Filter Envelope Weights
This compound sets small weight residuals to zero in order to simplify tabular editing
in the weight editor. Includes tuning options like falloff for 'close candidates'
and a choice of the modulation method.

More on Weights - Merge, Filter, Smooth compounds
Here are some compounds I created while working a character. I really like the ease of ICE when it comes down to solve these kind of issues when the stock tools aren't enough, whithout making me run into hardcore scripting.
EnvelopeWeightsPerDeformer can be a nag in that when setting it and the reference to the envelope weight fails it resets some nodes like rescale which I use a lot. Basically breaks the compound.
Had that kill me some hours of work after saving the compound not knowing it was broken So be advise there could be a need to re-import the compound at times.
Cheers
PS: updated the SmootWeight compound and video section of it.

Re: More on Weights - Merge, Filter, Smooth compounds
I guess no one noticed but I had 2 versions of smooth weight in the attachments and the MergeEnvelopes was missing. Anyways, fixed.

Thanks for uploading - these are very useful. ICE is often a good alternative for something that one would first think of using scripts for.
