[ivory salmon]

Just want to share my friend's Harry Potter-themed island~
https://youtu.be/wpRwPbrMcoQ

[patent sky]

But where do they sleep

[rough pasture]

Any recommendations on what I should do with my island. I have 2 large areas and 1 smaller that I don't know what to do with.

[patent sky]

Do they sleep??

[woven drift]

The back room

[rapid fog]

@slate patio cupcake tree :'o

[hearty crypt]

ahh i thought a cypress bathtub would look nice here, like what lulu suggested

[drowsy shoal]

Under their desks? haha

[warm dew]

Any recommendations on fencing that small area for a DIY workshop?

[humble echo]

Haha ofc not

Sleep is for the weak

[brittle isle]

okay nvm omg it's stupid big so i can't get the angles right @drowsy shoal

[patent sky]

@warm dew corral/country/simple/tall board one/barbed wire

[drowsy shoal]

okay nvm omg it's stupid big so i can't get the angles right @drowsy shoal
@brittle isle Haha no worries! I have the same issue with mine, and mine fits inside one of the grid quadrants. I thought maybe since you have a cliff overlooking yours it'd be a little easier

[patent sky]

Or iron, literally any of those but it's hard bc I don't know what the rest of the island looks like

[sweet matrix]

my paths are so curvy lol

[brittle isle]

we in this together hhh. it gets too foggy sadly

[patent sky]

That is... very twisty wow, what do they look like in game?

[sweet matrix]

i think they look pretty,, for me at least lol. hold on ill get a shot

[drowsy shoal]

@brittle isle This one's mine 🙂

[winged token]

can i tour someone’s island for inspiration?

[rapid fog]

i just got a brilliant idea thank you cliff lovers

[brittle isle]

@brittle isle This one's mine 🙂
@drowsy shoal D: i love it PLEASE

[modern halo]

Thoughts

[patent sky]

I think they look pretty too! Just the uniformity of how everything curved threw me off haha, not a bad thing

[brittle isle]

it's so cute </3333

[patent sky]

Just haven't seen a map where everything is in sync in curviness

[sweet matrix]

prob not a good pic to show my curvy paths but

[brittle isle]

do ppl who know how to pull of curviness know how powerful they are

[drowsy shoal]

I have a small sun lake planned out too. But you gave me a great idea to have the sun rays be paths instead. I was a little worried how it'd turn out using water. @brittle isle

[woven drift]

I dunno how to make the straight oaths look interesting so I just do curves

[sweet matrix]

you can just visit my island if you want to see it whole lol i can get you a dodo code

[lime bane]

anyone have any cute entrance idea? i finally cleared my entire island so i have a clean slate

[tropic raft]

My island

[woven drift]

Guys I need ideas to put in that blank space next to the able sisters

[brittle isle]

I have a small sun lake planned out too. But you gave me a great idea to have the sun rays be paths instead. I was a little worried how it'd turn out using water. @brittle isle
@drowsy shoal so cute ! when using paths tho it tends to look very clunky just an fyi. i used dark dirt in mine and covered it in game up with roses

[humble echo]

@lime bane

[uneven void]

what are some good ways to do things for South-South river mouths

[brittle isle]

what are some good ways to do things for South-South river mouths
@uneven void what does ur map look like?

[patent sky]

Ah sorry I'm away from switch trapped by cat atm

[sweet matrix]

my paths are named after flowers and i put the corresponding flower to indicate which road it is lol 👌

[brittle isle]

my paths non existent bc i love the scatter + circle method but cant pull it off

[uneven void]

one sec I'll grab a pic, very empty @brittle isle

[drowsy shoal]

@drowsy shoal so cute ! when using paths tho it tends to look very clunky just an fyi. i used dark dirt in mine and covered it in game up with roses
@brittle isle Oof, I wish there was a better way to do appealing, thin sun rays lol. Thank you for the tip though. Honestly, I'm half prepared to scrap the sun lake when I get to it 😦

[livid dove]

anyone have any outdoor bathhouse/onsen inspirations?

[sweet matrix]

i just settled with curvy paths because i didnt wanna terraform much

[simple jungle]

I dunno how to make the straight oaths look interesting so I just do curves
@woven drift I generally do 4 lane main paths. The 2 outer spaces are custom paths/overlays and then I branch out of that path with custom paths I used as the border.

[patent pine]

does anyone have ideas for my zen garden,, i know it’s common so i was hoping to get input :))

[patent sky]

My life revolves around terraforming

[brittle isle]

@uneven void there isn't much space aa but the rivers meeting up in the middle behind the rss is ur best bet i guess

[hearty crypt]

@livid dove not mine, but i really like this outdoor bath idea :>

[brittle isle]

@brittle isle Oof, I wish there was a better way to do appealing, thin sun rays lol. Thank you for the tip though. Honestly, I'm half prepared to scrap the sun lake when I get to it 😦
@drowsy shoal i feel u omfgk the sun in my original plan looked so good n in game it almost made me cry bc it was so ugly n big

[uneven void]

Does anyone have a Cottage/Fairycore Island I can visit for inspiration?

[crimson reef]

Thought y’all would enjoy this pic of Merry being shocked by David and Ray being a goof in his swirl hat + meme shirt combo.

[heavy summit]

Get out of here with ur printed NMT

[silver sorrel]

@urban pier hey buddy i love the enthusiasm! Wrong chat though, thanks!

[urban pier]

[warm dew]

Corral or Barbed for DIY workshop?

[brittle isle]

Corral or Barbed for DIY workshop?
@warm dew coral !

[silver sorrel]

[drowsy shoal]

Coral for sure!

[woven drift]

LETS GET READY TO RUMBLE!!!!!!!!

[heavy summit]

Use both

[regal echo]

I really want to deck some villagers in that diy area

[drowsy shoal]

Barbed looks like it's gonna be a chicken fight arena 😦

[silver sorrel]

i want to beat up raymond

[twilit lintel]

Hosting island tours if you need inspiration! DM me!

[brittle isle]

gonna hand sherb's ass in that arena for wasting so much of my time getting him to leave

[woven drift]

I think I’m spoiling kabuki a tad bit

[drowsy shoal]

Oh, interesting housing layout @twilit lintel ! Smart way of hiding the inclines

[brittle isle]

he deserves !

[patent sky]

Inclines are life

[brittle isle]

Hosting island tours if you need inspiration! DM me!
@twilit lintel "long ago the four nations lived together in harmony..."

[woven drift]

Btw that ocean view spa idea I’m gonna stealI mean be inspired by it

[acoustic sierra]

my small cottage diner exterior, feeling very rustic

[patent sky]

dies in 8 incline limit

[woven drift]

dies in 8 bridge limit

[floral topaz]

i want more inclines

[brittle isle]

dies in no space to add bridges or inclines

[drowsy shoal]

More custom design slots too, ahhh

[regal echo]

I want unlimited inclines 😔 I have a very hilly town

[woven drift]

Next update add 4 more incline spots

[heavy summit]

I need more inclines, i already used all 8 for my museum ):

[patent sky]

@acoustic sierra omg I love this

[wanton sorrel]

Any ideas to improve the terraforming for this shrine area?

[humble echo]

Low-key want more island space

[sweet matrix]

tryna make some weird garden layout

[brittle isle]

i want...shampoodle

and quality of life changes

[drowsy shoal]

Honestly, I also want more villagers. I would kill for a DLC island expansion update for more structures and villagers. But Nintendo would never

[brittle isle]

tryna make some weird garden layout
@sweet matrix love it !! looks v nice

[acoustic sierra]

@patent sky tysm 😌

[patent sky]

I want to buy 50 customization kits at once

[heavy summit]

But shampoodle is the opposite of quality of life

[woven drift]

Exactly

[sweet matrix]

thank you ! @brittle isle 🥺

[brittle isle]

no </3 it makes no sense to be able to change ur entire appearance in a mirror so i like the idea of shampoodle

[patent sky]

@wanton sorrel make it less square?

