This time it's the Rackmaster 850 Bowling Ball Rack by Hurling Matters from TS2 Night Life.
I have created two versions of this conversion. Both versions are identical except that the second version also includes a new pattern based on the original TS2 textures.
It can be found under either Decor> Misc. or Study>Indoor Activities for a price of 2000 simoleons.
It features two presets and three channels.
It has the original TS2 catalogue description as well as all translations originally provided.
As an added bonus, I have also added five (5) decorative slots so that you may place objects on top.

The new pattern included with the second version of the rack has 3 channels and can be found under the Abstract catagory. By default it features a white background with black and grey "boomerangs" as seen on the second preset.

Both versions CAN be used together in the game at once although that really seems a bit pointless as the inclusion of the pattern is the only difference.
Built with game version 1.50.
Polygon Counts:
High = 1468
Medium = 759

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.

Install Instructions
1. Click the file listed on the Files tab to download the file to your computer.
2. Extract the zip, rar, or 7z file. Now you will have either a .package or a .sims3pack file.
For Package files:
1. Cut and paste the file into your Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\Mods\Packages folder. If you do not already have this folder, you should read the full guide to Package files first: Sims 3:Installing Package Fileswiki, so you can make sure your game is fully patched and you have the correct Resource.cfg file.
2. Run the game, and find your content where the creator said it would be (build mode, buy mode, Create-a-Sim, etc.).
For Sims3Pack files:
1. Cut and paste it into your Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\Downloads folder. If you do not have this folder yet, it is recommended that you open the game and then close it again so that this folder will be automatically created. Then you can place the .sims3pack into your Downloads folder.
2. Load the game's Launcher, and click on the Downloads tab. Find the item in the list and tick the box beside it. Then press the Install button below the list.
3. Wait for the installer to load, and it will install the content to the game. You will get a message letting you know when it's done.
4. Run the game, and find your content where the creator said it would be (build mode, buy mode, Create-a-Sim, etc.).
Extracting from RAR, ZIP, or 7z: You will need a special program for this. For Windows, we recommend 7-Zip and for Mac OSX, we recommend Keka. Both are free and safe to use.
