I was dumb when I made my custom-design signs and I deleted the designs without first saving them with Mabel. I can grab the images with my other game by going into my town in a dream, but is there anything I can do with that? I know about stripping the information from a QR code to make it editable, but obviously I can't make a QR code from something I took from Wendell. Is there any way to get these images back in savable, editable form other than just recreating them?
 
I actually already had to recreate one and did like it better the second time. Thanks! :)
 
When you do errands for villagers and they give each other furniture that way, does it appear in their houses afterward?

Technically, it could. I assume that it'd go into their inventory, I can say anything for certain, but sometimes they display stuff from their inventory.

Thank you! I'm trying to rearrange their furniture so I guess that means I shouldn't run errands anymore. >.>
 
They certainly do. If they are getting a gift, it's almost certain to show up in their homes. If they are getting back a lost item, there is still a high probability it'll show up. Same goes for clothes. If they put it on, what they're wearing has a high chance of showing up in their homes. If they don't put it on, it'll have a good chance of showing up. If you want to control their homes or keep them at 100%, you need to deny those requests. It's no big deal; they'll say, "Yeah, I should give it myself anyway." If I don't care about a particular house, I'll deliver the goods. It's fun when it's a wallpaper or carpet, because those just disappear.
 
I have another question about giving away villagers. If I want to give away a villager in the future and avoid any villager from someone's void from moving in how would I prevent that? Would I ask that person to visit a town with 10 villagers to avoid a voided villager from coming to my town when they come to pick up my villager?

It doesn't have to be a town with 10 villagers per se, they just have to visit someone else before visiting your town- clearing their void.

Thank you! I kind of wonder why people who do giveaways don't seem to ask that though. I'm kind of paranoid about random villagers moving in. >.>

I'm guessing, like don't run in someone else's town, that clearing your void is part of common courtesy before trading with someone. You should also warn people if you have someone in void before trading with them. I think most people have a full town so they don't worry about this too much?

i thought it had to be ten in order to 'clear a void' because of they visit a town with less, they could get the villager that that town voided, etc.
 
Also if I have someone visit my 10 villager town and on that same day I TT a villager out, would there be a chance I could have a voided villager move in?

Yes, that could happen of the town they visited had 9 villagers or less, because of that it's preferable to visit a full town so you don't give someone an unwanted move in.

I'm not sure about this one.. Assuming that the villager isn't in boxes yet when that someone visited, you're probably safe. I've seen a case where someone let their villager be adopted and the next day, they got a random move in from the adopter. It depends on when/how the game acknowledges how many villagers you have (which I haven't found the answer for)
 
I have a silly question~

Is there a safe way to TT forward without losing villagers? I've heard a few different tricks mentioned, like waiting for a villager to ping that they're moving, telling them they can't, and then just immediately save/quit. Apparently you can reload to any day safely afterward; it just locks everyone into your town. But does it actually work? o:

yes it works
 
Here's an odd one:
If I get the upgrade for my train station, can I change the color of the basic train station (ie blue, green, or red ) in addition to changing the theme? Or is it only the modern, zen, or fairy tale themes?

Nope. You're basically stuck with the basic color of your train station unless you re-model it to the modern, zen or fairy tale.
 
Here is a random question. What is the gyroid that says "Waaaah!"? I would like to search for it, but I don't know what it's called. :)
