Angry Upset with the Tailoring Minigames!

I hate the changes to the tailoring games. Hate hate hate. I miss the cute ants that bought me pieces, they were the cutest thing ever and they're gone! The spider sewing is not a intuitive as it used to be.

AND DON'T GET ME STARTED ON THE DARN CATIPILLAR! I always jump when it tells me to jump and I still hit the darn thing its telling me to jump over. (Is that a bead or something? What the heck?) I don't get the compass bit, I'm pointed at the green and still go way off course, the compass basically does nothing. I hate it.

I'm frustrated that I have to do the game over and over again. I really hate tailoring now, I used to have fun making things. This is not fun.

I am slightly annoyed that they made the games harder, too ~ but there are some nice new changes to it.
I agree with Kass ~ maybe you can e-mail the NC.

Gosh, really? I find Tailoring much easier now, and I'm not trying to boast. I used to jump when it told me to, but I noticed - as you did - that it doesn't work. You need to wait until you are about to ram into the nut before clicking to jump. And I never pay any attention to the compass at all. When I do, I mess up. I watch the caterpiliar and gently turn when I need to.

I prefer tailoring now. I think it is so much better than it was.
And the caterpillar is so much easier to navigate now.

I'm happy with the changes, too. The caterpillar and spider are a lot easier for me since they changed it. The only thing is that I never do practicing anymore, because I don't need it to unlock news clothes, so I forget about it and I still have to get my royal badges of course

You don't need to keep the compass in the green. Just put your cursor in front of the caterpillar and turn it to whatever side you need it to go. Making semi-tight turns on those corners helps too

The cake leading was a great headache for me.
Now here's a tip for the caterpillar: Just continue pressing the mouse even before the time and starts and twist your way along the line, jump when you reach the bar, but then immediately click back.

Tailoring isn't for me

Yes I agree; I didn't like tailoring much before the changes, except the cute caterpillar following the cake and the ants that brought pieces, but now that those 2 enjoyable parts are gone, I just don't tailor at all anymore. It's easy to avoid, but sometimes I do want to make my own clothes.



But it sounds like the changes worked out well for everyone else, so I'm glad.

I think I may have reacted too soon to the caterpillar and spider. I've been doing other tailoring patterns and getting good scores on them, it may have just been the configuration of the pattern I was trying was a bit difficult.

I also tried that trick of waiting until the bead was right at my nose before jumping and it worked, so thank you to everyone who gave that bit of advise!

I still miss the pattern piece ants though.

I find it much more easier now then it was before. I didn't like it how before they didn't have a outline around where the pieces were supposed to go.

The caterpillar cutting was always hard for me, and it didn't improve with the hurdles -_-
But everything else is okay ~ the new activities like knitting & beading is fun, and spider stitching & the usual activities are easier or just the same. So I guess the changes aren't bad at all ^^

Caterpillar Cutting used to be a nightmare for me and at first the new changes seemed even worse, but recently something clicked and I realized the new way of doing it is super easy. You're right, the compass is useless, but the caterpillar is much easier to control now. And with the jumping, it helps do it as soon as you see the item rather than when it says to because there's a bit of a lag.

I don't mind the new changes much, but I still like the old way better. And I REALLY REALLY wish they didn't change it so you can't make the old tailoring patterns now. They were so much more fairyish!!

tailoring is my least favourite thing to do in the hollow, but its not because its difficult. I find most of it to be pretty easy, though it did take a while to get the hang of the new caterpillar cutting. The only think i can't do is the shaving. no matter how well i think im doing, i always get a really low score!
