Asset Store going FUBAR AGAIN! SERIOUSLY!

Right now it is throwing me the following errors :

1. Download manager's dark background is now white (I am on Pro version).

2. Previous Asset Store download window prints VERSION NUMBER of the currently installed Assets right below the Asset name which is very convenient to identify and check the version number before updating. It is now removed for no reason.

3. Once the asset is downloaded - it no longer automatically pops up the updating window to give you the option to update.

4. Manually forcing the updating results in the following error:
"Error while importing package - package has unknown format.
UnityEditor.DockArea OnGUI()"

 

Yes, i can`t understand this changes too, see this thread:

Not only that, but the list of assets for me to update has changed. With the old store window, I had certain packs I did not want to update so they always appeared in the "update" area. They aren't there now, which makes no sense to me, as theoretically I haven't updated them and they are at least one version behind.

Also, now I have several assets listed as requiring updates that were not previously listed. 15, in fact.

Bottom line: I don't currently trust the asset store window.

 

Whole site was down, seems fine now. Move along. Nothing to see here.

 

I don't know anything about the system being down. But this new format has been around for a few days now.

I just updated an asset that was listed in the online store as getting a new version yesterday, but it wasn't in my editor's update list yet. Not sure why there should be a waiting period - or if it was ever going to appear in my update list - as other updates have been passed through to the editor's version of the store in mere minutes.

 

Wow, okay my bad I just opened it up and its definitely totally whacked out. Weird though, it was working fine for me recently but everything was wonky this morning.

 

I don't understand either, why fix it if it ain't broken?

 

It's broken all right, but now it's even worse. I don't see the performance issues fixed ,and useful features removed.

 

Its been 2 days now, and the god damn thing is still broken!

 

I really like that it doesn't do that. It's super-annoying to update a bunch of packages and have it popping up that window and stealing focus all the time.

 

I'm talking to Unity QA team, and they think this new behavior is better. Please go and let them know.

 

Previously, the asset store was not working well. Now it is much better, and the version numbers have been restored.
