Limitation of usable items in the house

[Eckelein]

Hey community,
Hey developers,

since SE gave us customizable walls for the houses the things with the limitation just got more real. We totally like them and we really want to use them but the limitation just makes it useless.

Are you willing to remove/raise the limitation? Or is there a technical limitation?
If so, would it be possible to make walls usable and unuseable while they getting placed?

I. e. i place the wall, decorate it, then go to the housing menu and make it unusable so it doesnt count in the limitations?

Not gonna cry about it, but i bought gold walls from the mogry store for 42,- € to decorate the walls with, and since a big house has so much room we used them a lot, not knowing about the limitation since its not written anywhere in the game.

Now stuff just randomly disappears - i can't be the only one who isnt amused about this limitation, am i?

This is the main reason I will never use those walls. The fact they're invisible to me until I run right up to them is frustrating. I already have enough items that are invisible because of the limit ( the toy statues, the crafting tables, paintings, musical instruments, NPCs, company chest, armoire, planter pots, flower vases, and countless lamps / other decor ). I feel like the limit has to be super super low.... ( does anyone have an exact number? ) Because I don't feel like I even have that many interactive items but its a persistent problem.

Think the limitation that was mentioned was 40. If there is a technical factor to it, I really think SE should put a hard cap on the items and make players pick and choose what they actually want to display. Otherwise, yeah, being able to change the state of a useable/interactable item into a non-interactive one would be nice.

Yes the limit is 40.

You can probably get away with slightly higher depending on your setup, but there's really no guarantees. It doesn't choose what to load based on proximity or based on line of sight, so there's really no telling what is going to load or not. I'm at 43 items I believe, and I don't have any issue with invisible items, because the extra ones load before I can see them, but if I add 1-3 more then one of my partitions starts disappearing.

They are wonderful furnishings and I'm so happy to have them! But please do address the issue of them disappearing^_^)!

Being able to 'lock' and 'unlock' the wallpaper to them so they are no longer usable on demand might be a good solution.

Same with flower pots! ^^

I dont think it has something to do with your PC, i for myself have an AMD Ryzen 7 1700X with 32GB RAM and an AMD Radeon Pro Duo, FFXIV installed on an Kingston HyperX M.2 SSD, another FC member has something like 7th Gen i7, GTX 1080 Ti and its the same for him.
So i think it's hardcoded like "if more then 40 items remove random items until the player gets close"

Yes... that is what I was saying.

The hard limit of interactive items, without the game refusing to load them all, is 40 interactive items.

Whether you have an apartment, a cottage, a house, or a mansion, it's 40 items. Whether you have a shit PC, or you're on PS4, or you have a phenomenal PC, it's 40 items.

However if you go just a few items above the 40 item limit, then you do stand a chance of not being adversely affected, as you're not likely to be within line of sight of all 40 items. If you go any more than just a few items, however, the odds of being adversely affected shoot way up.
