Content

Hi guys
Sorry in advance for my bad english level.

This week I had a big pb.I had a link to the file, and delete it …
I make backup all the week but, my serialize method doesnt exist now.

I remember my try hard for a successful.

Serialize method

using (XmlWriter writer = XmlWriter.Create(fileName))
            {
                    IntermediateSerializer.Serialize(writer, level.renderer._lightListEmitter, null);
            }

My XML file

I have create a library, add my dll into my project reference.
I use [ContentSerializerIgnore].
I load like that

string filename = string.Format("C:/NSOMSettings/Light/light{0}", levelIndex); //Light C:/NSOMSettings/
            if (System.IO.File.Exists(filename))
            {
                    renderer._lightListEmitter = game.Content.Load<List<LightEmitter>>(filename);
            }

But now no light0.xnb was created :frowning:

Before my mistake it works perfectly :confused:

If you want more information, let me known.

Thank you in advance

Really sorry for my language, I write as I speak french.

Its ok, in the content.mgcb I need to reference my dll.

Now I serialize like that

XmlWriterSettings settings = new XmlWriterSettings();

            settings.Indent = true;
            XmlDocument doc = new XmlDocument();

            using (XmlWriter writer = XmlWriter.Create(fileName, settings))
            {
                IntermediateSerializer.Serialize(writer, level.renderer._lightListEmitter, fileName);

                doc.Save(writer);
            }

else the schema is wrong when i open my file with VS. I don’t no why :confused:

thx

Howdy,

I haven’t started with the framework yet but have run into problems with windows file permissions when creating files! Make sure you can access the directory. I know the general System.IO struggles when you need to create a directory within a directory. Might seem like a low tech guess but that’s where i’d start!

Good luck!
