Aaa those picnic blanket tufts are really good
does anyone have any sample of residential area where villagers houses have fences and a little side yard? what fences do you guys use
Desperatly waiting for the iron and stone fence myself to replace the zen I've been using
same, i have zen but i really need that stone fencing. all my bridges/inclines are stone
Oh my god I just revived the title chaotic, now I can be chaotic life form >:D
i made a lil bamboo park 😳 it’s not heavily decorated but i like it
Cute 🥰 Love the benches
cute!

@sharp stump I’d say use the simple wooden fence. Otherwise, if you want something else, the lattice fence can be good

@dim dune ty :]
selling street piano diy recipe dm me your best offer
I have all my villagers homes fenced off with what feels like the most appropriate fench for their style and personality x
Just know the lattice fence is a lot taller
I use hedges
Yeah that can be cool, but then there’s also the need to look somewhat consistent. Instead I used simple fence for everyone and then different colored flowers and decor
I haven’t decorated most of them yet because I don’t have a lot to decorate WITH but ya know
Like for example one of my snooty villagers go a pearl fountain, which also matches her interior, while a lazy villager got a barbecue
@sharp stump this is mine if it helps
ooooo the hedges also become orange in autumn !!!
Yesm
@sharp stump this is mine if it helps
@blazing night tyyy
Anyone think it's going too far to look up the natural climates for each of the 5 fruits to accurately place them within separate districts of the island?
sounds pretty neat to me
It’s not too far, and if you wanna put in the work to do that then go ahead
Ok good. Thought maybe I was overthinking my island a bit too much. Haha
hey guys, how many tiles for an incline?
Nah man, although a lot of islands are just whatever, other islands can probably be considered art
And art takes a lot of effort :>
Where u guys getting hedge walls 👀👀👀
Mine would be considered obsession. I've based each of my districts off my favorite Dungeons and Dragons locations.

@lofty wharf That's actually super thoughtful to do!
hedge from the update @hot iris

@hot iris completing a nature day nook miles + task
then talk to tom nook after completing it
Ooo thank you guys 💗
man this is gonna suck
Mine would be considered obsession. I've based each of my districts off my favorite Dungeons and Dragons locations.
@lofty wharf even so it’s really creative, and I wouldn’t say it’s an obsession. Obsession is to the point where you like something so much you feel like you couldn’t live without it
time to tear apart half of my island cuz i dont like how it looks anymore
goodbye top half
@north saddle wow
@north saddle good luck!
this took too long
man i hate this feeling of never ending unsatisfaction with my island
@dim dune yeah about that. >.> Haha
Thanks. I'll definitely be posting the end product once it's all complete in here. Not a time skipper so its definitely taking me some time.
that probably everyone has lol
took me 2 weeks ^^
cedars on top tier, mix of fruits on mid and hardwood on bottom
ooh if you dont mind, could i possibly tour your island
Does anyone have some olive tea bushes laying around? I want them for my outside cafe area. I already used yellow/orange hyacinths so it would be really nice with those bushes
i wanna see how those edges of the mountains look since i always stick mine up to the shores
mine?
I guess I could go in another channel but uh-
yeah
i’ll send you a dodo
You guys have villages and stuff but I have scatter houses
same
does anyone have an island w the mouths of their river at the bottom?
Not me
At the bottom?
at the bottom of the map i assume
I've never seen that
i cluster them because i don’t have room anywhere else
yea like both are on airport side
when you mess with layers it’s hard to scatter them out
@real belfry yeah, I do
i too wanted to scatter my houses but im thinking of putting them in a one cluster since i want to make room for future new content
I have mine scattered, and each of my island features is built around the villager's houses, each one themed around them
The idea is each of them sorta runs the place
Staircase to able sisters, like it?
@coarse jackal could i see your map? i’m really struggling trying to map mine out
@real belfry mine is like that too
@real belfryi do have two southern rivers
could i see y’all’s map?
My houses are all off center and it bugs me. But I’m trying to make it work without moving houses
Mine, WIP
Nice.
Hey guys whats the size of the able sister's shop
@uncut goblet Can I see a photo of your golf course up close? It sounds interesting and haven't seen one on an island yet
@dull meteor Its in the pins 🙂
@dull meteor 5x4 read the pins
What pins
I'm trying to find items to use at the ends, for like themes and I havent gotten the rope fencing for it yet but I can show you the current so far @dense marlin
top of discord looks like a pin
Thanks sorry Im new.
@uncut goblet that's fine, I'm still curious as hell about the concept
any orhcard inspirations?
I really want to add a branch to my river but i’m not sure where it would look good
that island name though
@dense marlin
Does anyone have a front yard for marina? Would love ideas for how to decorate around her house!
@uncut goblet Looks pretty good so far. Good job!
how many tiles does a nova light take? anyone knows?
@sharp stump mines basic but efficient, I'm going to put flower patches in between the trees (up and down between them I mean)
orchard*
@sharp stump mines basic but efficient, I'm going to put flower patches in between the trees (up and down between them I mean)
@uncut goblet looks great, thank you
I made the fruit designs so I know what fruit grows there when it's all picked
I did that before but I thought they looked ugly and removed them
Gn guys
Ill take a video of my orchard it think its cute but its just tiny lol
@dim dune theres a lot online if you want to find one you like ! in #misc-pattern-codes theres a lot of ppl who shared theirs
https://twitter.com/atlanticise/status/1253971851925057536?s=20
hi yall! what do you think of my little santorini? the blank space is for a new villager that i haven't gotten yet haha
ok i thought of the boardwalk idea and had to go back couple hours to download some planks but idk how i feel about it in the entrance :(((
also villagers legit always in the way when doing stuff
@sharp stump
This is the lights at night, I really need other colors though
@sharp stump
@shell tiger thank youu 😄 looks nice
@unique pond I love it! love all the details 🙂
Just finished completely remodeling my island after 5 long days. What do you think! 🙂 Feedback welcome! Feedback required if you want a tour haha
Damn
Going to add a silo, ground coverings, and a small path tomorrow... Any other ideas?
