Convenient Inventory aims at speeding up inventory management by giving the player many additional features:

1.) Move|Drop|Craft -- single items|stacks of items|all items of the same type -- with a single mouse click.

2.) Sort your inventory and chests based on item ids.

3.) The key + mouse button combinations for (almost) all these actions can be remapped to whatever fits your gaming style.

4.) Everything works in multiplayer.

Configuration:


The standard combinations (in case you didn't change the text-file) for Key + Mouse-Button are:


Left Mouse: Pick up a stack

Right Mouse: Split a stack

CTRL + Left Mouse: Move 1 item

CTRL + Right Mouse: Move 1 item to an empty slot

SHIFT + Left Mouse: Move 1 stack

SHIFT + Right Mouse: Move 1 stack to an empty slot

ALT + Left Mouse: Move all items of the same type

ALT + Right Mouse: Move all items of the same type to empty slots

Q + Left Mouse: Drop 1 item

Q + Right Mouse: Drop item stack

SHIFT + Q + Left Mouse: Drop all items of the same type

Middle Mouse: Sort inventory


(The "move x" actions also work for crafting, e.g. if you want to craft a full stack.)


1|2|3|4|5|6|7|8|9 + Left Mouse*: Move the item to the corresponding slot in the action bar

0 + Left Mouse*: move the item to an empty place in your action bar

(these combinations can't be changed)


To change combinations, open the "mod_ConvenientInventory.txt" file, read the text inside it, then edit the corresponding lines. If you delete a line, that action simply won't be available anymore (therefore you can safely remove everything you are not going to use anyway).

Troubleshooting:


Q: My ALT-Key seems to be stuck!

A: This is a bug in Minecraft itself that I can't fix. Tapping the ALT key once may "unstuck" it. Alternatively you can either remap the commands to no longer use the ALT key or play in windowed mode (the bug appears mostly when playing fullscreen).


Q: I don't have a middle mouse button (e.g. Mac)!

A: Edit the configuration to not use the middle mouse button but something else instead.


Q: I want to use this mod in combination with Too Many Items, how?

A: Only copy the ConvenientInventory.class file into your minecraft.jar. Too Many Items will find it and make it work together.


Q: I want to use this mod in combination with Zombe's modpack, how?

A: Edit zombe's modpack config file and deactivate the "craft mod"/"craft all key" feature. Then just install ConvenientInventory, overwriting (if necessary) files of zombe's mod. There should be no problems after that.


Q: My screen is just black when I start Minecraft!

A: You most likely forgot to remove the META.INF folder from inside the minecraft.jar.


Q: I installed the mod, but it doesn't do anything at all!

A: Open your minecraft.jar and check if the .class files are really in there. Always restart the game after changing the config file (completely close minecraft, not only logout).


Q: It still doesn't work!

A: You probably encountered a strange bug that I never could reproduce, therefore don't know how to fix. Some players report that completely removing the .minecraft folder (!!!!make backups of - at least - your saves and stats-folders, but also stuff of other mods first!!!!) and then installing everything again fixed their problem.

Important: If you want to use TMI, install TMI, then only copy the "ConvenientInventory.class" file into the minecraft.jar (you must not use the other .class file in that case, or you'll lose TMI). If you don't know what TMI is, take a look here: http://www.minecraft...p?f=25&t=152174. It is a very cool ingame inventory editor.
