My own statement about Action Replay and glitches, freezes, etc.


Ok, I’ve now something to tell you as I had some problems in the last days.
First of all, I’m not using Action Replay in my game! This is my most important statement here.
But… I’ve got many nice friends who use Action Replay to arrange their towns or to get special items, which I don’t criticize, because it’s everyone’s own decision how to play this game. For me it is more fun when I reach my goals by myself without any help of Cheat modules.
Ok now to my problem, I didn’t know that some people are even afraid of playing with people, whose friends uses AR(Action Replay)… 😦 I deeply apologize for those, who got in real trouble because of this, because I didn’t mentioned it before…
Please let me assure to those people, that my flowers (which I gave them as a present) were all breeded by myself, they were not cheated items I got from my friends!!
So please let me give my experience about playing with people who uses AR, this is my own opinion.
1. I’m playing for almost 2 years ACWW now and I had many friends whose town are changed or remodeled by AR. I had never glitches or freezes in my town, I promise that! And this is still my first town, I never restarted this game (you can see on my old diarys to prove that)
2. I also got in the past cheated items as a present from my friends. That were some Nintendo items, invisible chairs, letters, paint cans – well little items which I could drop in my house or town to decorate them. I checked it out and put it back in my cupboard – and nothing bad occurred since now!
3. Of course none of my friends offer me cheated items like second Nook shops, new town gates or such main things, which can badly ruin your own town! And of course I’ll never accept those things. I’m really angry about people who just uses AR to destroy other towns by leaving such items in your town, and I’ll never forgive that.
4. glitches and freezes I never had in my town, but I know of some people who had this sometimes. But that were because of following reasons:
– Glitches, such things like always bad turnips prices, Gracy don’t give ever a special shirts, no red turnips or blocked Mailbox occurs, when you time-travel a lot and your game time and your DS time are not synchronized anymore! The problem can be cured when you synchronize both clocks and you have to wait for 1 week when the game inside time code resets again
– Freezes occurs when you’ve got for example too many cheated festive cedars (those sparkling trees) in your town and a special day like New Year or the Bright nights are on this day. Then you are not able to start your game unless you change the date from your DS until after those special days.

But these are all thing which occurs on cheater’s games. I never heard of having a negative influence by just visiting one of those towns and never ever had such things in my own uncheated town! Please give me your opinion when you experienced something else by just visiting those people, I would like to know that…

Ok, that was my own opinion of that, I hope for those people who might be afraid of having a bad influence about visiting me are now a little relieved, (or was it the opposite effect- I don’t know…), again my deepest apology for all the trouble I caused!!!!

And I accept those decisions not to play with me just to be sure that nothing will happen on their own game, and I’m not mad or offensed by it.
Thanks for reading.

  1. I never had Problems with people who cheat in
    ACWW… Myself never using cheats, but it’s everyone’s own decision… The only prob. i got, was
    once with a time-traveller and his/her Kittycat-Thing. The cat-kid was in my town, but the mother
    wasn’t in the other town, ’cause there is another time. But it’s okay, just a week and the Cat leaves
    from alone. So.. i don’t give a sh** if someone’s want’s to cheat. Cheaters just suck in Multiplayer Games, ’cause it isn’t fair. But in ACWW there is
    no Battlematch or something. So, why not cheat. Not everyone has the time to play ACWW all day long to get everything. Ahm.. Yea. What i try to say – Let the ACWW Cheaters cheat and care for your own stuff!

