Done Dragon Backpack is bugged / Bound armor with sigils in it not working

Huh, 2 reports in a single thread, am I allowed to make this? eh, who knows

First of all, the Dragon Backpack is said to give Strength 2 when worn, however, when I try to kill something, for say, with a 21.75 damage sword, I only deal like 3 damage, and anything with lower damage wont do anything to any mob

Spoiler: Done - Bound Armor

Second, I made some bound armor with sigils in it, and they are not working at all, no speed buff, no plants growing faster, and I still take fall damage. Even with the full set

Video on the Armor (I have the Sigil of Haste on the Leggings, they are not working)

(Had to remake cause some people can peak at the base coords)

Video on the Dragon Backpack (Surprise Dark Beast attack at 0:36)

 

So, after talking with Moltair on the server, they helped me with the Bound Armor part, saying I would need some weak blood shards to get the sigils to work

So I'll be editing the post with the Bound Armor problem in a spoiler

 

Did you read about the backpack just in case mate

 

"This backpack has the ability to give the Player the potion effects: Fire Resistance, Regeneration, Strength II, and Water Breathing protection while wearing it."
~Adventure Backpack (Dragon) - Feed The Beast Wiki

That what is says, some of the buffs works, but not strength

 

Strange, is something cancling out the backpack?

 

No idea

In the video, I was wearing nothing but the backpack, and had nothing that would affect it

 

You sure the pack creators didn't disable the effects?

 

If they did, I would be doing the normal sword damage

And the other effects like regen works still

 

I did some testing for this one, too. All using a diamond sword and zombies, although the effects shouldn't differ between swords/mobs.

Test 1: Diamond sword, no buffs.

9 damage dealt.

Test 2: Diamond sword, Strength 1 potion.

16 damage dealt.

Test 3: Diamond sword, Strength 2 potion.

1-hit kill.

Test 4: Diamond sword, Dragon Backpack.

No damage dealt.

Test 5: Diamond sword, Strength 2 potion + Dragon backpack (Strength potion can be applied before or after putting on the backpack, for no change. Dragon backpack does not override Strength potions of any sort.)

1-hit kill.

Since Adventure Backpacks is open-source, I'll have a look at the code to see if I can find out what's causing this.

 

the real question is, why do u have a map and i dont?! are we allowed to have a mapmod? if so why dont we add it to the mod in the launcher as an optional thing?

 

I just added it in myself, its called JourneyMap

 

Just tested with only Adventure Backpacks installed, still dealing no damage. It looks like the issue is caused by the application of -5 strength, which seems to be unintentional, since the regen effect is also applied with a strength of -5, and works normally.

 

x_Samm_x told me they are fixing the bug with the backpack and should be updated here shortly

 

Last commit to that repository was in 2015, unless there's another major fork I'm missing.

 

I'm not sure when it will be updated, but that is what x_Samm_x told me

 

One of the mod developers were on last night and @x_Samm_x talked to them about that strength buff not working. today I got a msg from the same dev that the issue has been fixed so when there is an update there will be a fix for that.

 

It's fixed. Releases · runescapejon/AdventureBackpack2 · GitHub

Ok, apparently not.
