[GUIDE p4.1] Housing Glitches : Placing (almost) everything (almost) everywhere!

[PrincessAlice]

I can 100% confirm that troupe stages and a majority of nontable items such as partition, mounted bookcases (the entire wall types), etc. can still be placed in the positions to create lofts prior to 4.2. It takes a large bit of creativity. I will not post here how it is done as to preserve this method as long as possible.

You realize the only reason the old method was fixed was because everyone was abusing placing things in the negative space outside the house zone, right? There's no reason to hide this method anymore as you're unable to put anything in the negative zone now and it will just bounce back into the house.

As for Elamys's method, I managed to reproduce it and made a video demonstrating how to do it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hjvRNS_ODd4 Be sure to read the video description.

I haven't tested it after 4.2, but basically you have to take an item (any item) and place it on a flat surface like window top, stair pillar, etc, and use the quick swap method.

I'm not sure why anyone would want to hide this method to make their house special. If that's the reason you are doing it, then your creations aren't that impressive and only hinge on a trick and not actual creativity and design.

Could you elaborate on this quick swap method please?
