IAP download purchases

Hi,
Maybe I have missed something but I cannot see where actual purchased assets are stored and downloaded from. For example the game I want to build would allow entire levels to be purchased and only at that point would the actual configuration and other images, assets etc for that level be downloaded to the players device. That way they only have on their device the assets they have paid for and dont clog their phones with stuff they will never need to look at.

Is that even possible and are there any examples?

THanks

The levels would generally already be coded within your game. Then an IAP purchase would unlock these levels. Otherwise, do you currently have a process to download the levels, testing without IAP? Unity IAP does not provide any download or inventory capability.

 

Hi,
I am sure that I have seen something in the docs somewhere about using a class that start wwwload or something similar to load up assetpackages but I cannot find again. WE haven't done this yet its part of a project that contain thousands of scenes /levels but the user can choose to load onto his device only the ones interested in.
Any Ideas

You might try posting in this forum for your non-IAP related question https://forum.unity.com/categories/build-pipeline-runtime-asset-management.154/

 

Hi, I found the refence but it only mentions iPhone https://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/iphone-Downloadable-Content.html
are there any example of actually using this to import assets after paying on android

Please ask in the appropriate forum as mentioned. That link is not for the Unity IAP plugin. Downloading assets is separate from the purchase flow. You will want to trigger such a download with a simple button click for testing to verify that it is working. Once that is working, you can perform the same logic in the ProcessPurchase callback of Unity IAP.
