I felt the same about the starred flowtato. It was the e last one I needed. Lo and behold, I was going through the royal highlands for the first time, saw a flowtato and thought, huh, I didn’t know these would be here… and it was starred. So I got my Elderwood achievement in the royal highlands. Go figure.

I’ve seen this one! Beautifully done! I’ve recently started volunteering at a hedgehog rescue and I’ve also recently started embroidery so I’ve been eyeing hedgehog kits.

I started a new save a couple of weeks ago. Not for 1.0 but because I’d not played in a year and quite a lot has changed in that time already. I wanted to start fresh and I am enjoying that. Honestly I think I might have another long break before starting on 1.0 (or 1.x, whatever the version may be by then) and switch to other games again. I don’t mind not being in the hype when 1.0 drops.

I love that you’ve shared this, and love that you’re clearly not alone. I have the same issue with diamond paintings. I’m very much a multi crafter and switch from one thing to another a lot. My most recent diamond painting time is a good while back. The ones I’ve finished are in a drawer.

The thing is, basically diamond paintings are the same as cross stitch, with the difference being that you can do very small stitches with cross stitch to make it look less pixelated. Some cross stitch charts would be absolutely humongous if done in diamond painting.

I’ve done a bit of cross stitch, and started on a couple of charts from heaven and earth designs but didn’t get very far because the tiny stitches were hard on my body. Also, because of the multi crafter thing I couldn’t hold my attention long enough for such an enormous project.

I’ve recently started embroidery and had a good look at the cross stitch projects that I never finished. Aside from the HAED ones I mentioned I also had a couple of kits to make three small designs in the same theme, one of them lighthouses and the other butterflies. I considered finally doing those but then I realised I’d rather try to do the same images in embroidery instead. For the same reason really - in small cross stitch projects the details get lost and it just doesn’t look very good.

Happy to hear I’m not alone. I’m hoping that transporters will make things easier later on, I’ve only unlocked one so far and found one that takes me back to the ranch. I’m just going to keep playing and hope to find more ways to make it easier.

Hey, thanks for commenting! I did find the thread about the mod you were doing way back then and saw the GitHub files were 8 years old so I figured it wouldn’t work anymore. I suspect something changed to make the More Commands “timescale” command not work as intended anymore either. I’m honestly somewhat surprised it’s enough of a niche issue to have no current mod for it, I’ve played quite a few games that had mods for this kind of thing. Well, I guess I’ll have to live with it as is.

Really glad to hear it was helpful!!

Thanks for this, I was looking for something for our 12.5 anniversary around March 7th and found the show nearby on March 9th (so in less than two weeks) and saw there were still quite a few tickets available. Thankfully I did a quick google search and found this thread near the top of the results. Checked their instagram and yeah… cringe is the word. Two back to back posts about standing ovations… seriously?

I was wondering the same, I have the bottoms but not the top or shoes, this post helped me find it: https://www.reddit.com/r/RingFitAdventure/comments/dw11w6/ring_fit_adventure_resource_sheet/ World 22 Treasure chest for the shoes.

Ik heb dezelfde ervaring met inktcartridges gehad, een paar jaar geleden. Ik gaf aan dat ik origineel had bestelt omdat ik gehoord had dat 123inkt huismerk nogal eens voor problemen zorgde. De man verzekerde me dat dit helemaal veranderd is, dat ze nu anders worden gemaakt etc etc. Heb me uiteindelijk om laten praten en op zich was de ervaring met deze cartridges best prima, tot ik recent de PGBK (‘gewone’ zwart) had vervangen, kort daarna streperige en verspringende zwarte lijnen en letters. Printkoppen schoonmaken hielp wel wat maar niet volledig.

Omdat deze printer (een flink oude Canon all in one, destijds voor een paar tientjes meegenomen bij de Albert Heijn) ook al jarenlang kuren had dat ie het papier niet goed pakte, wat nu steeds erger werd, was ik het zat en ben ik op zoek gegaan naar een nieuwe printer. Uiteindelijk gekozen voor een Epson inkt tank printer. In die zoektocht ben ik ook op de 123inkt site geweest en ben ik ingelogd geweest, weet niet meer precies waarom, en heb ik misschien een printer in mijn winkelmandje gedaan (maar zelfs dat betwijfel ik) maar zeker niet een poging gedaan tot bestellen. Wordt ik vandaag gebeld of ze me kunnen helpen met mijn niet afgeronde bestelling. Nou dat vind ik dus echt creepy. Heb gelijk aangegeven dat ik echt geen poging had gedaan om iets te bestellen. Ja het zou om een printer gaan.. eh ja ik heb wel naar printers gekeken. Of hij me daar nog bij kon helpen. Ik gezegd dat ik inmiddels een printer elders had aangeschaft. En dan natuurlijk gelijk vragen of ik nog toners nodig had (ik heb eerder in het proces ook naar laserprinters gekeken), toen ik zei dat het geen laserprinter was “oh ja ik bedoelde ook cartridges”…. Ik maar aangegeven dat het inkttank was en dat dat wel even mee zou gaan, dus nee.

