    For the EDIT, i tried multiple times, and unsubscribing gets everything back properly.
    I just needed to restart a few times ...
    At some point, some version may disappear but at the next restart it gets back. Weird but working.

    Is it working as you want, on your Dedicated Server now?

    @Felix Schendel What do you mean with "unusable"?
    Does that mean that, if you install an Update to the base Component, that already has the own Update installed, like it is with the DLC, that you can join a Server, that only uses the original Mod, with that Configuration?
    I ask, because that was something that didn't worked in the Past and it would be great, if that would worl now.

    Yes. So lets say the base S397 Car has version number 1.00. The update one from S397 has version number 1.01 (the ones with the skins, upgrades.ini ...). If you make your own skin pack and make the update to 1.00 and use the version number LP_1.00 for your update pack 1.01 and LP_1.00 can coexist and usued for your league server and for any server which uses the default one.

    If you update against 1.01 the newest version of the car ist your LP_1.00 and the only one which can be used.

    Pay also attention to the characterlimit I posted before. It took some hours to figure this out.

    Hello i have redone the rfcmp from even version number following your advices.
    Cars didn't show when starting dedicated UI ...
    I thought, lets try the unlock procedure ... again ...
    And you know what ... It worked.
    I installed the pack in the server from MAS utility, updated it to Steam. And everything works perfectly.
    I can switch from my 2 servers without any issues.
    In singe mode i only see the "new" version and not the previous ... but looks like my rF2 stays compatible with "standard" cars.

    When you update paid content, you probably need to re-unlock your dedicated server which is probably normal.
