I've hacked AC:WW and currently working on a maze type town.
It'll be a race/maze to see who can get to the bottom first. ^^
There will obviously be a prize, and the maze will be intricate. There will be a plethora of pitfalls, trees, two alternate routes, and golden axes provided. I'm trying to see if I can expand the size of the town to make the maze larger, but, as of late, it is to no avail. I'm also trying to delete the neighbor's houses, but that's not to too much avail either.

I don't have AC:WW, so I wouldn't know how this works, but it sounds cool. What are you using to hack the game? A Gameshark or something?

You know, I've always wanted to do something like this with a Ruby/Sapphire Secret Base, but the 16-object limit always frustrated me… *grumble*

She'll be using a AR with that map thingy. I lurk as a guest on the Nsider forums.

I'm a dude. ._.;
And sorry about the late reply, Ace, I forgot about this topic. x.x;
I'm using a modified Action Replay Duo to upload the gamesaves to my computer, and I edit them there with a tool called "map edit", or something.

Ahem! MapEdit can be found at AiboHack, at http://aibohack.com/nds/ac_mapedit.htm.
OLDER WARNINGS
(The initial flurry of these problems has died down. The risks are still there. Be careful who you add to your friends list.)
It is possible for evil visitors to screw up your town.

Nintendo recently released a bogus 'red tulip' which can screw up your game. Get rid of it by giving/selling it to Nook. Nintendo will fix it for you, if you send in your game cartridge and your NDS console. However it is easier to fix it yourself.
This map editor can be used to fix these problems. This map editor does not let you harm others. This map editor is primarily for customizing your own town.

General Trading Advice:
As always be careful of the visitors you allow into your town. If a complete stranger is offering a giveaway of valuable items, don't let them into your town. Instead go visit their town, and pickup items you see on the ground to take back to your town. Don't take unnamed items from the Lost+Found or Recycler. When you get back to your town, remove the stranger's friend code from your Friends List (so they can't sneak into your town later). That's the safe way to get stuff from strangers.
If you want to be extra safe, get an Action Replay device yourself, backup your town and save it. That way you can always restore a backup of your town to fix any problems.
