Updated Stone Path set, now done in game so no QR code necessary :) It’s toned blue a bit too to match the stone in game more. Creator Code: MA-8755-3177-2212
Since working on the dirt patterning for a garden, I got curious how it’d look as an actual path. Not bad I think! Though it still needs some adjustments. I’ll be testing it with the actual custom path feature from the game once I unlock it in the next few days. :)
I don’t know if this is obvious to everyone but me but I just found out this cool “hack” for round custom paths. In Animal Crossing New Horizons when you finally unlock your terraforming app (also known as island designer app) there are 10 different paths you can create including custom paths.
All paths except for the custom paths have a very natural look to them around the edges + they can’t be destroyed just by pressing y + they can be rounded around the corners unlike custom paths that can look unnatural and blocky.
BUT!! There is a way to fix this problem to get the best of both worlds~
it is important to note that your custom path must have at least 1 transparent pixel to make this hack work; making all animal crossing new leaf qr code paths unusable for this hack.
The transparent paint tool is always the far right paint option for any of the color palettes. For this design I made the middle pixel of my star transparent and you can hardly tell.
So now that’s out of the way, the hack is really easy.
Lay down any of the 9 pre-made paths however you want. I chose the brick path since my custom design is brick and I wanted the sound effects to be the same. Make sure that you have it exactly how you want (with rounded corners and all) before doing step 2.
Switch to your custom design and put it on top of the pre-made path. It will act like a overlay and conform to the shape of the path beneath it.
You’re done! Step back and enjoy your finish product.
Disclaimer: Unfortunately these custom designs will still be easily destroyed if you press y while near them but the pre-made path underneath it will be left untouched.
Made some tiles in pastel colors 5 different colors and they all come with two chalk variations with cute drawings on them for outside use! They also layer on top of pathways
