@opal flicker thanks for the offer, whenever you can I could come :D
@agile yarrow show is pictures!
Soooo I will try moving everything to make it a straight line
Does anyone have some resident area inspo pics? For villager houses uwu
hi all, i'm a day 3 noob. I have 3 plots that i need to build and was told I should plan properly where I want to put these but tbh, I have no idea
I see alot of people giving their villagers fenced gardens and I really like that idea!
I think early game you don’t have to worry! You can eventually move things
Oh i see
AHHHH IM EXCITED
You can move everything except resident services and river mouths
SO MANY NEW CUSTOM DESIGNSSSSSSSSSS
that makes sense right? I dont want to hinder my experience from worrying too much
I want to visit a maze, anyone?
Kelp where are you seeing this
But if you wanna avoid that nonsense think what you wanna make things look and plan for it ahead of time @elder pebble
hi all, i'm a day 3 noob. I have 3 plots that i need to build and was told I should plan properly where I want to put these but tbh, I have no idea
@elder pebble what i wish i had done was put them all on the beach so when i unlocked terraforming i could place them exactly where i want them. if you have them placed in your island and want to change something, you have to pay 50K/house to move them 😦
Wdym lulu
Custom patterns
twitter, reddit
But if you wanna avoid that nonsense think what you wanna make things look and plan for it ahead of time @elder pebble
@primal wyvern gotcha
@hidden kindle pure genius fuck
i would prep everything until you get terraforming so you can really go design your island
Is there a particular one you suggest :0
putting them on the beach means you can make all your plans ahead of time and then put them exactly where you want them later
Dm me pls ;;
@patent sky https://www.reddit.com/r/ACQR/
@hot imp Very nice graveyard!! I'm jealous, I want to make one but I'm out of room 😂
@hidden kindle thank you aaaaa; i feel lol i have a lot of things i want to do but no room... highkey thinking of totally changing my layout lol
Depends what ur looking for
also #path-codes and #clothing-codes
keeping my town cuz i love my villagers and resident hall but i dont like how i terraformed it xD
putting them on the beach means you can make all your plans ahead of time and then put them exactly where you want them later
@hidden kindle thanks for your comment freda - i don't really know what terraforming is at this point
if anyone wants design tips/ratings on their things/tips I can help 🙂
@lament cloud thank you ☺️
putting them on the beach means you can make all your plans ahead of time and then put them exactly where you want them later
@hidden kindle thanks for the tip though, i appreciate it
Any entrance ideas with a close resident service? I’m trying to make it work but struggling please help
Sameee
make the entrance into a plaza/square area
my resident services are too close
so I made the entrance a whole area
the entrance doesnt have to be limited to a small narrow path, it can be grand and unique meaning it can be stretched
How did you get them to display upright like that?
simple panels
I love the use of the custom hats
ikr
Simple panels are so versitile
I have hats like that on my island cafe too
i need to find another burger
does anybody actually have a spare simple panel DIY recipe?
It's not a diy recipe
oh
Once I get all the kk tracks I want to expand my main street
This is how close it is
Does anyone know of something similar to these stone paths/pattern
does anybody have a pic of a farm?
@woven drift you're the best ty
Does anyone have any resident area inspo? I know I keep asking lmao
i need some help with my museum. idk what to do with it
Or layouts for villagers living close to one another with gardens?
@woven drift thanks for the map layout! Your island looks so good!!!
Who lives right next to you?
oh lol
I need help idk what to do with these two southern rivers
when you have 7 stalls of fully custom designs WEE IT'S NOTE NOUGH
...
can someone give me museum inspo?
oo thats nice
@woven drift can i steal that lolol
it's not even mine lmao
Is it weird that I only really want 2 levels instead of 3 on my island?
XD its so smart
tho i do have em
Ohhh. Please send!
Anyone know the name of this item?
Any advice or opinions? Honestly lost on what to do with the whole left half and just idk. I.finally unlocked Terraforming yesterday or today and idk lol
@woven drift awesome, thanks
@golden bison yiy get that from pocket camp
How do you get the pocket camp items?
The only good part of my island lmao
@woven drift #misc-pattern-codes
Sorry!
Np
Your not even a mod XD
i legit said that out loud lmao
But eh whatever, doesn't take a mod to tell me
Your pics hid my image kinda lmao
Sorry.
Bruh
Lmao
😐
I’m proud of that
No worries !
Took 4 DAYS lmao
Awesome :)
This chat goes pretty fast so don't be upset if your image after like 5 seconds get pushed up, it's not only you XD
I wish I could click on your pic and scroll
@woven drift do you have the QR codes for those museum signs?
that's beautiful and @wintry junco i'll dm u
Ty
What I started with vs what it currently is
Damnnnnnnnn
^^a whole mood
I'm ashamed to have ever posted mine xD
@rocky radish I have two southern rivers too and idk what to do with them
Should i make my first level all land so that i can do some Gauging in terraforming?
anyone have symmetrical grid-based island designs i can have inspo from?
Mine looks so basic in comparison its not even funny
@lusty yarrow its a little challenging yeah but just find an aesthetic you like. I used fencing to measure tiles
terraforming this library into a cliff is turning out to be a B****
@fallen spoke hey night this is what I did. Sorry took me a while to not get distracted xD
EXCUSE ME HOW DID U DO THAT
@lusty yarrow u can do that
i can't even get my island to look 1/5 that good
i have been working on this damn island for 2-3 weeks and my right side is STILL not developed zzz
Wow
@primal wyvern lemme see them rivers
@primal wyvern thats really neat!!
