well, i tend to get a bit competitive and when i see other people's amazing islands, i have a mental breakdown
I don’t care about any of that stuff I just want cute pink flowers
Guess who's finally almost kind of figuring out a halfway decent layout for their town
And cute clothes
Also don't compare yourself, some people think my island looks like shit but it makes me happy so I don't care
felt that
im not competitive but bruh i just wnt a pretty island
^
^
Make it pretty to your liking
and also don't give no fucks if ppl hate on u cause "another japanaese island"
my island isn’t cute and when i see what other people do with theirs i feel like shit bc i can’t muster up any creativity
I dunno what I want mine to look like yet, but def leaning towards cutesy forest rn
samee

wow we’re all in our feelings
Any comments on my island? The grey is potential areas for development (cafes and etc) and the brick coloured squares are fencing
are you paying the bells for my terraforming? no?
Wut
i like it!
who has an open island and wants me to pick their weeds?
i need em for my forest island
That's so true... i mean, its nintendo? Nintendo is a japanese company, so of course there's going to be a lot of japanese themed items etc /shrug
😄
i finished my island two days ago but i realised i hated the modern look and now im redoing it into a magical forest type island
Um so does anyone want to come over and give me advice 🥺 👉 👈
maybe make some player made cafes or something
@dusty sparrow i can come over
@outer moat
Sure thing <3
does anyone have a layout that has villager houses pressed up against a cliff
I love magical forest islands!! I think mine is going to have a modern-ish section, but the further you go the more forest-like it gets
I do lmao @charred jolt
magical forest islands r so pretty
I put their house right by the cliff cuz they need to get out my way
but like modern islands just arent for me ig
yea my island is like city/mountain chic
ADVICE PLS- dark, light or no dirt?
dark
Dark or no dirt
dark
dark with the pink and blue for sure
dark
i like dark atleast
@wary junco Yeah, I was hoping to lay out basic infrastructure so I can do w.e with the spaces afterwards
@sinful turtle I must see this formation
hope you guys are ready for the datamine stuff
yeah
whats datamine
General consensus is dark! Thank you!! Not really matching it with the flowers but just in general, THANK YOU!
anyone making a horror town?
I think vinh is
people deciphering code that repeats itself or code words written in game code
i don't even know what my town's theme is XDD
same
i just went with the flor
i want to have a mix of traditional japanese and kinda like a hidden city
so "another japanese island"
i tried a valley part of my city
sksksk
SKSKSKS hey sisters
its alot alot alot of space to really make it look good
so i said nah but i had a river running through this valley and a coupl,e houses in it
anyone have a cool path custom design?
wow ok lulubell, i lock up bad villagers and im the one with the horror town lol
I have a space i made as a yard but no idea what to put in it i had a pond which is why theres a square there any suggestions would be appreciated
noicee
I mean you have certain bloodstained garbage bags soooooo
fountain?
I think the pond would like nice ngl
Optimus Prime has blood all around it. Looks like he pounded villagers to a pulp.
@woven hill maybe like a small rest area with benches for villagers with a chess table or something
depends on the village theme
hey, does anyone wanna come over and help me with places haha
I'd love to come and look around!
well its in front of my house so i wanted it more private i have an area in front of services with a fountain and flowers around it and rope to have noone step on it lol
@silent arrow ty 🥺 i need help on what to do hahahah, ill dm you
has anyone done anythng with their private beach
oh yeah that'd work
my private beach has a shell bed and shell record player
to relax
I don't have a private beach...
you could make your private beach into like, a hidden treasure spot with an x and everything @autumn pivot
I should probs do that
hey i have that kind of beach
i was thinking rare flowers in my lawn but where to place them not sure yet just blacks blues and pinks
Can put a stone tablet/tombstone on it too, like a memorial place
why couldn't ac given us bigger pools lmao
um can you edit islands if you are a best friend
this pool could fit like 1-2 people....
dont think so
the x is pitfall trap lol
@silent arrow they cant terraform
your village is actually Alcatraz @heavy summit
does anyone wanna come over and give me tips for an entrance that is suitable for my far way res service?
pathing?
ohh i thought u meant like the secret beach
Out of all the terraforming sites which one do y’all think is the easiest to use?
thats a good idea even though it wasnt for me lol @naive patrol i can add the sand spaces and make a lil pirate space since my island is called one piece..
do fossils stop appearing after you've got all of em?
not sure if theres any pirate stuff in the game
i did mean the secret beach not a beach full of secrets
It only looks like that from the airport ); @autumn pivot
Can anyone point me in the right direction to a creator code with good city road designs? It would be much appreciated!
Yellow airport 👀
@woven hill you can get close
Ikr
IT LOOKS LIKE IT FROM EVERY POV @heavy summit
i got a green one
is the airport color random?
I'm so jealous of yellow airport
is yellow airport rare?
A yellow airport would match my island name and theme more
I just noticed I had a yellow airport
i think mine is blue maybe green
oop
my airports blue..
I got the yellow airport lowkey wanted blue 😂
I really wanted red TwT
i would of liked a red one
Can I terraform if my best friend is on the island?
