Thank you! You're my hero for the day! (well, one of my heroes at least LOL). As a long-time Sims1 user, this was driving me buggy.

I was shocked to see OFB didn't allow move objects on to work properly. I for one use a mailbox cover with a shelf underneath (I think I got it from here somewhere), and I was going mad about having to move the entire mailbox into the lot, just to use that item properly.
I hope they fix the move objects not working for the whole lot with the next patch, no offence to you, this was much needed as maxis didn't even realise this was missing, until asked if it was included in the patch. ^rolls eyes.
So thank you for this!

I can't thank you enough for this. I was shocked to see Maxis "solution" to people accidentally deleting their mailbox, trashcan, or portals was to completely remove access…

Glad you found a fix

Lol! Its by me! I forgot to remove it and took a picture with that cover on. That cover is published at TSR and should be currently in a free rotation. I've updated the cover to work on locked tiles even before I published this hack.

I have to say that you are one awesome creator!!!! I absolutely LOVE you and ALL your creations!!!! For people in contests (myself included) this is a dream come true for the pictures we take for them. When OFB came out and we couldnt put stuff past the sidewalk I was horrified, but now, YOU have made this possible again and I thankyou soooooooooo much for this, I cant even begin to tell you how much this means to me and all the people in contests!!!!!!! You are so awesome!!

Thank you so much for this hack, it was driving me nuts that I could not place my driveway where I wanted it to go and now I can.

Thank you again.

I think they will still be there even if you don't install this fix. You just wont be able to move them within that locked area.

As I said in another thread, mailbox covers by me were also updated and don't require hack at all .

It still doesn't seem to work with FFS I agree w/I think numeror sp this is more like an expansion pack than an add on maybe they will fix it or one of you cleaver folks will... I will just keep moving my stuff else where I guess till some bright lad or lass fix is it.. ))

Good work...

Care, did you test it by buying a new object or by moving existing one? You need to buy an object.
