You might also see some BodyShop items marked as "Replacement". This is when they are simple texture files and contain no other information about what they replace.

Special Types
These types are used to indicate special packages, or when the detection fails mostly, in the case of "Mesh":
- Mesh - Used when the program can't determine what it is, but knows there is a mesh
- Collection
- Shader
- Special - used for CEP, Stuff Packs, etc
- Replacement
- Duplicate
- EmptyPackage - these are probably horribly broken and should be deleted.
Unknowns
If a package cannot be checked against all of the possible above types (which is fairly rare!) then it is flagged as:
- Unknown
In addition, a file called unknowns.txt is created in the Download Organiser program folder with key details than can enable the developers to figure out specific package types. You may send these to Delphy or attach them to a post.
