It loads assets directly through the asset database for quick iteration with no analysis or asset bundle creation. This lets you move in and out of Play Mode while you’re iterating on content you can run the game quickly as you work through the flow of your game. The scripts are Use Asset Database, Simulate Groups, and Use Existing Build. The Addressables package has three build scripts that create Play Mode data to help you accelerate app development.

Later this year, we will be launching an enterprise ready, global content hosting solution, fully integrated into the Addressables system. With many of the key technical challenges of supporting dynamic content solved by Addressables, the “last mile” problem still remains – the hosting and delivery of assets to live production games and apps. You don’t have to redeploy your player or worry about moving content from one device to another. Check out our documentation to learn more about creating and configuring Hosting Services with Addressables. This is especially useful for content developers and artists, because you can build a player and deploy it to your device while you continue to iterate your content. One powerful feature of Editor hosting is that you can set everything to be remote. You can connect your device or player to this host so you can test things out. When you enable hosting, the Hosting Service sets up an HTTP host within the Editor.
You can set up a remote path and, instead of pointing to the actual URL, use the variables defined by your hosting service. Sometimes you need to host content on a server. This gives you the flexibility to retrieve an asset when you need it, no matter where it is – its location may change depending what stage of development you are in – without having to change the game code. In Addressables, the runtime is asynchronous. One or more providers use those locations to find the content and then return it to the device. The system decodes the address into a location, which consists of the data generated during the build about what the asset is, its dependencies, whether it’s local or remote and so on.įrom the Catalog, the request passes through the Provider system. In the Addressables workflow, the request first passes through the Catalog system.
Common examples of assets include Prefabs, textures, materials, audio clips, and animations.Īddressables abstracts asset bundles to make content management more efficient, while containing the asset and all of its underlying data. An asset is content that you use to create your game or app.
Wherever the asset resides (local or remote), the system will locate it and its dependencies, then return it. Once an asset (e.g., a Prefab) is marked “addressable,” it generates an address that can be called from anywhere.
