    [Request] Please allow resize feature for furniture

    After owning an apartment for about 2 weeks now, I really enjoy customizing furniture and the layout of my apartment. There is one thing I was really curious about.

    How is it that we can't edit the size of items?
    I really would appreciate it if we were allowed to resize certain items (ex. wall mounted items or even floor items/tabletop items).
    •Please create an extra button for housing mode/layout mode to adjust things to be smaller/larger.

    ( P.S. As a personal wish, please allow us to adjust the size of a shower stand since I feel too short as a Lalafell. )


    I would really appreciate the feedback.

    Everything is scaled so that any player can interact with them but the problem is it just means everything is scaled for roes.

    Even as a miqo'te I find some furnishings ridiculously too large or tall, nevermind on my lalafell alt.

    I'm honestly having difficulty furnishing my lalafell's fc room because she just looks a toddler with all the oversized furniture. I'm using Hingan stuff in an attempt to make them look more scaled to her size.

    I would LOVE the option to rescale at least some furniture.

    Or even some more 'race specific' furniture? I appreciate the the Lalafellin Step stool, got about 10 of them.

    Yes! I do understand the feeling! I installed a shower stand and it's just too tall!

    Even some items that just seem too small or too big. Example is maybe like floor items/table items or even wall mounted items!

    I look at certain items such as wall mounted pots, lanterns, or even shelves and to be honest, I wish they were bigger or smaller..

    I feel like if it is too problematic in terms of data, SE can just implement the resize function for this issue! ^^ I feel like that will solve a lot of problems.

    I'm a Elezen, the second largest female avatar in the game, and I find a bunch of things too tall as well. Like the hingan sitting table goes up to my shoulder when I sit by it.

    Everyone knows Roe is the true master race, so it is to be expected. I do not support this request, long live the true master race.4

    Not really liking the idea 'cause it's not creative, I'd even say it's cheating. FFXIV has a fantastic selection of housing items you can get very creative with, making furniture combos and exploiting glitches to come up with the desired look and feel of a room. There's plenty of good examples on housingsnap.com. I'm particularly fond of good designs for lalas. Whenever someone pulls that off, it's quite cute and impressive. Challenge your perception and give it a go. Designing stunning homes/rooms in FFXIV is really a matter of illusion. There's plenty of possibilities. You'd be surprised what you can come up with.

    Go furnish a room for a lalafell character and see how fantastic the furnishings feel when almost every single table in the game is above your shoulders. So many counter tops are above your eyes. Even stepping on the lalafellin stool isn't enough to reach the counter top on many furnishings.

    So you think lalafells using furniture scaled for a race several times their size is creative?

    Also you know what's cheating? Your advice on using glitches and exploits for furnishing. A lot of them in the past were actually fixed by SE. I'd rather not rely on bugs to get furnishings to look vaguely practical as bugs eventually get fixed.

    I feel like if we were to implement this, it would actually spike up more creativity because you can start adjusting sizes on items specifically based for you and your race.
    Maybe you want a nightlight? Make a wall mounted lantern smaller!
    There is a lot of possibilities if this were implemented.

    There is of course a limit to resizing things if some kind of feature existed.

    I don't approve of unintended glitches to make my apartment/house look better. I support the idea of using actual features to make something amazing. ^^
