Uploading files at runtime and use them in a built game

Questions & Answers
1

I would like to allow the users of my game to upload their images and then display them in the game.
I wanted to create an upload element (as in HTML) and when the users select their images, upload them into the “Resources” folder but I read somewhere that it’s impossible because the resources folder is already compiled. Is it?

Then I thought of doing that using an AssetBundle but I’m not sure if it’s possible to create an AssetBundle using a compiled game and then upload it to a server… Is it possible? How do I do that?

Is there a better way to achieve what I wrote above?

Also, how do I do that with 3D assets. Is it possible?

Hello there,

If you want to store and use the image locally, I’d recommend looking into the very useful Application.persistentDataPath. I do something similar at the office, and it seems to work just fine.

Hope that helps!