@open arch you got this. I believe in you.
do you like it so far? i need some reassurance
that heart was NOT supposed to look like a face but here we are lmao
@lusty yarrow they’re not the best but I’m getting there!
ugh the moment when your double waterfall is blocking something behind it so then you have to get rid of it
Everything just kinda feels cramped with two rivers on the southern end you know what I mean?
@lusty yarrow 100% but when I closed them up it looked weird cause they are the only two connections from sea to river 😭
I dig the heart theme but all I can say for advice for everyone here is take your time building your layout.
The more you rush it the more often you'll burn out and end up unsatisfied not because of how it came out but because you went from point one place to the other without enjoying the sights or maybe accidental thing you built by playing around with it.
@lusty yarrow round them out? but still, the symmetry is very nice
I don't think my layout will ever be "done" lol
how much does it cost to terraform ur island?
It took me 4 mil
I don’t know what to do around my resident services building, can people share a pic of theirs
it's like 12k nook miles for landscaping and waterforming
can someone show me some more pics of museum layouts. idk what to do haha
tryna figure out how much i have to earn lol
@hexed thicket Nook Miles to get the water scape and cliff scape permits. I think it was 12k miles for both? Idr. Paths are 2k each except custom psths 2300
@wise slate someone put a video yesterday that just made me feel bad about myself xD
okayokay im only going to limit myself to one more ice cream stall
Anyone have any good ideas for a short entrance? i.e. I walk like 5 steps from airport and I’m in town square
Idk how do people do transitioning for their flooring in terraform. Someone ples help
Not the most elaborate layout but works for me rn @tulip ridge
@balmy pivot most people do either hills on both sides with waterfall or build a custom gate. Heres mine as an example.
i feel weird for trying to stick with my orig layout lol
@hexed thicket don’t! I wish I could too 😭 all this change is too much for me and the rivers will never look so natural
I dont have the patience to redo my whole island but i really want to..
Sticking to your original layout can be awesome and hella original imo!
dm me if i can look around your island for ideas!
You can always be creative with it and find ways to make it look great
guys how many flowers you need for 3 star ranking
2838382828282
i have like 103 i think
WAYYYY too many flowers lol but they need to be different!!!
YOU NEED 2309230948203948329048302948329048239828408 TRILLION according to isabelle
variety
THEY DO?
YESSIR
Does anyone have any tips on ways to get to a 3 star rating ? I’m not liking my island , so advice would be appreciated :’>
--------------------------------.......................-----------------------------
i didnt have that many on my island when i got 3 stars i only had one garden
plant a shit load of flowers
@covert mica talk to isabelle
okay but like an estimate?
the thing is that i had almost every kind of flower by the time i got 3 stars
plant lots of varietys of flowers and varietys of trees! ESPECIALLY BAMBOO!!!
she'll tell you what to do
okay but like an estimate?
@slow creek 103
just make an orchard and you'll get to it lmao
fences help too
I built gardens, fence them in with a variety of flowers and use items. I built one around the teacup ride (black & red) and made a sort of queen of hearts garden
oh well i just planted 35 coconut trees so
my guy got some nuts
plant alot of bamboo and lay out your furniture everywhere. ask isabelle and keep doing what she says
LOL
i think 90 fruit trees total will be enough B)
I'm think of putting all of the shops and the museum on a cliff with an incline
someone is promoting vitaCOCO
coco from drag race i hate her
Ok last time asking sorry, I wanna use water or cliffs in some way for my entrance but I don’t know how because my town hall is close
wait can we move the town hall
No
put it around the entrance
no
goddamn
@balmy pivot this is my gate from 2 different angles for example.
My hubs has his the same just to the right and he made an outdoor museum as his entrance! He used cliffs to stack fossils and added some waterfalls
I’ll see if I can get pictures from him bc it’s really cool
thats a lot of terraforming yaaaarrrr
I've removed basically all my water and have just 2 heart lakes ;-;
this is honestly taking way too long and idk if i like it AGHH
those 2d pokemon map can give you inspiration >:D
I made a canal for mine that just goes around the island and then a heart lake lol. I really limited my water bc I wanted to focus on filling my island with pretty spaces
wait how big are yalls flower gardens
there is a bridge going over a very small patch of water bc I didn't want to demolish it bc i was poor
lol im the opposite i keep adding water everywhere
ive got rid of every single river LOL
Don't give uppppp. Go hard to do it @chrome mango
waiitt the old pokemon maps r actually such a good idea
up side is I don't have to carry a vaulting pole
This is my entry/boardwalk btw. I’ve redone it about 4 times but it’s my favorite space on my island.
i saw someone earlier who did it kinda based off of sootopolis city and it was beautiful
Oh wow! . I love it @rocky radish
Oo. I like the custom stone brick paths and symmetrical residential area you got going there @tranquil tulip
im doing it based on japans culture! @tagbackTV gives so much inspo on his videos
anyone just keeping their museum ground level
@rocky radish thank you!! I really wanted that neighborhood to feel like it was part of the town. I have more houses in the back where I’m making a fairy forest
Does anyone have a meteor shower night
my island is pouring lol
Ty @balmy pivot. You can make some funky entrances with fencing if you connect 4 tiles and keep it in lines. Thats how I got those weird brick spots to stick
@tranquil tulip THATS IS SUCH A GOOD IDEA STOPPPPP UGHHH I WISH
Really
@chrome mango I’ve got to get back to my patients but I can help with yours when I’m off tomorrow if you want! Just dm me 🥰
@tranquil tulip I have a similar walkway but it isn't my entrance. Its to the east where I have a bamboo shrine to Oarfish God and Zen graveyard.
