Mod Update Confusion

Hi All,

 

Everyone's work here is remarkable, I speak to all new coders as well as veteran modders . . . Thanks for all your hard work.

Listen, I am having difficulties with respect to updated mods and revision numbers. Sorry for using you David as an example, I do so much love your team's work.

 

For instance,

 

"A World of Pain"

Updated: 01/21/12

File name: A_World_Of_Pain_Main_File_V4-38719-4-0.7z

File Size: 3,469,618 Bytes

 

"A World of Pain"

Updated: 12/6/2011

File Name: A_World_Of_Pain_Main_File_V4-38719-4-0.7z

File Size: 3,469,618 Bytes

 

I do understand that at compilation time, a file can have the same size, it's just the file names that gets me. Without uniquely different revision numbers, I find it difficult to keep track. You see, if I find a glitch in a particular mod, I like to refer back to the older file. When they have the same name, I have to rename each new download. Not that this is not a big deal, I just seems to not be a clean method for revision handling. Does anyone else find this or other aspects of files descriptions troubling?