No
No
no
post your dock size (the 2 steps dont count) 14 wood long
..............................
this conversation is a little askew
no
Everyones dock size is different, just means u can decorate more on it
i probably counted wrong tbh
Can I visit a good island for inspiration? 🙂
all i know is mine is so long
WOWOWOWOO that got deleted straight off the bat
Mines 12 I think
only certain fish spawn there
Villagers up top by the red line for aesthetics or down by the yellow for convenience and more room?
but dock size doesnt matter just a boasting
I’m having trouble deciding what to do with the area to the right of my current flower fields. Does anyone have ideas? The fact that it goes out into the beach is making it hard for me to decide since i don’t think it’s enough room to put houses
can i pay someone 1 mill bells to help make my island look good
@quasi geyser def on top
mustache man bun combo op gg
help please my island is so ugly
@edgy kayak since you cant terraform or drop stuff while someone is around its sort of tough
oh yea
after somehow getting mad at animal crossing again, took a break, now my bamboo garden is finished
Bigger dock= more space to decorate with furniture
how can you get mad at AC like you just whatever you want
My island went from a 4 star to a 2 star today lmao
Should I add waterfalls on the sides?
I get mad when someone tt and post seasonal spoilers
it’s more of frustration bc i can’t think of something or whatever i’m doing doesn’t look right
when i have days like that i just farm bells
anyone have the bottom mouth rivers? i need help deciding what to do with mine
I need cherries, pears
i have cherries and pears
i figured out what to do w my trees
Pears are my native
but limited on peaches rn
crapples were my native
oranges are mine.
oranges are mine
ugh, they gross.
it’s my non natives i haven’t sold
Anything is better than pears 
haven’t gotten around to it
I just want one bc planting
lmao i have oranges
crapples< pears
Pear 🍐 camos with the leaves
i wanted apples
my natives are oranges :/
Anyone who has the villagers houses up against the wall... do you still put fences around or no
Yes
none of my villagers have fencing
@spice rain
i have fences for the villagers homes behind it, but not for the shops
Can I see
Its right up the cliff with fences
ooooh, @versed wadi whats your entire layout like
guys you wanna trade some fruit
the shop is just up against the cliff
@heavy summit did you lose your eye when the villagers revolted?
What map planning site is the easiest to use?
That helps thanks
No it just looks threatening
And I’m planning to put my shop and tailors right next to each other... idk how much space I need
Ah. So like King Bradley from FMA
Eye patch can be used to make ur eye into night vision mode
BECUASE THE GIANT ISLAND PRISON ISNT THREATENING ENOUGH
thanks for the inspo @versed wadi
If one of ur eye is always in darkness, it can see in the dark better (think pirate ship inside the ships)
@heavy summit do you have the security monitor wallpaper yet? I got it from saharah today and thought of you haha
For isolating rock spawns, what's the most efficient way?
Yep
do you need the 3rd tier for anything?
Water tool everywhere?
tekken tag tourny going on there
Those are my highly trained guards
@vale nymph probably I don’t think they can spawn on stone paths and stuff either
@last pine i got rid of the third
Gotcha
Next month im doing WW2 trench warefare
some one has an obsessions with power
The map is default on 2nd level while i build trenches
5 villagers on left 5 on right, middle is no mans land
............................
I put my orchard and flower garden on the very top left corner so theme change wont mess with it
Anyone have ideas what I can do here? Looks a bit lacking 
Where do you guys get inspiration for island layouts?
U look at the list of avaliable furniture, and make a theme out of it
im playing it as it lies
Anyone going the more natural route? I hate terraforming
I find it really hard to tie elevation into my town layout. I all feels so... unnatural? I can't explain it.
@olive cobalt natural terraforming is so awful I hate every second of it
me lookjg at your guy's beautiful natural islands: 🥺🥺
me looking at mine: trash
I’m trying to take advantage of my island’s natural layout but there is just so much...green
I put down one cliff tile and start crying
Yeah I like the way my layout was set up, I just regret where I put housing
Hello! I'm extremely bad at designing islands, so would someone be willing to make an island layout for me? I can pay you in NMT! Just DM an example of yours along with your price!!! (Only need the map! No other work will need to be done on your part)
Do you guys rely on water a lot?
@woven drift What your islands theme? I'd suggest maybe some flowery decoration or a mountain bike? c:
I’m also really stingy with nook miles and don’t want to buy the cliff creator lol I do like using the water tool from time to time
Anyone have any references on how to make heart shaped ponds/rivers? I want to do one around my town hall but I’m having trouble getting the shape right
@strong ermine @charred mica maybe message this guy he was talking earlier about map design for free
Anyone have any references on how to make heart shaped ponds/rivers? I want to do one around my town hall but I’m having trouble getting the shape right
@gusty path I’ve seen several YouTube videos on it but never tried it. They looked pretty easy to follow
@gusty path bet lemme snag a photo from my island
@gusty path https://vm.tiktok.com/7NQtmn/
@gusty path use a pixel art heart if you’re wanting to do a big one there should be generators online to follow
it loks a bit deformed
You can leave the bottom part out, but it looks more defined from the map with the extra add on
BUT IT'S GOOD
:(
Anyone know how to do the moon crescent shaped ponds?
