Maybe I had such an idea. Only I don't remember why I left her 🤪

Can you consider adding tiered (and a little bigger) speciality backpacks too?

Like miners (for ore and stone), farmers (for plants and seeds... maybe some stuff like rot and compost), foragers (for mushrooms, flowers, and barries... maybe some random stuff), butchers (for animal corpses), bookbag (for books, scrolls, and papers).....  ect ect ect

SwedishFreaK
No, there will be no undyed skin. This will make backpacks cheaper in general.
For solo play, you can change this to whatever you want in the recipe config files.
For multiplayer, thanks to the team of developers who helped make this mod, the optimal version of the recipes was found.

UPD: version VS 1.19.7 tested whitch v.0.2.1 mod, no problem find.

Would it be possible to get also in a future update a config with not just capacity modification but also a easy way to change the recipe from dyed leather to just normal leather and so forth?

UA_Shaman

Yes everything is OK. that's just I am a little confused with your ranking, but it's subjective. I translated it as you described it, so don't matter ;)

Laerinok
Just look at the picture above for the description of the backpack slots.
Tall - 12 slots, base - 14.
As a conclusion, the base in my mod is more than the high. If everything is fine with your translation, I will add it in the next update. Thank you.

UA_Shaman

Hello, I am going to translate in french, but I am a little confused with two variants. In my mind a tall bag is bigger than a basic bag. But the basic one is made by upgrading the tall bag. So it is finally bigger.
I wanna be sure it was what you meant before sending my translation.

I will make an update for this version in the near future

Any chance to update the Hardcore version? Since it's just the number of slots I guess?

Morggin
Thanks, glad to hear that!😘

Thanks, this is a great mod!!🤠

Dr_Cummies
In the near future, I will still make a config that will allow you to adjust the number of slots and the color in backpacks, then the need for hard core mod will disappear.

Is the new 1.9 a hardcore patch or will there be one made for the hardcore version?

Medic8dGamer710
Thanks for the feedback, what do you mean by "other purposes"? Backpack slots are the amount of space in which you carry things and items. For example, there are only 3/4 slots in an ordinary wicker basket (depending on the version of the game)

I'm curious about the "slots" mentioned in the descriptions of the backpacks; are they purely cosmetic or do they serve some other purpose? 🤔

Either way, excellent mod, a definite must have!

JD2
It doesn't matter, you don't need it.

Was the small tweak/fix for 1.8 added to 1.7?

thanks for v0.1.7! thats exactly what I was looking for! Sp0wN

Bl0ckparty
Yes, in version 0.1.8 the size of backpacks has been returned to their previous size. Only version 0.1.7 is made for hardcore.

Is v0.1.8 still the old pack sizes or the new hardcore reduced sizes?

sweet thanks will do!

bringitonwimps
Can test version 0.1.7 hardcore, it is made for you)

Sp0wN

Thanks for the reply, I'll look into it.

Kessem
No, I don't plan to add sorting. This mod is already exists in Mod DB - Sortable Storage 

Is there a plan to add sorting option to the backpacks? they do get rather large and cumbersome to find stuff, lol :D.

Awesome, thanks!

bringitonwimps
If there is time, I will create a version for hardcore, as you ask 😈 I myself am a technical administrator of the server, so I understand what you want and for what 😅

would it be hard to make a "hard Version" where you just change the packs to satart at 6,7,8,9,10,11,12, i think there are 6 levels right?  i feel like in reality its more in line with the base game backpack steps.  not my mod so im just asking, no requirement.

thanks

bringitonwimps
Unfortunately, I do not know how to make such a configuration for the server yet. Need to learn C#. In the future, there are plans to make such a configuration. It will relate to the color and capacity of the backpacks.
1Helios
Dziękuję, bardzo miło jest czytać takie słowa.

is there a config yet to adjust bag sizes and or recipes?.. i care more about sizes as for my server and player count these bags progress to high.  nothing wrtong with it i just need a config if im gonna use it. otherwise really cool mod

Powiem tak. Super.  Dziękuję

SpacemanSpliff
I am very glad that you like it, I will be grateful for the feedback.

Awesome, really appreciate your work and your reply. I'll be starting up a 1.19 world fairly soon and will definitely help report any issues.

SpacemanSpliff
Of course, there are plans to move to 1.19. Only when a stable version will be released will there be development.

UPD: Tested the mod for 1.19 in a solo game, everything works without problems. Anyone who wants can help with the tests and post the result here. I will be grateful.

Love this mod, do you have plans to update to 1.19?

