Tiered Backpack System with Upgrades for Spigot & Paper

[​font=courier new]1.14 — 1.21+[​/font] · Custom Textures · Upgradeable · 3D Models · CuriosPaper Addon

[plugin] ProbablyBackpacks - CuriosPaper Minecraft Mod [plugin] ProbablyBackpacks - CuriosPaper Minecraft Mod [plugin] ProbablyBackpacks - CuriosPaper Minecraft Mod

Leather · Copper · Iron · Gold · Diamond · Netherite



Think of it as Sophisticated Backpacks — but for Paper & Spigot, with 3D models, rich upgrades, and a seamless accessory integration.


✦ ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ✦


✦ What is Probably Backpacks? ✦

Probably Backpacks adds a complete tiered backpack system to your Minecraft server. Players craft backpacks from Leather all the way up to Netherite — each tier offering more storage and more upgrade slots.

Backpacks are equipped in the CuriosPaper Back slot and are visible on the player's back as a 3D model! This plugin is a CuriosPaper addon, hooking into the accessory system to provide a seamless experience with custom textures, real-time dyeing, and a powerful upgrade system.

⚠️ IMPORTANT: This plugin requires CuriosPaper to function!
