if you have a small space between town hall and the airport, what would you put there?
sonic lily
a path
pearl tide
Guys I need help! I tiered all of my town center, and villagers houses, so everything is close together and now I have huge empty spaces and idk what to do with it. Any ideas? I want to do a garden maybe, but the space is enormous. If someone could come look and make suggestions I’d appreciate it 🙂
hidden sable
What can I do to make this a proper moon shrine? (Town name is moon river). My best idea so far is just to put a bunch of blue/purple and white flowers everywhere but thats basically my solution for every part of my town so maybe there's something better I can do here lmao
pearl tide
Maybe get the moon that comes from the celestial recipes and put it in the center!
hidden sable
The moon is there - maybe hard to see but the big white ball is the moon haha
pearl tide
Omg woah I was not seeing that right at all I need my glasses on geez
hidden sable
np🤣
But I do want to go for a natural/ancient shrine vibe
pearl tide
Do you have the nova lights? You could but those around it
hidden sable
Hmm idk if I have those
pearl tide
I have the recipe if you have frags!
next cypress
Some candles maybe would give it more of a "shrine" vibe?
You could also set up like a telescope and stuff nearby for a little moon-viewing station
hidden sable
The nova lights are pretty funky would they take the attention away from the moon?
pearl tide
That’d be cute!
hidden sable
Oh I might move my telescope that would be cute
pearl tide
Hmm maybe, ig I’ve always seen them together in celestial themed rooms so it makes sense. Out of context you’re probably right it’d be a lil funky
woven drift
can someone help me with coming up with a layout?
hidden sable
Hmm maybe some moon stepping stones or something would be cool. Are there any pillars in this game?
next cypress
put in:#map-showcase has:images in the search bar and you can browse stuff people posted here for ideas

There were in new leaf I assume they kept it.

Damn I wish there was a better way to edit islands, one step a time is so damn painful, but they say rome wasnt built in a day 😔

You can come check out my town @woven drift

I will do that

Idk If it’ll help though I’m still not done either

Kdash is your town the "cute/organized" style or the "unordered/natural" style
woven drift
I have a vision in my head but cant get it on paper
hidden sable
I love all the organized towns they are super satisfying but my town is the natural style so I'm looking for inspiration as well
calm narwhal
In need of peoples opinion on my town center. Would anyone like to come over and check it out?
woven drift
@hidden sable I came up with an idea of having a “organized/cute” part on my island where the plaza and stores are and maybe a park en then having a natural style around but its hard
to come up with a good lay out for it
i cant get satisfied
does anyone have a an island i can come to that’s pretty? i need some ideas for filling in empty spaces
with what I come up with
next cypress
I could open mine up for a bit if you want
hidden sable
@woven drift my town is somewhat similar where all the villagers are in a Cliffside village but the front part of my town had to be organized cause there are over 50 flowers in this game and I wanted to display 5 of each type in rainbow order lmao

@next cypress did u do all that legit?
woven drift
@hidden sable oh omg do u have a pic or ur map?

Why the Lord can't we get a different island layout lmao

Holy crap it looks so nice
hidden sable
@woven drift so the squares lining the path are mostly all flower beds hahah. Nooks in it the process of moving and I still have to move 2 villager houses, demo two bridges, build 2 inclines, and build 2-3 bridges
I have pathing almost everywhere but its custom so doesn't show
quasi relic
Wanna show off my museum!
next cypress
there's a trick to custom pathing, if you put a non-custom path underneath it, it will show on the map and also will have the sound of the path underneath when you walk on it

My island is named Paradise. Generic but I like it
naive plank
omg why is it so satisfying to terraform I just unlocked it and it's like I want to remove every mountain just because
woven drift
i’m thinking of removing the lil one just above the museum, so i can make a big lake with stepping stones or something.
hidden sable
@next cypress which would work if the custom path wasn't worn/transparent in places :(
I could put dirt underneath but doesn't look as good as grass
next cypress
ahh, bummer yeah in that case doesn't really work
naive plank
it's so hards making a plan for my island because I keep changing it,, and then when I decide and start making it its just to simple and doesnt look good cry

late trail
I want double south River moths
@slow dagger
Don't, I have it and trust me, its bad!
late trail
It gives way to little space in the borders
It makes it difficult to make what you want

Can anyone help with with my map? I wanna open up the yellow square part so theres some space next to the beach where to can do something with, I'm just not sure what to do with the river.

you can make it go zig zag like mine

Can you use teraforming in other islands??
warped lotus
nope, only on your own
bright raptor
That's a cool idea jony
zealous geyser
okay thanks! ill see if i can make something similar to that 😄

That it you could elbow the river to the right to get even not room but that'll look less natural probably

I need some inspiration. I have like a pretty normal looking town. No real theme. Just need ideas for things to put in it. I have a park, and an outdoor classroom. I'm thinking of adding a cafe and public pool and a boardwalk for my beach. Need more ideas though.

