you know...i can appreciate what players do with terraforming and what they do with their islands. but i think its important to not feel like, OMG I GOTTA COPY THIS, and realize some themes players incorporate just won't work for you

Thank you guys 🥰

if you had 2 1 space waterfalls on the side on top pf the waterfall u have that would look nice

That’s the 4th level so unfortunately I can’t plus my island has too many waterfalls so I guess it worked out well 😅

I wonder if it would look better only having 4 houses in the center area, and moving the 4 to the lower level on the left (CD/1 2)

do you all have opinions on creating indoor spaces but outdoors?

woven drift
@jaunty obsidian yeah but I don’t know how to plan it out 😂

@rocky trail what do you like about your island? like..pick one or two things you like about the island, maybe the shape or something you built and then try to compliment it and grow outward

@woven drift mine is at the back of my campsite

I need help. I know this isnt my Island, but I don't know where else to ask.

snow flicker
Palm trees would look good
woven drift
Maybe a little picnic area? Or trees off course
rocky trail
@snow flicker the problem is that trees block the shops 😿 I did put some trees to see how it would look
snow flicker
Hmmm
jaunty obsidian
@rocky trail seating area or fountains
undone stirrup
maybe a market place
snow flicker
Bushes then
limber vector
my solution is always pretty flowers surrounded by hedges
rocky trail
But it’s a huge empty space. I think I’m gonna end moving all houses again
snow flicker
Flowers or bushes
jaunty obsidian
@rocky trail or since it’s near the shops you could add some stalls (like a market place)
scenic blaze
personally i think that trees blocking the view of some things adds visual interest, but i can understand if other people don't like that
undone stirrup
could someone send me a pic of their house exterior? need some inspo
snow flicker
@rocky trail Put flowers or bushes. Yeh that would look good.
limber vector
I usually only add trees as a background or on vertical paths
graceful charm
@rocky trail you could also make a cafe space
snow flicker
Or maybe benches and a fishing area
ember kestrel
@undone stirrup
rocky trail
Yes I think I’m going to put a fountain and try to do like a small shopping area

I have the entire left side of my island covered in flowers that I have to somehow pick up and put into flower beds and organize and it's rattling my brain 
woven drift
@queen nexus we cover the highlights 😉 we’re not perfect

I'm thinking if I have people water my flowers to get me the golden sparkles I don't have to have so many flowers to breed taking up all my island

and then have to move them two days later

when I was a kid I considered myself a professional gardener so I jumped into this game with the same expectations of myself but there's so many genetics and rules and types of flowers
queen nexus
i have a four stairway museum but i'm thinking of demolishing that so i can have inclines for other uses
snow flicker
And I thought the whole point of animal crossing is to enjoy it.
Welp
At least I enjoy myself.
woven drift
Everyone plays differently @snow flicker
snow flicker
I go on vacation to other islands a lot.
ember kestrel
I mostly had those flowers breeding to get the pretty blue and pink windflowers but now I think I have enough
so now I have to figure out wtf I'm doing with all of them lol

