oh wow ok thanks
call me impatient all you want, i've literally spent all day today trying to move a villager out of my island and yet nothing seems to work whatsoever. NOBODY wants to move, especially the chick I want to remove from residence, and I'm starting to legitimately get mad. What am I doing wrong?
this may not help, and im sorry in advance for that, but it goes like this for me: i have a good relationship with all my villagers, they all have a high level of friendship with me. however the game still programs them to, once in a while, appear with those thinking bubbles above their heads and some of those times it will be because they are thinking of moving. this happens even though i treat them all very well and would never want them to leave. so from this i can assume that a character deciding to leave all of a sudden is something that is just bound to happen in the game. ive also heard here that the game makes it happen randomly, just in case you do feel like having someone move that day. so if you have tried every trick and method and they did not work, my only suggestion would be simply waiting for the game to do its own job of eventually making the villager you are thinking of generate the “im thinking of moving” thought bubble
Unfortunately sometimes it can come down to RNG or luck. It can just take a while, it's not a guarantee no matter what method you use
so i'm just royally screwed then? I have someone waiting on me to stop by their island and pick up a villager, but I can't do that until I have a clearing. So there's absolutely, positively, definitely zero chance of me having what I need tonight?
I mean, there is a chance, it just might take time. It's luck, unfortunately.
Just to be positive, they were not the last villager to move in, correct?
obviously not, I haven't had a single villager at all today want to move out
also no, the villager I want to move out was the 7th of my current 10
Yeah, unfortunately then It's just horrible luck. I've had long streaks of this same issue as well. Try resetting to your current time and attempting again, but before you TT the 15 days or a month talk to everyone, starting with your target. Sometimes refreshing the times can help. There are some other methods, but I'm not as familiar with them :/
if it doesnt work out today, please dont be too disencouraged. there will be many opportunities to have the villager you want moving to your island (i believe its the reason why you want a villager to move out in the first place). people are always offering all kinds of nice villagers in boxes in this server, and you will come across the one you want again
not finding the villager I want is not the problem right now, the issue I'm having is kicking one out. Someone's offering me Shino, and before I could accept the deal, Savannah moved into my last available space. Besides, I've been wanting to kick Elise out for a long time anyway, but seeing everyone's advice, I'm just sort of stuck with it, with no absolute chance of ever getting such a chance again
Just keep trying with this method. In the meantime, may I DM you
i guess so
what do I do with a surplus of spooky cookies as a single player? also anyone else annoyed with the dupes from balloons...
Can a resident leave without you saying it's OK?
No, you have to explicitly give them permission
OK awesome, I won't wake up to anyone just vanishing or selling their house? Lmao
not in new horizons, nope
How do i get an axe?
craft it
If you don't have the recipe yet I have the recipe in my shop. I can tt back a couple hours and get you one.
Does planting flowers on a NMT/kapp'n island still go toward the stamp
Nope. Only in your island
Fuuuuuuuuuuck
I better do all the flowers and trees before I cover the whole island with custom patterns then
How many flowers and trees abd crops do I need to plant altogether to get all the stamps
300 flowers, 30 trees and 1000 crops
OK thanks
If i go villager hunting and i have all personalities on my island but not one, will it increase my chanse of getting villagers from that personality?
No, only the campsite has increased odds of spawning a villager from a personality you're missing ; mystery island villagers are fully random
okies
How do you fall in your head
Tripping and falling can happen randomly when running while holding a balloon or wearing the King Tut Mask
Thanks
is there a limit to how many money trees i cant plant?
how long does it take to grow the tree?
Same as all trees: 4 days
if i seel real statues, do they come wiht more money than what i bougth?
No, all art pieces are bought for 4,980 bells from Redd, but genuine ones are sold at 1,245 bells at Nook's Cranny
I have a question about my game being that my partner and I wanna both play animal crossing on out seperate switches will it delete my save data if I let him use the cartrage I use
No, the save data is stored on the Switch's memory, not on the game card
Thankq
Is there a way I can find out all of the new diys that have been released? Like a list or smth?
From the 2.0 update?
Yea
That includes all recipe: DIYs, cooking, and the ones that are exclusive to the DLC 
Great thanks! Do u get them from villagers? Also are there a lot that are only exclusive to the dlc
There are 22 DLC-exclusive ones: partition wall, plus all the variations for pillars and counters. (https://catalogue.ac/?s=Y2F0ZWdvcnk9ZGl5O3ZhZD0yLjAuMDtzcmM9aGhwOm5pa28=&o=series)
And to answer the other question: There are various ways to get them, it just depends on which recipe. Most can be found in recipe bottles or from villagers crafting/cooking. The glowing moss ones can only be found on the glowing moss Kapp’n islands (or on the HHP island if you have the DLC)
Oh ok ty
So everytime I start the game up, it displays the error message "This software could not be played because an error occured." When I start it up again, it plays fine. Is this happening to anyone else or is it just me?
Has anyone else had issues with orange pansies not reproducing?
I water them every day and I’ve been sitting on 4 for a while
that's not too abnormal I think? pretty sure #garden-science-info has rates, but the rates go up if you can get visitors on your island to water them for you
⭐ •• Watering Bonus •• ⭐
• Visitors from other islands can apply a bonus to your flower production!
• ❗ Rain, villagers, or other residents on your island won't add any bonus!
https://yuexr.github.io/img/watering.png
Alright thank you
Can I still get/trade the dlc diys even though I don’t have the dlc
Unfortunately not
can other people get the villager u have as a camper?
Visitors cannot adopt villagers from other campsites!
Oh also are the food diys hard to get or relatively easy to get from villagers
Or does it like depend on the food diy
Once you’ve unlocked cooking, I believe you should be able to get at least one cooking recipe from villagers each day!
AFAIK, each food DIY has the same odds of being chosen as other regular DIYs
How do u unlock cooking?
•• FAQ: Unlocking Cooking ••
To unlock cooking, the following criteria must be met:
• Upgrade Resident Services to a building.
• K.K. Slider must have had his first concert.
• Completed the DIY Customization Workshop.
The Nook Phone upgrade Be a Chef! DIY Recipes+ will then be available for purchase from the NookStop for 2,000 NookMiles. The option will be available the day following the concert.
Ty
If I blow money on amibos can I choose who they replace or is it like campsite visitors where it’s random
Amiibo campers give you the choice of who to replace
When do you unlock the dlc
•• FAQ: Unlocking Happy Home Paradise ••
To unlock the Happy Home Paradise DLC after purchase, you must
• Upgrade your tent to a house.
• Complete the DIY workshop with Tom Nook.
• Upgrade Resident Services to a building.
Tom Nook will then phone in to introduce you to Lottie to start the beginning sequences of the DLC. You may need to wait for a new day to roll over to get this cutscene.
Is time travel cheating
No, it's just a different way of playing the game
It’s just the first few days are so slow
You lose the prestige of wasting time 💀
How are gold roses acquired?
Water black roses with gold watering can, regular can works too but not as good
Also the more visitors that water it the higher the chances
Regular watering can will not make black rose breed gold ones
Do they just have a chance to turn gold or is it like they breed into gold?
I got like 10 through regular can
They breed/clone into a gold one
Tyyy
How does one make flower breeding setups
Impossible, only the gold can can raise a special flag needed for the black rose to produce a gold one, so they were previously watered by a gold can at some point
Check the guides in #garden-science-info
Oh like a 1 time thing?
Black roses keep their gold flag until they produce a gold rose, so once they have been watered with the gold can, regular watering can will be enough until they produce a gold rose, then another use of the gold can will be needed if more gold roses are wanted
How does one get a golden watering can
Isabelle teaches you the DIY once you reach a 5 star rating island
Jonah i can just craft u one if u need
I haven’t even unlocked the airport yet
I just started a new save yesterday and I’m going to be playing without time travel
This actually leads to another question. If I water my flowers with a gold can, does it matter if visitors use a regular one or not?
Once the black rose has been watered once with a gold watering can, the regular watering can is enough to build the visitor bonus
Interesting ty
Question about the server: if I wanted to post ACNH cosplay pics, where would they go?
Thank youuu
What is the chance of gold roses? Ive fast traveled only 3 days and have gotten 4 of them
If a black rose (previously watered with a gold watering can) breeds or clone, there 50% chance that the offspring will be a gold rose
Base breeding/cloning chance is 5%, but increases with the visitor watering bonus
How can I get other fruits except my native fruit
.t fruits
FAQ: Fruits