[heavy summit]

But thats the quality of life change, u do it fast and instantly and anywhere if u bring a mirror

[hidden kindle]

@heavy summit what is your new island theme? are you still tearing down the jail house? ive been away from this channel 😂

[brittle isle]

i dont want that quality of life change then i want to be able to craft in bulk and streamlined multiplayer

[patent sky]

No I wanna march over there like I do every time I walk 2 miles to mail a letter

[wanton sorrel]

@patent sky like a path with the cliffs?

[silver sorrel]

oh no i just realized something...

[heavy summit]

Nah i tore down my jail

[woven drift]

I’m so sorry Rora

[sweet matrix]

yall give me some flamethrower real quick i wanna get rid of these flowers, i hate digging them up one by one 😩

[spice wigeon]

made a lil drink area in front of the beach 👁👄👁

[patent sky]

@wanton sorrel hit the square edges with your terraforming tool again

[tribal pelican]

So this is my layout for the villager homes, but I hate it now. Please give me inspiration 😂

[heavy summit]

Doing trench warfare now

[woven drift]

Less grid like

[scenic herald]

I’m gonna be moving things around a lot (esp villager homes) but... anyone have any good ideas on how to make my water look...... not so blocky?

[silver sorrel]

if im gonna make bikini bottom authentic, the ENTIRE FLOOR IS GONNA BE SAND, OH NO...

[brittle isle]

@tribal pelican its pretty! i would change the color scheme of the flowers though

[silver sorrel]

my suffering isn't gonna end lmao

[hidden kindle]

Doing trench warfare now
@heavy summit thats awesome. i saw someone asking for a tank in the furniture trading channel to do something similar. too bad there aren't any tanks 😂

[brittle isle]

if im gonna make bikini bottom authentic, the ENTIRE FLOOR IS GONNA BE SAND, OH NO...
@silver sorrel .....get out

[hidden kindle]

it looks sooo good

[crimson reef]

@wanton sorrel maybe add some bamboo/bamboo items?

[tribal pelican]

yea im just growing some better flowers first. kinda hard and impatient

[wanton sorrel]

@patent sky ooh better?

[heavy summit]

U dont need tanks, u got war jeeps

[woven drift]

Ah yes war jeeps

[sweet matrix]

there’s like nothing near my resident services area because idk how to work it at all 😭

[silver sorrel]

actually if I really want to go all the way i'd make a sand custom design too cus spongebob sand has that unique particle effect

[woven drift]

Roalds gonna be ridin them jeeps

[brittle isle]

there’s like nothing near my resident services area because idk how to work it at all 😭
@sweet matrix maybe curve the river around the rss ?

[heavy summit]

And long range missile attacks

[hidden kindle]

perfect

[sweet matrix]

oh yeah

[patent sky]

@wanton sorrel yes! Now hit the waterfall edge with the cliff tool one more time and do the same with your land pathways with the water tool

[sweet matrix]

forgot i have terraforming now since i basically ignored it lol

[silver sorrel]

@heavy summit you should get the combat helmet clothing item and spread em around

[heavy summit]

Heres my zen garden waterfall i blew up

[woven drift]

Ah animal crossing the relaxing game where I RECREATE WAR STYLE ELEMENTS TO PREPARE FOR THE GREAT BELL WAR

[heavy summit]

@silver sorrel hats dont work since its temporary untill its a house furniture

[tribal pelican]

ive removed all my bridges cause it just looked crowded, and added the grass inbetween the water

[sweet matrix]

is there a way to make terraformed river flow through the shore?

[silver sorrel]

can't you display them on mannequins tho?

[brittle isle]

is there a way to make terraformed river flow through the shore?
@sweet matrix nope u cant terraform there

[silver sorrel]

like make the helmets peek out of the trenches like people are hiding in them

[woven drift]

Welcome to my house pond

[sweet matrix]

rip

[heavy summit]

It comes out as heads not helmet on a full body

[crimson reef]

*not mine but what I used as inspo for my island

[sweet matrix]

just gonna have to reconnect it to another river then

[heavy summit]

Im planning to give 5 villagers on left side camo jacket and 5 on the right military/trench jackets

And middle is no mans land

[regal echo]

I love all islands except my own 😌

[silver sorrel]

@heavy summit put them in the trenches so it forces the perspective of it looking like people i am fully aware they are just heads lol

like with the walls blocking them

[acoustic yoke]

@regal echo I feel you

[brittle isle]

i love my island map but i hate my island cuz im shit at decorating

[stone blaze]

Omg same @regal echo I hate my layout sm I cry when I see it

[heavy summit]

I dont do force perspective, i do it from the visitors perspective

[brittle isle]

why cant i just keep terraforming

terraform myself a new island

[hidden kindle]

terraform myself a new island
@brittle isle i want to be able to buy another island if you have enough bells, no one moves in, but you can terraform and do whatever you want with it

[heavy summit]

I want people to visit my island and know whats happening without me telling them

[silver sorrel]

if i see a combat helmet in a trench i think i could put the pieces together lmao

[frozen scarab]

@heavy summit couldn’t agree more

[brittle isle]

@brittle isle i want to be able to buy another island if you have enough bells, no one moves in, but you can terraform and do whatever you want with it
@hidden kindle yes !! thatd be so cool

[brittle isle]

n it has rare bugs n fish n gyroids

[frozen scarab]

@heavy summit I hate when people are like please stand here in order to appreciate this. It’s stupid.

[silver sorrel]

that's legit not even what i meant

[simple jungle]

@sweet matrix maybe do like a park area over there since it’s like the main plaza? Put like fences around it and but amenities like a soccer field, garden, baseball field etc around it

[ivory matrix]

Any ideas on what i can put here😅

[frozen scarab]

@silver sorrel that was in general not towards you brody 🧡

[woven drift]

THIS FUCKING BRIDGE TOOK A WHOLE 30 MINS TO PLACE DOWN

[silver sorrel]

im bouta go sicko mode

[heavy summit]

I know what u ment, i just want to carefully craft it

[vagrant wolf]

@ivory matrix fountain maybe? or some seating :>

[brittle isle]

@woven drift felt

[unreal tusk]

does anyone have any ideas on how to decorate the outside of bones’ house? he’s like the only villager i’m struggling with 😭

[woven drift]

But it was worth it

[silver sorrel]

@unreal tusk fossils, cus bones

[frozen scarab]

New project

[scenic herald]

@unreal tusk i saw where people made a little graveyard for him outside and it was really cute!! maybe some black or red roses? leaf piles? kind of, like, "dead" looking things?

[crimson reef]

@ivory matrix fountain w/some benches, reading area, recreational area for villagers (like chess or go board) or a music area

[patent sky]

There's a rat looking skeleton thing I like

[normal onyx]

I’ve noticed how other people’s islands have long rocks on the back where their secret beach is. Mine doesn’t:(

[unreal tusk]

@silver sorrel @scenic herald omg tysm 😭

[silver sorrel]

np

[patent sky]

It's a fossil but I forget what it's called

[floral topaz]

mush lamps make me soft

[simple jungle]

@ivory matrix fountain. If not, board game area, if not that, tree surrounded by benches

[ionic pivot]

Does anyone live in the Southern Hemisphere

[silver sorrel]

at this point im really glad i duped golden shovels holy moly i have so many flowers to dig up

[crimson reef]

Mush lamps make everything look better lol

[regal echo]

my shovel literally broke after you said that

[floral topaz]

mush lamps cured my depression

[brittle isle]

im trying to make a mineshaft n bruh its so hard to make it look good

[ionic pivot]

Does anyone live in the Southern Hemisphere

[sweet matrix]

a quick run through my island in the making 🥺

[heavy summit]

@patent sky i can add a strategy room with a chalk board and place this item on a desk

[ionic pivot]

Bruh

[exotic girder]

@sweet matrix how did you get your enterance to say your island name

[sweet matrix]

Custom designs

[rigid raven]

^

[silver sorrel]

the entire war is just one large game of battlefield lmao

[heavy summit]

My uncle works for nintendo, thats how

[exotic girder]

That would take so long

[rigid raven]

you can convert them through the website thingy or make them

[sweet matrix]

You can use a website i think

[rigid raven]

oh! vinh! hows your island going?

