*Note* Consider this upload a "beta" version. It has not been properly UV mapped and has undergone limited testing.

Dese had a WCIF a plain white wall mounted mailbox thread, so I decided to give it a shot. Oddly enough, during 2 weeks of Don Lothario's life (played at 3x and autonomous...c'mon, he deserves it!) no mailman appeared to deliver bills, nor did the repo man come along and take anything. (On the flipside, he didn't get any love/hate letters, or recieve free coupon dinners)

To make the object function, go into build mode, use the moveobjects on cheat, remove the maxi's mailbox. In buy mode, sort by room, outdoors, decorative and for 75 simoleans you'll find my wall mounted mailbox. Slap in on a wall. At times I had trouble moving it, but I think I fixed that problem.

I am not aware of any other hacks which might have cause old Don to not get any bills, so I'm anxious to hear others tell me they get the same result with this object. It is NOT a global replacement, non mailbox oweners will still get their bills. It has a new mesh and unique guid. The paperboy will not use the paper holder thingie, he still puts it on the ground. Please, if you use this - drop me a PM let me know how it's working.

For now, you can recolor the entire thing one color, but in the meantime I'll be properly UV mapping and updating the post making more ornate versions.

Do not upload to paysites, claim it as your own, or send your unrecieved bills to me, blah blah blah...

Edit - black recolor added, UV mapped for those who wish to do recolors
The mesh is only in the white rar

Your welcome Dese...it was a good learning experience and a good chance to create a new object!

I've updated with a UV mapped recolor.

Leigh - I didn't even try any other hacks while I tested this one. In reality, I'm still suprised it even works the way it does. It's simply a cloned mailbox, and I'm shocked that no one had already done it.
