IIRC, the suggested solution is to use CultureInfo.InvariantCulture when saving/loading files to/from disk.

I can only second The Fiddler's suggestion, when dealing with a defined floating string format use something like

float myvalue = 0.0f;
if (Single.TryParse(mystring, NumberStyles.Float, CultureInfo.InvariantCulture, out myvalue)) {
  // use parsed value here...
}

Quite correct. I will fix this when/if I ever get back around to this project.