! a silo, that's what I can use in my garden area, thanks
You’re welcome! Lol
So i was making a n island that needs 10 inclines, just found out my limit is 8
@primal ginkgo Maybe some Shrubs! the lil bushes 😄
As for other ideas, I have shovels/watering cans placed for decoration in my garden beds
@noble tiger Your island looks awesome! How many hours do you have on acnh?
I hate my life
@shell tiger hehe thank you! my hand is completely cramping from the effort now!
I def Wanna do a watering can on the “shed” just so I can grab it easily to water my flowers as well as a shovel!
there's a max on inclines?
And bridges
good to know
I was going to do a massive farm but I liked the look of a smaller one better... I’ll just have to rotate out my flowers if I need to breed something else
@noble tiger Your island looks awesome! How many hours do you have on acnh?
@cobalt patrol just hit 335 hrs today 😅 def lots of sitting around with the game on though
Damn i barely have 180 😳
@grim cosmos 8 of each is the cap
i only have 4 inclines and 3 bridges so i'm good
Sorry 600+ now
@primal ginkgo this is what I mean with shovels
Ooo!! Also the bucket! That would do great near the well! Thank youuuu
my brain just paused for a second
omg i only have 70 hours and i thought that was a lot
@primal ginkgo haha makes me feel better
what i should put behind stall
i was wondering if my + button was broken cuz it wasnt showing up the terraforming things
i just didnt have terraforming mode activated
@cloud trellis Cardboard boxes to hold the excess stock they can't display
@cloud trellis this is a silly idea I’ve implemented too many times on my island, but I have gnomes on chairs manning things like my cotton candy stand and popcorn cart
It’s just something fun to add ^^ you can also use dolls or place a mannequin down
@cloud trellis In some spots I've put the clothes I've purchased to look like workers
@cloud trellis maybe chairs for villagers running them.
and what should i change for the foosball table
Do a little table and chairs surrounded by bushes/flowers?
okay thank you for the advice
@terse peak any tips for things to make my island rating go up?
Be careful using that @ could get you in trouble I think
dont try to ping everyone in the server
Otherwise, more flowers and place lots of things down throughout your island
Because everyone gets pinged
There’s 300,000+ people lmao
it’s only for important announcements
Ok I’m new to the server thanks for the information
plant flowers, pick weeds & pretty much do whatever isabelle tells you
K
Woah I flattened my island and just have my entrance done and already have a 3* rating o.o
Anyone whose your favorite villager mines lucky
I don’t know what to say
Just starting up conversation
how wide are inclines?
@silk cove you only tagged an user called everyone and not everybody, but don’t do this again
I made the walmart logo in a big lake on walmart island
you guys know any good items that would fit around my museum?
Fossils
bruh that walmart island is legendary
im assuming your town flag is also the walmart logo
Omg @stray zenith that's absolutely hilarious 😂
It’s just wheelchairs and pig villagers
@woven drift thats cool, i would personally just put both shops closer together
@north saddle 100%
@blissful socket Maybe try some bug models from Flick?
This is my layout. I was inspired by this lake from Howls Moving Castle
@woven drift this is like my fav movie
@ornate mortar thanks! I'll consider that :-) I still have a lot to do to my island
@woven drift mine too! Also love Princess Monoke 😍 I know it's so typical to do Ghibli inspired things but I just love it too much
how about Walmart is that yalls fav store
i too love walmart
good
@woven drift mine too! Also love Princess Monoke 😍 I know it's so typical to do Ghibli inspired things but I just love it too much
@woven drift i know yes. also many people like these movies. but howls moving castle is just magical!i could visit when you are done?
Nothing to love about a store that subsidizes its employees with food stamps and welfare
@woven drift i know yes. also many people like these movies. but howls moving castle is just magical!i could visit when you are done?
@woven drift
It is such a magical movie! Of course 😊 😊
does someone have the same layout as me? Ive been trying a lot of things but none of it worked well, idk how to connect the airport to the resident services 
Thats mine.i had a 5 star island 3 days ago.then i started terraforming.spent almost 4 million bells to move everything around.and thats it now.i still need to create something on the big empty areas
exactly thats what to love about walmart. I am the lord of walmart Island and my villagers are my destitute subservients
@tender bough I have the same layout! Here’s how I did mine. It doesn’t have to be symmetrical or line up perfectly with resident services to look good
Im gonna steal ur design rome
wow thanks for the idea mate !
yoink
Woah that looks super cool! 👀
@alpine cape
@woven drift your map kind of reminds me of a Link to the Last 😁 I love it
It’s a big W.I.P but I like it so far
That looks amazing
@woven drift your map kind of reminds me of a Link to the Last 😁 I love it
@woven drift it reminds me more that i have ocd and everything has to be in line. haha.thanks
Is it possible somehow change beach layout? 🤔
I’m still moving all the homes
@peak kettle you can add sand to your green edges near the beach to add to it but you can’t really do much else! Hope this helps!
(( such a pity
@copper sand how do you mean?
Opinion :)?
Finally finished the most crucial addition to the island
@boreal steeple why is everyone hating on the pears ..I love them hahah
I honestly have no clue on what to do with my island ahaha
I havent really seen anyone that has the same layout as me
anyone have any cool floor designs I can use?
@tawdry topaz do u happen to have the 3D stair floor design?
@blazing night I absolutely love the lights in the trees I’ve been wanting to do a mystical forest n u inspired my lighting 😄
nop
I always recommend this one to people, it’s absolutely amazing
do u have any designs for like grass or stars for beach or something
anyone wanna send their entrance for inspo?
