Testers wanted: Music box
screeny 1.jpg - width=600 height=450
screeny2.jpg - width=600 height=450
screeny3.jpg - width=600 height=450
screeny4.jpg - width=600 height=450
could you help me test this?
It's an older, mechanical version of the stereo: a musical jewelry box!
Sorry, no little dancing ballerina :argh:
Big thanks to Numenor and JWoods, for their tutorials and general niceness.
The info:
Poly count: 740 triangles, 470 vertices (reasonable

Price: 250 simoleons
Fun score: 8
Room score: 1
Catalog descriptions in Dutch, (bad) French and (awful) German (I apologize in advance to the native speakers of the last two). All the others get English.
*update* Thanks to the wonderful besen, the german version is now no longer terrible, but correct!
(if you decide to redownload, the files should overwrite the old ones,
you should only do this if you're german and can't stand the original text

Recolorable in both SimPE and SimPE Wizard.
Should work in both versions of the game.
Comes with two recolors. The one with the butterfly is the base.
The legals:
Feel free to recolour, hack, fiddle with, as long as you give credit, post a link to the mesh in this thread and tell me all about it.
If you want to post the mesh somewhere, please ask first.
Please do not put this object in a downloadable lot.
Issues:
Mostly consistency: it's a remote controlled music box, which is weird

Then again, it plays hip hop and techno.

Also, the blue soundwaves look a bit wrong, but I don't dare touch the effect files.
update: Added a version for people who don't have the EP. I'll keep them seperate until I find out what, exactly, the different script does. But it has been a solution for some people. If you don't have the EP, please redownload and try again. The files overwrite the old ones.
Since I have the EP, there's no way for me to test that package. That's definitely a download-at-your-own-risk.

Anyway, enjoy and please let me know if something's wrong with it.
I have no way to test the Dutch/French/German entries, so please tell me if those work!
All comments, help and criticism are appreciated.
This is a new mesh, and means that it's a brand new self contained object that usually does not require a specific Pack (although this is possible depending on the type). It may have Recolours hosted on MTS - check below for more information.

About Me
since I'm officially sorta retired as a modder, feel free to derive from my work to make new stuff!
You may use textures and meshes (a link or credit is appreciated) for movies, redo's, new creations, whatever.
You can also upload my meshes on other sites with your new creation, if you want. Again, a link to MTS is always appreciated, and a general cool thing to do.
Have fun,
Lethey
