#AnimalCrossing #NewHorizons #ACNH - Hry
Ive recently gotten the inspiration to get back into animal crossing and finally fully decorate my island. For the first time! The problem is I don’t know where to start & I’m overwhelmed. I don’t know how to plan it out ahead of time ( or if I should).
What I did was to make a list of areas I wanted on my island, like a restaurant /coffee, rock garden, flower garden, forest, etc... Then decide if I wanted one big neighborhood or multiple small ones or only scattered houses. Same for the shops (shopping center or not?). After that, I used the website Happy Island Designer to figure out my map roughly and place the areas I listed. And finally I picked one area and started building.
It's important to know that the map created is only a draft, not an exact placement of things and it can be changed when building. Starting with one area at a time helps too. It's better to start on a border of the island, like the airport or on one side so when you finish the island, you arrive at the center and have less dead space or fillers areas to work with.
Hope that helps 😊
@@Just_Alice.this helps so much! Thank you! Another thing I struggle with is knowing where to terraform. It’s really hard to visualize this ahead of time. I think it’s going to take some trial and error.
@@Lexi-M I'm glad that helps 😊 For terraforming, it's a lot of trial and errors, but you can think a little where you want some cliffs or waterfalls for example. Then try and see. Watching some speed build can help sometimes to see how some builds are made. I took many inspo and help watching videos!
@@Lexi-Mtrial and error is key. Like that other commenter, I also make a list of areas I want. I’m currently making a Halloween island, and I knew I wanted a costume contest area, a pumpkin patch, and a haunted carnival. Figuring out the layout was just a matter of going with the flow, tearing things down, and rebuilding.
Experiment with different terraforming until you find something that just vibes with you. Remember, you can always tear it down and try something else the next day. 😊
For both the islands I worked on, I did a quick sketch beforehand so I at least had an idea of where I wanted everything to go, where I wanted all buildings/bridges etc. - especially with the limit on stairs/bridges I find this helpful! Ofc there’s some trial and error bc you cant anticipate where you might have some small gaps but this helped me a bunch (also having a theme or some inspiration for what you wanna do!
a filler area i've been quite proud of that i did recently was a little berry patch with red lily bulbs and blue windflower bulbs to look like strawberries and blueberries
Cute!! 🥰
I had no idea that chopping down trees at different stages left the stumps at their corresponding sizes! Definitely going to take advantage of that when I’m decorating later today :) Awesome video, thank you!
Edit: One of the other things I learned is that I need wayyy more items in my catalog and more diy recipes
My entire island has developed organically and that’s just a nice way of saying it’s a gigantic filler space. It’s daunting to go about making a cohesive plan. Maybe I’ll just stick to letting it go like the highland moors. 😂
A gigantic filler area is totally ok! Honestly that's what creates the vibe of your island, so you're doing amazingly! ❤
The most recent placed creature that ive discovered that i really love is the giant isopod, i placed them on a wooden partition in my house so it can peak over the top of the container at me. I am also a huge fan of when people place the snapping turtles alongside things like pet food bowls like they’re just a funny looking dog
Its so interesting to see your design process bc it is polar opposite to mine...i dont plan things out bc i cant picture them unless theyre actually there (thanks adhd brain) so i just kinda mindlessly decorate and then adjust what i think needs adjusting haha
I also sometimes start placing items down just to see what they look like and then decide from there what to work with! But whichever way works is totally perfect, especially as long as you're having fun! ❤
Your guides are always so well organized and edited. ❤
Thank you so much! 🤎
I recently took down almost everything on my island to start over. Going back to it after 9 months, when I saw it I felt trapped in little spaces because I had filled it up with way too much stuff, filling all the spaces. I now prefer to leave OPEN SPACE so that there's room to breathe and look around. Ahhhh! Sweet.