Do stage one flowers count as flowers for the ⭐️ rating?
ivory condor
@next cypress how did u get different colored vending machines and lamp posts?
next cypress
There are different variants of them but each person only gets one of them available through their nook miles shop, those are just the ones I have
you have to trade with others to get the diff colors
these are all the possibilities https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/503783537665769474/697537295972171876/xz1cswwo91q41.jpg.webp

Also what does Jacob ladders flower do in the game?
slate willow
Ima try to get gold roses
zinc schooner
yeah ima get the gold watering can diy then place all my weeds again
it's the only gold tool that's actually useful smh
novel pebble
If I go from 5 to 4 star rating, do Jacobs Ladder flower still spawn? OR do they stop spawning?
Yup XD
slate willow
I’m not a fan of the golden axe
sharp solstice
Thats a really good question idk antlers
keen shale
nobody uses the golden axe
novel pebble
xD
slate willow
Watering can is the best
novel pebble
Do you have a 5 star rating, oscar?
keen shale
apparently customizing the golden watering can resets its usage timer
novel pebble
Oh ok xD
slate willow
I don’t sell my weeds

Does anyone have any ideas on what I should do with the northern half of my island????

what’s wrong with the golden axe?
pastel lily
I'd like some advice on making the map correspond to something like this
I'm thinking of a straight line from the airport entrance all the way to the north, the path ascending to a hill at the top of which is my house, surrounded by river moat
I made a very rough concept like this, with plaza (unfortunate position) and museum flanking the path.
My problem is what do I fill the other areas?
and should I spread out the civilians?
dire thistle
We... can't move the plaza, can we?
keen shale
cannot
dire thistle
I am gonna riot.
pastel lily
The river mouth positions are undesirable, but nothing can be done about it
I'm thinking of building a theme park to the west corresponding to the pier.
But what do I fill the northwest with?
keen shale
The creativity is building around it to make it look nice
pastel lily
How many bridges can we have at any given time? I remember reading it was 8?
keen shale
8 each
pastel lily
8 per model? or 8 bridges plus 8 stairs?
keen shale
Yep, 8 per model, so 16 in total
proper lava
Progress was very slow last night due to demo taking way longer then expected.. entrance has begun tho!
stiff scroll
@humble vault I have experience
keen shale
@pastel lily it probably goes against your reference image, but I think a tiered cliff village would look nice in the northwest
pastel lily
I prefer to have the village down below, so when they look up they'll see the hill
conceptually speaking
keen shale
I see
pastel lily
The design is deliberately "authoritarian". I'm trying to use German design
stiff scroll
I am doing that, personally. It's a work in progress, because I have to wait 5 days for the rest of the rocks to respawn
sullen berry
im really proud of my entrance, but i dont know how to arrange able sisters and the shop (other prt of town) so its cute and feels natural/unplanned. any ideas? please share if you have a cute area for these places!!
keen shale
Going to be a little hard with Ac aesthetic, but I wish you luck.
stiff scroll
@humble vault Firstly, only 3 rocks can be in a single map grid tile (e.g. B2, E6, etc)
So the mining area will be where two grid tiles meet, unless you want two separate areas, 3 rocks each
humble vault
huh
pastel lily
Yea it's pretty hard, I'm quite stumped.
I want utilitarian urban planning with Japanese aesthetics
humble vault
that's super interesting
stiff scroll
Also, in order to force rocks to respawn where you want them, that's a little tricky
kindred yarrow
Yeah, you have to place down patterns or fences all over your town, then remove them after.
whole hound
kindred yarrow
It'd take hours to remove and place.
proper lava
I wish we had more flexibility in themes. Japanese theme dominates so much.
Hopefully we some more of the NL themes in the future.
keen shale
There's much less selection of themes in this game than other game imo
but I hope they remedy that with updates
wintry junco
I need some inspiration for a waterfall entrance.. huge plot of land in the middle between the airport entrance and my main street that I have no idea what to do with
proper lava
There's much less selection of themes in this game than other game imo
@keen shale 100% dozens of sets missing from NL
keen shale
I think the reason Japanese theme dominates is because it's spring, and a lot of JP aesthetic deals with spring themes
proper lava
Hedges / bushes are such a sad thing to be missing
steel cedar
I'm pretty sure they're gonna add things that are missing in future updates
kindred yarrow
It's literally needed, I don't understand why they left it out? Hopefully with the Earth Day update they add in Leif and his shop again.
I hope so! ^
steel cedar
I feel like they might have done it this way so that people who tt don't spoil everything within a month of release
normal vessel
opinions/suggestions? idk how to fill some of the smaller empty spaces towards the bottom of the map
steel cedar
Cause even with NL they released the Amibo update very far into the game's life
next cypress
I wouldn't mind if they never added all the old furniture series personally. I'm glad they got rid of all the tired old styles and hope they don't come back, or if they do, bring them back in a fully redesigned way (like how the rattan furniture takes the place of old cabana but looks way better)
steel cedar
Cute couch > lovely furniture set imo
normal vessel
i'm just happy that we don't get the ugly balloon furniture from balloons anymore
pastel lily
Well either way I love Japanese aesthetics, so that one is quite OK 😃
It's just that I want German influence and the best way to do it seems to be through urban planning
proper lava
@next cypress it's more of I want the diversity that NL had. I don't need those excat sets.
keen shale
Now we got bunny day to replace the balloon furniture 
kindred yarrow
LMFAO True.
normal vessel
yeah bruh that furniture is not the greatest looking tbh
kindred yarrow
I can't wait until I can sell all of this shit.