• What is my native fruit? - This is the fruit that will be on your trees when you first start the game. Your native fruit can also be bought from Nooks Cranny.
• What is my "sister fruit"? - This is the fruit that you find on a mystery island called "rare fruit island". This fruit can be sold for more than the native fruit at Nooks Cranny.
• What fruit does my Mom give? - Your mom will mail you a fruit. This can either be a new fruit that you have not obtained yet or a random one.
• How do I get the rest of the fruits? - You will only be able to obtain 2-3 fruits by yourself. To get the rest of the fruits you need to trade with other people. This can be done with your friends or with people in #fruit-vegetable-trade!
• Coconuts and bamboo are available through mystery islands!
🎍
Will my turnips rot if I time travel?
- If you time travel backwards at all (even just 1 min), yes
- If you time travel forward past the current week, yes
Oh gosh
I have planted a lot of flowers and place a lot of random stuff down. How do I still have 3 stars
depends on the stage of the flowers, and overall all the feedback from what you are missing will be reported by isabelle 
She is just saying to decorate the island which I have been doing
what exactly is she mentioning ? nature ? or other type ?
How long do money trees take to grow?
4 to 5 depending if you count the planting day; until harvest
I don't think I am ever going to get to 5 stars
If she is mentioning decorating, then it usually refers to development points. This includes infrastructure (shops, bridges, inclines), fencing, and placed furniture! You can get more points for large or expensive furniture, so I recommend trying to use these types of items to maximize your efforts. Here’s a link to the details of those points, if you’d like to take a closer look: https://chibisnorlax.github.io/acnhfaq/island-dev/rating/#development-points
I am just going to water 1000 flowers then remove them and start on my next zone
I just dumped hay benches all over the island and it seemed to get me there pretty early
are there clothing items angel based like halo, wings, etc?
There’s a halo item and white impish wings
oo ok, I do have impish wings thankfully just wasn't sure if there was a halo clothing item thank you

For personal bot use make sure to use them in #bot-commands ! 
The bot command you pulled up is how to unlock the feature but you cook the same way you craft- only you go up to a stove/kitchenette and press a instead of going to a crafting bench
oo yea well i haven't unlocked it yet
i’m sure this has been asked lots of times, but is there any way that you can more efficiently catch a flea? i’m wondering if my abundance of flowers and trees may be lowering my chances of catching one, even if they only appear on villagers
it shouldn't matter; here's the spawns requirements and limitations

How do you get hhp?
thank you! i should’ve completed night 1, but i have no idea of checking (i started my game a long time ago). my island is already at 5 stars
if you have bought the dlc see the requirements below
Ok
can a basic NSO use it if the upgraded one has the requirements?
And also do you need to pay off the debt for the house upgrade
basic NSO requires you to buy the dlc from the eshop to be able to access HHP. it's a one time purchase.
and yes, to be able to upgrade your home you need to finish paying the previous loan
when you consult friendship wifh Katrina and she says something like “it is clear that you and [villager] are connected by the strongest of bonds”, “i have given you nearly everything i could offer” and says that she hopes her crystal or something will give you luck in your future interactions with a villager, does it mean you have maxed out the level of friendship?
the level yes; the points not as sure but you're clearly up there yes
i recently consulted her about Julian and she said that, but i havent received a photo from him (not that thats my only goal ofc, but its something i wondered about)
i also consulted her about Frita and she said the same thing, but Frita did give me her photo in one occasion
what do you give your villagers ? photos are given as a rewards for 750+ worth gifts
also in the end this all depends on luck
oh if i give them something expensive, it makes it more likely for them to give me a photo?
not exactly, if your gift is worth less than 750 bells, you have 0 chance for a photo, if it's more then you have a chance to receive a photo
doesn't matter if it's 750 or 5000 at that point though, don't improve chances
Is the rice paddy wallpaper rare or in high demand at all? I just got it, it's animated and kinda cool. Thinking about trading it
any Sahara wallpaper can be valuable in its own way since you can only get it with Sahara and cant buy again with the catalogue. specially a pretty one like the nature themed ones. like the meadow or the rice paddy fields
Ahhh.. so It does have high trade value?
in a way, yes

Awesome!!
How much would 3 stacks of wood be in bells? Like around 900k idk-
This channel isn't a pricing guide! Please search past messages in the appropriate channel for your item/villager to get an idea of the going rates.

Can someone pls help me understand how treasure-islands work? Especially the ones I’ve seen that have lots of bells. I want to visit one but I’m anxious because I’ve never done it before and I don’t want to make a mistake
what happens if someone tries to come to your island but it’s full?
depends on the treasure islands. they are in the end other people's islands, and allhave different rules and manners.
bear in mind 99.9% of them are full of hacked items, meaning if they are not responsioble with it , you might end up with a glitched item. overall don't pick up any kits (for plots or birdges / inclines) and any item displaying a japanese name if your system isn't in japanese
it'll tell them the island is full currently
Oh okay, idk about the items being not obtained the normal way. What happens if I get an item that’s glitches, can it mess up my island or does the item just not really present right and we throw it away?
you can't throw away a kit; and since you are not meant to have it in the first place (in this manner at least) sometimes there isn't a solution to it. so just something to keep in mind. you won't have issues picking up classic furniture or materials, but any item you need to go through tom nook to get, shouldn't be picked up
a reminder that hacking talk isn't allowed here, just here to warn you of possible consequences of irresponsible behaviour. You as visitor will not be in trouble for going to a treasure island
Thank you for all the info, I definitely didn’t know it’s of that.😊
Idk if this is the place to ask, but is there a way I can “ask for help” with designing my house? I haven’t played in a while and I really want to redesign my home but I’m honestly just looking for someone to help me with everything for my home. I have bells and materials but I need lots of help to do this lol TIA 🫶🏼
well you can't invite someone over to decorate wth you (the gameplay doesn't allow it) but if you are looking for advice you can ask in #home-designs or if you are will to play in game currency you can try #player-services
No I meant like i just need them to provide the stuff for me to put it all together myself lol if that makes sense 😅
yes, to give you a list and screenshot for examples right ? pretty sure both of these chat apply 
I just need someone to help with finding me these items or providing them or just helping me come up with a good theme for my home lol
I can definitely provide either materials, kits, and bells or pay in whatever they need 🥺
we can help with a resonable amount of item identification here (aka don't give 2 full room of items to identify, if you have multiple images, circle the items you need identified)
for crafting services #player-services
also for finding themes as I said #home-designs or #player-services if you are willing to pay in game currency
Oh I’m sorry I was just sending them as an example lol because I just want anything off that picture 😅 still new to being in the discord. And okay! I appreciate your help 😊
it's ok; just item identification can take time and can be tedious, so if you have a few items, or a small room to identify, you can ask here, be sure to highlight what you want identified, but for help that isn't identification or mechanics, it'll be the others chats 
following up on my questions ab fleas, do they not show up on normal villagers? i know for one of the earlier games, it wouldn’t show up on them but i don’t know if that still applies in new horizons
they do show up on normal villagers, even if they don't have fur (I got a few on lily for example)
gotcha! i’m guessing it would also apply to merengue, poppy, and marina? just trying to figure out if i shouldn’t bother looking for fleas on them
yes, any villager can have fleas
Missing a few things but here is what I could find!
is there a reason you dont always get miles from visiting other people’s islands?
You only get it on the first visit of the day
thanks
but all flights count, right? for like, the dodo airlines merch you get for using their services a lot
wait how does villager trading work?
basically if you have a villager who is moving but theyre still organizing their boxes at home, someone can visit your island and invite that villager to go live in their island
Ohhhhhh
hi whats this item
Read the info on the side
thanks
thank u!
do i need to friend a person to plant flowers on their island?
I have a question:
What does Nmts mean?
For me I was able to plant things on my friends island
I’m pretty sure you won’t be able to? But if it doesn’t work for you and they aren’t friended then most likely yes you need to friend them

No, anyone can plant flowers on someone else’s island. You need to best friends only if you want to dig up the flowers. (For other plants such as trees and shrubs, you must be best friends to both dig and plant)
should I sell replica bugs/fish or is there a reason to hold onto them?
Up to you! If you have 3 of the same bug/fish, you can give them to Flick to commission a model. And there are a couple of fish that can be used in cooking recipes. Aside from that, decorating or selling are pretty much the only other uses 
i appreciate it! I'll hold onto them for models
is there a way to store them or do I need to hold them in my inventory?
Yep, you can put them in your house storage!
ah ok, how do I access that?
Press right on the d pad while in your house
Also I'm having issues with growing trees, can somebody look at this image and tell me what's wrong?
I see other people with trees placed exactly like this, only one place apart in each direction, but the middle ones won't grow
There are too many in the area. You’ll need to space them out more in order for them to grow. Then you can move them back to this configuration once they are fully grown ^^
Ohhh that makes sense, thanks a ton, it would've taken me forever to figure that out lol
Can someone help me, i tried to time travel day per day and no villager appear with a bubble 🥺
I time travel like 1 month day per day
no luck
i haven’t played in a while and recently restarted a new world. how do i get other flowers ? mums are my native and when i travel using nmts i only get roses or mums.
Sooo, someone came over and watered my flowers, AWESOME, then some gold roses grow in, even more awesome, and now new gold roses are growing I haven't even unlocked the golden watering can yet, nor has someone can over and given me one and nobody else had watered these flowers, WHAT IS HAPPENING
Visit other people’s shops, TT to a different month, or play enough to unlock the co-op on Harv’s island
Do you have a house yet or is it still a tent?
it’s a house
and i have 3 plots built for my villagers
Sorry I don’t quite follow /gen
thank you sm
The house question was for someone else

