I am trying to compile the out of the box testing version, but I get the "Error MSB3073 The command "PostBuildActions.bat" exited with code 1."

In looking at the batch file, it fails on the following line:

<Target Name="PostBuild" AfterTargets="PostBuildEvent">
<Exec Command="PostBuildActions.bat" />
</Target>

If I remove the lines, the error goes away but I receive a runtime error about opening Mono Game files.

I suspect this is a simple issue but is there something I am missing that causes this error?

Hi Bill,

You must always fix the first problem.

You need to find out what the batch file is doing to get Error MSB3073.

Google show many reasons for the error, You should start there.

Is the Loading.mgfx file in the location the bat file is looking for it?

Looks like I did not copy the Monogame files over to the Program\Content directory. Thanks for the tips.
