hello!
there's a package that i desperately need unmerged, but s4s won't unmerge it and says it's either not merged, or wasn't made in s4s (it is merged, it has 4 packages in it) i've been told that that's because it needs to have merged package manifest in it. there isn't one, i assume the creator deletes them because it's not the first time from the same creator.
i was hoping i could just create a string (is it called a string? i mean the line in warehouse tab) and try making it myself and trying to unmerge, but it seems to be no manifest category to choose
can it be helped somehow?

Hi. As I understand, this resource contains data about what is what (like, what resource is from what package), so you probably cannot just create it Most likely the author either uses a different program or removes this resource to prevent people from stealing their meshes(common thing with hair meshes) Out of respect to creators, I think it is best to not discuss how to bypass this issue publicly

To be honest i just wanted to keep only the main item and get rid of additional files like accessory recolors, i don't use them and they clutter my CAS.