How to get 98.000 bells fast?
How to MAKE BELLS, the SIMPLE Way:
- Play the stalk market: buy turnips at a low price and sell them high.
- Dive and catch sea creatures to sell back to Nook's Cranny.
- Grow stuff (fruits, flowers, pumpkins, etc) and sell to Nook's Cranny.
- If you have NSO (Nintendo Switch Online), trade with other players by visiting the trade channels in this server and seeing where to sell your services or goods!
Thanks!
iirc you don't have storage until you upgrade into a house 
How do I get filmsy Shovel?
Blathers will give you the diy for it. Give 5 critters to tom to get him to come the next day
Thanks!
Oohh
Ofc! Sorry for late reply btw
As Kia mentioned, you won’t get any home storage until you upgrade from tent to house.
But you still don’t have to keep all those critters in your pocket — you can just place them outside for now ^^
You can place non-furniture items?
Wow
Mhm! When you select the bug/fish from your pocket, you should see an option to “place” 
Does anyone know what items are used for the stands here?
I think it's this? https://catalogue.ac/i/13189-0
Thanks!
how often can u get a diy recipe from celeste if ur visiting her on other ppls islands?
is it once a day?
Once a day
so I made a gigachad design and placed it on the ground to see what it would look like. How do I remove it?
You can kick it away by pressing X (i think x), or edit the design to be a path or transparent or whatever, if you edit the design all of the ones you placed down will change as well
But if u just want it gone u can kick it away
it was y but it worked
Oop, sorry there haha, glad it worked out! My button memory isn't what it used to be
How can I access my items that I’ve put in my storage?
You can either:
- Go inside your house and press ➡️ on the D-pad.
- Use a storage shed or a wooden storage shed furniture item.
What are the consequences of time travelling many days forward and saving every time?
Mostly weeds, cockroaches at home and turnips spoiling if you bought some
Is it possible to just switch two characters houses or do I have to go through that whole process of moving and renovation?😭
Wdym switch? A character is linked to a house, you have to love their house if you want them to move location
Love 
Switch as in like A person goes to B person's spot and then B person goes to A person's spot
By person I mean villager sorry
Nah you'd have to do A to C, B to A and C to B
That's what I thought but I was hoping
do turnip prices change throw out the day?
Can we join other islands without ninetendo membership?
yeah once at morning and once at midday (for selling)
i think they might change if buying but not sure
daisy mae only shows up on your island until midday so
I need help with the middleman service. Then rules aren’t making sense to me.
You can travel to someone else's island on local play, e.g. they are sitting near you with their Switch on AC. Otherwise no, you cannot
Aww ok thx
What part/s do not make sense? There are a lot of rules
How it works, what are the steps to it, what do i need to insert precisely
i feel like theres too many rules and can’t find what i really need without having to read through a ton of things
The basic premise is probably this -
2. Head over to request-a-middleman and use the template that corresponds to the service you are requesting to submit your request. Each template for each request can be easily copied and filled out under the section of the service you are requesting. ```
Depending on what you want to request to trade, there'll be different things. Unfortunately you'll probably have to read the ton of things to get an idea about what you need to do
the template i understood that but i didn’t get how i’m supposed to lay it out properly without do anything weird
imm scared to touch anything and doing it wrong
I think you just copy whatever the template is that applies to you (a villager or an island reset) and complete whatever needs filling in
Hey guys! AC question!! If I see a villager walking around with a thought bubble, if I save and close the game is there a chance the bubble might go to another villager???
If it's a move out bubble, not on the same day
HELP HOW DO I PLACE IT ON THE WALL
That one can't be placed on the cliff, it can only be used as a tool to climb it
They're called Ladder Set-up Kit (there are four types: wooden, iron, golden & vine)
oh thank you so much
Hi guys, my noon miles stamps still have empty slots, does anyone know if these are meant to be filled with something?
Here's the list of Nook Miles achievements, in order: https://catalogue.ac/?s=Y2F0ZWdvcnk9YWNoaWV2ZW1lbnRz&o=achievements
Yes, each day, the game makes sure there are 5 wasp nests hidden in trees, you just have to catch them all in one day
Ahhh I see. Thanks for the info!
Does anyone know how to get the nook miles app?
like on your nook phone? it should be there as soon as you start the game
Oh ok I’ll check. Thank you 🙂
Does anyone know how to unlock leif?
AFAIK, there are no requirements for Leif to start visiting, he comes randomly at least once every two weeks
U can’t get the golden watering can or golden axe diys right
But u can get the rest of the golden tool diys
Not as card items, no, they're learned directly
The other ones exist legitimately as DIY cards
Ok ty

Hello new here but I was curious how do I get more fruit other than what’s on the islands I can get to. How do I get visitors? And visit others?
FAQ: Fruits

• What is my native fruit? - This is the fruit that will be on your trees when you first start the game. Your native fruit can also be bought from Nooks Cranny.
• What is my "sister fruit"? - This is the fruit that you find on a mystery island called "rare fruit island". This fruit can be sold for more than the native fruit at Nooks Cranny.
• What fruit does my Mom give? - Your mom will mail you a fruit. This can either be a new fruit that you have not obtained yet or a random one.
• How do I get the rest of the fruits? - You will only be able to obtain 2-3 fruits by yourself. To get the rest of the fruits you need to trade with other people. This can be done with your friends or with people in #fruit-vegetable-trade!
• Coconuts and bamboo are available through mystery islands!
🎍
Ok so I'm having a problem, when I open my gate my friend can't visit me. Others can visit with no problem, but my friend can't. And I can't visit my friend either, but me and my friend can visit others.
•• How to set up a DODO Code ••
• Speak to Orville at your island's Airport
• Tell him that you want visitors on your island, via Local Play or Online Play
• You must have a Nintendo Switch Online subscription in order to use the Online Play option
• Select Invite via Dodo Code
• Proceed through the remainder of the choices
• Orville will present your Dodo code. Give this code to those you want to visit your island
• NOTE: This code is only valid for this session. You will need to follow this same process to generate a new code for subsequent sessions
Does your friend have issues with others visiting them?
No, my friend can visit our other friend. And my other friend can visit him. But when it comes to me and him, the game doesn't let us.
Does it error out?
Yes we get a message
Like does it not show you as an option to travel to, or does it attempt to work and then fail with an error?
ah what's the message?
error code 2618-0521
This is the Nintendo support page related to that specific error: https://en-americas-support.nintendo.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/49066/~/error-code%3A-2618-0521
Oh ok
If I put a custom design on the ground, will villagers come look at it/go near it to investigate or do they ignore stuff like that
will they follow custom paths or ignore them too?
I ask because I placed these things that look like monsters hiding in holes around my island and was hoping they would at least walk over to them lol
Things like these for example, I wonder if residents will acknowledge them
Maybe not the single ladder tile but the large hole might attract them, iduno
They will not
Does anyone know what happens when you redecorate a villagers home on your own island with the hhp dlc and then gift them furniture? Does the redecorate stay exactly how it was, or will gifting them furniture slowly mess up the decorations?
If it's an item they can display, they might display it afaik
Thanks for your quick answer! Do you know if they'll rotate in/out items that were given before the redecorate as well?
They should not from what I remember
not too sure though
In my experience, my own villagers with redecorated homes have not placed any gifted items, even ones given after the remodel. But as Nours mentioned, it may still be possible afaik
And if the villager moves to a new island, their house will revert to their default home.
Thank you both! This is very helpful!
For whatever reason my orange pansies are not reproducing orange pansies. Their offspring are typically yellow. Is this normal? I have 9 of every color but these are giving me issues
If they aren't set to cloning without touching any other pansy, they might produce other colors depending on their genes. If you only want orange ones, make sure they are isolated so that they can clone instead of breeding with other pansies
That must be the issue then. I have them in a checkerboard formation. Thanks
What does cataloguing mean
Flower breeding guide?
They're in #garden-science-info
Haven't played in a couple of months, what items can only be obtained with time travel now? The 2021/2022 new years arches I know, anything else?
I think the 1st anniversary cake as well
There’s some other seasonal items as well that are only in nook shopping on certain dates. Lemme know if you’d like a calendar! /nf
I mean so long as the seasonal items are obtainable going forward I don't mind. Just wondering about items that are basically "yeah you missed it and its not coming back".
Fair enough. A lot of them do cycle through from year to year
Ooh they have zodiac figurines based on the animals of the 12 year zodiac cycle. I had to TT year by year for, like, 7 years to get all those lol
Katrina can give those when getting a bad fortune and asking her to cleanse it
So I want to transfer the anniversary cake, the new years arches, any zodiac items I have crafted? I think I have most of the recipes unlocked, I remember getting pretty lucky with the Celeste spawning.
Random from Katrina, but each late December/early January has the current Zodiac figurine for sale in the promotional tab of the Nook Shopping app
Yeah as LeChat said it’s based on the current year. The cycle is still ongoing irl
Oooooh you're talking the little figurines not the crafted ones with star fragments
Yeah that’s why I clarified “the Chinese zodiac cycle” ‘cause it’s different than the star sign one 
My bad, I didn't even know those were in the game till now.
600.000 bells. K is for kilo which is a thousand
Ok
Is there a guide for the first few days in game and unlocking everything? I’ve restarted and don’t remember anything lol
How long does it typically take to get pictures from villagers? I’ve been gifting every day for almost two weeks now and Nothing😪
If you start from no friendship it's any average of 2 month from my experience, keep in mind the gift need to be worth 750 bells or more, and it's still random
Thank you! Katrina said all my bonds are as strong as they can be but I didn’t know that the gift cost had to be a certain amount.
Easy ways for this amount is 2 wrapped foreign fruits or 3 vegetables
Hayy Nours mentioned this but under a certain bell value no photos are given, yeah? So if I'm trying to get photos asap, what's the best gift method that will NOT mess with the house i decorated for my villager?
Well as above, wrapped fruits and veggies are not stored so works wonders and are easy to provide, there's also the stack method, go to them with a full inventory, and give them a stackable material worth 750+ like a pearl, gold nugget or a giant clam, they'll send a mail with a present with slightly better chances for a photo
What makes nook. inc toilet paper so expensive. the price is climbing and i dont know why
It’s a special item you can only get by redeeming your nook points in the nooklink app inside nintendo switch online app
As long as you have nook points
You can redeem points everyday, it resets at midnight
sweeeet
Well y'all. I'm stumped. So I want to unlock the vacation home design options for another player (it's just me using their house as an extra building). What do you have to do to build vacation homes on another profile?

