Assets/Resources not being found?

Build & Deployment
1

Hi,

I placed a configuration file in Assets/Resources.
Then I try to read it using the following path:

string path=Application.dataPath+“/Resources/Stats.yaml”;
StreamReader reader = File.OpenText(filename);

I can’t seem to find the file once I build the players though. What am I doing wrong?

I thought the Assets/Resources directory was packaged with the game?

unless its recognized as text asset it won’t be included in the build actually.

You can just include a text file in the Unity project (it must have a .txt suffix, though) and access it using the TextAsset class. The text of the file is accessed as a string; there is a constructor for StreamReader that accepts a string as the “stream”, so there should be no problem if your YAML processor needs a StreamReader for input.

Ah… I misunderstood what the Resources directory meant.

Thanks andeeee, dreamora!