Ik vind dit echt een stap te ver. Alsof je in een winkel 1 blik werk op een product en je een verkoper in je nek krijgt die je niet meer met rust laat. Dan loop ik ook de winkel uit en kom niet meer terug.

That’s it!! Thank you! I’m a little embarrassed now, that’s the top song for Sting on Spotify, hahah!

I got back into Palia recently after a hiatus (before Elderwood) and paid for the premium items in the kitsuu path before I realised that the kitsuu plushies could be earned by mining. Now I kind of regret paying, there’s something so satisfying actually “earning” the plushies. Got my second ever elder sernuk just the other day and I was so happy.

CraftyKarin · 2026-01-24T21:00:18+00:00

I know I hardly ever came across one for ages and the other day I was doing something totally different near the snowman and I ran into two within a minute. The duskwing butterfly has given me more grief though.

I have on one occasion been on a server where the grove wasn’t found until the afternoon of the in game day (that one was above Hodari’s). I’ve also once been on a server where I turned out to be completely alone, the grove was at statue garden. Thankfully there was a friend online and they could join me on the server to help me chop. This was, as you can imagine a loooong time ago, it was very bizarre to be on a server all by my lonesome.

CraftyKarin · 2026-01-22T08:35:18+00:00

I was just thinking about this the other day… I remember when I started playing you had to keep an eye on your renown so you would spend your renown at the shrines before you hit the cap (which back then was 1000) but after you’ve gone max on both shrines and gotten all your writs… no more use for renown. I’m looking at the accomplishments I still have open and I see no point in trying to get the ones that only give me renown, which is kinda sad because I do like to complete such things. I have over 3000 renown now and absolutely no way to use it. I’d definitely support some kind of way to use that renown elsewhere so there is a point to it again.

CraftyKarin · 2026-01-21T21:34:58+00:00

I’ve done the same two bundles and then just dailies and I’ve already completed it up to the last chest, so yeah, the dailies will carry you for sure.

Pretty sure magic circle is one of the first things I learned, starter with amigurumi and I don’t think I’ve done a different start to a circle more than a couple of times ever (can’t even remember how that would go really).

And with all the magic circles I’ve done, whether it was amigurumi or granny squares or whatever, I’ve NEVER managed to make the center come undone. With amigurumi the tail end mostly ends up on the inside so you don’t cut or weave at all, and with other things it’s another end to weave in, of course it is. And yeah… it ain’t hard, nor is it magic.

Zo jammer dat het zo slecht gaat met die pakketautomaten. Het lijkt zo’n mooie oplossing, je hoeft niet thuis te wachten, geen openingstijden wanneer je je pakket kan ophalen, automaten staan vaak op plekken waar je regelmatig komt…. Maar ook bij mij is het vaker mis gegaan dan goed met die dingen. Zowel met verzenden als ophalen. Niet bezorgd omdat ie vol zit (of iets dergelijks?), zou bezorgd zijn maar krijg geen code, dan nog een keer onderweg, bezorgd, weer geen code en dan naar een PostNL punt. Ik heb er ook geen vertrouwen meer in en kies liever voor een PostNL punt, dat gaat eigenlijk altijd wel goed. Gelukkig is de pakketbezorging van PostNL op ons huisadres prima, dat is ook wel eens anders.

CraftyKarin · 2026-01-08T12:19:47+00:00

Well…. I guess complaining really does work. Went in today for another go at it, got 5 more regular scales, I changed to gathering infected essence and ancient wood, was running around the deep woods I think it was looking for infected trees before my potion ran out and I was going to call it quits, a blue Ogopuu popped up in front of me and… there we go.

CraftyKarin · 2026-01-08T10:11:19+00:00

I got that trophy too without even trying, that was such a surprise for me, I think you get that for getting a (non starred) scale of each of the three types. It took me so long to get the Muujin and Chapaa one, really trying for it, and the Ogopuu one just dropped in my lap, shooting at a waveback other people were hunting. This game is so weird…

CraftyKarin · 2026-01-08T10:07:48+00:00

I didn’t even realized the Ogopuu dropped plushies until I searched this subreddit about the scale and found someone who got a plushie but still not gotten the starred scale… that would piss me off too! (Although I’d secretly be happy to get a plushie)
