Sensuki Posted September 16, 2014 Posted September 16, 2014 (edited) Thanks to Liston from RPGCodex for showing me how to do this:Here is a mod that gives you 16 inventory slots per character http://www.upload.ee...CSharp.rar.htmlThe bug with the looting UI has been fixed. Installation instructions: Backup your X:\Steam\steamapps\common\Pillars of Eternity - Public Beta\PillarsOfEternity_Data\Managed\Assembly-CSharp.dll Copy the modified Assembly-CSharp.dll into the same folder Run the game Enjoy Notes: Will not be compatible with the next patch (will have to make a new one every time) this is a pretty bad way to mod, but we have no WeiDu equivalent atm Edited September 17, 2014 by Gfted1 Updated mod download link. 19
PrimeHydra Posted September 16, 2014 Posted September 16, 2014 (edited) That looks so much better! 16-slot inventory is much more at home in PoE's otherwise very Baldur's Gate/Icewind Dale UI aesthetic. I never understood why they cut the inventories down--except maybe to fit all party members on one screen?

Sensuki Posted September 16, 2014 Author Posted September 16, 2014 Design decision, perhaps if this mod is popular then they may reinstate it. The number of slots isn't the only issue with the inventory, but this should give people a sense of relief anyway. 1
PrimeHydra Posted September 16, 2014 Posted September 16, 2014 (edited) Design decision Right, I just wonder what it was based on, since it creates such a claustrophobic inventory feel. Edited September 16, 2014 by PrimeHydra Ask a fish head Anything you want to They won't answer (They can't talk)
Sensuki Posted September 16, 2014 Author Posted September 16, 2014 (edited) They want inventory to be "tactical" ... lol The small inventory combined with the stash actually creates more inventory management than was required in the IE games imo, and atm you can't drop anything from the inventory and they want you to inspect stuff on the ground before you pick it up No. Thankyou.is all I have to say to that. But yeah as I said, let me know if the mod works for you and if you think it's better than 8 slots. Edited September 16, 2014 by Sensuki 8
Gfted1 Posted September 16, 2014 Posted September 16, 2014 Awesome. Now get on those unlimited piles of sticks will ya? "I'm your biggest fan, Ill follow you until you love me, Papa"
Sensuki Posted September 16, 2014 Author Posted September 16, 2014 Yes I figured out how to do that, I can set it to 9999 for you if you like - I can do it right now!

Marceror Posted September 16, 2014 Posted September 16, 2014 This definitely shouldn't be a mod. Should be the standard configuration. 6 "Now to find a home for my other staff."My Project Eternity Interview with Adam Brennecke
Elerond Posted September 16, 2014 Posted September 16, 2014 They want inventory to be "tactical" ... lol I think reasons for limited always accessible inventory were strategic in nature, and limiting ability to change equipments in fight had tactical purpose. And reason for current version of inventory screen was that people asked ability to put items for certain characters. I would also guess that number of inventory slots that we have currently isn't meant to be final but instead limit inventory so that beta testers need to but items in stash so that its mechanics will be also tested in beta, even though beta has limited number items (or would have with out duplication bugs). 1
C2B Posted September 16, 2014 Posted September 16, 2014 (edited) This definitely shouldn't be a mod. Should be the standard configuration. It was 16 in the E3 demo. I doubt the current configuration is going to be the final number of inventory slots considering the beta reactions. Edited September 16, 2014 by C2B
Zed Posted September 16, 2014 Posted September 16, 2014 Now add combat XP JUST KIDDING actually -- do this. it will make the game better, just as this mod does. maybe we'll have a day-0 mod that fixes all the issues BG2 folk have with PoE. except the romance ****, of course. leave that to bodypillow-husbands.

Sensuki Posted September 16, 2014 Author Posted September 16, 2014 (edited) people asked ability to put items for certain characters. That was just Infinitron, really. I'm with Stun tbh, IWD2 inventory would have been perfect for a start, with some item filters and a sort button. Edited September 16, 2014 by Sensuki 4
Marceror Posted September 16, 2014 Posted September 16, 2014 I like the idea of a stash and all. Just don't see why adding a stash means character inventory gets thrown in the garbage. Would prefer both. 1 "Now to find a home for my other staff."My Project Eternity Interview with Adam Brennecke
Sensuki Posted September 16, 2014 Author Posted September 16, 2014 (edited) Stash is like the Bag of Holding - I like both as well. Edited September 16, 2014 by Sensuki
Seari Posted September 16, 2014 Posted September 16, 2014 It's funny how a simple thing makes the inventory go from complete **** to not that bad at all. 8 slots per character was just disgusting.
Kjaamor Posted September 16, 2014 Posted September 16, 2014 There is a definitely a market for this, so well done for giving the people what they want, but I can't deny being rather disappointed that this is likely to put further nails into the coffin of the PoE inventory system, which I happen to really like. I think it would be a definite overstatement to suggest that this mod will noticeably affect the balance of the game, but I worry that it sets a precedent for other mods that are popular concepts that serve to unbalance the core system. ...and we're back to the Enhanced Editions.

Sensuki Posted September 16, 2014 Author Posted September 16, 2014 (edited) "Mods will fix it" is not really the attitude to take though, but now at least you can actually see the difference between the two in the game. Campaign for change! I'm more concerned about how moving items around feels worse than the IE games. Obviously when the UI delay and stuff is fixed it will be a bit better but it's still the same amount of mouse clicks but more awkward to use IMO. Can you drag items onto the character 'paperdoll' ? edit: I will most definitely use a mod for infinite camping supplies, that **** is obnoxious.
