Do you put down paths?

[Sheepish]

I've placed a few temporary placeholder ones, but I've held off putting any more down until I'm happy with the positions of the houses of all my villagers.

I decided to finish my paths. I am using a waterway path that Bidoof posted. I think I will need to make a pattern slave character though, because this path has a lot of pieces.

I will eventually, but I'm too lazy to chop down trees and lay everything out the way I want to right now. I'm focusing on unlocking/upgrading all the shops/buildings and my house before I do any serious landscaping

I've managed to lay down paths in 3/4's of my town so far. Will do the rest at some point, haha.

I've thrown down some path designs at the moment, but I'm planning to make a new character who will be dedicated to paths as I want to have more variety in my path designs. The path I'm using is a grey paved pattern that I came up with myself - I'll post it in here at some point!

I like the paths because they add a bit more structure... for me the town feels more like a town if there are paths guiding people around!

I made paths from my train station to my house, the town hall, plaza and Re-Tail. Since the Town Hall and Plaza are right next to each other and my house and Re-Tail are just across the map a little, there isn't much.

I have made a little path on the beach and around the tree I planted when I was appointed to be mayor, still deciding on whether or not to keep it cause I think it looks funny... Might try a few different paths to find the one I really like.

I prefer the 'natural' look. I haven't seen a path design yet that made me want to do it but things could change. I've only had the game a few weeks now.

I'd never done paths before New Leaf, but now that I've tried it I personally think paths make it feel so much more like your own town, and like a town in general actually. It does take some work to put them down, but I've done it in parts so it didn't completely burn me out and it was definitely worth it!

I thought colourful paths would work but whenever I lay them down I'm like BLECH. I also don't have a second character yet but I want a path easy to maintain. I found a grayscale path that matches with the cobblestone bridges. Images provided!

(you can sort of see it)

It's July but it's raining non-stop in my village... T_T

I'm using the same path, but the pink version! I love how it only takes up one space in your pattern slots (two if you count the steps) and how easy it is to swap out for a different one-slot path when you get tired of it. Just need to overwrite it with a different QR code.

 

[Chrissy.]

Yeah! It's easy and effective. ^^ I find the steps help to break up the monotony a bit.

I am looking for a Perfect Orange and will pay 100,000.00 bells for one please someone help me, message me

 

[Mokuren]

Oh my god. Stop posting this everywhere! Just wait a little bit... Besides I write you a private message how about check it? <.<

 

[Joey]

I have this path.

 

[chriss]

Im using a pretty basic brick path pattern I found on bidoofcrossing. It has sides and corners though, takes up 9/10 of my patterns. Oh and I wasnt smart enough to make a new character for patterns, so I have to deal with using just one pattern for now~

 

[Craftyott]

I had to lay down paths just so I would stop getting lost in my town.....I have a terrible sense of direction in real life and it apparently crosses over to my AC town.

I started out with a pattern that uses lots of tiles to complete (9 of 10 of my pattern slots), but I think I will change to a pattern that uses only 1 or 2. (Thanks for all of the pattern postings! Don't know how I missed that mossy cobblestone one!). I do have a 2nd character for pattern storage, but I want a different pattern design around a 'castle' I am hoping to build.

 

[Yuna]

I found a basic grey brick path with sort of uneven shapes and grass and tiny flowers growing in the corners/gaps to break things up a bit - I'll have to see if I can dig up the QRs again but I believe I saw it on bidoofcrossing too. I put it down initially as a placeholder but it's really grown on me for balancing decoration with not being too obtrusive!
I've never been one to put down paths before but I have them to all significant areas of my town now (though not to individual villager houses) and I love it. I got a bit carried away and bordered all of it with flowers and I just love how it breaks up the town a little and provides a good placement guide for street lamps. Definitely making a habit of laying paths now!

 

[ripley4O77]

In general I never like patterns, a lot of my friends are using them and it always looks too busy and not very natury. On top of that I cannot afford to loose those design spaces just for something like that.

Silly question: when you place a path, can you remove it- is there an 'undo' button?