•• FAQ: Unlocking Happy Home Paradise ••
To unlock the Happy Home Paradise DLC after purchase, you must
• Upgrade your tent to a house.
• Complete the DIY workshop with Tom Nook.
• Upgrade Resident Services to a building.
Tom Nook will then phone in to introduce you to Lottie to start the beginning sequences of the DLC. You may need to wait for a new day to roll over to get this cutscene.
what do i do if i villager is really angry at another villager :(
You can't do anything but hear what they're mad about, they'll just cool down by themselves after a bit.
Thank you! I did the workshop and finally got the call to meet Lottie. Now it's time to speedrun the most disappointing vacation homes possible. 😈
Hey I reset my island couple of months ago and since then I still haven’t been able to see the other part of Harvey’s island ?? I can only see his house with the photoshoot booth. Anyone know when it’s going to unlock ??
If I buy a physical used game cartridge, can I buy an HHP dlc digital code off eBay or will that not work?
•• FAQ: Unlocking Harvey's Commune ••
To unlock the Commune on Harvey's island, the following criteria must be met:
• K.K. Slider must have performed.
• You must have entered Photopia.
• You must have talked to Harv on his island.
If you have met these criteria, the day after, Harvey will send a mail notifying you to meet on his island to start unlocking the co-op shops.
You can afaik
There is no cafe in my museum does anyone possibly know why?
.t brewster || You need to unlock it first. See below for requirements 
•• Brewster & The Roost ••
https://cestislife.github.io/img/brewster.png
Yes I know that but whenever I go to kappns island Brewster is never there
I just want to know if that has happened to anyone else
You saw Blather's with the thinking sequence, and he told you about Brewster?
(Blathers must tell you about Brewster before you'll see him on Kapp'n islands. So if you went to a Kapp'n island first, then you would not see Brewster yet. You would need to wait til the next day, then make sure to speak with Blathers first.)
This might sound really dumb but.. can villagers bury gyroid fragments?
I don't believe villagers can bury anything
Villagers won't bury anything
I keep digging up gyroids that I haven't buried
Villagers don't bury them, do you share the island with anyone else? Has it recently rained?
I dont share the island, and it rained a few days ago but as I said I never buried any gyroid fragments
The day after it rains sometimes they will spawn
Ah I see, thank you
Does Leif ever give more than 20 bells for each weed? Everytime he visits its always 20
Nope, his price is always 20 bells per weed
Oh okay, thanks :)
What personality is bettina?
normal! For villager info you can go to #bot-commands and type in /villager and you'll have the option to input a name for a nice lil summary of em
Oh thanks for that
Does anyone have any tips on how to quickly/easily get my island to 3 stars?
•• Island Rating ••
• You unlock K.K. Slider concerts and the Island Designer app (terraforming) once you achieve your first 3-star rating.
• You obtain the Golden Watering Can DIY once you achieve your first 5-star rating. Also, lilies-of-the-valley can spawn as long as your island keeps its 5-star rating!
•• How do I get a 3- or 5-star rating? ••
• The basic idea is to fill your island with plants and furniture, as Isabelle usually suggests. So if she says to add flowers, do it - or at least, wait for them to be fully bloomed (to get the max points from them) ; Same thing if she hints at adding furniture.
does anyone know what this piece of furniture is called?
thank you sm i’ve been looking forever
Can I move the campsite after placing it?
Yes. You can move everything except Resident Services (maybe you unlock moving things after reaching three stars?). You can talk to Tom about moving things - villager homes, campsite, museum, shops, etc
Okay tysm!!
You can’t move the plaza at all. That’s why people can be so picky about where it is when they start their island
That’s what I meant that you can’t but the brackets probably made it sound like you could after three stars, rather than you might be able to move things after three stars 😂
Ah.
English amirite? 😜
My brain works better than my typing on a regular basis 😂
is there any way to track my mailbox? i forgot where i put it :/
Unfortunately if you’ve picked it up and placed it down you just gotta run around for it
I believe the unread Mail makes a pinging noise. Although idk if that’s something that can help identify where the mailbox is
when does shooting stars start?
thank u! i turned my volume up and just ran around and found it lol
Shooting stars can happen from 7pm-4am
alright then, ty
Oh nice. Glad a spontaneous suggestion worked out! /pos
Can the campsite have a visitor on December 24 or 25? Or not bc of holidays
Does anyone know if the gyroid Luna has that pours out fog is a thing in ACNH? Like i could bury a fragment and get it
How do I build/unlock the first bridge?
Unobtainable.
Follow what Tom Nook says, he will eventually ask you to craft one. (This is only for the first bridge, subsequent ones you just buy).
dang it i really wanted one
is there a way to stop my flowers from breeding and growing everywhere? I have a bunch of flowers and I'm trying to remove them but they keep growing back
iirc you can place a custom design (or a transparent one) on the ground around the flowers so they won't grow!
ok, would destroying them by running over them/picking them also slow down the growth for a couple days?
They can spawn as soon as there is a coloured bud and can grow if there's rain or they're watered. Fences, custom designs for flooring, or dumping them on the beaches will stop it
I haven't really explored custom designs so much until now. Is there a site anyone could recommend that has a catalog of different ones to look thru for codes?
Not so much a site but there's plenty in #path-codes or #misc-pattern-codes and you can ask in #custom-design-help🎨. I've scrolled Google Images/Pinterest a lot too
I've Google a fair bit, just wasn't sure if there might be a better way. I'll try Pintrest.
How do I get the tree bounty big tree recipes? Is it balloons?
Yes, balloons.
Hallo, for mush recipes for fall, have those started spawning? Are they via balloons or other means?
Ahh so balloons bottles and neighbors .. Pinecones will spawn as sticks? drop out of trees yeah?
Also sorry lol, I appreciate your attempt to help me
Thanks will go back to the grind than
is there any consequence to time travelling backwards?
like my progress since that day being erased
You will never lose progress travelling backwards, however it can reset your Nook Miles streak and travelling forwards can spawn more weeds/flowers. If you travel forward then turnips will spoil and anything past the Sunday/Monday of the week forward or ahead will reset the NPC calendar
But there aren't really any consequences. I've been travelling back and forth between yesterday and today for two days to obtain things 😂
i dont know what any of those things mean except for the nook miles streak, but I already broke that when I time travelled forward a month to catch new fish
sounds good tho, I'll time travel back
Basically there's no real consequence to time travelling at all
How long does a villager have to be around before they can decide to move?
so I just got an axe and it actually cut down a tree
does the stump regrow or is there a way to get rid of it
It won't regrow. You can use a shovel to dig it up. (Some bugs only spawn on tree stumps too)
It’s not really determinant on time. Only the most recent can’t ask to move out
You also have to have talked to them at least once too.
will planting flowers on the beach stop them from growing?

