Windows 8.1 Store app, how to make serialization and deserialization?

[DarkLir]

Hello!

Please help me. How to make save and load data from local disk in Windows 8.1 Store app?

This way dosn’t work:
Using System.Runtime.Serialization.Formatters.Binary;
Error: The type or namespace name ‘Formatters’ does not exist in the namespace ‘System.Runtime.Serialization’ (are you missing an assembly reference?)

Checkout this example - https://code.msdn.microsoft.com/windowsapps/Serializers-for-Windows-8-f82e2d88 , but because it uses WinRT API, you’ll have to make a plugin to make this work.

But maybe you don’t even need this, maybe simple load/save to file is enough for you, could you explain what are you trying to achieve?

Yes, I think simple load/save to file is enough for me, how realize this for Windows Store app?
I have 10 levels. I’m trying realize loading scene(level) from the main screen using previous level(score, life) saved data.

Well, the easiest way would be simply to use Unity - Scripting API: PlayerPrefs.

Or you can use - Unity - Scripting API: File

Well, the easiest way would be simply to use http://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/PlayerPrefs.html.

Or you can use - http://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/Windows.File.html

Thank you. I’ll try this.
