Hey, im not 100% sure someone didn't mention something like this. But because i didn't find it on forum i wanted to suggest adding keyring for all that super important keys and other simmilar stuff.
Instead to inventory it would be added there so we won't missplace it

    I love this idea. A key takes up as much room as a Great Sword. Hrm... Big key, right, Boo?

    Very good idea.

    There is a mod for BG2 which does this which I never play without. It would be much appreciated.

    Sorry, I just noticed this after saying the same thing elsewhere :)

    Makes sense for BG2, but as I also said elsewhere (:P @Dougie) there are what, two keys in BG1?

    I was also thinking about other simmilar items like wardstones. But maybe even some quest items, so we won't sell or throw them away by mistake.

    Bag of Holding?

    Theres no bag of holding in bg1. An inventory tab with quest items which you cant throw away or sell or/and a keyring.

    For me, it's this.

    Makes no sense you can't sell "Gorion's Scroll" from the ambush area, which is a story related item, but you *can* sell Marrianne's husband's letter that you get south of Beregost, which is an actual quest item. Same thing for items like Perdue's short sword, which looks exactly like a regular short sword and can be vendored.

    Yes, this feature would be so much more convenient in BG2. It was one of those mods I could not play BG2 without.

    Just what I wanted to say. There's a thread which discusses this problem with quest items. Some of them are not even necessary, but you still don't want to throw them away (want to keep them as a reminder, reread old letters, idk). SO if there would be some special space for these stuff outside your inventory, it would be cool.

    If it's too much to ask, a simple bag of holding in BG1 would do the trick as well :)

    A keyring would be nice for areas that require many keys with no opportunity to dump stuff elsewhere. But alot of times if I wanted to hold onto stuff, but it served no purpose for a quest n' such (i.e. letters) I would just use the closest chest to the door of my stronghold or a chest in an inn/store I stop at regularly.

    No one here has used BG1 Tweaks (or BG2 Tweaks if you're on Tutu/BGT/BGEE)?

    http://www.gibberlings3.net/bg2tweaks/

    Already has implemented most of what you ask for:
    - Sellable items (can finally do something with those pointless letters etc.)
    - Add bags of holding (and other such containers)

    A special container just for quest items might be hard to implement, since there is not a special item type for quest items (and bags are restricted to the item types you can put in them). But having a separate container you can put such items in should solve that (and thus the Tweak should address it).

    Or... Just delete keys that are used? There's really no need to keep them.

    If implemented, a keyring is one of those items that you should just get for free. I'm not going to buy one with the hope that I'll stumble onto a key somewhere, especially in BG1 where keys are rarer. Keys should come with keyrings. When you pick up your first key, a keyring appears in your inventory.

    This crossed my mind as well; a "party treasure" page. A separate page that contains quest items that all players have access to.

    It would be nice to have a folder in your diary maybe, where you could store all leters, notes etc.