Ah sorry, my bad
Sorry if I sound stupid, how do I remove trees….?
There are two options:
- Use an axe to chop the tree down to a stump, then use a shovel to dig up the stump
- Or you can just eat a piece of fruit and you’ll be able to dig up the full tree with a shovel
Thank you!!
When i want to invite a amiibo villager to my island, do i really need to complete the tasks they give me?
Do you??
iirc you do, you'll need to craft them the items the ask for in the 3 days!
Okay thanks!
Hey everyone! I’ve been playing AHNH for some time, but I have two questions:
- Can you decide what a villager is wearing? Sometimes they put on a clothing item I gifted them, but not always and they often switch back to something else.
- Can You still meet new potential villagers on nook ticket islands even if your island is already full?
Thanks a lot ❤️
- Not really, they'll randomly wear what's in their wardrobe
- No, you can only find new villagers on mystery islands if you have an empty housing plot available
Okay thanks!!
Hi Guy. I am french and i search to send my turnip near 90n

hey does anybody have a list of furniture that doesn't contain diys, fish and bug models and painting and such, only those that can be bought? Thanks in advance
or, where to find such a list
You can use catalogue.ac and fiddle with the filter options (the funnel icon)
For example, all furniture items that can be bought from Nook's Cranny: https://catalogue.ac/?s=c3JjPW5vb2tfc3RvcmU7Y2F0ZWdvcnk9aG91c2V3YXJlczptaXNjOndhbGxfbW91bnRlZDpjZWlsaW5n
tysm! So sorry, follow up question - in the option in the funnel icon, I actually can't find a criteria that says buyable only/sold at Nooks only. Am I missing something?
For buyable, the "orderable" checkmark is the closest you can find, and under the source filter, you can find shops like Nook's Cranny
Can anyone help? I'm brand new to animal crossing (sorta I've been playing since last year but my island still sucks) and I need tips.
donate fossils then if you get doubles, sell them for bells,
Sea creature also sell for many bells
if you play you can unlock new things in the nookphone
How do people make the dreamy lists, where you see your favourite villagers next to eachother like in the looking_for_villager thread? Is it an app or is it photoshop or something?
then you can use these bells to buy new stuff for your island
Follow up-
Is there any way to get rid of flowers from spawning? I usually time travel for villagers to move out and items I ordered etc. And flowers build up ALOT such as this
Invisible paths, fencing, dump them on the beach
i don’t think so just use a shovel or put a fence around them
Ty both
flowers are pretty i think they help with island rating i’m unsure though
I'm trying to get my island rating up but I hate these flowers I have, I'd rather have mums and lilys
Im having a hard time getting ner residents, is this a me problem or am i having bad RNG?
i havent come across a single animal on nook miles islands
hi! frita asked me if she should leave the island so i said yes. should i be searching her replacement now? or should i wait for tomorrow?
No, the day after when you have an open plot @azure sparrow
You can only invite a villager to move in when you have an open plot, i.e. there is no house on the space. Being in boxes will not allow you to invite anyone