@real belfry sure thing
@mystic epoch I also use lamps behind regular trees as well, i think they look neat too
@willow terrace i have more or less the same layout as you but mirror and me too i don't know what to do😅
Building a kdrama romance scene area lol where the guy grabs the girls arm or they embrace each other after several months
can you guys send where you put your ables/nook shops and the museum? looking for some inspo
@willow terrace we have kinda similar layouts
@rare wasp that’s so cute!
My minds like blank
Guys quick question... I wanna build an Outdoor library... Any ideas how?
@tawdry topaz there’s a person who makes sand designs here https://twitter.com/jonasdoesart/status/1242419289673494528?s=21
I ain't as creative as everyone else
This is all the space i got
eh my advice is to take your time
=-=
its been like a week since i started trying to terraform and ive only ever finished building the entrance of my island
So... Does anybody have ideas for an Outdoor library now?
@woven drift I would use the wood pattern
Since they’re pretty tall, they can cover the face of cliffs
Yea but what fence?
@worn rain
What staircase
I personally like corral fence and log incline more than others
Because wood is easier to match than metal
Idk what theme to make my island
You don't have to theme, you can just make it up as you go along
If anyone would like some inspiration I’m happy to open my island for ya! My island is far from perfect nor finished but I have some cool spots here and there ^-^ ( Send a DM )
aye im in!
You can come to my island too, just DM me
Working on my island and made Kiki her own corner
Anyone else move their villagers house a million times trying to figure out what area looks best and you end up wasting sm money cause same
@woven drift Maybe for the fences you could use lattice fences, i want to do an outside library also and i'm planning to use these
@woven drift your design is incredible! 😍 I love it so much
I moved all of mine onto the beach and used solid color patterns on the ground to see how it would look with everything around it (fencing, plants etc)
I am using lattice fences all the time lol
@woven drift your design is incredible! 😍 I love it so much
@woven drift Ty :)
@tidal geode I would plan ahead since it’s pricy and time consuming to move everyone
Place 4x4 patterns on the ground to build around it and get a feel for how the houses placement would feel
how do people design mazes lol
My island looks like garbage and somehow I’m a five star WTF
same
@junior berry by unlocking terraforming you can put down paths, and then you can use nook miles to unlock waterscaping & sand! So, once you have those you Can go near your beach and replace the grass that’s near the beach with sand to extend your beach, but you can’t minimize or move your beach is that’s what you were asking! Hope this helps!!
im at 2 stars, i dont have any outside deco i really like lmao
problem is that you cant hit the edges with terraforming so there will always be agrassline
^^^
Essentially AC wants to keep the island looking as island-y as possible on the outsides so I’m sure that’s why they did all that! I don’t really find myself at the beach much unless I’m at my campground or gathering my star fragments!
i just blocked off all my beaches with cliffs
@pearl topaz I’m terrible at planning it out so it’s just a mess atm
my island is anightmare to navigatet
any ideas what to do w the entrance/shops? ignore the river lmao
Oh wow looks pretty cool actually lol
Love the name and your name 😂 I was actually originally going to call my island Hell and name myself Satan 😂
@rare wasp may i see more of your island
there is no enjoyment here
Right up my ally
mission complete!!! 🙂 that took days!
Cute!!
Somehow mine all just ended up at my campgrounds which works perfectly for me
how do you force stone spawns? just cover every other possible location?
^ yep pretty much
oof sounds like pain
use fences, because the space around them gets blocked
so you have to do it like Fence X X Fence X X Fence where Xs are blanks
You can chance it and keep destroying them untill they just eventually get to a location you want but that would take forever 😂 ^ that method is better
i decided to do it after terraforming.. and it was a PAIN, even after flattening my whole island
I’ve really been struggling with the layout of my island, no idea even where to start. The amount you can do/create is a little overwhelming😅
Also true but 80 stone each? Ouch 😭
yea not fun
nah, its so much better having htem right in front of my house, first thing i do when i start my day is collect my rocks 🙂
and i have them fenced in so no one can break them
@vocal summittake your time and really figure out your vibe you want! Take it little by little and day by day so you don’t rush and ruin it all! And go to other islands for inspiration / YouTube video tours!
i wanted all my rocks in one place, for easy farming 🙂
my island rating is gonna drop back to 3 once flick comes
Oh m6 god hahahahaha
commander, ive literally reorganized, and moved EVERY building 3 times so far
My*
have fun w it
^exactly!
rantulas
Why
ive caught probably like 14 bugs so far. im all about that terraform gameplay
I’ve moved a few things around, and then been like ‘nope no noty’
cease
Is there a limit of how many bridges and inclines you can have???
8 bridges 8 inclines
Thanks
<@&494448231036747777> help
Ffs man stop
bro you are the reason people hate on fortnite players stop being toxic
@hearty pebble
:c
thank
Sorry friendos
thx
Ty! 💖
I was in the middle of dealing with another fire
Ty
@copper sand Ping the Nooklings role, that's the mod role
do you guys recommend to just get rid of all trees and replant them later when terraforming?
ye thats what i did
@idle mica appreciate it! 💫
yea its way easier to just rebuy them from nooks
trying to form around stuff is pain
and you get miles for planting anyway
..... i just.... replant them first( (but it took like the whole freee space)
then moving them back
and eating turnips zzzz
@queen harbor oOOOOO
ill just keep my bamboo
omg thats right.... its only when theyre grown they can be one space
❤️
oh no
This took me like a week, I’m still not done... and I’m already thinking of changing it completely to a completely different vibe! So everything is up to you guys on creativity, aesthetics, where things go etc.
oO
damn its venice
sprout as in the two leaf or a little stump?
