About this mod
This mod removes configuration items and spells from various mods and provides alternative way of configuring them with LINK++.

Before LINK era, many mods were using special configuration items and spells that they were adding to player's inventory via scripts on game start. For me personally this greatly breaks immersion. When I open my inventory, I only want to see items that my character has and nothing else. When I open my spells book, I only want to see actual spells that my character learned, and not some utility trash that reminds me I'm playing a modded game. Instead, I'm opening my inventory after game start and seeing a dozens of items, more then half of them aren't actually real items at all! And even for non-configuration items: how tf am I supposed to have them, I'm in damn prison!
Do you catch what I mean? Ever wanted to start a new game on your heavily modded Oblivion and see this?

Well, now you can! Sadly, it's not that good with spells, since many mods add spells that don't fall neither under "real true spells" category nor under "settings" category. Good examples would be whistle, feign death and some lovers stuff. But I have plans on dealing with them later as well, but with different approach.
This mod consists of following components:
- Filter patch that removes configuration items from various mods
- Plugin for adding LINK++ configuration menus for those mods.
- INI Tweaks that will prevent some mods from adding starting items for mods that support that through configuration.
Currently supported mods:
- Unofficial Oblivion Patch v3.5.7 - included in filter patch, partial LINK++ support.
- Unofficial Shivering Isles Patch v1.6.0 - included in filter patch, full LINK++ support.
- COBL v1.74 - included in filter patch, partial LINK++ support.
- Lovers with PK v1.4.1 - included in filter patch, only add/remove items in LINK++ menu.

* Full LINK++ support means that all configurations that were available with configuration items and spells can be done within LINK++'s menu, partial support means that some configurations will require you to obtain configuration item/spell through LINK++ menu and use them, only add/remove items means that no settings were ported to LINK++ menu, but you can use LINK++ menu to obtain those items again and remove them later.

Make sure to apply INI tweaks at the end if you've selected any:

Note that if you'll install CIBFilterPatch mid playthrough, configuration items already added to your inventory will not be removed. I may change that in future. You can still manually remove them via LINK++ menu if you have CIBLppSupport installed, and they will not be added again.
Other than that, where shouldn't be any incompatibilities.
- Add support for more mods with configuration items/spells and starting items.
- Improve menus for existing mods, implement full support of all configurations.
- Deal with fake spells (spells that are not spells, but also aren't configurations). Will probably come in separate mod with framework.
- OBSE team and llde in particular for maintaining xOBSE.
- All supported mod's authors for their work.
