yes thank you!
how do you farm bells? im new to the game and i wanna try paying off the loan for 98k for the house
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!
For the latter part of Toy Day, can you just keep regifting whatever a villager gives you for the gift swap so you only have to buy one thing? Just multiple things of wrapping paper?
is there an islands fruit thats rarer than others
No, each island has the same odd for each fruit and sister fruit.
well are peaches high in demand?
That's for you to see, you can check in #fruit-vegetable-trade
Is Sahara in anyone’s island?
You will want to check #npc-visits - this channel is for mechanical questions about the game only
Thx
Would vines last forever when placed
Yes they will
yes they function as ladders and will stay until you remove them
Is there a special event going on in the dlc for christmas?
Not to my knowledge. Just the main game I believe
Okay thank you!
what should i gift my villagers for Christmas? is fruit okay? are clothes more appreciated?
If you’re talking about the event Jingle will give you everything you need. Beyond that, I think the normal gifting mechanics apply so it’s totally up to you
it’s more like what to gift instead of how to wrap the gifts…
What time is toy day
it starts at 5am on december 24th
anything happening at DJ KK events on the HHP island?
I got my dance moves but then... that's it? Can you unlock songs like when he gives concert on your main island?
There are some special event clothing items that will usually be available at the HHP apparel shop during those concerts and in the days leading up to it. Other than that, it just means you’ve completed the main storyline for HHP — so you’ll learn those new reactions, and you’ll be able to remodel villager homes on your main island now
^ he will also play every 2(?) weeks from then on, similar to kk appearing every week once "unlocked" on your island
Yeah my answer is about the “what” /neu
does anyone know what item this is called? like the little shelf
thank u!!
This is better for #acnh-chat⛱️ as this channel is for factual/mechanical info about acnh only and not opinionated questions!
hi. if i time traveled back will toy day still be here?
Yes
Can someone explain I’ve been in the game multiple times today and saw no event?
It starts December 24th at 5am , local. So for you if it's dec 23rd it's tomorrow
Ok thank you
if i time travel to earlier today (not a different day), will it still mess with my NookLink diary?
Is it possible to touch trade the Sanrio items?
So that you can reorder them yourself? No.
Does anyone know what this item circled is called? Been looking for it for a while now
rope partition
If an animal comes to your campsite and you ask them to move, do you get to choose who leaves ?
If they are visiting, no. They will tell you a villager has asked to leave. If you don't like who that is, then force close your game without ending the dialogue and you can reopen and they might request someone else. If you end the dialogue, it'll autosave and 'lock in' that villager no matter what
Campsite villagers who have been invited by amiibo allow you to choose who they kick out
Thanks. I don’t have any amibo so I’ll try the force quit thing
@ripe abyss thank you so much
How do I find the trading place
Please post your trade requests or advertisements in the appropriate trading channels!!
• Channel descriptions are listed in #server-info.
• Make sure to check #📑market-guide‼️ & the pins in each channel for specific trading rules!
You may need to select the Trade role in the Channels & Roles link up the top of the server to be able to see it
Where
id:customize Believe this should work
Be sure you read the pinned rules of each channel!
Wait so on the left
Yes
Thanks for that. It wouldn't let me link to the channel name 😂
Whatever role you are interested in obtaining. You'll need to scroll down for trade
There's a whole drop down under Marketplace for every sort of item you are interested in trading or receiving. You shouldn't be requesting here as this is for info/help. Check the #server-info or #📑market-guide‼️ channels for more information about the channels 🙂
Yup
Then what
Then you select whatever channel matches what item/s you are trading or looking for. e.g. if you're looking for fruit, you go to #fruit-vegetable-trade or if you're after a type of chair, it'd be #furniture-trade
Does toy day have a special weather pattern?
As far as I know, it will always be sunny
Do you have to visit other people’s islands to find wheat and sugar cane? Or are those two things that you eventually come across taking the boat tours?
Maybe I read about it being sunny in Southern, snowing in Northern. Trying to find the page I visited the other day
The setting that Toy Day undergoes is dependent on hemisphere settings, since this event takes place in both winter and summer. On Northern Hemisphere islands, it will be snowing all day on Toy Day and the background music will be softer and use jingle bells. Villagers will tell the player to stay warm and comment on the freezing temperatures. On Southern Hemisphere islands, it will be sunny on Toy Day and the music will be more vibrant and use extra percussion. Villagers will remind the player about the heat and to stay in the cool. from https://nookipedia.com/wiki/Toy_Day
Toy Day is an event in the Animal Crossing series that takes place on December 24. It is based on Christmas and the holiday season and features Jingle, a reindeer who delivers presents. In games prior to Animal Crossing: New Leaf, Toy Day is the sole source of items from the Jingle Series.
I would've remembered it always being sunny because I'm southern, so I'm sorry for the mistake
I think you can come across most things but I know there are some fruits you have to trade for, so the farming items might be the same. Probably much faster to simply visit other people than keep trying on tours!
what’s the fastest way to get diys
also if I take travel forward a day can I time travel back again?
Daily beach bottle
3 x villagers crafting per day
Island tour/s (Kapp'n's tours will give you one)
If you have the Happy Homes DLC, you can get two a day from there.
Or ask in #diy-trade for what you're after
tysmmm
Of course you can
so it won’t break my game if I put it to the 24th if it’s the 25th on my game?
Not at all
like it’ll still save my progress?
Yep. You don't lose any progress going backwards. It means you'll be able to do the Toy Day deliveries again
tysm :))
Do I have to have a nintendo membership to visit other islands than those with the miles ticket?
If you want to visit other people, you don't need to have a membership to visit locally (i.e. in the same room as you). If you want to visit someone 'online', then yes, you do
How does that wirk locally? I just saw some friend codes here and thought that I could visit the islands 🤭
You need to be in the same room/next to each other basically. When you speak to Orville at the airport and ask to visit someone, you'd choose the 'local' option rather than the online play choice
So if you live with someone with AC or have a real life friend who plays, then you can travel to their island by sitting near each other. But if someone's got a code here to visit online and you don't have a membership, you won't be able to use it
Thanks, Kami! That helps me a lot. I didn‘t understand this local mode before.
how do I get rid of stumps
Use a shovel to dig it up
tyyyy
I didn't have online for a good ~nine months so I got very good at meeting up with a real life best friend for local gameplay for everything 😂
😃👍🏼 I don‘t know someone who plays that aswell 🫣
hii i was wondering if anyone knew how to do this since yt isnt rly helping me. I had acnh like 2 years ago and i had nintendo online. My switch was stolen about a year ago (i didnt know it was stolen i thought i had misplaced it or smth) after a year i decided to give in and get a new one. I wanna transfer my island data over to my new switch but i cant cause i dont posess the old one anymore...
Is there a way to get my old island without the old switch? or do i have to start all over?
If you had an island backup in the Cloud, it might be possible (and contacting Nintendo itself might help with that). Generally, the advice is that you need both Switches and the Island Transfer Tool to be able to get an island from one Switch to the other
the thing is.. its been so long so idk if i have a backup. I was gonna contact support but i think they are only mon-fri?
I'm not sure when they're available but it could be a "leave us a message and we'll reply Mon-Fri" so you lose nothing by sending a support request now. I wouldn't hold too much hope though if you're not sure if you had a backup and don't have your old Switch 😦
man.. Its a shame though, I spent a LOT of hours into that game and got all my dream villagers.. </3
i doubt it can be fixed but itd be nice
what do the gifted/heavily gifted and stuff mean in villagers?