@silk salmon It's a wheat field, furniture item - https://nookipedia.com/wiki/Item:Wheat_Field_(New_Horizons)
The Wheat Field is a houseware item in Animal Crossing: New Horizons introduced in the 2.0 Free Update. The player can walk through this item. As an outdoor item, it will provide an additional 0.5 development points towards the island rating.
The Wheat Field can be obtained from either Nook's Cranny for 1,300 Bells or the Paradise Planning offi...
whats this item?
i tried to find it on ACNH.Guide with keywords like ice cream/icecream, cone, giant, etc
but couldnt find it
ty \o/
You're right, sorry I time travel to much 🤣 I removed my answers
Also: How do people make the dreamy lists, where you see your favourite villagers next to eachother like in the looking_for_villager thread? Is it an app or is it photoshop or something?
I believe the ACNH.Guide app is a popular one for making those sort of lists. Although many people just use something like photoshop as well 
Thanks!!
hello what happens to a dream address when I cancel my nintendo online subscription?
Nothing, it stays there
No worries you’re good! You’re not in trouble!
Hi! Sorry! Do turnips need to be unlocked?
Odd question does using a warp pipe refresh the area ?
The same way as going into a building does
Turnips are unlocked as soon as you've built Nook's Cranny! Daisy Mae will show up to sell them from 5 am-12 pm Sundays
Can residents move out on Saturdays?
I believe so if you haven't unlocked K.K. yet. Residents never ask to move out when K.K. is visiting
That sucks
after the first photo, you must talk to the villager on 10 different days before the game even rolls to check whether you will get their photo or not (the day you talked to the villager to get their photo is included in the 10 days).
You have to speak to them at least once every day for 10 days
Man I'm trying to get my villagers to leave but they will NOT lol
What are the days they won't leave? Any NPC visit or just KK? For example will they ask to leave if Celeste or Redd is in town?
And I know birthdays make it so they won't move out but what other kinds of days?
Holidays like Xmas and Halloween?
They won't ask during events or when KK is visiting. Other regular NPC visits won't affect it
can other people find the furniture hiding in your trees?
I’m placing a custom path design and I have to open the custom design app, place it once and then close it again. Is there an easier way to do this?
I don’t think so
If you purchase the Custom Design Path Permit, you can open the path tool > select the + sign > select your custom design. From there, you can use it over and over, and you wouldn’t need to reopen anything unless you need to switch to a different path.
Thanks!
I believe coins and furniture can still fall from trees in multiplayer, just no wasps iirc
Can you add people through nintendo online on this server
Yup! That’s what #494386287953051658 is for
It's really cloudy on my island. Does that mean it's going to rain?
help so I was planting fruits but is this too close to eachother???
I’m pretty sure they will not grow as they are too close,I’d leave a 1 space between each tree! So you can harvest them too
ohh thank you so much
Np!
I have a 3 star island. My first question is when does Kapp'n come and for 60 items to blathers do I have to stick to one fossil bug or creature to get Crazy Redd?
Kapp'n should appear 1 day after the concert
alr and my last question is do I have to stick to one bug fossil or fish
nope, i think it is collective
I’ve asked my 3 plot villagers to move in, and have built my bridge. I’m going to start placing the 3 plots. Is there a way to know which villager will go into which plot? I want certain ones to live in certain places
no its random I think
i think 1st one you can invite on mystery islands
2nd and 3rd are random i think
by mystery islands i mean the one you get to with the tickets
but you can get your desired villager
Do the items the plot requires correlate with the personality that’ll go in there? Like will the lazy always be, say, the log furniture?
But plot number is random…
I’ve invited Flurry (normal), Apple (Peppy), Beau (Lazy). In that order. I haven’t placed any plots yet.
I was wondering, if I place plot 1, it is the birdhouse requirement one, will that always be a certain personality?
Ok ty
my first 3 villager were all peppy i think
Apparently order is Lazy - Normal - Peppy, i didn't know that
it is 60 donations total
I know
you don't need 60 of a certain type
ohhh ty
it's pretty hard to get 60 of certain type
ya true
Embedded not working but it lists the furniture for each plot
As for starter villagers you can choose them but it's 1 move in at a time - the last two won't be random if you just wait in between invites.
And they will never be all three peppy, you will always have peppy, normal, and lazy.
yes, you're right i just presumed they were peppy because of the colour lmao
I’m new any tips?
How do I get that little café in my museum like I see on other people's island?
•• Brewster & The Roost ••
https://cestislife.github.io/img/brewster.png
Does the Stacked items in my house's storage count as only one item per entire stack, or does it count every single one? If you don't mind please @ me cause I am busy doing stuff real soon
If you have a stack of 30 it counts as one space
1 stack= 1 space
If I have a large spike with turnips and I turn my switch clock back but don’t boot up the game until I get back to the time I checked, will I lose the large spike?
No right since I won’t be booting up the game while the time is behind?
I have to leave to get lunch and I don’t want to waste time during the spike.
If you change your clock backwards afaik it should change your pattern.
Even if I don’t boot up the game while the time is backwards?
Yes, some people had their turnip rotten because of sibling changing the clock for another game and putting it back
Shoot. I already did it. I had 535, too
Welp too bad
How can I tell what my native flower is for my island
Oh I guess I haven't donated art yet
If you sort your diy by time order the first flower wreath should be from your native 
When/where can I buy wheat starts?
Leif sells it as any other vegetable, you might need 3 stars, you can also find some on Kapp'n island (also requires 3 stars)
Ok thank you!!
@smoky rapids many thanks <3
<@&494448231036747777>
How do I know if I have a complete fossil collection?
Blathers will tell you when you give him the last fossil(s), you can also check your fossil exhibits and see if any are empty
You can also compare your fossils list in the catalogue with a full list
Ok thanks. They look like they are all full but I haven't gotten that message. I'll try comparing just to double check.
doesn't he give you a poster for a full collection or was that a dif event?
Ah, yes, indeed, that was added with version 2.0 ; I totally forgot those
Couldn't remember if I was having a fever dream about that lol
helloo! im just wondering. what does umbrellas go under in these chanels? are they clothing? i want to post a looking for post so i thought i would ask before posting! 
#clothing-trade, it's in the pinned messages of the channel
oh my god! sorry! im blind haha, i looked in every channel and was sure there was no info there, must have scrolled past it. thank you! <3
Ok I've done 20 vacation homes and Niko hasn't taught me how to make pillars yet. What am I missing here?
you gotta go upstairs and work at his workdesk
I am just wondering what do you have to do to make residential services a building and not a tent
Is there anything else to it? I just have a vaulting pole I didn't need or want now.
Build the museum and when the fifth villager moved in tom will announce its upgrading and it will be closed the next day for construction
How to make the grass that brown color, for a path?
Well. None of that was actually involved in unlocking pillars. I just advanced to another day, went to check the box and got the cutscene for it as soon as I got to the island. Just in case somebody else needs to know.
Grass color changes gradually
Why arent these saplings growing?
thank ya 👍
tbh i dont really remember how i unlocked the pillars specifically, i just know once they are unlocked if u got to the workdesk upstairs hell give you variations of it if you drop off materials in his box. i would say google explains it better than i do
What means „haven a plot avaible“ when u wanna let villagers move in?
An empty unsold housing plot
Hii does sending letters to villagers help increase friendship levels? I'm looking for ways to boost friendships without gifting items that junk up their house
To increase friendship without cluttering their house, gift them items they don't store, like fruits or crops (full list: https://chibisnorlax.github.io/acnhfaq/villagers/gifting/#is-there-any-gameplay-related-benefit-to-gifting-villagers)
And if you're trying to get their photo, a gift worth 750 bells or more is needed, so 2 non-native fruits or 3 coconuts/crops in wrapping paper will do
THANK YOU <3
ugh been to islands literally all day and no new residents
They only appear there if you have an unsold empty plot on your island
You'll be able to buy them from Tom Nook
nook shop?
No, Tom Nook himself in Resident Services, ask him to "sell some land"
i dont have the option :(
Has your 6th animal villager (the campsite visitor) fully moved in? IIRC, the option becomes available after that
So I'm grinding for one of my villagers photo, and I have at least 100 friendship points with them, how much do I need to get the photo?
At least 150 points
Possibly dumb question, but is there a way to buy a specific character's amiibo online? I mean like official Nintedo ones
They typically come in packs of 3 or 6 if you’re buying directly from an official retailer. But you may be able to find individual cards for sale through third-party sellers, since many people try to sell their duplicate cards ^^
Okay so it is like a blind box, I thought a weird thing was going on, thank you
Yes, if you purchased an official pack, it’ll be 3 or 6 depending on if it’s North America or Europe, I believe
(The 3-packs have 1 special NPC and 2 villagers. 6-packs have 1 special NPC and 5 villagers)
What.... I just got it😑
Is it true that the most recent villager that moved in will never ask to move?
The only cards that are gonna not be randomized are the Sanrio ones, those will always have one of each character in the set
Hey how do you make a shovel?
I restarted my island - my app is still connected to my old one (nooklink) - how do I re pair it to the new island?
First, you need to re-enable NookLink on the new island (press the minus button from the title screen > follow the prompts for NookLink).
Then, in your Nintendo Switch Online app (irl phone), go to Settings > Change Players
Do you have the recipe for it?
Thanks much meg
Some items give more points than other. Details here https://chibisnorlax.github.io/acnhfaq/island-dev/rating/#development-points
What's the most up to date method to move villagers out?
Hi i am trying to make a rock garden does anyone know if rocks spawn on weeds
No,I don’t know how to get it
This is false, this will not affect the rate at which they move out
.t moveout This is the most efficient method, really, but it's rng
•• How to Move Out Villagers ••
• Read Yue's Comprehensive Move-Out Handbook https://yuexr.github.io/acnh/moveout to understand how the thought bubble move-out process works.
• Which villagers can ask to move out?: https://tinyurl.com/yale3ggw
After the museum tent is built, visit and speak to Blathers — he should give you the recipe for a flimsy shovel at that point.
(and once you learn that recipe, then you just need to have enough materials for it in your pocket and you should be able to craft it at any DIY workbench)
Weeds have priority over rocks so you do want to plant at least 150 before spawning rocks
Tysm
guys
a lily-of-the-valley appeared on a cliff
i never planted anything like it
what does it mean..
it means you have a 5* island!
.t lotv
ohh fr? wow
ty
Do you lose stuff you gained if your island rating drops to 2?
Nope, everything you've unlocked will stay unlocked!
Tyy
so, i checked with isabelle and she says the rating is 4, as i thought
so i think the lily of the valley might be a glitch
You might’ve had a fifth star long enough for one to spawn and then something happened that decreased your rating
(More weeds, dropped items, etc)
the golden shovel diy is the reward you get for 5 stars, right?
recently i found one in a diy mystery bags/yardsale thing and maybe it made the game think i have 5 stars?
Hey how do you make a flimsy axe?
The golden watering can is the DIY you get for 5 stars
After you give 2 critters to Tom Nook, he will give you the Flimsy Axe DIY recipe.
Also, learning the recipe for the golden shovel (or the golden watering can) will not affect your game’s ability to evaluate your island rating. It’s most likely as Yay mentioned, that you briefly had 5 stars, but after the daily weeds, etc. you fell below that threshold again 
but i thought you had to decorate the island so much to get 5 stars
i always ask Isabelle about it and she always says 4 stars and says to decorate more
It’s hard for me to tell you exactly what caused it without more info. But it sounds like you might just be right on that line.
what do you mean right on that line?
I've been playing since April and have 2 best friends in game. I logged on 3 days ago and my best friend app was gone and read i had to talk to Orville to get app again. I talked to Orville to get the app again and still no 2 friends. I invited one to my island today by dodo code and we added each other again. That friend now has 2 of me on their friends list and one even has an older hair style. Anyone have this sort of experience in game? Just wondering what I did. 🤔
Like 4 stars but very close to 5. If you placed a few extra things, it could’ve been enough to bump you up to 5 stars, at least temporarily.
Your rating should update immediately, so you can try placing some items and go ask Isabelle again. And just keep trying til it bumps up to 5 again^^
thanks
ill try 😭
should i just follow isabelle’s advices?
Yep!
In case you’d like some more details on the points: https://chibisnorlax.github.io/acnhfaq/island-dev/rating/
Hey how do you get ladders?
Did you restart your island at some point? If so, that would be why. Since it’s tied to your Nintendo account, it never removes the old character, your friends will just have multiple copies of you if you restarted
Not that I know of, however I almost dropped it and grabbed it real fast and might have manhandled the buttons if that makes any sense at all. I didn't restart it in the sense of a blank island. Its all the same decor, villages, items, etc. The only thing different I did was download the nintendo app to my phone so it would be easier to talk with friends.
Interesting! I’ve only known that to happen when people restart, but I’m sure there’s a similar explanation that I’m just unable to think of at the moment lol
Yeah I've been researching it, but I guess it isn't that big of a deal now. As long as I still have my things lol, and can reconnect with my fremds.... :3
So I've been trying to buy the phone case customization kit, but every time I buy it, it's not in my inventory. Is this an issue or have I just not hit a certain checkpoint in developing my island so that I can use it, or is this completely user error?
Is it in your mailbox? I think that is how it is delivered next morning.
Ooooo well now I'll have a few 😅
🤣
what do i have to do to unlock terraformer (or whatever its called), i only just got my first camper
Hello! Can someone help me get rid of some flowers/weeds on my island? I’m happy to pay in bells and NMTS just name your price
This channel is for questions on game mechanics, you'll want to ask/look in #player-services
Thanks Johnny
You unlock the ability to buy permits for terraforming after you hit a 3 star rating, after KK has played a show on your island
right ok ty
Not sure where else to ask this. I am using my switch and I want to take the joycons off of it. When I am on the home screen the joycons stay connected and I can use them disconnected from the switch but as soon as I go into animal crossing, they disconnect.
They work when on the switch though. Any ideas?
Hmm have you tried checking if your joycons need an update? You can find it under your Switch Settings/Controllers and Sensors/Update Controllers.
Trying that now.
I plan to call Nintendo tomorrow if no one here can help
That was it. Thank you so much ❤️
Does time traveling backwards reset weed or flower growth?
No
Nope
When does Mabels shop open and in your opinion what would be the best wall and floor for a neon light room
For your second question, better asked in #island-designs
emergency - I had a 3 star island but it dropped to 2 star, does it still count?!
You won’t lose any of the three star island rewards and you can plant a few more flowers/place a few more furnitures to get it back to three
is there an ordinance for villagers to collect tree branches?
like how there is with weeds
No
If I time travel forward to the next day for a villager to move in, then time travel back to current time, will the villager movie in or what? (Sorry, I'm very new)
What stage is the house in? I.e. is it sold, or is there someone in boxes, or just completely empty
I'm going to have it sold via trading, then probably go forward a day for it to be built and moved in but I dunno, I don't time travel usually
maybe someone planted the lily-of-the-valley on my cliff to troll me
OTL
is that possible?
i really dont understand why i have that flower there
That didn't really answer my question aha, so it's completely empty at the moment?
Possible yes, but it's more likely that you got 5 stars, then made some rearrangements that dropped down your rating
Sorry-- at the moment it's empty but it'll be sold before I go to time travel again, because I'm waiting for a trade to go through
my island is not at all like those nice detailed islands you see on the internet though :^( there are so many areas that are just raw nature. so idk why or how it could have been 5 stars at any point
Ok so after you get the villager to say they're moving in, the plot will be marked as sold. Then you can time travel 2 days for them to be fully moved in, then you can return to today
alright, thank you so much!
It doesn't have to be fully detailed, nature counts to your rating as well. Check with Isabelle
she just says to decorate the island more because its lacking in scenery
OTL
but no amount of decorating seems enough for her
i mean??? im really confused tbh
because i have to decorate more to get it to 5 stars… but apparently i had 5 stars before with LESS decoration?
i just wanted to go back to 5 stars even temporarily just to get the golden watering can reward and whatever other reward/dialogue/cutscene/miles achievement there is when you get 5 stars
i just dont understand how it could have dropped so intensely so fast, without me really doing anything, and its not going back to 5 stars no matter what i do, even decorating MORE and adding MORE nature than it had before
im so confused and frustrated with this its making me want to cry tbh
Not sure what else to tell you. If you had visitors, I suppose someone could have planted a random one on your island. That’s the only other explanation I can think of, if you’re certain that you’re nowhere near 5 stars.
As for trying to get there now, I recommend trying to use items that will maximize your bonus points. For example: An item that is considered to be outdoor furniture, that is at least size 3x1, and is priced 20k and above will give you 6.5 points! (Many of the items in Nook Miles Redemption can fit this description, such as the gazebo and pergola)
Would it be possible to keep a open plot infinity by time traveling back few hours in the same day
Yes, if you hit 5AM then it's gone tho (typically)
How many villagers cany you get in an island?
10 NPC villagers, 8 characters of your own if you want to have that many accounts
Thanks
Can you get 10 villagers in your island?
Yes. That is the max number of villagers you can have
Cool
does the online copy of the game takes more storage than the physical copy?
No they are the same size as the physical copy
I have a question when I dream of random people island it gives me a error code message
What does it mean
What's the error message
Helloo does anyone have an iron table or could make one for me..? :/ id give u the stuff which is needed for the diy c: thanks in forward 
It tells me that unable to connect to the Internet but the thing is I’m already connected to the Internet
It won’t let visit island
What should I do about it
Helloo, does anyone have all the fruits and roses seeds??
Do you have a nintendo online subscription?
Yeah
Like you can do online play with others?
I have fruits but roses sowwi
Yeah I can join other people island but not in dream island
For some reason it won’t let me join dream island
Try closing the game then open it again to try again
Is it possible to buy roses at your island?
Do you really want the seeds or will the flowers do cause i'm trying to get rid of some roses
The flowers will do, i just want to farm them

