Boom. 90 slot inventory. Just follow the directions carefully and take your time. Don't rush it. Its pretty straight-forward and doesn't need you to manually edit any xml files yourself. You just have to drag-and-drop files where it tells you to.

Thats just a popup. Close it, pay it no mind. When you click the download button on the zippshare page it should automatically begin downloading the zip file.

If you really can't get the link to work for you here is a dropbox link:

Issue the first: You die, you lose EVERYTHING that doesn't fit in a regualr sized backpack. All the extra slots, gone. All your armour and things in your belt, gone. As in deleted.

Change to where you die you lose whats on your tool belt only

Swapped over to a different mod that comes bundled with the Craftworx mod. Now no issues. Not dropping everything is cheating, doncha know. ;)

That is likely because the loot.xml was not modified to increase the storage size of the player-dropped backpack.

<!-- player dropped backpacks, they only destroy on close when they are empty -->
<lootcontainer id="41" count="0,1" size="5,10" destroy_on_close="true" sound_open="UseActions/open_backpack" sound_close="UseActions/close_backpack" open_time="1" loot_quality_template="baseTemplate">
<item name="cobweb" count="1,2" prob="0.01"/>
</lootcontainer>

Increase the size. Currently its 5,10 which means its a 5x10 grid. I don't know how big you'd need to make it to cover everything in the backpack. You have ot factor in that it has to be able to hold your inventory, your toolbelt and all the items you're wearing. So it will have ot be quite large given that the mod you're using adds, what, 90 inventory slots?

Hey Val, I just followed directions as they were written here, I figured that bit was taken care of in the install ;)

The author of the 90 slot backpack did not include a loot.xml.

The valmod tells me to disable EAC before launching the game. As I only want to use this for single player. What happens when I want to play online? Do I have to remove the mod? Will EAC ban me or will it just block the mod? Cheers.

[Valmar]

Bigger backpack does not functional with EAC enabled. If you want to play online you will have to either join a server that doesnt have EAC enabled or get back the vanilla Assembly-Sharp.dll file. I dont think EAC will ban you it, it willl just stop you from joining the server.

[Valmar]

In relation to my 45 slot mod: Yes, it works on a server. However you have to manually swap out for the right Assembly-CSharp.dll file in the 7DaysToDie_Data\Managed folder. On servers I believe even the this directory is different, as its called 7DaysToDieServer_Data or something.

More hassle for the server to get right but it can be done.

However, far as I know, the players will need to also install it (They need the "normal" version, not the server-specific file so install is easier for them) and everyone, server included, needs to have EAC disabled.
