Hi i have made an interactive unreal scene where i want to be able to send out for client viewing, i have packaged for windows, but believe you still need unreal engine to open it.
Is it possible to package to open and run in a web browser?
Thanks,
Packaged projects do not require an engine to run. That is the point of packaging.

When i opened the packaged project for windows on a computer without unreal engine it comes up with the following error:
‘The following components are required to run this program - Microsoft Visual c ++ Runtime’
i want the person i am sending it to to be able to run it without having to download a software, is this possible?
You need to install the missing libraries, the error message should indicate its name.
Can you take a screenshot?
this is the error message that pops up when the user without unreal engine opens the package exe. file.
It seems you need this
thank you and sorry i am not very good at this at the moment, so would i need to install this on my side and then repackage the project, and when sending out it will hopefully open for them without having the software.
This package must be installed on the computer you want to send it to. This package is required to run.
ah ok, that’s annoying, was hoping they wouldn’t have to download anything.
Thank you for your help.
This libraries may have already been installed with other programs, but this is not necessary. It may be that another libraries will be missing on that computer. It is impossible to say for sure.
When we needed to show a project, we tried to do it on our own equipment so that such problems would not arise at the most inopportune moment.
This is not a problem of the project, but not everyone can (wants) to understand this, but the impression can be spoiled.
Ok thank you very much for your help.
