stackmemore is the only one I can find that's regularly updated, but it does nerf weight making it a bit too OP, especially with the bullet stacks too

Its a question like "What is the best color?". Defie your preferences, and then we can answer.



Personally I prefer Small Resource Stacks AB, because it does not alter the weight of the items just makes bigger stack size.

99% of the stacks mods makes you a walking warehouse because the decrease the item weight what is too cheety for my taste. They make weigh stat pointless, hauler dinos pointless, teamwork in grinding pointless. Because you can do it alone. But again, it is a question of preference.

My vote is for stackmemore, the reduced weights are a godsend, it makes it so you don't have a dino train[especially with the current ai] to get resources, I remember the days of having a quetz train to the volcano and back to my base on west beach, now i only have to deal with one slow quetzel.

It comes down to personal preferance. How big of a stack size you want, reduced weight etc.

This one is a rebalance of the default stack sizes, default weight apart from a couple of items an is updated regularly.

I was about to ask the same question as the OP however I too want a mod which does not alter weight, just the stack amount. Many thanks for this bud!

For those that are still searching for a stacking mod that can keep vanilla weight, try this mod. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1333158793

If you just want a higher Stack without altering the Weight just use the Game.ini either with a GlobalMultiplier:
ItemStackSizeMultiplier=5.000000

or with an individual configured Game.ini via (for example):
ConfigOverrideItemMaxQuantity=(ItemClassString="PrimalItemResource_Clay_C",Quantity=(MaxItemQuantity=1000,bIgnoreMultiplier=true))

I like stackmemore because you can customize everything via ini, including uploadability - which is more customization than WC options allow.

Want bigger/smaller stack sizes? Done.
Want them to weigh more/less? Done.
Want to transfer element? Done.
Want to prevent transfer of stone? Done.
No need to swap stack mods, just tweak and play.

...but it does alter things a bit by default so you would have to adjust it to meet your criteria.

I wanted to try and stay as vanilla as possible, so I used this one for a while. Only works with items with spoil timers.

Another one I've used is this...

I like Hulk's mods. I used to use StackMeMore but I had a number of issues with other mods not recognising it's items for their crafting requirements in a way that could not be fixed by config code. One of those mod authors looked into StackMeMore and told me that the coding for it was badly ordered, with many items not being in their proper catagories or set up as child items of their correct resource tree, hence the reason it couldn't be fixed in the normal way.

I have had a similar issue with Hulk's mods, with some items not being recognised by mod crafting recipes. But it happens much less frequently in the case of those mods, and for them it was easy to rectify with a simple crafting code tweak.

I've used the HG mods previously and currently using Ultra stacks.

all posted above. HG is more balanced. Ultra works well with mods and such... but it really is fairly OP. The fact that organic poly and prime meat stacks so high is pretty op in itself... but the weight reductions are also pretty high. If I recall... I can carry like 1000 raw metal on me without being burdened.... or a couple thousand wood. My argent can carry 10s of thousands of resources. Its that op.
