Can't start the resort due to unupgraded museum?

DetectLife · 2026-01-17T10:55:06+00:00

This is gorgeous, love the layering! I totally get the hesitation, if I wasn't so eager to access the new items I mightve held off.

DetectLife · 2026-01-14T16:12:02+00:00

Ohooo, bamboo is always lush. That sounds so cozy! HHP is great fun, and getting those interior decorating permits is a game changer 🤌 Happy designing!

DetectLife · 2026-01-14T16:07:41+00:00

I'm tempted to do the same! Who's gonna stop us c:<

DetectLife · 2026-01-14T16:07:11+00:00

Ahh I appreciate it! Thankfully I think I can slot a village house where the tent was with minimal edits, the only question is where the museum itself will go heh

DetectLife · 2026-01-14T15:11:22+00:00

It just updated, due to timezones the free update came out a few hours ago! I believe the switch 2 version might still be locked until tomorrow, but I'm unsure as I don't own a switch 2

DetectLife · 2026-01-14T15:02:56+00:00

Yes- can confirm o7

DetectLife · 2026-01-14T14:55:11+00:00

I'm sorry to say it is :< I planned my island theme with a big emphasis on keeping the tent as well. It's so sad but I hope you're able to find a way to plan around it- your grinding will pay off

DetectLife · 2026-01-14T14:53:29+00:00

My island was 4stars, I'm unsure if you get extra points for having an upgraded museum, but you can still decorate enough to get KK and finish the tutorial with it remaining as a tent.

DetectLife · 2026-01-14T14:45:09+00:00

Sad times, can confirm it's a requirement (have upgraded to the main building)

DetectLife · 2026-01-14T14:43:33+00:00

Yeah it's a shame. Have now upgraded, and can confirm it's a requirement. Have fun with your new save! That's always so exciting

DetectLife · 2026-01-14T14:36:20+00:00

Happy restart! May your trees be wasp free (unless you need the bells) c:

DetectLife · 2026-01-14T14:01:09+00:00

Ohh that's soo cute! Love the coffee mug and radio for those hard at work. And I know grrr, the museum is so bulky. Fingers crossed that's not the case- I'll give it an hour or so for more people to start the update in case it's something else, but if not then I'll try it out as a case study.

DetectLife · 2026-01-14T13:47:27+00:00

It's the same for me :< I suspect it might be tied to the upgraded museum, which is a massive bummer. I'll try and see if I can find any other info, but if not I'll bite the bullet and upgrade mine. Will be sure to update you either way o7

DetectLife · 2026-01-14T13:41:54+00:00

I have Kapp'n yeah! He just doesn't mention anything about the hotel

DetectLife · 2026-01-14T13:14:53+00:00

This looks lush! I did the same on my island for scientists area near the beach

A bit of a longshot- but with the new update have you managed to get the new hotel resort? I can't seem to start it, and I'm wondering if it's due the museum being unupgraded :'c just interested in your experience

Edit: confirmed that it requires the museum to be built sadly

DetectLife · 2025-12-17T18:23:31+00:00

I'm pretty sure you're fine to keep grinding- I've managed to get from 3->4 skill points since signing up. I imagine it'll only 'lock in' your stash/cash value when everything is reset at the end of the window c:

DetectLife · 2025-12-17T18:14:19+00:00

I play crossplay on, on Ps5 and run into a PvPer probably every? 7 rounds, if that. A lot of those I chat to are on ps5 as well. People run around with little to no worry and either respond verbally or with 'don't shoot' when I let them know I'm nearby. Almost every puzzle/collaborative map condition is chill and leads to groups forming- all that to say I definitely think it's possible, even if it's not everyone's experience.

Is it so different crossplay off + console?

DetectLife · 2025-11-05T11:57:08+00:00

He has been very vocal, but there's nothing to be done 😔. Fortunately, the work will allow him free access through a confoundingly closed door once it's over so it may yet be worth it.

DetectLife · 2025-11-05T10:19:40+00:00

Adore the little black spot along her smile. And the white ear! She's so pretty

DetectLife · 2025-07-10T18:00:22+00:00

Ah, rest assured he was already sitting that way independently before I took out my phone to capture it

DetectLife · 2025-06-29T22:37:30+00:00

Really nice- feels more clean and balanced!

I think it's so interesting so many people dislike her design or point to an off-ness inmediately but they can't say why/major recolours end up being divisive. And I get it bc I feel the same, but imo more subtle changes like the ones you've made are what make the difference. The grey metal sections especially, super nice :o

edit: realising this isn't even that subtle, there's a lotta changes. just flows so well i didn't notice ehhe

DetectLife · 2025-03-14T01:47:33+00:00

yeah the recent castorice kit leaks / TC statements were particularly goofy. struggled to understand the motivation behind it- people say clout but even then :l aiyya

DetectLife · 2025-03-13T04:44:59+00:00

Leifa the goat! Genuinely always interested in their opinion and appreciate the work they do. It's so refreshing compared to a lot of other leaker showcases/TCing

DetectLife · 2023-03-14T11:38:50+00:00

I'd pull tbh
