Hi there,
so i finally finished my project and wanted to package it but this shows up in the output log:

Hi, did you meanwhile find a solution or workaround?

Hey there @imercutio! Welcome to the community! Do you have Visual Studio 2022 installed with the C++ game targeting and .Net frameworks installed?

Similar thread with a different workaround at the bottom for studios that can’t move to VS2022: .uproject does not look like uproject file but no targets have been found!
