Denied [All Main Servers Suggestion] Item Frames for ExtCreationsPlus2

+1

Andrew a few months ago said that item frames would be enabled with the upgrade to 1.16. If that is no longer in program, I support the idea of minimizing the lag impact of item frames while still allowing them to be placed, by adding them to a feature.

 

You do know the reason why item frames and armor stands were removed, right? They are entities, which behave differently from other blocks (they are considered closer to mobs in the code than blocks iirc). Too many of them, especially in one spot, can cause performance issues with a server. We used to be able to place them, but with certain changes to the server, we had to sacrifice them for better performance.

Don't get me wrong, I want them back so badly and was actually slightly pissed they were removed. They will hopefully be back eventually, but I believe now is not the time, especially when we are getting closer to updating to 1.16. Maybe 1.16 will see them brought back, but for now in 1.15, they won't be brought back.

I want them back, but -1

 

+1 if item frames would be ordinarily enabled with the 1.16 update anyways.

 

iirc after doing some research as they are entities they are treated as @Jdawger says like mobs etc which can not only cause lag for the server but also client side.

Maybe if there was a way to control how many you can place in total / how many can be placed in a area then it could work.

 

This will not happen. 1.16 was not the bonanza to performance that people thought it was. Unfortunately, until Minecraft itself has major changes in that regard, this will remain infeasible.