McJty
I do like this mod but I would love a little less insane version of this. The top backpacks really are WAAY over the top

Thank you very much, it's great to hear that you like the mod.
As you can see this mod is used on the multiplayer server, all the crafting has been edited over time, which has made it possible to arrive at a more or less normal crafting.
If you're playing a solo game, just change the backpack crafting to whatever you want to see.

1. If you change a tall leather one to a tall linen one you'll get 10 leather back(from 12 used) and you'll need to add 12 linen fabric right?
Yes you are right, exactly as you described
for a detailed understanding of the rework, I will add screenshots later.

Simple question, if you turn a leather backpack into a linen backpack you'll need the lines and you'll get back the leather of all the levels or just the level the backpack is rn? I meam:
1. If you change a tall leather one to a tall linen one you'll get 10 leather back(from 12 used) and you'll need to add 12 linen fabric right?
2. If you convert a basic leather one into a basic linen one you'll get back 20 leather(12 tall + 12 basic) and need 24 linen(12 tall + 12 basic) or you'll get back 10 leather(the basi one) and need 12 lines(the basic one too)?

Bladeorc7
I will not go into an excursion on scripting, if you remove the comma you are writing about, the game may issue errors. Also, all the code will not work correctly. Because you haven't finished the script. This is all that just one coma can lead to. If you play solo, then just remove the line with slotBgColor and only after that you can remove the comma. It should be something like this:

backpack: {
                 quantitySlots: 18
}

AFoxInAviators I had the same question, open the zip and go to itemtypes, then navigate until you are at the .json files for all the bags, then open it in notepad and remove the line with slotBgColor. Oh and im not sure if the comma at the end of quantity slots is neccessary or not but I removed it personally, i'm terrible at instructions but I hope this will help or at least be semi corherent.

Sp0wN I was suspecting that it won't be easy. Thanks for your advice, I'll go right there.

Hi Yanazake, thanks for the translation. I will definitely add it with the next update.

adres4t unfortunately, this is more a question for the game developers and not for the modders. Address this in the official Discord channel or on the forum. 

Made a pt-br (Brazilian Portuguese) translation of the mod~

Hey. Anyone knows how to resize the crafting window? I play with immersive mouse on and my inventory is opened all the time. when backpack slots fill the crafting screen to 40 slots, scrolling with the mouse scrolls the backpack instaead of the hotbar, and it's a big issue for me. I don't need more space but I would really like to get rid of that scroll bar or resize crafting window minimally to fit those last slots. Not sure where to look for config files or if it's even possible.Any info much appreciated. Cheers

AFoxInAviators
What version of the mod are you using? If it's old, then upgrade to the new one. The color cannot be turned off but has been redesigned in new versions. You can read exactly when in the changelogs

Is there any way to disable the colored aspect to backpack slots? The color messes with my eyes...

DanaCraluminum
you know better than anyone that I'm just learning. Therefore, I decided to do so for now. Until I gained skills and learned C.

You can use coding to convert old backpacks to new ones

DarkSlayerEX
Yes you're right. This morning I was preparing an update for the lights to work and discovered this fact. In the new update, the lights will already work. In the evening, I announced this in the developer's Discord channel. As it turned out, the game was also updated to 1.18.6, all on time)

@Sp0wN

According to the sourcecode for lantern clipons

[HarmonyPatch(typeof(EntityPlayer))]
[HarmonyPatch("LightHsv", MethodType.Getter)]
public class LanternClip
{
[HarmonyPrepare]
static bool Prepare()
{
return UsefulStuffConfig.Loaded.LanternClipOnEnabled;
}

[HarmonyPostfix]
static void Postfix(EntityPlayer __instance, ref byte[] __result)
{
IInventory backpack = __instance.Player?.InventoryManager.GetInventory(GlobalConstants.backpackInvClassName + "-" + __instance.PlayerUID);
if (backpack == null || backpack.Count < 5 || backpack[0].Itemstack?.Collectible.Code.Path.Contains("backpack") != true || backpack[4].Itemstack?.Collectible.Code.Path.Contains("lantern") != true) return;

byte[] clipon = backpack[4].Itemstack?.Block?.LightHsv;
if (clipon == null) return;

if (__result == null)
{
__result = clipon;
return;
}

float totalval = __result[2] + clipon[2];
float t = clipon[2] / totalval;

__result = new byte[]
{
(byte)(clipon[0] * t + __result[0] * (1-t)),
(byte)(clipon[1] * t + __result[1] * (1-t)),
Math.Max(clipon[2], __result[2])
};
}
}

I believe the issue with the leather backpacks not working is because you have them as   [size]leather

without being [size]leatherbackpack
IE:
code: "tallbackpack"
Vs 
code: "tallleather"

Risskitty

Thanks for the tip, fixed it with a fix today.

