Hello,
I´ve been trying to get my game to work under Windows Store Apps, but I just cant get past this error:
The code is there, I dont usually do all that just to instantiate a prefab, the line was just Instantiate((GameObject)Resources.Load(“DataStore”, typeof(GameObject)); but I´ve been trying to do it differently, cause I have no idea what to do.
Can anyone please help me?
Thanks in advance,
Best regards,
Allan
PS: The error is in the first Resources.Load call… I dont know exactly which error though =(
What exactly is DataStore?
Its a class with a ton of info I use in the game. Lists, Dictionaries, Arrays, custom classes… but it barely has any methods, its basically just an organized repository of information for quick access in runtime. It is a MonoBehaviour.
Does it use ArrayLists or Hashtables? Chances are one of the collection types of classes in it isn’t supported in Windows Store Apps.
And why are you instantiating code as a GameObject? That makes no sense.
This is what DataStore looks like, basically:
The same script also has some classes declarations, they are all similar or more simple than the one Im showing below.
This does work on every other platform I’ve tried so far… Mac, ios, android, blackberry, pc, web… =/
Its a prefab. I make a ton of configurations on this prefab, I use it as a local database… that is why I instantiate code as GameObject. If there is a better way to do this I would gladly do it in another way… but its the only way I know unfortunately.
Looks like a bug, can you report it ?
Sure. But is there anything I could at least try to get it working? unfortunately this DataStore is crucial to my project (everything depends on it), but if there was something different I could try… I dont know… I really wanted to be able to send it over for the contest =(
Enable exceptions in Debug->Exceptions, and continue until you hit this exception, then add “this” word to watch, this way you’ll be able to determine where the serialization error occurs.
Alright, I will try it. Will update when I have news. Thank you
