Assets

Whether you have only a few or many Assets in your game, it's great to be familiar with managing them so that you can find, edit, and activate (or deactivate) them easily and quickly.

Organizing & Searching for Assets

If your game has a lot of different Assets, you might want to search or organize your Asset Manager screen. To search for an Asset, enter your search terms into the search box in the top right corner of the Asset Manager screen.

Assets in the Asset Manager are sorted by Context by default. To sort by a different filter, click the title of the column in the Asset Manager. To edit the columns that are visible in the Asset Manager, click the cog icon next to the search bar.

Editing an Asset

To edit an Asset’s data, click on the Edit button associated with the Asset you would like to edit on the right side of the Asset Manager screen.

It is only possible to make edits to an Asset while in the Staging Environment. Learn more about the different environments here.

Activating / Deactivating an Asset

By default, new Assets are inactive. An inactive Asset is not sent to your game and cannot be granted to a player. To activate an Asset, click the green Activate button when editing an Asset. Similarly, to deactivate an Asset, click the red Deactivate button.

If you deactivate an Asset it will be hidden from your player's inventories

Retrieve Assets In-Game

To start retrieving assets you can run following:

Unity

int count = 10;
LootLockerSDKManager.GetAssetListWithCount(count, (response) =>
{
    if (response.success)
    {
        Debug.Log("Successfully retrieved " + response.assets.Length + " assets");
    }
    else
    {
        Debug.Log("Error retrieving assets");
    }
});

Unreal

After the initial method has completed retrieving assets you can call this method to get more:

Unity

LootLockerSDKManager.GetAssetNextList(count, (response) =>
{
    if (response.success)
    {
        Debug.Log("Successfully retrieved second batch of " + response.assets.Length + " assets");
    }
    else
    {
        Debug.Log("Error retrieving assets");
    }
});

If you want to retrieve all you assets you can keep calling the method until you stop receiving assets.

After finishing retrieving the assets you need, it's best practice to run the following code, as if you try to get assets later, you might start from your previous last retrieved asset.

Unity

This is only relevant for Unity! This is not the case for Unreal.

LootLockerSDKManager.ResetAssetCalls();

Retrieve Assets With Filter

Unity

int count = 10;
List<LootLocker.LootLockerEnums.AssetFilter> filter = new List<LootLocker.LootLockerEnums.AssetFilter>() { LootLocker.LootLockerEnums.AssetFilter.nonpurchasable };

LootLockerSDKManager.GetAssetListWithCount(count, (response) =>
{
    if (response.success)
    {
        Debug.Log("Successfully retrieved " + response.assets.Length + " assets");

    }
    else
    {
        Debug.Log("Error retrieving assets");
    }
}, filter);

To use Filters, simply specify the filter you want to retrieve assets with, through the same blueprint as before.

Retrieve Assets by IDs

If you already know the IDs of the assets you wish to get, you can use this method to retrieve them specifically.

Unity

string[] list = new string[] { "8111" };

LootLockerSDKManager.GetAssetsById(list, (response) =>
{
    if (response.success)
    {
        Debug.Log("Successfully retrieved " + response.assets.Length + " assets");
        Debug.Log("First Asset ID: " + response.assets[0].id);

    }
    else
    {
        Debug.Log("Error retrieving assets");
    }
});

Retrieve Favourite Assets

Unity

LootLockerSDKManager.ListFavouriteAssets((response) =>
{
    if (response.success)
    {
        Debug.Log("Successfully retrieved " + response.favourites.Length + " assets");

        if (response.favourites.Length > 0)
        {
            Debug.Log("First Asset ID: " + response.favourites[0]);
        } else
        {
            Debug.Log("No favourite assets");
        }
    }
    else
    {
        Debug.Log("Error retrieving assets");
    }
});

Add Favorite Asset

Unity

LootLockerSDKManager.AddFavouriteAsset("8111", (response) =>
{
    if (response.success)
    {
        Debug.Log("Successfully favourited asset");
    }
    else
    {
        Debug.Log("Error favouriting asset");
    }
});

Remove Favourite Asset

Unity

LootLockerSDKManager.RemoveFavouriteAsset("8111", (response) =>
{
    if (response.success)
    {
        Debug.Log("Successfully removed favourite asset");
    }
    else
    {
        Debug.Log("Error removing favourite asset");
    }
});

        {
            Debug.Log("Successfully retrieved " + response.storage.Length + " key value pairs");
        }
        else
        {
            Debug.Log("No key value pairs for asset instance");
        }