  2. By the way – in Paranoia there is a Turnip price form
    539!!! Get it!! !

  3. Whoa… I didn’t realise you were so deep… btw:
    Did I make you post this? I asked whether you had AR because of all the amazing stuff which I have only seen in AR towns

  4. No no Spencer, you weren’t the reason for it 😉

    And thanks Smokie for the very nice turnip trade :mrgreen:

  5. If you play ACWW for over 2 years, you got enough amazing stuff. 🙂 In my old town i got everythink you can get. It’s possible! And with a good community ( like our’s ) you can make a lot of money with Turnip-Deals! 🙂 We all are Millionairs! XD Okay, me not.. Not longer… *sniff* Good old Exile! -.-‘

  6. What I am going to do, is get a 2nd game cartridge, and AR. Then, I’ll cheat in one town, and just not in the other. Then I get the satisfaction of owning items I might never own by playing fairly, but still get the satisfaction of playing fairly. :]
    Same thing with anicro. :]

  7. Oh my…People have decided not to play with you because of this? 😦
    I see it this way:
    You don’t cheat in your town, and just because some friends of yours do, doesn’t mean that it would affect me. Am I right? “Seeds” are passed directly, not inderectly. Correct?
    Thankfully, I’ve never been “seeded” or anythingof the sort.

    • Umm what does ‘seed’ mean in this game?

      • A seed is an item which you can’t get in normal game play. People use Action Replay to get those hacked items by replacing codes in the game and it’s possible that you can cheat non dangerous items like all things that you can find in your catalogue too or special items like the Nintendo items but you can also cheat another Nook, or a museum or a gate. And when you drop those things in another town you “seeded” that town. Then the town has got two Nooks or two museums. People like to destroy towns by doing these things and you can’t get rid of it when you don’t have Action Replay either.

        • It’s sad that people make making other people’s lives miserable a hobby 😦

  8. Hallo an alle, dazu möchte ich was sagen.
    Ich kenne Mayu seit fast 2 jahre und ich kann nur sagen : Hut ab. Sie gibt sich immer Mühe und hat ein sehr großes Herz, beschenkt jeden und alle Items hat sie mit Mühe erarbeitet . Mayu cheatet Nicht und Mayu ist ehrlich. Und wer das nicht glaubt , der hats nicht verdient in Mayus Acww freundcode zu sein .
    gruß Emöke

  9. Wow, vielen Dank Emöke!! XD 😳 *freu*

  10. I know you have to go in and out of a building for thoes seeds to appear. I wified and went to a friends town. He came out of his gate to find he was seeded. I felt so sorry for him!

  11. Thanks for your hint Aperson. Yes I know that, too and luckily I was never seeded. That’s just unfair. Couldn’t your friend just reset again? It’s really a pity to see the own town destroyed by some jerks who find it amusing putting seeds in other towns… 😦

  12. What is seeded mean?

    I once had a town that had a funny spot on it like a flower thing gone wrong. is this the seed?

  13. No a seed is a code you can activate with Action Replay. You can take any items you know about ACWW to another town. For example a bad seed would be to bring a Nook shop item (the seed is then like a furniture) to another town and drop it in front of your gates, and you don’t have the chance to remove it anymore, so your town is seeded then. Everything is possible, you can put another gate, another townhall, another museum, stones, flowers on every place you like, just drop the item to the ground and it pops up… That just sucks! 😦 (and many people seem to like having fun in doing so to other towns… )

  14. Ah I understand.

    I dont like that either.

    Sometimes I play Tetris and they use action replay to get all the strip blocks, you know the ones that look like this:

    ****

    Then I lose because you cant stop it.

  15. Makes me tempted not to play Tetris online.

    I do Mario Karts as well. Sometimes people have cheats in that as well. Not good, very bad people !

    😦

  16. Oh you’re playing Tetris too Sarah? Me too :D. Yes I know what you’re talking about, I feel the same 😦 Cheating on multiplayer games on Wifi is just unfair!!

  17. INVISIBLE CHAIR!? I want to sit on one!

  18. I WILL NEVER USE AC. seeds r easy to get rid of. If you suspect that a seed has been dropped just turn the game of.

  19. If I had an AR, I would hack Alfonso, Apollo, Cesar, Champ, Cyrano, Margie, Rosie, and Whitney into my town. Does anyone know why..?

  20. Why Alfonso? Because you like them??

  21. Ahahaha, because you like the ACWW movie!! XD

    • Animal crossing….Movie? :O

      • i saw the ac movie on youtube, it was pretty good.

