Wow, that's actually pretty cool. How did you even do that?

As i said previously my friend did it for me, in the link I posted before I explained how it came about :). Although I didn't think it was possible to do unless you had an older Japanese console.

Your town and island look really cool! I personally wouldn't hack my game but I have nothing against people who do it on their own games or to help people. I just wish we could do that cool stuff legally, I really want houses and pwps on the beach and pond rocks and river bamboos...

The island is mine, the town is regigiygas but I'm sure they could do the same on their island, I wish I knew how to do it myself.

Ohhhhh ask yourfriend
 
I love your map! Nice tiny little river ^o^

I think the hacks are super cool and I love the idea of actually being able to place things where I want and being able to get rid of the dirt patches. But I'm too paranoid about corruption, so I won't be trying it ~

Yea, I agree with you. I'm already paranoid already about game corruption, and hacking would make me even more paranoid xD

An older version of ACNL had a glitch that allowed people to place PWPs anywhere. It's not possible to do this with copies of the game released in other regions, which were released with that glitch patched. What's being discussed here is the modification of the game's RAM... And that's all I'm gonna say, considering the site's rules. You're on the Internet, details are easy enough to find. :p

I really like seeing how people have developed their towns and changed their geography. Palm trees on the mainland, pine trees on the southern half of your town, multiple waterfalls, rock formations, PWPs next to structures (if I can fit a tree I can fit a lamp, Isabelle!), being able to place villager's houses where you'd like without spending hours plot-resetting... Honestly, I'm surprised by all the design restrictions in the game, considering what's possible and has been possible in other construction management games for decades now. Seriously, what's with the pine tree restrictions?

Yea, I've seen that glitch too. I even went to a dream town that had public works projects in the ocean, on the beach, in the rivers, it was pretty cool. If I can remember where I found the dream address I'll definatly share it with you guys ^_^

Ah ok thanks, unfortunately doesn't look like I'll be able to do it :(.

I agree about the restrictions, I'd love more control over house and rock placement in my town.

Man, I wish I could use some hacks on my town. I looked at LeafTools but sadly my 3DS isn't compatible with it. If I could use hacks I would remove some of the rocks in my town, remove some ponds, straighten the river, and in general just fix up the imperfections to it.
 
I would love to just be able to put pwp's wherever I like, or some houses on the beach. ;_; If only I'd known about this before updating :( Wish there was a workaround. >.< What if you did the editing using someone else's DS who hasn't upgraded, and then pop the cartridge back into your own :confused:?

That is possible. You can edit your town on someone else's 3ds who hasn't updated to 9.5.0-23 while using your cartridge and SD card.

oh sweet thanks for telling me! here's hoping I can find a irl friend that didn't update :eek:
 
I think if I had an extra copy of the game, and if my DS didnt have the newest update I think I would try it out just to see what it was like. I just recently restarted my town so even if I wasnt up to date I would be afraid of something going terribly wrong. (But I think I read somewhere you make an extra copy of your save before doing anything incase this happens) Ive seen a bunch of people do it on Tumblr and Ive seen a lot of criticism for it, but I honestly dont see what the big deal is and why people are getting so upset ?\_(ツ)_/?

I think I remember seeing a post on tumblr saying that hacking "ruins the financial infrastructure of the game for everyone else and to please think before being selfish" like lmaaoooooo okay "financial infrasturcture" sure
