Ported to 3.11

I ported Josh Mate's backpack mod to 3.11 and added the new backpacks that came with 0.16. Also its a direct download now instead of mediafire :)


I'll delete the mod if Josh Mate wants me to.


Original description:


Makes backpacks bigger in a balanced way

Josh Mate's Better Backpacks

Description

Makes Backpacks bigger while still staying in line with Vanilla gameplay balance based on price / rarity / weight


Changes

- All single grid backpacks have had their sizes increased by about 40%

- Boss bags (Birds eye radio / Sanitar / Partisan) have been made significantly larger to fit their boss status

- Bags with multiple grids were increased by less to prevent UI grid overlap issues

- The field medic bag had its item restrictions removed


How to Configure this mod

- All backpacks come pre-edited to new bigger but balanced sizes. Just install and play

- You can edit the values in Mod.ts to your liking

- Increasing bag sizes too much can cause UI grid over lap issues

- Increasing bag sizes on backpacks with multiple frame grids can cause UI issues


Installation

Move the mod's "user" folder into your SPT AKI folder that contains your user folder.

    Updated to 3.11, added new backpacks, has a direct download link compared to Josh Mate's link, and it has proper file structure so its drag and drop. :)

  • how do I download without showing up as notes instead of the folder?

  • this is phenomenal but i recommend also buffing the SATL a ton, it's 36 right now but huge compared to some of the others. Love it nonetheless, thanks!

    • Due to the layout of the SATL, you cant modify its size. Atleast, not with this mod.

    • bummer, but i appreciate the quick reply! I'm new to modding and SPT in general so pardon the ignorance!!

  • finally the game about looting stuff I can loot all the stuff, I was relying on RaidOverhaul's built in "make backpack bigger" but only worked on a very basic few backpacks, making a new 'meta' which felt bleh. Now everyones backpacks will be juicy. Thanks for the port/updates/fixes

  • Hi

    I don't know if it's just me or not. But there are some backpacks that are too big and go outside the limits of the character screen. If you want I can show you a screenshot on discord in mod issues. I don't know if I can show it here.

    • As far as I remember, the original author put the 6sh backpack at 6/12, whereas this mod puts it at 7/13, which is definitely going overboard. Just an example of one backpack I most definitely remember being at the max allowed size before things got wonky.

      You could either wait for Hauz to fix this, or just go into the mod.ts file yourself and edit the values to what the original mod had.

    • Fixed.
