How does the villager house glitch work?

[akimaki]

hey yall!! was wondering if anyone knew the specifics of the villager house glitch (new villager but they still have old villagers house exterior)

i love some villagers in this game and want them on my island, but their house exterior doesnt fit the theme of my island (kinda picky but its the aesthetics that matter ok!!)
was thinking that if i can just glitch their house to be one more of my liking, then i could have any villager i want inside. yknow until they fix it.

but anyways lemme know if you think my plan will work! im waiting for my amiibos to come in so i cant quite test it yet.

Are you only experiencing it when you move in a campsite/amiibo villager?

i havent experienced it myself yet, but i wanted to know the specifics so i could glitch a villager on purpose i guess. explained better in op

If you use the campsite (amiibo or not) you can do it, but keep in mind that with the I've moved out glitch, when it was fixed, some villagers vanished (probably affected by the glitch but didn't show it yet). If you are bringing them through amiibo I would say go for it, since if they get deleted you can always bring them back, as far as I know it's only cosmetic. I have that problem rn, but I'm planning on kicking that villager quickly to a friend because I'm scared of losing it (it's Judy, and she's a gift for her so I don't want Nintendo to ruin it)

Sorry, forgot to tell you how it happens. You have to either skip the sold plot day or travel backwards in time for the glitch to occur