Thanks guys 💕
@Keith I got you w/ free island design
@dusty sparrow cute!
Like I said, from the map it looks more defined
@charred mica
Posting my beach seaside house area again, Looking for any suggestions/criticism, Not shown I've added a beach ball / beach chair 💕
Thank you :)
designed this whimsical path 🙂
Adorableee
Im trying to make a custom design to put on a pannel for nooks cranny so do you guys know what i should put
That's lovely solana! If you feel like it, you can share the QR for it in #path-codes so others can use it too!
@whole bear what path is thattt
tips on how to improve the scenery/deco?
goin for a medieval forest theme, so no modern stuff
country fencess
No.
anything else other than replacing the fences?
Godzilla
i assume these ideas are for the empty tile on the right, correct?
or should i replace the stones on the right of the player
@woven verge no theme, just doing it as I go haha. Thanks for input 
making my island into a national park 🙂
is this good?
@whole bear put the path under the front steps of the house as well maybe?
omg that's adorable!!
Cute!! Maybe customize the bench to white
@patent sky I cant ):
kk
Weird :0 maybe it's different on sand
how do you get those tall signboards with the custom design on them?
@pulsar cloud they're customized simple panels
yAh
im using zen
Not the material you 5head
Help
Cute
Why the stairs look so ugly how do people place them
Does anyone has cute stairs placed upfront (no sideways) that can teach me
where do you guys get the designs for the simple panels whatttt
Just dig either farther into the cliff or make the entire cliff face flat maybe?
Yoooo, I need some some with this part of my Island. Because the floor Just looks so weird with the walls and it doesn't really fit island. Halp
? @patent sky 😢
why don't you connect em?
@woven verge remove fence id say
still a WIP but! Love Lake really do be a heart doe 
do u guys make the simple panel designs yourself or?? cuz they look so pretty 🥺
Whats a simple panel design
@hearty remnant now round out the cliff edges?
Woah, those look amazing @woven drift ! 😱
Tysmmmmm
where did you get the panel design @woven drift
Idk just found some on reddit/twitter
Kskdksjsjs idk
@hearty remnant which one? or just both?
I mean find something within those options that you like?
I like that one for the stairs
Id remove all of them but because personally I don’t like fence overuse . They’re annoying bc take a whole block
I just use them for houses and certain areas and shops
@shadow temple which one? Could you mark it with an emoji
5 Star rated island of me 😄
@hearty remnant that most recent one or the one where it's completely surrounded by land are my favorite
Okay thanks
Is that a row of waterfalls in the back?
thought this townhall placement might be neat, i’ve never seen one so close to the beach before. thoughts?
what flowers do you guys think would look best in my shrine area?
Pink and white windflowers?
@modern kindle probably some pink & White. Maybe hyacinths?
I'd suggest pink windflowers or pink hyacinths!
I have no idea where to start with terraforming and stuff
thanks 🙂
I actually think having the town hall close to the beach would be good. leaves more room for creative freedom everywhere else! i wish i did that instead of where mine is (near the center lol ) . i like it! @grim pasture
Is it true too many fish, etc? Will make your frame rates drop? I like this area but omg the lag
i like it!!! i also love your hat LOL
Ya!
Thanku!!!
its cool
Seriously tho does anyone else have areas where frame rate just drops?
Not rly
Finally finished this area, second floor seat coming by mail tomorrow!
I just have areas where it pops in from the distance but no frame drop
@junior ore where do you yall get completed fossils
I just dig up fossils every day and take ones from my friends (that they don't need)!
oh ok, man the fossils look cool
The t-rex mouth opens and closes!!
hey guys i need a helper i dont have paths and stuff so i need a helper to decorate my island
i will pay plx dm me
Other people can't place paths
hey guys i need a helper i dont have paths and stuff so i need a helper to decorate my island
@amber steeple You can’t decorate your island when people are over
@amber steeple sorry bud, but other players cant place stuff and you cant move things around when someones over
Emerald so far!
Anybody seen anyone doing good gardening type decoration? Looking for some inspiration 😊

I hate this, do any of you have this problem too? Do you guys just get rid of a whole row because of this corner?
ive never had that issue before
any ideas for what paintings I should add to my museum? ^.^
i can always curve it out
Ahh no I meant like it’s not even
hmmm...i seee... i still havent had that issue 🤔
Like I want to put fences there but since there’s one block missing I have to get rid of the row on top
@ripe sentinel can u do van goghs sunflower painting
i’m not too impressive when it comes to designing, but here’s my Zen garden
https://twitter.com/caskidu/status/1252394231261347842?s=19 oh i wanted to show off my shrine too
i made a catalyst shrine lol #AnimalCrossing #ACNH #FateGO https://t.co/qFtdFG8OrA
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/698045805726007370/701672280069242890/Wetikhap.jpg Anyone up for a town tour?
ill try it!
nice garden
@silver sorrel I'm up
heck yeah ill dm the code
What are some good flower pairings for decorating ?