[exotic girder]

I’ll pay someone to make one for me 😂

[snow seal]

My bf really came to my island dressed up as howl to my ghibli themed island 🥺

[heavy summit]

About like 30% done

[sweet matrix]

i means, its easy to make one 👁️👄👁️

[rigid raven]

ooo

[heavy summit]

I gotta terriform majority of my island to the max cliff tier just so my trenches can work

[unique marlin]

looking at everyone’s island is gonna make me redo my entire layout

[rigid raven]

My bf really came to my island dressed up as howl to my ghibli themed island 🥺
@snow seal aww! adorable

[unique marlin]

[crimson reef]

@snow seal everyone loved that

[vivid oasis]

That boy is a keeper @snow seal

[sweet matrix]

[exotic girder]

I don’t have a computer

[sweet matrix]

[heavy summit]

Welp ur out of luck start drawin

[simple jungle]

looking at everyone’s island is gonna make me redo my entire layout
@unique marlin I did and it was a nightmare even with me duping to get gold quick

[exotic girder]

I’ll give someone NMT to do it if anyone is interested DM me

[median bridge]

should i have a library or LACMA lights ?

[crimson reef]

Why not both?

[vivid oasis]

I have been tempted to design Welcome to Gayland for awhile, but i never have custom slots available 🤣

[median bridge]

no room

[sage pawn]

library!!

[patent sky]

Lacma library

[ionic pivot]

I’m horrible at designing plz help me

[patent sky]

No eye strain allowed

[median bridge]

Lacma library
@patent sky i love that

[sweet matrix]

just realized my island is 60% lattice fence 🤦‍♀️

[crimson reef]

Lol

[barren flower]

wrong channel, sorry!

[vivid oasis]

When you TT to get a bridge finished and see a rock invading your new space

[patent sky]

I have a permanently stunted tree because of rock spawn it's weird

[vivid oasis]

Omg haha

Im doing a rock garden in the very front just not really trying to get the rocks to move yet

[silver sorrel]

how do you even permanently stunt trees?

[tropic raft]

Got my first lily of the valley!!

[vivid oasis]

have something too close

[humble echo]

Yep

[woven drift]

any ideas on what I can do with this small space?

[ionic pivot]

If I had to design for dear life I whould die.

[patent sky]

It works tho (the pine behind the coconut)

[woven drift]

Rate this poor excuse of a pool place out of 5

[tropic raft]

U need more space

[silver sorrel]

3

[ionic pivot]

4

[tropic raft]

For the pool

[silver sorrel]

i'd diversify the flowers

[woven drift]

I’m doing blue and white for roald and aurora

[ionic pivot]

Has anyone watched beasties

Beastars I mean

[exotic girder]

I hate how I have so much ideas and areas put together but I don’t have all the items to make it look good so it’s like just dropped things that need tables and stuff lol

[rapid fog]

what's beastars about

[humble echo]

Yes I have

[patent sky]

Wait is that literally a bad word I'm sorry nooklings 😂

[silver sorrel]

lmao

did you get stung?

[patent sky]

You can make spaces work with less items if you align your color palette well

No it just insta deleted it

[rapid fog]

@exotic girder you can try nookazon?

[exotic girder]

Is it easy to navigate on a phone? I’ve actually never tried that aha

[rapid fog]

yes yes

[exotic girder]

Sweet I’ll look into that

[rapid fog]

oke have fun

[regal echo]

Terraforming is being delayed by singing villagers

[simple jungle]

@woven drift I would move the flowers, extend the wooden path, put fences up, and rearrange table chairs on top and bottom . Chairs leave in same spot and then deco on table

[bright shoal]

Anyone has inspiration for flower fields... I manage to complete breeding all color but idk how to nicely position them in small area (25x25)

[bitter inlet]

isn’t 25x25 pretty big

[patent sky]

It's big

[exotic girder]

Mine isn’t finished but I can show you it’s a tiny one with tons of dofferent flowers

[bright shoal]

For flowers it is not :(

[woven drift]

What path should I use for my museum area

Man, I was such a newb at trading when I started out. Gave away a real wild painting for 10 NMT. Now I need one badly and the prices are 😱

[bright shoal]

@exotic girder i am interested 🤗

[humble echo]

@woven drift me when I gave tower of pisa for 10 nmt

[simple jungle]

What path should I use for my museum area
@woven drift I saw this cool like gray stone square (one large one or 4 small squares in a tile). Made me think of like a botanical garden feel which would go well with a museum

[woven drift]

Ty

[patent sky]

I sold Stonehenge for 6

[twilit lintel]

Hosting an island tour I know how hard it is to get inspiration. I just wanna help! Dm me if interested!

[woven drift]

Now I feel a little better

[humble echo]

Oml

[exotic girder]

It doesn’t look great yet cuz it isn’t completed but I did every row 2 types every other

[woven drift]

We’re all on the same boat phew 😅

[prisma chasm]

I’m so happy with how this turned out!

[patent sky]

I'm so glad I'll never have to host a tour for people again if I don't want to 😂

[bright shoal]

@exotic girder cool.. I have so many flowers.. 😂

[compact wolf]

Just keep posting that link when people ask 😂

[exotic girder]

I feel that I got rid of so many to make my baby field

[patent sky]

You better believe I will 😂

[humble echo]

I can't wait for that to be me when Etce post his video

[vivid oasis]

🤣

[patent sky]

My favorite comment is "looks hard to walk in"... yes that's a purposeful design choice 😂

[compact wolf]

Love the sign you have for your market/bazaar @patent sky
They’re so unique!

[patent sky]

Ty!! I made all the kitsune signs

[bright shoal]

hyrid dumping site.. not even all in photos.... @exotic girder 😂

[patent sky]

Hot damn that's a lot of pink and orange

[exotic girder]

O.O that is in fact a ton of flowers

[bright shoal]

Gave away like 40 green mums yesterday...

[exotic girder]

However you do it it’s going to look beautiful with that many

[vivid oasis]

I used to have a huuuuge flower area until I figured out my villagers haha

[exotic girder]

All those pink and purple flowers are gorgeous

[bright shoal]

Cause why not... 😭

[light flax]

How often do lily of the valleys spawn?

[bright shoal]

Cannot fit all flowers by color in 25x25 area

[sage pawn]

why is the flower dump so pretty dsdffd

[vivid oasis]

Mine seem to be like like 1-2 days

[woven drift]

Black rose dumping spot

[sage night]

i made a little duck pond for gloria on the cliff i made, should i breed purple roses for her? it would match her feathers but idk, i wanted some outside input. i want her house/yard to have a dark glowy fairy vibe so im adding some mushroom stuff around there too haha, she gives me a witch vibe

to be clear im moving her house there

[bright shoal]

@sage pawn still need to organize per color and types.. 😂😂😂😂 That is why I am having dilemma... Cannot fit all colors

[simple jungle]

@woven drift not me. Stolen from inter webs. Used her dark stone series

[patent sky]

Just have an uneven amount of type/color maybe?

[bright shoal]

@sage night do it! Mix with other dark purple flowers.. purple pansy is nice too..

[vivid oasis]

What is the trick with sideways inclines?

I need to do 2 I think on the same area of cliffs

[sage night]

just look at the cliff from the side

[bright shoal]

@patent sky would it be nicer? mix than organize?

[sage night]

i might add some blues as well but im not sure if there are any light enough to match her eyeshadow?

