62 Thanks Say Thanks

This is a Maxis Recolour which means that it is a recolour of an item that already exists in your game. Please check the Expansion pack requirements to see which game pack it recolours.

This custom content if it is not clothing, may require a seperate download to work properly. This is available at Colour Enable Package (CEP) by Numenor.

5 base game hobby objects in MALM colours, The Piano comes in 2 designs, plain and Maxis original. I have packed everything in separate zip files as well as a zip file with all recolours in it, to make picking and choosing easier.
You will need "CEP" - Color Enable Package by Numenor installed for the colour to show on the top of the Grand Parlour & King for a Day Outdoor Chess Tables.

These are base game compatible, no EP's or SP's required!