Gifted means that the villager has received clothes/furniture (and 'heavily' would mean lots of that), which they may display in their house or wear. Some people want ungifted villagers so they can supply them with clothes/furniture that suit their island aesthetic without additional things being displayed or worn from a previous villager owner
Its just a radio and lamp nothing else
Can you send a picture of the tent and your pockets?
Also just a heads up that sleeping isn't how you start a new day 😃
oh
Sorry I know I’m just jumping in but if I got the context right the bed isn’t a real bed in the beginning. It’s a cot
its not there
Picture?
how do i send pics from my switch to my pc?
You don’t have a mobile device to take a picture with? /gen
How to quickly transfer screenshots from your Switch to mobile/desktop
• Create a Facebook or Twitter account. (You can keep it completely private if you want). Connect the account to your Switch. Now you can post images from your Switch gallery and use your phone/PC to download them from your FB/Twitter!
• Another option is to send the photo straight to a smart device. From the home screen, click on Album > Click on the image you want to send > Select Sharing and Editing > Select Send to Smartphone, then follow the instructions on-screen.
If that phone has a camera you can also use that to take a pic. It doesn’t need to be the best quality for it to be effective
What happens when you talk to Tom nook?
He just says stuff
Like? /gen
one sec ill show you
i hope you find the camping supplies in your tent usefull
remeber press a to open packages
What is the item thats a leaf thats in your pockets?
i never played in a year
You can hover your cursor over it to see the item name
i thought it was like a item from a tree
Is that the cot?
Hello, i bought the DLC happy homme paradise about 1y ago, and i have no longer access to it, when i try to work at the airport, it says i dont have the DLC, is it because i have to subscribe or its a bug?
That's what the furniture look like in your pockets 😃
Did you buy it through the NSO expansion pack ?
Yes
If I remember correctly if you no longer have the NSO then you lose access
Sorry my pc crashed im back
It looks like, i don't have nso anymore, should i contact nintendo? Or just buy the dlc a second time?
what time can i visit oothers i wanna visit yall and steal stuff
This chat is for game mechanics related questions 😃 you can ask in #island-hangouts🛩️🏝️ or look in #690093605821480980 for others to play with! However, please don't steal from other players/joke about stealing from other players 
It’s up to you whether you want to renew your subscription or just buy it separately
Ok i see, ty!
How many homes does it take to unlock your full catalog in hhp? Someone said 15 but I’ve done 20 and still nothing. Also online it says I have to do 19 homes to get Niko to start asking for materials for the pillar diys but still nothing. I’ve even skipped to the next day
My bad. I may have misspoken yesterday. It’s 27 homes I believe
How do you get star fragments?
You need to wish in stars, the wash up on your beaches the next day here's a short video on how to do it
If I do that in other island what will happen?
Can i not give chabwick and the villager celebrating his birthday with him their toy day presents? i keep talking to them and it won’t let me give them their presents
and if i can’t, will jingle like, acknowledge that ?
also, why is stella the only one who gave me a gift in return? i have 2 more to deliver but so far she’s the only one who gave me something which is weird bc i didn’t think they did anyways
I think you can close and reopen the game to get the villager celebrating with him to respawn.
is there a way to get chabwick though?
I’m not sure
If I read the infographic correctly though only 3 villagers return your gifts anyway though
ohhhhh okay
The fragments should still show up on your beach the next day
Thank you, it was 27 after all. However I still can’t trigger the dialogue with Niko to unlock all pillars. He asked me to tell him about all the diys I know and he gave me a recipe for one of them. But he won’t talk to me about the other ones or about materials either. I’ve done way more than 15 homes
Oh thanks! Did it today so I’ll check it tomorrow
Apparently he’s supposed to take me to the school for a lesson on pillars, but he just won’t do it for some reason?
could someone please clarify for me how money trees work? I'm seeing conflicting reports on if it should be 10k or more
May have to TT another day, especially if the last time you did it Leif talked about flowers
do pine trees drop ulimited ornaments
is toy day 24th or 25th december
Toy Day is the 24th
does it end at a certain time
nvm i found the event thing
if you scan the amiibos of npcs at hhp and make homes for them there, do they give you their photo?
Only non villager NPCs.
whats… whats a non-villager npc…
i thought all npcs werent villagers
I believe so. You may have to pick up some stuff for more to fall though, since things that fall from trees can only fall within a 2 block radius from the trunk
NPC by definition means “non-playable character”
And you can’t play as villagers either
So I always specify idk /npa
so any npc
also ik what it means..
im just gonna guess that the answer is yes
since every npc in ac… isnt a villager
Yeah I guess in the context of AC it’s a yes
But technically villagers are also NPCs too since you can’t play as them
In any case though they mail the photos I think, I don’t think they come immediately
you know in ac people just use npc to mean the animals that cant live with you
thanks
If i have a empty house plot in my inventory can a villager move out?
i didn’t get the wrapping paper diy for toy day
has this happened to anyone
i talked to jingle but the recipe didn’t show up
hi! does it matter what gifts i give the villagers, like in new leaf? (never mind i figured out out)
do I have to give my villagers toy day items for toy day? or can I gift them just anything and they'll react the same?
heyo!! this is my first time playing a mainline AC game so I'm not entirely familiar with the mechanics. I want to invite more villagers into my island and so far I've run into Audie and Hugh. Thing is, apparently I need to buy plots from Tom Nook so they could come in/camp out on my island, but I haven't been presented with that option yet. Does this mean they won't move in, even if I invited them?
If you invited them, then they will move in. You just to progress more in the main story
okay, thank you! is there a limit to how many villagers you can invite? i thought id invited hugh, but apparently i didn't.
It should’ve worked. When you put down the 3 housing plots Hugh would claim one Aw. He was my starter lazy too 🥹
yep, it worked! i might have just misremembered things 😅 i am a bit confused though since ive seen stuff saying that i could only invite one villager a day
That may be the case. I always mix the three plots up with villagers 7-10 later in the game. I’m sorry 
its okay!! thanks so much! :D
Is this a castle item? It looks different than the castle wall
It can be if you want! It actually goes by medieval castle wall though
Thank you so much!:)
I messed up. I meant “medieval building side”
that’s how this day is going lol
i am need of some villager help because i cant understand youtube 
What do you need help with
i have like 3 villiagers i wanna kick out but because i dont understand how to make a villager hate my guts and leave, so they kinda just sit around and get wacked
ive tried ignoring them, hitting em and stuff but the bubble doesnt wanna appear on em
Whacking them will not help, nor ignoring. You need to have talked to them for them to be able to even ask. How many villagers do you have?
i got the full amount of 10
OK you just need to be patient then. Be sure you talk to all your villagers, are you ok with time traveling?
ye im okay with time traveling
.t moveout // You so talk to all villagers, and follow the guide below 
•• 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
Alright ill give it a go!
Best of luck! My advice is if you don't get bubbles after 2 weeks of day by day, start over 
got it! ill check back in if anything doesnt happen or it doesnt work
Which material is the rarest to find?
Gold is my first thought, but pearls can be slow to obtain too
how do I start the toy day event? all I got was the toy day stockings
Gold is what I thought too but I keep finding pearls to the point that a slot fills up
You should also receive a sack from Jingle
Does anyone know how to get the space stuff in the game?
I’ve been waiting over a year for it to come in the shop 😔
They are diys you get from Celeste
I'm not sure what you mean by a 'slot fills up'. All items in the game will take up storage/inventory/pocket space
To add to the mention of the DIYs, you usually need little (yellow) and big (white) star fragments and sometimes other materials - gold, iron, stone, etc.
Oh okay, dang that’s gonna take a while. I had a few of them then I sold them because I never had a use for them 🙃
Sorry it was 1 pocket space
Star fragments are incredibly useful for a heaaaap of DIYs. You can always ask for more in #materials-and-tools and ask for the DIYs in #diy-trade
Kinda new to the game
Most things will take up space as you collect them though
Oooo I’ll do that! Thank you! I’ll reach out now
i didn’t get that
Did you speak to Jingle and craft the three festive papers he asked you to make?
they never gave me the DIY for that
if they did I would’ve crafted em
If you spoke to Jingle, it’s the first thing he gives you. Even if you know the recipe, he gives it to you again
.t toyday || is it Dec 24 on your island?
You won’t have received the stockings from him and not the bag
ye
or do I need more villagers
because rn I have 5
Honestly I don’t know if it matters how many villagers you have but you get the stockings as a reward for giving him the wrapping paper, so I don’t know how you say you have the stockings from him and not the bag or the paper/DIY to make it
If you’re okay with time travelling, you could go back or forward a day, and then return to Dec 24 and start over
There are stockings you can buy as a furniture item. They aren’t the same Toy Day Stockings from Jingle though
For example
hey does anyone know how to get Ornaments for wrapping paper so i can do that little toy helper task
YOU CAN DDOOOO THATT!???!?
If you have the cedar trees that Isabelle announced decorating with festive lights, you shake shake shake them and ornaments randomly drop. Just keep shaking/collecting until you have what you need
Yes. I just travelled back to Dec 24 (because it’s Dec 25 for me) and did Toy Day deliveries again 😂
ironically I got the standard stockings from a balloon
ohhh is that why I don’t have the DIY for the wrapping paper?
Can you go up to Jingle and interact with him? And tell me what he says?
bc I haven’t upgraded RS yet
Ah. Well then that’s a possibility
💀
Can you go up to Jingle and talk to him and tell me what he says?
I skipped to dec 25 and then went back to dec 24
how far back can you skip?
I know there some sort of date limit but a very long way
then I should time travel again to unlock Isabelle
Going forwards again will lead to flower/weed explosions though
bc skipping keeps the upgraded stuff somehow
If you have five villagers, RS should upgrade pretty soon I think
its upgrading rn
if I do it again it’ll be done
and prob the only time I’ll ever time skip
Famous last words 😂 but glad to hear it’s upgrading. Hopefully that resolves the issue
fr
The ladder diy comes with the 3 plots quest from Tom Nook, right?
ye
only for a flower wreath tho
I just need the ladder diy, ty !
weird since you can plunder an island for flowers but oh well
how do you get ornaments for the wrapping paper
If you have the decorated cedar trees, you just keep shaking them til ornaments drop
okayyyy thank you so much kami 🫶🏼
you only need 3 of each anyway
what time does toy day end at?
Dec 25th 5:00am
how do i get access to trade channels?
You may need to select the ‘Trade’ choice in the Customize Community channel
also do u need a santa outfit to deliver gifts?
No. Villagers will make comments like "OMG IT'S SANTA" but that's about the only difference
If I get a new switch, what is the process for transferring my AC island over to the new switch ? Thanks
.t transfer 
How to move your Animal Crossing: New Horizons island to a different Nintendo Switch
• 1. Download the Animal Crossing: New Horizons Island Transfer Tool from the eShop on both Nintendo Switches.
• 2. Make sure Animal Crossing: New Horizons is updated to the latest version on both consoles.
• 3. Launch the Island Transfer Tool on both consoles and follow the on-screen instructions.
• 4. Once the transfer finishes, launch the game on the new Switch.
• 5. When asked about using existing resident data, select “Existing data.”
• 6. Select the villager name that matches the villager you were playing as on the previous Switch. Make sure it matches up with the Switch user account you were using on the previous Switch for that character.
• 7. If you brought over more than one character in the save transfer, make sure that people’s characters match the Switch user account when logging in. They’ll only need to do this the first time they sign into the new Switch for the first time.
Thank you. Will other profiles on my old switch island also be transferred over to my new switch island, as in human characters ?
Yes, read number 7. You just have to log in same user accounts names in the new switch
Gotcha Okie Dokie I just wanted to make sure. Thanks
One last question on that. Is there anything at all that won’t transfer over from one switch to another AC wise ?
If you did the instructions correctly your whole island should transfer and all the residents and everything you have in the game
Okie Dokie thanks
is it possible to time travel and give presents if your villagers are asleep?
If their house is open and they've fallen asleep standing up, usually going up to them to chat to them will wake them up. But if they're asleep and their house says 'I'm sleeping!' when you try to interact with it, you can't give them anything
I placed the stockings on the wall in my house and played toy day yesterday but I still don’t have jingles photo!
You delivered all the toys? Placed the stocking on your walls yesterday?
I delivered all of jingles presents and 9 of my own from me (separate to jingles) and they’ve been on my wall for a few weeks
You want the Toy Day Stockings Jingle gave you yesterday. They are different from the 'set of stockings' that you're probably saying you got weeks ago
Omg yes I’ve just realised that they’re not the same. Omg that’s so annoying they’re literally the same item. Thankyou!!
Will I get the photo tomorrow if I place them now?
I'm not sure. If you don't mind time traveling, then you might be able to go back and forth
Okay thanks, I’ll wait and see!
I forgot to buy turnips and daisy Mae left 5 hours ago, can I time travel back in time to buy turnips then jump back to current time or will it cause the turnips to go bad? I don’t have NSO unfortunately so Island hopping isn’t an option
You can do that! Jumping forward won't rot turnip, if you don't go past the date they are supposed to rot, the following Sunday.
Ah okay I shall do that then, thank you so much!!
If you are following your turnip prices with a site or spreadsheet, be aware that the initial jump backs will reset your patterns so you need to not take the previous week into account
Got it! Thanks again 
THANKS KAMI MERRY CHRISTMAS LOVELY
i never got the recipe for the wrapping paper how do i make it
Is it Dec 24 in your game? Have you spoken to Jingle?
ya i spoke to him and its dec 25 in the morning he just told me i need to collect the ornaments
Toy Day is Dec 24, not Dec 25
The second point is if you have the decorated cedar trees. Someone earlier had an issue and we thought maybe it was because Resident Services hadn't upgraded yet
ohhh maybe
is that the only day u can do it cause it said it was toy day when i first logged on?
.t toyday
As far as I know, it's Dec 24
You can time travel back a day to do it if you don't mind time travelling
its fine idk how to do that but thank you!!
.t timetravel
Time traveling does not reverse / rewind progress. You still keep all the progress, items, etc. that you've completed / acquired even if you time travel backwards.
Well that wasn't what I'd hope the bot would say 😂
Basically time travel is done by:
a) close your game (save it first)
b) open up the Settings on the Switch and find the System option (at the bottom)
c) turn off 'Synchronise clock via internet' and then adjust the date/time to whatever you want (e.g. Dec 24)
d) reopen the game
You can then follow the same steps after you've done the Toy Day stuff although if you do the 'synchronise clock via internet', your Switch will auto-return to the date/time that it is now
Anyone knows the name of this tv set item?
ohhh okay imma try that later
thank you

how does the island system work?
For context, I want to create a new Island (to start fresh and to seperate myself from the island I played on years ago with my deadname) and transfer money and items I got in that playthrough to the new island.
My original plan was to find a friend with an island to dump all my things with before I restart my island, but I remembered I have a second switch.
So my question is: if I use the same account that has the old undesirable Island to become Island Representative on a new switch, will that cause any issues? Will both islands and characters exist without issue on the same account, allowing me to transfer items to the new island?
If you use the same account you can't visit yourself, but you can make a dummy account to visit yourself on local.
Also you can't change the island representative so you can't really become the island representative
@wise plank if you read the #📑market-guide‼️ channel, it will explain all the lingo - e.g. LF = Looking For, FT = For Trade
Thank you
no like moving to a switch that does not have any animal crossing data on it so I'd create an island and be the island representative on 2 switches on the same account
Hello! I just restarted my island, is there anyone willing to help me because I want to quickly play through the intro days, any help is welcome, iron, bells, tools ^^

This isn't what I meant sorry. I don't want the old island, my character has my deadname. I just want the resources from that island. I'd just like to know if creating a new island on a new switch with the same island representative account would preserve both islands.
If you use the same account on different switches, it would be different islands. You can't change just the name of the island representative. So it'll be the same account, but new character and new island
fair dinkum thats all i needed thank you <3
Any good guide for a perfect snowman? I followed the ones which told me thr balls should be the size so they reach my ears, but every time i create a snowman it says it's almost perfect but never perfect 😭
hey friends i'm on online free trial right now but i can't seem to be able to visit other islands, it's saying error code 2618-0513. i googled it and it said that it's something about the internet connection but i already checked my connection and it's okay. :< do you guys know how i can fix this?
Are there any items similar to the Double-edged sword? Basically just another weapon sticking out of the ground.
Second method with the path
Hey all, happy Holidays. I have a question about setting up a rock garden. Did the mannequin workaround stopped working for anyone else after the third rock? I haven't changed any of the positions of the mannequins, just added a new one each day for the shattered rock. thanks.
Mine stopped working on the last. But it spawned in using weeds to mark the place...
Hello Eveline, thanks for answering. Have you found a way to make it work again?
the designated place is still empty, not even a weed grew there.
help how do i get a villager kicked out i have like 8 villagers i dont like
i just wanna replace one for a villager i like
I left the mannequins all over the island and I planted weeds all over the place (in the spot where the last one didn't want to spawn) except the tile I wanted to spawn the rock in.
you can use amibos if u have any

• Which villagers can ask to move out?: https://tinyurl.com/yale3ggw
oh wait amiibos can force kick one out to replace it?
shoot i might go buy those cards then
i think so
Like this
i did this they wont budge, i just keep getting the messy hair animation every time i log on and they tell me how long i havent been there
are you looking for the thought bubble
yes i want them out
it does take a while
mine looks like this. Right now I have some issues locating the rogue stone though. 😄
so i just keep skipping a day til eventually i see them with the bubble on their head?
ye
also is there a way to check if theyre the most recently joined bcs i dont wanna be hunting smtn that might be locked
Looks good!
it should be like the one right under your villagers face on the map
or something
Thank you. I can't wait to be done with the rock garden. 🙂 I can hardly move due to all the mannequins at the moment.
ur sure right?
cos raymond is under
can u send a pic of your map rq?
just take a screenshot then send it to smartphone
its dead
your switch?
no my phone
oh ok
its either astrid or raymond and raymond is the one beneath the villagers face
do u remeber which ones joined when?
yeah the thing is raymond and astrid joined at like the same time so idrk
thats y im confused on which is which
ok
i needa get astrid out idek how he joined i just got a raymond and the next day it gave me the two of them
i had one spot left i was gonna get bob so i could get all the villagers i want but ofc i have to go through this now
it should habe only given you one vilager
Is there a trick to getting villagers' photos? The only one I've gotten was just randomly as a reply to a birthday gift.
There's really no trick. It's all based on random number generation. The only qualification is that you need to be a level 5 friend with them.
Bummer. Thanks for that though.
Okay I cannot for the life of me figure out why Niko won’t give me the pillar diys. I’ve done over 15 homes and have skipped forward several days and still no dialogue from him 😭
Have you been putting materials in his box upstairs?
He doesn’t even ask for materials in the box
According to everything I’ve read online he’s supposed to take me to the school and give a lesson on pillars, then he asks for the materials but that’s just not happening for me
Oh so apparently talking to Leif is a hidden requirement, and because I wasn’t aware of this I totally missed him on my hhp island and I’ve time skipped so much and he hasn’t shown up ever since. At this point I just wanna cry now lol
Yeah the Leif lesson before pillars needs to be triggered. I feel like he should be around if you haven’t gotten that lesson from him before
(I’m sorry. I had assumed you already got Leif’s hybrid lesson by this point so I didn’t think to ask
)
I don’t know what to do I got a maple amiibo and I reached day 3 giving her the items she wanted but when I say move in and talked to the resident they couldn’t get her in idk how to move her in since i don’t have a plot and I really want her to move in but idk how can I move her in
plus if I get a plot it would auto fill so it wouldn’t work
How many villagers do you have
8
The logical thing would be for him to be on the hhp island until I talk to him. Since it’s required to unlock more things in hhp. But he’s literally not been there since that one time and I’ve been time traveling so much I’ve lost count how much time has passed, but it’s definitely been weeks if not a month and I’ve checked everyday so
Plots don’t autofill until 5 am and since you only have 8 you have to put it down
If you want maple in
Are you sure you’re checking the whole beach?
oh so do I have to change the time before 5 am
You can put down the new plot and have maple move in
As long as it doesn't turn 5am during the process
wait so since it day 3 do I just buy a plot and place it or it wouldn’t work cause that’s why I’m asking the question bc I don’t wanna make a mistake
You have 8 villagers you said?
im pretty sure my game is bugged, none of my villagers will leave no matter how long or how many methods i use to get them out, can anyone help me unbug the game or force one out?
Twice around to be sure
As long as you have 8 villagers you can just place a plot down and it'll be good 😃
yes
How many do you have rn?
can anyone help here?
i have the max amount, 10
If we don’t reply right away it’s nothing personal btw
What moveout method are you using
i want to get one out but none of them leave no matter what i do or any methods
You can put the other plot down for maple 😃
ive used them all, the 15 day thing, the one u get when u search from yue, and some others
yeah i know
i got an sanrio ammiibo but how do i get the items
It's just rng at the end of the day, it can take a long time
They'll be in your catalog under the promotions tab after the villager visits you
4 hours long time?
Yes, sometimes longer
It's just up to rng overall so it can be a very long process
this all happened bcs my game bugged and randomly added sm1 which filled my last plot
ah alright thank you i found it!!
What do you mean by randomly adding someone? /gen
i traded for someones raymond and i time skipped to the next day and i got the raymond, but i also got some kangaroo
so i had 2 empty plots and i shouldve had one leftover
I don't think that your game is bugged, your plot just auto filled unfortunately
i didnt even know the kangaroo existed until i got it and ive been beating it with a net non stop hoping it will leave
Hitting it with the net doesn't make them want to leave unfortunately
it makes them hate you more right
so they get the hell out
It affects friendship level yes but friendship level doesn't make them want to move out
That won't work either unfortunately
im quite literally torturing it
but it talks to people less
ok what does make it get out then
Talking to people less doesn't impact them wanting to move out
This is the method that we recommend but again it's all up to rng so it can be a long process

• 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
i did this one already
this method did nothing
It takes time and RNG.
Hitting/bullying doesn't significantly affect this - it can just take a long while
Yeah it's a long process
All numbers and luck. 10 minutes is listed but very rarely has it taken me that short. It can just be a while - unfortunately without amiibo that's really the best method for you
ok ill come back in a bit
yeah im tryna get the amiibo cards but theyre not sold here where i live
It can take several hours of this method
So according to Nookpedia, if I make Aurora's home at HHP, I unlock the Ironwood Dresser, but they say it's only available trough craft, so does that mean I can't access the DIY drop anywhere else if I didn't unlocked it first?
Yeah, hhp only helps for getting access to stuff that can be sold, it will not give you diys outside of the one in the bottle you can find daily and the daily chef recipe from the restaurant
Why when I lie on the camping cot, it doesn't ask if I wanna sleep? How I can fall asleep?
you can only dream if your island has at least 3 stars, i believe
ok, and it can also be dropped by snooty villagers if they craft in their houses, right? But only if I unlocked it from HHP?
Some people say they unlocked this feature earlier...or is if mandatory to have 3 stars first?
i think it used to be an update thing
for people who had the game since launch and then updated it, we received a letter from luna, the item Luna’s Bed, and were able to dream then
but people who start the game now, the Luna thing became stars locked i think
Hi, I have a question.
My friend placed a tent on my island. They have then deleted their account on my switch from which they joined the island. How do I remove their tent? 😔
oh i had this problem
uh i think you have to go to the acnh save files and delte the one the you want to
You don't need three stars, you only need the upgraded resident services, Luna will then mail you her bed and her letter explains her service is now availbale
thank u
I actually ran out of space and placed everyone in homes on my HHP dlc... can I continue unlocking more vacant home or I have to make everyone live with roommates?
Like you filled up the map? Yes you can put more than one house there. You can either choose roommates or just pick to use the same spot
Hhp isn't a prereq for those recipes, the only ones you need it for are like the counters and pillars. You have a chance of getting it from snooties daily or you can trade for it if you have nso
yeah, all spots are filled, but I try and made a home for someone over another home and it seem to overwrite previous character's home, not like, there's 2 homes at same spots, that was weird 🤔
No it doesn't overwrite. It'll just both use that same "slot" with the same scenery, etc. I have 2 people who are on the same dot on the map but are in their own worlds still
I just shook a coconut tree and the other coconut disappeared, I saw it fall and disappear
so it's more like "instanced homes" on same spot?
Were there things in the way on the ground? It'll disappear if it can't land anywhere.
Yep! Exactly.
Each dot on the map isn't limited to just one person
awesome, thanks for answers guys
😭 yes there was a hole I dug to plant it
If I sell my islands fruits on someone else’s island, will it be worth more?
if their native fruit is not the same as yours, yes
Thanks!
whats the % chance for your villager wanting to leave ive done the yue method like 29382093 times it feels and noones budging
Again it is RNG. That method can take hours and sometimes days. It is luck, random numbers.
There isn't a percentage as far as I know since it is just RNG
at times it can take 10 minutes other times days. Its all random chance
idk it just feels like i did smtn wrong
its worked for people successfully tho right
idk what im doing is i skipped a month, went in the game, didnt get it, skipped a day, went in, rinse and repeat
anything im doing wrong
i only skipped a month at the start tho
Oh yeah they won't ask to move out unless you've talked to them at least once
ooh you mean in general yes ive talked to them all at least once
when they want to leave they ALWAYS have a cloud above their head right
cos i havent been talking to them to check
Yes.
ok
Although a cloud doesn't automatically mean they want to move out
yeah i know
how do I go the the happy designer thing island I just brought it and it’s downloaded
.t hhpunlock
•• 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.
so I just brought it now I have to do all that lol
bro the kangaroo is stretching like it doesnt care
im about to go back in there and beat it with a net for another hour
lolll
Just a reminder that it does not affect moving out rates, can be cathartic i suppose though
These are early progression things and quite honestly don't take too long provided you just follow what Tom Nook says
yeaaa tysm !! i just need the residence services
Can I plant turnips
at this point im not sure im doing the kick out method correctly noones budging i just want someone out
What you said you are doing is correct, remember to be patient. It can take 10+ hours. This can be a very, very long process, and you really just need to give it time.
can i just skip another month or something
look i need this empty plot asap because i have a trade waiting for me for the last villager i want then i can stop doing this stuff
You can skip another month yeah, but it is still rng and isn't 100% going to work
i need a method faster than yue
I'm just letting you know this takes a long time. Yue's is the fastest method. It is luck. You cannot speed luck up unfortunately.
unless acnh had multiple tabs but that doesnt exist
also another problem
i legit cant find my target its been like 30 attempts
They might be inside a building in which case the bubble won't spawn and you just have to move forward
yeah ive moved on to another target i want the kangaroos out they piss me off
they have annoying catchphrases like 'pet' and 'child'
I have a question
hi! does anyone know how to transfer save data from one switch to another? i got an oled switch today for christmas, and i don’t know how to transfer save data. my entire family is confused as well, so any help would be appreciated!
Does anybody know what "acnh" means
And I'm not sure if this is good help, i just started today, but if you have the game card i think you could transfer it through settings
animal crossing: new horizons!
i dont :(
on animal crossings
i got it through nintendo e shop
Oh I'm sorry I don't know how to help, i just started today, If I could help I would!
You'll want to download the "Island transfer tool" from the nintendo eshop and follow the prompts from there
On both switches be sure you have it, and also be sure your island is backed up via the - button on the start menu
Animal Crossing New Horizons, it is a shortened way to say the game's name
oh sorry i just saw that got answered 
oh so i have to buy it on the new switch too?
Not buy it
oh
The island transfer tool is a free tool used to transfer the save data, you have to be sure the game is installed on the new switch but you just have to use your nintendo account to redownload it
ok the yue method sucks im gonna use another one rn
I didn't know it meant that, but thanks for helping me!
oh i just have to use my nintendo acc to redownload it?
Remember this game is for factual and mechanical questions and more conversational posts are best for #acnh-chat⛱️ !
Yes, you don't have to rebuy it since you've already purchased it.
And could we be friends? I kinda wanna be your friend
oh okay thanks!

🌟 This channel is for asking factual / game information and mechanics type of questions regarding New Horizons.
• For conversational or opinion-based questions please go to #general or #acnh-chat⛱️, thank you! 
wait so how do i use the nintendo account to redownload it?
Go to the eshop, your profile, then “redownload” on the left side bar (iirc anyway)
Also, how can I decorate a Christmas tree? there are Christmas trees at some islands 👉🏻👈🏻
This page is a guide on how to transfer user data, be sure to read through it and also the note for ACNH data in the second box at the top (blue) https://en-americas-support.nintendo.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/27394/~/how-to-transfer-user-and-save-data
They’re automatically decorated
There are also some items that are decorated trees
it doesnt say redownload for acnh, what should i do?
Are you trying to reinstall the game or the transfer tool?
the game
i got the transfer tool but not the game on the target switch
You need the game redownloaded and the transfer tool downloaded. It assumes you have the game on the new console. That is your first step. Connect your nintendo account and download the game from the eshop (or install it if it's physical)
it says proceed to purchase
Are you logged into your nintendo account, the account that purchased the game? You bought it digital, and not physical?
If you aren't the one who purchased the game it may need to be repurchased
ugh alright
How to get one then? I’m afraid my island doesn’t have one 😦
Which ones? The decorated cedar trees or the furniture items?
Cedar trees
Just have your game between Dec 15th, 2022 and Jan 6th, 2023
And make sure you have cedar trees on your island
Yep, that’s what I meant, where can I get trees itself? There’s not on my island initially
Only cherry trees
There are cedar trees but they'll be on the higher cliffs (that are not accessible if you are early game). You can buy saplings from Nook's Cranny
Got ya, thank you 🙂
Okay I just realized I do have cedar trees on my island but anyway they’re not decorated with lights :\ why so?
Nope, nothing at all
sometimes it activates on the 26th
wait til tomorrow maybe?
when i time skipped to the 26th they showed up for me
Is your resident services still a tent?
It needs to be a building I believe for the lights to appear. They start on the 15th - but not if your building isn't upgraded
Yep :\ that’s whyyy, I see
After I build 3 new houses, do I need to invite 3 new members to move in or they’re arriving automatically?
After the 3 houses, you’ll set up your campsite and get your first campsite villager. Then for the reaming plots (the max is 10), you can buy those through Tom nook.
do you need to be done with project kk in order to kick out people?
No, you just need 7 vilagers (6 maybe? either)
ok then theres no way i havent gotten a chat bubble yet
sm1 i talked to has project kk done and gets thought bubbles 24/7, even other yt channels
ur telling me 6 hours of resetting and reaching june 2023 from how much i time travelled and i didnt get a single thought bubble because of luck?
I mean like stated before it is RNG. some people have good luck with it and some don't. When I was doing this method it took over 3 days to get a single bubble.
Yes it is just luck lol
RNG - random number generator. It is what generates if a bubble will appear.
so then how do people get them consistently without any delay
A lot of people don't
idek how to get 3 stars on my island ion have flowers
A ton of people on this server come into q&a with your same exact issue - and there's nothing really that can be done other than to keep trying
•• 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.
You can buy flowers from Nook's Cranny
yeah i think im quitting this game this flower decoration stuff just isnt for me
That... Makes so much more sense now.
so the purchase is on my brother’s account i think, and he won’t let me use it, so is there any other way to get it?
unfortunately you will have to buy it on your account
ugh alright
You unlock the ability to purchase path styles after you get a 3 star island and KK plays a show - it will be the day after you unlock the terraforming app and you will have dirt paths (you buy the other styles from the ABD for nook miles)
Okay I just set up my cam site for visitors so I must be close
yeah u should be close
So I broke my rocks on my island.. what should I do to get iron ore??
They will eventually respawn day by day. You can go to mystery islands with nook mile tickets to harvest more rocks. be sure you do not eat anything before you hit rocks, that is what breaks them, and without eating you can get 8 things (or is it 7?) you just need to hit them in succession
How can I get the ladder and vaulter pole blueprints?
So i transferred my acnh to my new switch, but it wants me to buy the game on the new switch, any idea as to how i can fix this?
Should I take a loan out to buy a house or is it not worth it?
Wdym by this? Do you mean to upgrade your house?
If so, yes. Thats the only way to upgrade your house
Tom nook wants me to take a loan out for 98000 bells to replace my house with a tent
Tent with house*
The only way to progress in the game is to upgrade your house
Yep
Ok
Also, how do I get blueprints for essentials like the vaulting pole and the ladder?
Im not too sure, been a while. P sure google will know though /nm
I think blathers though?
Ok
yes, you get them from blathers
And does Blathers just take time because I have set up the construction site of his museum I’m just awaiting his arrival
He should arrive the next day, if you’ve set up the tent!
I accidentally put some ridiculous face paint on do you know a way to remove it?
You will need to use a mirror for that ^^
How can I get a mirror blueprint?
Or actually i think you can just do it from that lil icon at the bottom
The clothes one. In your inventory
If it’s a custom design, then yes you should be able to do that as well
Are you using the same account you bought the game on? Did you do the account/user transfer onto the new switch?
So we figured out my dad bought it unfortunately (used to be his switch), ill just re-buy it
Ahh yeah that'll do it. Glad you got it figured out (but also sorry)!
its alright, thanks for the advice though!!
@deep basin do you mean in the custom designs menu?
Nope, this
They arrive the next day yes
If I have eaten food and I want to remove a rock is there a way to decrease the number on the food bar
Sit on a toilet or dig up a tree and replant it a bunch of times
Do I need a shovel to dig up trees?
Wait I'm confused sorry, yes you do, and hitting rocks with shovels is imo the best way to harvest. Your original questions is to Remove a rock, do you mean get rid of it? If you eat and hit one it will be destroyed and spawn somewhere else in a day or two
Sorry, so, did you want to remove or harvest it?
Harvest for resources
Ah gotcha, so yeah be sure you don't have food lol. to dig up a tree to run the meter out you will need a shovel, otherwise a toilet to sit on. Alternatively you can go to a Mystery island and smash the rocks there to run the meter out
I'm not positive if it resets if you save and exit then pop back in the game 
Where can I get a shovel blueprint?
to get the DIY recipe for the shovel you can give Tom Nook critters (bugs/fish) and he will invite blathers who will give you the DIY
So I guess I will wait until tomorrow for Blathers to arrive because it seems he holds the blueprints for the items I need
Yes he will give the DIY recipe I believe once you talk to him... you can time travel but otherwise it is a waiting game
Does it cost anything to time travel?
No, you do it from the system settings. You just move forward a day - it isn't an in game thing
As in - it isnt something you buy or anything
Oh, that’s useful for people that have to much time on their hands
I wish they had that in clash of clans lol
How do I get backpack upgrades?
You buy them with nook miles. The first is for 5k miles and the last is with 8k miles after resident services becomes a building
Ok
This channel is best for specific questions coz there's a ton of content when you're starting an general tips are hard, to hear from others I may try asking this in #acnh-chat⛱️ - but #tour-guide is a good collection of general guides!

- according to the siteapp last update was alpha and posted 8/2/20
i was wondering why it’s inaccurate, but i’ve asked in #acnh-chat⛱️ and nobody knows what it is, so i went here :)
yeah, i’m sad cuz it was telling me that my weather pattern was impossible and i was like… well it’s happening so 🤷🏼
I don't think it's been updated since 2.0 came out which might be the issue but i'm not versed in it beyond the site itself so I can't really say for sure
Fair enough. As far as I’m aware we aren’t affiliated with Meteonook at all, and this channel is mostly about the game itself, which is why I pulled up that command. I’m sorry it’s been giving you issues though! /pos
it’s all good! :)
okay ive got a question, my resident services is being reconstructed/upgraded right now, could i visit someones island and use the atm there?
8/2/2020 was well before 2.0 though

I am having difficulties connecting to my sister's island via local wireless play we are in the same room but I always get an error any help would be greatly appreciated
Do you have 2 copies of the game?
yes
What’s the error code?
oh um it was a while ago we tried but it was the Resetti error
hold on I can try and recreate the error if it will help
does the bit of land that sticks out, always go on the opposide side away from the dock?
Is one of your island open locally?
Yes
Yes I am trying to connect to my sisters island which is open in local wireless mode and I am trying to connect to it also in local wireless play
ooo okay thanks
And it won’t let you travel when you choose her island in local play?
Give me a moment I will try again
Make sure both your switches are updated to the latest software then try again
Can visitors buy from other people’s turnip lady? (I forget her name.)
Yes
Yes
So Orville is able to find the island but if I try to enter it gave me an error just a second
Where would I advertise looking for her (the turnip lady)? #npc-visits ? I opened my game too late in the day to see her and I don’t wanna TT yet 
No error code
Ty, forgot those channels existed 
Check your switch versions
I just checked for updates they are both 15.0.1
•• How to Update Your Game ••
1. Hover over ACNH on the home menu
2. Press the + button
3. Select 'Software Update', then 'Via the Internet'
The update will download, and then your game will be up to date!
Your game may not necessarily get the update at the exact time mentioned, please be patient and you'll get it soon!
they are also version 2.0.6
Do you have a wifi connection? You could try going through the online way with a dodo — rather then local.
Local play is like bluetooth you don’t need a wifi connection
My sister cannot get online she is a child she can't even get a Nintendo account
Try opening your island instead
Oh, heavens. Myself and a few others I’ve traded with have been having issues with dodo codes after one person uses it — perhaps try saving and quitting, closing the game completely, then opening a gate 
And try if she can travel to you
okay I'll try that
quick question - so my brother purchased acnh on his account, and i want to transfer it over to my new switch. however, he won't let me transfer it to my switch because he's concerned that he'll lose his save data for his other games. does anyone know if this is true? thank you in advance for the help!!
still gives an error
No, as long as you don’t delete or format the switch, the other save data for other games will still be there.
But if he is worried about his own island, then that will no longer be there. The other games will be fine tho!
That is so weird. Try restarting both switches
okay
he's not worried abt his own island, he's just worried about pokemon violet, splatoon 3, and terraria
Those won’t be affected! All you need is the island transfer tool. It doesn’t affect other switch game data unless the console is formatted or the data is manually deleted. All it will do is switch over the ACNH data!
okay great thanks for all the help!
same error again
I got the same error after restarting
Are you playing with a different account?
Put both switch on airplane mode and try again
what do you mean?
Like each switch is playing on a different user account
yes
And you have 2 switch and 2 copies?
You said this earlier. How do you and she have the game? As cartridges? Or as downloads?
You’re choosing local play? How? I can do local play with no internet at all
both seperate cartridges
Are you absolutely sure you both are picking the ‘play local’ option? ignore me 
yes I am making sure I press local play
It doesn’t make sense. That error only appear when you are game sharing on digital
I’m not asking you to share the email but you have separate accounts on the switches with different emails? You said she doesn’t have a Nintendo account but there’s a difference between the paid online extras and the base account thing that you need to access games
Are you trying via dodo code or friends list? @exotic owl
I did a little Google search, and sometimes the connection doesn’t work if you don’t have the other on your switch friend list.
There is no eMail tied to her account it is literally just this
You don’t need nintendo account to do a local play
You don’t my third alt can travel locally across my islands
Even if we’re in the mountains with zero wifi at all as long as every switch is updated and has their own copy of the game

• For conversational or opinion-based questions please go to #general or #acnh-chat⛱️, thank you! 
why does this game take so dam long to load
Does Christmas mess with the weather? Meteonook is telling me I entered bad info but I’m sure I didn’t
Event days like Toy Day (Christmas) use a special weather pattern, and as such, shouldn't be used to find your seed
It sometimes takes longer to load when you’re not connected to the internet
Can I get a villager in boxes before I do the 3 getaway packages?
No, they can only start to ask to leave after the first mandatory campsite visitor has moved in and you have at least 6 animal villagers
In your switch settings
Can I get a villager from off-island to mine before I finish the getaway packages?
Can you encounter a new villager on a nook miles trip if someone is in your campsite?
No, same thing
Alright thank you
Yes, as long as you have an empty plot available
Do trees regrow after I chop them down with an axe?
If no, would it be better to use a flimsy axe so the trees don’t break?
Yes
If you want to keep them up yeah. Just know that the durability isn’t the best. If you want the best of both worlds (durability and keeping trees) stone axes are the best.
If you are only wanting materials it is 100% better to use a flimsy axe
Or also a stone axe yeah as Yay said since they are more durable and still will not chop the tree down
But if I chop them down can I dig up the stump and replant?
Ok
But also, fruit makes it so you break rocks, so what benefits does fruit even bring?
You can't dig up a stump and replant it
You can't replant the stump but you can plant saplings and fruit
Fruit can be sold for bells
Or used in some DIYs
Fruit can be used in recipes and crafting, and non-native fruit can be sold for 500 bells so it's good for money
I have run around my island like 6 times now and can not find the visiting villager… I checked the back beach for redd too… I got to 3 stars yesterday so kk performed today so I’m not sure if that means I don’t have a visiting character today but if someone knows..
Isabelle will announce visitors, if KK is playing I don't think any other special NPC will be on your island.
So how do I get rid of the stump?
Question. I know TT doesn’t affect progress whatsoever. All it does is make some weeds, affects turnips, and friendships if you go too far. But will it affect HHP if I TT to unlock the option at the airport, and THEN travel back to real-time?
If KK is visiting today, then the only visitors you might get can be campsite, Wisp or Celeste afaik but none of those are guarantees
Dig the tree stump up with a shovel!
dig it up
Don’t believe so since you need to do stuff before you get access to HHP
Ty, I sort of figured but didn’t want to miss out the chance to sell my fish 😭
Kami said I can’t dig stumps so I got a bit confused
You can dig them but not replant them
I said you can't dig up a stump and replant it
That is what Kami was saying
In response to when you asked this
Once you have a stump, you either leave it as a stump (and some bugs only spawn on stumps) or you dig it up. You can't replant it and it won't regrow into a full tree
You can also sit on it so they can be nice for decoration!
Does anyone know anything about your island just kinda disappearing? Because I had this big decorated island with tons of stuff and I traded a bunch on, and suddenly, after not playing for about a year, I go on and it’s making me start a new game.
Does anyone know of a wallpaper that matches or is more similar to the bathroom sink then the one I already have equipped?
So i looked it up, it said this
If island data cannot be found, it may be because your Nintendo Switch is not currently connected to the internet or you are not using the same Nintendo Account that was used to enable island backup
Does that help?
Not perfect but https://nookipedia.com/wiki/Item:Aqua_tile_wall_(New_Horizons)
The aqua tile wall is a wallpaper item in Animal Crossing: New Horizons.
The aqua tile wall can be obtained from Nook's Cranny for 1,420 Bells.
This item appears in the homes of Harry as the default wallpaper.
In Happy Home Paradise, this item is unlocked for use in designing when doing a vacation home request for Bam, Cally, Iggly, Joey, ...
Yes. I’m connected though and I need the Nintendo online subscription to do the island backup unfortunately😔
The blue tile wall is a wallpaper item in Animal Crossing: New Horizons.
The blue tile wall can be obtained from Nook's Cranny for 1,420 Bells.
This item appears in the homes of Eunice as the default wallpaper.
In Happy Home Paradise, this item is unlocked for use in designing when doing a vacation home request for Buck and Kody.
After unloc...
If youd like, you could make a custom wall design to get it to match closer, but apart from that, maybe the blue subway wall tile?
So untiI i can renew it, I’ll just chill on a new world I guess
Just for a bit of background info, same switch, same user right?
~~It’s a reall wall paper https://catalogue.ac/i/4912~~ probably shouldn’t by answering stuff in the middle of Pokémon battles oops xD
Think they were asking for a wallpaper that matched the sink, not what the wallpaper was that was already there?
