Oh boy, paths are a big topic. But I tried my best to cover it! There is plenty to more get to, but I have more videos coming!!! What I really wanna know is this. What is a current goal on your island? What theme are you aiming to achieve?
Found your videos very recently and its made my life a lot easier considering I don't time travel and mistakes with building, inclines and structures cost days to fix. A quick note, something I found and I'm not if you mentioned this in a different video: Villager houses cannot be placed on anything but default grass. I tried making brick/terracotta yards/foundations for my villager homes and moving their houses onto it just replaced the path with default ground. Not sure if anyone will find this useful, but its something I found
So keen for you bro! It’s actually so disappointing when you finish after you take it all in for a few days, you get to that point your like “now what” haha. You’ll see
Best video yet, definitely going to share this. So useful to know about the invisible paths to stop fossils and weeds and planting palm trees using sand. Seriously keep making these they're great, well thought out videos!
Hi, I’m 2-1/2 weeks into ACNH ...and I’m officially hooked! My KK concert is tomorrow, so hoping terraforming will be unlocked! You’re videos are so AMAZING! I’ll definitely need to rewatch these a few times. Thanks so much! XO from Minnesota, Stephanie
By far, THE best information for helping me get unstuck and start enjoying the process. Can’t wait for your planning and design videos. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!
This guide was amazingly in-depth and comprehensive. it's given me a lot of ideas for applying to my island. I was a bit bummed when I found out tiles couldn't go straight up to some areas, like the airport steps, but with all the ideas you've given me I'm sure I'll find a new way to design it. Thanks so much for this!
Hey Red ! Thanks for your kind words, I appreciate the feedback. I am going to be going wayyy more in depth in path uses in my design videos so stick around, the terraforming series is the very basics and explains as much as I know, but creatively theres tonnes more for me to cover! :D
I just binge watched so many of your videos. Your vids are super helpful, thanks for putting all this time and effort into videos to help the rest of us out.
this is so helpful! i’ve been having a burnout with my island design. it wasn’t very cohesive and i found myself having difficulty with filling space. but now i’ve been binging this series and i’m so excited to revamp my island! thank you so so much!!!
Hey Ebony!!!! Now push yourself to a 10 :D Haha in all seriousness, I did nothing to your island, it was all you and your hard work and time! Keep it up and enjoy the process!
Great, informative video. I learned so much, especially that I might start with out premade tiles to lay out my island and then go back and embellished with special stuff later.
As I've started to work on designing my island, this is a big help. I was trying to show a cutoff from a stone to dirt path and thought it looked mediocre, and now I know that sometimes no or very little path works too! Keep up the good work!
woah i like the idea of adding qr codes on top of existing paths, thats so cool never thought of that!! im going to try creating a custom doormat for my house!
This video was so helpful! I didn't even think about all these other ways you could use paths. I'm trying to have a really nice flow to my island. After watching this Im seeing some places that I could improve on. (I only started terraforming about 2 days ago so my island is still in construction so to speak, so it's good to recognise this early on, because I can improve my layout and stuff now!) I'm not too pressed about having a specific overall theme, but I'm definitely trying to incorporate some things that would be really fun for my friends when they come over! I want my island to be really interesting and fun for us, so I'm trying to think of lots of little mini games that we could play, and how I can achieve this. Also I saw on your most recent video that you're gonna be streaming soon?? Cant wait!!! 😁😁
Hi Fiona! Nice to see you back watching another video! :) Terraforming, especially paths takes some time and consideration but from what you’ve said I think you have it all under control! :D mini games are awesome, I found that Animal Crossing isn’t all about the design and decoration, the many mechanics can be used in various ways so be creative! Yes haha, I’m waiting for my Elgato Cam Link so I can have a face cam, not long now 😎
Is it crazy that I mix up my pathing? I love the eroded brick look so I use it next to flowers, rivers, porches, plant showcases, etc. but I might also have a path just to walk through an area next to the eroded brick that is total different design. Guess you’ll have to see it to know what I’m talking about. Anyway, I was wondering if it’s too eclectic or unnatural to have many pathing designs in an area.
I’m so glad I found a good teacher I don’t know if you covered trees how you got rid of them all do you have a beginner guide. I am not a good designer . Thank you . Your place is lovely
Well I hope my series is helping you with terraforming! Take your time and you’ll be just fine! Remember it’s alright to experiment and get things wrong!
I am struggling so bad with the left side of my island lol.. i like somewhat finished the right side but i've been delaying the left side for like 2 weeks now...
Take your time! There’s absolutely no rush. I suggest you visit other islands and get some ideas, and even just experiment with smaller areas first and in time it’ll fill out on its own!
The biggest reason I'm stopping myself from starting the terraforming process is the fact that I'll have to move existing buildings and trees/flowers. I want to completely overhaul the layout of the island, but I would always need a plot of land to "store" the existing buildings, and it takes a whole day to move them. Furthermore, I can't store flowers or trees in my house storage, so I'd have to downsize the number of trees/flowers, so they fit in whatever small bit of land dedicated to "store" them while remodeling the rest of the island? I guess my question after all that rambling is, can you do a video on how you began that process and the things you learned the hard way while doing so?
Hey Ann! So glad you found my videos! At the moment, my content is on its way to covering exactly the stuff you’re concerned about. As you can probably tell, I’m laying foundations for my future videos so that I can focus on design features and the island processes! Expect to see these after this series!!
@@Teefloppy excellent content. I'm glad I found you. I appreciate the nitty gritty of the process, and all other videos I came across are too "bird's eye view" for me, until your videos. Looking forward to more from you.
Thanks for the helpful videos. I have 2 questions: 1) Can invisible tiles be kicked up by pressing Y like custom tiles are? 2) Will you include links or pattern numbers to the custom patters you use in your videos, such as the text on the beach?
your videos are so so helpful ! thanks for taking the time to do these ! Can you do a video on how to save money to relocate buildings? i'm terraforming and i need to rearrange all my houses ):
Hey Em!! I’m so glad you’ve found my content helpful to you! In my next few videos after the terraforming series I’m gonna be breaking down my optimised daily routine and best (easiest) ways to invest bells! But my hardest video I’m spending the most time recording atm is my “island reset” haha. I’m doing my entire island all over again! So that video would be perfect for you :P
i absolutely love your videos! I just found them in trying to find out something about bridges. Your videos are very helpful! I want to make my island have a theme but everything is just kinda random 😅 i’m slowly doing different sections at the same time
I was in love with the game until i started designing and terraforming now I don't even touch it way to many limitations the game needs some serious polishing This game made me hate a number the number 8 will forever be my ENEMY.
You are just a super creative that hates limits! Just like me! Most people do need that limit though, but I get where your coming from. It could be the result of a software limit.
Quick question though. Are paths locked off from construction like building sites, bridges, and inclines to users who didn't happen to run the game first on a given console?
Hey WR3ND not entirely sure what you mean here, but paths are locked behind the campaign. Bridges, buildings and inclines are build able during the games natural progress, but paths you get when you finish the quest line
Thanks for the reply. What I'm meaning is my wife, who ran the game on our TV's Switch first, seems to be the only one who can build site locations, bridges, and inclines. I'm on the, I think fifth expansion of my house in the game though (having three side rooms), and could choose where to place it and have moved it once, but I can't, for example, talk to Tom Nook to see where I'd like a bridge to be. I don't get the dialog option.
WR3ND ohhhh. Hmmm that’s strange, perhaps that’s probably because your wife is the main player for the game and you’ve been just an add on to the islands residency. I play solo so I wouldn’t be able to confirm but I can check for you to see if my partner gets the option or not as well!
If it's no trouble to check if they can do paths and land and water terraforming, otherwise I can just be patient and wait and see. Thanks for the offer either way. It seems strange they have users share the same island across user accounts, but then they don't get the same options for playing the game. Cheers.
Oh boy, paths are a big topic. But I tried my best to cover it! There is plenty to more get to, but I have more videos coming!!! What I really wanna know is this. What is a current goal on your island? What theme are you aiming to achieve?

