How do I read a Raw Asset in code?

[Sasinosoft]

Hello,
How do I read a raw asset in code?
The Xenko.Core.Assets assembly is not even included with the NugetPackage, so I don’t have the RawAsset class.
What is the correct way to access a raw asset (e.g. a simple text file)?

Thanks in advance.

you can use OpenAsStream as described here:

Filestream from Xenko's Assets

I have a binary file I’ve imported into the Assets folder (as a Raw Asset). In order to use this in visual studio however, I have to have a copy for visual studio in order to open a file stream. System.IO.Stream stream = typeof(FileManager).GetTypeInfo().Assembly.GetManifestResourceStream("whetting.Resources.sampleLayout.xml"); Is there a way to get a filestream from a xenko asset instead of having two copies of the asset? Or at least how do I find the URI path so I can reference it in the a…

If you just need to fetch data from a text file you can just use File or FileStream from the System.IO class or some other similar method, Microsoft has plenty of documentation on these methods.

If you want to read it from the game’s asset package, then I cant help, it’s been a while since I worked with xenko and I dont remember it quite as well as I used to or as I would with Unity. If I wasn’t busy though I would research the xenko documentation for answers though
