Have a look at the answer to this question: Why when I build Html5 can Firefox not find the file "MyProject.html"? - Platform & Builds - Epic Developer Community Forums

Do i have to delete github unreal engine and fork again with master version do u think it will work

If you already have the Unreal Engine source forked and cloned to your local PC. Then all you need to do is sync your local copy with the master branch and ensure that its up to date.

anonymous_user_22e91ed31 · May 12, 2014, 5:15am

Theres no issue with deleting your private fork and reforking. Just takes more time thats all. I think I’ve deleted my private fork like 4 times already.

The instructions I posted on this page explain the process for using UnrealFrontend to generate HTML5 builds. The screenshot you’ve posted above is not using the “Advanced” option at the left.

Have you tried building HTML5 via Advanced->New Profile per the instructions?

anonymous_user_22e91ed31 · May 20, 2014, 8:58pm

Hi ,
as per ur instruction i used master branch

bt i don knw how to use ?

i follow the advance settings bt html5 showing deactive

Ben_Donatelli_1 · May 20, 2014, 9:15pm

The topic linked at the beginning of this answer thread has more details, but a brief overview of what you need to do:

Download UE4 source from GitHub
Build source code
Run UnrealFrontend.exe in Engine/Binaries/Win64 folder
Create profile to build project for HTML5 platform (build, cook, package, and deploy)
Run HTML5 build via 64-bit browser (and possibly a local server stack like XAMPP)

This is not a very straightforward process (yet) and will take some practice to get up and running smoothly.

If the HTML5 option is grayed out, then the Emscripten environment has not been set up properly.

Verify that the Windows environment variable EMSCRIPTEN exists and that it points to a valid folder which contains the file emscripten.py.

anonymous_user_22e91ed31 · May 21, 2014, 8:31pm

Hi according ur last instruction i followed the same
I re-download everything which is compatible with the same version