Thoughts? I tried to make a dig site infront of my museum and I kinda like how it turned out
I think blue pansies and orange tulips look super cute, but I need another combination
city center area is going well
@dense heart let me on your islaaaaaand
ITS still not done yet :((
Pleeeeeeeeaaaase
Move the gap over one to the right?
anybody have any forest like entrances they can share for inspo? or if they’ve seen anybody else share one!
Uhhh
@dense heart your designs are always so impressive! 😍 awesome job!
I have a forest entrance yes
can i see it? (:
Then the fences are uneven @patent sky
Sure, it's not that um great but yeah
@wild cave mine is technically forest ahaha
here’s the top @patent sky i hope this ok for you for now
I forgot to rotate it aaaa
ty @flat lily 🥺🥺👉🏾👈🏾
is that the entrance by the dodo? @patent sky
Yes @wild cave
Raaaaajjjj show the diner again
Anyone got good inspiration for the area around resident services?
I'm thinking about adding a suspension bridge to the entrance
I need to live my non-nature island fantasies through your designs
I know I’m not supposed to compare or whatever
i can’t decide help
spots in my town i like so far
But damn all ur designs making me feel like shit haha
Thanks everyone for the ideas earlier! The fountain one is turning out nice so far!
Iv only finsh the out side of the House , I still have to do the inside to make it look like the house from the game havrvest moon ,What do u think guys ^.^ = town is going to be the theme harvet moon more friends mineral town
Why does everyones islands make me feel like crap about mine lol
Same... kinda makes me depressed
i've been terraforming the past few days and have spent HOURS doing so... im starting to regret that after seeing yalls creations. but it just makes me more inspired :) keep up the great job yall!
Come here zucc, lemme hug you
ahhh @tawny wagon you really shouldn’t, i play animal crossing purely for its design/villagers so i TT a lot to get work done // items


Everybody is doing amazing jobs how many hours have yall spent on the game?
the blossom flowers or the lantern?
u shouldn’t feel ashamed of ur islands at all cause i have seen amazing ones completely different from mine
Any ideas for a cozy forest campsite area??
@barren swift why not both?
like there is really no one way to have nice looking place it’s hella subjective
@oak locust because then i can’t get in the bench thing
I like the lantern, but its in the way of the chair so :( maybe make the chair vertical and put the lantern to the side?
I meant like not next to the bench. ^
If your island is only built to compete with other islands it won't make you happy and it'll look generic imho
there’s going to be a second chair on the other side of the lantern/plant
Oh then flower
Flower
Dang guess I built my island just to compete aha fuck 
fantastic thank you
ohhh gotcha! hmm im not sure then. i'd say flower, or may a different plant that looks a little more natural if thats a vibe you're going for
i put a mixture of dirt paths, weed and natural flowers to make an unmanages road area
Basically I'm just saying do what you think looks nice and don't compare yourself to other
yeah i spent so long like three weeks ago STALKING this and the other chat
if we could plant these plants in the ground and hide the pot, we’d have a whole different story
for designs , and like prob out of all them only 20% were anything even lightly hinted in my island,
i just put on netlfix and vibed
and ill say taint the island with your ideas, make what looks awsome to you
I mean, as humans we do tend to compare ourselves to other people. Even subconsciously, we still do it
Does anyone have any ideas on how to incorporate a double waterfall with the monster statues?
Thoughts? I’m nowhere near done yet 😂
My entrance ahjdhfj https://twitter.com/HermitInput/status/1252423984139796483?s=19
Wow that's adorable
That's beautiful!!! 😍 @fading anvil i love the natural look!
Thank u!!
rena our maps the same
Omg it's so hard to work with the symmetrical river mouths
Hey guys! What's the dimension of a villagers house?
Does anyone have entrance ideas for a modern town?
My airport and townhall are really badly placed from each other and it’s really annoying :(
They’re really close and crooked
Any ideas for the campsite? Want it to be super comfy
@woven drift I believe 4x4 plot. hopefully that helps you make plans accordingly!
i actually was really happy with it
@flat lily thank you!
@fading anvil can i see your map? your island is so beautiful
i planned on going one way but i changed it
my entrance is semi modern it just has water walls idk if that’s what u need or not
Do you guys have any ideas for river mouths that are on the same side?? Ive only really seen designs for river mouths from two diff sides
raj did you use a map planner prior to making your island? or did you just let your creativity run free as you went?
For forcing rock spawns, does the custom design tile trick work?
I'm trying to do this the most optimal way
@daring abyss my map isn't finished yet wheeze but 1 sec while i get a pic
omg tysm
@vale nymph I think most optimal way is to build fences, mainly cheaply craftable ones
i just went off
i was too lazy for map planner djdkdk ofc
like i opened it and went :/ yeah no
Fences block off 3 spaces right?
Fences block off all adjacent tiles
Monka
Tysm
here’s my map with double bottom before and rn
I plan on redoing the whole back half
This man got FAVORITE neighbours
oooo having main town hall align with the path to the airport. thats so lucky
What's the limit of how many bridges you can build?
however!!! roald has his own little gym area
8
and i gave cookie her own place too with cute furniture so i had an excuse to use it SOMEWHERE
okay can I tour you island for Inspo it looks so cool
Starting my residential district of course I have to go with the most annoying fences to build 😂
i plan on letting ppl tour once i finish beach cafe (last project i need ) 🥺
which is like two days ish from now depending on when i want sleep lol
lmaoo, can i message you in like 2 days?
