    Spinet Playlist

    Hello,

    We had previously announced that the following 11 songs could be played from the spinet, but it turns out that the songs in red were not actually included on the playlist.
    • Ronfaure
    • Selbina
    • Fighters of the Crystal
    • A New Horizon - Tavnazian Archipelago
    • Ragnarok
    • Autumn Footfalls
    • Main Theme - FINAL FANTASY XI Version
    • Luck of the Mog
    • Feast of the Ladies
    • Abyssea - Scarlet Skies, Shadowed Plain
    • Melodies Errant

    Instead, the below 2 songs were included on the playlist:
    • Clash of Standards
    • Echoes of Creation

    During the next version update, we will add the 2 songs in red from the list above, and you will be able to select from a total of 13 songs.

    would be nice if we could lock the songs so that everytime we enter it would play the song we selected last.

    Okipuit:

    I have a few issues with the Spinet and the Orchestrion I'd like to bring to the dev team's attention.

    First, when you have the Orchestrion installed, the spinet stops randomly selecting a track when you enter the mog house, and instead you have to manually select your tune every single time you enter. This is really frustrating!

    Perhaps when both items are installed it could be changed in one of the following ways:
    -Retain random functionality for spinet songs when the Orchestrion is installed.
    -Retain random functionality and expand it to the Orchestrion tracklist in addition to the spinet list.
    -Allow your last music selection to be retained so it loads the last thing you picked every time you enter the mog house.

    Second, when you have the Orchestrion installed, the control panel for it is RIGHT next to the door! This causes it to be inadvertently auto-targeted when I am trying to leave my mog house, and I get stuck in an "npc cutscene" that I can't just cancel out of with the cancel button. Is there any way to move this over by the fireplace or in the same position as the orchestrion itself, not right next to the door?

    I was hoping that it would just be an option in the list when you talk to your Mog. or even something in the Layout option when selecting it. like how Equip is an option when moving you mannequin. Adding something else in the MH to select just bugs me, its not like we select our plants and checking them by clicking them, its in the menu.

    Greetings!

    Thanks for all the feedback regarding the Orchestrion and the Spinet.

    -Allow your last music selection to be retained so it loads the last thing you picked every time you enter the mog house.
    Currently, since there are certain effects from the complex Mog House system’s special specs, we’ve made it so the songs reset upon re-entry for safety reasons. (Compared to the Spinet, which plays songs randomly, having information saved and then loaded is a bit more difficult.) However, we will see if there is any way to do this.

    Starting out the amount of songs is somewhat low at the moment, but we created the Orchestrion with a key item system in place so that we can add more and more songs. With that said, we will be increasing the number of songs that can be obtained in the future.

    We are still deciding if these new songs will be obtained via events, quests, or NPCs, but we would like to provide fun ways to collect and listen to a variety of songs.

    Please have songs obtainable for beating whole expansions, such as having Distant Worlds available for beating CoP (unlocked with a miniquest of course... perhaps the Bards of Vana'diel could enlighten us as to how to obtain the music?).

    This a thousand times. A bunch of quests / miniquests and your new Key Item gets added to a "Sheet Music" section under your key item menu. Like they've done with Abyssea, Voidwatch and Claim Slips.

    I'm aware that your response is a copy/paste from the Japanese forum. If you could get the dev team to somehow acknowledge/respond to my first 2 suggestions regarding the random song functionality (since this is already IN the game) I would appreciate it.

    If you so badly want the spinet to play a random song when you enter.. simple solution is to take the orchestrion out. Problem solved!

    I 100% agree with tamarsamar.. I much prefer it now how I can enter my mh without fear of hearing abyssea music blaring... and I can simply select one of the other songs if i am going to be in mh for longer than a min

    As I stand looking out from my mog house window, I reminisce about the old days and the many ups and downs of my adventures throughout Vana'diel.

    It is then that I know achievement.