Hello all. My tools are not lasting long at all. How long till I can make better tools? I’m only on day 4 🙂
You can go to your nook stop and redeem the pretty good tools recipes for 3,000 miles
Ohh thank you so much!
how much gb is the physical copy? and if they are the same size why their gb somewhat different
I guesss you can sell a physical copy if you don’t want to play anymore lol but I prefer digital copies because then I don’t have to mess around with cartridges
but like if physical copy has their own storage, it will still take the storage thou right, coz it's still huge. So there isn't any difference from buying digital?
u drop them if u want to give nmts. turnips u can try to aim t make good money with them by following the stock market of it. it can be either a miss or a hit. time travel will spoil the turnips.
Say this in #flower-plants-trade
No? (If I’m hearing correctly anyway) Regardless of how you play game data is always saved in the console
(As for your original question, I’m reading stuff that say physical games take less space. If you’d like me to test and confirm I can. I currently own both the game card and digital version of ACNH /nf)
well if that's true then, i guess i should have got the physical copy since it takes less storage than digital. Coz my storage is like almost packed coz of this game. and i thought it was coz of the game content+expansion. And not the digital shop itself
Have you expanded your storage with a MicroSD? You can get one of those and offload some games and game data onto it. I have one of those. There’s some specially formatted for the Nintendo Switch that you can find online.
hello, I have unlocked nooks cranny and made my tent a house but i never got the able sisters. Is there a way to get them?
•• FAQ: Unlocking the Able Sisters (Tailors/Clothing Shop) ••
You must buy at least one item from Mabel’s pop-up stand in Resident Services on two separate visits on your own island. Mabel will mention building the shop on her next (third) visit.
NOTE: You do not need to spend 5,000 bells as some sources say. You just have to buy at least one item during each of Mabel’s visits.
but the thing os they never came to my island. I stopped playing for a while after i opend the cranny and they dont show up to the plaza
Only Mabel (the blue one) will show up. And she’s just included in the normal visiting NPC rotation. She’s prioritized on weekends if you don’t have KK yet
Also have you walked into nooks cranny since it opened and got the cutscene where Mabel is telling to Timmy and Tommy?
i have been to nooks cranny and she wasnt there
I was thinking about it but not so sure
Is there anything I should be doing to help progress myself other than the advice Tom gives me? I just started the game
Really helpful thank you!
Hey! i’m new to animal crossing and i was wondering how can i get the turnips? i have never see one in game but i can sell them in nook’s cranny, so i want to know how to get them hahah
You purchase them from Daisy Mae, who will be on your island to sell turnips every Sunday from 5am til 12pm noon.
ohhh makes sense! tysm 
Why can't I place? It's the tailors im trying to move
I believe you need at least one space between structures. And technically, where you’re trying now, those corners are touching
Oh so do I have to move it, then move it again?
I’m not sure what you mean by that.
Like, do I have to move it to the beach,so then the tailors won't be in the way, then I can move it to where I want
Yes, I believe so. It looks like that’s the only thing “in the way”
Are you able to plant/grow turnips or only buy from Daisy Mae and sell?
Only buy from Daisy then sell to Tommie and Timmie
do turnips spoil if i tt backwards? i forgot the buy price :X
Yes, they will spoil if you tt backwards at all, even just 1 minute!
ahhh T__T thank you though
Has KK performed?
When did KK perform? You should get the announcement from Isabelle the day after that first performance.
today
There ya go then. Just need to wait one more day!
dang
Isabelle will let you know about Kapp’n tomorrow 
welp I'll just work on brewster then

What’s re people doing with gyroids? Because I kind of…hate them 😆
The gyroids dance and make noise in sync with any music playing nearby, so some people like to decorate with them. But that’s totally up to you! You can sell them if you don’t want them 
Is anyone able to tell me if this is clear or sunny?
It looks like a mix, probably because your in the middle of the hour at the moment. If you’re asking because you’re trying to track the weather pattern, it’s recommended to check at the top of the hour for best accuracy
I've been trying to get this dumb weather pattern for like 3 weeks and still no luck 😔
Thanks for the help, I'll try to get on the hour from now on
No problem! It often helps if you have dates for special weather events as well, like meteor showers 
I try everything step by step no one have the bubble to move out 😦
Just so we’re on the same page, can you describe the “step by step” process that you’ve been trying?
Also, do you have at least 6 villagers?
Tt forwards 1 month no event dont speak to anyone if no bubble quit and forwards one day and yes i have 8
And you have spoken to all your villagers before you skipped ahead by 1 month? If so, then that’s the correct process and it may just take some time!
That being said, if you continue going forward day by day and you see no bubbles for 15 days, I recommend that you restart the process. So, re-sync to real time, speak to all your villagers, and then follow the same method.