I think they mean the wall that the sink is part of
that would be more opinionated and better suited to be asked in #acnh-chat⛱️ rather than here in this case
As the game begins to open, you will see a black screen with the Nintendo logo in the top-left corner. When this screen completely fades to black, press and hold the – Button. If performed correctly, a message will appear that asks if you want to check for island data to restore.
Does anyone know these items?
I’m having a hard time doing it
Sorry, could you elaborate?
Like getting to timing right. I can’t get the message to pop up
How do I get my dream address? Whenever I lay in bed nothing happens.
You need nintendo online membership first
Did you get a letter form Luna yet?
I think if you just press - and not try to enter the game youll get it, you just have to talk to Tom Nook
Oh okay
No
i’ve got the game like 2 days ago and i have no clue how to use the expansion pack i bought it and i also bought online?
So do I need to get a letter from Luna in order to get my dream address?
how to i do that?

ty so much
Do I just wait for the letter?
ohhhh ok i had to give the supplies to make it a building, i just have to give the iron now very helpful thanks
Does anybody know like the dates of when weekly people arrive like Luna and the bug and fish guy!
I meant “?”
.t npcschedule
Does anyone know these items
Thanks nookbot
You’re talking about nooks cranny which is different.
I know some of them but not all
what now i’m confused
The iron is for the shop. The command I pulled up is for the airport which Auto Unlock’s on day 2
i have the airport open
And by online expansion pack I assumed you meant the HHP dlc, which has nothing to do with the shop either
can we prive message
I’d prefer to stay here. I’m playing Pokémon rn and can’t reply right away
Hey lovely could you please answer mine when you have a chance thanks
I have a thing about pinging in my status. Please respect that /nm
I’m not ignoring you on purpose. I’m just not confident about names
I didn’t even see a status as your offline
i see the steel fence, and the glowing moss shelf
its kinda hard to see
i also see the stadium lights
Here I I have a better picture
okay some of those look like customized simple panels
and at better look thats a stadium light and not a glowing moss shelf thingie
@open flax right. And here’s for how to unlock the use of it. It doesn’t have to do with the shop quest at all
i see two gamer desks. two gamer chairs .
hold on , let me get on my computer so i can better my assistance 😊
https://nookea.com/en_us/ac/WZhLJ7xLwJdKAd5cg
The chair items with circles are these, turned around to see the back
Thanks so much @edgy solar
https://catalogue.ac/i/13503-0 is also there I believe @silk knot
Thanks guys
Also where the thing is doing Morse code
Is that a customize thing where it’s like a stage light
I forgot what they are called
Several of these https://nookipedia.com/wiki/Item:Small_LED_Display_(New_Horizons)
~~ah that’s the item I was trying to find the name of. Thanks!
~~
Edit: the bottom was also on my list. I’m really losing item names by playing other games 🥲
Finally found the thing I was looking for - https://nookipedia.com/wiki/Item:Inspection_equipment_(New_Horizons)
The inspection equipment is a customizable houseware furniture item in Animal Crossing: New Horizons introduced in the 2.0 Free Update. The item's top surface can be used to place smaller items, such as miscellaneous furniture.

Enjoy your Pokemon battles! 😂
https://nookipedia.com/wiki/Item:Ring_Light_(New_Horizons)
One of these near the middle, left side, turned sideways and coloured green
Might be some TV screens or karaoke sets scattered throughout too. Hard to tell
i'll just.. dm it, i don't think such long messages are allowed
How can I give gifts to my villagers?
After they've been on your island a certain amount of days, you'll eventually get a third speaking prompt to go along with 'I want to chat' or 'Just saying hi' which is along the line of 'Do you want this?'
should i back up my island data if im transferring it?
Has your joycon disconnected from registering? Can you do anything else with the right side?
im using a controller
Okay. Can you do anything with the other buttons?
yea everything else works
That's very odd. Can you use the joycons to check your grip order and make sure the controller is connected?
If you have both consoles it’s best to just use the tool and follow its directions
But generally I back stuff up ‘cause you just never know lol
yea its connected
What happens if you press the b button on the joycon in game?
nothin with the joycon
Are you sure you're still stuck in camera mode?
ye it has the guide on screen
also i changed around the mapping of my controller for a sec
when i changed x to b nothin happened still
so its just a problem with b
Might need to reset your Switch and restarting the game? Hold down the power button for about three seconds and selecting the restart option under 'power options'
Yay! Glad to hear! Hopefully it doesn't happen too often/again 🤔
Is there anyways to not have this gap when putting a custom path over the in-game path? Thank you!
Keep putting the in-game path down or get rid of the one underneath it. At the moment, you've got a path over the top of one path, and another on its own - the game picks it up like it's two different paths
even when I get rid of the red brick above and below it, it still doesnt work.
You have a couple different paths going on here: the in game one and two custom design ones. You can just do the custom designs, or just one of the overlay ones. If you wanted it consistent, you can do any of your two overlays over the in-game path. There just has to be at least one transparent pixel in the design for it to align correctly
The path you have circled is overlaid with one of the in-game paths. That's what I meant about needing to continue that in-game path everywhere, then put your overlay or remove the in-game path completely and just have the top brick
So is there a way to turn of the "overlay" to make it kinda like this orange one? I hope that makes sense.
Are you asking how to get the orange one here to fit?
So what Im trying to say is the somehow the orange one takes up the whole space instead of being "overlay" on top of the in game path. I was wondering if there is any way to make my custom brick path to also take up the whole space instead of overlaying.
You can get rid of the overlay simply by not using the in-game path underneath it?
Or if you’re adamant about having the in-game path under just make sure every pixel in your path is colored in and not transparent
Ahh so it's a transparency issue.
can i post a youtube link here?
i might have a video that could help
I want to have the "path" reflected on my map haha.
do y’all know how to get these hedges ? i haven’t played in quite a while to know how to make them
Ah gotcha. I decided I didn't want the 'path' on my map so it looks like I don't have much but I have colour everywhere 😂
It's the Hedge DIY that you get from Leif
The Hedge Fence is a special type of fencing item for landscaping in Animal Crossing: New Horizons obtained in nontraditional ways. Learn how to unlock and craft this new fence item in our guide. Unlike most other Fences in the game, you can’t unlock the Hedge Fence by purchasing it from the Nook Miles section... View Article
thank you do you know how often he comes ?
Usually about once every couple of weeks
Each visitor should come once every 2 weeks, just check in every day and Isabelle will tell you
okay thank you sm
Also thank you for you help everyone! :D
Oh! I just remembered.
You can also get him on harvs island for 100k bells
oh slay okay!!
Do you guys know of a discord group that is for dodo codes?
For what purpose? People share dodo codes all the time here to enable trades or visiting
For visiting! I’m new to the game and this group 🙂
Yep, ill dm it to you
Thank you!!!
So there's #island-hangouts🛩️🏝️ and #690093605821480980 for a lot of that, and sometimes people will talk about it in #acnh-chat⛱️. Dodos will be shared in DMs for trades
if i reset my island will i get happy home paradise back or will i have to buy it again?
HHP is tied to your Nintendo account, so you shouldn't have to buy it again if you're playing with the same account you purchased it with before. You have to play through a certain amount of the base game before the DLC will kick in though
okay ty
Question!! When u start the game and are given 3 plots by Tom nook can u villager hunt to fill those plots or are they all auto fills since u have to make furniture for the houses etc
You can hunt for those 3 villagers before you submit the furniture for each plot. If you submitted the items and finished the plot before inviting one from mystery island then it will autofill when you talk to tom nook that day. If you go hunting first. You can invite all 3 villagers on the same day
