Ask Questions about New Leaf here! (Read first before creating a thread)

When you add your best friends, does it show you all your friends that have New Leaf, or does it show all your friends and you just have to know which of them play? ...and if it does show all your friends that play New Leaf, do you have to visit their town or have them visit yours beforehand?

Hm, but in a way you can also make more Bells by having that ordinance instilled (the one where things are more to buy and sell) but if you want to change it to any other it's 20K a change and a day for it to go into effect (unless I am mistaken).

What time does Nook's housing store close?

 

[AL64]

oh thanks anothergc. I'm a bit disappointed it's only one letter
They why should I try to write good letters to them after the first one, there's no motivation. Sad

About the Setsuban beans, are they permanent? Like, would they ever run out if you use them too much?

I'd like to restate this question. Sorry for the double post, I'm just really curious.

8 pm.

Setsubun beans- mine have never run out.

In previous games animals would show me letters that were sent by a human player just a few days ago, it's not just one letter. I think anothergc was just referring to when you had to send out a letter as a task to Nook that animal showed it to you...I don't know, but it's not just the single first letter, it's every letter. That's why the animals warn you to "make a good impression in what you write" because they are very socially active and will show it spontaneously to anybody.

*Captain Falcon voice* HYUSH!! I love those things, a shame the next Setsuban is so far away. Maybe I can buy some off a Japanese player.

I haven't read this whole thread so sorry if this has already been asked, but in New Leaf when you lay down a pattern on the ground and then you go and edit it, will it change the pattern that was on the ground to the edited version like in old animal crossings? Is it the same for that community project that lets you have a picture taking face cutout thing? Thanks

Yes, the pattern on the ground will change if it's edited. For the community project - I'm not sure. :c I haven't built one.

Anything that has a Pattern on it will be automatically changed if you overwrite it. This includes remade furniture so i figure the picture board would change as well.
Patterns are basically set textures, so they won't stay the same if you change them because of the way textures work in general. (I've done a bit of 3D modeling in the past, it's fun to know how it works :3)

 

[Punchyleaf]

Really? That's odd. Could've sworn the cloth remade in furniture stays that way, whether you change the pattern or not. Same with sign boards and the cutouts.
Maybe I read or was told wrong. Can't remember if I asked Zen or saw it elsewhere.

 

[Tavi]

I recently put some remakes with patterns up in my shop because I couldn't drop them on the ground (they turn into yellow leaves instead of red). Found out I can't drop them on the ground because they have patterns attached to them, and the second character had to copy that pattern into their Designs or it would lose the pattern on the furniture when they bought it.

So the color part of the remake will stay but the pattern won't if it's on copied because it doesn't know where to pull the texture from because it doesn't exist anymore, if that makes sense.

Honestly, I'm not sure how the cutouts work. I don't have one setup in my town, but just thinkin' how patterns works for everything else I assume it's the same case.

Weird question. Is there a history or something for the dream addresses that you visit that shows the last 10 or something like that? Or a way to mark a certain number of dream addresses as favorites or something so you can return easily without writing down the number?

 

[Aerio]

Sorry if this has been asked already, but I have a question regarding the starter questions~
I know that they determine what type of face you'll have, but what about the hair? I heard that on earlier games, the hair was random, or at least, that's what I've gathered. I'm not entirely sure.. This will be my first Animal Crossing so i'm clueless, sorry D;

 

[Punchyleaf]

The hair is set for certain eye shapes. But most seem to have the same hair. I think it's only like 3-4 that have other hair, but even then, it's the less-than-desirable ones.

 

[Blackbeltnick95]

Has anyone seen what a thunderstorm is like in this game yet? I know it really isn't that season yet in-game, but there may have been people who have time travelled. I was just wondering, because in the past games, they were really cool to just listen to and play in. Or sitting in your house and seeing it light up from a flash of lightning. I wonder what it'll be like in this game. Like visual wise.

Well no one bothered to reply. Thanks everyone lol.

It doesn't really matter anymore though being that in WiiFolderJosh's latest New Leaf video, there was a thunderstorm, and the video itself pretty much answered my question.

Ooh, okay! Thank you for the quick reply~

sorry, I dont think there is something like that...

you need to type the 12 number each time or let the system random...

Does anyone happen to know how many different villagers are in NL? (ie City Folk had 210, WW had 148 I think)
I know I could go onto the wiki and count, but I haven't seen most new villagers and don't want to see them all.