KitsuneLena
Unfortunately, my knowledge is still not enough to make lanterns that glow in leather backpacks, I know this problem and described it to the author of the mod useful staff. We are waiting for the result.

Thank you for changing the iron and steel lamellae to chains in the mega and ultra backpacks! I can creaft them now. 

However, for the basic leather backpack now, it requires molybdochalkos chain. Molybdochalkos chains can not be forged on an anvil and there is not a chain mold. So there is no way to make the basic leather backpack.

Thank you!

При работе с модом Юзефальстаф в кожаных рюкзаках не светятся фонари в первом слоте а в тканевых все работает

Thx for translate to Japanese - macoto_hino
This became known to me, so I fixed it in mod version 0.0.7. The lamellae were changed to metalchain. Thanks for the feedback - Kara

so.... for Mega leather backpack, my players are reporting, you can not Pour Iron into a mold, to create the "iron lamellae" items. 

i advise changing it to plates or scales rather then lamellae for iron and steel, for the time being. 
this applys to Mega Leather Backpack and Ultra Leather Backpack. 

I made a Japanese file, so please use it.😄

Sent via direct message to you, if you need any server logs, let me know

PeterSanderson

Thanks for the feedback. Yes,file client-main, client-debug and client-crash which are located in the folder AppData\Roaming\VintagestoryData\Logs. It will be good if you can drop them in Discord to me in private messages
Weird I have my own server with almost identical mods as yours, everything works fine.

Sorry, wish I could be of more help. Is there another log that might be of use to you? It's possible it is a mod interaction, but the issue vanished when the mod was removed. Perhaps someone in the mods Discord could help track the issue.

PeterSanderson

I'm sorry, I'm not a strong programmer, yet 😄, I don't see problems related to the mod. Do these errors happen regularly? Because it seems that this is a standard crash for the client 😰

Running on a modded 1.18.5 SMP server
I had a client crash the moment I attempted to search the gamemode 2 inventory
Hope the client log helps

Thank you, it is very nice to hear such words.

Thankyou so much for this type of mod! I feel like vanilla bag crafting is a bit too easy...Your doing gods work my friend.

DArkHekRoMaNT
Thanks, I have seen and am aware of this error. I am working on an update, I do not consider it necessary to download an incomplete version.

[Warning] [abcsreborn] Dependency 'game': Failed parsing version string '1.18.0, 1.18.1, 1.18.2, 1.18.3' at index 6: Expected PRE_RELEASE or BUILD_METADATA, found ',' (best guess: 1.18.0-1.18.11.18.21.18.3)

DeNoven
Thanks for the detailed description. I think you helped not only me but also other players. Yes, this is a problem, it is not possible to fix it, because without transition to 0.0.5 it is not possible to develop the mod further. So I apologize for some inconvenience! I hope further developments will bring only joy.

Did a little testing with 0.0.3 through 0.0.5;

• Going forward a version turns the backpacks from the previous versions into a flat white square, no inv, itemtype: ID
• The inventory is preserved but inaccessible - as chuckles says, this reverts ok when downgrading, inventory is still there.
• Newly created backpacks (post-upgrade) do not have this issue.

My advice for users seeing this is; dump your items into other containers. Swap to a future version, then dump the broken backpacks and either make new ones or spawn them via a quick change to creative via /gamemode

Hope this helps, Sp0wN!

Chuckles
Thanks, I didn't see that during the tests. I will make corrections as soon as possible. Fix, pls testing.

0.0.4 version changes existing Ultra backpacks into white flat squares, no inventory, with an itemtype: ID name

reverts ok, no permanent damage when downgrading to 0.0.3

Whiteindia
Thanks for the message, I'll try to fix it today 😌

Neoforerunner

I am very glad to hear such words, the main joy of a modder is to make users happy 😜

The in game description for both the mega and the ultra shows 20 slots.

Sp0wN Awesome ill add it back in and keep a note of it for everyone! I really appreciate the hardwork you put into this mod! I love it! 💙

Pabbley

Unfortunately, I did not test the lamp from the "still useful staff" mod, but I am in contact with the author of this mod.I think it can be fixed, thanks for the tip.

I had no problems yesterday during the tests on the server with a tall backpack. Are you playing solo or on a server? What mods do you use? Is it possible to view the crash log?

UPD: Just checked the operation of the lights, everything works. Backpacks are not crush the game. I tested everything in multiplayer.

