Nemo's Backpacks
Description
As the name suggests, Nemo’s Backpacks adds backpacks to Minecraft. I know there are plenty of backpack mods out there, but I wanted to create my own vanilla-style take on them.
With Nemo’s Backpacks you get:
- 17 colors – all 16 dye variants plus a neutral default design
- 6 materials, each offering a different size:
- Default → 9 slots
- Copper → 18 slots
- Iron → 27 slots
- Gold → 36 slots
- Diamond → 45 slots
- Netherite → 54 slots
Backpacks can be upgraded using Upgrade Smithing Templates, which can be found throughout the world. Upgrades must be applied step by step – you can’t skip directly to higher tiers!
For more details and upgrade template locations, check out the wiki.
Configuration
Configs are saved under config/nemos_backpacks.json.