MARZ! holy crap
This took me like a week, I’m still not done... and I’m already thinking of changing it completely to a completely different vibe! So everything is up to you guys on creativity, aesthetics, where things go etc.
@copper sand that looks amazing!! do you have any screenshots of the actual island?
nah like a medium size tree
omg that looks so cool
What y’all think of the little books cranny layout
not the sprout
@alpine cape love that entrance to your island!
@vernal panther I don’t but I can surely take some for ya! Or you guys are more than welcome to come visit anytime!!
i just turned off my switch, but imma dm you so i remember to do it when i wake up
Okie dokie!!
@copper sand I'd love to visit sometime! though i should be sleeping right now lmao
Rona got my sleep schedule fubared... im about to pass out at 7am in the morning
i'll add you though?
is an orchard worth having at this point in the game..
which one do ygs think I should use?? I can’t decide lmao
I should be sleeping too lol. I’m not on right now but my gates are open 90% of the time so you guys are all welcome!!!
second 🤔
which one do ygs think I should use?? I can’t decide lmao
@brisk minnow
is an orchard worth having at this point in the game..
@queen harbor not really imo, unless you're doing it for aestethics
@queen harbor orchards are more visual than anything really
hm alright!! ty!! :DD
only way to really turn a huge profit is turnips
yeah.. i might consider making a small one
@vernal panther I tried the orchard look and ended up just throwing all my fruit trees into the campground area
i only turnip for bells
@vernal panther I tried the orchard look and ended up just throwing all my fruit trees into the campground area
@copper sand i don't have a single fruit tree lmao
i have an orchard of like 12 of every tree, it looks nice, imo. nice and tight because i never farm them.. just have it so when newbies visit then can grab what fruit they are missing
or flick and rantuals
@vivid flame you can spend like 3 hours to catch all tarantulas unless you are lucky and got tarantuals island((
@vernal panther oh my goodness!! I’ll bring you one of each if you like?
i had a money tree forest.. and yesterday i invited a bunch of random people to my island off twitter and discord because able was selling the royal crown.. and someone shook the entire forest down
does anyone have a restaurant/bar they could show me?
im talking like 30+ money trees
@vivid flame nice!! I want my next island to just be full of all types of trees everywhere on the island so I can just farm fruits for money
i was outside letting my doggos out and came back and was just like WTFFFF.. end session
@copper sand nono, i have fruits, it's just that i like cedars waaaaay more. thanks though!
i should get a small orchard going
i have an orchard of like 12 of every tree, it looks nice, imo. nice and tight because i never farm them.. just have it so when newbies visit then can grab what fruit they are missing
@vivid flame Can you show your orchad? I wanna create it but so far it doesn't look good(
@vivid flame that's awful!! if it was on here you may have been able to report them...
@vernal panther I love cedars!! I use them on my campground to give it more of a campy-not a word look
@ornate mortar
Oh my gosh I love that room!!
im not even sure where they got my dodo code from cause i posted it on my twitter/fb and multiple discords... im hella rich so i wasnt really sweating it... i had it for the looks not the bells. lol.. so i just chopped em all up and started over
@copper sand i'm making a city and i use them on the sidewalks! they look amazing in this game
I can’t wait untill winter 💖 cedars look so cute with snow on them
oreo, my switch is off, but send me a dm and ill send ya snaps when im back on
its pretty basic, but it works 🙂
Anyone have any clubs done ? 😮 or like dj area ?
yeah when you post your dodo code publicly be prepared for griefers like that 😦
@vivid flame ok )
I got a tag in there...
@outer onyx there was a spammer a little while back but it’s all clear now! Ty though 💫
slow poke 😛
fortunately the community here is respectful and i've never had anything bad happen with my island
Ahhh- alright!
❤️
the ac community is generally very chill
@amber silo same! I’ve had nothing but nice people come check out my island and it’s so lovely to meet new nice people!
hi guyss!!
same, which is why im gonna assume it was off my twttier
Hii grae!!
i love when someone comes over for a trade and they ask if they can stay and explore the island ✨
if they dont do that, they are sus
i really wanna explore more islands! once mine is done i wanna take people on tours
beasts all over the shop
I love seeing what other people do with their islands
right now i dont like people staying though cause its a messs
beasts all over the shop
@frozen axle oh my god that's amazing
I’ll never bitch about how tedious virtual waterscaping is again. IRL has a much slower progress rate!
@frozen axle I love that lol
Re orchards, this is my small one, it's only 3 of each tree
So cute wee
pfft. buck up @versed wadi get some dirt under them nails! haha
aaah, i like orchards but they take up too much space
how do you get the off color trees?
he's a time traveler 😉
Hewwo 🥺 does anyone have an area incorporating their dj booth ? Like a club or something lol
It's autumn in my part of the world, so it's natural
@frozen axle it's autumn
or she
ahh
Im in the southern hemisphere actually
ahhhh g'day mate
ayee southern hemisphere gang ✨
Need ideas for the weird little sticky out bit of grass that’s so awkward 🥴
me too!! southern we get mushrooms soon!!! im so excited
I was gonna add a layer of cliffs and put a lighthouse up there
Plus a bench and the standing binoculars
Any ideas of how to use Golden Tools as decoration?
That’s a good idea @blazing night
Single layer of cliffs, display the tools, put fences around them, Batto?
karaoke ocean side bar, where all the villagers can sing outside on the peninsula underneath shooting stars 🙂
ive also got something resembling the hunter's dream
to bubblegum, obvi
use golden tools instead of fences
I’m really fighting the urge to delete my entire island and game and start over!! 😭
flex your wealth
Oooo @vivid flame thats pretty good too
could anyone with a 5star island come visit me and tell me what i could build on my empty spaces
I have an old city town feel to my island both ideas are great
depending on where your lil thing is.. mine is in my upper left corner, so its perfect at night
Almost done with the entrance to my island 🙂
i wish you could move the plaza and airport... and pier... or at the very least just change the airport color... i want green 😦
Other idea was cliffs, a stone well, a dropped fossil for bones, fence it off so no one can get in
It's where Timmy fell down the well. He didn't make it.
