Housing Ideas and Feature Requests

[MsParis]

Please give us the option to "preview" dye colors before dyeing exterior and interior fixtures/furniture!

I'd also love to have some of the decor/furniture/interior walls/floors from the "Ceremony of Eternal Bonding." Even just the flowers/plants or walls would be nice.

Greetings,

We previously mentioned a jukebox like furnishing called the Orchestrion, and this is finally confirmed for Patch 3.2. This furnishing will allow players to change the music inside the inn, housing, and personal chambers by collecting sheet music.

Since we made the announcement, our friends over in Japan received some questions related to this item, so I wanted to share this information with everyone.

Q: It mentioned that players would need to collect sheet music, does this mean that everyone who would like to listen to that music inside the house needs to have the sheet music as well, or would it play that specific music for everyone as long as the person who set the music has the sheet music?

The music played by the orchestrion can be heard by all players inside the house. However, since private chambers and the workshop are different areas, it will not apply to players who are in these areas.

Q: Will the sheet music play an actual music, or just sound effects?

Unlike the current existing musical instrument furnishings, this feature will change the BGM itself.

Will there be a way to change the music in the workshop as well?
I spend a lot of time there so changing the music would be nice.

So, I know we'll be using this to play XIV music, and hopefully that includes 1.0 tracks (I will literally throw a tantrum if Twilight over Thanalan is not available, I'm warning you now), but question;

Would it be at all possible to include music from other Final Fantasy titles? There's probably some issue with doing something like that, but damn I'd love to have stuff like Rose of May playing in my house... Final Fantasy has a wealth of music for your to cash in on with the Orchestrion, would be a shame not to. Heck, collecting the entire Final Fantasy IX OST would become my endgame if this was done...

Oh please SE please say yes! I'd do anything to get 1.0 music or XI music. 1.0 was just awesome and I spent so much time in Bastok (XI) back in the day I still hum it now and then. And I will join the tantrum throwing for sure :O

Will this item work in the outdoor housing area?

Will this item work in the outdoor housing area?

Pretty sure the answer is no. Since it doesn't work in the private rooms and the workshop, it is likely only changing the BGM of the instance that your house is.
The outdoor area is not instanced but shared with everyone on the map, so...^^
