Will you be using ‘THE path’ ?

[fairyring]

nope. i like my island to be different than what’s trending, so i make all my own designs. it’s pretty though for sure!

 

[Serabee]

Yeah, to me this is one of the few custom paths that makes my game look more like an Animal Crossing game than less like one. I’m sure at some point I’ll get restless and replace them, but that’s fine. I am not in a hurry to “finalize” my town- I always want it to evolve and express what interests me in the moment.

Sums up my feelings on the path and my island exactly
And... I just used this path to spruce up Dobie's yard... and it's so perfect!
I don't necessarily like to follow trends but it just looks SO much better than the plain dirt path outside his house!

I may have just gone around and changed all my forest paths to this path... Even with the lack of footsteps, the design is completely superior to anything that is available through terraforming (in my opinion, at least).


I love this variant!! I would so use it, but it’s weird that there are no panels for the left side of the path, for either the flower or footprint design... How did you get around this issue?

They’re meant to accent the regular path I believe, so you’d use one or two of them in addition to the regular path.

Yeah, the vanilla dirt path is not great! No amount of realistic audio can distract me from the perfectly symmetrical painted on dirt. I’d love to see how you used it!

I'll post pics once his yard is complete! He's one of my favorite villager, so I spoil him

And I like the regular dirt for flowerbeds, but as an actual path it's certainly lacking


It'd be awesome if they could do some improvements to path making options. Like, if they:
-Gave them their own custom design section, like pro-designs
-Allow you to customize their texture (as in, you could select if you wanted it to sound like stone, or if characters walking on it would kick up dirt)
-Make it so that, when placed with in construction mode, it WOULDN'T be able to be accidentally removed with Y.

I'd say paths are one of the more popular custom designs to make, and I think those options would be well appreciated by a lot of people!

I really like this! But I don't see the creator code on the pics at all

Oohh... that would make sense. Still odd that there’s no left side accents in that case, but I’ll keep that in mind! If I get a few extra design slows free, maybe I’ll take a couple of the flower ones to spruce up the more bare dirt path design!

 

[marshallows]

is currently using it. not all over the island though. developers please give us more design slots i'm struggling here since day 1.

[Imaginetheday]

I love this, but no. It takes up too many design slots. Plus, I don't have a natural, foresty island, which is where I think it looks best.

 

[Boccages]

Yup. I’m using it. But very seldomly. I’m wary of replacing the paths in my town with custom-made ones?

 

[Misha]

I was sure I wasn't going to use any custom paths this time (I don't like the sounds and I kind of like not having to bother tbh) but when I saw this one I got so happy. I'll try it in my game at some point and see how I feel about it then. It does invoke exactly the type of feel I wanted my island to have, so honestly if I get over the sound thing, I will probably use it a lot.

 

[xTech]

It looks nice but no I probably won't be using it because it also looks a little bit bland. I personally like my paths to have a bit of depth to them, like little cracks or bits of pebbles/gravel mixed in with the dirt, otherwise I just get bored with them pretty quickly.

 

[WynterFrost]

I actually love this path. I tried pathing with the ones given in game and they just didn't give me the right vibe, my fav part is the shadow on the border giving it that 3D feel that was missing for me

 

[UglyMonsterFace]

I've always had a rule not to use paths made by other people unfortunately so I'll have to say no, but I wish I could! But I really just want my island to be 100% mine. It's very pretty though!

 

[rezberri]

idk!! i really would like to but i also kind of want to use things that the game provides?? like idk if i want any qr codes on my island, but i also want pretty table cloths and bed covers so we shall see. but if i use any custom design path, it will most definitely be this one and a stepping stone one.

 

[Clock]

Looks cool, but i’ll stick to my own ideas.

 

[fluttershy300]

I was thinking about it but I might go with a similar path that is if my attempt at making heart paths using the paths they give you fail. It looks like this:

 

[loveclove]

I would if I had more slots I'm literally using all of them right now

I don't plan on using any paths just because it's so much work to lay them down. ^o^;>

But regarding this one specifically, won't it look weird when the grass turns brown in autumn, and when snow is on the ground in winter? Are there versions of the path for every season? Won't it be a major pain to redo the paths every time the season changes? Or am I misunderstanding something, and the grass isn't actually part of the pattern?

Almost all paths look bad on winter tho, I'm struggling with that right now. Mostly just looking forward for it to end

 

[GEEBRASS]

I used to be in the "I'd rather have the immersive footfall sounds" camp, but after experimenting with a couple custom paths and then The Path, I'm 100% converted.

 

[Corrie]

WOW!! I was going to use a white brick path but this path is just stunning!! Now I can't decide!!