I love that!
does anyone have anything creepy for like a fortune telling booth! i already have the ball! i will trade im just working so hard on this part hahaha
I'm doing a layered house where multiple houses are on 1 layer then it goes up
Hi all, which fence layout do you like best
ROPE FENCEEEEE
@silent arrow cute but watch out because i did that and now i cant use a stairway to get to my house
I'm gonna cry I can't get my cliffs to terraform how I want them to 😢
??
oh you mean layout lol
My house is on bottom layer
i meant for other houses i thought you were stacking houses loo
Yeah
what items would yall use in a wild foresty theme besides the mush series? i'm keeping some stumps and using the country fence and hyacinth lamps when i grow more purples
@woven drift this is from like 20 minutes ago but can i also have the codes for the museum signs lol
i'll dm u them XD
@tranquil tulip fuck now I gotta redo my whole island
@scenic blaze I like the various log furniture, plus stuff like rocking chairs customized for a dark color
@finite cargo2 don't give up. Its a pain when the cliffs are uneven to the shore or yiu have to destroy a 20x20 area and redoit but you got this 
I LITERALLY CANT FIND ANY OF THE MUSHROOM THINGS!!! and i would plant daisys and cottages!! @scenic blaze
@scenic blaze a lot of flower patterns and a wishing well, maybe an outdoor bath if you're feeling it, and a picnic area/stargazing spot
**this channel's vibe is so negative😆 **
@chrome mango if youre in the northern hemisphere then the mushroom event will begin in november
:(((
mushroom???
autumn themed diy recipes
i didnt mean to be negetive if it seemed that way lolol
@finite cargo2 don't give up. Its a pain when the cliffs are uneven to the shore or yiu have to destroy a 20x20 area and redoit but you got this :villagerfightpunch:
@rocky radish I'm such a perfectionist. This is gonna be painful. Thank you!!
thanks for all the ideas guys!! i'm definitely gonna toss a well in there and log furniture. my wild log bench DIY will go great
heres more example
i can't WAIT for the mush series but i'm northern hem so it'll be a while for me lol
potato your little yards are all so cute!
this how it looks
the mushroom aesthetic is my favorite thing in the world too bad im in the northern hemisphere lol
it will go further back
people may rip you off at #furniture-trade but thats how i got my mushroom
bulby i have a two layer residential area too and it looks really nice
just time travel....heh
3 layer?
this is mine rn: https://twitter.com/sedumisland/status/1251605634421673984
I'm still tweaking decor, but I wanted to give a tour of my cozy and personalized residential area :) #AnimalCrossing #ACNH #NintendoSwitch https://t.co/hkU24fTwrS
or time travel lol
does 3 layer sound good
3 layer does i just wanted to save my inclines lol
I wish you could craft inclines and bridges like the first bridge
i followed you @scenic blaze ❤️🤲🏻🥺
that would be a pain
But i'm poor af
i wish the inclines/bridges was a combined 16 instead of a max of 8 each. i would for sure use 16 inclines and no bridges lmao
thank you @ hanna!!! ❤️
same mothra lmao
im running out of ideas for how to improve my island lmao
kinda wish the cap was 10 instead of 8
theres a limit?
BUY TURNIPS AND get on discord they buy for 500 a piece! thats how i became a millionare yesterday! @silent arrow
it's a cap of 8 bridges and 8 inclines
They will prolly increase cap eventually
kk
Everyone hates the idea of new stores but im kind of living for it
Same with danger hieight. Cant go up higher then the two stories
I can't do much with my hous outside e lmao. Heres mine but its surrounded in a mote. Still working on blue marble path texture.
@rocky radish your mind.. 🤯🤯🤯
Omg you all have such great designs. does anyone that enjoys designing islands want to help me design my island pls? I’d really appreciate the help (:
i like the duck cult
not epic the incline isnt centered with the door
my shopping area is 3 levels. i don't have a video of that one yet bc it's a work in progress with decor still
@rough tendon there are so many people on insta that will honestly inspire you sm! Thats what got me thinking about my layout!!
3 levels
@viscid otter diagonal terraformings my weakness. Gj getting the rivers to make that mote area
hmm
fax
And ty for the kind words guys. I also like a lot of your designs and want to get ideas by looking at what you all come up with
Im trying to get my ugly villagers to mooooveee.. i want gloria SOOOO bad
you recommend 3 level shopping area but I already put able sisters on the back cliff 🙁
not so secret lol
Let them live
i just started recently and i regret the placement of where i put certain things. it’s stressing me out lmao
hoping i can fix it later 😭
It's okay, you only have to pay 50,000 bells each
was that supposed to be sarcastic
yes
yes
XD 50k is not alot
You can move everything but river mouths, private beach, the plaza, and the sticking out piece of land I’m pretty sure, oh and the airport
And the dock
If bells are a problem for you, you need to invest more in turnips
YOU HAVE 6 ROBOTS LMAOOO
I just got turnips
https://twitter.com/sireena90575767/status/1252023907147644928?s=21 anyone know what i should do with this space? im thinking of maybe a secret forest or a large lake but idkkk
This game shouldn't be all about bells but w/e
put the m in a circle
No 8 total @chrome mango all colors
put them beside your house on each side
do turnips sell for a lot?