when you start the hybrid grind and end up with too many lol

I have no idea how to breed flowers

@woven drift yeah idk if you noticed what they said just now, but there's an 8 incline and bridge limit and I think I'm counting 9
mrchewy good sir... sell weeds to leif
woven drift
Yes i saw, but I was lazy so I probably used the same bridge
ember kestrel
save them all and get double
woven drift
hey guys, i was wondering, how many weeds can i have on my island without isabelle telling me about it?
snow flicker
Wait wat
snow flicker
I know who lief is
woven drift
@thin slate i was trying to send an image of a zen garden i saw online but it wont load
scenic blaze
@woven drift i have a ton of weeds and she has never mentioned it to me
ember kestrel
I wish I had him when I was new, I got a lot of profit from my weeds but if I had him I would've been much better off
snow flicker
So lief is more addicted to weed than timmy? @ember kestrel
tame pilot
Should I put an island in the middle of the star lake or leave it be?
ember kestrel
yup, he pays 20 instead of 10
woven drift
@tame pilot you could, but you need a way to get there, maybe it will ruin the image of the map
ember kestrel
for sure
tame pilot
@woven drift I was thinking stepping Stones from the middle bottom of the star
woven drift
@tame pilot that would be cute! Maybe you could make a little picnic area on the island?
snow flicker
Yeah thats a good idea
woven drift
@scenic blaze um interesting bc at the beginning, when you're trying to get kk to come to your island and get 3 stars, she told me to get rid of it
tame pilot
@woven drift that could be cute
snow flicker
Maybe some benches and a fishing area.
cursive wren
do you guys have fruit orchards? im wondering if its even worth having 10x of different fruits
snow flicker
Nope
tame pilot
@cursive wren I find 6 of each kind to be enough
woven drift
I’m planning to add an orchard
rocky bridge
@cursive wren Yes, I have a small orchard consisting of 5 per each fruit
snow flicker
Im not bothering to collect non native fruits
ember kestrel
mine is simple, 4 of each. not the prettiest
cursive wren
can i see your orchards?
Got cherries
cursive wren
i feel like my orchard just eats up space and doesnt look very nice
tame pilot
@cursive wren I'm terraforming rn so my trees have been moved sorry. I do them in a 3x3 alternating grid tho
scenic blaze
i just mix the fruit trees in with the other trees on my island
snow flicker
Does anybody have breakfast lunch and dinner in animal crossing? That would be cool.
woven drift
How would that work? @snow flicker
ember kestrel
lmao excuse the filter
versed wadi
My orchard is carnage, I densely packed it and now it's too much hard work to harvest
I'm going to move them about the island instead

I would really appreciate it if someone with 4-5 stars could swing by my island and give me some constructive criticism! I have a dodo code ready I just need some help on ideas ahhah
wintry junco
Hi all I'd appreciate your opinion. Does the pond in the upper right corner look like a flame?
nocturne atlas
Any good house layouts? I'm planning to redo mine, I'd like to work with height a bit.
woven drift
Maybe make the left and right flame burst symmetrical
cursive wren
the asymmetry helps with the look of the flame
woven drift
That is true
cursive wren
else it'd look like a thicc trident or something
wintry junco
I tried making it symmetrical at first but it didn't look right to me
scenic blaze
@wintry junco i'm not seeing a flame, i'm sorry 😦 what i would suggest is looking up pixel art of flames and trying to imitate the placement of the squares, and then rounding out the curves afterwards
bold mirage
Make the middle one a tad more pointy maybe
ancient sorrel
I ordered a new switch so I have to start over. This is what I came up with so far. Any thoughts?
wintry junco
Thanks everyone I'll keep working on it

And flames are also really curvy and unpredictable, so try to add some more (vertical) curve to it

@ancient sorrel Maybe a lighthouse? And the empty space could be used for a swimming pool or hot spring?
I mean the empty space next to the town square
versed wadi
How long does an empty plot stay open for?

in my experience only the day that you set it
if you're gonna have an empty plot i'd plan to spend that day island hopping
or have a villager lined up

you could also leave space for a park in front of R.S.

@vestal gorge do you know what path would look best?

@deft stump start thinking about your rivers... the river mouths aren't going away so you should work on placing water before you run into issues trying to make rivers that are blocked by the cool new things you build
vestal gorge
@deft stump i would say brick for now, but you can of course change it later on

Which one?

i did my paths in brick and probably gonna change to terra cotta later

@pearl palm so I like all of them except the brick because even though I'm using brick, I think in this image the other two look better? I'd say stone especially if you use hedges
I'm pretty torn though

i was actually leaning towards terra cotta lmao

the rock garden is so nice 🙂

If space is in issue, Tuck your shops in nice little corners as opposed to building a big shopping district 🙂
woven drift
Also if space is an issue you need to terraform your island because if it’s properly terraformed to your liking there should be TOO MUCH space

@woven drift your island looks too uniform maybe try some corners and switch things up a little to get a natural vibe

You guys think this space could be good for a marketplace?

