    I'm a hoarder and not everyone might agree to this, but how do you guys feel about the max slots per tab being upped to 96 (the max limit) instead of the limit of 52? More isn't always better, but in this case I think it is. I could be wrong, though, since it's far from v62 GMS-like.

    What I meant was create a new item and add it as any other item into the cash shop which would bypass the whole issue. (later versions added this anyway in live maple)

    I don't think v62 can handle item inventory upgrades as an item, and I am unsure if the packet would even handle it correctly if it goes past the limit created by Neckson. Yes, it can be done in a hackish way (like other servers do), but I am not really a fan of that. I also think the only slot I consider increasing would be ETC, since the rest makes the game easier, which is unnecessary and proven unnecessary.

    The limit set at 52 is client sided and has no real effect in stopping you from getting more slots other than blacking out the button which allows you to buy more.
    It can be added as a cs item, not sure if it requires client altering, but really it shouldn't since the functionality for adding slots already exists from the existing options.
    Doesn't really make the game easier or harder it's more of a quality of life change.

    Whats wrong with what it is now, just make a mule if you dont have space and if you "need" everything in your inventory then you are managing it wrong.

    I agree that using a 'hacky' way to implement slot expansions takes away from the server, but if it is done in an extremely tasteful way, I don't necessarily believe it is a bad thing.

    You could still implement custom NPCs that 'feel' GMS-like, in spaces or maps that are empty with no real use. For example, there's a map going to Helios Tower that's just completely useless (unless I'm missing something) that could be used for this example.

    Instead of straight out buying expansions from the NPC with mesos/NX, mayhaps you can implement a custom quest line that makes it so you have to earn the expansions (a new quest for each expansion)?

    To make it fair, if the quest involves item collection, maybe you could make those items unique or untradable so nobody can cheat.

    If it is done in this way, you could make it a gradual progression so it is not as fast to earn upgrades either.

    I wonder how in the heck this is "not possible". Clearly the clients are more than capable of handling up to 25 inventory rows. And we already have a feature in the cash shop which can expand inventory. It should be simple enough to make sure the server data structures allocate enough memory for 100 inventory slots, and to hex edit the client to enable buying up to 100 slots.

    It's not possible by default because at 48 (?) slots the option to buy more slots greys out in the Cash Shop (if you want to have fun removing that check from the client, be my guest). Adding a custom item in the Cash Shop and add some proper handling for slot expansion is possible, and definitely the least hacky way of adding it that comes to mind.

    Would say though, this makes hermits a little more convenient if use slots can be increased as well. Not that I would particularly mind, but just something to be aware of.

    Thank you guys so much for the open communication on this idea, first of all.

    Secondly, I agree that really only the ETC tab needs extra expansion (I can live with a max of 52 for the other tabs). I would love to hear more disagreements on the matter if anybody else really opposes it.

    I've never dropped any of the one time quest rewards like the sand bandits sign and florina beach ticket and didn't get to a point where I had to get rid of "essentials" (ores/warp items things like that).

    Just make sure you're not doing too many quests at once or carry around useless ores and such. Once you're done with your quests you'll have leftover slots, I had around 8 leftover at that point.

    There's not much to say against more slots other than having to invest time for a little convenience.

    Also quests are supposed to make you suffer ;)