If you are interested in seeing my island you are welcome 😊
So amped to mess around with my island. I agree the perspective is cool when you walk and then bam the place or thing appears
So keen for you bro! It’s actually so disappointing when you finish after you take it all in for a few days, you get to that point your like “now what” haha. You’ll see
Best video yet, definitely going to share this. So useful to know about the invisible paths to stop fossils and weeds and planting palm trees using sand. Seriously keep making these they're great, well thought out videos!
The invisible tiles are great! Thanks Ron I really do appreciate your support it’s what keeps me going! 😄

Gday from Sydney Australia! That's the best feeling, I hope you enjoy the experience!! Best of luck with the build :D
By far, THE best information for helping me get unstuck and start enjoying the process. Can’t wait for your planning and design videos. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!
Hi Hoku!!!! The pleasure is mine!! I’m so happy you found my videos helpful!! Stick around cause I’m currently curating design videos!
This guide was amazingly in-depth and comprehensive. it's given me a lot of ideas for applying to my island.

really the only time I have appreciated the first minute of a how to video
I just binge watched so many of your videos. Your vids are super helpful, thanks for putting all this time and effort into videos to help the rest of us out.

Hey Ebony!!!! Now push yourself to a 10 :D
Haha in all seriousness, I did nothing to your island, it was all you and your hard work and time! Keep it up and enjoy the process!
Tak Gaming don’t worry I am working hard at it! It’ll be a 10 in no time. Thank you so much for the tips and tricks and keep up the good work :))
Ebony Fitzgerald thanks so much!! Hope to see you in other videos!!
Great, informative video. I learned so much, especially that I might start with out premade tiles to lay out my island and then go back and embellished with special stuff later.
Great video, so informative. Also love the horizon perspective I will have to take more advantage of it.

