Its works. So thats OK. But better Look to the readme also. The Prerequisites chapter has some info.

[aismann]

Can you close it?

Do i have to run setup.py

Of course it is required. It's a documented part of the setup of the game engine on your system, and it's purpose is not only to download Nuget. You can look through the setup.py code yourself and see what it actually does.

If the documented instructions are followed, then we wouldn't end up with issues like this logged on github against the engine.
