Shortened Parameters
Some parameters can be specified in a shortened way now:
- -quickshowconflicts as -qsc
- -veryquickshowconflicts as -vqsc
- -autogamelink as -agl
- -quickclean as -qc
- -quickautoclean as -qac
Changes to QuickAutoClean
As a fix for a problem in Dawnguard.esm (see details below in previous version) QAC was marking all records in a to be cleaned file as modified, which made xEdit assemble these records from parsed data instead of just writing out the bytes that were read when the file was loaded.
This resulted in problems when cleaning Dragonborn.esm (and possibly other files).
xEdit is now only marking all records as modified in Dawnguard.esm
This behaviour can be controlled with 2 parameters:
- -NoAutoMarkModified prevents mark modified from being applied to Dawnguard.esm (resulting in the Soul Cairn error described below)
- -ForceMarkModified always applies mark modified to the cleaned file (if there was anything to clean)

Thanks, your support (and the support of all other Patrons and Donors) is highly appreciated. I hope you'll get a your new machine running soon.

My computer died on me and my replacement is an old laptop unsuitable for playing Skyrim on. That is however no reason to not continue to support a tool I like to use and intend to do again once I got a new machine running. Keep up the good work.