[patent sky]

@bright shoal I personally would prefer that kind of variety but idk

Just make sure it looks like you did it on purpose

[woven drift]

Do you guys normally plan things out or design as you go

I never plan anything out

[sage night]

a bit of both, i kind of started off designing as i went and then that kicked me off into having a big vision for my island

[vivid oasis]

I havent planned it out

[livid dove]

looking for outdoor onsen/bathhouse inspiration

[simple jungle]

@livid dove I love your username lmao

[sage night]

@livid dove i dont have pics rn but i just put an outdoor bath + a garden lantern out on the pier and it's super pretty

[bright shoal]

@patent sky i take it into consideration 🤗 so it will showcase all color... There are 50 color in all types... Was thinking also separating basic from hybrids... idk.. 😂 But i still want the one line changing color transition type 😂

@livid dove real supahhh hero!!!

[humble echo]

@woven drift I designed as I go

[wanton sorrel]

What are good colors/flowers to go with orange cosmos?

[elfin patrol]

Is there anyway to relocate your airport???

[woven drift]

That’s what I’m doing and it’s nerve wracking

[sage night]

nope @elfin patrol

[vivid oasis]

Yellows and whites I think personally @wanton sorrel but that's also the combo I'm doing for a section

[humble echo]

@wanton sorrel black haha but I think everything looks good with black

[sage night]

@wanton sorrel black cosmos & black tulips

i really like orange + blackflower combos

[humble echo]

@woven drift how so?

[patent sky]

@woven drift idk what this "planning" is

[bright shoal]

@wanton sorrel orange tulip same shade of color too or yellow and pink cosmos for same type...

[woven drift]

isn’t there that website that lets you plan island layouts? I dunno what I even mean by planning

[patent sky]

Happy island designer?

[woven drift]

that’s probably what I’m thinking of

[simple jungle]

My biggest mistake was I planned but got too eager in terraforming. I ended changing my mind so many times. But I would just jump into your first project and then you tend to get more ideas the more you work on your first project/area.

[woven drift]

Ty! For me what I did was flatten my island, start with the entrance and work around from there

[patent sky]

Smash n crash

[bright shoal]

What i do is make a deducated area hahaha i am more of organize type of person so i want everything aligned 😅😅😅😅😅

@woven drift same but im left to right type..

[woven drift]

I’m designing from the middle outward

So the center of my island is higher elevation with flatter borders

[bright shoal]

Niceeee

[patent sky]

Im a "start in a random area and then start a second time in a completely different area and have multiple projects because I have severe ADHD" type

[winged cove]

i want to make my marketplace look more.. cottagecore but i have no idea what im doing wrong - some tips and tricks appreciated

[simple jungle]

I still do dedicated areas for sure. I would look up dimensions on houses and other buildings and I then put custom paths around an area to section that off.

[bright shoal]

@patent sky omg that's taste so much redoing layouy

[woven drift]

Here’s right now

[vivid oasis]

Idk why I'm struggling with my incline atm 😭

[simple jungle]

Like I looked up dimensions for my plaza and did the same for my other buildings

[vivid oasis]

It keeps saying I dont got enoungh cliff

[sweet latch]

someone help me idk what to do 😭😭😭

[patent sky]

Images aren't loading for me

[woven drift]

I thought it was just me!

[tight matrix]

They won’t load for me either 🥺

[floral topaz]

@patent sky same

[patent sky]

[compact wolf]

@winged cove
Try using some tree stump stools, wooden stakes, flowers

[burnt tide]

I have wayyy too many flowers right now and I'm not sure how I should organize them into multiple small gardens. Does anyone have any ideas?

[unreal cargo]

hey guys

[silver sorrel]

you could always just remove some flowers

[unreal cargo]

freeadam2020!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[compact wolf]

@burnt tide I pretty much just put each type of flower in different areas to get hybrids

[burnt tide]

I definitley will I just want to set up some gardens how I want and get rid of anything I don't use

[haughty fern]

I am currently moving houses because i just put houses randomly and now i regret that. I want to space out the houses by 5. Does anyone think its a good idea?

[burnt tide]

I spaced out my houses in two sets of 5 and I love them

[obtuse hawk]

Same

[haughty fern]

So by 10?

[burnt tide]

Oh duh haha no they're in two groups of 5 houses

[turbid wadi]

i have a 5 star island but a lot of empty space , what should i do with it ?

[haughty fern]

Oh haha

[frozen scarab]

Fill it

[turbid wadi]

yea ... but with what ..

[burnt tide]

flowers, trees, bamboo?

[haughty fern]

This is gonna take soo long and a lot of bells. I have to move like every residential house and its really annoying. I want to space the houses out by 5

[proper charm]

Current layout, what do you guys think?

[turbid wadi]

okay .. let me be more specific , with cottagecore theme

[silver sorrel]

🅱️ottage🅱️ore

[turbid wadi]

LOL^^

[burnt tide]

I'd say use some weeds, hyacinths and maybe like mossy stone path or mushroom paths

[silver sorrel]

i feel required to say that literally any time somebody says that word

[dapper sedge]

gray or white?

[silver sorrel]

@proper charm find a way to fill some of the open spaces

@dapper sedge honestly im not feeling either lol

[brittle isle]

gray

[dapper sedge]

@dapper sedge honestly im not feeling either lol
@silver sorrel fair so which lamp would go well

[silver sorrel]

cherry blossom lamp maybe? or a streetlight

[brittle isle]

not a lamp but the shell fountain would look cute

[simple jungle]

I am currently moving houses because i just put houses randomly and now i regret that. I want to space out the houses by 5. Does anyone think its a good idea?
@haughty fern I did plots of land 10Wx8L. Leaves room for fence, two chairs and tables, and one other outside deco.

[tropic raft]

Anyone want to come check out my island it’s almost finished

[haughty fern]

@haughty fern I did plots of land 10Wx8L. Leaves room for fence, two chairs and tables, and one other outside deco.
@simple jungle oh ok.

[quasi galleon]

Since it didn’t load earlier :c

[silver sorrel]

that's pretty dope

[woven drift]

It’s still not loading for me

[patent sky]

I had to restart discord

[quasi galleon]

My discord restarted on its own too it logged me out :0

Yeah I can’t see these pics

[simple jungle]

@haughty fern honestly make the lot and decorate it first before placing. That way you can “imagine” it and decide if you hate it or not and then change the plot size

[woven drift]

I’m on mobile so maybe that’s why? Idk

[rugged rain]

I'm on my phone and I don't see anything either xD

[empty lotus]

Confirming no images

[rugged rain]

Haha yep

[vivid oasis]

Im PC and it works now, so probably is just mobile

[silver sorrel]

nope im on pc and it aint loading

i think discord is shitting itself

[uncut lagoon]

What should I put here

[empty lotus]

Well I can see that 😂

[quasi galleon]

I can see that too lol

[empty lotus]

Images all seem to work for me now

[silver sorrel]

@empty lotus why?

[lethal flame]

The entrance to my shrine originally had a stone statue on each side looking towards each other, but it looks like somethings missing, should I make the right side like the left, or put something else next to the statue instead?

[swift garden]

@uncut lagoon I thought your switch was the sky of your game I got scared

[woven drift]

Hi! I'm looking for some individual(s) to come tell me how my island looks, it is half way done and has taken quite a long time. It's only 3 stars right now but it's major progress. Please be kind, but feedback is appreciated!! I'll dm you the dodo! ❤️

[empty lotus]

To celebrate the return of images here's my updated plaza 6 blocks from the aiport

[grim cosmos]

hey all you cool cats and kittens

[grim cosmos]

nice fly over

[uncut lagoon]

Anyone like this dining area

[grim cosmos]

that's pretty neat, well done

[barren flower]

does anybody else here have sections of their island inspired by video games/tv shows/etc they like?

