✭✭This would not be correct. Zenimax has control over what data is available via the API.
Even so, suggesting that ZO exclude such data would make any even remotely useful addons related to housing utterly impossible.
That data will still be transmitted to the machines of every visitor of every home. Capturing it in some not officially supported way probably wouldn't be very difficult.0 -

@Nerouyn
That's not the case at all. The housing add-on has been very useful for years. It helps a player align their furnishings and save their own designs so they can easily reuse them and rotate among different designs.
In fact, this add-on used to require a player to have decorator privileges, which permitted the "owner" of the home to limit access to such data. The OP makes this clear. So, reverting this add-on / API setting to the previous design would solve the issue.

I dont understand why youre defending people ruining other peoples game experience.. this issue has just been experienced with eht, if there are new add ons just for copying im sure ZOS will not allow that. Though they dont seem to care much about this post anyway.2 -
moo_2021✭✭✭✭✭Instead of fixing the API, can we just have in-game courts to try copyright cases? Imagine being a lawyer in ESO - it'd be so much fun

✭Might take a player to enter one of Zos supported housing contests with a stolen build and being caught for them to show interest in the issue.
I hope not.1 -

✭This is already a problem on PCNA. A specific housing player (not naming names, if you know, you know) has been going around zone and other places advertizing custom comissioned housing setups that are exact rip-offs of other player's works and this person uses EHT to recreate it in the home of the buyer.
They charge tens of millions of gold or more for this 'service' and even do an extremely poor recreation job, which the poor buyers have to get help from other housing designers to fix their mess if they want the house looking nice.
This isn't a new or recent development either, and has been going on awhile.@Djennku, PCNA.

✭✭✭✭✭I saw a player talking about selling builds in zone chat. I wonder if it's the same player.Edited by SilverBride on 17 June 2025 16:03PCNA1 -
JJBoomer✭✭✭✭✭question as someone who uses EHT and was unaware of this whole thing.
Is inspection mode what allows you to view objects and see what they are called in people's houses?
because i like visiting houses and being able to see the names of furnishings i've never seen before, so i can look them up on uesp.
or is that another feature entirely?0 -

Yes, that is inspection mode, and it's native to the game.1
