New Horizons F.A.Q. – Ask Questions Here!

How does cataloging another person's items work?

If you are invited to someone's island to catalog items, you just pick them up and drop them again.
They are then automatically listed in your Nook Store app and you can order them yourself.

I have a question too ...

Are the Garbage-Heap Flooring and Garbage-Heap Wall even in the game?
I read somewhere you get them by fishing and catching 15 trash items,
but I'm sure I caught more than 15 trash items and still haven't received them.

What am I doing wrong?

I forgot the exact number so it might be more than 15. Easily way to get more trash is to check if you landed on trash island when looking for a new villagers. It also could be you need to catch a specific number of a type of trash. Eventually you'll get it but I wouldn't worry about it unless you were planning on using the it for a room.

Thank you for your reply. I just fond out you get both recipes (seperately) at some point after you catch an empty can.
You get the inspiration for the recipes, similar to getting the King Tut Mask DIY after getting a gold nugget from a rock.
 
What counts towards the villager favor objective that isn't totally obvious (if any), and which ones don't put items in their inventory or houses?
I know this is likely viewable elsewhere, but I like having multiple sources.
 
Do your villagers talk about people who talked to them in dreams as they did in NL?

I think it's just the obvious ones (delivery request, fish/bug request, and lost item). Of those, I think only lost item is "safe" since your villagers will wear delivery gifts and display fish and bugs in their houses. I don't think buried treasure hunt counts as a favor.

I have a question of my own. I had a meteor shower last night and cast 20+ wishes with 3 different characters. I was able to find 20 star fragments on the beach today with my first character pretty easily, but only found 2 so far with my second character and 3 with my third character despite cleaning the beaches and going in and out of buildings to try to spawn more. Does anyone know why I'm having such a difficult time finding star fragments with those characters?
 
How often are we allowed to bump??
Bumping on The Bell Tree is defined as posting the word "bump" or other variant for the sole purpose of bringing the thread to the top of the board index for increased visibility. To avoid excessive and unnecessary posting on the forum, users must abide by the following guidelines when bumping:
  • Threads in trading boards should not be bumped until the thread is inactive for at least four hours.
  • Do not bump trading threads belonging to another user.
  • Due to the slower rate of posting in the Animal Crossing amiibo Card Post Office board, threads may only be bumped after eight hours of inactivity.
  • Threads in the Nook's Cranny board may be bumped after two hours of inactivity.
  • The bumping of discussion threads is not permitted; i.e. you may not post solely to bump the thread. You must have something on-topic to say when posting in a discussion thread, and the thread topic must still be relevant.
  • Posting a contributory reply in a general discussion thread is permitted and is not classified as a bump, no matter the age of the thread.

Do we know anything about villager clothing choices apart from their style preferences and color preferences?

For instance:

Are they more likely to wear something if you have higher friendship?

Are they more likely to wear newer gifted items than older gifted items?

If an item isn't to their style or color preferences, will they ever wear it again?
 
I designed a custom flag for someone, uploaded it, and they are using it as their flag. If I delete the design, would their flag disappear?

I remember someone said that on the forum that it wouldn't but I'm unsure.

Is that correct or have any truth?
 
How do you obtain the grape backpack? It says seasonal so what season is it available?
 
I’m considering tting forward to winter but want to ask people’s opinions on tting that far ahead; sorry if this isn’t the right place to ask. I wasn’t sure if this was worth making another thread about. My worry is that by the time the season comes without tting, that it won’t be as fun. I only tt a day forward or back. Would people recommend or recommend against tting that far ahead?

I've been avoiding tting that far. I make sure to stay within the week or month at least. I want to have some fish/bugs to catch by the time winter comes around for NH islands

Since there are no long-term consequences to TTing, it's completely to you. If you TT to winter now, you obviously won't enjoy it as much later, but if you don't TT and you get burned out on ACNH by then, you may not enjoy it much at all.
