Using LoadFromCacheOrDownload on a server that requries authorization

    I am using a server that requires a login and password. When using the WWW object I am using the WWWForm object to add the authorization header so that I can access the data. This works.

    But now I am trying to download asset bundles from the same server using LoadFromCacheOrDownload and am receiving "401 Authorization Required". I can't add headers to this call since that is not a parameter that can be passed with this function. Is there any way around this or is there a way to add these headers before the call?

    We actually aren't using the LoadFromCacheOrDownload() in WebGL because of memory issues. The browser handles most of the caching for us currently though this is not ideal. We can apply request headers using the standard WWW calls and will soon be moving to the new UnityWebRequest system anyway.

    I see. In my case, I finally downloaded my datas with the WWW function (which allows me to use the header), then I saved my datas manually (using an array of bytes) in the cache memory :

    Code (CSharp):
    1. WWW www = new WWW (url, null, headers);
    2. yield return www;
    3.  
    4. if (!Directory.Exists(Application.persistentDataPath + "/Models/")) {
    5.     Directory.CreateDirectory(Application.persistentDataPath + "/Models/");
    6. }
    7.  
    8. byte[] bytes = www.bytes;
    9.  
    10. File.WriteAllBytes(Application.persistentDataPath + "/Models/" + modelName + ".unity3d", bytes);
    11.  
    12. AssetBundle bundle = AssetBundle.LoadFromFile(Application.persistentDataPath + "/Models/" + modelName + ".unity3d");
    13. yield return bundle;
    14.  
    15. modelDownloaded = bundle.LoadAsset(bundle.GetAllAssetNames()[0], typeof(GameObject)) as GameObject;
    16.  
    17. bundle.Unload (false);
    Hoping that it can help.
