    Menu Descriptions:

    NOTE: There is a vanilla bug where if you slot your gears with a Pyerog or Tvarog Runes (DON'T DO THIS!), your gears will turn to common quality (regardless of what quality it was before). Several of its tags will also go haywire. This mod will remove those gears, regardless of filters, if you sell them to any merchant.

    Enable Mod: ON = turn mod on. OFF = turn mod off and ignore all settings below. Merchants will behave like vanilla when OFF.

    Clear Crap Armors: ON = clear all crap armors, based on the filters described below.

    Clear Crap Weapons: ON = clear all crap weapons, based on the filters described below. OFF = keep all weapons, including crossbows.

    Clear Crap Crossbows: ON = clear all crossbows that are considered "crappy quality" (item quality that is < the quality value set by qualityFilter below). Clear Crap Weapons toggle must also be ON for this to work. And, ignore level filter. OFF = keep all crossbows, regardless of quality or level.

    Gears Quality: Clear gears that are LOWER quality than the color set. Green = witcher, orange = relic, etc. Gray and white quality are treated as common. For example, setting the quality to Orange will clear white, blue, and yellow gears. Also, green (witcher) gears will ALWAYS be kept since it is the highest quality.

    Level Filter:  ON = use level filter. OFF = don't use level filter.

    Level Filter Range: Set the range for level filter to use. For example, if Geralt is level 50 and you set a range value to 10, then it will clear gears level 1-40, if they meet the Gears Quality filter condition.

    Enhanced Gears Filter: ON = clear gears that have been slotted with runes or glyphs, if they meet the Quality and Level filters conditions. OFF = do NOT clear Enhanced gears, regardless of other filters.

    Enchanted Gears Filter: ON = clear gears that have been slotted with Runewords or Glyphwords, if they meet the Quality and Level filters conditions. OFF = do NOT clear Enchanted gears,
