Anyone have any experience using this mod with the xSkills mod?

1. Inside your VS install directory, go to ...\assets\survival\entities
2. Open item.json in a text editor, and chenge the despawn time to your liking. It must be given in seconds. Save and close.
3. Run modmaker.exe inside the VS install directory. Wait and follow the instructions until complete.
4. Open item.json again, and change the value back to the default 600. Save and close.

You now have a mod that changes your item despawn time to the value you want. It is likely already where it needs to be, and you'll be able to activate it from the mod manager in the game's main menu.

If you suffer from performance issues when running that mod - well, redram already explained why But in singleplayer it should be okay, so long as you don't choose an utterly ridiculous value.

If you just want to keep your stuff from despawning when you die, by the way, it would be way easier and less problem-prone to just set /worldconfig deathPunishment keep instead of fiddling with despawn times.

I don't know if this has changed since Oct 2021 or if you mistyped. I found the item.json file at: "Vintagestory\assets\game\entities\item.json"

It seems to be the same on a server install too.

There is a file at the path you describe called "label-paper-item.json" but not sure what that is.
