About This File
SC4 Cleanitol is a modern implementation of the original BSC Cleanitol program released in 2013. This program provides an easy way to clean your plugins folder of all non SC4 related files making the game quicker to load, can remove out of date and obsolete plugins, and can tell you what dependencies you have and which dependencies you need for a given mod.
This new version is designed to be backwards compatible with old Cleanitol scripts, but nevertheless includes numerous improvements, with some of the major ones being:
- Ability to specify TGIs in addition to file names as a dependency. One of the drawbacks of using filenames only is if a user renames a file or datpacks their plugins folder, the old Cleanitol program will report a missing dependency even if that asset might actually be there.
-
Ability to specify conditional dependencies - i.e. only report
item Aas a dependency ifitem Bis present. This is very useful for mods which may allow the user to choose certain components to install. This way the user will not be prompted for a missing dependency for a component they did not install. - Ability to import rules from a web hosted text file - Fetching the rules from a web hosted text file can guarantee a user is always running the most up-to-date version of a script, especially if the script is regularly updated.
