Loading assets in Monogame
- by Matebu
I'm creating a MonoGame application on Visual Studio 2012, yet when trying to load a texture I get the following problem:
Could not load Menu/btnPlay asset!
I have set content directory: Content.RootDirectory = "Assets";
Also the file btnPlay.png has properties set:
Build Action: Content and Copy to Output directory: Copy if newer.
My constructor and LoadContent functions are totally empty, but have a look yourself:
public WizardGame()
{
Window.Title = "Just another Wizard game";
_graphics = new GraphicsDeviceManager(this);
Content.RootDirectory = "Assets";
}
protected override void LoadContent()
{
// Create a new SpriteBatch, which can be used to draw textures.
_spriteBatch = new SpriteBatch(GraphicsDevice);
Texture2D texture = Content.Load<Texture2D>("Menu/btnPlay");
_graphics.IsFullScreen = true;
_graphics.ApplyChanges();
}
How do I properly load a texture?
