Download handler for saving the downloaded data to file.
This specialized download handler writes all downloaded bytes directly to file. This can help avoid high memory usage. Note that you cannot get any data out of this download handler; you are expected to work with resulting file after the download is finished.

error | Error message describing a failure that occurred inside the download handler. |
isDone | Returns true if this DownloadHandler has been informed by its parent UnityWebRequest that all data has been received, and this DownloadHandler has completed any necessary post-download processing. (Read Only) |
