The file name of the archive downloaded from Nexus contains the version number, but with any special character replaced with -. The current approach to simply replace that back with . works for most mods, but not all.

The proper way would be to

take the updated timestamp from the file name
load /v1/games/{game_domain_name}/mods/{mod_id}/files.json
find the file that matches the updated stamp
use the version field from that

The file name of the archive downloaded from Nexus contains the version number, but with any special character replaced with `-`. The current approach to simply replace that back with `.` works for most mods, but not all. The proper way would be to * take the `updated` timestamp from the file name * load `/v1/games/{game_domain_name}/mods/{mod_id}/files.json` * find the file that matches the `updated` stamp * use the `version` field from that