  22. Oh Ok !!!! Mayu !!!Your back on!!!

  23. I just saw what you said (quite a while ago) Michela. How do you know that a seed has been dropped?

  24. I was using AR-DS on Tetris and used the Block Modifier Code, the square piece (Yellow) on wifi, and I got owned by some Japanese.

    Lol, Action Replay cant help you win 😉

    And it crashes on the credits on 199 lines code 😉

  25. was sind sparkly trees???

  26. sparkling trees sind diese Lichterbäume, die es zum Lichterfest gibt (die Tannen, die dann diese schönen Glühlampen dran haben)

  27. Oh soz i never aswered. When i rearly do wifi i follow people around NEVER leaving them out of my sight. One time I secretly followed a hard-core action replayer in my friends town. He dropped an item but the stange thing was when it was on the ground you couldnt see it. I turned of the game for my friend and alerted her of him. This also happend once in my old town (Key West) so all in all I prevent 2 harmful seeds.

  28. Oh, OK. Thanks. 😉 I only knew a seed had been dropped in my town because he said:
    “I brick seeded you.” 😐

  29. i never have used action replay ever
    i don’t want to use it on my acww
    But this is a question
    IF ANYONE HAS A SPARE GOLDEN WATERING CAN PLEASE MAY I HAVE IT?

  30. well, hi admin adn people nice forum indeed. how’s life? hope it’s introduce branch 😉

  31. Hey if you get seeded pt me on http://www.animalcrossingcommunity.com/jacob9688 I can take the seed away! 🙂

  32. Hi I’m new at this game and I would like to have some friends to play with I never used an ar on my game. My friend code is 373846313773 my town name is nintown i know it’s not original but i couldn’t make one up my name Dylan.

    • Hello Dylan, thanks for visiting my blog! 😀
      I’ll add you with Miki and I’m going to open my gates in about 1 hour at 8PM my time 🙂

  33. Sorry I forgot to tell you that my house doesn’t have wifi. 😦 I’v been trying to get connected but no such luck. I hope to get connected soon and when I can I will try to tell you, Thanks.

  34. I love action replay hehehehehe 🙂

  35. hey, recently I found this in the internet, I wanted to join ya group!

  36. I’ve just got WiFi, and I don’t really know what to do. I have my friend code, but I’d rather visit other towns than open my gate. Could someone please help?
    Oh, and Mayu, hey. I’d love to visit your town, if it’s not too much of a bother. Your town is German, isn’t it? I am part German and can speak some, though my first language was English.

    • Yes, would be nice to meet you, can you give me pls your details? You can find mine under “My ACWW stats”. Btw are you an adult or a kid? If you’re an adult pls add Yuki, otherwise pls add Miki 😀 And you can just visit people when they also added you into their roster. And don’t worry that my ACWW game is a German game because when you visit my town you see all in English when you have your ACWW in English mode.

  37. before I had Emmy I had Emma and was very careful but did use a few cheats but never time traveld and my game froze twice so I made Emmy and resuntly deleated Emma

    • Ohh you game froze? And you think it was because of some cheated items? Luckily I never had that experience … 😉

  38. i get alot of freezes, not because i hack (which i dont) but because my ds is VERY fragile so like if i close ti for 2min, it shuts down (when i try to hide my ds when im not meant to be on it this si annoying 🙄 ) and if i like gently hit something with my ds (totally by accident, im not one of those freaks who bashes their gaming console bcoz something bad ahappens) it freezes. and that is y i save immediatly when i catch new fish, lol

    • Ohhh that sounds bad… perhaps you should save money for a new DS 😛

      • i have enough money to trade it in for a dsi, but mum says im not allowed a new ds and i should save my money!!! 😦

        • Hmmm then all you have to do is wait until your old DS is really broken xP

          • MY DS IS BROKEN! well, not EXACTLY, but

            -r button wont work
            -same for the up button
            -screen is floppy as
            -the screen, in fact6, has probably almost snapped off at least 4 times

            and this is new, it started happing about yeserday,
            if i gently bump the top screen, it like… well, you know how the ds is basically a bunch of pixels? well, one row of pixels just repeats itself along the whle screen like this

