Hello,
I already know that people can easily load resources from the resource folder, and also create asset bundles of files in folders, but what if during the game, I want to make a way to easily have a dialog box show up where I can open all the files in a folder that is on my hard drive, and access resources THAT way? Wouldn’t that be a good idea (to where the user can open up a local folder)? Do they have this feature?
Thanks,
Michael S. Lowe
There’s this,
A Native file browser for unity standalone platforms
Thank you. Since the examples use ‘var’ for their examples, is the ‘paths’ variable a string or an object? It would seem like if I wanted to open an entire folder, the return value of the function would need to be in the form of an array or a list. How would I access all the data I open from a folder? My goal is to take all the files in a folder, and store it into an array, instead of using Resource.LoadAll() from the Resource folder.
Also, would I copy everything from the unzipped folder of my zip file (from UnityStandaloneFileBrowser) into the “Standard Assets” folder of my project?
there is ready package it seems, so that probably includes all the necessary files
Thank you, but 3 errors developed out of the package…
Assets/StandaloneFileBrowser/StandaloneFileBrowserWindows.cs(5,14): error CS0234: The type or namespace name Windows' does not exist in the namespace System’. Are you missing an assembly reference?
Assets/StandaloneFileBrowser/StandaloneFileBrowserWindows.cs(7,7): error CS0246: The type or namespace name `Ookii’ could not be found. Are you missing an assembly reference?
Assets/StandaloneFileBrowser/StandaloneFileBrowserWindows.cs(15,34): error CS0246: The type or namespace name `IWin32Window’ could not be found. Are you missing an assembly reference?
is there a way to download packages, have Unity ‘detect’ what files got added to where, what changes have been made to a project, and have that same package ‘undo’ and clean up everything?
check your player settings,
that package contained these files,
I downloaded it a third time, but am still receiving these same errors. I assume that the ‘using Ookii.Dialogs’ line is in reference to the Ookii.Dialogs.dll file, and the other ‘using’ lines that are giving me the other 2 errors are in reference to the .dll files, but maybe these .dll files were placed in the wrong directory somehow, and I don’t know where to put them IF that is the case.
Are you on windows target platform?
and did you set
I haven’t yet learned how to do this.
in menu Edit/Project Settings/Player
there is dropdown for API compatibility level
It didn’t fix the problem. How would I get to window’s target platform?
File / Build settings
Select pc, click switch platform
Are you running unity on pc, mac or linux?
I am running a PC, and it turns out I am using the PC, Mac and Linux Standalone platform, and still got those errors.
works here either importing the package, or copying from the zip…
can you screenshot your project window? (just to see all those files are there)
I found out what the problem was. I had to upgrade Unity.
Hello mgear!
Any suggestions how to modify the location of the window when the dialog pops up?
That would be of great help!
Thank you!