Cant react to giveaway?
Can you see the emoji reaction, and just can’t click it? Or do you not see one at all?
no i cant
quickest way to get money on first days? is it really fish,catch, craft repeat all day 
sell fruit
i only have my native
LOTS of fruit
and no nmt
How to MAKE BELLS, the SIMPLE Way:
- Play the stalk market: buy turnips at a low price and sell them high.
- Dive and catch sea creatures to sell back to Nook's Cranny.
- Grow stuff (fruits, flowers, pumpkins, etc) and sell to Nook's Cranny.
- If you have NSO (Nintendo Switch Online), trade with other players by visiting the trade channels in this server and seeing where to sell your services or goods!
i suppose your wasps and your natives to plant more
i don’t have dive suit that’d be to convient
i have never once seen a turnip lmao
not see one at all
If you can’t see it at all, go to your user setting and make sure you have emoji reactions enabled
they are, i use them all the time
If you don’t see the emote on the latest giveaway (as shown in the image below), then I’d recommend that you DM ModMail to speak with a moderator about it, as I’m not sure why you wouldn’t have that option sorry!
lol welp, guess we know it’s working then. Yeah, def try speaking with a mod @lapis terrace. They may have a better answer for ya!
Hey hey hey! Please send me a Direct Message to contact the staff!
ive sent a message already ^w^
Okay!
again thank you! i just wanted to bring that to light
making sure, redd comes next day after blathers accepts art, and how many items to get brewster
?
How do I find that one turnip lady?
She comes Sunday mornings only and if you have built nook's cranny, if you meet this conditions, just a game of hide and seek 
Yes I did have everything
One item in each category (insect, fish, sea creature fossil and art) and having unlocked kapp'n
As I said she was wandering somewhere from 5am to 12pm,just have to check you whole island
oh just that
Also, does redd come the next day - btw - I have 3 stars
He should come the day or following day after upgrading your museum. If you missed him he comes once every two week + his shop on harv's island updates every week
•• Island Residents ••
• Max # of Villagers (animals): 10
• Max # of Players (alt accounts, humans): 8
Making an alternate profile on the same Switch device will
• NOT give you another island to play on. One island per console.
• NOT give you more custom design slots.
Gotchu
Wdym upgrading museum?
like to a full museum, I have
From tent to building, if you are 2.0 or later version
So you have redd unlocked
Oh so he comes today
Wait downloaded, did you upgrade the museum, before or after 2.0?
with brewster and the art exhibit?
You have the art exhibit?
no I just mean im getting redd, blathers just told me he is allowing art pieces
Yes so he is unlocked. How long ago was that?
so I can get brewster
Yes you can
Today
Once you give an art piece he can become available, sorry for any confusion
Ohhh its totally fine
My other question may be similar, but does redd come tommorow since blathers told me he is allowing it?
@smoky rapids Ma'am? ( sorry for the ping )
He should as I stated earlier today or the following day
If you miss him he'll show every 2 weeks at least + harv's plaza
Ohh Tysm!!! Very sorry for not looking back!
It’s been a while since I’ve played but can you add other people to renovate your island like add lakes and terraforming etc??
Cause I got 4 acres of land to fill
Only island residents can, no guests. Each island resident must also buy their own permits.
Awh man ok thanks anyways
How do you use Sanrio amibo to get the furniture?
can i ask info about switch and acnh transferring on this channel? i basically am planning to buy a new switch because my switch lite is broken but idk if this is a good place to ask questions regarding the process
Scan them in at the ABD at resident services, or scan them into Photopia at Harv's Island, then the furniture will be available to order at the ABD
Here is fine for ACNH related transfers/questions yeah
Thank you!!
yes so my switch lite where i have my acnh is broken now. it doesnt open anymore and doesnt charge. i dont wanna pay hundreds of dollars just to fix it. because i wanna buy a new regular switch that isnt lite. however, im wondering how ill be able to transfer my acnh island from the lite to a new regular switch im going to buy
So a regular transfer between two switches will require you to have access to the old one to download the island transfer tool and manually transfer the island to the new switch. However, because your old switch broke, you will qualify for a cloud transfer, where a nintendo employee will help/manually transfer your old island over, provided you had it backed up. Did you back your old island up?
how do you back your old island up? im not sure if i have. but if i know how it works maybe ill remember if i did it? its been a few months since my switch broke.
Hi sorry to interrupt but I currently have the digital copy of ACNH - if I buy a physical copy does that mean 2 saves/islands, or is it 1 island per 1 switch?
(I don't wanna reset but I'm burnt out lol)
Start menu, hit the minus button and you'll have the option through Tom Nook's menu of options. Unfortunately, if you did not do this, there is no way to recover the island or transfer it outside of a manual island transfer using both the old and new switch.
1 Island per switch only
Oh I'm sorry Nyx, I didn't mean to ping
Damn that sucks :(
It's okay !
thank u so much
Best of luck, if you do have a backup and cannot access the old switch contact Nintendo support and they can restore the island for you just inform them the switch broke (they only do this for a lost or broken switch)
If you get your staff application denied, can you reapply?
And can the selected applications for trial staff be from people of any age (inside the Discord terms of service, of course)?
This is more a question for our friend @lapis terrace , but just in short, you can reapply, and the age limit is just what meets ToS (so 13+ and you're good)
Ah, I see! My bad and thank you very much!
No worries! For any other questions about staff apps, Orvbot is best just for a clear and more.. detailed? answer. Best of luck :}
idk what to do, the moving out technique doesn’t work
What permissions do dodo code visitors have on my island? Can they cut down trees, take weeds, and that kind of stuff?
The only thing I'm aware of is I think they can harvest crops
No, they can't dig stuff up or make like plant changes, they need to be best friends for that. They can harvest trees and pick flowers + pick up items on the ground though (non decorations)
Yes, and crops. Anything pickable they can take
If they pick flowers, are they able to regrow?
It does work but it is heavy RNG based, it can take /forever/, and be super discouraging. Unfortunately a lot of it is just luck
Yes
Yes they rebloom in a few days
Matt 
Even if I have fast response you're a lot more detailed
How do you set a timer on your island when you've got visitors?
ok thanks, i just wasted so much time (2h) and only one villager got the bubble
What do you mean by that?
If you mean just setting a timer would the timer item not work?
People have been able to set a timer to find creatures etc., I don't know how they did it.
Oh, thats the bug hunting and fish catching tourneys, iirc they happen once a season
Do you need Nintendo online to do local play
No, they only need to be on the same WiFi for local play I think
Yup, local play is within the same room/wifi !
you can participate in the tournaments that happen once a season or use the timer item
Just to clarify: No, local play does not require a Nintendo Online subscription. It only requires 2 switches to be in the same room (meaning, no Internet connection is required either) 
what is the brown item called here
thank you:))
Weird, how come I didn't saw Daisy Mae today on my island? 😦
She only visits from 5am -12pm (noon). Is that when you checked?
oh, no, I just did. Thanks 🙂
why do some of my clothes not pop up in my wardrobe?
noob q: is there any reason to build timmy/tommy's shop?
tysm . now bought a timer from the shop.
How many trees can you plant without isabelle saying you have too many?
220
yes it's where u can get 3 items per day that u can buy, and where u can get some started diys, sell things, get wallpaper and flooring and better equipment like fishing rods and nets:)
Thank you!
ty. I'm hoping to get more outdoor furniture to use
In addition to bayla’s response, another reason is because you’ll need to build the shop before you can actually progress in the the game. The early days of the game have some set requirements like this which must be completed before the next stage ^^
Which clothes? And did you originally put them in your house storage, or something else possibly?
Where do you get the rare mushroom
I dug one up near a tree, as per the name says they're quite rare and that one is the only one I've found, so I'd say digging only, and possibly only near trees
Not sure if it's only cedar or other types
.t mushrooms || You can find them from dig spots near cedar or hardwood trees. Rarity depends on your island rating, but in general, yes they’re more rare than the others. See below more details, if needed 
does anyone know how to keep their island to a certain aesthetic?

I've seen the optimal villager move-out tips image here before
Was just wondering
After the initial month time-skip, if you don't see a villager with a thought bubble at all
Should you save & quit and then timeskip, or just close (without saving) and move to the next day?
I don’t think it matters at the end of the day but personally I’d save at least the first time so you don’t relive the bedhead cutscene every time
Ok thanks
Beat way to get money?
.t bells ⏬ There's a lot of different methods though
How to MAKE BELLS, the SIMPLE Way:
- Play the stalk market: buy turnips at a low price and sell them high.

Why r turnips such a big deal?
If you find someone with a nook's cranny buying at ~400-600 you can make like 2-3 million bells for a single full pocket trip
I have 2 spaces set up for rocks but, the rocks aren't spawning anywhere on my island. My place is pretty developed but, rocks aren't coming back in any open spaces. Is there a limit to how many items/trees that can decorate an island before they spawn?
If you destroyed all your 6 rocks in your island. They will respawn one rock per day in a random space
Yes, I understand that part. I have tt'd over a couple months to not have rocks spawn in my island at all. Not even in other spaces for me to rebreak them.
That is weird. How many rocks do you have right now in your island? And did you check every single space in your island
I have the other 4 thankfully! I've been checking and only have a few other places where they could go. Which is why I'm wondering if there's a limit in their programming. Like, maybe if there's too many decorations/trees they won't appear?

I am new to all this, how can I visit a local island or make friends to be able to travel in the internet?
Local play needs you to be in the same room as the other player. It’s like bluetooth. Online play requires you to have a nintendo online membership
Hi everyone! How do I change the nickname that my villagers call me?
You cannot. You have to wait until they approach you again to change it
I have the online membership, now how can I make friends to visit
Look in #island-hangouts🛩️🏝️ to see who’s open and then type their dodo codes when you choose online play to travel to their island
Thank you Avery/4 islands