[uncut lagoon]

Thank you

[grim cosmos]

hmmm

[lethal flame]

[grim cosmos]

mothra has a skyrim inspired area

[dapper sedge]

[barren flower]

oh nice!!!!

[uncut lagoon]

I put a grave next to marina’s house

[nova wraith]

I finished watching the walkthrough of Lulu’s island and now I feel super inadequate 😂

[dapper sedge]

wondering if i should toss away latice. cant seem to find lampa to flank it.. or what could work

[rugged rain]

Beautiful town! sees nothing
No just kidding, the images are back!

@whole oar Is that your town? Do you do visits?

[whole oar]

@rugged rain yes its mine (: im not doing tours/visits atm...im still working on it unfortunately)):

[rugged rain]

Ah okay, I see :) Looks exactly like something I want for my town in the end. How do you find the ideas to put something there and the other thing there.. How do you make everything fit

[whole oar]

however if you have a twitter follow me @knotty saffronhorizons bc i post a lot of my island content on there...i just made it 😅

[simple jungle]

@haughty fern this is how my 10 Wide (side to side) x 8 L (top to bottom) layout turned out

[rugged rain]

I will find you on Twitter!

[whole oar]

i kinda just go with the flow

do whatever i think fits best

[median bridge]

my island is a downtown/urban/city inspired. any ideas on what to put on the sides?

[rugged rain]

Just from the ideas in your head?

[obtuse venture]

Can anyone share their orchard island layout? im contemplating where should i place my orchard at.. 😩

[rugged bloom]

@median bridge you need a lot of utility poles and streetlamps, manhole covers, garbage bins, trash cans, cones, garden benches, and in general street furniture on your sides

[simple jungle]

@median bridge idk if it’ll work but I know you can push objects against trees. If fences are allowed around trees, I think trees would be cool on the sides. Dig one spot as dirt when it grows to an adult , it’ll cover the edges of grass

[patent sky]

Sidewalks!!!

[vagrant wolf]

@median bridge nani?! there's sparkles everywhere?! 😆 you could put some seating, potted plants, or some lights :>

[grim cosmos]

gnomes

[rugged bloom]

my island is city based and i have a lot of street details I don’t ever really see others do if you want to visit sometime I wouldn’t mind @median bridge

[median bridge]

@median bridge nani?! there's sparkles everywhere?! 😆 you could put some seating, potted plants, or some lights :>
@vagrant wolf was tryna get attention 🤣

[patent sky]

Or put like the middle dotted line thing

[woven drift]

Can anyone share their orchard island layout? im contemplating where should i place my orchard at.. 😩
I need ideas for Orchard as well lool

[median bridge]

my island is city based and i have a lot of street details I don’t ever really see others do if you want to visit sometime I wouldn’t mind @median bridge
@rugged bloom ya of course!! i would love to see yours as well!!

Or put like the middle dotted line thing
@patent sky thought about that but ive run out of qr code space 😢

[woven drift]

Maybe some parking spaces if you can find a path for that would be cute for an urban island

[vivid oasis]

anyone done a graveyard with lucky's house?

[echo umbra]

lmk if anyone has any ideas since my resident services is so far from my entrance 😭 i’m def gonna be redoing everything

[vagrant wolf]

@median bridge oooh or bikes and scooters

[patent sky]

McGibbon has a REALLY good one @vivid oasis he's posted it in here a few times

[vivid oasis]

😮

[whole oar]

@median bridge this was my island before i redid everything lol

[vivid oasis]

I must have missed it

[silver sorrel]

@echo umbra just decorate the areas around the entrance, don't tie it in to the resident services

[icy citrus]

Does anyone have any good ideas for island layout

[silver sorrel]

no

[rugged bloom]

my island never gets any hype 💔 i’ll never post it anymore

[icy citrus]

Lol

[patent sky]

[silver sorrel]

[woven drift]

F

[patent sky]

Peachy I've never seen your posts in here

[lapis pond]

do you guys reckon we're going to get more buildings in the future? i really want to flesh out all my paths and make my island look complete but i'm worried they'll throw in some new infrastructure with an update

[silver sorrel]

@earnest summit that's more villagers than you can even have lmao

[earnest summit]

@silver sorrel I know but it's for someone else

[rugged bloom]

I r e f u s e to post if I don’t get reactions that’s usually why @patent sky edelgard von hresvelg

[patent sky]

@earnest summit heres Ankha

[woven drift]

I like that you can kind of make your own buildings by creating separate characters and designed their homes

[earnest summit]

Tyty

[vivid oasis]

Oh gosh that Ankha is pretty, that helps me for her too

[patent sky]

How are we gonna react if you don't post tho, also sometimes things are moving too fast for people to react

[vagrant wolf]

do you guys reckon we're going to get more buildings in the future? i really want to flesh out all my paths and make my island look complete but i'm worried they'll throw in some new infrastructure with an update
@lapis pond definitely. there are some videos in yt that talk about there going to be an added cafe and maybe even kicks' or lief's own stand-alone shops.

[silver sorrel]

@rugged bloom legit make a post if we have advice for you we'll give you advice. Don't hide just because ur not gonna get a react lmao. Some islands are react worthy and others aren't. fact

[rugged bloom]

mine is react worthy
its r e d d i t worthy

[hallow glacier]

Oof lmao

[silver sorrel]

@rugged bloom prove it

[median bridge]

[median bridge]

@woven drift this is mine kinda basic ahahahha

[rugged bloom]

yes ty plus i hate ideas being stolen before my island is finished

[lapis pond]

@vagrant wolf good to know! people with already-completed are really gonna have to renovate a crapton if they make huge changes in the game... i'll try not to get too ahead of myself, i've been planning like four different full houses on mine omg

[rapid fog]

@median bridge are my eyes deceiving me or are the trees sparkly

[silver sorrel]

isn't the point of this chat to inspire people to make stuff similar to other people tho

[rugged bloom]

i mean
ig

[woven drift]

Low Table or Chest?

[median bridge]

@median bridge are my eyes deceiving me or are the trees sparkly
@rapid fog i took all my pics for my ig HAHAHA they all have the sparkly effect hehe

[vagrant wolf]

@vagrant wolf good to know! people with already-completed are really gonna have to renovate a crapton if they make huge changes in the game... i'll try not to get too ahead of myself, i've been planning like four different full houses on mine omg
@lapis pond i thought mine was completed until a few days ago. i completely redid my whole island and still am on the process of fixing everything 😆

[silver sorrel]

guarentee you nearly every aspect of any island has been done before already, unless it's something super new

[median bridge]

Low Table or Chest?
@woven drift imperial table 🙂

[silver sorrel]

in which case it will be stolen by hundreds of people within a day

[vagrant wolf]

Low Table or Chest?
@woven drift low table! :0

[simple jungle]

@woven drift low imperial table

[rapid fog]

@median bridge ohh LOLLO

[hallow glacier]

Low table!