I just wish we could rename our island lol
no lassie
Please if anyone wants to visit and help me with design ideas for my island, feel free to do so
my code is 6WC2C
Now I gotta delete my entire game for a fresh start! Knocking down all my stuff and starting over would be much more work than just deleting and starting fresh
i dont know how to get to 5 stars lmao im currently at 2 but it doesnt feel like im at 2
@copper sand oh my god good luck with that
Lol it’s filled in with brick atm
i almost did that after finding out about the different islands and how you can change your river mouth locations
@vernal panther goodbye Atlantis theme hello.... hell? Witch themed town?
Hell! Hell!
but i got the lil island in an island for my starter and i like it
i'd love to see that
halloween is gonna be fun
I’m kinda feeling the hell theme too! Besides, witches go to hell right? I could just blend both in.
well, unless they get burned i think?? haha
I wish we could plant creepy looking trees or dead trees, not sure how I’ll have trees look creepy in hell.. and I’ll need them for reasorces.
Hmm, what about leaving a bunch of tree stumps laying around
im hoping they add burning bushes or trees for halloween
i really wish bridges could span cliffs
that would be awesome
Tree stumps and campfires and tiki torches
or go sideways @frozen axle
Outside of Floor Lights, Manhole Covers, and Leaf Piles are there any other items that can be placed on the ground and walked over?
yea, just having them restricted to water is kind of pain
i think we can all agree the first thing they need to add/fix is being able to buy/craft multiple things at once
good lord.
and the airport dialogue
^
@blazing night @vernal panther yes yes and yesssss!!! Lots of fire!!!
theres so much stuff thats suboptimal and its just a wee bit aggravating
Make sure you get Phoebe in her proper house too, she uses lava flooring
I'd wish they trashed the entire online and started over...
I’ll have to tt to october and farm balloons and stuff to get lots of spooky decor
why can't we help our friends build their islands
actually yea, just give us dedicated servers and id be more than happy to ignore all the other flaws
thats all i want
client side hosting is the devil
even if they are best friends, its stupid you cant "decorate" when people are over
but they can still remove your custom flooring
They should just add in permissions so you can grant people perms to decorate or landscape with you
by accidentally hitting b
Imagine terraforming and decorating with friends!! the dream
i thought your name was SassyStan for a second
We Stan being sassy hahaha
stan is very sassy indeed
@copper sand just start in october! easy
Today is going to be a big project. Remodelig like half of my town.
also when i heard about the online multiplayer feature, i had my expectations too high cuz i thought you and your friends could live in one island
Idk.. once I have my mind set on something I gotta do it or it’ll bother me. I’ll have to let you come visit before Atlantis gets deleted 😂
how can you guys just delete your islands i can't imagine that with 400+ poured in
same
do you not like it?
but i guess time travelling would make progress faster
But I’m over it already!!
that looks really cool
LOL i solved the issue by getting a switch lite and a second copy
I want something more fitting for me plus I messed up the name! Don’t get me wrong I LOVE the island!
@copper sand that looks amazing, would love to visit before it's gone for good 😔
@vernal panther I’ll be getting on soon so feel free to come over!!
sure, let me know!
if it’ll work, a lot of people get a error when trying to come :(
my main town is super modern, my second town is nature
my island's map looks awful lmao
your layout is lovely, kudos to you for your creativity & effort! @copper sand
i also FINALLY found Raymond in a campsite so i can't delete lmao
!!!
nice!!
@wild cave thank you lovely 💖 you’re free to come see it anytime!!
i just gotta work with what i got
woah i spend like 170 nook tour tickets and still no raymond(
man if only friends could help terraform your island
@north saddle literally the dream to be honest
here's a pro tip: campsite gives you the personality you lack. i went through 14 smugs before i hit raymond.
also saw julian once
It’s true I got doc from them he’s so cute, finally got him to kick out cróque
how could you leave house spot uninhabited for such a long time? 🤔

@queen nexus no wonder i keep getting jocks’s & uchi 😭😭
Oh camp is different. u can get a camper with a full town.
also saw julian once
@queen nexus he was my first camper 😅
Oh camp is different. u can get a camper with a full town.
@queen nexus 🤔
i had no one((((((
since i hot 10 villagers
*hit
my beachside café restaurant!
its very random. but yea, thats why i can't delete my island even tho it is 5 star hot trash garbage
@wild cave oh my gosh!!! It’s heaven!!
my beachside café restaurant!
@wild cave cute!
i have remodeled my front SEVERAL FKING TIMES i can't settle i have too much space
@queen nexus how??? i have zero space
thank you guys 😊!
my town hall is far back
thats rare!
i did a front waterfall -- took up too much screen
@wild cave If the rumours are true and Brewster gets a stand alone coffee shop, will you put it there or have it somewhere else? i believe the rumors are true, museum can’t fit a coffee shop and he’s being hinted
i did a bamboo garden -- felt it was too cliche
all of the "too much japanese island" really got to me lmao
@queen nexus same. i just hate seeing the zen fence now
but you know what its my shitty island so i'll just embrace the cliche
@wild cave If the rumours are true and Brewster gets a stand alone coffee shop, will you put it there or have it somewhere else? i believe the rumors are true, museum can’t fit a coffee shop and he’s being hinted
@copper sand i had no idea that was a thing omg❤️ but if its true i’ll definitely have to do some adjusting! hopefully he wont be one of the visitor npc’s and he can actually have his shop posted on the island
i swear 90% of people have a zen garden somewhere on their island
also isnt a zen garden mostly made of rocks and sand with barely any plants
I don’t think he’ll be visitor luckily! But I’m so excited for whenever he gets announced, I’m thinking fall or winter because of cold weather and coffee
i dont have a zen garden but i do have a cliche bamboo forest / bath house
@queen nexus same same
well you gotta have the bamboo somewhere thats for sure
I've got a couple places that the roost could go, thankfully
bamboo just feels out of place if you dont theme it
i seriously wish the roost is a separate building and not a part of the museum
Secret pond
If you like it that’s ok guys, it’s your island do whatever the hell 😈 you want!
