Explorer’s Kit 1.4.0 - Release Changelog

Added

• Added visible equipped backpacks on the player’s back through the Explorer Gear system.
• Added new 3D backpack models for all backpack tiers.
• Backpack size now scales by tier:
  • Basic Backpack is the smallest.
  • Iron, Gold and Diamond progressively increase in size.
  • Netherite Backpack is the largest and most robust.
• Added an improved Camping Bed model with a clearer low-profile bedroll style.

Improved

• Improved Camping Bed visuals with:
  • Raised pillow.
  • Rolled blanket shape.
  • Side rolls.
  • Straps and buckle details.
  • Better low-to-the-ground camping appearance.
• Improved backpack visuals so they no longer look like flat item sprites when equipped.
• Improved HUD and minimap readability by adding black text outlines.
• Improved waypoint/minimap text visibility when looking at bright backgrounds like the sky.

Fixed

• Fixed poor readability of white HUD/minimap text in bright environments.
• Adjusted waypoint/minimap text presentation for cleaner visibility.
• Kept Camping Bed behavior intact: it skips the night without changing the player’s respawn point.

Notes

• This update focuses on visual polish and player readability.
• No gameplay-breaking changes were made to backpack inventories, waypoints, minimap logic or camping bed sleep behavior.