I'm making a diner outside, it's a work in progress though

@polar dagger lol interestingly enough I actually wanted to do a sort of mixture like that to more so emulate real life. Real towns are on plotted land with squared symmetrical paths that people work around and try to make look more natural and that’s what I wanted to do

How about a dog park? Get some mom's plushie+ dog house
In the space right next to the empty beach, you can do a BBQ area too with wood items?

@languid jungle you could try to trade for some seashell items to put around her house. they come in a pearly white that could look cute with the pink, but there are also other customization options for them

Good morning ~ does anyone know if I can put an incline directly next to town square or if I'll need to keep a block of space there?
wild cave
it depends on the angle!
lime tundra
made a lighthouse area
wild cave
it can be directly next to it if its side by side but it you want the incline pointed in the residence direction it has to have a space
patent sky
If I put the incline so half of it is in the space where the flowers are there, will it work? (I am moving nook)
wild cave
you cant place structures in half space increments but yes it will work
wild cave
i think 1 space will work
patent sky
Then the incline will be directly next to nook
winter phoenix
yes, also i’m not 100% certain the incline can go next to resident services, but @wild cave seems to know
wild cave
just place then incline first then see for yourself when you move the shop back

@light pumice what method are you using for your flower garden?
rich tundra
@patent sky is like to visit sometime!
winter phoenix
okay so you CANNOT build it next to the plaza
patent sky
So shifting between one square and two is a big difference in terms of construction
@rich tundra you can come after I'm finished decimating my downtown 😂
wild cave
Yeah I'm trying to figure it out beforehand because it also involves shifting this structure to the left as well
@patent sky luckily that wont be hard to rebuild. move the shop somewhere else, place the incline where you want it, remove 1 block length from that 2nd level, and see if it lets you place nook right beside the incline. you’re going to have to destroy that structure anyway if you want to place the incline
deep saffron
@tardy bridge I have a diner with a kitchen part if that’s good?

@winter phoenix ily, I'll assume then that nooks needs a space between as well?

@light pumice what method are you using for your flower garden?

@patent sky yes it will, so you’ll have to move Nook’s 3 places in total :)

Why does my island look so small compared to all of y’all pics 😁

@deep saffron Hmm I like the barrel from this angle. I’ll have to try that out because I was looking for something to put it on but most tables are too low for my liking. Thanks again for posting you have given me some ideas!

all depends on depth of view

Haha fair enough, I feel like my shopping center is my weakest part rn so I am redoing it, I literally placed the buildings purely for convenience at the beginning
winter phoenix
@lunar imp i have a theory for this, do you have ‘long’ pathways from one area to another by any chance?
lunar imp
@winter phoenix i cant even do an entrance 🤣
versed wadi
So what have we discovered? That the inclines need to be at least one space from the shops?
scenic blaze
they do
patent sky
Yes!

I missed a bit. Internet went down

@lunar imp I think we have the same 😭

And one space from plaza

Have no idea how to do layouts guys 😂 im just here feeling like a 5 year old kid compared to your islands

My theory is the plaza is too big to fit like on the beach or in another place and they didn't want to deal with it and went "just no move plaza!"

I bet it’s more a player testing thing. If you could start by placing your plaza x% of players wouldn’t do it and therefore be stuck in a limbo at the start of the game.
But doesn’t explain why you can’t move it later.

@slow dagger Yeah, if you terraform it

Lots of measuring...

