TES4edit new version(s) questions : IV

» Fri Feb 08, 2013 10:51 pm

I've not done much with my load order in a great while so am behind the times when it comes to new mods and updates to old favorites. I just yesterday became aware of new versions of TES4edt, and have now updated from 253 to 3028-experimental. The only obvious menu difference I notice is that there are now two filtering options, the standard one I've always used and a new one that reads "Apply filter for cleaning". I assume this is a convenience option that automatically configures TES4edit for ITM and UDR?

Nexus documentation states that we should re-clean all mods with the new TES4edit, using original esps rather than previously cleaned esps. Has anyone found this necessary? Are there any particular Oblivion mods that most definitely benefit from cleaning anew?

Sorry if this has been asked before, but my searches don't find an active TES4edit thread, and TES5edit threads are geared solidly toward Skyrim (which I own but haven't played since way before TES5edit came into being).

Oh, my load order (not that it's likely to matter in this case):
