No way to mark PNGs as Content (avoiding xnb). #295

Closed phrohdoh closed 9 years ago

phrohdoh commented 9 years ago

When loading PNG files (to avoid the MGCP for reasons) I am given the exception message:

Could not load Content/Sprites/hero.png asset as a non-content file!

IIRC the Content tag was used to tell XNA to convert png to xnb then copy the resulting file to the output directory for usage by the final assembly.

If I am missing something obvious here please feel free to let me know and close this immediately.

Going to go out on a limb: Is SDL2_image, libpng and zlib in your game's directory? For Linux only SDL2_image/libpng are required, and for OSX SDL2_image is self-contained.

The given (archived -- OS X) libSDL2_image requires a system install of libSDL2_image, so I've done that. I wasn't aware of needing zlib, I'll take a look into that.

Run the debugger through here: https://github.com/flibitijibibo/FNA/blob/master/src/Content/ContentManager.cs#L501

To be frank I'm not sure how one would do that but I have installed zlib via homebrew and have a libz.1.2.8.dylib which I imagine I can include and reference in the FNA.dll.config for OS X's zlib.dll.

Trying this now.

Error is hidden in your loading code:   Could not load Content/Sprites/hero.png asset as a non-content file!   Right way to do it is without file extension. :-)

Ah @Vodacek thank you sir! I did solve that problem but I have yet to get an image on screen (though this is my fault and not FNA's).

Closing this, thanks guys!
