Maintenance for the week of September 22:
• NA megaservers for maintenance – September 22, 4:00AM EDT (8:00 UTC) - 10:00AM EDT (14:00 UTC)
• EU megaservers for maintenance – September 22, 8:00 UTC (4:00AM EDT) - 14:00 UTC (10:00AM EDT)
Animations have an impact on Furnishing Limits. I think every thing or most everything that moves is categorized as Special and has its own limits.
I know players on older consoles who put so much animated stuff out the game would just crash if they tried to load in everytime. Even just a tonne of basic lights could cause it.
