BackpacksRemastered
Backpacks
BackpacksRemastered adds -- well -- backpacks, to Minecraft, the catch being without the use of any client-side modifications. Completely vanilla backpacks! This plugin was the first of its kind due to the fact that it adds backpacks as an ItemStack
that will persist its inventory even without the plugin installed! Backpacks also allows you to inspect the NBT data of items which is handy for getting an under-the-hood look at how the game works.
Features
- Large version compatibility - Adaptable NMS solution currently supporting back to MC1.12 via a single plugin jar. Even if a version isn't explicitly stated as being supported, give it a try. It may still work.
- NBT Data Storage - Backpack data is stored in that item's NBT data (the same way Minecraft stores data about enchantments). This means you don't have to worry about databases, configs, or anything like that. You can even backup the world and all of the backpack's contents will be backed up with it.
- Fully functioning backpack item - Backpacks from this plugin are just like backpacks from a mod. They can be traded, destroyed, cloned, etc.
- Different backpack types - This plugin introduces many different backpack types that extend far beyond just simply storage. Check them out under the crafting section of this page.
- Highly customizable - Almost every aspect of the backpacks is customizable, including the crafting recipe! So if you don't like the default recipes, change them to something you do.
- Multilingual support - Backpacks uses a proprietary automatic translation system known as i18nExtractor in its build chain. This means that you can automatically translate Backpacks into ANY language supported by Google Translate. See the GitHub about building Backpacks in your language.

Backpacks may be removed from their combined item using the /bp split command.

Installation
The installation is literally just drag and drop, so if you are used to installing plugins, you shouldn't have to read this next part.
- Locate your "plugins" folder which is located in your servers home folder.
- Drop the downloaded .jar file into the plugins folder.
- Run the server once to complete the installation!
- NOTE: Backpacks will create some files. Do NOT delete or modify these files unless you know what you are doing. You could mess up someones backpack.
Showcases
NOTE: This tutorial is of a much older version of backpacks. ITS NOT EVEN REMOTELY THE SAME.
Known Bugs
See the open issues here for a list of known bugs.
10-19-2022: I changed the project name from Backpacks -> BackpacksRemastered because bukkit had a bug where I couldn't update the project settings for the longest due to conflicting legacy projects by the same name (you used to be able to do that). Anyhow, its better this way.
In reply to Melle_ME1:

In reply to Forge_User_96360882:
Material names changed from 1.12->1.13. You have to change the values listed here in the config to the their 1.12 counterparts. This is what the /bp materials command is for.

Thank you now all work well
Using Spigot. Everything seems installed OK. I'm an op. Can create backpacks, put, put them on but can't seem to access them. Probably missing something simple. Couldn't find any docs about how to access them. Thanks in advance.
In reply to heshigger:
The backpack key?
Is there a way to take backpacks out of combined backpacks?
In reply to EzE_THA_ASSASSIN:
/bp split <slotnum>
In reply to drew6017:
Awesome thanks!
I was using Backpacks-0.1.3 with my Spigot 1.13 installation. I just upgraded that to 1.14.4, but none of the BackpacksRemastered are working. I can create the backpack but I cannot access it. Also, did the directory structure / contents change? The only contents of BackpackRemastered is config.yml. Even created backpacks do not show up in there. How do I convert / upgrade my existing backpacks to the current version of BackpacksRemastered?
In the past, when BackpacksRemastered first came out, I had to disable the automatic upgrade because that was the only way to keep a functional backpacks plugin. Am I doing something wrong with my config?
In reply to superjem:
Hello, BackpacksRemastered is HIGHLY different (a completely new plugin with similar functionality) from the original Backpacks plugin and stores it's data in the world save instead of a separate file structure. Devising a means to upgrade backpacks (while possible) is not worth the development time. If you desperately need this, the project is open source, and I would be happy to accept a pull.
I would advise you inform players to remove items from their previous backpacks, upgrade to the latest BackpacksRemastered version, and go forth from there.
Hello, I somehow got a backpack key stuck inside a backpack by misclicking a number key while hovering over the key with the backpack open. I can make another key but I can't get the original key out. Any suggestions?
In reply to mooncaroon:
Make a new backpack? I will make it so backpack keys can be removed but not put into backpacks in the next update. This should have been impossible though lol.
Can i Enchant The BackPacks?
In reply to RealTech:
Yes, you can also combine them with armor/elytra in a crafting grid.
How do I link the blue backpack to the lake?