or even better sell the entire set on the marketplace

And then there's me decorating my whole island in bunny day because my villagers like it and I'm a gracious dictator

What's the worst someone can do to your island when you trade anyway? I just let randoms run around in my place if they want lol. I guess they could run through my flowers which would be annoying but eh I wouldn't be that upset.

once you finish the "story"/get kk to perform, you get terraforming tools which includes a path making tool

I used a website called Happy Island Designer
then I used their screenshot feature to import a photo of my island
Well, I think I'm relatively happy with my design
What I'm not happy with, is that I have to go move everything and destroy all my bridges and inclines

I didnt know you could import your island!! That's gamechanging...
jagged wind
You can import your island?
flat turtle
@hearty lichen you take a picture of your map and match the corners it's super awesome
I use the same website too

After you move all your villagers in a corner then you can really start terraforming. Dont build your rome in a day though! Take it one square plot at a time

Wait do you guys recommend using this on phone or PC?

Take a picture of your islands map. Email the picture to yourself

Oh

Open up the website and follow above picture instructions

Also concerning happy home designer: it works as an idea draft but not well as a literal translation
flat turtle
Itll ask you to match the corners just click on the four and then fine adjust them after
What moe said very true

Yeah sometimes things can look good on the map but terrible ingame
or be impossible to execute

Go with the flow with your own island. Walk around and make sure if feels good. No rush

I preloaded my island screenshot and then outlined the edges today.
I used, like, 40% opacity.

This was my starting place.

Tips?
jagged wind
I overlayed a screenshot of my island into island designer but I can't edit the layout
primal ginkgo
I think you can also take a screenshot and directly upload it to happy island designer and draw over it
hybrid swift
But it looks blurry
And it doesn’t line up
Can I send an image from my switch directly to email?
primal ginkgo
Use a gallery one and post it to your twitter and save it and delete tweet
sage jasper
@hybrid swift I uploaded the image to twitter and it worked.
primal ginkgo
That’s how I get my screenies
hybrid swift
I don’t have social media..
sage jasper
Then you have to line up the edges.
primal ginkgo
Oof make a trash twitter for uploading
hybrid swift
U right where do u upload
primal ginkgo
Twitter and then go to your albums/gallery on home page
sage jasper
Facebook and Twitter are the only options.

Also, if you click on the eye, it shows the drawing version.
You can change that.
Just by drawing over it.

Change the river to land.

No I don’t think so

If you download your drawing as an image, you can reload it.
Like in case you want to do it over multiple days.
next cypress
It's not that bad tbh, gets you a lot of wood and there are nook miles achievements for chopping down lots of trees. so you at least get some benefit

Cuteee I have one so far but the other looks so different in the map so I think I messed it up
sage jasper
@hybrid swift The part where A and B separate for 1 and 2 for top left and then the other corners like that. You can change opacity after you get the corners set up.

woven drift
What do you guys think of this? I was trying to do like an elevated linear park that runs through the island. Any suggestions?
sage jasper
@hardy hearth Ideas for areas to make. Is that what you were asking?
pearl apex
Wait so can I use that happy designer thing on my phone ?
hardy hearth
Uhhh for lack of better words, I wanna terraform/transform my whole island
sage jasper
@woven drift Everything is so straight. If I was you, I'd add in some corners.
hardy hearth
To something better
primal ginkgo
I use it on my phone
woven drift
should i even attempt a bear / rilakkuma face shaped lake i feel like there is just no possible way to make it look clean / cute ...
pearl apex
Oh ok. Does it transfer over to our game ?
hardy hearth
I just started working on island
pearl apex
I don’t think it’ll look clean enough @woven drift
woven drift
@sage jasper Yeah I'll round the corners in game, just didnt want to fiddle with it on Happy Island Designer 😆
pearl apex
How do you guys use your maps like that I can’t figure it out LOL. @hardy hearth
sage jasper
@woven drift Okay, good. 😂
I managed to make rounded corners with mine.
hardy hearth

pearl apex
Yeah how did you get that map pic. I can’t expand my map @hardy hearth
