Nope, only received a t-shirt from them.

I think tshirt is the first one they send you so as you've only recently started it would make sense.  Think its one every month or so, I've got quite a few dal items now

I still don't have the autumn diy nevermind lovely little planes! 

 

I got that today.

Now that I have a wad of cash from selling turnips, plan for the next week just making bridges and slopes on my island to make it easier to move around.

 

Currently I have all the buildings on the main island because easier to access everyone but I will need to do some reorganising it's getting a bit full now.

[SteveH]

Have they changed how tree shaking works, or am I just a numbskull? Shook a peach tree a dozen times or so and got several branches, 2 acorns and 2 pine cones.

DAL items are triggered by receiving points for flying places. First flight of the day to a mystery tour or Harv's island gets you a point. And then you get points for flying to other people's islands. Maximum you can get a day is 3 points.

 

11 different items. DAL tee is the first item at 5 points and model plane is 300 points.

 

The acorns / pine cones have been added for autumn (or fall as they like to call it) and fall quite rarely compared to branches.

[gospvg]

300 points! for the Model Plane. I am never geting that!

[Number 28]

Same.

 

I had the 'bug' earlier where nobody at all shows up on my island. I reset and standard Gulliver has appeared...

Sorry what is this bug & how do you reset?

I have the rug NPC today I forgot the name.

[Number 28]

Ah, just something I think Stumpyjohn ran into the other day. You do laps of your island and nobody is around. You're meant to have a visitor every day. By reset I just mean literally shut the game down and turn it back on. Rug person (male in Japan/Korea, female elsewhere) is Saharah, you won't have anybody else at the same time (maybe Celeste or Wisp, I think they're independent from the others).

Thanks, always wondered what triggered each freebee in the post

Earlier on I was doing loads of flying to visit other peoples islands and as part of a flower watering group.  Then at the end of August I was doing quite a few mysterious islands to get ones suitable for efficient palm tree bug hunting and that must have helped me get to 300 points.  Sad that its the final gift

The bug is that there is no NPC visitor on your island on a weekday.  I had it a week or so ago and in my case it was CJ.

I fixed it by closing the game and fully rebooting my Switch.  I had earlier tried just restarting the game and loading a different game but that did not resolve it

 

[Number 28]

Just a plain ol' restart worked for me.

[Tony]

I'll put a picture in spoilers of what points you need for each DAL item as some people like the surprise.

 

Spoiler

 

Wonder what the Mario furniture will look like that was mentioned in the direct.

[Number 28]

Mario themed items were conspicuous in their absence. I expect other classic franchises will arrive eventually (Zelda, Starfox, FZero, Metroid, Donkey Kong, etc). I wish that instead of drip feeding themed sets of furniture via visitors that then become obsolete, they could expand on the basics, i.e. extra pattern slots, more default patterns to put on the ground, new fences/hedges, bridges, inclines. Even a new tree. A new tree would be transformative.

Bring back the banana and tropical fruit trees too!

I think some of the datamining has indicated that vegetables are in there but then that could be discarded stuff thats not been fully removed rather than incomplete stuff thats coming in a future update

Posted this in the other thread as well, but in case anyone missed it, got 649 price for bells this PM at Nooks.

I haven’t had a campsite visitor for like two weeks is that normal.

Same here now that you mention it. In fact I think it's been longer than 2 weeks on my island, I wonder if they have changed the frequency at all?

[StumpyJohn]

I've had a couple in the last 2 weeks, Rosie a couple of days ago and I cant remember who last week.

It's random with the chance increasing depending on how many days since the last camper visit.  The maximum chance is just  20% though which you get to after 6 days of no visitor

[Number 28]

Anyone had this?

I'm trying to give Fauna a gift and it can't be selected. It's a fossil and I'm thinking it's quite probable I've given her the same fossil before. Does it not let you give the same gift twice?

 

[SteveH]

Not seen that before? You can definitely give the same fossil twice. I'm not being rude, but it's definitely one you have had assessed?

I'm pretty sure it was assessed. I'm also pretty sure you can gift unassessed anyway, they just don't have much value and the response you get is rather muted (ingrates!)

Thanks! I went for a wisened old Japanese man look. It would be nice if there were a beat up version. P.S. Check your mail.

I've never seen that and I've given out dozens of fossils as presents and there must have been duplicates from time to time.

Villagers definitely accept the same fish or bug as gifts so would expect the same for other things too

It's probably a bug, have you tried giving her a different wrapped present or giving that one to another villager?

Could also try unwrapping and re-wrapping it

Only other thing I can think of is that you have wrapped something that is 'non giftable' rather than wrapping a fossil

[Number 28]

Yeah, I did have another wrapped gift in my inventory that was selectable. I'm not sure what I did with the offending gift now. I probably stuck it back in the pile so I'll never know what it was exactly.

 

Oh yeah, I accidentally smashed a rock in my perfect rock garden earlier today...but luckily I shut the game down before it could save. Let's hope it's not secretly keeping count for a future Resetti update.

Thanks for the two awesome hats!

 

Both are amazing even if I can only enjoy them in the privacy of my island house due to  my clothing set being mandated by my island philosophy and habeen set since the first or second week. It would freak out my islanders if I were to be seen gadding about in a jazzy new hat, not least due to the facial tattoos that none of them have seen...

 

I am now in a significant dilemma as my rules do not allow me to accept things from other islands (unless I buy them their on a visit). I may be able to rationalise this as it is a surprise present though. I don't know if I am allowed to return the favour as that would make it like a trade but very much wish to thank you. I shall need to ponder my way out of the moral cave I have bricked myself into...

 

 

[Number 28]

Ah sorry, I forgot about your rules (probably owing to the fact it's a bit nuts, no offence )  If you want to pass them on, sell or bin it's fine, they only take 20 weeds to craft. If anyone else fancies one I can knock it up btw, I have thousands of weeds.

I was brought up well enough to know that I should not sell or regift a present!

 

They will be placed into my storage and worn privately on occasion and, meanwhile, I will work out how  to resolve their appearance on Pazuzu.

 

 

[Capwn]

Is anyone having problems with controllers with AC specifically? My sis bought a new pad and found her controller was drifting, is this more likely to be the game or the controller?

[Number 28]

'Joycon drift' has become a well known gaming phrase hasn't it? An issue with the Switch as notorious as the red ring of death (ok, maybe not that common/bad.)

 

 

[gospvg]

A quality of life improvement I wished they would make, if you are in your house and have a crafting station it uses the material you have in storage.
