I have made a little patch to remove the red "This Asset is Deprecated" cubes from Tamriel Rebuilt! I felt those cubes looked annoying and detracted from immersion. The patch removes the deprecated items from the game world and container and NPC inventories, but does not actually delete them from the game data. It just makes it impossible for those items to appear in the game world unless you cheat them in with the console. There are two ESP files available of which you should only use one. Please use "mainland" if you only use Mainland. Use "preview" if you run both Mainland and Preview.
I think I got everything, but if you see any more of the annoying red cubes please let me know where so I can update the patch. I will also update these files whenever there is a new TR release.

There shouldn't be any deprecated cubes in the mainland if both Data and Mainland are updated. Were there a lot? If so, it might be an older version. If there were only a a couple, they might've been missed, though that's unlikely. Could you check if it's the latest version and post a report in the bugtracker if you find any more? Thanks! It's cool that you're doing this, though! It'll be nice for preview.
Take care!!

My TR is up to date and there were quite a few red deprecation cubes.

There shouldn't be any, could you head over to the discord and report where they are? If there were quite a few, something might be wrong on your end. Still, troubleshooting/error catching on our part'll be faster on discord.
Take care!!

I was doing a flyover of the Redoran lands in the west and saw a ton of the red cubes. I had removed all the cubes with a title field so it seems some of the cubes are statics. Now I have to go back through the entire list of statics, which don't have a name field to discover which ones are red cubes and remove them. I'm just going to wait for the next release and do this more thorough cleaning of preview then as there are hundreds if not thousands of unnamed statics in the object list and I only want to have to go through it once or twice a year (though every time after the first will be easier as I can keep a list of which items to eliminate.) There wouldn't be any deprecated statics in mainland so the removal of deprecated named objects should be good enough for the mainland patch.

After inspection of my various setup environments, I realized I had been running an older version of TR. I updated and after the update discovered that in current release TR, there are no red cube objects in Mainland. I'm still going to run ahead and try to clean up the current version of Preview though, it will be nice for those who are exploring the ghost areas.
