I reloaded an autosave when I entered the house for the first time, went outside the house and when I went back in and the furniture was gone again. I did the same thing and when I went in the house again the furniture was back but everything was on the floor.
For now I have all of my items in one chest that did not disappear when all the furniture did but before I start putting things in other chests and put items on the tables, can anyone tell me if it would happen again? Did this happen to anyone else?
Because even though the houses are really just for dumping all the crap you don't want to carry I like to decorate some of it with unique items but I don't want to do this if the furniture will constantly disappear.
