Dirty Edits?

[Arsalan]

BOSS says that a number of the files have "Dirty Edits". For example, with Dawnguard.esm it says: "Contains dirty edits: 619 ITM, 82 UDR records. Needs TES5Edit cleaning. A cleaning guide is available here." Do these files need to be cleaned or not? It says the same for Hearthfire and I cannot get the Apiary to appear for some reason and I think this might be that reason. Could these dirty edits also effect mods such as Run For Your Lives which does not work properly for me anymore?

With the exception of Skyrim.esm, all of the vanilla Skyrim esm files including the DLC esm files need to be cleaned with TES5Edit.

Do not clean any of Bethesda's .esm files. You can, however, removes ITM's and UDR's from any mods you might install.

With the exception of Skyrim.esm all of the vanilla Skyrim esm files including the DLC esm files need to be cleaned with TES5Edit.

So I should clean every file except Skyrim.esm that BOSS says has dirty edits? What about files with "Bash Tag suggestion(s): {{BASH: Delev, Relev}}"?

[xiamthewalrusx]

Ya, sry... I was incorrect. Don't worry about the Bash Tag suggestions.

[Arsalan]

Thanks for that
