Nintendo has officially removed the hack that allowed players to grow gorgeous star fragment trees on their island from 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Animal Crossing: New Horizons.
Per an update for the game released earlier this week (referred to as "Version 1.4.1"), the infamous hack that allowed 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Animal Crossing: New Horizons players to fill their island with trees that produced star fragments has been completely removed. According to the update's official description from Nintendo, the update has "Fixed an issue where trees could mature and contain things other than the normal fruit, etc." While the des🥂cription didn't specify the star fragment trees directly, i💮t's clear that a hack to produce them is no longer an option in the game.
Any pre-existing star fragment trees have since been returned to regular money trees, which is ꦺthe kind of trees the hack ꧅initially modified. While the free bells were a nice gesture, some players were upset by the recent update.
The news comes just a week after the second wave of New Horizons' big summer update was implemented that added the highly anticipated Dream Suite feature to the game. While players were initially excited to visit islands using the new feature, Nintendo also implemented a way for players to report dream islands that had broken the game's code of conduct. Unfortunately, many players who had engaged in hacking, predominantly to modify their island's aesthetics and decorations (e.g. adding star fragment trees), began announcing on social media that 168澳⛦洲幸运5开奖网:Nintendo had deleted their dream islands.
According to , the reporting got so out of hand that some players were visiting islands just to hunt down any signs of hacking or cheating. Panicked players began deleting any modified features on their island, or simply stopped a🔴dvertising it, to avoid being a target of these aggressive players.
It appears that this latest update is Nintend🐠o's direct solution to the probleꦑm.
Notably, the star fragment trees have publicly been in the Animal Crossing: New Horizons online spotlight since May. After o𓂃ver three months of silence from Nintendo, this is theꩲ first time they've acted in regards to the hacking.
Animal Crossing: New Horizons is available👍 now, exclusively for the Nintendo Switc🐓h.
