Builds an asset bundle (Unity Pro only).
Creates a compressed unity3d file that contains a collection of assets. AssetBundles can contain any asset found in the project folder.
pathName.
/options/ allows you to automatically include dependencies or always include complete assets instead of just the exact referenced objects.All paths are relative to the project folder. Like: "Assetscrchello.png". The optional crc output parameter can be used to get a CRC checksum for the generated AssetBundle, which can be used to verify content when downloading AssetBundles using WWW.LoadFromCacheOrDownload.Note that asset bundles built for standalone or webplayer targets cannot be loaded by
applications built for mobile platforms and vice versa. Furthermore, bundles are not
compatible between iOS and Android platforms.The function returns a boolean value which is true if the build succeeded and false otherwise.See Also: AssetBundle class, WWW.assetBundle.