I hope Celeste gets a stand alone emporium? What’s it called? She was always part of the museum but I don’t think they’re gonna do more to the museum anymore
though I do hope they bring back the nook mall...
if there's more buildings im gonna cry, i don't have any space left
Just as a nook shop upgrade in the future
https://pbs.twimg.com/media/EVvQlGPVcAAh3uR?format=jpg&name=large my layout pre raymond
omg looks good
they are both very different. i have a switch + switch lite
Must be nice 😂
Woah lucky i have a switch lite
get that second town
I just ordered my sister a switch lite so we can play together without doing the follower and leader thingy cause that gets annoying
LOL you can terraform for her
But she will probably have me design her island.. so here comes the work lol
Lmaoo
and satisfy the thirst
@queen nexus yeah she’s gonna want me too 😂
And I’m ok with that! I’m kinda creation crazy so it’ll be fun
i deadass like my second town more and wish i could move it to my main switch lmao
Does anyone have any Japanese inspired islands, not entirely sure how to layout my island so I’m looking for inspiration
check tagbacktv
Youtube has a lot of inspo
should I extand my river to behind the resident center?
These are the only spots I have bamboo, the house is Pekoes so it fits her theme
i only now realized that everyone does that and it free a lot of space
@blazing night so pretty 💖
Oof my island is full of trees like everywhere
Since its cottagecore theres lots of trees and flowers but for the cliffs ill probably change it up a lil
i really need hedges but i don't have the materials to craft them
@granite hemlock go to mystery islands! they have all the materials you need
@vernal panther thanks!
Can someone give me some ideas and inspo for decorating around Nooks cranny and Able sister shop? I wanted to do something like a courtyard/marketplace but I’m in a slump T_T
oh my that looks nice
Weow thanks guys! ☺️
Nice usage of the Ok Motors sign, I've yet to find a place I can make that fit
thank you!
i really like having ables on the second level ✨
anyone have.. ideas for island entrance
im tryna start making my island pretty and i think entrance is best place to start
the classic double waterfall
ahh yes, the classic waterfall coming from nowhere and going nowhere
the plaza is too close to it for that I think
no source and no end stream
Can i join someones island where shops are updated and open?
I spent so much time on making these rivers for fortnite island but I want something more organized

hey guys sorry for how messy this is but do you reckon rows of dirt look better for an orchard area, or fill in the entire area with dirt, or leave as grass?
also those rivers look lit
i'd say rows of dirt
My entrance is basic because it's close to the town hall, so I have Ables on the left and a small plaza on the right with my fountain
although youre gonna have to make the map upside down to have sweaty sands actually in the besch area and misty meadows in the mountains
yeah i think i like rows more but the fact the tree roots extend slightly out of the dirt annoys me
Yeah I was gonna keep it this way cause I love the fortnite map but,, I visited my friends island today and her island was so pretty and organized dkjflsjd
can i visit island for inspiration
@pine pilot If you have the piles of leaves DIY, you can always put some of them scattered around
i made this lil gym area on the beach and i kinda like it
I didnt even make sweaty sands bruh I skipped it
on the bitch lmao
BITCH LMAO
My entrance. It was inspired by briclyn forest on youtube
Cause theres only 15 buildings and theres more named locations in fortnite than that
oh man what a nice entrance
are you doing a foresty town train
tysm! and yes
besides, I can still have fortnite on my island by putting ghost or shadow outside of villager houses 
thanks for the angle now i can take a pic of my entrance
LOL
@blazing night that's an excellent idea! thankyou!
my vision is that when I redo my island I can make a nice entrance to my house and put gold roses and make myself look like I have net worth: all of it smh
they NEED to make terraforming easier
omg
I have no clue where to start on making an island entrance
that's pretty neat
thats so beautiful
nah thats just the filter
at your airport?
Whats your island theme?
i mean yeah airport but like..
My entrance game is lacking because of town hall placement, hence the straight paths
I have no clue,, what to do for theme,,
basically, a huge garden

everything is a garden
broo can i visit i love forest islands😔
ive only done the entrance for now lol
samee lmaoo im working on the left side of my island atm
ill let ya know when i get half way
✊🏽✊🏽
i keep seeing all these beutiful foresty islands and i completely regret making mine a city
the original thing i wasn't happy about w/my island was lack of trees. but now i'm trying to put them in, but in a man made city way
all I know is my island has to have fortnite and homestuck in it
I love both city and natural islands
my forte is nature themed because i hate symmetry in modern builds and you can pretty much just place whatever in a nature build and itll look nice lol
@north saddle is ur island named sharence after rune factory 3?
yes it is
@north saddle is it okay if i get the qr code for those stone paths?
I wonder if I can make my town feel more new york than Japan
if i place a statue of liberty everywhere can i call it a NYC island?
