c# - Deploy Unity3D in Windows Azure

Question

I'm a bit stuck with the windows Azure plateforme. For now, I have a ASP.NET MVC 3 Web role running on Azure. But I want to deploy a Unity3D Web Player Application. How can I perform this task. I think it's quite the same if I want to deploy a flash application on a web page. Instead of a .swf file, I have a .unity3d file. Did somebody performed some kind of thing ?

Thanks a lot !

Yes. You just need to have do two things:

1. Install Unity Web Player components in your Azure VM: To achieve that you just need a Startup task to download and install UnityWebPlayer.exe silently without UI. To learn more about Startup task see here

2. Setup Unity3d Mime Type in IIS:

That should be enough.
