If you're like me and have a huge collection of looks & scenes in a downloads folder, you probably wish you could see samples what you've downloaded.

This will scan all var files in a directory tree and extract the jpg from the \Saves\scene folder to a Samples folder. You'll be able to browse the thumbnails in the folder and usually find the look you want to add to VAM by matching the jpg filename to the var it came from.

Dependency: You'll need 7Zip (free).

Run this cmd with Powershell in your downloads folder,
Recommended method: Save this into samples.ps1 (in the downloads folder) and right-click --> "Run with Powershell"

If (!(test-path .\Samples)) {md .\Samples}; ls *.var -file -recurse | %{& 'C:\Program Files\7-Zip\7z.exe' e $_ -i!"Saves\scene\*.jpg" -o".\Samples" -r -aoa}
 
Thank you, this might become useful for some people!
