There are only a few things I feel are missing from this mod. The first being a bit of bathroom decor, specifically, some toilets and bathtubs. Heck, a shower would work as well. The other prominent thing that I feel is missing are clocks. Some grandfather clocks would be excellent additions to the rest of the mod. I don't know if you could do it, but it would also be useful if they could display the actual in-game time somehow, though that might be a bit tricky. Other than those things, the mod is possibly the best decor mod on steam.

An option to change the size of the cabinets would be a nice addition.
The secret door kind of stands out with way it is now because it's so much smaller.
And if you're going for a study, library or ancient archive theme, it's almost certain to clash with the other decorations.

Hello, I have just discovered the medicine cabinet for myself.
Yes, I have not decorated the house for some time.
I was busy with breeding and server problems.


Is there any way that you could add other remedies via the ini?
And that you can make the shelf life higher than that of the refrigerator?

I use the mod The Hunted and there are bandages, but these are only very short-lived and these do not fit into the medicine cabinet pure.
But that would be the perfect place for the.
Also, it would probably be handy if the Narco berries with hineinkönnten and eventuel Narcosemittel, since it has a healing effect in the mod.
But to me is actually most important that I could accommodate the bandages there.

Oh yes what I would really like very much. A nice chemistry bank. with bubbling potions and the like, not this ugly vanilla!

Hello, me again. Is there a way to the sink a kind of mini hose ranzumachen, so that the reinforced water hose can also ansnappen?

Since this is not possible, I must now have a long pipe in my bedroom, or I would have the choice that it runs through the kitchen.
Alternatively, I could run it straight up through the sink.

If the point to snap on would be at least on the wall behind, I could lay the pipe straight up.
But no it is in the middle of the sink.
Is there a reason for the center of the sink?

And with the BathroomSink is twice Gothic specified, but the one should probably be called wood.

I'll take a look at allowing custom items via ini, and I don't remember exactly why the pipe snap is in the middle of the sink, but I can probably either move it or add another snap at the back.

I've noted your other suggestions and fixes as well, thanks!

Hello, I'm glad that my comments have been well received.
I'm also glad you shared the mods, so the servers won't be blocked anymore when you update.

Your mods are really beautiful.
It just took me a long time to start using them myself.
Whereas I had them on the cluster for a while, but breeding and the servers kept me from decorating a bit. (Whereas the graveyard mod, I have it for a very long time and dia I have also long ago created a great graveyard with brilliant views of Valguero).

But all these things for the house. Great, I am super excited, only my PC hates me now. He has a lot of work with all the decoration stuff.
And I hope that I will soon find out how to insert the pictures for the picture frames. I have a lot of great screenshots and would love to put them up.

I have a few more questions/ideas, of course this doesn't have to be implemented and you don't have to answer immediately.
I hope it's ok if I write some more text in case something else catches my eye the days. But I haven't tried coloring and co yet. So do not know how the whole thing behaves.

- The bathtubs are very nice, but I miss that you can lie in there. (I haven't tested the toilet for functionality yet).
- The toilet paper roll holder, including roll, for the wall. Should the roll be so colorful?
- Is there a way to give the dishes that can hold food a cooling function?
I find it very nice when a full red wine glass on the sofa table, but unfortunately that does not stay very long.
- Is there another way to have the lights turn on automatically at night, or at least link them to a light switch? I like it when the lights are off during the day, but turn on at night. For me, only when you enter the room, no matter how.
But switching all the lights on/off individually is very tedious.
- I was looking for a nice narrow but long dresser. Have I simply overlooked, or there is no such thing?
- Could you also have the smoke come out of the top chimney when the melt is stoked.

I'm really glad that you made such beautiful things and the possibility that you have several different choices of items is perfect.
You really added a lot of things that I really missed in Ark.

Can I tag onto the request here, if you're working on the medicine cabinets, is there any chance you could allow lesser antidote to be stored in the cabinet? Even if it doesn't extend the expiration time of the antidote, it would be great for organization!

I wanted that too, but it needs a custom animation (I don't see an existing animation in ARK that would work well). It can be done but it's not top priority since it will take longer to do. The toilet should be fine since ARK has a toilet/sitting animation already, so I just used that.

This is fixed in the next update.

If you mean that things you put inside spoil so the food in the dishes and wine in the glass vanishes, you can put a waterskin in them (even if it's empty it will still work), or narcotics/stimulant since they don't expire.

I'll have to look in to how difficult this would be to implement, it would be a nice feature though.

Not really, the hallway dresser is the closest thing i guess, but it's not long, and it doesn't have modern/gothic style variants like the rest of the furniture. I can look in to adding something like this though.

You'll be able to put lesser antidote plus a few more things in the medicine cabinet in the next update.

Thanks, I'll do that with the water hose. Then I at least got rid of the useless things.
I use The Hunted, there run the stimulants and narcotics. So not the perfect solution.

I'm glad that some things could be implemented quite quickly (chimney and toilet roll).
Everything else is not in a hurry. Thanks for the feedback.

Hi there Akka! I've loved using your mod since our cluster added it, and I thought of something this evening while adding little doo-dads to my cottage --- Mailboxes!

We do deliveries when trading, maybe a blueprint for resources, dino for dino, etc., and while we're used to having a random unlocked structure to put stuff in, mailboxes could be a fun addition. Maybe kinds like the ones that attach to a wall, or stand up ones wrapped in stone, etc.. :)
Hello,

Love the mod so far - one of the only furniture mods that doesn't horribly unbalance the server in the process, and the textures and models are excellent.

The only serious issue I'm running into now is snap points. A lot of times, mods like these are used in combination with building mods such as CKF, and the windows / doors will not snap to those frames, or the likes of mods such as Arkitect.

Have any plans on correcting the snap points to make this more compatible?

--I love this mod! I wanted to offer up a suggestion if possible. I would love to see the addition of hanging pots/herbs/kitchen decor. Like the racks that hang on the wall to hold pots/pans, or the boards used to string up herbs/flowers to dry them. I think that would look cute with the kitchen items already in the mod.

--I love the Gothic toilet, but I have trouble snapping it, It will only place in the middle of a block for me, I'm not sure why. Maybe make a decorative version of it without utility that doesn't snap, as an option for those of us who just want the look of it?

--a small pet bed would be a cute addition as something to put in your house since we have so many small dinos and chibis.

thank you for the great mod!