[lapis pond]

@vagrant wolf oh wow! guess it's a neverending quest with this game for now.. i'm gonna uh. put my switch down and do some chores instead hAHAh

[rugged bloom]

@silver sorrel i got u then

[woven drift]

It’s been decided. Thanks guys

[silver sorrel]

[patent sky]

No one knows what a curiosity shop is so I guess im OK

[silver sorrel]

isn't a curiosity shop just like a shop full of weird stuff

@patent sky tryna rip off lmao

[sage night]

gloria's garden is coming along really well :)

[patent sky]

That's not a curiosity shop

[woven drift]

Made me pretty curious

[patent sky]

Well it is but not the type I'm thinking of

[manic lantern]

Removing the zodiac clutter. Instead going to box out the area and build a farmer market

[woven drift]

Well now we’re curious

[patent sky]

I'm thinking of curiosity shops of the times with freak circuses

There's one in my town that's why I made it in game

[silver sorrel]

so basically...just a bunch of weird shit...plus pietro's house

[simple jungle]

Guy idk what should I do with my entrance area? It’s offset to my plaza and close to shore

[woven drift]

This game legit needs to add more sci fi items

[patent sky]

Just a bunch of weird shit is a halloween emporium

[woven drift]

Laser fences

[silver sorrel]

bruh i live in portland the curiosity shops there are more than just a halloween emporium

they have mystery bags and i found a knife in mine LMAO

@woven drift laser fences just vaporize villagers on contact

[patent sky]

We're both talking about Paxton Gate lmfao unless you mean the one downtown with the weird scrolling text outside the shop

[woven drift]

Sorry I can’t not imagine funny from Portlandia when I hear Portland

[silver sorrel]

wait which portland? im talkin oregon

[woven drift]

Oh ok

[patent sky]

Im@also talking Oregon

[woven drift]

Hipster Portland lol

[patent sky]

[uncut lagoon]

Wow everyone’s islands look so pretty compared to my island that like a knock off version of the chum bucket

[silver sorrel]

@uncut lagoon wait till i make the actual chum bucket

[crimson light]

[uncut lagoon]

Haven’t thought about that @silver sorrel

[simple jungle]

2 AM

[copper hatch]

Hmm just try to customize the stuff to the girliest variants, add some cute pink diy related things like a special workbench and shelf, have a nice cushioned stool for the pottery seat next to the clay furnace, some flowers around too, perhaps a couple star fragments since they glow and itll set the scene as being a mystical ceramic master

[silver sorrel]

im makin spongebob town so i'll probably do it xd

[simple jungle]

EST where i am

[sage night]

oh god that sounds SO cute chisel

[crimson light]

star fragments are so cute for setting up a mystical atmosphere

[versed wadi]

[patent sky]

Omg yay!!!

[subtle elm]

[uncut lagoon]

I made a community center on my island then showed it on this chat the next thing that happened was the chat turning from acnh to stardew valley

[brave crane]

@woven drift has a really nice island and wanted to show it to everybody but was a bit nervous

[woven drift]

That looks like the old game right?

[versed wadi]

It's cool AF to watch this!

[brave crane]

no it is new horizons

they told me it was new horizons so i posted it here

[woven drift]

LILLY

[brave crane]

oh no i think this is the wrong ac server sorry bun😭🙈

[woven drift]

It’s not new horizons

😂

[brave crane]

sorry guys i made a mistake i meant to post this in the new leaf server i’m in for @woven drift smh

[woven drift]

All good

omg

sorry y’all she’s crazy

how can you figure out where your character stands when a flight is landing without having to ask a visitor to send a pic

I wish we could plan the aerial view

same

does the flight path change? honestly never really paid attention

The ugly side of my island is the first thing everyone sees

[patent sky]

The flight path doesn't change

[woven drift]

oh then it's easy to plan

i figured it would change based on your building placement

if you keep it in mind before you do anything

[patent sky]

Mine looks like Apple strudel

[grim cosmos]

grounded

[patent sky]

@versed wadi aaaah I know right!?

[trim whale]

@glad epoch oh that’s beautiful!

[woven drift]

im just asking about where your character stands tho not the full path

[shy hull]

Hes sitting and staring at a cliff

[grim cosmos]

i just got rid of goose

i don't wanna talk about it actually

[patent sky]

Your character stands wherever they're standing when the person flies in

We don't talk about Goose

[grim cosmos]

no

[woven drift]

because i placed able sisters and some waterfalls where i assume my character stands on landing and dk if that effects the character visibility

[grim cosmos]

but i do want to talk to your turtle manager

[patent sky]

I AM the turtle manager

[versed wadi]

does the character wave automatically during the flight in animation?

[grim cosmos]

😂

[patent sky]

Yes it waves by itself

[manic lantern]

Yeah definitely alot better than the zodiac clutter lol

[versed wadi]

oh shit! i just realised I've got a house to decorate

[grim cosmos]

sometimes when i'm flying over my island i wonder why i don't see myself waving and then i remember

[viscid dagger]

anyone have like a botanical gardens walkthrough thing i can usefor inspo

[unique marlin]

my house was the first thing i did

[grim cosmos]

goodness gibbs it's 7 am give yourself a break

[unique marlin]

i dreaded doing my island for 2 weeks

[woven drift]

I haven't touched my house yet

[patent sky]

Teddy bears in basement gone. Alien plant lab now

[grim cosmos]

😮

[unique marlin]

i started doing it for a week straight and am in the process of.. not doing it again :))

[grim cosmos]

i currently just open AC and stare at the empty plane my north west side is and cry

[patent sky]

I would kill for an empty plane rn

[grim cosmos]

come stare at my empty plane with me

[patent sky]

I need... more... space...

[silver sorrel]

lmao

[unique marlin]

i’d kill to terraform using my map instead

[shy hull]

Better than mine

[unique marlin]

@mighty dune the evenness is so nice

[patent sky]

Don't ask questions you don't want the answer to 😂

[silver sorrel]

i need answers and possibly an image leak lmao

something to distract me from my character smashing cliffs every second

[unique marlin]

relatable

once a built a giant cliff just to nail it all down the next day because i was unhappy

my bf happily listened to me going “i’m suffering, please help” all the time

[patent sky]

That's a mood

i wish oaths didn’t make the map look so ugly

[past girder]

hello! does anyone know if you can place a villager house on sand paths?

[unique marlin]

@woven drift fossils, statues, etc

hello! does anyone know if you can place a villager house on sand paths?
@past girder
you can place buildings on paths yes ^^

[woven drift]

yes, you can put them on sand and beach

I’ll put some space items around in a space exhibit

[past girder]

great thanks!!

[versed wadi]

they will delete the paths directly underneath

[unique marlin]

if it’s a custom path however

^

[versed wadi]

@past girder ^

[past girder]

but normal sand paths they'll stay?

[versed wadi]

no

[ebon nymph]

I can go into ur phone and click display on ground and it will go through the tony cracks around it like the bottom of the stairs (if it’s a custom desgin)

[versed wadi]

directly underneath the paths will disappear

[unique marlin]

if it’s the stairs though, it won’t disappear

[copper hatch]

Does anyone like a e s t h e t i c still?

[unique marlin]

[past girder]

ahhhhh argh there's no way around it? hahaha

[unique marlin]

i need to decorate the land there so it’s not so plain ;-; I feel so bad because their place could be luxurious but I’m.. so lazy

[woven drift]

It looks so retro

[copper hatch]

@woven drift look at the way that boy shakes the glass!

[grim cosmos]

[rugged bloom]

@silver sorrel I AM BACK

are bridges 3 spaces wide or 4? i know their length can be variable depending on the body of water, but i'm just trying to make sure i have enough space before razing a whole area to add another bridge

[uncut lagoon]

So many succulents

[timber relic]

4 wide @turbid parrot

[turbid parrot]

[shy hull]

Ay why aren’t there villagers at my nook miles islands

[sage night]

1. that should be in #game-help-questions❓ and 2. you need an open plot to see villagers

[woven drift]

Museum spot is coming together! What type of flowers should I plant?

[sage night]

hmm

[woven drift]

I’m gonna do tulips I think

[sage night]

oooh

i was thinking windflowers

[woven drift]

Ooo

[silver sorrel]

@woven drift honestly it may be better if you went more natural and spread a bunch of different flowers out

[woven drift]

Yeah I’m not putting them close together they’ll be spread

[uncut lagoon]

Do rare flowers

Bcs it is a museum right

[silver sorrel]

pansies spread out would look nice, that and windflowers

[woven drift]

Ty ty

[silver sorrel]

like maybe red/blue/purple would contrast with the bright greens and the white

[mighty dune]

Which is better of the two?

[dense rover]

I finished my museum entrance. Ignore the time in the corner.

