I've been trying to set up a resources text file called badwords.txt (for a profanity filter) for a while now. I finally got my server code to build with no errors or warnings, but once it starts up, I get the error shown below. I'm not really experienced with C#, so I have no idea what I did that broke it. I've tried removing the code I changed. That did nothing, so I've concluded that I somehow broken something up when I was messing with the project proeperties. Does anyone have any idea what I did? Here's the error text:

Update: If I remove the .resx resource file, then rebuild, it runs again, but that just leaves me back at square one. I'm now almost certain I've done it right. Maybe PlayerIO just doesn't allow resource files? If that's the case, is there any other way for me to embed a text file?

If you want to embed resources in your game DLL you should check out this page:

http://playerio.com/documentation/refer ... edresource

Just put your text file with badwords anywhere in the project, right-click it, choose "Properties", and change build action to "Embedded resource". That way it will be copied into the DLL, and you can then use our EmbeddedResource class to get the data. Don't use that .resx thing.

Thanks! I got it working. I had tried just placing it in the project and setting it to embedded resource before, but I didn't know playerIO has a class for it. (I'd tried the usual way, and it didn't work)
