Downloading still available Roblox Builds directly from the servers#

To do this a tool was made called Roblox Asset Downloader. To get a list of versions go to 1 for Windows and to 2 for Mac. Current version ID can be found at 3 for Windows.

Getting the time an asset was updated for the last time#

Well just put this code into a script located inside of ServerScriptService. (This is for the specific versions of experiences.)

local asset = game:GetService("MarketplaceService"):GetProductInfo(PutYourAssetIdHere, Enum.InfoType.Asset, VersionValue)
local update_stamp = tostring(asset.Updated)

function ConvertTimeStamp(time_stamp)
    local date_pattern = "%d%d%d%d%-%d%d%-%d%d"
    local stamp_date = string.sub(time_stamp, string.find(time_stamp, date_pattern))

    local split_date = string.split(stamp_date, "-")

    local year = split_date[1]
    local month = split_date[2]
    local day = split_date[3]

    local elapsed_years = (year - 1970)
    local elapsed_months = month - 1
    local elapsed_days = day - 1

    return year, month, day
end

print(ConvertTimeStamp(update_stamp))

Use this if you want the overall last update time:

local asset = game:GetService(“MarketplaceService”):GetProductInfo(PutYourAssetIdHere)
local update_stamp = tostring(asset.Updated)

function ConvertTimeStamp(time_stamp)
    local date_pattern = “%d%d%d%d%A%d%d%A%d%d”
    local stamp_date = string.sub(time_stamp, string.find(time_stamp, date_pattern))

    local split_date = string.split(stamp_date, “-”)

    local year = split_date[1]
    local month = split_date[2]
    local day = split_date[3]

    local elapsed_years = (year - 1970)
    local elapsed_months = month - 1
    local elapsed_days = day - 1

    return year, month, day
end

print(ConvertTimeStamp(update_stamp))