I dont think it fit xD
@magic tartan if you go to the nooklingsturnips section on here then youll see people letting you come to their island, where their nooklings are buying turnips for high prices and you can sell there!
but you havw to trade with them
thanks!
@magic tartan yes buy for cheap and find a friend or someone who has nook shop selling 300 plus . Bought mine today for 100. Then sell for more somewhere else
dood, aime for like 500+ lmfao
turnip selling is the fastest way to get money
yesterday i had someone that just wanted 1nmt and let me come and go as many times as i wanted for free and i got 6mil LOL
mhm, it's rlly efficent, especially when u time travel
Oh cool, thank you. I’m still trying to get the hang of everything lol. There’s so much to this game that i didn’t know about
lmao ikr
i has mine 600+ last week
Like dude, i wouldn't give ya 1nmt for 382 XD
yes dont go to people who r gonna rip you off i would go to someone that has in the 400-600 range for like 10k bc youre gonna get 1 mil anyway so 10k is nothing
would it best to have the same bridges throughout my island or vary the bridge type
depends on what theme youre going for. everyone is different
Honestly depends on what theme ur going for
what are you guys doing? im not sure what i want my theme
Same kind @olive gust just my opinion though looks weird switch it up
mine is japan based so im just using one bridge rn
my theme is a normal neighbourhood town-ish thing so I use brick inclines and bridges
but I have a few stone and one zen
im kinda going for a gravity falls/natural vibe so im thinking of using the suspension bridge? but im in love with the red zen bridge
If youre going gracity falls i would do multiple types of bridges!!
that's what im thinking too!! it'd be fun to switch it up
yesbb
@olive gust There was a nice natural island that I liked I’m not sure if you’ve seen it
probably haven't, send it my way haha!!
How have people whose town halls don’t line up with their airports make a path between the two? My airport is in f2 and town hall is in d3...
townhall is not straight
Mine has good entry way dont need res lined up. @thin tartan
i still use the default river paths
anyone have ideas for spooky theme? like fence/path combos etc...
thank you!! i saw that and it was so beautiful!!
my town hall is so far right and it’s extremely annoying lol
@bleak ore oo
How have people whose town halls don’t line up with their airports make a path between the two? My airport is in f2 and town hall is in d3...
@thin tartan Just f6
im going insane with custom designs
i wish you can make a smooth diagonal path
@chrome mango 😆
@thin tartan I have a little mini slant to the left to make it get back on track but it’s still bugging me
https://twitter.com/sireena90575767/status/1252023907147644928?s=21 anyone know what i should do with this space? im thinking of maybe a secret forest or a large lake but idkkk
id like some feedback please and thank u
@bleak ore I wish you could put stuff/climb 4th level cliffs
Any double south river maps I can see?
dang would put gojira all the way on top
@vast crystal I think you should make it a secret forest and add some picnic areas to it, maybe make it look rustic. hidden picnic area type of this?
ooo ya
@mortal ocean I posted mine earlier and don't want to double post but I can send them to you if you want
@woven drifta sacrifice is needed 
im thinking of making a forest that leads to a fortune telling stall on the beach
Anyone have inspo for fencing in villager yards? Are other people doing that to make them a little yard with furniture? I would like to see what people have done.
Hey guys I did some changes to the entrance, does this look a little better? Still need to fill in all the paths and flowers. I just cant seem to figure out how to fix the symetrical view :/
@vast crystal not sure what kind of island theme you're going for, but you can't go wrong with the hidden forest! it would be really cool to have some sort of campfire with log seats around it hidden in some trees or sth idk lol
I made some big flower gardens
@candid onyx my theme is a natural forest!!
Cookie 
@vast crystal i like that! if u want flowers incorporated maybe try adding black roses to make it look mysterious too
@thin tartan here’s my entrance. Far from done but just wanted to tell u that u don’t really have to line things up. yes there’s a lot of trees ty
oooo
Mine is very similar to that entrance too! I’m very stuck right now and don’t know what to do. I need advice
I terraformed a lot and now I’m kinda regretting it
Should I run dirt paths under the flowers to give a little more detail?
Yes!! I would!
I’d give it a try, the darker color dirt might make it pop
lmao i have merengue too
i have a random question, once you put a design on a signpost, can you replace that design in your custom design app? Or will it change that sign when you overwrite the design in your app?
I’m considering restarting my whole darn game but I’m in too deep with all that I got, items and house wise
How do you make your outside house look like that? I assume you need all the upgrades?
@hidden kindle it changes for me when I want to overwrite with paths and it’s so frustrating cause I still want the old one and now I have no space
oh no 😦
I'm kicing Cheri and Mac out
i know the paths overwrite, i was hopoing the signs wouldnt
not sure about the signs
@woven drift that goes in #happy-home-designs i think
they didnt give enough space to hold designs
Sorry lol
I hope they expand it later on
so how do you terraform a double waterfall like to the right?
What is considered the nicest fence in the game
Zen
Depends on what you like I guess
Simple wooden
Hmmm
i'm not sure about signs but i think they would overwrite, i customized a stall and then tried to change the background color and it automatically updated the stall
Zen, lattice and that double board are very popular though
am I the only one that dislikes the zen fence 😰
EXCUSE MEEEE
Not a huge fan of it either
Imperial looks good in my entrance
country is super popular
:ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
Only problem is, it’s a color
it just looks big and wonky idk
Idk about you but straw fences are where it's at
Blacks and white fences go with anything
I wish we could change the color of the fences
you could also use log stakes and color them to use as a colored fence
Me too
I don't get why we can't customize them.
i really like the log stakes, i wish they counted as "fencing" instead of an item though
I really like the rope fences personally
same, I made like 2 or 3 stacks thinking it would be cool but it looks off in my island so now they just sit there in my storage
i used a bunch of lattice fencing in my residential area and now i regret it bc they're too tall and the color is off 😦 but to fix it i'll have to move the houses again and i am not emotionally prepared to do that
it hurts even more bc this won't even be a new layout lollll i just can't fix the fences that are in a one-tile gap between houses
oof
i wish we could rotate them! that would solve all my problems
Does this look any good?
Kinda feel like it’s empty or needs more, but thank you
I'm no expert but try taking out the fence in the front to make it more open
remove the pathing on the right and plant flowers there instead? should fill it up a bit 🙂
you can also place items right under the window
Maybe try to customise the stall?
o tru
is there a known tree limit?
Possibly put something different in the stall that makes more sense to the theme of the able sisters
tree limit is like 200-220 something like that
maybe add some clothes on display?
o
wait there’s a tree limit?
Yea, clothes on display would look nice
Good idea
https://pbs.twimg.com/media/EWAcoC2UMAAEQlg?format=jpg&name=large progress. may miove the able shop and museum idk what to do with
@shell garden add a streetlight
you can plant more after that, but isabelle will complain
planing to take over this prison
Also @scenic blaze what does your resident area look like? I have alot of lattice fencing and I’d like too see some inspo if you dont mind
too many trees will bump your rating down
@queen nexus looks great
Gorgeous area!
i like the custom path
things have to get worse before they get better right? bc I think I just made my island UGLIER by terraforming
@indigo sierra i've posted it a couple times today so apologies to the ppl who have already seen this video lol but here's my res area https://twitter.com/sedumisland/status/1251605634421673984
I'm still tweaking decor, but I wanted to give a tour of my cozy and personalized residential area :) #AnimalCrossing #ACNH #NintendoSwitch https://t.co/hkU24fTwrS
Thank you!
my map looks messed up now since i put custom paths over my original ones lol
yeah for sure. islands start coming together for me through pathing
hdgdhdh can i get some critque and help
does the place behind ables and nooks and the corner with the incline look awk
I only have one incline to spare i think
I LOVE ROPE FENCE
@quartz jungle wow, can i get some more pictures of that island?
Wow! @scenic blaze what tile size did you use for each house? As in their little gardens ^^ its super cute!
Named my island after the 90s PC point-and-click adventure game, "MYST".
Kirkwood thats amazing
yo thats sick
@quartz jungle it's a lil awk but just fill it with trees and flowers and it'll be part of the scenery and you'll never have to look at it again
I love your graveyard lmao
There was a blood stain there earlier. o_O
ty breakfastkid 🙂 i placed the fencing before moving the houses and each fence was 6x6
@primal wyvern if you need help with ideas dm me! There’s SO many things I wish I could do but my island only has so much space lol
@craggy oasis uhh yea ill take a vid
the only place that’s kinda finished is the place around my house tho
And it’s just a forest with a few mushrooms lol
can i see your coffee shops/cafes for inspiration?
@craggy oasis actually you can visit later if youd like
i just posted mine on top for the cafe
sorry im back guys!
Any of yall got a good size for villager house gardens? Tryna make my own resident area
sent you a dm @quartz jungle . am really interested since i wanna go for that single-river foresty vibe, but got no inspiration atm
@scenic blaze do you have any ideas on moving the incline or cliff to make it flow better?
I was thinking on either making it natural or a marketplace
I have the thin cliff above that part planned to be a dig site so i didnt want to enlarge that spot but mayb i should and get rid if the valley?
So smart!!!!! I wish my reaident area was in the back because i honestly hate it
Mine isn't. I just put the cliffs there. It's actually kinda close to the airport
mine is 9 squares in front of the airport 😦
Mine is on the left side of my island and i wish it was just directly in front of the airport path
@quartz jungle i'm having a hard time finding the incline you mention, sorry! the feedback i gave was for the 2nd level strip right behind nooks and ables, which seems too small to be what you're talking about?
Does anyone have inspo for garden i have like 0 ideas aside from just dumping them on the ground
putting them on a dirt path is pretty
I looove those stalls 😮
ikrrrrr
Especially for all the boba
@scenic blaze ohhh that part
i meant the valley behind that spot and the path going straight from my airport
I was gonna make that into somth natural yea lol
If i had more inclines id make a 2nd story area for them >:(
They need to include those in the game
Do yall think we will get more incline spots in the future lol
doubt it
WHAT HAVE I DONE!!! This terraforming idea that I had was trash and now my island is trash too
@finite cargo can u unsave
@woven drift for your pink coffee/drink stand, could u possibly share the codes with me for the stand and menu?
i lOsT aLl oF tHeM
Thaaank you!! @heavy rune that's a smart idea
i'm sorry
okay
I got the pink ones a while back so i don't remember
Np!!
ah i see
@finite cargo do you need some help? wanna upload pics?
What stair case goes well with wood?
lol

you guys are so creative with the use of cliff/river editor 😭 my world is just........ s u p e r f l a t
^^^big fat mood
😔 oh well
Yeah my cliffs are not very natural. I'm also worried that eventually I won't be able to do cliff-top fishing because there's none
I'd start by doing a small area then move on from there.
Sorry to interrupt, but how close can homes be to each other?
I think people get overwhelmed by trying to do their whole island in one go.
What staircase do think goes best with wood flooring (i'm trying to build a restaurant on a clifftop)
trying making a lot of curves
That's what I've been doing anyways. Going from small area to other small areas. I still have like 70% of my island to even start on.
@heavy rune one block in between
@true gazelle I did wood staircases with my wood flooring
Terraforming is hard 
@marble portal This is what I'm doing with my garden area
@heavy rune do you have the code for the brick stones ish on the floor🤓
which brick?
My current goal is is just to make an area for the shops + my house + garden to show off my mix flowers
i have a huge garden if y’all wanna see
What are y’alls maps look like? I need inspo
@azure frigate
I mean the rectangular stones @heavy rune
yea. Give me a second to find it. I have everything I've used either reblogged on tumblr or favorited. xD
By any chance, do you also have the code for like the “raised wooden platform” look? Hahaha
I’ve found it before but can’t find it
Maaaybe. Let me see.
@lunar mesa do a spa!
is there a specific time at night I can catch wishing stars or meteor things? like is it everyday or by luck
@dapper ginkgo luck
maybe up by the bamboo! @chrome mango
Which one looks better?
Yess!! Thats where my zen soa area is! With my bamboo!!
I don’t have much but...
@steel scaffold gold
@chrome mango alright thanks
Thank you @bleak ore
my zen area
CUTEEEE
bruh i need nintendo to allow for more custom designs saved with the amount that i want to use
RIGHTTT
just my paths/floors take up almost every slot
My garden area uwu
nighttime bamboo path
one of the first areas on my island i was really proud of, now i think my garden is my favorite spot
@tired verge omg i love that path
I wish I had a super cute island like y’all. I got a bug zone and that’s about it
👀 what do you do with all those bugs? lol
thanks 😄
use them as tables
LMAOOAOAO
because of the massive lack of table recipes 😭
I’m waiting for flick lol
💀
you're gonna make flick the happiest lizard alive haha
Don’t trust that whole turnip stock market thing, much too fancy for me
accurate
I’m just here with my bugs, in a good honest man lol
the truth is hard to swallow
i have a ton of friends who play so we all gamble, hoping someone has a good price through the week lol
I shoved my bugs to the corner of my island 😂
The walk to flick when he does come is a pain in the butt. Especially if he moves around
ngl hosting turnip sales is much better than actually buying and selling turnips yourself
^
its so annoying hosting them tho so i just go to them LOL
what item is used to make the shop front
even if i use the turnip exchange site people forget to leave the queue when they leave the island so it holds up the whole line
you have to have the recipe willy
I unlocked terraforming already and have built several cliffs already but always end up taking them down
People use the queue for all sorts, tours and shop visits
i earned 36 million bells from hosting lol
whats the recipes called
The stall?
i dont do the que i do people who arent that busy bc im IMPATIENT
I believe you get that in one of the nookling store recipe packs.
wait wdym the store front
I really want a cute island but idk where to even start? Should I clear all my trees and move the houses to a far away place so I have a clear layout? Idk how to even plan and it gives me anxiety thinking about it
DONT CLEAR YOUR TREES
if you do its going to be so hard to get three stars because i did that and its awul, just wait until you get three stars to make it cute
clear your trees after!!!
@mossy steppe same with me xD
yes!^
Trying to make our island to this ( we are gonna try to kick out every villager lol )
how do you get your friend to move in wuth uou omg
LOL
I just cleared trees so I could terraform without obstructions- I replanted them after though and mvoed the houses to the beach too o-o
I literally dont know how
You have to make another account on the same switch
Friends from other switches can’t move to your island
But like my brother and I share a island cuz we share a switch.
same here

man i love the blue incline but nothing matches it
If you have 2 accounts on the same switch you can both place houses on your island
Trying to beautify it......pain in my butt lol
Looks really cool!
What did people do with their secret beaches?
Yeah lol
for the hidden beach, im waiting for the halloween update to put spooky things back there
mine is all covered up by cliffs aha @vague delta
@eager plaza thats how mine currently is! Hahah.
I kinda want it to be accessible from my house but its on a cliff
That’s a mood
I personally am going for a beach sailor aesthetic with some pnw touches up on my hills
That’s really cute, so is my gf
I think I’ll go with the mystical forest/swamp aesthetic but it’s hard and overwhelming lol
It is. But baby steps! Small goals
Right now my brother is making me terraform everything lol
Does anyone know which portion of the map is viewable from the plane? Like which coordinate squares on the map. Trying to design something based on what people can see when they fly in!
In just so overwhelmed, I just wanna be cute lol
i have a classic town vibe with space exhibit and landmark exhibit
That looks sick!
That’s really cool
Do any of your island names have any particular meaning?
@noble tiger on my map if u look at the pic i sent the plane starts at the museum and diagonally goes to airport
my island name is pantasia and my cats name is pants
Aww that’s cute!
@noble tiger on my map if u look at the pic i sent the plane starts at the museum and diagonally goes to airport
@pale cipher thank you!!
Mine is luis from luisville
I named my island smok. Polish for dragon. I have a bearded dragon.
awww
My town follows the classic formula and doesnt redefine the scenery in case of proportions much
How are you guys planning for future shop possibilities in your town?
i’ll do island tours if anyone needs inspiration!! i just ask you dont take run on/pick flowers and fruit
wait there is gonna be more shops?
How are you guys planning for future shop possibilities in your town?
@woven drift
What u mean??
theres rumors of another shop being added
Like the possibility of any kind of other shops that may be added in the future.
