Terraforming teach me to be patience. One my favorite part of my island,is the bamboo forest/canyon. It took me a lot of time creating that part(I'm still working on it). Guys, take your time. AC is not competitive. Enjoy the process. Look for ideas and make your version of it. Make it better. And remember this game,got release recently. Meaning, updates and new furniture and other stuff are coming next week,or next month and next year. Have a nice day/night.

Important thing to remember about cliff construction: You can only have 8 ramps in total on your island! I got carried away with hills early on and planned a ton of ramps for my final design, only to find that I was over on my ramp count by 6 of ramps. The same can be said about bridges, but you can use land bridges and easily terraform around that problem. They really need to let us just have 16 total ramps or bridges, rather than limiting us to 8 of each.

A good middle ground, is to work with the land rather than go full island reformat. I'm keeping my general river layout and cliff placements, other than tearing down one tier-3 small cliff, and the only really big change is, I'm tearing a "caldera" into the middle of a tier-2 cliff, putting waterfalls around the edges, filling it with cedars and the campsite. Instant woodsy area.

i love your island! i like that it isnt cluttered qnd full of items, but it still feels organised. it feels like a neighborly town, rather than a cluttered bunch of paths and waterfalls

I think the same thing. But it's likely because of 2 reasons: 1 - we know where everything is on our island, whereas when we visit other island, we don't, so it seems bigger. 2 - our island isn't developed and our buildings are still in the same position they were at the beginning. Remember, at the start we only had access to a little area, so we had to make the most of that space for buildings. If your buildings are still in their original position and not spread out, the rest of the island you can now access is still empty, but since you only go as far as your buildings, it seems small. Once developed with paths and buildings are moved around, it will seem bigger, because you're not running only 10 feet from building to building.

i use the "stepping stone" path, but instead of just using one type of path, i use both types of stone paths or both types of dirt paths to make kind of like a checkerboard! i love how it looks more like stones, flowers don't grow into it (unless its the dirt), and it looks fancy all in one!

Chloe Moffett I did this a while back and villagers near it stopped appearing around my island. It’s probably been fixed but I had a path like this with someone in the mountains and he just stayed there

In case people weren’t aware, the way he has curved the path to the entrance of the houses - you can have the paths right up to the doorstep, just stand sideways to the front door and poop them down. That’s how I have mine and I think it looks great 👍🏻

This was great help! Applying a lot of your tips into my island. Thank you for these, I always think about the cleanup you have to make afterwards.

I’m so glad I found this video!! I was wondering when I’d be able to start terraforming. And logged on this morning and kk slider is finally coming to my island. So this video was my crash course for it! Thanks❤️❤️❤️🤗🤗

I've used the flower bed tip to create a whole flower field and I put my double waterfall on the far side of my island leading into my nature park : ) I just put in some stepping stones for the river on the cliff where I moved my house. Learned those from some of your other videos

I feel like this is the first youtuber who knows what I need and want to watch 🤩

I love your videos!! My island looks soooo much better now! Great ideas with the creative use of paths!

I've been having a really really hard time curving my rivers. Would really appreciate if you took the time make a video on that. =]

You can also use paths to make shapes of sorts, you can make hearts, flower petals with like a fountain in the middle, just lots of creative ways to combine the different shapes and might make a good little map marker or cute thing more than anythinf

This is so well detailed yet to the point! Thank you so so much for this! Best guide out there!!

Thank you for this info! I’m hoping I get terraforming unlocked soon so this has been super helpful! 😊

Thanks for the tips! I honestly had no idea how to start or what to do, so this was really helpful ☺️

Especially at the beginning, I say take the 2 paths of the color you want to have as the main path of your island, either brick or the rock color paths. As you expand, you can unlock more and create cool designs.

I needed help with terraforming, this is perfect!

Thank you. This was very helpful

this was really helpful!!

I’m loving all of the tips! They really help me, and I’m sure many others, improve my island. Also, you have a fourth level? I only have three.

I wanted a boardwalk along part of my beach! I loved that in New Jersey and I really like it in my game! My villagers actually hang out there eating snacks and playing with "games" and things that you'd find on the boardwalk. I also fell in love with a town in Northern Jersey that has brick streets from years gone by to preserve the Victorian Era design of the town. I wanted to just share that with you. 😊 It's really neat that in this game you can make it your own town! I love it and I do leave one end of the beach without artificial lighting because my villagers have said they like that there are still parts of the island that you can actually see the night sky because there aren't street lights everywhere. I took that as a hint and left one end all natural for them except for a campfire and a hammock and a log stool but the rocks on that end I left totally natural for them and I do find them out there looking at the night sky. Heck I find myself out there looking at the night sky! This game can be so beautiful

very informative vid but I really suffered watching you ignore the Madagascan Sunset Moth

This was very helpful. Thank you.
