    @Godra This issue has always been there for every lot. The Keep walls just generally made it more difficult to notice, as you couldn't open the gate until everything had loaded.

    The main issue I've seen (for all lots, again) is that loading seems slower in this release than prior releases, so this effect is particularly noticeable.

    @DarkStarr , I just stumbled across this post as I was researching how to decorate my castle walls I just crafted and enclosed my two village lots with. While I am happy for the lords and ladies of the land regarding this change, I am wondering about the lowly peasants like myself who scrape and scrounge to get two village lots together, craft walls to enclose them only to find out I can't decorate them. :( Is this going to be changing in the near future? what can I expect regarding this issue ? On another note you guys are doing a great job creating this game I am looking forward to it going full release :) :) cheers :)

    From what I can remember from telethon discussions on this topic, they don't have any plans to allow decorations to be placed on walls yet due to performance. Being such an open surface area, it would easily be possible to put a ton of deco items that need to render for everyone and that would kill performance and frame rates.

    Thanks for the answer to my question :) Well....That sucks although I understand. they are working hard to go release so priorities and all that but this is definitely on my list of things I would love to see happen (deco castle walls) As far as these two lots and the current walls on them goes...... I don't know what I am going to do yet. those walls look so bare with nothing up there. I may just take them down and go a different route.
