VAR file... <creator>.<name>.<version>
VAR file AddonPackages\AlmightyPatty.RE8_WeaponsPack1.var is not named with convention <creator>.<name>.<version>- The VAR is not named using the pattern creator.name.version.var, notice the version part does not exist.
- Solutions:
- correct the VAR name to follow the expected pattern, and do tell the creator of the VAR about the mistake
- Tip: search in File Explorer using this pattern:
~="(1)"; this will only bring copies and not legitimate VAR versions as .1.var; if needed replace 1 with 2 and so on
- Tip: search in File Explorer using this pattern:
- if you redownload the VAR and a existing copy exists in that folder, Windows will add a (1) to the name. In this case delete the copy(ies) with (#) and move only the correct VAR to AddonPackages
- correct the VAR name to follow the expected pattern, and do tell the creator of the VAR about the mistake
- Impact: VAR contents will not be accessible
Duplicate package uid AshAuryn.Pose_Tools.2. Cannot register- You have a duplicate copy of the VAR
- Solution: remove the copy; subfolders in the AddonPackages folder is usually the source for this error
- Impact: no impact besides reporting in the log as one copy will be usable
Missing addon package theagle.COCO.latest that packageArk1F1.Olivia_McAllister.1 depends on- You're missing a dependency (theagle.COCO) requested by a VAR (Ark1F1.Olivia_McAllister.1.var)
- Solution: download the missing dependency from the Hub or use the built-in Hub Browser for Hub hosted content; non-Hub hosted content is your task to find them
- Impact: depends; can go from having no impact on the listed VAR to breaking it completely
Exception during process of meta.json from package tptpsg.tptp12.1: System.Exception: JSON Parse: Too many closing brackets- The meta.json file inside the listed VAR has a invalid JSON structure
- Solution: fix the JSON structure in the VAR's meta.json and/or tell the creator to fix it; this error's source comes from the creator manually editing this file and making a mistake
- Impact: depends; if the error happens in the dependencies list of the meta.json file it will not be able to provide you a list of needed dependencies and give you invalid dependencies (Hub Browser)
Exception during zip file scan of AddonPackages\cc.big.3.var: ICSharpCode.SharpZipLib.Zip.ZipException: Cannot find central directoryException during read of morph binary file AddonPackages\Shapes.WendyVIP.1.var:\Custom\Atom\Person\Morphs\female_genitalia\Wendy - Genital.vmb ICSharpCode.SharpZipLib.Zip.ZipException: Wrong local header signature- Problems with the VAR file
- Solution 1: redownload the file, the file could be corrupted; if the redownloaded VAR gives the same error tell the creator about it
- Solution 2: repairing with WinRAR
- Impact: unable to use the VAR contents; if this is pervasive your VaM folder may have permission issues (see FAQ)
Atom type <type> does not exist. Cannot add- This error occurs when the scene is trying to load a specific item type that doesn't exist in your VaM version (aka "out of date" client)
- Solution: update VaM or ask the creator if they have a version for older VaM versions (doubtful)
- Impact: the scene may not work correctly without that atom type
