Doubts using Tes4Edit

[VikingII]

I have finally finished my mod and I am ready to clean if it has something wrong. I followed many tutorials but I have a doubt.

 

In this section says that when I applied this filter, dirty records will shown colored in GREEN background and DARK GRAY text. Like in this picture:

This filter doesn't left nothing out, but the next filter of this section, shows me some records colored in YELLOW background, but the text is in GREEN. And one colored in GREEN background with the text in BLACK. (I have attached a screenshot, please see it).

 

I attempted to continue the tutorial by selecting “Remove Identical to Master” but nothing happens.

 

I deleted the files with YELLOW and GREEN background from the left pane (doing a backup first), then I started the game and everything seems to works fine. But I don’t know if I have done a mess...

 

What I need to know is:

 

1) What did my screenshot means?

2) Why the program shows only this tree things and nothing more of my mod?

 

Thank you!

I normally pay no attention to the colour and let TES4Edit do its thing. A message will appear in the "Messages" tab if TES4Edit has done anything or encounters an error.

 

It looks like you've filtered out everything but Identical to Master (ITM) records, and that's why you're only seeing ITM records. It might be easier to filter only by "Conflict status inherited by parent" and then get TES4Edit to remove all the ITM records and then Undelete and Disable References.

Yes, after this tutorial, I followed another one which suggests exactly what you say. I have already applied this filter too, and attempted to remove all ITM and Undelete and Disable References, but nothing happens (in the right pane prints 0 changes and when I close no save is needed).

 

Then I assume everything is fine (¿?) Thanks for your analysis :thumbsup:

Yes, that means the mod was clean to begin with, so you are good to go.
