windows…
Anyway it’s working now, thanks :slight_smile:
