Just a note for obsolete plugins: if the plugin is completely obsoleted, i.e., it should be uninstalled in favor of a different plugin, we should remove all it's other metadata besides location (e.g., tags, cleaning data).

NSFW warning for OSM

  - name: 'Sexual_Spriggan.esp'
    msg:
      - type: say
        content:
          - lang: en
            text: 'Obselete. Get Oblivion Sexualized Monsters.esm and OSM-All Genders.esp instead.'
          - lang: de
            text: 'Veraltet. Holen Sie sich stattdessen Oblivion Sexualized Monsters.esm und OSM-All Genders.esp.'

  - name: 'Sexual_Minotaur.esp'
    msg:
      - type: say
        content:
          - lang: en
            text: 'Obselete. Get Oblivion Sexualized Monsters.esm and OSM-All Genders.esp instead.'
          - lang: de

          - lang: de
            text: 'Veraltet. Holen Sie sich stattdessen Oblivion Sexualized Monsters.esm und OSM-All Genders.esp.'

These messages (and thus the plugins) can be removed alltogether, as they seem to be unlocatable (a Google search suggests that Sexual_Spriggan.esp was around in 2009 or earlier).

          - lang: de
            text: 'Alt, Updaten Sie zu ''Tyler''s Hungry, Thirsty, Sleepy, Tired.esp''.'

  - name: 'Addendum - Hungry.esp'
    msg:
      - type: say
        content:
          - lang: en
            text: 'Old, update to ''Tyler''s Hungry, Thirsty, Sleepy, Tired.esp''.'
          - lang: de
            text: 'Alt, Updaten Sie zu ''Tyler''s Hungry, Thirsty, Sleepy, Tired.esp''.'

          - lang: de
            text: 'Alt, Updaten Sie zu ''Tyler''s Hungry, Thirsty, Sleepy, Tired.esp''.'

  - name: 'Addendum - Thirsty.esp'
    msg:
      - type: say
        content:
          - lang: en
            text: 'Old, update to ''Tyler''s Hungry, Thirsty, Sleepy, Tired.esp''.'
          - lang: de
            text: 'Alt, Updaten Sie zu ''Tyler''s Hungry, Thirsty, Sleepy, Tired.esp''.'

These messages (and thus the plugins) can be removed alltogether, as they seem to be unlocatable. A Google search suggests that the plugins were around in 2008 and the recommended plugin Tyler's Hungry, Thirsty, Sleepy, Tired.esp was around in 2009. Removing these entries is the preferable way.

  - name: 'Comprehensive Style Collection RM.esp'
    msg:
      - type: say
        content:
          - lang: en
            text: 'Outdated. Update to latest version.'
          - lang: de
            text: 'Veraltet. Updaten Sie zur neuesten Version.'
    tag:
      - Eyes
      - Hair

This message (and thus the plugin) can be removed. It is gone from the Nexus, and while the latest version is uploaded on a private blog website, I don't trust the look of the website particularly (plus you need to wait 60s for the download, but the counter isn't counting down for me to begin with) and thus we will not link to it.

Answer 7 · 2021-04-23T14:44:17.000Z

  - name: 'Alternative Start v1.2.esp'
    msg:
      - type: say
        content:
          - lang: en
            text: 'Check to make sure you''re using v1.26 or later.'
          - lang: de
            text: 'Stellen Sie sicher das Sie v1.26 oder neuer nutzen.'

This entry can be removed, the plugin most likely was uploaded here. I think that this plugin name is the name for earlier versions of the mod, and sometime in 2007 or 2008 the plugin name was changed to Alternative Start by Robert Evrae.esp. The latter one is already featured in the masterlist, exactly above Alternative Start v1.2.esp, so there's no point in featuring this entry of a plugin that is long gone.

Answer 8 · 2021-04-23T15:27:26.000Z

LoversAdultPlay.esp
LoversSpringSale.esp
FUQ Land.esp
LoversFOV.esp
LoversLoser.esp
LoversVoiceSound.esp
LoversAfterVoice.esp
LoversStopCombat.esp

Those plugins will be removed alltogether. They are long gone, not to mention of concerning nature.

  - name: 'WestRoads-RiverEthe patch.esp'
    msg:
      - type: say
        content:
          - lang: en
            text: 'Obselete - update to West Roads version 1.3+.'
          - lang: de
            text: 'Veraltet - Updaten Sie zu West Roads Version 1.3+.'

I've found West Roads here, but couldn't find RiverEthe, nor the patch for these two plugins. They seem long gone, so this plugin can be removed as well.

  - name: 'VeronaHouseBloodlines-LushWoodlands fix.esp'
    msg:
      - type: say
        content:
          - lang: en
            text: 'Obsolete if using Lush Woodlands 1.3 or higher.'
          - lang: de
            text: 'Veraltet wenn Lush Woodlands 1.3 oder neuer genutzt wird.'

This entry can be replaced with:

  - name: 'VeronaHouseBloodlines-LushWoodlands fix.esp'
    url: [ 'https://www.nexusmods.com/oblivion/mods/14601' ]
    msg:
      - <<: *obsolete
        condition: 'file("xulLushWoodlands.esp")'

xulLushWoodlands.esp comes from Unique Landscapes - The Great Forest - Lush Woodland. Every file in the "old file" section is v1.3+, and the current main file is v2.0.1, so the condition should suffice.

  - name: 'VeronaHouseBloodlines-UL patches Merged.esp'
    msg:
      - type: say
        content:
          - lang: en
            text: 'Outdated. Update the affected UL mods and then delete this patch.'
          - lang: de
            text: 'Veraltet. Updaten Sie die betroffenen UL Mods und löschen Sie dann diesen Patch.'

This plugins seems unlocatable, so it can be removed.

            text: 'Veraltet, Sie können zu Supreme Magicka 0.89b+ updaten und ''zzSMConfigurationQuest.bNoPoisonLevitationEffects'' zu 1 setzen in der ini für das selbe Resultat.'

Can be replaced with:

    url: [ 'https://www.nexusmods.com/oblivion/mods/12466' ]
    msg: [ *obsolete ]

  - name: 'DS Alchemy Pouch.esp'
    msg:
      - type: say
        content:
          - lang: en
            text: 'Outdated. Upgrade to Portable Sorters.'
          - lang: de
            text: 'Veraltet. Upgraden Sie zu Portable Sorters.'

This entry can be removed. I've found on the modpage of Portable Sorters this explanation:

Formerly Alchemy Pouch, Portable Sorters provides all the features of the previous mod plus sorters for potions and scrolls.

So this modpage is likely the place where the plugin was once uploaded to. Since it isn't provided anylonger, we can remove the plugin.

  - name: 'DarkUI Fix.esp'
    msg:
      - type: say
        content:
          - lang: en
            text: 'Old file. Not needed with DarkUI''d DarN 1.5.5 or newer.'
          - lang: de
            text: 'Alte Datei. Nicht benötigt mit DarkUI''d DarN 1.5.5 oder neuer.'

This entry can be removed. On DarkUId DarN the mod description reads:

1.4.5

Removed need for DarkUI Fix.esp. If you use it, you can now delete it and suffer no consequences. YAY!

Version 1.6 is the only available version and it was uploaded in 2009. No one will still use DarkUI Fix.esp.

          - lang: de
            text: 'Veraltet wenn Ancient Redwoods 1.6 oder neuer genutzt wird.'

I can't find this patch plugin anywhere. Version 1.6 of Unique Landscapes - The Great Forest - Ancient Redwoods
(xulAncientRedwoods.esp) was uploaded in May 2009, current version is 2.0.1. This entry can therefore safely be removed.

          - lang: de
            text: 'Veraltet - Updaten Sie zu Version 2.2.1 von BladeOfTheHaunted.esp, dann deaktivieren/entfernen Sie diese esp.'

The Blade of the Haunted - A Sword Quest

Version 2.2.1 of BladeOfTheHaunted.esp was uploaded in June 2011 and is itself long outdated. In 2013 the current version 3.1 was released.

It's safe to assume that BladeOfTheHaunted_UL_ImperialIsle_Patch.esp is no longer used by anyone and I also cannot find it anywhere, therefore remove this entry.
