Hi Martin_Blackbird,

Are you using the binary/Launcher editor, or the source/Github editor? Also, can you attach your logs to the thread? It’s easier to read. Thanks very much!

Solved… just user misuse (as almost every time :smiley: ).

I created a .ico file just renaming a .bmp file (worked for years but UE doesn’t like it) and the engine goes crazy by that.

After that, trying to package the exported 4.6 blueprint project to 4.7 engine get the “You may have to build the UE4 project with your IDE.” error… but, I just exported to 4.6 again and it works… so, now my “Hello World! game” (just a Tron-like Pong) is shipped and online!

Great work, guys… UE4 is awesome! :smiley:
