Hi,
Downloading images at runtime to use it in the game should be treated really carefully to avoid crashing the game. Specially in mobile where the memory is limited.
That's why I haven't added a term like the one you described.
Instead, its advised to use AssetBundles to store your new content (Images, etc) in the web. If you are already managing bundles, you can easily integrate your existing code with i2L for it get the Images from the bundles.
In version 2.6.7f1 I added support for bundles.
In the Examples\Common\Script folder there is a class named RegisterBundlesManager.cs
That component, when attached to an object in your scene, it registers itself in the ResourcesManager and if the sprite can't be found in the Resources folder, the managers calls the LoadFromBundle function, allowing you to get the sprite from your bundles.
If you are not managing AssetBundles, then in 2.6.8 I'm planning on releasing a simple manager that could do that for you.
However, if you still need to download images from the web when a localization happens, then you could use the following script.
Just add it to your GameObject containing the Image or RawImage and select the Term.
Hope that helps,
Frank

public class DownloadLocalizedTexture : MonoBehaviour
{
[TermsPopup] public string Term;
public void OnEnable()
{
LocalizationManager.OnLocalizeEvent += OnLocalize;
}
public void OnDisable()
{
LocalizationManager.OnLocalizeEvent -= OnLocalize;
StopAllCoroutines ();
}
public void OnLocalize()
{
StartCoroutine ("DownloadTexture");
}
IEnumerator DownloadTexture()
{
// Get the localized URL and validate it
string TextureURL = ScriptLocalization.Get (Term);
if (string.IsNullOrEmpty (TextureURL))
yield break;
// Download the texture
var www = new WWW (TextureURL);
yield return www;
// Can't find the image or there is no internet
if (string.IsNullOrEmpty (www.error) || www.texture == null)
yield break;
// Set the value for Image
var imageCmp = GetComponent<UnityEngine.UI.Image> ();
if (imageCmp) {
imageCmp.sprite = Sprite.Create(www.texture, new Rect(0, 0, www.texture.width, www.texture.height), Vector2.one*0.5f);
yield return null;
}
// Set the value for RawImage
var rawImage = GetComponent<UnityEngine.UI.RawImage> ();
if (rawImage)
rawImage.texture = www.texture;
}
}
Hope that helps,
