Webplayer cache directory location
I see that the Unity Web Player places files in the "APPDATA" folder (or, in my specific case, in the \Local Settings\Application Data\Unity\Web Player\Cache directory).
I wonder if there'a a setting somewhere so that I can move the cache somewhere else (like on a different disk/partition) as my primary partition is just for the OS and not much more and it's running low on space (I have around 500MB free while on the D: disk I have 60+GB free and I'd like to move my 1GB unity cache on the D: disk).
Just as a "wish", people can easily change and remap their "documents" directory via windows, (My is under D:\myself\documents), cache could be placed there, maybe under d:\myself\documents\My Games\Unity

I used NTFS junctions to do this:
mklink /J C:\Users\username\LocalLow\Unity\WebPlayer\Cache D:\where\you\want\to\put\this\Cache
Remember to move the cache contents over to the new location if you don't want to download it again.

I doubt it, unless it's in the Registry, but you could 'wish' for it here: feedback.unity3d.com
Seems like under H$$anonymous$$EY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Unity\WebPlayer there are two keys that point to the webplayer directory. I'll try to fiddle with them...
