EDIT: I have completely revamped this project and greatly improved the previous “updater” and made it a true patcher.
See this topic: http://forum.unity3d.com/threads/111671-M2HPatcher-The-Unity-patching-solution?highlight=m2hpatcher

On 1. don’t zip it, dmg it so they can drag - drop it. thats more standard anyway than zipping.

that being said they should carry over the chmod too if the zip was generated with osx compression functionality

Thanks for the feedback. Well the zip file works just fine when unzipping it on Mac. However it’s the unzip code that I use in unity that doesn’t respect the permissions (Due to the File.Create call I guess, but I dont think I can add any permission flags here).
I’d prefer automating this as a .dmg is just as much work as using a .zip here.

Awesome Leepo, was looking for something like this for a while now. I’ll give it a try.

http://www.icsharpcode.net/opensource/sharpziplib/
i used that one, works great in C#

9

i dont really undestand the sharpziplib :frowning:
mostly i script in js but i know a bit c#

but thats too high for me :smile:

How do i have to use it?
Where to put the downloaded file?
How to do after having downloaded a file from the net?

Is there a way to save the file locally before extracting or something?

Many questions i know but i hope u can answer them easily :wink:

Thanks

did you write your patcher in C# ?

11

what i have now :
Yes…

But it s only a script that downloads a file when u click on a button whit a progress bar…

Note:
I have the same script in js :smile:
But i think i need it in c# to use sharpziplib right? :smile:

Do u know an example for a normal zip file?
Not gzip not tar not targz normal zip?

And where do i have to put the library file i downloaded?the sharpziplib?

you need to add a reference to the lib in csharp, you can find out how to do that in google

15

last question for today…
Tomorrow ill check it out :wink:

So my question:
Lets say we have 3 scenes:patcher menu game…
When i patch the game in the first scene with a patch to have 2 more levels are they integrated automatically or do i have to restart the application to male the changes beeing applyed?

16

i know nothing about in game patching, i made an updater that patches all and then starts the new game.

17

I love you.