Ooo
such as leifs garden shop
or tavern
@woven drift i made space on able sisters area as well as on the main boulevard
also i can chuck it near my water feature area
but i prefer all buildings on lvl 1
Nice! I'm trying to plan all of my buildings to be like build into cliffs, so I think I am going to leave 1-2 extra cliff faces just in case.
did anybody use the map maker to design their map? i am frustrated with it because its inaccurate
but tbh most new buildings will be intergrated to able sisters or nooklings or mueseum
thats what we know of
When I realized it was inaccurate I didn’t use it.
i hope they do add shops, new leaf had so many
and thats why stage 3 and 4 nook shops are update locked
@olive gust I used it. I just used it as a basic plan rather than as an "accurate" designer.
i did mine in game without map maker
@woven drift yeah thats what im doing, but ive just been adjusting a lot
coz i had a good freeflow design anyway
I also reset to flat though so that I didn't get frustrated with editing from the current design.
Im not sure how I’m going to start changing things
I don’t really like the design of the map
But I’m not sure how to start
I really advocate flattening/filling rivers if you are serious about changing your map design. It makes it so much easier to imagine what you want instead of basing your ideas off of the current layout.
too many trees? haven't heard of that wow
someone here said 200-220 like 10 minutes ago
Here something
heres my hopeful before and after, nervous my “after” map is too plain... looking for inspo
ooo i like the organization lol
i wish ac would treat custom paths like regular paths.....and less like a custom design just being placed on the ground.........
😔 i hate accidentally erasing it when i go to pick up items HHHH
ikrrr
I guess I’ll clear all my trees and fill in the rivers to start with a blank slate
i would suggest doing it one portion at a time
Yeah I just got my shit today... I’m leveling everything, but I’m kinda scared
ye the one at a time advice is soo good
like clear one portion,fix it, and then go and clear the next section and then fix it, and so on
i found it easier to get rid of the river and the 3rd layer
i started with the museum then i went to my entrance and then i thought oo a heart pond and now its all connecting
If anyone needs inspiration or design ideas youre more than welcome to an island tour!! :3 just please dont pick flower/shake trees
Today I’m starting to build up my second layer
that's what i did with mine and it makes it sooooo much easier than doing it all at once
Gets tedious
nice
keep the second layer and plan, its easy getting rid of things but its a PAIN to build it back
super tedious omg when u break it and then build it again only to break it
;-;
and ughh T_T making water things when u meant to destroy
when I made my design, I realized I would've regret getting rid of the second layer because id have to rebuild it
if only they made the building and breaking buttons just.....different buttons......im begging u nintendo
and also 8 stair limit i dont want to make too many hills ... :(
i think so?
I guess I'm gonna chop trees and check every time I cut one down OTL this is why I think it doesn't matter if your island is 5* or not, I've seen really bad 5* islands imho
thats what i heard ?
Big oof
to get a 5 island all you have to do is place a ton of items
yep 8 bridges, 8 inclines limit
Literally because people just threw random stuff around to get 5*
^
yeah star rating means literally nothing. Game doesn't know what's aesthetically pleasing and what isn't
I mean I’m kinda glad they have a limit but at the same time I bet that messes up other people’s designs.
im gonna be serious i had 2* at one point even though my island was all decked out and super cool......but then i planted a few flowers and it went to 4* immediately lmfao
I WANT my villagers to be lost dammit
5 star doesnt matter honestly .. like the flowers and a golden watering can whatever
yea
Yeah I don't really care too much now bc I have the watering can
As long as I can get kk from time to time I’m good lol
if you have the bells, its easy to redo ur island if u move every house to the beach
i guess it does for people who want the golden flowers
i have a super dense city its not like theres going to be any space for lily of the valley to spawn anyway
so oh well
What themes for your guys islands are you doing? It’s neat to see what our people are thinking of doing.
Forest/wilderness. It's a bear island.
im just doing random/natural
lots and lots of road
Lol awesome!
uhmm idk how to describe mines haha
I had an idea going in to the game but now I really don’t know what to do
not urban but developed hm?
suburban???
prolly
🤔
mine is natural/witchy on the outskirts of a lil village
All my towns in new leaf end up to be forest towns and I think that’s what I’m doing
TT yeah i named my island luna isle for a celestial theme but ah whatever :(
That’s still a cool name!
I named my island Lightcoast for a sunnier theme but I don’t think that’s gonna happen
ty im just a pastel pink girl TT i can do a dark theme
Hey guys there's four people playing on my island, plus villagers we need. Do you think it'll be even harder to make it look nice with so many buildings?
as long as its fun ! who cares abt the original idea heh
yep!
Is Nook's Cranny 6x4 or 7x4?
my island has a meme name................ .
It all depends on how you build it I guess @plush mirage
it's 7x4, the others are in the pinned comments for this channel if you ever need em
Alrightie
ok great thanks guys. I had the screenshot of the dimensions but my phones charging lol
lol np
how can i make my ugly crafting area better? 😭
the upgraded shop looks like its 6 across not 7. Like it's too... symmetrical lol weird how the little rope fence around the dinky little shop makes it seem like it takes up more room
use different tables
switch to terracotta path! would look nice with the whites and the fence
I think adding some more variety in the way you're displaying stuff would help. Like changing up the types of tables and the layout instead of just rows
thank you sm for the tips! ☺️
i really like organization so my intended layout is kinda boring and idk how to “spice it up”... open to suggestions
Add more lakes and rivers? Maybe add a couple more hills?
ooh yeah like fun lake shapes
where's your other river outlet?
yea! just because your residential/building layout is super organized doesn't mean that your lakes have to be either
omg its so cute
It do b looking funky
:v
Tree removal service. I chop you keep the products. DM for prices.