I cant wait to show off my forest island when it's finally done AHHHH
How’s my layout?
Can you place houses on the third level?
@woven drift Yeah u can
Oh okay good, thanks
no level is safe
Does anyone have an island with a double bottom I really need some inspiration🥺
Hello, Does anyone know the meuseums dimensions?
That looks really awesome!!! @clever minnow also hi fellow nicole @eager echo ! <3
@flat lily Ty 
@eager echo raj just posted his double south
@flat lily hi 😂
https://discordapp.com/channels/494376688256548865/681277827244621855/701986243508174900 @eager echo from what lulu is referring to!
@patent sky ty
@flat lily thank you!
Would it be weird to close off one of the river mouths?
tbh to get a 3 star i just put a bunch of furniture/fences down and planted flowers lol
Unrelated but I was waiting in this turnip queue for at least an hour and it was almost my turn and they shut down the island
y ikes that sucks
@charred jolt damn🥺 I’ve waited for like an hour before then when I went there was a communication error
what was the price
547 apparently
But one time someone advertised that and when I got there it was 200
And everyone is asking for so much entry fee and it really pisses me the fuck off
The fact that my airport and town hall are basically next to each other is really discouraging me from wanting to terraform. The placing is hideous. Does anytime else have this issue? 😅
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/698045805726007370/701672280069242890/Wetikhap.jpg
Tours are still going on if anybody would like to visit my cozy, mountain paradise. Please DM me so I can get you the Dodo Code 
Does anyone have a music area they could send me a pic of?
Okay I'm posting this for the last time today LOL, My seaside/beach home, Open to any suggestions and criticism 😊
maybe some of the wooden panels instead of the fencing or behind the fencing?
don't know what they're called but they'd look good if ur going for like a beachside cabin feel
The flooring? It's a pattern and it's supposed to be an indoor/outdoor seating area, I was trying to give it a "separate" feeling
Country fencing
I'll try adding more flooring though and seeing how it looks thanks!
Anyone know if you delete path QRs that are on your character but you've uploaded them to your creator code, if those get deleted too or can you redownload them later?
I think it'll look great if you extend the custom tile so the fence is sitting on it yeah
@whole bear was referring to the fencing
the flooring is nice, i use the same one, lol
I knoooow
Yeah, The fencing I tried matched the best I could find
i got this good wood flooring
I wish we had a canopy type ceiling I could put over fences
@whole bear extend it one block in each direction so the fence sits on it I think k
I'm gonna try it I think I might have tried it already and it looked off but I cant remember!
what do you guys think? this is the left residential area of my island
This is my little park area that I'm putting together behind my shops so far, thoughts?
i really love the trees!!! and yeah wood would also look really cute for flooring
I'm bored so I might be opening for people to hang out for a bit, I also have Kicks with the white stud backpack
oh i updated my zen garden and park finally
im going to lose my mind trying to make this moon pond
Where's museum going to go?
does anyone have any cemetery inspo?
Anybody seen a canyon done before? Struggling to get it to look nice at the size I want...
i lied about my@park being done i’m going to add pine trees
@Aze#0066 my island canyon
Super similar to what I’m trying to achieve, thanks. Can’t figure out how to end mine though since a waterfall won’t work :/
Fish market just needs more fish variety
Hmm could do a field of flowers or a lake/pond
Yeah, opening up into a clearing is a good idea
Yeah I’m trying to work it in but it’s sorta hard to fit it in this space. If I get too close to the ocean it just looks weird cause it doesn’t connect.
looking to tour some cool islands! specifically terraformed ones, dm with a pic pf your map (:
Can you put two ramps right next to each other?
can anyone here give me advice on my island - looking for someone to come over take a look at my island and tell me how to improve
What should I do with my bathing tub
Working on a custom fencing, what do you think?
If anyone had this map and has a completed island please lmk! I’d love to see how people are making rivers with symmetrical river mouths
dreamy forest area, not quite where i want it but it's getting there!
raccoons being my vendors 😂😂
does anyone know if the cobble stone is a qr code that everyone uses?
Not mine but found this and... wow
In case they add another shop :3 #AnimalCrossing #ACNH #NintendoSwitch https://t.co/Q8m1LVL5ai
anyone have any cafe ideas
my garden shop area :3
LAKE WHERE DID U GET THAT STONE
Time traveling friend came thruuuuuuu
@fallow veldt What kind of theme are you thinking for it?
i guess a floral theme
LAKKKEEE
aww the hearts
is there a way to move the residential services
lake is me
it’s so close to airport i don’t like >_>
Can't move it unfortunately
what stone @devout pulsar
the coral coloured one in the twitter link on the ground
I would say try using whatever fence you prefer most, then sound the outside it with flowers. maybe grab a couple rare or cool ones and throw them on a spot in the actual cafe @fallow veldt
@devout pulsar i dont have any stones in the vid
lake the pathway
No Problem 🙂
oh its the terra-cotta path
Hello everyonee
where do i find it?
when u unlock paths in the game
I have a quick question about island design, is it better to organize flowers by species or colour
jeez my island sucks compared to that
Color imo if you’re not breeding
Yeah i think so, all my paths are lined with flowers organized by species and it looks kinda ugly tbh
Time to move around 150 flowers tmrw lool
my space exhibit only has blue flowers
The majority of my island is decorated with pink and white flowers in alternating order lol
Hey everyone! I have an empty spot on my island and I dont know what I wanna put in that area. Anyone got any suggestions?
does anyone know how to make a heart platform, I trying to have my campsite on a raised heart platform but don't know how?
A library or a cafe if you haven’t done that yet? Or a spa, sewing area, star viewing area, theater
@kind escarp ooo Ill do an outdoor library! Thanks!!
I’m assuming heart platforms are similar to making heart lakes except it might be harder because you’re making an outline instead of filling it in
No problem @raw patrol
i do color and species in dif areas tbh
@plain lance what app is that
Wdym what app? It's my island layout from in game...
Oh ok
But screenshot ur island and use the happy home designer to help u plan
how do you put down curbs?
@plain lance thank you
I'm so frustrated!! it isn't letting me move Scoots house... because Scoots house is in the way???
Yeah, gotta move it twice.
that is so dumb!!
Welcome to animal crossing
Gotta love Nintendo
Great game but massive need for QOL changes
True
Yeah good point
they wont fix the constant dialogue boxes cause it would make them to regular video game npc than trying to be "humanized" villagers

Tbh if they just fixed online I would call it acceptable.
I just want more than 8 inclines...
I just wanna be able@to buy like 10 tickets at once and buy everything in one color in one go at ables
why do i need to confirm 3 times that i want a code to invite anyone
if i misclick, i have to disconnect, then connect back online and do it again
Is there a way I can keep the square tile shape of a custom path but have it it show up in the mini map? Currently I have custom paths and the paths don’t show
If I overlay it I get the squiggly edges which I don’t prefer
put paths under custom paths n it shows on map
Those problems are annoying but I really want more custom design slots, especially when certain paths that I like take up 5+ slots at a time
The edges cut off
You need your custom path to have no transparency for that and I think it should work.
Lmao first world problems
maybe ur over designing if all the slots are filled up 
Ahh ok~ the transparency makes sense
Nope lol, I only use one main path. The other slots are for other paths like stepping stones or stalls
i havent counted, but i think they gave you more slots than NL if you used all the villagers combined
Hi! can anyone suggest some graveyard appropriate furniture items? I have the western style stone and fortune tellers set along with flat garden stones/mossy stones. Any help is appreciated 🙂 I was thinking maybe the skeleton item but it might look to cheesy.
theres zen style stone
please help me lol what should i put her btw THE HOUSE IS MOVING THIS ISNT THE FRONT YARD and my flower garden is right next to it:/
golden casket
can anyone let me tour their island? send me a pic of your map (:
Ah yes, the zen stone and golden casket are good suggestions.
@heavy summit that looks amazing
I've also got a bunch of black flowers
thanks its just a regular old zen town
can someone help me lol?
people w centered resident services buildings are so lucky
i have no idea how to do my entrance
I never played NL but sorry for complaining then lol
Any other spooky-ish furniture suggestions?
Nah, nothing wrong with wanting more slots
can anyone send picture of how they decorated the outside of their ables sister shop
I would gladly pay for more custom slots.
DVJ18 tell me if my paths look dumb
Celeste is on my island if you’re in the Southern Hemisphere I can give you my code
mfw i see ur path
I hate the map part so much but in game it's so nice
i kinda like the way the dotted/checkerboard looking paths look on the map
Nice island lulu
@obsidian elbow an axe
No I mean like i put some custom paths and designs down today and I want to know if it looks dumb
anyone have pics of where/what they did with their gold roses?
does anyone have any general ideas on what to put in empty spaces?
@obsidian elbow
I always just put flowers lol
that's awesome! Thanks Vinh!
@woven drift fill your island with trees and make paths everywhere to get around
@woven drift I don't know what your fossil collection looks like, but i've collected a bunch of extras and put some on display on my island.
can anyone send picture of how they decorated the outside of their ables sister shop
i have secret cemetary
@heavy summit i love this!!!!!
@gilded elm I put mine on the lookout
@obsidian elbow i’ve also done that
i just cleared out most of my design progress so far out of frustration lol. creative terraforming is a huge struggle for me.
@woven drift a restaurant?
@strong hamlet
You can also make a water area with stepping stones in it.
i just want fencing/paths that don't scream "japan town theme" on it
I’m so tempted to just make my island totally flat lol
ty @heavy summit
Look up transparent brick paths
finished decorating my shop area 🙂
panels are my best friend at this point tbh
Ah true I’d have to make a fishing hole up high
well i dont need anymore stringfish since i already got a guitar fish
You can't?
I need help connecting the river mouths and the river on the top left
@pearl topaz same about the japan theme, i feel like the game makes it so easy to have that theme so i’m trying to do something different
anyone got a city/urban island that i can take inspo off?
What would be the best way to connect them and also have a large lake somewhere?
you know what the game shoved down so many peoples throat
IRON WOOD FURNITURE
i hate it !!!
same
There are fish that only spawn on clifftop
@dense heart what is that panel thing up against the cliff? :)
Offering 5* Island tours! Tips appreciated but not required! (Includes 150k HHA score house). 2 at a time. 🙂 Pm me.
it’s a simple panel but the color is cooper
@dense heart do you know if the panels line up well on different levels? I have an indoor-outdoor restaurant thing i wanna do that requires two floors
for the edges
oh okay
they are kinda higher
Don't think so.
My work in progress :3
jackraidenlol?
Imagine asking for tips for people to come to your island not for turnips
i can send a pic of my diner
Doubt.
it’s 3 floors
dm pls
if u wana see if it lines up
or you can post here haha i dont mind either way, i just dont wanna clog the chat
Any thoughts on the layout?
i got a sting for saying a joke that my island is free just manatory fee of 1000 nmt lol
Offering 5* Island tours! Tips appreciated but not required! (Includes 150k HHA score house). 2 at a time. 🙂 Pm me.
okay
@abstract zodiac i like the layout. idea of a large cliff top lake sounds really nice
I want a Lake Hylia vibe.
I like it when people charge for entry and ask for tips.
@abstract zodiac I like the water around the cliffs but it'll look weirdly pool-Ish if you only have one square at the bottom
@wraith spoke do u have any pictures
Are videos not allowed here only photos?
One square at the bottom?
@dense heart I do not. 😦
Videos are okay
videos are they just need to be small
What do you mean?
One second palm I'll take a pic
in like size
@wraith spoke do u have any pictures
@dense heart did u mean to ping me ?
i figured lmfaoo all good
love u tho
Ah ok. I wanted to show how I fixed my off center town hall. I just put my path to go only left/right coming from the airport then rebuilt up and made the path sides look symmetrical so it felt centered
@dense heart looking cozy. What's that wall/screen in the back?

simple panel !
Hey everyone im still looking for some ideas about what to do with my rivers. Anyone with the two bottom mouthed rivers, could you share yours
@abstract zodiac
Heck yeah simple panel
are you sure we havent played smash before at any time
knew someone with that exact name
That's just me not taking the time to paint it well.
i got done with all my pathways (3 wide) and then placed my bridges ,, that are, , , 2 wide. i was highly upset lol
wait
i mean this in the nicest way possible, but do you guys ever look at people's islands and be like "yuck"? someone had like a weird baby doll sanctuary thing and i was just creeped out and all of his villagers were the cranky type
Ohhhh dnsjsofnwkso sorry
that side waterfall
Anyone have good villager yard examples? I put my villagers 3 spots apart in a community of 6 and I think I made a mistake.
is really cute
@pearl topaz That might be their vibe?
Raj I'll tip you 10k to come to my island
Variety is the spice of life
Hey everyone im still looking for some ideas about what to do with my rivers. Anyone with the two bottom mouthed rivers, could you share yours
lulu is ur shops open
alright im down
The cutesy urban vibe is overdone IMO.
i don’t need bells hehe but incan visit tmmr i have been playing ac for 10 hours today and i’m chillin rn
@patent sky do you mind if i visit your island :0 i'm looking for a more natural island for inspo 🥺
can i see anyone’s island maps? qwq i need some inspo lol
Could people show me how the outside of their museums look??? I’m trying to get some ideas!!
@dense heart I need your big decorator brain opinions
@torn current yes ofc!
i'll be real, the one thing i really need changed is the ability to change material/color of inclines and bridges and fencing
how are u people so creative i cant
If you're stuck on rivers, remember you don't actually have to connect it to both mouths. You could have one open into a lake or something
@lime bane im with you
i love the steel bridges but hate how its that shiny blue shade/red
@patent sky aww tysm! i'll hop over soon 🙂
i hate that i can’t HANG items on panels smh
the only cool thing about my island is my entrance and museum- how do y'all do the entire island-
Same Raj
wait wait everyone; for the record you cant put down rugs on the ground huh?
nope
Yes no rugs outside
rip there goes my giant picnic blanket idea
only indoors
I gotta do my museum soon
that is Stupid
no!!! u can we code pattern for blankets
You can do it with custom designs @pearl topaz
hi! im looking for inspiration on what to do with extra blank space. im not creative at all haha. pls dm me pictures of inspiration cus y'all's islands are cute 😌 ill literally give you bells for it akjfhakdjs
some are really cute it just takes a lot of spots
Can i visit anyones island for some inspo? preferable someone with the bottom mouths
my museum is kinda cool i think
@lime bane u gotta think of the whole island as in sections just like the entrance or you’ll get overwhelmed
i don’t care for my museum hehe
yeah i just don't know what to put in the other sections
I need crescent moon chairs for my dang centerpiece 😩
i have these huge spaces
it’s like any other shop to me tbh
Can people show me how the outside of their museum looks???? I need ideas!
Please 😦
i put a digsite next to mine
i also keep seeing the same two stair case thingy waterfall for museums and i-😳😔😖
i wish i could have more custom pattern spaces
I wanna do smth like this outside my museum
YES ELLEN
yeah i have the two staircase thingys
i’m full rn and i’m so pissed
Same if I could just have like 10 more
i wish they'd do that thing where u could buy more spaces with nook nikes
hi! i was wondering how much space do you guys usually leave for decorations next to your house? (not in front or back)
like yard space?
