I think he simply meant he thought it was funny when looking at the log and seeing the results, how it tended to be less well known mods which were listed as needing cleaning. Not so surprising though really, as the better known mods will have a lot of users so the authors will have received reports of any issues including some pointing out the cleaning process.
Ah fair enough. Im still learning haha
But yes it makes sense less well known mods with perhaps less experienced authors have more dirty/wild edits. Would be nice if every author cleaned their mod before release though. Perhaps a reminder should pop up before a user uploads a mod saying "have you cleaned your mod? if not look here..." But that'll make our lifes to easy i suppose
One quick question, ive cleaned a few mods now, but in bain im now getting a orange background on the installer to which the mod i cleaned and it says there is a conflict, yet the conflict box is empty. Is this because i cleaned the esp, the installer still has the original and is recognising it is different? I dont suppose it'll hurt leaving it like that will it? I guess the only solution to that would be to repackage the mod with the cleaned esp instead of the original and reinstall?
Also what does non solid mean compared to a solid archive? as ones i repackage myself are non solid.
