    Hello,

    I was wondering, is it possible to share standalone builds of games made by Unity 4.6 to people using different machines?

    I ask this because when I built a webplayer build I got a message stating that the webplayer build will only work with the machine that the build was built on. Is this also true for standalone builds?

    Thank you very much.

    No this is only for web as currently the 4.6 web player does not get installed on other computers. You should be fine sharing you game with standalone

    Actually I believe we updated the web player channel with 4.6, so you should be able to ship web content to other people. I think the 'warning' is just there because of a flag we have in the build infrastructure for when we build beta's. The easiest thing to do it test the web version on a computer that has not had unity editor installed on it before :)
