Read Text Asset not reading CSV

[HanTheMan]

Hello All,

As a newbie I have been trying to get Playmaker to read a straight-forward, comma-separated CSV file. Downloaded all the Add-ons and have been trying different things.
Now I am trying Read Text Asset, then Read CSV, and on from there.
But I can't get Playmaker to read the file.

What am I missing? Can anyone give me a quick hand? Have a link to the appropriate tutorial. Although I have been watching those for 4 days now.

Much appreciated.

Hi,
Maybe Try 'Resources Load'

Make a folder Called 'Resources'

Then its best to make a subfolder (for example Csv Files)

Then on the 'Resources Load' Asset Path set this : "Csv Files/Textbestand Unity001" (without the quotes)
And store as a string.

The Resources folder can be placed anywhere and you can use multiple Resources folders (that's why its best to use subfolders)

Hi Djaydino,

Thank you very much. This ended up solving the problem. Although I have had to change my CSV to semicolon separators. Commas didn't work.
I advanced more this morning than all of last week.

New things keep cropping up. One compiler error I could not find any feedback on is: "OUPPS found a \r".

Any ideas?

Again thank you very much for helping a newbie out.

Best regards,

Han

Hi.
Sorry i have never used CSV only xml / json

but maybe you have some directory / file targeted.

for example myfile\redGrass.png

Thanks again, Djaydino.

Not really clear what's happening here, but it's not an error that stops the program from running, so I'm going to keep going. Appreciate your input getting me unstuck.

Kind regards,

Han