Lots of lights and wotnot
Can you guys send me your entrances I need inspiration!?
theres a bunch above scroll up abit
My work-in-progress museum entrance
Just 3 levels actually
Can’t wait to complete all the stone inclines. Will send another pic when done! But thank you!
they said inclines not levels
ohhhh i got it. Ya 4 inclines 😂😂😂
Im close to finishing my wedding area! And a fren of mine dropped a wedding wand 🥺❤️
I use 2 :00
mine are 7 wide,, bc of custom paths
Really depends on what space youre putting it on, some use three or four, but 2 is convenient since it wont take up much space xD
At the entrance it's a lil weird to do 3
anyone know any good red / grey brick patterns
Looks off center
LMAO I LOVE HOW I DELETED HALF OF MY TREES AND I STILL HAVE A FIRE STAR RATING
Anyone got any advice for my entry area? I'm really struggling with what to add
five*
Where should I put them? It feels a bit cluttered already but it's because my plaza is so close
I don’t think it looks cluttered because you’ve made it wide:)
@thorn kestrel i did some hedges and flowers at my entrance which leads you right into the town square, and below that is park/beach
this is my first AC game and i am super addicted
What do you think of my campsite
This is mine but I really wanna change it I’m gonna have a rich vally look
Oh my goodness that’s so cute @errant radish !!
You should add street lights
lol yall are so far ahead of me
Your campsite looks sick! I've been working on mine since yesterday
Thanks @woven drift
I wish you could add real beaches
I need street lights yeah
Eugh yours are all so cute, mines rubbish
You should add a thin river going from the top right
Whereabouts?
Just left of the clothes line
My island has many small rivers leading to a central moat around my house that you can jump across
Can you show a picture of your house?
Like this?
@thorn kestrel maybe the waterfall could lead into a stream
I’m too scared to put weeds because I want to get 5 star and I don’t think you can with weeds?
@north saddle that’s good. You should add some sort of stone path
@woven drift I have loads of weeds on my mountains and I have 5 star
so far im not getting any complaints from isabelle about weeds although im at 4 stars
Can I see what people did with their shopping districte for some inspiration? :0
can i move the camping tent?
Yes
Yes
man i dont know if i should even work on a shopping district for now
But it’s expensive
everything here is expensive
Sorry here’s my house
considering we dont know how many more shops are gonna be added
Anyone got any good inspo for like a grand house entrance
Other than the lily of the valley is there any other benefit to 5 star?

use up 4 inclines to get to your house
yo thats a rich move I like it..
ultimate flex grand house
@woven drift you are given golden watering can recepie
probably 4 bridges while youre at it
is there a source for japanese designs? the あつまれどうぶつの森 tag on twitter is REALLY good but it gets hard to navigate after like 20 tweets
and with that i mean layouts, not codes
you can search up japanese islands on youtube, youll get a ton of results
like, alot
oh really! i havent tried that at all
ah yes i can feel the sarcasm
no i mean it
max island uhh height thing is like 3 right
lmao
like for cliffs
you can get 4 but you cant go up it or place anything above it

Some areas of my island I'm quite happy with! 
I sort of have idea for my house now,,
god I am so excited
oh man that garden area is so pretty
not excited to remove all these flowers and trees tho
That’s coolio
I wish so badly that we could move the plaza
mood
@charred mica my able sisters is pretty far away from my cranny, I’ve hidden it in a cove
Although if I do my island and they then let us move the plaza I’d probably cry/scream
That's actually really peaceful looking
Yeah I like it
I need tips to make this area look more cozy/more of a cottage-core vibe
do you guys put fences around your villager's plots or did you let them be open in the wild?
I put fences round them, apart from my own house
@buoyant gate maybe hay beds, wooden buckets, barrels, garden rocks?
Shot in the dark there
@charred mica I'm gonna get the garden rock diy today from someone and I definitely would try wooden buckets and barrels:)
i really want to make like a cute mushroom place but i only have two mushroom lamps and a mushroom parasol. What else could i put in there?
@buoyant gate maybe you could try those wooden pole thingys idk what their name is in english lol
i really want to make like a cute mushroom place but i only have two mushroom lamps and a mushroom parasol. What else could i put in there? I was thinking crescent moon chairs but i can’t get them.
Anyone here have issues with where they let you build the incline and it not lining up? I really don't want to spend 50k just to move my whole museum one square to centered with the stairs. 😰
Can someone help me with some island layout and stuff, I can pay bells if you want just so it doesn’t feel like I want someone’s ideas for free but I just need help with ideas and like overall a layout, idk why but I just like blank out when it comes to this.
My tip watch a TagBackTV video on one of the 5 star island tours sure they look intimidating but just look at them and take sections you like then give them your own twist
Is there anything I can do to fix this? Its driving me instane!
Add more and round off the custom path?
Whats that island planner thing you can use
does anyone else have a hard time using custom pats
Hmm I’ll try my best but I really don’t wanna waste my effort on something I’m not sure about but I’ll try
@mint stone check the pin comments
I dont like custom paths because they can be kicked away. OCD no likey.
Well if you make a broken path then its no problem with the custom paths because even if a part gets kicked away its not that bad looking and you can fix it at your leisure
(So like a dirt path way mixed in with custom rock pathways to make it look old and broken)
i just feel like custom paths don't look good most of the time 😦
do holes count against island rating
But like my main issue ( and I’ve kinda stated this like 6 hours ago or something like that) is the resident services, like I’ve seen some vids and I haven’t seen like a resident services so close to the dodo airport so I’m kinda stuck with that. Also sorry for the long text
on pins it says our house is 5x4 thats uh length/width right
that guy terraformed his town to crazy levels tho
He said he never sees anyone's airport that close yet this video shows exactly that. Just saying its possible.
damn
That’s unfortunate
is htere a ridge limit
I feel like I need to restart all of this to get a good island
bridge
8
ah alright
You can do a 2 wide path east/west right in front of airport and then do a cliff waterfall entrance that opens up to rs @lean willow
do you guys think we will ever be able to transfer saves?
ya I feel a path leading up to the residential servants like from the bottom right corner of it to the airport could look nice
Wait so like is the entrance like a waterfall path and then it leads off to other places, sorry I have a hard time understanding a lot of these things
Developing 2 little picnic zones 😄 shrubs are still growing haha
And then the waterfalls arund the top pathing behind the residential sevaces
Ohhh ok thanks a lot
Also RS doesn't have to be the centerpiece of the island. You could make a grand entrance that goes somewhere else and branch it off to rs.