If you want a perfect circle, there are only corner curves. Otherwise you’ll just need to look up some circles made of square tiles and copy that

Maybe u should measure your entire island and make a pixel version of that on computer or something and copy the pixel circle to your island

@lost sorrel how did you get canberra?
tame thunder
canberra can be a starting villager since she's uchi

Maybe vertiacal board fence for soccer field @brave crane ? I think it’ls the most natural cuz its pretty tall fence and other fences might look too artificial? Imo ofc
woven drift
@tame thunder okay guess i’m restarting my town haha
lost sorrel
My first villager @woven drift and i transferred all my villagers to my sister’s deserted island and transferred bac to my new island x.x
woven drift
@lost sorrel thank you!
brave crane

paper magnet
@woven drift I'm pretty sure you can still get sisterly villagers without having to resrtart your island!!
woven drift
Anyone want to help me design my island
@paper magnet I got the game today so it’s okay 😉 but thank you!
I'm really bad at terraforming and I'm willing to pay in bells for someone to make a layout for me
paper magnet
@woven drift Oh alright 😂 I was afraid maybe you've played for a while and were about to delete everything!
woven drift
@woven drift what are you expecting? an urbanized island, a more natural one?...
lost sorrel
This was my island theme before, but i decided it wasnt unique cuz everyone else was doing zen asian ish
But i regert 😂
deft stump
just finished my entrance area!! would i look best for my villagers house to go where i circled or would they look better somewhere else??
woven drift
A more urbanized one I'm willing to pay 700k bells
tame thunder
if i get another food-based villager on my 2nd island i might just make it a huge food court because i already have frita
woven drift
Oh wow everyone is doing a theme
More if needed
I’m just trying to make my dream community
azure drum
any zen garden inspiration??
woven drift
@azure drum
Woops
Wrong pictures hahaha
@woven drift My island's basically a "mix" of some european areas if it helps: the main city (south) is like an industrial English city with lots of bricks stuff (Manchester, Leeds, Liverpool...) while the marshland west of it is based on Spanish coastal swamps... idk
novel yarrow
We have a bank with that logo
lost sorrel
Btw, is that map creating thing accurate in map size? Does anyone know?
woven drift
@azure drum second try
azure drum
Ooo ahah thank you
woven drift
However, I got some empty areas (circled)
Thank you for the advice I'm gonna try using that island designer website for it I really appreciate it
@lost sorrel i think so, but the template shown is not one of the starting templates
fierce dune
@lost sorrel love the use of simple panels. I thought you were able to hang something on them at first until I realized the cedar leaves were poking through lmao
lost sorrel
Ah... so i measured nook’s cranny was 7 square long, so in that map emulator, it would also be 7 square pixels?
tame thunder
it's 7x4
lost sorrel
Me too @fierce dune idk y we cannot
woven drift
@lost sorrel yes i believe so
lost sorrel
Ooo thats great....
woven drift
I am using it to make the terraforming process less intimidating
Sometimes I think I messed up my island with terraforming...
dawn cave
@deft stump This is what I've done - a residential area on the left side. Maybe it'll spark some ideas for you!
deft stump
@dawn cave thank you!!
lost sorrel
I really wish best friends can help u terraform :’D ahaha
woven drift
@vocal fossil why?
wicked drift
how does this little beach patio look?
desert swallow
Is anyone who doesn’t time travel feel very discouraged about their island? 😭😭😭
woven drift
@wicked drift nice!
topaz turtle
All the time ^^
eager echo
I’m in the process of moving building around but what would you guys recommend I do with the rivers. Should I leave it like that?
long smelt
Can anyone send pics of what their entrance looks like, and what in front of town hall looks like? I need inspiration
woven drift
Idk, it feels too much artificial. I like the contrast between the urban area (in fact, I named the "city" of my island New Manchester lmao) and the countryside and natural area, with only one residential borough northeast, but It'd be better If there was a beach terraforming...
dawn cave
@wicked drift what is the towel item? pattern?
woven drift
@woven drift hmm i get that... Well we’ll see where my island goes
wicked drift
@wicked drift what is the towel item? pattern?
@dawn cave its a beach towel you can buy
lost sorrel
I blocked all the beach waters and deleted all rivers so all my villagers only have 1 place to fish >:)
dawn cave
