Cabins in De Haro are made for the 16x12 plots of land there. These plots support 43 prims. The cabins are 35 prims. Add a Villager Kitchen chair - oops can't, doesn't fit. Add half a Villager Kitchen chair, and you're done. Where am I supposed to put the bed? How many plots may a residents own in De Haro these days? Then I have some 400 other prims that used to sit on that same piece of land, and the sim's prim limit never was a problem in De Haro. Get this: De Haro never got over 50% of the 10,000 prim maximum!!
1.2 suggests imaginary limits that were never reached in certain areas. We survived Kissling at 100% prims use, and got it down to a decent workable 75% steady. No problems, no questions asked, all happy tax-payers, complaining about taxes like every self-respecting tax-payer would. Thank you for messing that up!

I have a cabin in de Haro. Allowed prims 43. Number actually there 275.
I will be able to move on, but for complete newbies (as opposed to partial ones) this will be a real problem.

The default cabin is crap. You can build a reasonable facsimile of it with 3 prims.
That leaves you 40. Considering that I've seen single-prim tables around...

Man, a single prim table would look like crap... Nothing like having furniture that disapears at certain viewing angles I guess...

Eggy,
It depends on what you define as 'reasonable'. To me it seems a reasonable general assumption that the more prims are available, the better an object will look.

Eggy,
Oh, and I wasn't clear in my first post. The 275 prims are not just because of the cabin, but because of my furniture and plants. I believe the cabin accounts for 30-something.

For any normal "use", as if you ever actually needed to use a table in this game, the table I saw looked pretty damn good. Most people dont go around peeking under the table you know  |

If anything this kind of prim-budgeting will eliminate the somewhat odd tendency of 'reality nesting instinct' that most builder show when recreating their environments, including the bathroom, etc..
In a new world all we can do is parrot the old? Just seems like wasted potential to me. It is easy to copy, it is harder to create something unique.
I do agree in general that a 43 primitive object budget isn't that great. You are better off living in the sandbox then - at least the only inconvenience is pulling your house out of inventory every day, which may even stimulate building efficiencies and/or design changes. Of course, some random fool always crashes the simulator at times, so it isn't perfect either.
