Latest release (for Vintage Story 1.19.8 - 1.22.2, potentially outdated):
rackableplates_1.0.0.zip 1-click install
The mod allows one to place metal plates on vertical racks. Unfortunately, they do not have the right proportions to look properly slotted in, but they look good enough. It could be possible to make a more advanced version of this mod by either modifying the plate model, or making a separate plate rack, but I am busy and suck at modelling so this is as far as I'm willing to go for now.

Still works in 1.22 :)
Does this work on 1.22?
Are you planning on updating this one?
Silly question, would you be able to do this for paintings? I'd make one, but the visual on the rack is beyond what I have done before.

Yeah, it took some trial and error, but I got you.
Don't scale the plates, they lean to the side:
Scale the plates bigger, they sit straight in the rack:
jayu Ahh that's a bummer... I don't know if the scale allows separate parameters for each axis? Or maybe you can tilt the plates a bit so they look like they are leaning on each other. But that's going to be a lot of trial and error 😥
AmethystZhou their shape isn't correctly proportioned for the rack so if you enlarge them they still don't look right
I think you can go to the metal plates JSON file and tweak the "onmoldrackTransform" attribute to enlarge the plate models while they are in the rack:
"moldrackable": true,
"onmoldrackTransform": { "rotation": { "z": 90 }, "scale": XXX},
oh hey!
This is cool!
What a wonderful idea; this should be vanilla
After all, in early versions they wern't just for tool molds; you could put the percurser to "Tuning cylinders" on them. I still have a save somewhere where there are tuning cylinders still stuck in a mold rack :P
umbrage should thank
Tian_Huo then XD
Edit: on multiple lines because the comment seems to hate me tagging two people on the same line...
Fantastic idea. Great way to flex all the extra plates you have in stock. I'll be lining the workshop walls with these.
didnt know i need this till i saw it