True give me a sec
Yeah lots of different options
What do you guys think of this for like an entry from airport centrepiece? Is it awkward? With water surrounding the entire thing
Well I’ll try to do waterfalls but it will take some time but a lot of these type of things take time
@frail geyser thats nice
Mostly the same idea
Foresty airport entrance is finally looking good now that the bushes have grown 🥰
@scenic blaze Love it ❤️
Ohhh that’s looks like a great idea Jenthemagical
It was just a rough idea working with what you got now if you will excuse me its 7am and I never went to bed
Ok thanks a lot
Lamp post
Remodeling and dumping all my flowers in this area randomly. It actually looks nice
I would probably leave it squared honestly to match the waterfalls edges
But looks great!!
Yes!
@lean willow I have the exact same problem and I honestly can’t find inspiration to make it look nice 😦
This is sort of making me want to destroy the plaza I have in front of resident services and make some sort of cliffside entryway
anyone have ideas for a sort of ghibli/japanese island? dm or ping me with some pics!!
I wanna start over but I’m too far into it now
i might re build my entrance, i want to make my island more wooden and foresty and like cottagecore kind of, what do you guys think?
@boreal patrol do u have only the map of this island ? Or u also have a video or something like this of the island ?
@scenic blaze i love your design! i’m currently trying to make an island with the same sort of aesthetics! <33 would you mind if i use your design for inspiration?? :D** **
@scenic blaze your island is foresty, should i make mine like cottagecore and foresty?
awwh thank you! <33 it’s really appreciated! i’m making mine based on my country haha (scotland, sucks animal crossing won’t rAiN all the time-) i might send a photo of a part in most proud of at the moment :D** **
Ooo please do!
made a little lighthouse section, any ideas on how to decorate around it?
should i make my island foresty and wooden? i think it would look really cute! react to this if you think yes!
is there a way to make the waterfalls go 2 high?
@half breach sadly not, as you cant build cliffs over the waterfall
Very foresty! Love all the cedar zak!
yesss!! scotland’s like that- and i’m currently looking for wooden items to match
thank you! still in progress hahah
damn thats unfortunate
There’s a lot of great diy recipes I use, if you need to fill out your diy catalogue it’s worth it to use the trading channels.
my first layout complete!
anyone with a cool nook's cranny set up? would love to get ideas
@fallow tusk its looks great!
has anyone here actually restarted their town
thank u!! @patent trail
several hundred hours in?
hell nooo
this is scottish woodlands that i’m basing my island on- any suggestions for items that would match? i’m looking for lamps, wooden like things so on-
tons and tons of cedar trees
i'm....thinking about it.
haha yeah :’) i’ve been eating tons of bells on saplings
If by restarting you mean emptying it to make it pretty then yes i just did @queen nexus
no i mean deleting it LOL
I considered it lol but i have too much good stuff
me too
I have if 200 is considered a lot of hours
I kept all my stuff by storing on my friends islands L
so many damn trips
what does restarting do? just wipe everything out so you can build or does it reset the game?
reset everything
daaaamn-
like as if you just started the game again
I restarted cause my resident services was deadass too close to entrance
🚶♂️
oooooh right
mine is okay- but it’s not centred wich is what i was hoping for phaha
got a better island now its just a bit further and i have a yellow airport and roses as native flowers 
ooooh!
kept same native fruit which is nice cause i love oranges
i have pansies as my native and pears
but i have every other flower and fruit- just breeding now
Zak my airport isn’t centered either which I think is good for a foresty theme because you don’t want to be symmetrical
ahh yeah- that’s what i was planing- i just have to move all my houses 😔
I kind of want a naturalish but also kind of modern theme.. mostly cause I am tryna make a big entrance to my house
My island isn’t done but you can see my entrance cliffs on the map here
its gonna have a fountain in front, and waterfall and 2 inclines,,
oooh!
i just hope this isnt like drawing where i see it in my head and cant actually execute it
:( i rly want this nice house entrance i see in my head
i like most of my town...i just hate the front.
do you guys think itd be a good idea to do my island cliffs in like layers
ooo! depends what aesthetics you’re going for i’d say
cuz im gonna have like, the 3rd layer (highest u can go) be just for my house
im still working on it but its in middle ish top
and then itll go down to layer 2 and layer 1
where everything else will be
I know this isn’t your question but I love your rivers! Really interesting
man I spent so long on those river sfljslfkfps
The water took is so difficult, I believe it
im sad cuz im gonna redo whole thing
Noooooooo 💔
Lmfao I’ve never played so I didn’t recognize
is there any point in keeping hardwood trees
max incline and bridges is 7 total right,,
8 of each
I keep hardwood trees for variation and they’ll turn pink in cherry blossom season
EACH?
yes, each
8 of each yes
wtf I thought it was combination..
I’m trying to do an entrance and idk about this one , it’s just I don’t have any space since the rc is so freaking close to the dodo airport entrance
any pictures of foresty, cottagecore islands i could get ideas from? even like twitter accs :))
here u go @granite hemlock
tbh I may also make 2 villagers have a high elevated house area
It looks a little unnatural, it might look better if you remove some random patches of the waterfall and replace with cliffs
raymond and 1 other
@fallow tusk thank u! that's so cute
Can some of y'all put your island maps on here i need inspo 🙏🙏🙏 pls
@fallow tusk also, could u craft me some of those panels?
