But that expanded inventory is also a nice bonus.

If you’re looking for a sense of realism in your Minecraft gameplay then the Backpacks mod will do you right. There are instructions and other information at the mod website for your convenience. Holding the sneak button is actually important for accessing the backpack inventory even if you aren’t trying to move items between containers, so that’s a thing you might want to make a note of if you’re thinking of trying the Backpacks mod. If you hold down the sneak key, SHIFT by default, you can actually move items and equipment between your bag and any other chest or container you right click while sneaking. The Backpacks mod is more than just a way to carry a chest on your back too. While it does technically give the player another inventory window with 30 more slots of storage space to use, at least this mod makes players look like they’re carrying around bags loaded with stuff rather than just pulling it out of thin air.

While roaming around in Minecraft with a full inventory packed with stacks of blocks, food and items, where exactly do players store all of the stuff they’re carrying? Steve is just a regular guy with a shirt and some jeans, maybe 3 or 4 pockets max – there’s just a big gap in continuity here, you know? That’s why the Backpacks mod is so nice.
