Basically I have several character var files that have things like clothing dependencies that I would like to remove, is there an easy way to remove them? I tried manually deleting the files, but every time I scan the hub for missing packages it just installs them again. I've tried searching on both here and Google, but can't find anything on the topic

In Package Manager, you can mark the vars you want to keep with a check box that tells Vam to ignore and hide missing dependencies. Then, the missing dependencies list will not show those items you deleted again, or offer to download them. That's the simplest way, rather than mucking about in the files inside the var.

you can also unpack the var file in Package Manager, then go to Addons folder, go into the now new folder with your extracted content, Edit the json file and remove the dependecie you dont want to pop up error msg for(be careful to remove only that part and dont touch anything else!). after that simply repack it in Package Manager.

That's what I described as mucking about with the files. Unless you have an editor app that enforces the syntax, you can easily screw up the meta.json. I used to do exactly that, unpack and edit. Now I just mark them to ignore stuff I don't want.Yes thats what i clumsily tried to explain