            8) :mrgreen: 🙄 :mrgreen: 8):mrgreen: 🙄 :mrgreen: 8) :mrgreen: 🙄 :mrgreen: 8):mrgreen: 🙄 :mrgreen: 8) :mrgreen: 🙄 :mrgreen: 8):mrgreen: 🙄 :mrgreen: 8) :mrgreen: 🙄 :mrgreen: 8):mrgreen: 🙄 :mrgreen: 8) :mrgreen: 🙄 :mrgreen: 8):mrgreen: 🙄 :mrgreen:

            • I think…. you need a new DS very SOON xP
              But my DS is also 3 years old now, and my down button is also weird, I have to press it very hard to walk downwards and my touch screen is also not that very good like the first year, I have to press more and more to make a sentence and still I’m doing a lot of mistakes xP
              And sorry to hear about your pixel problem, it’s annoying when you don’t have a perfect screen, I think when my DS would show that kind of error, I would buy a new one 😆

  39. can somebody add me

    • You have to give us your details, otherwise it’s difficult to add you 😉

  40. Hey Mayu! Well,I USED to use A.R.
    but not anymore…see the default
    weeds to bells thing came with a side affect…
    EVERY time we (Me and my siblings) looked
    in the recycling bin the were about 62k bells!
    So we’d just go back and forth again and again
    to the bank and the bin. xD Soon we were
    millionairres so we could by anything we wanted.
    xP But one day I turned on the A.R. to find
    every code was missing…oh well…

    • Hahaha that’s funny xD. Can’t you reset your AR? I’ve heard of that there’s a trick to reset it but you have to put every code on it after that too…

      • Well I’ve looked on a bunch of sites for codes but none are my version,
        apparently…and I forget why but I had to restart my old town…
        Luxuria is my new one. I think my version is 1.52…well that’s what
        it says on my AR. xP

      • Woah…I think just reseted it by accident! xD

  41. I love the fact that blogs allow users to share their knowledge with others. Thank you for sharing this.

  42. well, i have an action replay and I LOVE IT! well i don’t use seed to make another museum or “(whatever “seeded” means) double gates or grrr i don’t know. the main word is: WHATEVER!)))) oh well! P.S. go to chat ok well buh-bye lol

  43. please add me

    • I totally agree, that would be much nicer to play and without any fear to have new guests in your town.

  45. Please add me 🙂

    Thanks

  46. Oh im also from Canada in the Nova Scotia area

    • Thanks Hannah for your FC ^^. I’ll try to add you with Miki, but currently I get LOADS of FC requests, I think because many people have got summer holidays now? lol
      And what a unique town name, hehe, it’s nice

  47. Alright.
    oh and do you have any tips on how to catch a bee without getting stung?

    hehe and thanks 🙂

    • The bees are sooo difficult. I don’t have any special tip how to get them easily, I tried several techniques like running away make an u turn then equip quickly your net and catch them (but it never worked lol), or trying to press A at the moment when the bees are behind the head, in front of head, flying a little away etc. etc.
      It was just luck that I caught them xP!!!

  48. What is syncronize?
    And how do I do it?
    … If only I had kept the DS from my sister!
    I want good turnip prices!!

    • Well your DS and ACWW game is ‘synchronized’ when the DS time and ACWW game time is the same. By time travelling you automatically disturbs the synchronization. When you need good turnip prices I would change first the ACWW game time to the real time and check after that if the DS time is also set to real time. If both are the same your turnip prices get back to normal after 1 week, so be patient and don’t forget, having a good turnip price is really seldom lol.

      • Thankyou, that helps XP

  49. What your Friend Code? Just wanted to know!

    Thanks,

    Emily.

    • Oh sorry Emily, please look at “My ACWW stats”, there you can find Miki’s fc ^^

  50. BTW, what does Xp stand for!?!

    Just wanted to know!

    Emily.

    • Oh you mean that? xP or XP ?
      It’s a smiley like :] or ;D the face is turned 90° to the left.
      The x or X are closed eyes and the P is the mouth with tongue like 😛
