Users adding their own content.

[Armirtile]

Hi everyone,
My current project I’m working on requires users to add their own content to place within a virtual space. So I need to allow people to add their own 3D models and pictures in a built version of my game. I’ve scoured the internet looking for something to help me get started but had no luck. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Is this possible using Unity?

Did something like this in Director 10+ years ago, so it better be possible in Unity.
It’s easy to read/write text files, so you’ll need to come up with some format that lets you specify models, textures, etc.

I’d start here:
