[royal badger]

Thanks, Echo!

[worldly salmon]

no problem ^^

[gloomy ledge]

Echo MVP!

[worldly salmon]

thanks!! i’m just tryna help out some

[digital stag]

@worldly salmon do you mind giving me a step by step thing to help me set up voice chat with acnh?

[worldly salmon]

sure, so first you gotta make sure you’re in online play and then you open the app on your phone and make sure you’re connected to the same service so your phone can pick up the switch then all you gotta do is hit the animal crossing option for voice chat on the app

the app will do the rest for you

[ocean sierra]

Anyone else feel like the game is laggy when they first started playing?

[digital stag]

how do i know im in online play?

do i have to do anything to get in online play?

[ocean sierra]

What are you trying to do?

[worldly salmon]

if you have someone over or if you’re over at someone else’s island

[tall garden]

Maybe I should have messaged here. If anyone had to guess what a NMT is worth in bells.. what would it be?

[digital stag]

wait you cant meet new people with voice chat?

it has to be friends only?

[ocean sierra]

If you have an online subscription and you’re connected to wifi then you should automatically be online

[worldly salmon]

yup

[digital stag]

it has to be friends only?

[silk knot]

you can sell it at nooks cranny

[worldly salmon]

NMT exact worth is 10,000

and 12,000 with the bell boom ordinance

[tall garden]

No no, I mean I was going to pay someone to collect fishbait/ the clams. But I wasn’t sure how many I should request for an NMT

[quiet siren]

If I receive a villager with custom clothing from a trade how can I permanently get rid of it? Is Isabelle's request only temporary?

[worldly salmon]

it’s really up to you and if you want you could even have them negotiate with you or set a fair price themselves although you could not get your moneys worth

[wraith axle]

Can strangers pick up my planted glowing moss?

[worldly salmon]

yes strangers can pick up plants

you’ll have to close them off

[tall garden]

That’s kind of what I was thinking. But I don’t want people thinking it’s unfair either, fishbait is worth like.. 200 bells though. I wasn’t sure but that’s like.. 50 clams 😂

[worldly salmon]

Well you gotta keep in mind you’re having someone come and do it for you so giving a little more for their hard work is good but not to where it’s bad for you

it’s subjective

[ocean sierra]

Agreed

[worldly salmon]

you can complain to isabelle about the way they dress and they won’t wear that design again

[tall garden]

This is true this is true. Ig I’ll just throw it in the chat and if anyone feels like doing it I’ll work out details with them

[keen elbow]

Does anyone know how to get the diys for summer shells

[ocean sierra]

One way to get them is by picking up the bottle everyday at the beach

[worldly salmon]

sorry i misread the message 😅

[ocean sierra]

I don’t know all the ways to get them but that’s one haha

[worldly salmon]

balloons and like previously stated bottles have them!!

[keen elbow]

Is that the only way?

[worldly salmon]

you could see if people would be willing to trade them with you but yeah as far as i know

[paper moon]

How do I get a shovel?? I need the first tier to get the second one

[worldly salmon]

you could buy the pretty good tools diy pack from books cranny and you’ll get the previous tier!

[gloomy ledge]

You can also always ask in #diy-trade ❤️

[paper moon]

I bought that pack but I still dont have the flimsy one!! Am I doing it wrong? Haha

[worldly salmon]

oh that’s odd i got it when i bought it! but you could also trade 5 fishes or bugs to tom nook and he’ll fork it over!

if not then blathers will give it to you ^^

[paper moon]

I did!! And now I have Blathers

So I can get it from Blathers… okokok

[worldly salmon]

he’ll talk to you about the fossils

[paper moon]

Thank you!! I was worried I did stuff out of order

[worldly salmon]

no problem!!

[paper moon]

I got the shovel 😎

[gloomy ledge]

Victory!

[worldly salmon]

woo!!

[sly lily]

Can anyone tell me which 2 fish I’m missing?

well the museum comes from the owl tent

and wdym by it won’t let you interact with any characters

[plucky seal]

So I’m thinking of selling my switch, is there any way of saving my current animal crossing data to the cloud or smth for if I get a new switch — I’m selling the game card too

[worldly salmon]

the save data saves to the game card unless you purchase it from the e shop you can still try to transfer data but that’s only if you already have an extra switch but your island is unique to your switch

[snow hull]

One message removed from a suspended account.

[worldly salmon]

that’s really weird

[feral elbow]

Did you buy a used copy of the game? Or did you’d start from new?

[ocean sierra]

Can I ask questions about anything in this chat? Something relayed to Nintendo of course

[worldly salmon]

yeah you might have to restart the game

[worldly salmon]

pretty sure it’s only to this game hence the name

[ocean sierra]

Yeah I figured

I’ll ask in general then

[odd solstice]

Does selling the same thing over and over again decrease the value of the item?

[oak basin]

How do break rocks

[odd solstice]

With an axe or shovel

[oak basin]

Which rocks can break

[rich patio]

You need to eat fruit/food first though

[oak basin]

All?

Ah ok

I will eat pant

[pale phoenix]

Question, can I still make a villager who is in boxes into my island despite having a full island?

[rich patio]

No, the only item with a fluctuating value is turnips

[pale phoenix]

Like a friend's villager who's in boxes

[odd solstice]

thank you!!<3

[rich patio]

You need an empty plot to adopt someone’s villager!

[pale phoenix]

fun

[oak basin]

Can I break all my rocks at once

If I eat enough Apples

Are statue of liberty and moyai rare item

[azure sleet]

is it normal that weeds grow in harv's island?
also, how do i progress with the reese and cyrus quest? they were here the day before yesterday but idk where to find them today

[obtuse ruin]

is it better to hunt for sharks on nmt islands

[silk knot]

dpes anyone know what these are called? the flower thingy

[velvet needle]

guys i gave 160 nmts for an ungifted raymond is it good?

[main nebula]

I'm quite new to the game and this server and I was wondering if visiting other people's island is the only way to get non native fruits?

[jaunty flame]

you can get your native and sister fruit from mystery islands, you must trade to get the rest (:

[royal badger]

That’s a pergola, I believe.

[nimble cloak]

That looks to me like one of the Reese and Cyrus wedding items? I don't know for sure tho

[halcyon stream]

https://catalogue.ac/i/14184-4 for the flowers, and https://catalogue.ac/i/13765-3 for the lights!

[main nebula]

Ok thank you so much!

[solemn cave]

What are these items (the ones circled)
I’m going to assume the one on the bottom is just a hermit crab but I could be wrong

[silk knot]

anyone have any tips for me: I am completely re-doing my island, and theming it. If anyone knows how to efficiently get it ready for redesigning (WITHOUT TIME TRAVELING), I would be very grateful if you could share. Also, i have more then enough bells to move everything

[solemn cave]

What’s the theme you’re aiming for?

[silk knot]

I am either going to do a jungle theme, or a suburban town, most likely the jungle theme

[slim dragon]

I need tips on catching a scorpion plz

[solemn cave]

If you’re going with a jungle theme use bamboo and vines
I guess customize items to make them have oldish or something

[silk knot]

ok

I have a lot of items from treasure islands

[peak ridge]

ive broken so many rocks and have gotten 8 items out of rocks, why cant i get the Rock-Splitting Champ achievement

[languid island]

8 items in one rock

[peak ridge]

ive done that alrdy multiple times, still wont give me it

[bold sun]

Are you using a shovel or an axe

[peak ridge]

shovel

[bold sun]

Weird. You just have to hit one rock 8 times with shovel and get 8 items while doing so

[placid elbow]

Does every villager who camps at the camp site have to move onto the island?

[bold sun]

No

If you don't try to make them move into your island they will be gone tomorrow

The very first visitor must move into your island, though

[placid elbow]

Gotcha. Thank you!

[urban lark]

i can't seem to find any set answer on this, so is there a way to reset a villager's home without kicking them?

[plucky lance]

Only with the dlc

[jagged dune]

Do golden rods give a higher chance to catch better fish?

I got one and fished twice and got two sharks back to back

[sterile kite]

Is there a guide for wedding season event please? Thank you

[steady fulcrum]

Hi all, can I ask… my island is pretty laggy… would using custom designs affect it or just having a lot of items?

[sly sky]

Probably the items, I’ve never experienced lag on my island tho so I can’t say for sure

[delicate stag]

https://chibisnorlax.github.io/acnhfaq/events/#wedding-season

[delicate stag]

no, the only thing golden rods do is provide more durability than the other rods

[delicate stag]

custom designs wouldn't affect the island lag afaik

.t lag

[rain crown]

•• FAQ: Help! My island is laggy... ••
The main causes of this are usually one or more of the following:
• Too many (usually animated) items, especially whilst in one area (commonly critters, flowers, or gyroids)
• Too many waterfalls

If you're experiencing island lag, try changing up your layout! Most commonly, that is the issue.
Unfortunately, these issues cannot be prevented with existing dream islands unless the creator optimises their island.

[silk knot]

Is Celeste still in the game?

[nimble cloak]

Yes

[zinc sentinel]

When villagers visit your house do they ever leave on their own?

[mild zinc]

yes

[zinc sentinel]

Danke

[silk knot]

How do I get more villagers

[smoky rapids]

How many do you currently? (only the animal villagers)

[hot laurel]

Is there a way to farm Celeste DIYs

[smoky rapids]

Time traveling and visiting people that have celeste.
Or if you have your weather seed tt to starry nights

[hot laurel]

What if I find a day she is on my island?

Can I continuously go back to that day or no?

[smoky rapids]

That's not how it works

[finite otter]

Question! I was wondering how to add another player to my island that isn’t from my switch. I was hoping to add my s/o to my island when they get it,

[hot laurel]

Sad :,)

[smoky rapids]

She might not be still there but even if she is you will not give you all zodiac recipes

[smoky rapids]

One island = one switch, if your so want to play on your island she needs to do it from your switch

[hot laurel]

Omg I got her the next time I time traveled

[smoky rapids]

With luck it's your only shower that week but that's not necessarily the case

[finite otter]

Nono i meant significant other, so there’s no way I could add em onto my island from a seperate switch? Is there a way to perhaps link an account so they could have it?

[smoky rapids]

Ohhh you can transfer a character

.t transfer

[rain crown]

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.

https://en-americas-support.nintendo.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/53668/~/how-to-transfer-animal-crossing%3A-new-horizons-save-data

[smoky rapids]

I think it might work for one character but am not sure

[finite otter]

Ah I see, so wait would I lose the island on my switch or would be both get it on both our switches

[smoky rapids]

You wouldn't get two islands. I'm not sure how it would go if two main residents come to the same switch tbh... If they do own a switch it might be simpler to create an account on yours and transfer some their items if you can

[finite otter]

Ah what I’m trying to say is that there is one island

I’m hoping to move another resident onto that island

So only one island

[smoky rapids]

Yes I understood that. But your s/o has a switch correct?

[finite otter]

They’re getting one soon

[smoky rapids]

They don't have ac yet?

[finite otter]

Nope

[smoky rapids]

I'm confused to why you would need anything then

[finite otter]

I’m just setting the island up so when they do get it they can just easily ( hopefully ) join the island or however/whatever it’s called and just live there

[finite otter]

Sorry, I was looking into this for future reference

[smoky rapids]

You can't have one island on two switches if that is what you mean

[finite otter]

Oh

[smoky rapids]

One island =one switch. Either they plays on yours or you play on theirs.
If they don't have a lot no need to attempt transfer

[finite otter]

Ah Thankyou!

[hot laurel]

How many Celeste DIYs are there?

[smoky rapids]

It's a function in the game! Talk to them and you can get free fruit and play a game for more gifts.

[mortal cedar]

how many times do i have to shop from mabel to get able sisters?

[keen orbit]

.t able

[keen orbit]

I'm pretty sure it has to do with a spending bells amount at the shop.

[vague crown]

you have to spend at least 5000 bells, do it on her 2 visits and then on the third time she will open a store on your island

[mortal cedar]

tysm!!

[mortal cedar]

ty!!

[vague crown]

np i know that bc i already have them on the island and my MAIN gaol is to get 1 more star rating to get to FIVE!!!

[blazing birch]

how do i get access to storage

and how do I expand my inventory

[royal gulch]

Is it definitely true that only best friends can plant grown bushes? I'm about to trash a lot of bushes based on this

[blazing birch]

i dont have the storage sheds btw

[royal gulch]

Are you very early game? You'll get shown how to access your storage once you get a house, and house upgrades include increased item storage

[blazing birch]

no, i have up to the mable stores

nvm i figured it out, right arrow/d pad on left joycon

[royal gulch]

Walk into your house and press right on the dpad

Storage lockers aren't necessary; they just allow you to access your storage outside your home

[blazing birch]

oh okay

how do I expand my inventory? I have two rows

[royal gulch]

It will go up every time you expand your house

It's always done through paying Nook

[blazing birch]

so the next time i upgrade, my inventory does too?

[royal gulch]

Oh wait, you mean your pockets?

[blazing birch]

yes

[royal gulch]

That's through nook miles rewards from the automatic bell machine

[blazing birch]

oh okay

[royal gulch]

It's called pocket organisation or similar

[blazing birch]

how exactly do i find the pirate gulliver's communicator?

[royal gulch]

Wear a swimming costume and go swimming

[blazing birch]

while swimming i mean

[glossy bison]

It's just a shadow like the fish

[royal gulch]

If you haven't done that before, read the text when you buy a swimming costume

[glossy bison]

You might find 1 or 2 before it but the chances of finding it are high

[blazing birch]

does it have bubbles coming up or is that me

[glossy bison]

Yes it'll have bubbles

[blazing birch]

i got it!

[glossy bison]

Good!

[royal gulch]

If you're still fairly early game, fwiw swimming is good money

[blazing birch]

fwiw?

[royal gulch]

Sorry, for what it's worth

[blazing birch]

its alright, i just didnt know the acronym

[royal gulch]

Did you find the pocket expansion in the nook miles stuff?

[blazing birch]

no not yet, ill do that soon

[royal gulch]

No worries, just making sure you get it

[blazing birch]

whats a bell voucher?

[glossy bison]

You sell it at the nooks for bells

[blazing birch]

how much

[royal gulch]

You probably got it from the maze in May, it's just a bit of fun

[glossy bison]

I wouldn't get them though they aren't much, save your miles for other things

Like under 10k i gotta check the exact number

I wanna say its 2,500?

3,000

[royal gulch]

Ohhh on the nook miles thing, yeah they're a bad economy, don't recommend

[blazing birch]

i cant find it

[glossy bison]

It should say pocket stuffing

[blazing birch]

is it in the nook miles redemption

[glossy bison]

If you just bought one the other won't show up until tomorrow

[blazing birch]

i didnt buy them, i cant find them

[royal gulch]

It isn't that long a list, can you see that there are sections?

Pocket Organisation Guide 5000 nook miles

[blazing birch]

oh, found it

[royal gulch]

I mean this in the nicest way possible, but if you skim read in this game, it can leave you quite frustrated as things are often only explained once.

On the other end of the scale, some things are explained literally every time, which is also annoying!

If you can't get answers quick enough sometimes, this guide might help you find things that you've missed

[proud idol]

How can I itemize my bells and miles so when I get them back from trade I can sell it back as bells and miles?

[swift harness]

How do I know if a villager has a flea? I still haven’t got that yet aha

[glossy bison]

It's hard to spot but you'll hear a little noise and see a speck jumping off of them a bunch

[slender olive]

You can withdraw bells, but you cannot transfer your miles

Only nmts

[proud idol]

Should I buy something with miles then just sell it off after?

[slender olive]

Yes you should spend all your miles before you restart

[kind fable]

you can yeah. you’ll only be able to trade for nook mile tickets or bells though

[slender olive]

Better spend it on furniture

[kind fable]

or other things like clothes, furniture etc i suppose aswell

[slender olive]

Or change it all into nook Mike tickets

They’re used as currency on here

[opaque trout]

How do I add my island info to the discord?

[kind fable]

i’d recommend nook mile tickets. then if you have someone hold your items you’d have nook mile tickets to use on your new island

[proud idol]

I'll do that

[glossy bison]

Explain?

[proud idol]

Also what items besides logs, and rocks should I bring when I reset?

[kind fable]

if you didn’t know already, #request-a-middleman🛎️🙋‍♀️ is a channel for trusted people to hold items for you! make sure to check out #middleman-rules‼️ first though

[opaque trout]

Just when people say .is and their island info pops up

[kind fable]

i’d say any materials like the different woods, rocks, iron, clay and stone. some bells, nmt and then just anything else you’d like to keep like clothes or furniture

[proud idol]

What is nmt?

[kind fable]

nook mile tickets, my apologies

[proud idol]

Also isn't bell vouchers more expensive when sold than nook mile tickets

[slender olive]

Don’t bother with bell vouchers

[proud idol]

Why

[slender olive]

You use nook mile tickets to trade on here

[glossy bison]

They arent worth it

[kind fable]

you can sell 10nmt for 1mil bells when trading with people in here. but you’ll also need them to hunt for villagers for your new island. so they’re overall better

[proud idol]

Ok I'll exchange everything for nook mile ticket

[glossy bison]

Plus vouchers redeem for 3,000 so they are just awful

[proud idol]

500 miles = 3000 bells
2000 miles = 10000 bells

Wont the bell vouchers be worth more?

[kind fable]

no they won’t. people trade for nook mile tickets usually. and nook mile tickets go for a lot. and also have the use of villager hunting.

overall both they are used for will gain you way more

[proud idol]

Okay. So bells, nmt and resources are the ones I should bring and the wand to change clothes and star fragments?

[kind fable]

materials are the best idea to bring. to build the shop and starter plots. anything else you want to bring is up to you :)

[proud idol]

Materials like the ones you metioned earlier like clay rocks and stuff

[kind fable]

if you use the middleman chat you can have them hold up to 4 inventories for you. which is 160 items. a stack of each material is considered one item. so 30 hardwood etc = 1 item. so you’d have lots of space to bring other things too. but yes

wood, softwood, hardwood, iron, stone and clay are best to bring. aswell as bells and nook miles tickets.

[proud idol]

Ok. Also do I pay for the middle man service?

[kind fable]

no it’s completely free. read up in #middleman-rules‼️ first and it’ll tell you all you need to know :)

[proud idol]

Thanks for everything

[kind fable]

no worries. hope it all works out!

[proud idol]

Can I also take the ocarina with me?

[kind fable]

you can yes :)

[proud idol]

Thanks

[twin jackal]

i'#m not sure what the right channel is for this..but for the DLC, if i want to reshuffle the villagers on the beach is there a better way to do it rather than time travelling? I'd really rather not if i can help it haha

[glossy bison]

There are more villagers in the buildings you make! Otherwise it takes a day

[twin jackal]

oh i see! thank you! i only got it yesterday so i better make some of those buildings

[glossy bison]

Good luck and have fun!

[twin jackal]

actually i have one more question- do i have to keep skipping forward? or can i just skip between two days and have the rng reset itself?

[glossy bison]

I think skipping a day resets the villagers and i wanna say going back also does that?

[twin jackal]

nice nice i'll try that thank you! I just fear the weeds and flower growth too much

[glossy bison]

Oh! Put designs around the flowers so they dont spread!

[frosty raft]

if two of my villagers have already had thought bubbles today, but they WEREN'T about moving out- just about gifts and stuff, is it possible for one to have one about moving?

[digital shadow]

Bell vouchers are worth more in Nook's Cranny, assuming that's what you mean but like cricket said, NMTs are valued more in player trades

[digital shadow]

I guess technically yes, but if you are following the time travel method I'd just time travel and not bother looking for a possible moveout bubble. Also, moveout bubbles usually spawn immediatelly when you open the game, so if you don't see any of your villagers thinking from the get-go you most likely won't have one that day (unless the villagers are partakong some activity, I guess. Not sure which takes priority - villager activities or moveout bubbles)

[frosty raft]

I've been time travelling but when I go to the new day, no one has a bubble and I have no idea why 😭 even when I time travel again another hour no one has one.

[digital shadow]

It can sometimes take a while until someone gets a bubble, as it's up to RNG

[potent musk]

Hello everyone, do you have any tips on how to get Ankha as my villager ? Or fastest way to find her ?

[proud idol]

#villager-trade

Go there I think

[potent musk]

How does it work

[proud idol]

I am not sure. I just came back from 2 year hiatus and in the process of resetting. Hahaha

[digital shadow]

If you are talking aboit mystery islands or your campsite, it's all up to RNG. There's no trick to it than hoping you get lucky and find her. You can also use an amiibo to get her to your campsite if you have one.

And as to how trading villagers works, once you have 6 villagers, they have a chance to ask to move out. When one asks to, and you let them, they'll be in boxes (=packing up their stuff) the next day. That's when someone with an open plot can come on your island and ask the villager to move onto their island

[mortal cedar]

how does amiibo work?

& can i reuse amiibo cards

[digital shadow]

.t amiibo || ⤵️ and yes, they can be used infinite amount of times

[rain crown]

Amiibo FAQ
• ** How do I get an Amiibo villager to move into my island?**
You must invite an Amiibo villager and craft them their requested item 3 times in order for them to agree to move in. It doesn't need to be 3 consecutive days, just 3 days total.

• What if I have an open plot?
Amiibos still need to be invited 3 separate times, even if you have an empty plot.

• Can I choose who the Amiibo villager kicks out?
Yes, just make sure you've spoken to that villager at least once and their house isn't currently being relocated.

[mortal cedar]

oh ty :3

[digital shadow]

Np, np

[feral elbow]

Since amiibos kick out a villager, could you use an amiibo to get rid of a villager without the amiibo villager moving in?

[livid trail]

Nope

[solemn cave]

[solid vigil]

Will my island rating be affected if I place over 15 gyroids on the ground?

[livid trail]

Placed shouldn't be a big problem

[reef agate]

does anyone know how to gett a better island rating?

[rain crown]

•• 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.

Hello! Back with a new question lol
Is there a way to craft more pieces at once?
Like: crafting 5 fish baits all at once

• 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.

Just follow what tom nook says

[fierce lantern]

hi
how to take pictures like this?

[digital shadow]

Tilt the camera to the second highest position, then you can also tilt the camera left and right.
I'm not sure if you need the Pro Camera nook miles redeemable or not, as I already had it when I found out about this feature, so if it doesn't work for you, that might be the reason.

[fierce lantern]

if i have handheld mode, means i have the pro camera right?

[digital shadow]

Yeah IIRC the app's name in your phone should also be Pro Camera.

[fierce lantern]

yeah it's pro camera.. lemme try again :c

[digital shadow]

I find it the easiest to first tilt the camera to the maximum top-down view first, then one step lower and then left or right, in case it helps. :)

[fierce lantern]

thankiuuu i will try once ione get out of my house ^^

[digital shadow]

[fierce lantern]

OMG i got it!!! thank you very much

Since I just started my acnh over again, am I able to catalog items and sets before I had even started up nooks cranny and have no shopping app?

[deft mirage]

My island has a river surrounding the plaza and not allowing me to explore past it. I looked online to see when I would be able to cross the river and it says I would have to wait for the museum to finish construction. I am going on a road trip and don’t wanna be blocked for 2 days. Is time travel worth it? I don’t know the risks and benefits of it though.

[smoky rapids]

https://chibisnorlax.github.io/acnhfaq/tt/#time-travel
Overall harmless

[deft mirage]

Can i sync back up without much harm after? I really just need to get the museum unlocked so I can get out of my little blocked in area

I was forced to place down the museum in a bad spot because of this oversight. This is my situation.

Hello people! I was wondering how to add a profile picture thing on the custom designs portal. Right now, when you look at my designs, there is no picture of me on my page. I was wondering how you get the little picture of yourself on the page, but its not really important.

[ember jungle]

I think it's your pasport photo! try opening the passport app and make a cute lil picture of yourself! ❤️

[covert zephyr]

My island has a lot of overgrown flowers and weeds, is there a fast method of removing them?

[glossy bison]

The easiest way i've learned is to get 3 or 4 shovels, a trashcan, and go wild

I wish there were faster methods 💔

[crystal spruce]

There is other way to get rid of weed and flower ask players to remove them for you

[spiral quest]

When you first build the three new houses, can you travel to other islands to get new villagers or is it automatic?

[smoky rapids]

You can get villagers from mystery islands but not other players

[spiral quest]

Yeah, that's what I meant

[glossy bison]

You can only get villagers from mystery islands or it autofills

[crystal spruce]

Mystery island

[smoky rapids]

You need to have completed the house for it to autofill

[spiral quest]

Can I invite villagers if the house isn't completed?

[glossy bison]

On nookazon yes

[glossy bison]

If you place the plot you can get a villager with nook tickets

[smoky rapids]

From mystery islands yes, if you don't have adopted someone if the corresponding personality yet

[spiral quest]

Okay, thank you!

[smoky rapids]

If you don't want to go on nookazon you can also ask in #player-services if you offer compensation.
Bear in mind only best friends can dig on your island

You can get a trashcan from the nooks randomly, otherwise you can just sell what you don't want and the recycle bin is in resident services to the left

if you let a villager with a customized house move out, do they retain the new interior/exterior or does it revert back?

[north cloak]

Yo I moved to the middle of the woods so I let my online expire til I get a hotspot out here, do I have to have it to get codes for designs and clothes?? I could Google this but discord loads faster than sifting through Google answers Tia

Like if I’m on WiFi when I go into town can I still get codes??

[glossy bison]

As long as you have wifi and nintendo online you can get codes

[smoky rapids]

If your online is expired, you can't do any interaction via the internet including codes

Is it possible for someone to give dlc locked items to a person that doesn’t have dlc and use them on the island?

[livid trail]

Nope, you can't drop pillars or counters for example

[devout sand]

Sorry to interrupt but I’ve played animal crossing before but unfortunately while upgrading from a switch lite to a regular switch; my island got wiped :c So im restarting but I guess I’ve kinda forgot how to start 🙈 I was wondering when do I unlock the ladder? Because I was planning on setting up all my villagers homes in a certain place of my island but it’s not reachable without a ladder :T And when do I get the other plots to invite villagers? I’ve already got nook’s cranny and the museum under construction so I just wanted to know when I got invite other villagers over 🙂 and for my last question… I didn’t have the vaulting pole to get across my island when I was placing down blathers tent; and I’m not very satisfied with the placement D: So is it possible to move the museum and how much would it cost?

[jolly sphinx]

So i would need the dlc to get the partitions and counters?

[livid trail]

Yes

[livid trail]

1. Ladder: Start the quest to furnish 3 houses — it should start after Nook’s Cranny is built.
2. You can move the museum after Resident Services upgrades. It's 10k bells iirc

[devout sand]

Thank you very much!

[iron quest]

Okay thx

:D

[digital shadow]

(you only need 8 villagers for 3 stars, but extra ones do give development points so they are good to have still)

Can you put the LCD TV (50 in.) on tables?

I am only a week into playing acnh, I've seen someone using a ladder to get to the higher points of the island, was wondering when you get that, or how you do? Any extra helpful info you think I might need is also welcome.

[vivid hamlet]

I believe Tom gives you a recipe or you can get it from nooks

[sweet dagger]

So you'd say it's random?

Or is it after a certain upgrade of the house

I believe you can make it when you're in the dream world. I think it gives the option between visiting one and creating one

[west crag]

Okay I will try that. Thank you.

[sturdy wolf]

my villager’s house says “I’ve moved out” is that normal? (someone I know was talking to them while they were in boxes)

[runic acorn]

If you don't talk to them for awhile, they eventually leave your island if that's the case

[sturdy wolf]

will another villager be able to move in tho? because his house is still there

[runic acorn]

Yes

[sturdy wolf]

okay tysm!!

[solid acorn]

Can someone give me tips about increasing my island eval to 3

[royal badger]

Add fencing and flowers everywhere.

[quiet fiber]

if i hit a villager with a net until they're angry more than once in a day does it still affect our friendship?

[royal badger]

You can get rid of it later, but put it EVERYWHERE.

[solid acorn]

Lol Everywhere, got it!

[plucky lance]

yes, but it won't affect moveout chances if that's what you're after

it also won't decrease the actual level, even if the points drop lower

[quiet fiber]

...really?/rt thank you so much

[runic acorn]

Can original villagers move out? Or just invited ones

[sly storm]

Is there anyway to know when shooting stars will be happening

[sly storm]

They all can if one of your villagers are asking to move out and you just started playing then just resets and wait for it to go to the village or that you want to move out

[plucky lance]

you can use an external site to track down shooting stars and weather patterns to find your island's weather seed

[plucky lance]

both can! as long as whomever you're targetting weren't your most recent to move in

[sly storm]

Do you know what the website is called

[plucky lance]

meteonook is the one I see mentioned the most- I don't think there's any 'official' ones out there

[runic acorn]

Cause I have hazel and Jay and really don't like them

Hazel has had thought bubbles but I don't want ro chance it by talking to her because she might not be thinking of leaving yet

[solid acorn]

Is it OK to pick flowers I have planted

[runic acorn]

They grow back

So yea

Salmon

[autumn pecan]

i put a boot out but i never see flies around it i can catch

[plucky lance]

they're a rare spawn- be patient

you can also pluck all your flowers and cut your trees to increase spawn chances though

[autumn glen]

So I'm having this weird problem with fishing

Like a rare fish like a shark looking shadow will appear and I cast my line to catch it
What happens is the fish immediately grabs the line and pulls it down but when I click to reel it in it runs away

So am I doing it wrong? Do special fish have special ways to catch them?

[oak basin]

You are just clicking at the wrong time, most likely late

Special fish do not have special ways to catch them

Do you need 5 distinct friends to water your flowers for maximizing Hybrid chance

[mild zinc]

you may just be clicking too slow, u need a really fast reaction time for some of the fish to be caught successfully

[royal badger]

I don’t believe you can do that. (I could be wrong, though.)

[plucky lance]

While you answered correctly, the pic they sent is a festivale stall. So it can’t be crafted. XD (not mad btw. Just a heads up for the future)

[mild zinc]

ohh

[plucky lance]

You’ll unlock the Harv abd as you unlock co-op stalls iirc (I’m not 100% sure though so verification would be nice xD)

If you plant a mushroom in a hole, would it regrow as an unplucked mushroom?

If you order five items on the shopping app and time travel to a different day then time travel back will it not let you order any more items on the app that day or will it not remember?

[frigid ferry]

Forgive me if this is a dumb question but I couldn’t find it. My gf brother took the switch away and she had an island on there. I just bought her a new one but all her stuff is gone. Is there a way to get any of it back?

[plucky lance]

Don’t think so. Although when you dig it up it’ll be the same mushroom you buried it as

[plucky lance]

It won’t let you order

HEYYY guys^^
So i bought acnh rn and now I have to choose my starting island is that important or can I change the Lay-out later?

[inner iris]

But now let’s say I got this resident who has a deep voice (a penguin called hopper) and I dislike their looks a lot- I have to deal with them (ignore them) now until I can kick them out again ? 😭🥲

Because I’m pretty sure I read you can’t kick your most recent resident

[mild zinc]

you can change your layout later, aside from the town hall's location and where the rivers start [the spot where they connect with the ocean]

[barren tangle]

Okayyy thank you<3

[mild zinc]

yes thats true, so unfortunately you have to wait until another villager moves out, then another moves in, to be able to kick them off your island

[inner iris]

So I’m stuck with this resident? Is there any possibility I can change their eye color & / voice tune & / personality? 👀

[digital shadow]

You can change everything but the beaches, river mouths, rocks and airport and plaza locations, so focus on those when picking! (oop, didn't see kazu's reply TvT)

[mild zinc]

no, u cannot change any physical characteristics about a villager aside from clothing

Hi hi, experienced blue rose breeder here. I've been using the asteriation genepool method from this site with isolated pairs as my layout ⤵️ take a read and see what method might be the best for you, considering the pros and cons listed! Asteriation genepool is one of the more advanced methods on the site, though don't be afraid of picking it if you feel like you'd enjoy a challenge. I used an advanced method for my first ever blue roses as well - it's not too hard to grasp :) and can recommend the isolated pairs layout in any case. Feel free to ping if anything more comes up

Stand next to a wall, select what you want to hang and there should be an option to "hang on wall" or "display on wall" or something similar. or you can enter design mode, press + to enter wall mode and just place them there!
Pretty much the same procedure for custom clothes as the first way I explained

Thank you

he wont actually reward u something new/expensive [since he doesnt know what u have/dont have and doesnt understand value of items], id say its worth it just cuz you may get something new, but sometimes he gives you completely useless items

Hellos. Is there a negative to crossing with native flowers from the island

I know about the genotypes thing but is it still ok to cross with them?

[smoky rapids]

well if you didn't get any rain at all; they should be seed genetics; but if it rained they you cannot tell the genetics, and so might not get the results you want

Ahhh but it’s still ok?

[rain crown]

•• 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? ••

[sweet dagger]

Can you eventually move all of your villagers houses, or do they stay where they are permanently?

[livid trail]

You can move all buildings except the airport and RS

[obtuse terrace]

And resident services

[quartz bay]

Can anybody give advice for starting?

[obtuse terrace]

i know it sounds contradictory to what the internet says, but listen to what tom nook says. He is the center of your progression right now. Also collect resources like wood and stone every day

[thorny light]

what do i do with the gyroid pieces i find on the island taken by the boat?

[digital shadow]

She's a gal in western countries and a guy in Japanese versions of the game

[digital shadow]

Bury, water, dig up on following day

Wtf I was customizing some items with Cyrus and some items disappeared from my storage shed and catalog. I had red and blue shopping carts and changed them to yellow and green and now I only have 1 blue and it's the only one cataloged.

[sweet dagger]

The ladder recipe (the one you can build to a side of a mountain), the ladder that is produced, does that break eventually or is it a permanent alternative to the handheld ladder?

[rich rampart]

How do I buy the wedding stuff from Cyrus???

[viscid fox]

Talk to him before you decorate his wedding anniversary

[rich rampart]

What just go up to him?

[livid trail]

None of the ladders break

[sweet dagger]

Oh, good to know. Thanks!

[viscid fox]

Yeah after you tell harv you want to take wedding photos

Hell be inside photo with his wife, just talk to him

[rich rampart]

Okay I'll give it a go

It won't let me they just keep asking to use it

[gritty pebble]

Plant them and water them

[plucky lance]

Try doing a session first then

[visual carbon]

Can someone briefly explain the turnip stock market? I don't really understand how to use it well

(I have looked at many guides I just don't get it really)

[livid trail]

Buy for low prices on Sundays and sell them when the price is high at Nook's Cranny during the week.
The prices at Nook's are random so if you are not planning to visit other players to sell turnips, then the best you can do is track your prices with a tool like Turnip prophet to have an idea when it's better to sell.

[visual carbon]

Thanks, this seems a lot less complicated than I thought it to be. Is Turnip Prophet an app or something?

How do I switch villagers who want to move out?
I want Shino to leave, but Chelsea has the thought bubble instead.

[smoky rapids]

You need to wait (or time travel) tomorrow for potentially a new villager asking

Remember Shino cannot ask if she is currently :the lastest one to move into your island, or the latest one you said no to

[royal badger]

Last one to move onto my island was Étolie, and Shino has never asked. Thanks for the response! : D

[vast bison]

ive been trying to get this villager to move out using yue's method but it doesnt seem to work for me anymore.. is there any other alternative?

[rich patio]

Is the villager you’re trying to move out the most recent one to move in?

[eternal horizon]

will travelling to someones island who has time travelled back in time, also fuck up my game?

[rich patio]

Nope

[vast bison]

nope

[rich patio]

In that case, I’m not entirely sure what the issue could be. Sounds to just be bad luck and you’ll have to keep trying. Sorry I couldn’t be of more help!

[vast bison]

thank u anyway ❤️ have a great day !

[smoky rapids]

Are other villagers getting a bubble at all?

[vast bison]

one got it once, so i closed the game and time traveled to the next day as the guide says but the bubble didnt pass on to another villager

[smoky rapids]

Ah yes but you need to continue, the bubble isn't guaranteed everyday

[vast bison]

i keep time traveling day by day after tting to the next month and no results

[smoky rapids]

OK so what I usually do, keeping yue's method as a guideline.
Talk to all villagers (no need if you introduced yourself to them) save.
TT one month, save. (to skip bed hair animation)
TT day per day.
If you don't have any bubbles after 2 weeks of day by day, start over

[vast bison]

oh, right now it passed on to another villager that i wanna keep, i guess ill keep trying

[smoky rapids]

Best of luck!

[vast bison]

thank you sm !!!! ❤️

What are some good items to collect for a junglecore island? I already know of bamboo partitions, garden rocks, log items, and plants... but idk if there are other good stuff to add.

I know that if you gift clothing to a villager they can wear it, but what happens to furniture when you gift it?

[warm python]

They can place it in their house

[covert portal]

Oh, so it'll replace something that used to be in the house? :0

[warm python]

.t replace | Villager's houses have slots for different size of furniture items, they can either place gifts in empty slots, or replace an existing furniture item ; see the guide below for exact details on how it works

[rain crown]

•• Replacing Clothing ••
• Villagers' gifted clothing can be removed by complaining to Isabelle about the way they dress when they actually wear the clothing item in question (note that she will remove all items currently worn by the villager).

•• Replacing Furniture ••
• Villagers have the option to invite you to visit their house when you are at a high enough friendship level. During this visit, they'll eventually propose you to buy one of their displayed items. Doing so will remove the item from their house.
• Owners of the Happy Home Paradise also have the option to directly customize villagers' houses after completion of the main part of the DLC. This also unlocks the option to reset the houses to their default layout via Isabelle.
• Otherwise, refer to this guide for furniture replacement information: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Iql5J5BXG-SuJvtw_duLZzjIw5myGcFnEL-I3BSR_CE/edit?usp=sharing

does anyone know how to get rid of a villager without time travling 2 months further???

you can travel one month, save, then travel a month back, then go forward a day when a villager has a thought bubble and go back a day when there isnt

theres a turtorial on yt

what does the wooden ladder set-up do? i feel dumb asking but is this new??

[warm python]

It adds ladder along a cliff side

[plucky seal]

Oh poop

[plucky lance]

You can enable backup. And I wonder if you can restore it from there

[unreal swift]

Not sure if anyone else said this first, but save data never saves to any Switch game card. Regardless of whether it’s physical or digital, save data always saves to the system memory or an SD card

[unreal swift]

Despite the answer you received earlier, other people actually can view your island’s daily selection via Nook Shopping (I’ve done this before by using the Nook Shopping app on the in-game phone), but they can’t buy anything from it

[round garden]

aw man that sucks, i was hoping to get my friend buy an item from it with my money since I missed the truck for sale

[visual carbon]

Thanks :)

[plucky lance]

Wait how? Does it change when you visit? Or did you send the other person a pic through an external communication method like discord?

[unreal swift]

It changes when you visit another island, shows you what their Nook Shopping offers that day

[plucky lance]

Oh huh. Interesting. Thanks!

[vast bison]

nooklink on the nintendo switch online app keeps showing my old island, but i restarted the game recently.. how can i fix that?

[versed furnace]

maybe try logging out the account and back in, that may fix it

[vast bison]

nothing sadly

[royal oracle]

Hi, so I’m having trouble on a weather pattern app (it’s called wuffs.org) you can log in your weather pattern every hour to see what seed you have for the month/year, but I don’t know what the numbers mean on the side (I think it means the cloud type but I’m not sure) and I need help

[smoky rapids]

You need to relink your phone in the - menu on the title screen

[smoky rapids]

Forgive me it's been a while but I'm pretty sure the numbers on the left is just the hour

Once you have entered enough only one pattern is left

[royal oracle]

Thank you so much!

[smoky rapids]

Also just as a fiy, don't use special cloud as it's not up to date. And skip event days.

The safest is to use only start times (to the minute)

[royal oracle]

👍🏼 okay! :))

[plucky lance]

After you relink like Nours said, go into the settings in the nooklink app part of the NSO app and click “change players”

[final jackal]

Do you mean before building the tailors?

[sweet dagger]

Yes

[true flume]

Is it like scorpion island where it’s only reachable when sharks are spawning?

yes, that's what Jade meant (at least the way I interpreted your words, Jade, please correct me if I'm wrong)

[oak basin]

Whats the difference between Photos and Posters

[plucky lance]

posters are wall-mounted items, photos can either be mounted or placed. Also like irl, photos have a frame

[oak basin]

Ty

Which is more valuable

[final jackal]

can somebody help me find a name of a furniture i put a photo of it in the acnh media i thought it would be easy to find but i guess not

[vast bison]

thank u sm ! turns out u have to press - at the start of the game and select the 'nook link' option. after that, you will be able to select the new character on the nintendo switch online app

[digital shadow]

Yeah, that's the linking we were talking about glad you figured it out

[digital shadow]

Photos are only able to be rarely gotten as gifts from villagers when you have max friendship with them.
Posters can be freely ordered from Nook Shopping once you've brought the villager on Harv's photo studio.
Photos are much more valuable

[oak basin]

Ty again!!

I'm trying the Asteriation Genepool Method for blue roses now btw

[digital shadow]

[oak basin]

Do these three different colored clone roses all have the same Blue Rose chance when bred with themselves at 5.1%?

Or is there one I should prioritize?

(I see the flower distribution thing at the top right and am unsure of how to interpret it)

[smoky rapids]

The 1110 ones should be separated but the children are the other types from the breeding (red orange and black), basically the children can be these different genotypes and you can't really distinguish, so put them separate but in a breeding configuration and with luck you'll get a blue. If you get whites from this, trash them, but put the red children from this new batch back with the rest

Like the first 3 red 0% blue can not be born from the 1110 reds

[oak basin]

Ah ok. So basically, put the 1110 Reds off to the side and take whatever Reds/Oranges/Blacks they produce. Put these off to the side and clone and breed until you get a Blue.
Do I only recycle any Reds acquired from this? What if I get for example an Orange from Orange/Orange clones breeding? Or are those new Oranges now a genotype that makes Blues impossible?

[smoky rapids]

Ah wait, I might be confusing two methods here

So you do isolate red oranges and blacks from the 1110. You clone, and do isolated pairs. So orange from 1110 with its clone, same with black etc. Any red that come from this should be a clone of the parent red and you can add it to pairs if needed

[oak basin]

Np

I too am confused aha

I guess my high school knowledge of inheritance doesn't help too much here

[digital shadow]

AFAIK they all have the same chance. Even if they didn't, you still should just breed all the reds, oranges and blacks assuming you have room to do so

[oak basin]

Tyvm!

Yea I'm starting a new island haha

So I should have plenty of fertile land

How are the seed Whites, Reds, and Yellows acquired?

I guess I can do this at the same time I make my Rock Garden too

[crimson kestrel]

Where do I go to trade art in the game

[digital shadow]

Either from Nook's Cranny or Leif who both sell them seasonally and randomly (part of the stock is seasonal, part random IIRC)
Here are the seasons each flower is sold during ⤵️

[oak basin]

Also, at this step, is there ever a point where I should discard the Red Betas? Like if I have enough clones? Or is it fine to just have them sitting there pumping out clones

[oak basin]

Ty!

[smoky rapids]

Keep the beta red

It's to "feed" your bonus batch

[oak basin]

Perfect, Roses are being sold now in the Northern Hemisphere! So that means all colors of Roses can appear, right?

[smoky rapids]

Also it gives a chance of blue

[oak basin]

Ohh true

[smoky rapids]

Yup you can buy all 3 seed colors

[oak basin]

So basically keep the Red Betas pumping out clones that I can further my genepool with, and there's the lucky chance for Blues

[smoky rapids]

Yup

[oak basin]

This is such a cool method! Also not as difficult as I expected :o

[smoky rapids]

It's not as fail proof as the single color one but a lot quicker

[oak basin]

Initially I wanted to try the Paleh method

But I think with a new island I have plenty of space to work with

And also no need for Purple testing which prolly saves a lot on time

How do I get redd to switch his paintings on harvs island if both are fake?

[warm python]

Buy them, or wait for the next week

Also note: Redd can only sell up to 2 real art pieces per week on Harv's commune

[scenic mirage]

So only on mondays he changes his paintings?

[warm python]

That, or the day after you buy any of his art pieces, he'll replace the bought one(s)

[lyric wigeon]

does anyone know if things that drop naturally (shells, branches, rocks) count towards clutter when you get the "too much clutter" island eval or just furniture/tools etc? what about dropped flowers? (like, dropping an individual picked flower, as opposed to a whole plant)

[warm python]

No, items that generate naturally on the ground do not count as clutter for the island rating

Plucked flowers will count, though, as they can't naturally spawn on the ground

[lyric wigeon]

thank you!! i like leaving the branches around my campsite to add to the campground feel but i was worried they might be contributing. now i just have to figure out what i DO have lying around that i forgot about i guess lol

Off the top of my head, stuff that don't count are: branches, stones, seashells, star fragments, and maybe mushrooms too

[bleak rose]

hi yall. so i got a questino about acnh. i kept hearing a weird 'noise' like a notification noise? not sure if it came from my game, my phone or something else in my irl bedroom. it was like a 1-2 second notifcation that went from high to low, like a text message notif. it happened only like 3 or 4 times and my switch was idle while on acnh. is this a notif in acnh? what for?

i know its random and not really specific, but maybe someone who plays has heard this notif sound ingame and could help? it only happens for a sec, like a text notif, and goes from high to low, like a vibrating. it happened while i was 'afk' and my screen dimmered while on acnh

since playing again ive not heard it since. but its driving me crazy w paranoia just incase! 😭

[digital shadow]

Might be a nook miles task completed sound? Not sure if it happens more than once, though, as you were AFK when you heard it

[bleak rose]

also, another thing... in the top left corner, i have an icon showing the phone, but the screen is GREY. (the phone screen, in the top left corner), and it says to press ZL. but when i press it to open my phone, there are no notifs...

i open and close the phone and the icon doesnt go away. 😭

[digital shadow]

(AFAIK then it's not the nook mile notification )

[bleak rose]

@digital shadow i hope my game isnt broke. im so lostttt

[smoky rapids]

It's probably not maybe just unlocking miles but not completing them?

[bleak rose]

the icon is there of the phone, to check it, but the icon is grey and ive got no notifs to check. 🥺 and i kept hearing that weird notif vibrating sound every now and then its so madness

[smoky rapids]

Try using you right joystick on your miles menu

It should jump directly to the notification

[bleak rose]

i just restarted my game and its not going away 😢 and ive tried, theres nothing sadly

a bit blurry, but thats the icon. its greyed out and wont go away even after checking each and every option on the nookphone

even restarting my game wont make it go away

[smoky rapids]

That is curious indeed

[bleak rose]

i 100% promise ive checked everything on the nook phone. it just wont go away

[slate escarp]

is that icon supposed to go away? mine just stays up I'm pretty sure....

[smoky rapids]

Yes but it's not supposed to make noise

[bleak rose]

ive never seen it before

[digital shadow]

AFAIK it's just always there as a button indicator

If you have a notification, it has the app's icon on the screen

[slate escarp]

yeah that's what I thought, maybe your notifications are coming from somewhere else on the switch? idk I haven't messed with it but if it has any background apps or notifications from like online maybe that's why

[bleak rose]

im looking at old screenshots in my switch album of wheni was 'idle', and that icon isnt there in any of the photos (taken with the switch screenshot icon, not ingame)

ive only specifically noticed it right now

[foggy loom]

maybe its a glitch

[digital shadow]

How often did the sound play? Constantly?

[bleak rose]

so nobody has ever heard of a notification on acnh that goes from high to low vibrating for a second or two? like ever?

[slate escarp]

not when idling

[bleak rose]

like once every 5 or so minutes but it only happened like 4 times before i went on my switch again and the noise has stopped

[digital shadow]

Very weird indeed

[bleak rose]

so am i being paranoid then? is that grey phone icon there for everyone else? like when you stand still? D:

it just feel slike my brain has never noticed this before

[slate escarp]

my phone icon stays up afaik

I remember being confused by it early on

[digital shadow]

Yes, it is there for me too. Even checked a minute ago

[bleak rose]

soo mad ive never noticed the grey phone icon before. i feel like m y brains never ever picked up on this before 😭 🥲 i feel so dumb/stupid. but i guess its normal if it happens to others too.

thanks everyone<3 for the help :>

Other than working and exchanging bells to poki, is their any other way of earning poki?

[livid trail]

Nope

[vapid token]

You could get poki quite quickly from just remodeling villager houses, going there and just clicking finished (you don't need to move or add anything to get the poki.) I think that's only really worth it once your rank is higher and you earn more poki each time (sorry i know that counts as working & you might already know that lol)

If your a GOAT designer I think you get 15000 poki from remodelling a villager home each time.

i've put out a lot of stuff around the island, too - surfboard, radio, table, bench, stool, water baths, wave breaker, lighthouse, LOTS of trees, two benches, i mean...more stuff

no, i have 4? maybe 5?

villagers, i mean

three bridges, one incline

[mild zinc]

to be able to get a 3 star island you need at least 8 villagers, 10 for 5 star

[solid acorn]

isabelle keeps saying flowers

OH

that beezy is lying to me, then?