This chat is very quiet

[frosty ivy]

Sometimes this game sometimes... why is a signpost 2x2? 😂

[versed wadi]

everyone's sleeping… shh

[grim cosmos]

snores

[silver sorrel]

the signpost is 1.5x1.5

[versed wadi]

Sometimes this game sometimes... why is a signpost 2x2? 😂
@frosty ivy Could you swap it out for the angled signpost?

[silver sorrel]

also known as "the death ratio"

[versed wadi]

that path looks dope though

[uncut lagoon]

The signpost has a dimensional ratio

[frosty ivy]

Lol! 1.5 x 1.5... blimey. @versed wadi Good idea, I'll give it a whirl

[versed wadi]

The angled signpost has the added bonus of being actually useful in signposting visitors 🙂

[frosty ivy]

@uncut lagoon Sleeps time, it gets too active at times too 😂

[woven drift]

@vivid nacelle (sorry for tagging I need to keep you under a dm.) (incase I need you 🙂 )

[frosty ivy]

@versed wadi Very true! 📝 Do you play a lot of creating games?

[versed wadi]

Not usually. I was more excited for Doom at launch than AC 😆

[woven drift]

I put some white and yellow tulips around because that’s what I have most of right now but I think I’m satisfied with calling it finished for now

[versed wadi]

Playing that game seems like a lifetime ago

[ember sand]

White hyacinths would look nice 👀

[robust mist]

hey, can i come see someones island? im looking for some inspiration, especially with terraforming.

[frosty ivy]

@versed wadi Ahaha interesting. You seem to have a lot of natural insight so I was wondering.

[versed wadi]

@frosty ivy I work as a UX designer. Hence my love for the utilitarian angled signpost 🙂

[ember sand]

👀

[woven drift]

I have pink but no white ones

[pine musk]

Any tips for an enchanted forest theme? I'm moving all of my buildings up a level and making the bottom level just a bunch of canyons with trees and flowers on each level but I need decorative items. I already know I want Celeste star and moon glowing items and I have a summoning circle area, but what else could I add?

[woven drift]

Fortune teller stall

[ember sand]

Mushroom items would be fitting, would need to either wait for the season to come, buy, or timeskip

[frosty ivy]

@versed wadi Ohh I love that! Haha

[pine musk]

Ooo yeah I was planning on that, might time skip because I'm impatient

[grim cosmos]

gibbs just gets cooler and cooler

[chilly saffron]

Shud i put my villagers at

1.Random spot
or
2.Keep it in one area

[ember sand]

What does UX stand for?

[radiant violet]

made my first intricate waterfall and created a campgroundsy area

[versed wadi]

User experience

[brittle isle]

i'm contemplating whether i use dark n light dirt or the two types of orange/yellow stone for paths in my sun area of my island

[ember sand]

A man of practicality I see

[versed wadi]

@chilly saffron mix it up. Do a bit of both then you get to play around with designing both styles.

[pine musk]

I made the mistake of putting my villagers' houses in a line and now I need o pay to move all of them. But honestly it depends on your theme, since I'm going for a more natural theme I need the houses to be spaced out, but if you're going for a city theme then having them close would be better

[brittle isle]

leaning towards the stone since i wanna use the actual stones in the moon part

[unique marlin]

@radiant violet gonna use your camp area as inspo!!

[chilly saffron]

@chilly saffron mix it up. Do a bit of both then you get to play around with designing both styles.
@versed wadi yeah thats what im thinking to i put all my villgers in 1 area. its kinda lonely

[radiant violet]

omg thats SO AMAZING THANK U!!! i just made it up as i went along

[unique marlin]

I put all of my villagers in their own little area because.. I couldn’t think of anywhere else

[versed wadi]

@chilly saffron I have a neighbourhood of just 3 houses. Everyone else gets a larger themed area based on the character. I enjoyed doing the town, but it’s small enough that it didn’t get repetitive to play with.

[chilly saffron]

i been moving around and it doesnt look good

[unique marlin]

this is where i put my qts at

[radiant violet]

i did mine all close together in a japanese style neighborhood

[chilly saffron]

this one looks so good

[unique marlin]

three of the villagers listed on that map dont live with me anymore

[distant raft]

is this good or should i use a different path?

[versed wadi]

@chilly saffron lulu’s island got a tagback tour last night 😊

[pine musk]

I'd match it to your road but that's just me @distant raft

[uncut lagoon]

My island in nutshell

[chilly saffron]

dude shes worth of art.

[radiant violet]

@unique marlin we almost have the same OG island layout

[robust mist]

does anyone have bamboo grove inspo or entrance inspo?

[versed wadi]

First time I visited @patent sky island changed the way I view this game. I’m so grateful for it!

[radiant violet]

whats her island like?

[distant raft]

@pine musk like this?

[pine musk]

Whyyyy did I choose a layout with res. Services so close to the airport ???

I have no room to do a nice entrance

[robust mist]

me neither!!!

[tall anchor]

Do you guys think a cottagecore island theme is way overused ?

[pine musk]

Yeah! Maybe put flowers around there too though @distant raft

[distant raft]

but its bricks you cant plant flowers over bricks

[versed wadi]

@radiant violet she got a Tagback TV tour last night… https://youtu.be/ZjpE8i55nxo

[pine musk]

And yeah cottagecore is very common but honestly if you vibe just do it

Then make flowerbeds on the side?

[distant raft]

whats a flower bed?

[versed wadi]

Do you guys think a cottagecore island theme is way overused ?
@tall anchor make your island somewhere you'd like to visit/live. If that's cottagecore then who cares if it's popular with others. It's your island 🙂

[lyric lichen]

I made my island into a night market lol

[brittle isle]

the only reason i would want to let a youtuber do a tour is because i keep getting people who ask me to let them tour my island but i literally haven't even started decorating yet </3

[pine musk]

You know, remove the paths and plant flowers to the side of the door. You can even put a dirt path down right under the flowers so it looks like a garden bed

[distant raft]

like blue roses?

[pine musk]

Sure, that works

[frosty ivy]

@tall anchor If you're worrying about it, use a different noun 😎 My theme is Cabincore

[distant raft]

(insert rare flowers here)

[chilly saffron]

i guess im going to split my villages home for couple distance it gives more life than 1 area, 1 area looks so lonely its doesnt have vibes

[versed wadi]

the only reason i would want to let a youtuber do a tour is because i keep getting people who ask me to let them tour my island but i literally haven't even started decorating yet </3
@brittle isle your minimap alone is enough to attract the youtubers 🙂

[clever minnow]

Hello island layout gang

[distant raft]

oh yeah im definently going with this for the rest of the houses near the residential area

[pine musk]

Y'all I'm so mad at myself still, what can I do to make my entrance look nice when it's about 10 tiles away from the airport? It's so close and I wanted to do a natural looking enchanted entrance but I don't have room, what can I do?

[chilly saffron]

whhats the popular fences? zen fence?

[dusty charm]

OK so like i have the neighbor hood area at the top of my map can people give me shop area ideas in the bottom half area of the map🥺🥺🥺🥺pls if i like the idea i’ll even pay u if u need

[frosty ivy]

@pine musk Take a pic and Let's see

[distant raft]

try this

[silver sorrel]

imagine using up all ur qr slots for that

[pine musk]

Ack I'm in bed because it's 3:18 am, I could start my game but I should really sleep. Still, any general tips?

[distant raft]

thanks for helping me make the houses look less boring

[chilly saffron]

FT: Iron-and-stone fence to your Zen fence

oops

[versed wadi]

I zoned Pipwyn into different themes, roughly
• south west is residential
• north west is agricultural
• north east is woodland
• south east is seaside
Then there's a couple of random areas (Bazaar, dig site)
It meant that I could play with a load of different ideas, and not get tied into a single look and feel.

