Cook Error

anonymous_user_747c4015 · October 5, 2015, 7:41am

Hi, I’m new in UE and I made my game and I would like to export it so you can play it without engine. I try to package it, but it says : PackagingResults:Error: Error Unknown Cook Failure

What should I do? Thank you for any help

Hey ,

In order to better assist you, could you please upload the full error as a .txt file? Please also tell us whether or not you downloaded 4.9.2 from the Epic Games Launcher or from Source.

Looking forward to hearing back from you, thanks!

Hey ,

I would look into the following errors/warnings as I believe they’re what’s causing the cook to fail:

Hey Sam,

Thank you very much!!! I fixed it!

Btw. don’t you know how can someone else play without UE?

anonymous_user_a08c0bf2 · October 7, 2015, 3:42pm

Once you package your game, the .exe can be released to your friends and family. Here is some documentation that may be of use to you:

I´ve tried to run my game on computer without UE and it says this :

Program is unable to run, because of missing MSVCR120.dll. You can try to solve the problem by reinstalling the program.

Found some .dll field on my computer and put it to next computer without UE (when my game is now).

And then it says that is missing some 0xc000007b aplication.

What should I do?

Please look over [this thread][1] and see if the advise given actually resolved the missing dll issue you’ve ran in to.

Thank you Sam, but it is possible to run game without instaling visual studio?

anonymous_user_a08c0bf2 · October 13, 2015, 7:29pm

This file is required for running an application build with VS2013. Here is [additional information][1] listed within this thread.
