Glitched Game -invisible villager house

I suppose the moral of the story is...don't invite a camper to live in your town when that same villager is moving into your town, because I think that is the issue.

I don't think so maybe it's a bug better contact Nintendo if you want or if you feel that your game is gonna corrupt soon, better ask someone to hold items for you and reset your town I think it will help I guess...

I didn't say bug as in insect bugs what I mean was teachie related stuff...

Woah that's weird o.o


Try logging in with a different character.
 
Oh no, that sounds awful!

I wonder, what happens when you ask Isabelle to build a PWP really close to the invisible house? Maybe it would overwrite it... probably not though... :/
 
Try TT'ing forward on your ds clock.

I was going to suggest this -- try to build a PWP right where his house is and see what happens. If she tells you there's a neighbor's house there you'll know he's actually "there". I wonder if ignoring his ghost long enough will make it move out?

As long as my game doesn't corrupt, I am going to keep my town. It is what I consider the perfect layout. I love everything about it. I can't move anyone in though, and I have a hunch no one can move out, which just leaves my town in a villager limbo. I love all my current animals so I am ok with this :)

I might just have to buy a new game.

I will try PWPs right now and see what happens. I have a feeling she will something is in the way!

I did TT, day by day for a few days. Nothing. The invisible house stays with no Wolfgang. Wolfgang has sent me a letter saying he wasn't going to move in though!

I sent an e-mail to Nintendo support...I doubt much will come of it though.

Just tried to build a PWP on the invisible house. Isabelle says that there are plans to build a house for a resident here, so I cannot build a PWP there. Wolfgang will never move in though ;.;

That sounds so strange since it's also crashing other player's games.... I guess Nintendo didn't really think someone would have the opportunity to invite the same villager into your town twice from different areas before they actually moved in and they may not have programmed it to do so.
I'm interested in checking it out, but I'm super paranoid about corrupting my game so I won't take any chances of visiting your dream town.
I hope you get it all figured out and don't have to delete the whole town, that would be so sad!

Yes it is strange, and I do figure it was a situation the programmers never thought to deal with maybe? First, the chances of getting a camper, and the chances that camper will be the one you requested to move in. Who knows though, it could have nothing to do with that at all!

My town seems fine other than I can't invite any new villagers. My next option is to buy a new game. I love the layout of my town too much to give it up!
 
That's... Odd... I wouldn't be worried about not ever getting him, I'd be worried that space that you're losing and it crashing. Hope nothing happens. I know it's not good advice but if I were you I would time travel day by day for a while. Like log on then instantly log off. It might not work but it's worth a try.

I'm at your town right now. Also beautiful paths and layout :)
 
other than it crashing this sounds neat,so your other villagers wont move out
 
Report it on the official nintendo forums, or if you can find a contact on the official AC:NL this is the type of glitch they can probably patch and fix.

Only way to fix is probably TTing though if that doesnt work you might have to wait for a patch or even restart your game. How far in are you?
 
Pretty interesting issue. I imagine you will still be able to have villagers move out though seeing as I have a plot down today and Marshal still tried to move. ~ Seeing as towns can have 8-10 villagers I assume if someone tries to move the game will count it as going from 9 to 8 villagers. ~ or it'll try to move them out and realise there's a glitch villager too and crash. :S
How much have you TT'd since the day it glitched? Would a villager have normally moved out by now?

Could you make a new character and try to have their house build there? And is there any sign that an invisible house is there? Can you put items/flowers down where you can't stand? ~ I can't visit your town myself to try. ]:

I have e-mailed Nintendo support. If I don't get a reply soon I will bring it to the official support forums, but when I browsed the forums it didn't seem like an official Nintendo rep replied to any issues?

I would love it if they could fix it through a patch. I am pretty far into the game, my house is fully built. I am just 2 gracie checks away from the last shop. The layout is perfect for my tastes, and I just LOVE my town otherwise! As long as villagers don't move out, I can deal with it...but if they can I lose any, no one new could ever move in -.-
 
I'm gonna dream about your town now~

Ugh if any villagers move out it will be a disaster. seeing as no one can move in. I would be ultimately sad.

The game currently considers the invisible house as a spot for a future resident to move in, so I can't build anything there. I cannot place tiles/flowers on it or stand on it, it is just as the house is there just with no house image. like, the 'hitbox' is there.
