Question by udaanparvaz · Jul 25, 2012 at 12:58 PM · arrayspluginsassetbundlesdirectory

Keeping a record of AssetBundles at Sdcard

What I've done so far :- Integrated the Unity Android Project into Eclispe so that i can use the custom android layouts thus avoiding the UnityGUI. What are my intentions:- To download the assetbundle that is selected by user (in android application ) instantiate it in unity. The implementation that i tried or have failed :- 1.tried reading the directory where the assetbundles are saved(succeeded but can't think of going anywhere from here) 2.tried reading a text file at the assetBundle Path(succeeded but can't think of further implementing it) 3.Had a look into plugins route but got confused (I am too much of noob for this!!)

for implementations 1&2 i am trying to make the url(defined at the WWW) dynamic. Making the url read from an array of paths that i got from directory or from the text file. But I cant think of a way to determine what user must have clicked in the android application and how to make a fake bridge between the android environment and unity player. Implementation 3 seems to be a great way for communication between unity and android. But the concept is too much complicated for me to swing my head around it.

What I want:- I need help in implementing any of the 3 methods above. Please Point me towards the right direction. I hope the details made it easier to understand the scenario that I am facing. I think all of the implementations listed above are possible but my lack of knowledge and experience might kill me someday :)

I finally went with writing a text file at android end and reading this file at the Unity end. This is a great way for communicating between these two platforms but only when your communication needs are limited. Otherwise the plugin route is great for communication.

Answering my own question as it might be useful for other struggling with the same senario. :)
