Gunny Sack
By: Ssenkrad

Requires: FOSE Version 1.1 beta8 (http://fose.silverlock.org/)

Version 1.1:
Fixed so that the Gunny Sack will not be automatically added until the Player has finished the Character Generation Quests and left Vault 101.

Version 1.2:
Fixed the weight of the Gunny Sack being reset to 0.1 when the game was restarted.

Version 1.3:
Fixed an ownership issue when dropping the Gunny Sack in some cells.

The Gunny Sack is a portable container that you can place anywhere, and stash items to retrieve later. You can also use it to hold all the clutter in your inventory that you don't need immediate access to, but still need to keep it with you.

It is not a cheat, or "bag of holding". It's weight will be the equivalent of the combined weight of the items it contains.

There is only one Gunny Sack for you in this version. More could possibly be made available, and if there is enough interest in having more than one at a time, I'll consider making it so. The Gunny Sack will be automatically added to the Miscellaneous tab on your PipBoy the first time you play the game with the mod activated. It was done this way for simplicity. If I add more Gunny Sacks later, I'll put them on a couple vendors for you to buy... they're just burlap sacks, so they'll be pretty cheap.

To use the Gunny Sack, drop it from your inventory (right click it). You can use the "Grab" key to move it to where ever you want to put it. When you're ready to open it, activate it as you would any other container. A menu will display. Select "Place the Gunny Sack" to turn the mobile item into a stationary container.

Activate the container and new menu will display. Select "Open the Gunny Sack" to open it and transfer your items. Select "Pick up the Gunny Sack" to return it to your inventory. It will weigh as much as whatever items it contains.

Install:
Download and install the latest version of FOSE from http://fose.silverlock.org/. Read the FOSE readme file.
Copy the contents of the Data folder in this archive to your Fallout3\Data folder. Activate GunnySack.ESP in whatever mod manager you use, and be sure to always launch Fallout3 with the fose_loader.exe as explained in the fose_readme.txt.

Uninstall:
Remove any items from the Gunny Sack (make absolutely sure it is empty, anything in it will be gone forever), save your game and exit Fallout3.
Disable GunnySack.ESP, and delete it.
Delete the "Meshes\Ssenkrad\GunnySack" folder.

All credit for this mod goes to the people at the BGSForums who have tolerated my many (and maybe sometimes ridiculous) questions. Without the answers they gave me, I wouldn't have been able to make this.

Please contact me at the BGSForums (http://www.bethsoft.com/bgsforums/) with any questions or requests. My handle there is Ssenkrad.

Have fun!
