Downloading Assets from a Server?
Hey everyone, I know there's some info out there but I just wanted to think out loud and get some recommendations.
I'm looking to have my app check for the latest version of a file on a server and if it's not recent, download it.
I know I need a server/host (Any recommendations on who/how to host this file? Potential problems with using a third party host?) as well as networking programming in a startup script to make that check.
I've looked around at solutions but all I want is to download a file to replace a dated file for an offline game. Most results seem to be for online gaming or more persistent downloads etc.
I appreciate any tips or help you can provide! :)
