DLS shows Packaged Newer Version Available?
I used to be able to download and the status cleared to normal. But, that option is not available on my system now?

You can use download this version as the packaged newer version is most likely in a DLC package.

Sometimes, updates are available on the DLS.

In Content Manager, select the package that shows updates available.
Right-click and view asset versions.
This will open up a new Content Manager window...
Download any update available from the DLS.

Recently, after SP5 came out, there has been a bunch of asset updates. I downloaded a gazillion so far this way. The only assets that won't have any updates will be consists or trains. Other things such as track parts, buildings, industries, etc., will be available for download. In particular, there have been a lot of updated textures.

Are we talking about ground textures here John? This could be a problem for us route builders. After carefully selecting just the right texture for a given area the last thing you want is for it look different to what you intended because of an update.

It wasn't one of those other updates that "fixed" things". These updates fixed the preview issue I had with some of these textures.
