Hey there,
I have finally finished rewriting and adding stuff to my addon for BTW, including two types of bags and backpacks.
I tried to balance the costs with the benefits of every type of bag and my result is as follows:
Crafting
To start with this addon you have to craft a simple bag. Sounds easy right?
-only 10 items per slot
-only 2 slots
For your next step you can craft a bagpack.
-the maximum stacksize is 32 items
But there is more!
First a sturdier type of bag with a special feature when combined with the next type of bagpack, but more of that later:
Now to the last type of backpack, the sturdy backpack:
All bags and backpacks used in the recipes will carry over their attributes to the crafting result, so you will have the same inventory on the bags and backpacks as before, just with upgraded types. If you use colored bags in the crafting recipe for the backpack, only the left bag will cary over its color to the bagpack, so be aware of that.
The extra feature
If you look at the inventory of the sturdy backpack, you might notice two extra slots:
If you put two of them in there, the inventory will extend and look like this:
The slots save independently, so you can take the bags out of the backpack any time you like, and they will still contain the items you put in them whilst they were inside the backpack.
I might add some more types of bags for those slots, one of them might even contain a enderchest in its recipe, we will see.
Coloring
Every backpack and bag can be colored by dyes. Coloring a bag or backpack requires two pieces of dye, placed around the item like this:
Naming
Just like in the old version, backpacks and bags can be named by simply pressing shift (or the button you have assigned to sneaking) and rightclick.

Old Versions:
1.1c: http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?gxxzxxg2cux8nci <--- no crafting recipes in this one -.-"
1.1b: http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?r9ddqmocm8bos4b
1.1a: http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?ee2pu3wb8i3jkd9
1.0: http://www.mediafire.com/?b58463f1bg6c926
I tried to fix this, but did not come to any solution. If somebody has one, I would gladly hear it.
Other than that, no bugs known
A small sidenote on downward compatibility:
The backpacks will convert to a simple backpack.
Basically I have two versions, one requiring BTW because of the recipe it uses, the other one is fully vanilla.
Backpacks are crafted like this:
They have to be colored at crafting, every dye works:
Rightclicking opens the inventory:
Since I aimed for this mod to work (almost) the same as the one mentioned above, you can also press shift and rightclick to name your backpack:
This is my first mod, so my goal was to write something functional that wasnt a set of Obsidian Armor.
