• Version: 1.3 [2004-03-04] No longer updated.
• Author: Ghostwheel
• Download: Planet Elder Scrolls

Mod Management

• Generate conflict report.
• Select and reorder mods.
  • Note: Reorder feature is very limited -- it only allows you to cause the mod to load last (it resets the modified date of the mod to one minute after your current last loading mod).
• Merge leveled lists.
  • Obsolete: Use Wrye Mash leveled list feature instead.
  • Warning: The leveled lists generated by this are not correctly sequenced -- with the result that some creatures will not appear as soon as they should. To correct this, you need to use the Leveled List Resequencer.
• Merge objects.
  • Warning: This feature is experimental and will cause problems for some mods.
• Merge dialog changes.
  • Warning: This feature is experimental and will cause problems for some mods.

Mod Repair

• One-click “JUST FIX IT!” button that automatically executes a set of tasks to reduce number of conflicts between active plugins as much as possible without any user interaction.
• Clean mods.
  • Remove GMST contamination.
  • Remove empty dialog topics.
  • Remove empty cells.
  • Remove duplicate refrences.
  • Remove duplicate objects.

[edit] Mods That Should Not Be Merged

The following mods should not have their objects or dialogs merged by TESTool. This is because they are VERY complex mods, and TESTool cannot clean them appropriately. It is safe to assume that these mods can do without cleaning.
