@YetiChow

If you ever want help developing the story (or someone to throw ideas of ever-increasing complexity and ridiculousness at you until something sticks), I’d be happy to make my ramblings available.

thanks for the offer mate

@YetiChow

However, I read that as “I don’t see a way to make the awesome story I’m imagining work within the currently available options for a campaign mod”… in which case, I can only hope that the options you need get rolled out soon and that you find both the time, resources and motivation to make it happen.

hmm…don’t have time to go into great detail about it right now, but its not necessarily that the game doesn’t have the needed modding options, but a bit more of “the story i have set up could almost be a game of its own”.

@YetiChow

If the story you’ve developed is anywhere near the same level as the models, I reckon you’d have an amazing contribution here.

to be honest, i personally don’t think the story is that amazing… then again, i’ve never thought my templar models were quite worth the praise they’ve gotten, so…

@BarbeQ

Does this sound fitting and lorefriendly to you, @8BitCrab?

haha, not quite, but good guess anyways

so based on discussion in this thread,

Mod Suggestion: Backpacks

Hi guys. I was wondering if backpacks could be implemented in the game. One of the hearthlings important job is to haul things from place to place, but sometimes they just can’t carry enough so they have to go back again and haul it. Just like as quivers are to archers, but instead of giving different projectile effects, it will give a hearthling a much larger inventory space. ( Not sure if this possible but…) I searched some images of backpacks in Google, here are some example…

i made few models, though really they are mainly just edits to existing stonehearth models.

Tier 1 worker packpack
i decided the original backpack was a bit larger than i wanted, so i made this second version, however i then realized it made sense to have multiple tiers to backpacks.

Tier 2 worker backpack
only thing different from the design i originally showed is colors, i found the orange-brown just didn’t fit the worker outfit that well.

wheelbarrow
there was also talk of wheelbarrows in the other thread, so i decided to try my hand at making one. while i don’t think it’s terrible, there’s definitely lots of room for improvement on this one.

that’s it for now guys, hope you like it

Very simplistic, I love the detail in these, like the iron used on the wheel for the wheelbarrow. Nice work.

[Geokhan]

It took me a moment to realize that you were modeling backpacks, At first I thought is was some sort of new potato mob.

[BarbeQ]

Very cool designs. I think they fit the overall Sh designs quite well. But might I suggest that you try to use some more contrasted colors for the upper part of the backpack (the one indicating the cover/latch).

That was my first attempt with qubicle constructor and blender:

Never finished the animation though, cause it doesn’t fit into the stonehearth art-style

So cute! Want! Ahhh!

[Stmpnk]

Awesome backpacks ! Can’t wait to let my workers haul with them .
Gotta love that wheelbarrow too, I can just imagine my hearthlings riding them on a 90 degree steep hill…

Well, I tried what you would consider just a “minion”

If you (or other readers) want to try some crabs… You know, there is a certain biome mod laying around that would really benefit from them, just saying.

Hey Kitty, that’s actually really close to what I have right now, so I must be on the right track (I’m just waiting for a21 to release the mod)

8bit, I hope you like your 3d friends.
