About this project

What does Backpacks for Dummies add?

A simple but immersive backpack mod

Backpacks for Dummies is a bare bones backpack mod without any extra keybinds, menus or slots. Backpacks can instead be placed down on the ground directly from your chestplate-slot. This means you can interact with them same as any container, allowing for quick swapping between several backpacks, and easy sharing between players. This mod also puts a great focus on immersion and gamefeel with some extra animated flair.
