C# Game Help...

Hello, I'm using a tutorial from:



http://creators.xna.com/en-us/education/gettingstarted/bg3d/chapter4



When I'm supposed to build I get an error, stating:



Error 1

You might see, but the problem is the file: enemy.tga. Unfortunately, I have NO clue what's going on.



Any help would be GREATLY appreciated. Thanks.

The source code is from the first video collect, chapter 1. Download it to get the enemy.tga file plus other files.

 

TGA is an image format.

Did you add enemy.tga to the XNA content pipeline?

 

I did. Then on the tutorial it said highlight and exclude from project, which I did.

 

Why would you exclude the file you just added?

 

I have no clue, it said to do it in the tutorial, go to chapter 3, video 1. I did EXACTLY what they told me to do.

Edit: Chapter 3, not 2. My bad.

 

Hi 0wn_dem_rune_rocks...

I also get this error when I am doing my project.

You have to provide information on the hardware/driver configuration of the machine performing the build,and also check that The script is also running in your machine It some time would not access Graphical UI,You also try for enabling Window station.

I suspect that if the machine performing the build does not meet the minimum hardware-driver requirements for running XNA games.

And also builds would not work either, but I have not experimentally verified this.

May this will help you in your project.

 

that helps me a lot !!
