Housing Ideas and Feature Requests

I'd like an actual futon with tabletop attribute someday, but for now it's possible to make your own pseudo-futon by clipping a bed into Round Oriental Table:

Yes I did see this when surfing the web a short time ago. You know what's really crazy is that the person who I saw do this actually created a whole flooring with those tables! it was pretty awesome I have to admit! Only problem is that I didn't see that till after I did my room and I am reluctant to redo the whole room for that... and only using a piece wont quite work for my layout. But still brainstorming!

P.S. Your layout is very nice

Yeah, I would love to create a large flooring area too, but it eats up too much item slot. Which is why I raised a requested for a raised platform + more tabletop attribute thread elsewhere, but it doesn't seem to attract as much attention as I'd hope for...

Thanks! :3

First of all, let me say I absolutely adore the fall additions that were made!! The ginko and maple trees and leaf piles are delightful! Though I was thinking you could also do a remodel of the flowering cherry in a rustic brown so as to keep the tree -shape-, but have it shedding lovely fall leaves like the other two for those who wish to change the look of their yard seasonally. Perhaps a "raked leaves" item which is an actual pile of leaves? You could make it so characters can glitch into it. That'd be half of the fun, actually. "Jumping in" and hiding in the leaf pile! Maybe you could involve the terrain motion detection that makes characters' feet kick up dust and grass, only have it kick up leaves whenever they move around in it? Just a thought!

Going into winter, I'd love to see more decorations available for this time of season as well. As mentioned before, I adore the idea of being able to change out the yard seasonally, which is hard when there are no "winter trees" other than the Starlight evergreen ones. Maybe do some naked tree limb models, slap some "snow" and icecicles on the branches and have them shed snowflakes at-random like the fall/cherry blossom trees do? I would also suggest "snow piles" if my suggestion below wouldn't be feasible .

We have lupine patches and sunflower patches... maybe poinsettia patches in a red or white option? -- https://media-cdn.tripadvisor.com/me...full-bloom.jpg Maybe crocuses... or even some new kind of "winter blooming" flower creation by the dev team which blossoms out of a patch of snow?

Maybe release the existing tree forms, but in snow covered options? Snow-covered cherry tree/ginko tree/maple tree/shroud broadleaf/desert ironwood/island palm? Take what is already there, but add snow to it so that people can acquire or even purchase a version of these items which helps to give their living space a more seasonal feel that isn't necessarily related -only- to a holiday. (speaking of, I'd recommend this idea for "fall versions" of these same items.)

Lastly and perhaps a more difficult possibility but since we get to customize SO MUCH about our housing, would it be at all possible to even customize the grounds of our homes? Maybe have the "standard" which already exists for each plot, but just as you can change the floor of a room, you could change your lawn. Examples: floral ground for "spring", rich green grass with occasional yellow dandelions for "summer", leaf-strewn for "fall" and a partial or completely snowy look for "winter".

You can edit the post to go beyond the subpar 1000 char initial post limit. I'd also suggest visiting the website suggestion forum and digging through for the 1000 char limit thread and popping a like on it. Everyone gets annoyed by it, but Square needs to know enough people want it adjusted/removed.

As for your suggestions I'm always for more trees and a ground change. I think both have been posted multiple times before, but I like the suggestions and hope they act on them eventually. They're probably more inclined to act on changes to the inside at the moment though given how they've pushed apartments as a solution to the housing problem and those don't have a yard. Just keep hoping for more seasonal plant life (hopefully not attached to events) and some scenery adjustments!

Oh yeah, I get that screenshots or player uploaded content would be way too much to manage, that's why it would be all in-game like the character creation screen, or using the hairdresser guy. If it's the same character creation stuff they already have in game, this would prevent people from doing obscene or otherwise inappropriate stuff. You'd just pick full body or bust, select the face and hair and coloring and other stuff like you're creating a new character, and bingo presto, a new picture to hang on a wall.

Not sure if you saw the new update but you're getting your wish. Npc artists will be making a wide variety of paintings and you will have a wider selections based on your sightseeing log.

You need to limit houses on an account basis. Everything added is just content not accessible to other people because there are greedy people with like 7+ houses on your servers. It's stupid. SE's continued incompetence on this issue is unacceptable.

The biggest issue is they made it impossible to share your house and stuff with any Alts. So people with multiple characters buy multiple houses. It would be so much easier if they made the house account bound with a limit of 1 per server so all your alts for that server could use it.

Since we are getting more painting now, can I request for Edda's portrait please? The white ghost Edda from tam tara hm and black death-god Edda from palace of the dead. And a bonus third portrait with both black and white Edda together! 5 Gelmorran Potsherd each sounds like a fair price imo. :3

[SokiYagami]

No love for Edda anyone? T-T
