Missing VuforiaEngine.dll #68

Closed dylan-infinitus closed 1 year ago

dylan-infinitus commented 1 year ago

Summarize the bug: I have successfully built a Unity Vuforia app for Android, everything works as expected. Now, I am looking to build a Windows standalone version of the same app. My Windows standalone build cannot find the VuforiaEngine.dll. The location where it is looking for the file doesn't exist i.e. MyApp_Data/MonoBleedingEdge/VuforiaEngine.dll.

Observed problem When I build and run the Windows app, I am presented with an error about a missing VuforiaEngine.dll. I have upgraded my Vuforia version to the latest release (10.18) via the Unity Asset Store and also upgraded my Unity version to their latest release (2022.3.11f1). I also played with many settings, although I am still unable to run my Windows standalone build with Vuforia initialised.

Expected result I expected the Windows standalone version to run similar to the Android version, using a connected webcam instead of the mobile device camera.

Other observations I noticed in the Unity project package for Vuforia Engine AR, the plugins folder has sub-folders for Windows/x64. Inside here is a few plugins, most notably VuforiaEngine.dll (which my standalone build is struggling to locate). When inspecting this VuforiaEngine.dll plugin, I can see the support platforms does not include standalone builds (it only includes Editor). I am unable to edit this plugin directly.

Reproducible steps Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Download Vuforia Engine from Unity Asset Store
  2. Configure Vuforia Engine in your project
  3. Build a Windows standalone development build
  4. Run the build
  5. See the error in the on-screen console log

Affected Vuforia Engine version: v10.18.

Hi there, please note that we do not support standalone Windows builds. We do however support UWP. I will close this bug as it is related to building to an unsupported platform.
