I have installed the latest update to receive the eagerly awaited 150 photo saves. I’ve just hit my limit with 77. Why is that? Surely 150 is 150 no?
I do have a combination of old One S (hd) & new One X (4k) photo saves if that would make any difference. Or is it a combined total of photo saves and photos shared? Idk. Any suggestions on how I can increase the limit to the intended 150 would be great? Thankyou.
I hit my limit after 59 so I am missing like 90 slots … I would love to have unlimited slots but I feel that will never happen. The slots have to be based on memory size when it should be based on actual numbers if I have 150 photos I should get 150 slots … Not I only get 150 slots if each photo is only 1MB in size. This is how it feels right now.
If it helps you can watch me hit my limit at 59 if you go to my mixer page and watch the end of my most recent video. MIXER
Wow. Looks like this only effects two peeved off people? Oh that’s alright then. Move along, nothing to see here. Next!..
Maybe try posting here

I can only imagine that this might not be too high on their list of things to fix. I think that they need to elaborate as to how this works, because so many people have different save spaces so it cant be one photo for each space… it has to be governed by memory size and the cache allowed for this is not big enough still!!!
It depends on the quality of the photos that you took. 4K photos take up more space than standard photos.
This may be the case. If it’s not, please submit a ticket
While the current limit is 150, this is also dependent upon your other items as well. The cap on photos is 150, but you also have a cap on your XBL Storage space. If you have a lot of cars, liveries, tunes, etc… this will alter the amount of photos you can have.
Thank you
Well that needed to be explained when rolling this out. Transparency needs to be increased for the Forza games. Not everyone knows how things work within the game all they know is that they could store 100 photos in every other game up to date and now they can’t and thats all they see.
So is there a solution to relive that combined save space? Or how about just open the save space to the actual Xbox hard drive? I do everything so I have photos,Paints, Tunes and Blueprints… but now I suffer because I do it all rather than just one!!! I need the photo space!!! I have already maxed out again and I am cringing deleting photos that I would maybe like to use later on. I am forced to Screenshot which by the way does not have the Forza logo on it… I would much rather have the logo so people know where my photo comes from as I love this game and the series! I just don’t have the room!
If there is anyway to talk to someone about this more indepth I would love to.
If you go to the gallery on the website, you can download the photos to your PC HD and save them forever. I do that with mine 
Hi Nitro
Thank you for your time.
Yes, we agree and understand. And yes, no doubt we could delete the odd livery, tune or car here and there. But the problem still remains that one will still want to keep the best photos available in-game so that they can continue to be shared, viewed and liked within each person’s creative hub. A history of works so to speak.
Yes we can, and do, back up the photos to pc. But, once you delete the photo from the in game photo gallery, to make space for new, that’s it, there gone from the game for good, as there is no way of putting them back into the game. Do you see what I mean?
There is also disappointment in the fact that, for the fortunate amongst us who are able to afford the best platform in the X, it appears that we are being punished by having to jump through more hoops and save less photos than owners of an S. I’m no mathematician, but 60 is not 150.
So it still requires that balance of deleting historic photos to make space for new. Whilst still continuing to back up regularly.
So that’s why we’re disappointed in not actually getting that extended freedom of 150 slots, which would have been superb.
Thank you.

Another thought. So you say that there is a cap on each XBLive account. Does that mean that all the other game saves/screenshots etc we have saved also impact on the allocated space available for FH4?
As Broken vegetable says, if we could discuss this further with someone that would be great.
BV has his photo stream on a Tuesday night, which is very good by the way, why not get somebody to drop by and say hello?
You have answered this thread but it is in no way resolved.
I want more save spaces for my photos. I understand I can save the photos to my PC BUT I want to keep them in game so I can use them for photo comps and whatnot. Also like Paddock said if you have 1,000 likes on a photo Detroit that from the game takes down your over like accumulation which helps sell cars at a higher value on the AH.
At this point I want unlimited in game photo saves. I don’t want to have to choose which photos I HAVE to delete to make room for new ones.
I need more space for photos!
You’re lucky, i can only save about twenty photo’s and some vinyls. That’s it. It’s not worth worrying however as this may be my last Forza title if this is how things are now.
Unfortunately I have had to purge most of my saved photos within the game to enable me to snap away without restriction. I didn’t want to do this, but I don’t however see any alternatives at this time.
JonK reached out, in possible response to my Xbox message, on one of the Forza streams recently, and confirmed that yes the Xbox one X produces larger photo file sizes in relation to the S. Although he didn’t know numbers. Retro & Nitro have suggested likewise too.
My question, possibly covered by BV earlier, is. Can we please have an explanation on how the allocation in game works. And, what we could possibly do as a ‘work-around’ to enable more photos to be saved.
Muchos gracias
Change your photo settings to a lower resolution ??
