Suggestion - .var content preview on hub

[Pralinezz]

It would be pretty rad to have a content preview of resources here on the hub, something like the contents table in the ingame resources manager to more accuratlely view what a .var file contains, expecially for resources like looks and scenes that may contains more than just saves or vap presets.

Not sure but if I understand what you're saying sounds like just checking the dependency list... is that what you're referring too, because you can still click on the names the same way and go to the item or are you asking for a better display of the list.

Not what I meant, i mean a preview of whats packed in the .var you're about to download, not its dependencies.

something like this we have ingame but here onthe hub

Moderators can see this information. I suppose we could make it public. However, it won't work for everything. Which reminds me, we are dragging our feet removing the off-site content from the free category.

I get why seeing this information is useful to the moderation tasks, but what's the interest in a user seeing it in the Hub, if you don't mind me asking @Pralinezz? It's not like you could do anything with it until you download it.
And would that be to free content or paid too?

My suggestion would be just for convenience and ease of viewing content that you might want to download, lets say i see a free look on the hub im not intrested in but the skin used on it does, i could easily see if the textures used are just edited versions of textures i already have (of course if the naming logic of the autor premits it), if its just face textures or whole body etc, it would just help making it clearer what youre adding instead of wasitng traffic and time to find it out by downloading, i saw resourceslisted as clothing being actually hairstyles with fancy custom scalps, others that are in reality just CUAs...

I think it would just be another benefit to users, or at least to somewhat advanced ones.
If its a feature already present on the hub and making it public doesnt interfier with admin work or the hub tos or general rules i think it would be a preatty neat addition.
