Is there limit to the transfer app for NH? Like transferring save data back to system you originally transfer from?
 
The island rating is based on a point system. Having more stuff donated to the museum does not give you any more points than leaving it empty, so that's definitely not your problem! The easiest solution is definitely more stuff (flowers, items, bridges, hedges...). Try to put lots of it around, and to spread it across the island. Isabelle doesn't know if something is actually pretty so that doesn't even matter, she simply counts how many things there are 😉

Thanks for the info. I was able to get to a 4 star rating today. Yay!
 
Is this pond suitable for fishing? Or too small? Haven’t seen a fish yet.

No. Though I've heard multiple horror stories regarding that app, so I'd say the fewer times you use it, the better.

Bummer, only negative thing about that game it has its own clould save system.... which works in a lame way :/
 
Is tomorrow (1/6) the last day to catch snowflakes? Or do they stick around as long as the snowballs for snowboys (late Feb)?
 
how do you set the phrase your island character says when others visit your island via dream address? Is it through the passport?
 
When you're going through your items in storage (not the catalogue) is there a way to hide "not for sale" ones or sort so that you can tell them apart from common items? Otherwise it's hard when I'm cleaning out my storage, to know what I shouldn't get rid of. I've accidentally gotten rid of ones that can't be ordered before so now I always cross check the catalogue but it's time consuming that way.

as far as I'm aware, there unfortunately isn't a way to do this! over time you can sort of get an idea for what's reorderable and what's not purely based off memory I suppose, but it definitely can be annoying

It looks a wee bit small to me, though when I've been terraforming in the past and doing rivers, I've seen fish in smaller areas, maybe scare the fish from your other ponds/rivers and see if anything spawns? :D

Ignore me, I misread what you put, my apologies -.-

A pond has to have a 3x3 space somewhere minimum to spawn a fish. It looks like your pond is large enough, but in my experience fish are more likely to spawn in larger ponds than smaller ones. I've noticed that increasing the size of a pond from 3x3 to 4x4 makes fish appear much more often. Your pond doesn't actually have to be square, it should just have 4x4 square of water somewhere within it.
 
Usually it's me who answers questions, but right now I actually have a one myself: Can you go back to last Sunday after having already checked Nook's prices - before having reached the next Sunday - and buy turnips belatedly, then travel ahead - before the next Sunday - and sell them for the same price the Nook's have already given you, or will going backwards reset the prices for the entire week no matter what? I passed on the turnips after seeing they were 102 bells, but I of course get a big spike with a chance of 600 bells per turnip the week I decide not to buy any...

Time traveling backwards will reset the turnip prices, and if I'm not mistaken, Nintendo will purposely put you in the decreasing pattern.
 
Is there anyway to remove or replace one specific item from a villager's home?

I sold Reneigh a sea bass and she placed it in her house near the front door.

You can't remove it. You'll have to gift her something else and see if she replaces the fish There's a guide in this thread to help with furniture replacement. I think the best thing to try would be to gift her the item she previously had in the spot where she put the fish.

Thanks for the quick response.

I looked at images, and I don't think there was already an item where the sea bass is. So I guess I should try to give her something I think fits her house?

I'm just worried about gifting her something, and then she replaces something else other than the sea bass.

It'll be quite easy to get her to replace that sea bass, because its tank is a 1 by 2 tile item. This means that it can only be replaced by another item that also takes up two tiles. This is good news because if you gift her a new item of that size, it can't replace any of the items in her house that have a different footprint.

The image below should look vaguely familiar if I tell you that it's Reneigh's house. The boxes show you all the items she has, or where she could put new ones. This image was based on the game code, and it shows us that there are only two spots in her house that fit a 1x2 item: the one near the door where she put the sea bass, or the one in the middle of the room where the table is. She can't shuffle furniture around and make room, the locations are fixed.

As long as the item you give is the right size, something like a couch or a counter or a rectangular table, the only risk is that she might replace the table. But if she does do that, you can give her another one of the same item and she until she replaces the sea bass with that. And then you can fix the table by gifting her a new one. She won't be able to replace any of the other items. It's safe!
