I just installed SharpDX 2.5.0 into Visual Studio, and now there is one really curios and unexpected errror:
I wanted to start with Atari's 'Pong', so i drew a .bmp file with a ball, convertet it into a .dds file with
Easy2Convert BMP to DDS
added it to the Content, and tried to load it. So i added this line
ballTexture = Content.Load("Ball");
but it failed with the message AssetNotFoundException, the same with
ballTexture = Content.Load("Ball.dds");
and there are hardly no tutorials to find, neither did i find an useful answer... Thats the full path to this picture:
H:\Programmieren\Pong\Pong\Content\Ball.dds
Looking forward to your answers, and please excuse my knowlegde, I was used to XNA, and it was much more easier...
