DLC versions - 08/12/14 10:36 AM
Is there any to to see which versions of DLC are on GG etc?
I see that things are updated sometimes, & I see a version in the updater. But I cannot see a version number on GG to compare to know if I should update my files.
What do I do?
Also I'd really like to see hash values as this would tell me whether a download is different or is corrupt

Great, at least now I will know the files are OK & current, thanks.
Is there any way to know if what GG links to is current/updated? Would be nice to see vendors show the version they have.
They don't show a date or version, & it could save them bandwidth if they did, so updates were more obvious & you didn't have to start a download to find out.
& OT whats 'prefinal' about hooper?

Look at the date suffix in filenames. This is the preferred method of determining the current version. Versions in the game updater are useless in my opinion.
As of Hooper, I don't know. Contents are exactly the same as in the Russian version, which is "final".

This is internal naming in GT (for which there are many reasons not related to the contents of the DLC), use numbers from update utility to indentify, instead of file names.

Ok, so Dev trumps Expert
I'll hope GG etc will use version numbers on their pages too.
