I’ve seen someone made this mod before but it causes some error in my game such as the game doesn’t detect that I have an active mailbox on lot while also the mod that I’ve seen before doesn’t support animation and the mailbox doesn’t display correctly.
So I decided to create my very first object mod! The functional depricated mailbox! This mod doesn’t override the original mailbox that EA had (In order to avoid error). This is a new mesh modified mod that allows the mailbox to have a lid and its duty as a mailbox! It appears on appliances, misc. But if you’re too lazy (like me) simply type depricated and the mailbox should show up without any problem.
In case you would like to find it, it’s under appliances, misc. The price is 0 (it’s mailbox after all)
It comes in 7 recolors but you can add more on your own if you like!
Some common issue:
The mail carrier would said that the mailbox is unreachable but that’s just a bug since your sim are still able to use the mailbox without any error. I also tried with the other mailbox in game and that dummy mail carrier still says they can’t reach it (Maybe they’re too lazy to do their job)
How to use:
put this mod into your document/Electronic Arts/The Sims 4/Mods folder or any folder inside the Mods folder
How it works:
Unfortunately there’s no telling whether there’s a mail coming or not by the looks of the mailbox but I made some
little details if there’s a mail, the mailbox contains a letter and a package inside, vice versa if your sim uses the mailbox when its empty then there won’t be any package inside it. Make sure to pay attention to the game notification if you want to know the mail is arrive.
Here are some shots of how it works in game:
and this is the small little detail for a better look
Let me know if there’s any issues. I’m open for DM in . (Since this is the first object mod that I made)
TOU:
Feel free to remesh or retext it since it wasn’t mine, I only make this in case someone wants to use the mailbox with full functionality.
The original mailbox belongs to EA I don’t own anything.
Feel free to include my mod if you make any build including this mod.
I would also appreciate it if you could give me the credit but if you don’t then that’s fine either.
DO NOT USE THIS MOD FOR ANY MONETARY GAIN!
(It’s violating EA’s TOS / TOU or whatnot, plus I don’t expect to gain any money out of this mod so why should you?)