Hey!! Thanks for the support I appreciate it!!!
As I've started to work on designing my island, this is a big help. I was trying to show a cutoff from a stone to dirt path and thought it looked mediocre, and now I know that sometimes no or very little path works too! Keep up the good work!
Glad I could help! I am making a come back!
this is great! good variety of tips and uses for paths!!
Thanks Taco!!! Stick around got plenty more videos I’m working on atm :)
thanks for the video, just unlocked paths myself. excited to unlock cliff and water forming so i can finally urbanize my island
So keen for you Vincent, it’s a long process but so rewarding haha. Perfect timing too! My vids on these are about to release
I hope I can give you a tour before the hype dies down
Vincent Paul gonna be playing this for a while so I’m always down
Tysm!!!! I’m new to the game so this really helped 😭
I like the invisible tile idea
You’ve quickly become one of my favourite channels ❤️❤️ I’ve binged all your videos today
Aww Shadia that’s a motivation boost! Incoming upload in the next 30 mins!!!
what the code for the lil print of leaves on top of all your grass?
Oh boy seeing marina sitting in the background just made me think I need her!
Ty so very much for your help 😀
You're so awesome!! Thank you for this well-thought out video. You've inspired me ☺️
Thanks Cameron!! All the best with your island!!
Your videos are super helpful, thank you! :)
Hey Sunnypeach! You're most welcome! My next videos are big ones! Waterscaping and Cliff Construction!!
woah i like the idea of adding qr codes on top of existing paths, thats so cool never thought of that!! im going to try creating a custom doormat for my house!
Awesome right?! I didn't either, discovered that one accidentally :'D

Was planning on it!

Guess you’ll have to see it to know what I’m talking about. Anyway, I was wondering if it’s too eclectic or unnatural to have many pathing designs in an area.
Animal crossing is a creators dream! You build how you want - if you like it then you did a great job!
I’m so glad I found a good teacher I don’t know if you covered trees how you got rid of them all do you have a beginner guide. I am not a good designer . Thank you . Your place is lovely
You're too nice Susan! I am humbled!
OMG, I bought this game to help with my anxiety during quarantine plus it looked fun but terraforming has been a nightmare for me lol.
Well I hope my series is helping you with terraforming! Take your time and you’ll be just fine! Remember it’s alright to experiment and get things wrong!
Idk what to put infront of my plaza? Any tips?
Have a theme and let your imagination fill in the blanks! What theme are you running with?
@@Teefloppy I decided on making a starry inspired farmers market? Do you think it would work out?
How do you get rid of the little grass lines that go by the designs it’s annoying
Use a custom pattern, but unfortunately all the stock built in designs have the grass edge :(
Thanks for the vid. been stuck for ages
Glad I could help!! Best of luck with Paths! :D
Me: 10 HOURS!?
also me: *playing from 3 pm to 3am since 2 weeks*
It’s totally like that haha
your vids are a mad help TakGaming! always watch your new vids aye
The pleasure is mine bro!!!!
I am struggling so bad with the left side of my island lol.. i like somewhat finished the right side but i've been delaying the left side for like 2 weeks now...

I LOVE YOUR VIDEOSS!!!!
Thanks Ada!! Hope they help you and you’ve learnt something!!
the real question is what did you do to get those robot heros and the resources for it?
I traded the following on Nookazon for them
1 robot for Lucky
1 robot for Ankha
1 robot Bob
This is so helpful thank you ever so much!
You’re so welcome Rebecca, hope you subbed!
@@Teefloppy of course!!! :-)
okay but we all know this needs more love like come onnn
Thanks so much! I’m happy as long as I’ve helped you!
paths are cool!!! ...... ur cool!!! hey cool video !!!!! :)
Hey bro!!!! You're cool! Thanks for the comment! Like and subscribe!
This is very helpful! Thaank youuu
Glad it was helpful!
I didn’t know there was so much to making paths! Where can I find some cool designs/QR codes?
Hey bro!! The custom QR codes are for another video but some of the best places to start would be pinterest and tumblr!
The biggest reason I'm stopping myself from starting the terraforming process is the fact that I'll have to move existing buildings and trees/flowers. I want to completely overhaul the layout of the island, but I would always need a plot of land to "store" the existing buildings, and it takes a whole day to move them.

How do you get rid of the gaps between different paths 😭😭
That’s just how they are with the standard paths, but if you use custom tiles - there are some out there that have been designed to have no gaps!
i absolutely love your videos! I just found them in trying to find out something about bridges. Your videos are very helpful! I want to make my island have a theme but everything is just kinda random 😅 i’m slowly doing different sections at the same time
not at the same time - disregard that part 😂
hahaha I am humbled Jace! Hope to see you soon in my next videos!
I have a very natural island but still tweeking here and there
Love the natural vibe and aesthetic!
Tak Gaming Id love you to see what you think to what I’ve done if you’d ever like to
Laura Jay would be awesome!
Tak Gaming Really?! That would be ace! How can I chat to you via DM?

Oh thank you! I try to stay on the downlow and grow! Content first!
When your family is your family, your island is not your island...

I'm not convinced this game isn't actually a satirical social commentary on capitalism and consumerism. 10/10
There have been occasions where I think the same thing. (Nintendo is cheeky like that)
By now just call your channel terraforming gaming
It would suit it