[mild zinc]

i mean you may need more scenery too, but im pretty sure your villager amount is whats blocking you from increasing to 3 star+

[solid acorn]

aight, tysm! to fix that, i sell plots of land or buy or something?

[hybrid whale]

How often does Redd show up? I don't have any art and need at least one piece to start the quest for Brewster

[mild zinc]

yup! talk to tom nook and say you want to sell some land

[solid acorn]

did that last night, chose a place, but nothing was built overnight

[mild zinc]

he shows up at least once every 2 weeks iirc, you can also set up his shop at harv's plaza

[hybrid whale]

thx!

[mild zinc]

if you placed a plot last night, then it should have been sold today, tomorrow the house should be built

[solid acorn]

i have a rhino, penguin, bear, red guy, black cat, hammy (i love him)

oh and a goat

b-baby

[mild zinc]

if you go to the spot where you placed the plot, you can press a when youre at the "sold" sign and itll tell you whos moving in tomorrow

[solid acorn]

OOOO COOL! tysm!

[mild zinc]

yw!

[languid gust]

is there any viable method of earing money with time travelling?

[flat canopy]

Yes! You get .5% interest from your savings account, and if you time travel and check back to your savings account, you'll have more money. (had a friend who did this)

[languid gust]

but wasnt this patched?

[mild zinc]

the interest you get from savings isnt a glitch its a game mechanic, it wouldnt be "patched"

[languid gust]

i think it was lowered or nerfed with time travel

[solid acorn]

^^ i am here for this, please tag me (i'm working so i'll check later)

[mild zinc]

do you have an example? not sure what youre referring to

you just build mountains around your entrance and place an incline like normal
ofc youd need the terraforming tool first

[sturdy wolf]

what is the name of the pink fence thing?

[livid trail]

https://catalogue.ac/i/12779-5

No, you can use the same plot more than once

Yes

[mild heron]

How do I get Kapp’n on my island? I just got three stars and I always check the pier and hes not there.

Is it certain days or do you have to unlock him somehow?

[livid trail]

The day after KK's first concert

[mild heron]

It’s that day on my island, and yet I don’t see him.

Oh wait, read that wrong.

💀.

[halcyon girder]

I have the villager Biff and when I searched up his house online the inside look different then mine and idk why (this is the one I see online)

[wild lodge]

what does yours look like? ❔

[halcyon girder]

Wait a sec I gotta get him in his house

[wild lodge]

ok!

[halcyon girder]

I can't get him in his house but it is different is has a wooden Mosaic wall and it has this weird end of a wood log on the wall with a wooden table in the middle vastly different to the one online

[smoky rapids]

Biff is your starter villager, all 5 starter villagers get different houses than they noramlly would. you'd only get his normal house if you have the dlc and ask isabelle / decorate yourself; or if you let him leave and invite him back

[halcyon girder]

Oh I see but you can ask Isabella with a DLC to do that how?

[smoky rapids]

yes she can reset a villager's hom now, once your reach a certain point in the dlc (or maybe tom nook can)

[halcyon girder]

I'll have to check that out later when I get back on my switch

[ebon osprey]

how do i add a friend in acnh?

[royal badger]

Be friends with them on your switch.

You need to have a linked account for this

[smoky rapids]

once you have each other's friend code, you need to visit each other for friends to register on animal crossing

[ebon osprey]

ohhh ok

[digital stag]

can anyone help me with something

can anyone help me enable voice chat with the nso app and animal crossing?

[neon plover]

Hey guys, returning player here! Since I havent kept up with the patch notes, id like to know if they patched/nerfed the forced scorpion spawn method for the mystery islands (where you would clean it up completely and only scorpions would spawn)

Thanks! :)

[hybrid schooner]

My friend has a character on my island, would she be able to transfer just that character to her game when she gets her own Switch or would it have to be the whole island?

Follow up question if yes: would any villagers that moved from my island to hers remember who she was?

[livid trail]

Yes, that's not very effective anymore

[oak basin]

How long does it take from starting the game from the beginning until you can fly to other islands?

[livid trail]

1 in-game day

[oak basin]

Ty

[dim anvil]

Does anybody know where people make wishlists? Especially the ones that show the colors of the item at the bottom?

[livid trail]

.t transfer - you can only transfer the character and the house in that case. More details in the link below

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.

So since it takes 1 in-game day to unlock flying to different islands, you need to time travel in order to use island reset item holding in #request-a-middleman🛎️🙋‍♀️ 😱

[tender spruce]

Yes...? Were you asking for confirmation?

[royal oracle]

(Sorry for responding late!) do you want me to drop them off to you?

[zinc gorge]

is it easier to fish for sharks on nmt then your island

[silk knot]

Hey - I'm looking for my friend I met on reddit; idk her discord tag but my reddit was suspended. Can someone tell me where to find her? (ping me)

[zinc gorge]

is it easier to fish for the sharks on nmt island than your own island

[dense wolf]

why can’t i dream? i have my house upgraded and am connected to the internet

[digital shadow]

Resident services has to upgrade first; you'll get a letter from Luna once you unlock dreaming

[dense wolf]

okay cool thanks

[zinc gorge]

is there a difference between fishing on a nmt island and your own island

[oak basin]

Regarding ACNH info, is the Animal Crossing Fandom Wiki or Nookipedia better

[final jackal]

Totally fine and sure let me open my gates

[royal oracle]

Ok! 🙂

[silk knot]

Hey! So I have redd on Harvey’s island but I don’t have the art exhibit yet… is it still possible for him to show up on my island when I get the requirements? (I honestly don’t know how this happened)

[mild zinc]

yes, even if you have shops built in harv's plaza they will still come to your island periodically

[dim anvil]

Does anybody know where people make wishlists? Especially the ones that show the colors of the item at the bottom?

[mild zinc]

a lot of people use villagerdb to make wishlists, but im not sure what the specific one youre looking for is called

[dim anvil]

Gotcha. Thanks!

[oak basin]

Can you talk to Celeste on other people's islands and receive DIYs?

[silk knot]

Thanks!!!

[mild zinc]

iirc yes

[oak basin]

Ty

[silk knot]

Guys where do I store my extra trees

[mild zinc]

you cant store them, you can either plant them somewhere or sell them at nook's

[silk knot]

Oh no okay thanks

[digital shadow]

catalogue.ac can be a great one too, if you make a list of your items it'll show the colour variant in the list under the item's image

[digital shadow]

Can confirm that you can, but also remember that you can only get one DIY fron her a day, no matter the island you are on

[oak basin]

👍

[dim anvil]

Thanks sm! I desperately need to make one lol

[upper storm]

Hey guys does anyone know what these things are that I have circled in the picture?

I cant find what they are anywhere pls help

[vagrant sphinx]

It looks like it may be storage sheds