What are the chances the mod 'still useful stuff' 's lantern clip feature is causing the crash?

Hey there, the moment I upgraded my minipack to a tallbackpack and equip it back on my game crashed, now I cannot log back in at all.

Yanazake I already use backpackplusplus my only problem with it is the largest size is not a backpack but a temporal something or other. And if it's not a backpack proper, it will not work with lantern clipping from useful stuff mod I was hoping to switch to this one, but it's just too easy makes me feel life I'm giving up a big chunk of game play. So for now I figure ill stick with plusplus and just run 3 temporal whatsits and one slightly smaller backpack, so I can clip my lantern.

Mendall
You can just go with Backpack Pack. It also has a nice progression, but it is certainly not an easy path.

I would like to see a version of this mod that was a lot more expensive. These bags are way overpowered(a good thing) but they're way to cheep. (a kinda bad thing) being this cheep means there is no progression, and it misses a chance to give the player more game to play by making him work for things more. I realize not everyone will want that so it's not a complaint, just an observation. Maybe make an option where some hard to get resources are required for the bigger ones, so we have a reason for an explore.

Tested a bit today what you described below. On our server, of all the reported problems, only the game crashes with the inability to log in again. It was necessary to restore the world from the backup - I will work on it! There is a problem with the horses, unfortunately I cannot protest. There are no problems with the display problem either. You most likely have a conflict with the mods you are using on the server.

Kapibarion

Thanks for the message, in theory the problem with horses does not apply to fashion with backpacks. Although everything can be. On the server I work on, the horses were completely removed, because there were a lot of problems with them. Little by little, I will solve the problems that have already been discovered, and thanks to you, we will improve the mod.

Hello Sp0wN,

Great mod! I wanted to add some observed problems, besides those already mentioned: while one of our players wearing the ultimate backpack had been invisible (only lantern was visible), I tried to fix it by rebooting the server. It resulted in something even worse: a few of my horses disappeared (some stayed) and also some sheeps, hens and pigs (but only part of them). I had to restore the server to previous save.

Despite those issues I hope to use this mod in future after they are fixed :)

Thank you!

bringitonwimps

I thought about it too, but I still don't know how to make a config that could be edited by the admin on the server. If possible, I will ask more knowledgeable fashionistas about it.

Neoforerunner

Thanks for the message, it means a lot to me. I'm an admin on the server myself, so this is really a problem. I even guess what the problem might be, I will prepare a fix. The failure is not on the server, but causes the client to crash. Please clarify this. The server will not break from this. By the way, after testing, it turns out that only one basic backpack leads to this. I will record! Thank you again.

i like this mod as well, what would be cool is if you make a back pack and add on "pouches" to the packs to add spaces.   regardless this is cool, but is there a way to have a config to adjust the slots?.. 24 slots feel to large, id reather have a smaller jump per bag on our server.  but i understand that others may not.  idk if there is an easy way to config that, or if its there already.  i havent added this yet to server as im a little worried about it being balanced.

I love the mod concept! I would love to see some of the bugs fixed! I know the Mini Backpacks makes me invisible to others and cause a floating item to the right! When moving backpacks to different slots cause a server wide crash loop which caused me to have to remove the mod! Other than that I think the mod works great but think everyone should be aware so they dont corrupt there game! I will def add it back if these get resolved!

Sp0wN

I had not seen Jobediah's original post where he explained his thought process when I posted earlier. It's very interesting and adds to my enjoyment and appreciation for this mod!

https://www.vintagestory.at/forums/topic/4004-the-abcs-of-nomad-mode-mod-the-advanced-backpack-construction-system-100/

@Yanazake this is quite an interesting idea, I'll make a note of it. Thank you.

this is pretty cool, and doesn't use metal for reinforcement :0 Can they be deconstructed to go back one stage and go up more stages? I'm not sure from the pictures which pack is used for the progression in some parts. Still a  great idea.

dakko just thought it would be better that way. Especially since I only recently started to understand fashion at least a little. All your comments are important to me. It helps to move forward. Thank you.

Why did you reduce the capacity of the Tall (11 slots to 10), Basic (14 slots to 12) and Super (17 slots to 16)?

Since the ingredients for each upgrade are consistent, it 'feels' (to me) as though increasing to Basic is an inefficient use of resources.

I was not aware of the earlier version of this mod and excited to try it out. Thank you for updating it and making it available!

Chuckles thanks for the feedback, I made a note in my notebook

Can the background color of the backpack slots be configured to the default? It's hard to see some items in purple/other colors