This is absolutely the most helpful filler guide so far. Its nice to go back to this video while decorating to quickly check all the stages/looks. Thank you for making the time to make this!❤ inspires me to open up animal crossing again 🎉
Thank you for watching and the sweet words! 🥺
Don’t mind me I’m just gonna subscribe and then binge all of your content because I am on an animal crossing fixation again and this video was so helpful ! I am so excited to watch your other videos and I have so many more ideas to motivate me ! Thank you !
I got inspiration to get back onto animal crossing and i restarted my island with no plan, so i found an aesthetic and i’ve been getting ideas from pinterest, but i have no clue how to plan, or where to start.. it’s a little overwhelming. I usually start with my entrance but past that, i have like no clue what i’m doing, because, i always know how i want the entrance/resident services to look but nothing else.
i've always been so disorganized with how i structure and decorate my island which makes me so stressed that i give up....having a technique like this is a game changer and so genius, thank you!!
I don't normally comment on YT videos, but MY OH MY!!! I fell in love with your account. Your voice, the descriptions, the editing (!!!), the explanations, your website, EVERYTHING is perfect. Thank you for getting me back into acnh 💛
Seeing the process you follow is so helpful! I've been playing less than a year and I'm finally at the point where I feel like I have access to enough items and things to start really building out my island, but everytime I try I feel like I get overwhelmed, end up doing random things just to do something and hating my results 90% of the time. Having a guide like this to follow is actually so helpful! Thanks so much, I'm excited to try this 🥰
Love this tutorial, it was nice seeing all the different colors of items, I also think your decorating office is adorable
i’ve had vivid the last couple days and getting back into animal crossing is something i’ve been enjoying. thank you for the tips!
Literally have been thinking about filler ideas all week! Tysm!
This is brilliant! Really appreciated the end bit with you showing us your process, thank you!!
omg I've been going trough your video's to try and learn something about the way you decorate all week because you do it so well! This guide is absolutely perfect thank you so much❤
Thank you for watching! 🤎
Ahh I loved the video! It’s so well done, thought through and inspiring 🤎 gentle hugs, Fia
Thank you so much!❤ I love you and your videos. You helped me resign to flattening before decorating as well. Barrels are my favorite filler!
i can't even imagine all the work you had to do in order to film this! thank you very much. i was looking for a sign in order to restart my island and here it is! i really want to get it done this time
Also hello that filler area in the end. It looks so effortless 😂 I might be able to do this myself too 😮❤
That was one of the most valuable acnh videos I’ve ever watched. Really liked the filler area demo at the end. This is pro level advice. Thank you.
Great guide, very well structured and very intricate :) seems like you put a lot of work into it
I've been playing this game since release and somehow didn't know that chopping a tree before it's fully grown will leave a lasting smaller stump behind.
I lovingly call them baby stumps! Sometimes it can be really nice to include some different sizes, I'm glad I was able to show you something new hehe 😍
Thankyou for this video! You always help out so. Much when I’m stuck 🎉
omg you are really talented, everything looks so easy🤣 thanks a lot for this guide, its very useful ❣
thank you for this amazing video! i really needed this rn
Omg your video is perfect! So I played a while back and for 2 yrs didn't touch it. I decided to say goodbye to my animals and delete and start all over again and I'm back to being obsessed with it but was stuck on what fillers to do! Then your video popped up as a suggestion! Thank you!
thank u so much for also showing your decorating process !! it helped so much to see the progression of how to set up those filler spaces :)
Glad it was helpful! ❤
thank you so much! i'm binge watching all your videos. I've had the game 10 months but just now trying to really decorate it and i love this approach of filling it in, then i can go back and change some later. I only get about 1 to 2 hr a day to be on the game and often late at night when i don't have a lot of energy. This helped me SO much to focus .. thank you!!!
Thank you so much for the kind comment! And I hope you have lots of fun decorating! ❤
This video is so well thought out! Thanks Malin for the inspiration
Omg yes the party-lights arch! 😍😍
This was so incredibly helpful, thank you!
This was so polished and well done! thank you!