I don't think u do that here
this isn't the channel i think
I like your heart pond! 👍🏼👍🏼
TIL there are animal crossing landscapers
Idk what to do with all this extra space now
ty imma take my bf on a date hehe
AND IIIII WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU (sorry im high on depression)
Your heart pond is so much cuter than mine omg!!!
aw ty :0 it was hard OMG cus terraforming is HARD
Dang that’s organized
it looks rlly good
I did mine sort of sideways and it’s part of my fairy forest
Do you have to pay to terraform?
i like ur flowy rivers
Tyy
pay.. to unlock the cliff and water its 6k each
and then pays r 2k each nook mile points..*
i would love to post my map here but almost all of the paths are custom so it looks super basic from the map 😔
Big sad
@fresh zenith my fiancé had me come over for a date and he proposed to me (again) in the game! It was super cute and cheesy
tg the terraform tools don't have durability i would be SOL
@tranquil tulip
bro thats SO cute wtf im.. im also gonna propose to my bf :00 i made a little wedding aisle area
cries in single
we're still young tho so its not serious but like heh
cries in single
@candid onyx
Welcome to the club buddy ;-;
YES PLUCKY ASKED TO MOVE
@fresh zenith awe still cute!! It was to help with my stress ab our wedding bc were gonna be postponing it ooooor maybe eloping once the pandemic chills
can someone come to my town and make it a three star willing to pay bells
fr ugh :( everyone's plans this yr is a rip
how can you make someone's island 3 stars bc u cant place stuff right?
does anyone have a triple waterfall entrance? is that too ambitious
EXCUSE ME HOW. IS. THAT. EVEN. POSSIBLE
Time travel
THAT'S SO GOOD @woven drift
Bro
@tulip tinsel I didnt TT
That is beautiful!
That’s insane
:3 thnx cuties
@woven drift oh, was that just taken before cherry blossoms went out of season?
Makes more sense lmao
hi guys, any advise for my island :(( I've been destroying and rebuilding for a week lol... im trying to make it Japan style
It do be lookin bomb doe
that looks good enough
Was I the only one who became slightly annoyed of them flying around everywhere?
Lolol
But the hardest part was/ breeding the hybrids
@queen nexus this is my museum. It’s not an entrance but it could be doable! This has 4 waterfalls, the last one is set up the same on the right as it is the left. You could just do a small bridge and then have them go down the back as well. I think it’d be pretty with shops on the side maybe or a little forest and garden sitting area
Unless you’re thinking of like waterfalls going the other way idk
that's wayyyy too many waterfalls for me XD
Noice
they make me anxious, idk why
If anyone wana visit lmk but its not finished yet like 2% of my island is done.
hOw
Not more lol
i just unlocked terraforming and i can’t decide what i want to do with my island
like child, ur two percent is better than my whole island lmfao
Dude same tho
moooooooooood
@ebon pewter u should pick a theme, japanese, retro, modern, magical idk
It be looking 💣
they should rename this the hype chat xD
XD
i keep seeing such nice islands and idk what i want hahaha
I gotta remind myself that Rome wasn't built in a day, so my island can't be either.
**you know, im kinda liking my island bc of all the custom designs
i moved my shop and able sisters and i already don’t like it lmao
Woah
I added lanterns to the cliffs and I love it
That’s sick
I love the flag! Cute 💖
that's so rad
They look amazing
Question, how long does it take for the nook cranny to wanna upgrade?
20-30 days fam
Question, how long does it take for the nook cranny to wanna upgrade?
@dusky hinge
I want mine to upgrade soo bad
Ty
@dusky hinge the datamine shows 30+ days plus 200k spent
or if you're a time skipper...........👀
Thank you!!
Lolol
MEEEE I AM!
nope.
nope!
ik it sucks
Big sad boi hours
😔
What three.
id recommend not building a 4th layer in case u pop a balloon over it
you can do a fourth layer of land but its not really worth it
Thats too high tho
i havent seen any cool designs yet with the fourth
they do be telling u its dangerous
^
the fourth would be cooler if you could shove some flowers up there
fr
the fact that it just sits there empty really turns me off from using it
Omg I was literally 5 trees over the "limit" wtf
of what?
How dare they limit the tress! #teamtrees 🤣
The too many trees things that docks your rating back to 4
damnnnn
dang....
That's stupid
I planted maybe 20-30 trees today with some being hardwood swapped for cedar
that's so sad
And then TT to make them grow cause I can't play much this week ._.
:c
aW
byebye trees ig...
i cant TT atm turnip gang
i timetravelled while my sister had turnips and i didnt know
lmaoo
oof...
bruh....
I need some help with my town layout. It’s so boring I really don’t know what to do with it. Considered restarting but I don’t want to. Any suggestions or tips?
:'')
i want a forest theme for my island so the trees is gonna rly hurt when i get closer to island completion
I’d consider adding more rivers and lakes and different variety of height @woven drift
Photos after the madness... campsite properly in the bush now + entrance
omg that's beautiful
Orangeeee
Where are the orange trees
I like it tho
Photos after the madness... campsite properly in the bush now + entrance
@patent sky it looks great!
what should stuff should i place in the middle? or should i just change it completely x_x
change it completely
