store and search images on a database question
« on: October 28, 2016, 05:09:13 PM »
ill have around 10,000 images the user will search the images looking for the particular image based on a string value.
the size for all those images would be too big to store all on the ipad , so i'd like to store them on a database where the user can download whatever image they like to the ipad and the image will stay stored on the ipad once downloaded, would i be able to achieve this with sql database or not , what would be the best option for this

thank you

game to/from server - www action <-> PHP <-> mySQL

inside game - use the texture compress actions and you can save it as a string. you can save string to/from array then convert back to texture (texture compress actions) from a txt file using playerprefsQ actions