Omgosh that path is so nice 17:21
This is an amazing video, thank you so much! 💕
Excellent content. You’re my new favorite!
this video saved my life, my island and my motivation to decorate more!
😍😍
Such a helpful video!! Thanks for sharing, you made it look super easy.
You got this! ❤
this is exactly what ive been looking for omfg thank u
You make everything look so easy! Love the video! Very helpful!!
🤎🤎
This is amazing! Super clear, organized and inspiring! Excellent editing. What software do you use for editing? Thank you so much for this vid!
This helped so much thx🐢🐢
Can’t wait to watch ❤❤❤
I recently started over and just got the task to make my island a 3 star. This is definitely helping me get some ideas for when I’m ready to fully decorate my island. Ty for this video!
Glad I could help! Have fun! ❤
@@sparksby I’m having a lot of fun with it! Ty! ☺️
Love your vid and your personality ❤ subbed
thank u for your video, it's really good !
0:51 that room is so pretty and cozy 😍
this is such a good guide!
This was honestly so helpful
this was... oddly satisfying to watch if that makes sense ^^ so many good ideas for filler items as well as mentioning the plant variety that sometimes gets overlooked when one is in a mad dash to find interesting things for an empty transition area or something. I also really like that filler area you used as an example in the end - gives the perfect starting autumn vibes for me hehe
Awesome video, very informative
This is a very helpful video; I wish I knew these tips after ihit 3 stars. Thank you!
I love your guide so much! thank you for the inpso :)
I personally love dropping sticks and stones around my paths to make it look more nature like.
Your videos are always so inspirational and beautifully put together. Thank you!
I was waiting for the wheat fields to make an appearance, what would we do without them! 😂 This is an amazing guide, and the timing is eprfect as I've been working on filler areas all week on my island so I'm definitely getting some inspo here! Thank you for this guide!!! 💚
Haha right? No island without wheat fields! 😂
I'm so mad I still dont have this item 😭
Omg, you are so amazing!
I wanna get back into my island that I named after groose from skyward sword, grooseland. I plan on making the island look like skyloft, but that might change to make it look like the surface world
I wish i had this video before I finished my island a year ago, kinda figured all this by myself lol :( great work!
Took me two minutes to subscribe. Where have you been the last three years?! CZcams was criminal keeping your videos from me. Going to go plant 2-day old bamboo all over my Swamp Witch build.
Oh I am so glad I came across you! Not only so informative, but also hilarious. I died at the wheat field comment 😂
😂🤭
Btw you can also place socks as lil decorations, they're completely walkable too!
love the vid your so underrated and how do we get the wheat field
the wheat field is a regular item that can randomly show up in nook's cranny and in nook shopping
Thank you for this! I’m struggling so bad on fillers!!! Personally, stunting the trees isn’t my cup of tea since I like everything to functional resource wise, but it looks so cute when they are and it’s so hard to decide if I want to stunt them or not 😭
Do you mean because of the things you can shake from the trees? If it helps, I think there's 5 trees that can hold a wasp each day, 2 that hold an item and then 10 that hold 100 bells each, so you really only need like 17 fully grown trees to get all the benefits ❤
@@sparksby oh! I completely spaced on that fact lol! Thank you!
YOU HAVE SAVED ME
This is beautiful but my ideal island is a grid of the appropriate trees to get my resources/fruit and straight paths to key locations.
THANKS ⚘️
Thanks!
Thank YOU! 🤎
You’ve made me want to move that one bridge
Can also place picked flowers and that will look like a single flower in a tiny vase
overwhelmed
Best Filler video on YT
🥺🥺🤎
I played this a couple years ago, have they added a ton of new items?? I have to say I didn’t recognize 80% of the stuff you showcased! 😮
i rememebr how excited i was when i learned about the tree growth stages thing, but i just got that same excited feeling when i learned WAIT THE STUMPS ARE DIFFERENT SIZES TOO? i feel silly not realizing that sooner lmfao
I got back in animal crossing!
