Hi

Anyone know of any doors with a letterbox slot in them? so say my character can try to look though it and see whats beyond :)

Thanks in advance

    daz3d.com/european-suburb has a semi-detached house with letterboxes on both doors. Neither separate door objects nor rigged letterboxes tho so probably not helpful unless you can fix those things yourself.

    Same deal with daz3d.com/northern-terrace-street.

  • Entrance door has a letterbox too. Dunno if it's rigged for peeping through. https://www.daz3d.com/shinjuku-living

    I don't have the Shinjuku living product so cannot test the "peekability" of that door. However, as a compromise, I have found daz3d.com/suburban-house and whilst the letterbox is also unrigged the door is mostly window and so plenty of peekability surrounding the letterbox.

    I can verify that the door in Shinjuku Living opens and closes, but there isn't an actual letter slot one could look through, more of a box attached to the door with a lid that opens.

  • I'd wager someone could probably fake up a letter-box opening in a door... by making an opacity-map for the door, then creating a hinge-open part and the frame of the letter-box out of prims.  To make the part that hinges up, simply attach that particular, adjusted cube-prim onto another (hidden?) prim (or a null?) at the spot you want the hinge to actually be, then simply open the mail door by rotating the hinge-prim/null.  I've actually used the attached-to-a-prim technique to make a static-prop door that wasn't devised to swing open at the appropriate edge... actually swing at the appropriate edge.
