I'm having trouble getting new assets that I download into the Atom menu so that I can load them easily into a scene. Most assets are .var files and I don't seem to work when placed in the Atom folder. I haven't been able to add a single new Atom to the Atom folder since I started using Vam. Any help would be very much appreciated! Thank you

use Misc/CustomUnityAsset (CUA) to load .assetbundle inside your scene.
EDIT: more info
1) goto edit mode, add Misc/CustomUnityAsset (CUA)
2) select newly added atom, then "Select File..."
3) seach for asset to load in (from var package or custom/assets)
4) once loaded pick you asset from dropdown menu

What exactly appears to be an issue?
You have to be in edit mode, after you add misc/CUA you have to select it, it won't auto pop-up window (it spawns on 0x-0y-0z).
Sometimes it overlaps with floor (for example), so you have to cycle stack or goto select list to pick newly added CUA atom (control).
Then once selected look for your asset to load, once loaded pick from drop down menu.