So I just started my island. Should I wait until I’ve beaten the storyline or how do you navigate it through all the story. Is there a certain set up you prefer. I am good with decorating, but I struggle with making it coherent. Any tips?
Hi! I’m new to your channel I was hoping I could get some tips of how to keep trees and bamboo and their small growth stage and not grow at all
Hey! 😊 I explain and show it in the video actually: you have to plant a fruit sapling (anything but coconuts) in one of the surrounding tiles of your tree (at the stage you want it at)! ☺
I really like people like you that do their islands like this, it looks very whismical. I wish I wasnt so OCD with my island, it’s cute but VERY structured and it bothers me when there is one weed or branch on the ground 😂
I remember playing city folk and my sister and I would always fight over the wheat fields lol
Sigh. Okay. Ill try playing AC again.
wait, how do you keep ur trees in a small stages? I'm sorry, I don't really understand
btw ur webside is so helpfull and well organized! I was totally looking for something like this
Once the tree is the size you want, you can plant a fruit directly behind it and the tree won’t be able to grow anymore. Hope this helps! ^-^
@@01.firefly aaah okay, I see! Thank u so much I was just wondering how to do without leaving the "planting spot"
how do you get all the fancy trees and plants, and just in general not basic items? i’ve been playing for a while and i still don’t have a lot!
This is a weird question but when you did the Encanto village what what kind of Geo fragments the little nose things to things that make noise? What did you use in that video in your house because I love it how you did the house
❤❤❤
I'm not quite sure I understand the question... do you mean what gyroids I have used?
Yes
@@sparksby yes
The reason I didn’t answered three days ago because I got my phone taken because I don’t at school so that’s why I couldn’t answer until today because tomorrow I don’t have school, so yeah thank you but yes what kind of groids do you use?
wahh whats the path called you put down with the flowers?
Be cautious of dropped items. It counts as clutter. I dropped to a 4 star island and couldn’t figure out why. Too many dropped items.
I’m only a couple weeks in, I woke up to mushrooms, do I wait each day for new things,, how can I customise outside?
Wait ur German? Your English is so good!
Im new to playing this. Do i just have to play the game and wait until i come across all these items? I really want to build a natural forest island
What’s the pathway code? Its really nice
Not sure if I missed this, but how do I get different sized trees?
Wouldn’t they just keep growing once I plant them again? Or do they stay on the desired size once you dig them up ?
I do say it when I talk about the trees, yes ☺
You basically have to plant a fruit sapling in one of the surrounding tiles. They stay in the size when you dig them up, but you always need the sapling next to it!
Thank you!!!
Do dropped items affect the rating? If so, I wonder how many dropped items u can have without it affecting the rating? :3
I love small spaces in animal crossing Im so good at decorating them I’m not joking most of the things in my island are really small and close to each other
Where do you get all of this stuff 😢. I guess my problem is I don’t play daily so I’m sure I’ve missed a ton of good stuff in nooks cranny or at the nook miles redemption store. But man, there are so many things that I’ve just never even seen before and I’ve had this game for years 😭
this video is the best girl
i think i'm struggling with decorating the filler that is my entire island :D
Hi hi! I've been playing acnh for a few months. I've visited several islands, and I have a question/observation: When I visit a full island, I can barely move. The lag drives me a little batty. Is it indeed the over usage of items in the game that cause this lag? I've been keeping my island a bit sparse, I do have a five star rating, and carefully choose items to place and I only get the sketchy lag when running near my farm and waterfall. Anyway ... I want to do more, but if it's the items crowding my island and causes me to walk like a cartoon flip book, that stresses me out. >.>
Yeah that's exactly what it is unfortunately. You kind of have to sacrifice system performance for a heavily decorated island.
ANYONE. Does loading your island make you move like a ton in an old timey flip book?
I'm in the middle of a entire island re build and building a farm, im desperate to find a tractor
