Overview
Big Leather Backpack contains two (2) terrific backpacks (large and small) in two (2) different textures (brown and black). This page contains three mods:
  • Main mod distributes and equip one (1) random backpack to all NPCs (ActorTypeNPC). The distributed backpack will be some combination of large or small, and either brown or black (2x2). The main mod will always calculate its random distribution based on the two (2) sizes and two (2) textures no matter how distribution is configured (e.g., female, male, level, faction, voicetype, etc.). 
  • Two optional files distribute the large or small backpacks (respectively) to all NPCs. Please note that the optional files will randomly distribute the brown or black textures. Users can delete textures that they do not want. Optional files can be used together to increase NPC granularity. No need to even use the Main file. All files are standalone. Please see caveat below if you use both optional files. 

Compatibility
Highly compatible with most setups, and with most other mods. 
  • Spell Perk Item Distributor (SPID) does not edit levelled lists, and does not modify or generate new records. 
  • Body slots, however, are not compatible. Choose wisely, or edit the body slot. I will not alter body slots.
  • Clipping will likely occur depending on setup. I will not resolve clipping issues.

Installation and Uninstallation
Use the mod manager of your choice to install. Or manually. To uninstall, remove with mod manager. My understanding is that SPID will not impact save games in any way. Safe to uninstall at anytime. 

Configuration
Huge number of configuration options available. Please see Article for more information.

Caveats, Recommendations, and Extensions
  • Fully standalone. Does not require the original mod. The very generous permissions by hideto84 have made this possible. Be sure to thank hideto84 and endorse Big Leather Backpack
  • Children will not equip backpacks
  • Please see helpful video on the original mod page - Big Leather Backpack - for carry weight instructions
  • Images in this mod are for illustration purposes only. Your NPCs will receive a random backpack
  • If using more than one file, xEdit will show mesh and texture conflicts. This is expected. The original mod shares mesh and textures across backpacks. Scripts, however, should not show a conflict (let me know if they do!)  
  • Backpacks are reasonably priced, but you might edit the values in xEdit in order to not bloat your economy
