Kromey, excellent advice on cleaning, thank you. I've been using the CK cleaning process you described on my house mod. Unfortunately after a major version update (mostly exterior Navmesh but also with some major interior architectural changes) it doesn't seem to work anymore. I.e. after "ignoring" specific cells I know were not modified in any way other then then CK loading them while I worked on the exterior Navmesh, loading the .esp with the ignored references and then immediately saving, the cells are still marked as modified by the .esp the next time I look at the file details. I also have the same issue with a vanilla interior cell ignoring the "marked as ignore" feature! Any suggestions? I'm not wild about using SkyEdit or TESnip as I don't fully understand the .esp structures, but I hate the idea of releasing a mod that hasn't been cleaned. Thank you - S.