Imagine actually having an island full of friends there'd be no room for everyone's qr clothes
i'm doing a neighborhood thing so i give each villiager like a 7x7 square or sumn
LMAO
or the ones with personality
no just like to the sides of the house like i was going to do 3 on each side but im not sure if thats too much tbh
people came to my island and added their custom qr clothes, now my prisoners villagers wont wear their jump suit
do u guys prefer the like organized urban like look or the natural messy look for ur island
like roald has a full ass gym
with merengue i gave her a whole front and backyard but stinky gets nothing
i have coco, stitches, fauna, and marshall those are my favorites
do any of you have photos of what your villager's houses exteriors look like ? i've been giving all of them big yard + furniture but i wanna take it up a notch and give them both a front and back yard
Messy messy messy
@candid pawn i lean more organized but messy in its own way
i gave each of them a tree next to their house
@unreal vigil what about your own house? xD
like i like distinct different areas but exact symmetry makes me uncomf
@elfin python i have like no space LOL melba and merengue get it all and im okay with that
yeah that makes sense
i wish people could do construction on other people's islands bruh that'd be so helpful in the right settings
it’s funny tho cause with my island rn there is only ONE sport
i think about the people who have perfectly symmetrical maps with every inch of the island decorated and what they’re going to do when new buildings and stuff get added to the game. like they’ll have to redo their whole layouts lol
spot for rocks
i feel that but also u def can have a fully decorated island
with areas that can be remodeled
This was my old villager design, but I wanna give them a backyard and a slightly bigger front yard
@fiery geyser YES!! like they talked abt like a new building or something for the cafe and im like ..... with what space? LOL
Can rocks spawn on sand tiles
no
I’m 90% sure I saw a reddit post of rocks on sand path.
I saw one for dirt
im not sure
Is this okay looking?
actually can someone school me on how to do back to back waterfalls
@patent sky did u know ankha is crafting palm tree lamp
i just want a not potato looking entrance
I actually have lots of open space for more shops
Is this okay looking?
@west marsh I would add one more red rose at the bottom to make it pointy!
Really cute pond
@west marsh i vibe with it. making sharp edges with the waterforming is literally impossible and it kinda sucks but it's ok
@west marsh maybe curve out the middle of the heart like where that single tile is so its more heart shaped?
that's my entrance so far
@patent sky is this intentional or forgotten
does anyone have any tips
@lime bane I really like it omg
it's Very Loud
wow. my entrance is like t r e e s that looks great lol
what else do you plan on doing to it
i dunno i might add flowers or something on top of the cliffs
@heavy summit wtf how did that get there lol
do u think i should add anything else to it
@unreal vigil I appreciate you!
Also my friend buried pitfalls on my island and I haven't found them yet
Ty
every time i see a town tour i feel like everyone else’s island is bigger than mine. do y’all think terraforming a lot helps islands look bigger?
does anyone know the dimensions of the crescent moon decoration?
that looks dope
This is Hippeux's yard
@elfin python if only....
@wet cliff ahhhh i like that idea; i just dont like how the fencing doesn't split the path ): i had that issue with mine too
I think it's 2 wide but that's just a guess
@elfin python I saw that! Idk i might change it. I just don’t like it being angled

Yeah wish fences were between pathing
i found a forgotten fossil spot on ur island
u should do like a flower garden or something cool in that little middle part
im struggling with trying to make my island not so squared off and symmetrical. like everything is placed in squares of land with pathways connecting them and it's just boring :( any tips?
You can make a pretty good entrance with such a centered airport
omg yeah i actually wanted to ask everyone - for the top row of the map, do you get villagers and weeds there? if so how do you prevent that? cause sometimes when I start my game up, its centered on a villager thats walking behind the cliffs
should i just put fencing?
@elfin python I might do that. I just don’t like it being angled, but it looks nicer
now my villagers spots feel ugly JENDB
10 plank long dock hehe
@pearl topaz i put fencing along the back in the one space between cliffs
LMFAO
@west marsh ohh i totally didn't know it couldn't be done that way but straight but if you want it straight the second picture you posted looks nice!
Hmm I see; do you have anything you have on the rocks in the top row? I see people do like beach cafes or bathhouses, and i know that top left secret beach is gonna be for something also
anyone have any ideas to fill in my blank island spots? like not with a building
I don't think anything spawns back there but villagers can walk there
my island doesn't flow. it's like ok this here this there and the paths are so linear, but i want it to vibe and idk how to do that. tips? you can even dm me your cool layout lool
@woven drift tbh it cld be like 5 spaces away from the airport so not really lol
Yeah rip me
@elfin python also, I like having flowers around the pond, would it even work for that angled pond?

@unreal vigil if you can find some custom path qr codes u like, i like the idea of having the path be broken up/ overgrown in some areas. it helps the paths look less uniform all the time
my switch just died in the middle of me terraforming
I love that style, it's like natural, beautiful chaos
