yyz's backpack
by yyz729
yyz's backpack adds a portable storage item that can be opened from crafting tables, chests, furnaces and other containers without leaving the screen.
What it does
The backpack keeps its items in a separate inventory. Players open it from within other container screens, move stacks in and out, and run crafting using materials stored inside, with the recipe book supported. Auto collect sends newly picked-up items into a full backpack, and a backpack model can appear on the player when it is equipped.
The mod is open source under the MIT License and is published for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge across the 1.18 – 26.2 range. Client and server both need it, so every player on a server that runs it must install it too. Backpack storage changed in the latest release, so empty any backpack before upgrading or its items will be lost. The mod is required by yyz's backpack compat.
Files exist for 25 release versions, with the latest Fabric and NeoForge builds targeting 26.2 and the latest Forge build targeting 1.20.1, all marked as beta. Released 2025-06-10 and last updated 2026-09-28, the project publishes its source code and issue tracker.
Key features
Access from other screens
The backpack contents appear directly on container screens, so items can be moved without switching windows.
Crafting from storage
Recipes can use items held in the backpack, with recipe book support and click quick fill.
Dyeable backpacks
A backpack can be dyed the same way as leather armour to change its colour.
Auto collect
When the inventory is full, newly obtained items go automatically into the backpack.
Encumbrance effect
Carrying several backpacks at once applies a Heavy effect that lowers movement speed and jump height.

Use cases
Long crafting sessions