@pine musk Sleep, tiredness and creativity don't mix

[vestal crown]

hi, I just wanted to share how the bottom portion of my map is shaping up ^^

[pine musk]

You aren't wrong

[frosty ivy]

@pine musk Mine is really close so I used cliffs to kinda redirect away from the RS and give it a sense of distance

[woven drift]

What do you guys think? Edited a bit for dramatic effect 🤷🏻‍♂️

[pine musk]

Ooh ok I'll try that

[frosty ivy]

@vestal crown Ohh that river looks mystical

[versed wadi]

also @grave arch. 10 spaces is plenty you just have to work within the restrictions. mine is 11

[vestal crown]

thank you, I’m still trying going through the motions with it & it’s not it’s final form !

[versed wadi]

@vestal crown that's one beautiful map!

[frosty ivy]

@versed wadi I'm happy I got to see your entrance. Helped me build mine

[grim cosmos]

looks whooshy whoosh

[timber relic]

Kinda basic I know but what should I put on those thin pieces of land on the sides of my island 😂

[grim cosmos]

love the name of ur island

[versed wadi]

@versed wadi I'm happy I got to see your entrance. Helped me build mine
@frosty ivy I need to visit your island (and hide treasure everywhere)

[pine musk]

I can't sleep
Time to work on my island lmao

[grim cosmos]

ummmm please hide treasures in my island too ty

[frosty ivy]

@pine musk Sounds like someone got a flash of inspo. I love it

@versed wadi Ahahaa, you could call it "pay"back 😎

[versed wadi]

@grim cosmos Nabby sold turnips on my island on Monday and hid bags of bells all over the place. I'm still finding them.

[grim cosmos]

that is adorable

[brittle isle]

@brittle isle your minimap alone is enough to attract the youtubers 🙂
@versed wadi the map for sure is a lot more appealing than the island it self rn 😭

[grim cosmos]

imma drop star frags on someones island one day

[frosty ivy]

@brittle isle Sounds like the words of many artistically gifted

[grim cosmos]

that'd just be so darling

[versed wadi]

@brittle isle 'right now' being the key phrase. With such creativity in your map I'm sure we're in for a treat when you've decorated!

[shadow gust]

Anyone have any ideas of how I could layout all 10 villagers on the bottom right?? I been stuck for hours haha :/

[brittle isle]

@frosty ivy there r no decoration or paths so it's sad looking but i'll get there one day !!

[grim cosmos]

i need to stop paying attention to how my map looks actually

[brittle isle]

i need to stop paying attention to how my map looks actually
@grim cosmos i feel u it's all i do </3

[grim cosmos]

i either stare at a giant empty plane or i start terraforming unnecessary cliffs

that's where i've been at all week

[brittle isle]

i either stare at a giant empty plane or i start terraforming unnecessary cliffs
@grim cosmos you are me and i am you

[grim cosmos]

❤️ i feel less alone ty

[frosty ivy]

@shadow gust This is a useful layout for a compact neighbourhood

[brittle isle]

fr i make so many little unnecessary things my island feels so small </3

[versed wadi]

treat the game like a series of dioramas... the parts of my island I dislike the most are those that I can't properly photograph.

[median salmon]

my map is a mess, i didn’t think many people cared about how it looked (those aren’t permanent spots for the museum and camp lol)

[pine musk]

Time traveled to avoid scorpions .. Let's terraform this mofo

[silver sorrel]

Day 1 demolition update...before

after

[brittle isle]

my map is a mess, i didn’t think many people cared about how it looked (those aren’t permanent spots for the museum and camp lol)
@median salmon that;s not a mess DD: its pretty !

[grim cosmos]

i have a huge area between a bridge and a bunch of cliffs that i don't know how to connect

[median salmon]

ty!!

[brittle isle]

i guess you could try n curve your path to fill up the space ?

[vernal crest]

after 300 hours im starting my island over cause i hate it lol

[grim cosmos]

probably

[radiant violet]

that was INTENSE i watched the whole video

[grim cosmos]

wasn't it amazing?

[versed wadi]

isn't it a thing of beauty!

[radiant violet]

i can just imagine trying to complete daily tasks

[brittle isle]

how do i move to a virtual island </3

[pine musk]

Not looking too hot

[radiant violet]

once u get to that point in the game... isnt that the end of the game? the point is to build up and achieve everything

shes done just that

[grim cosmos]

she's always making new little areas

[vernal crest]

Rip ugly isle

[grim cosmos]

and redoing areas

[versed wadi]

I doubt Lulu's finished 🙂

[radiant violet]

does she stream?

[brittle isle]

if i ever reach a point of considering it finished i would probably start learning how to design properly

[versed wadi]

or maybe she is, getting a tagback tour would offer a nice sense of closure.

[fresh summit]

Anyone got some good nooks cranny ideas?

[versed wadi]

does she stream?
@radiant violet I don't think so, she does have a twitter though.

[grim cosmos]

i have bets on pipwyn being a tagback tour

[brittle isle]

me too !

[radiant violet]

whats her twt

[brittle isle]

also robín's island... in love with it

[versed wadi]

I can't get on twitter atm

[grim cosmos]

ah yes robin's island is magical

[median salmon]

my entrance is pretty basic, but i like it :))

[brittle isle]

i love it !!

[grim cosmos]

big sigh i need to start being magical

[unique marlin]

basic is honestly so nice

[frosty ivy]

@pine musk Ohh it's aligned quite nicely

[unique marlin]

@median salmon do you have the code for the floral grass thing on your stone path?

[median salmon]

thank you <3🥺

[eager kite]

anyone have some museum inspo??

[median salmon]

@median salmon do you have the code for the floral grass thing on your stone path?
@unique marlin lemme see if i can find it 🙂

My stuff never trends on Reddit, so I doubt I'll ever be able to catch Tag-backs attention. I imagine the guy gets inundated with requests.

omg it's robin hide

hehehe

[brittle isle]

robin needs to come sprinkle magic on my island and make good ideas grow

[versed wadi]

I think Beardo would get a youtube video de-monetised.

[grim cosmos]

bad beardo

it's ok just censor him

[umbral crystal]

does anyone have a sushi themed area? im stuck on what items i can use

[brittle isle]

i'm still cracking up at the sight of him ina tube top

[shell tiger]

@grim cosmos ❤️ you got this ishtar you already have magical ideas

[grim cosmos]

❤️ ❤️ ❤️

[versed wadi]

Last night I spent way too long trying to make his presence on my island make sense.

[frosty ivy]

@versed wadi You should post a pic of him with a pixel censor, but just of the tube top not the hairy belly lol

[shell tiger]

omg, beardo with the hair coming out from under the croptop.... I thought it was an apron at first lol

[versed wadi]

I'm trying to get enough screenshots together to tell his story

but I might be overthinking it. Maybe the tube-top alone is enough.

[subtle kettle]

Hi, finally managed to have the last rock spawn in the correct place and finish the museum after a lot of time. It was inspired by "Urban Light" an art installation outside the Los Angeles County Museum of Art. Just wanted to share 🙂

[frosty ivy]

@subtle kettle This lights up my life

[subtle kettle]

@subtle kettle This lights up my life
@frosty ivy Thanks took a lot of work, specially the rocks, but so happy to have it finished, Messed up the bridge and incline location by one square at first

[frosty ivy]

@subtle kettle Yeah I can respect it, I've heard rock placement is a job-and-a-half

[cinder marten]

ahhhh im so tired i finally feel satisfied with my museum area

[swift depot]

How did ppl deal with the uneven museum?

[versed wadi]

That's amazing.

Did you base it on LACMA?

[cinder marten]

😭😭

[sick quail]

Having an existential crisis... Grass background or stone background? Doing a witchy village.

[shell tiger]

mmmm

[unreal tusk]

hi guys! does anyone have any good ideas on how to decorate outside of sherb’s house? ik my baby likes nature but it’s a struggle getting blue flowers 🥺

[subtle kettle]

Did you base it on LACMA?
@versed wadi Yeah, have never been able to see it in person , but love how it looks in pictures

[shell tiger]

I think I like the stone background better
