    Hey y'all,

    I cant read project files in streaming assets on *nix OS. At first I thought it was a pathing issue, but that is correct.

    Any idea what this means?

    I am using UnityWebRequest to read the files, as I believe that is best practice.

    Thank you for your help

    The error was as obscure as I made it sound

    I needed to add file:// to the URI on nix.

    Thank you
