Loading .bmp into Texture2D

Question

I need to load a .bmp file into a Texture2D. To do this, I am using

 blank =   Content.Load<Texture2D("C:\\Users\\Moray\\Desktop\\TP6\\GameMap\\GameMap\\GameMapContent\\blank");

First, while the command executes, there is an error saying that the file cannot be opened.

Second, I am using the full path of the image and that won't work on other computers. The reason I do so, is that when I use Content.RootDirectory + "\\\\map.bmp" , it says that the file could not be found.

What can I do to solve these issues?

Answer 1

无需放置扩展名，仅需放置Content.LoadTexture2D（“ nameOfYourFile_Without_The_Extension”）;

Answer 2

Did you import the image on the project using Visual Studio? At the right you have

'NameOfYourProject[Content]'. Click on it, then 'add an existing element', browse your file and put it.

Second, when you use Content.Load<Texture2D>("path/to/my/file") you are browsing your ProjectContent, you don't put the full path, and you don't put the file extension, XNA will not understand if you do.
