Asset Bundles Actions

[Kubold]

Hi!

I would love to see some Actions to stream Asset Bundles, like:

AssetBundle.Load
AssetBundle.LoadAsync - especially this one
AssetBundle.LoadAll


I'm in the point in my project when I need to seamlessly spawn lots of enemies. If I simply go with 'Create Object' and create, for example 40 enemies in 3 seconds, it causes terrible hickups. Actually, any Create Object causes a little glitch.

So far I read that creating and loading AssetBundles asynchronously will fix the glitches (If this is not correct, please tell me how should I do this . If there already is an Action like this, please send a link!

Thanks!

If this is, for some reason, impossible, please let me know.

Hi,

 no, nothing impossible. I am just personaly running behind... Keep bumping this please, It is important to provide support for this, so I am willing to make them actions, but need to properly test and allocate the time for it.

Hi,

 Thanks for bumping I found the time today at last!

 So please have a go at the package attached to this thread. It features the following:

-- action to download from cache or url an assetBundle
-- action to load main asset
-- action to load asset by name
-- action to unload assetBundle

-- a test scene downloading an asset that  I stored on my server ( in "custom samples" folder)
-- Tools to create bundles ( in Assets menu: "Build Asset From Selection")

If that's good for you, I'll put it on the wiki.

bye,

 Jean

Thank you so much! You the man!

Can This Work With Unity 5?

[jeanfabre]

Hi,

 you should try, I haven't yet. I know Unity 5 has changed the way asset bundles work, so this could be obsolete for sure
