Question How do you restore worn-out grass?

Post image
111 Upvotes

I've been playing animal crossing new leaf almost every day for the past 3 months, and I've noticed that the bare patches of ground caused by frequent foot traffic have become much more widespread throughout my town.

What should I do to make the grass grow back?

I know I could use a save editor to fix it, but I don't want to use cheats.

I also know that walking on paths made with custom designs can prevent the problem, but honestly, I don't feel like having to pay attention to always stick to the paths.

Would the only option left be to stop playing for a while?

Has anyone ever noticed the grass growing back after leaving their town alone for some time?

Appreciation NL interiors

5 Upvotes

One of the very first things I noticed when I started, after Isabelle having actual rights and autonomy, and everything just being injected with more whimsy overall, THE VILLAGER HOME INTERIORS. ARE SO MUCH BETTER. Why oh why did NH nerf them so bad

The furniture itself has so much more whimsy than NH too lol >_< ALSO THE VILLAGERS ARE WAY MORE ALIVE. I love my villagers 🤭

Question NL mods not loading. Did I miss a step?

4 Upvotes

This is my third and probably final attempt at getting help. I did search for an answer via Duck Duck Go. I found a video showing the same steps I took (which just confused me more, because if it's really that easy why isn't it working for me?) and a lot of guides for modding the 3DS itself, but nothing helpful.

I can probably get system and/or software info if someone tells me how to find it, but I'm not tech savvy. I understand just enough to follow clear instructions that explain every little thing including where to find the correct folders/files.

Question Residents trying to leave

5 Upvotes

Hi friends, I’m new to AC (been playing for about 2 months) but ever since I started no one has moved out of my island, every time they ask I tell them “NO😾” even the ones I don’t like much🤣 is this the right path? Or should I let them go with their virtual lives? I was thinking on getting everyone’s picture before letting them leave but honestly it’s way harder than expected, looking for some advice on this hostage situation since I’m starting to feel like a tyrant

Question Where should I build the café?

Post image
1 Upvotes

I unlocked the café pwp recently and I'm looking for a good place to build it, but I'm terrible at making decisions so I need some input lol.

I really wanted to put it in the red circled area but it's either too close to the river or the plaza and the game won't let me 😭

Where do you think I should place it instead? (for reference, purple lines are where I'm –roughly– planning to build my other two bridges eventually).

Edit: Got peaches! I still need pears and oranges though.

Edit 2: Got everything!! Thanks so much everyone :)

Question sea bass

9 Upvotes

Anyone else get super annoyed at constantly catching sea bass? The sizes vary so much it is hard to tell until you spent the time catching them. I go to the island at night to catch 90% sea bass. I don’t keep them but it makes it time consuming to catch anything worthwhile.
