Assuming you are on an Intel Mac, Fusion is broken for its documented mechanisms for installing macOS. Neither using the recovery partition or drag/drop the Install macOS Ventura.app file on the  Create a new virtual machine dialog work. Apple changed the layout of the files in both of these in Monterey and VMware hasn’t caught up to the changes. 

An installable ISO file of macOS  can be created by:

• Downloading the full installer (Install macOS Ventura.app) from the App Store using the info from https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT211683, or use the command  

• softwareupdate --fetch-full-installer --full-installer-version 13.3

• Use the script from https://github.com/rtrouton/create_macos_vm_install_dmg to build an ISO from the Apple installer. (Choose the option that builds both a .dmg and .iso file)
• build a custom macOS VM and point the virtual CD/CVD drive to use the your newly created ISO
