WHY?
I got fed up with endless loading times and the utter lack of available sorting options for my .var library.
Not only is my VaM instance running at a low framerate, everything is loading slow as hell.
Unlike most other .var management programs, this.var manager is non-intrusive, meaning it does not make any changes to the actual .var files (except for their location).
It uses symlinks to activate selected .var's and moves everything that is not active out of VaM’s .var directory, which significantly reduces load times.
It’s designed to be as simple as possible while still providing as many important features as possible.
UnknownPeasant's .var Manager v0.12 (alpha)
This is a MAUI application that you run completely separate from your VaM installation, allowing you to manage your .var library more efficiently.
Designed with vast amounts of .var files in mind, this tool helps you get a better experience out of your huge content libraries.

Disclaimer:
This is the first release of my Manager and there may be bugs. I take no responsibility if this tool damages or destroys your files. Use it at your own risk!
Alpha/Beta.
While the Manager is in alpha/beta, it will be available for free so everyone can try it out and provide feedback for improvements, please do so by sending me a message here or over at Patreon. If you get it during the alpha/beta phase, you are free to keep that version forever.
To avoid misleading anyone: later on, after the alpha/beta testing, the Manager will probably be available in two versions, one free and one paid where the paid version will include some additional premium features.

First-time setup / scanning
The first time you launch the Manager (or whenever you add new .var files), you need to scan your files.
I recommend using the default settings for this (or even smaller thumbnails if you prefer).
The first scan can take a long time to complete. Just let it run until it’s done.
