Using Maxis sidings? Found that the chimney's red bricks don't really go with it? Then here's the solution for you! I've created chimney recolors matching Maxis' Shiver Me Timbers Wood Sidings.


Army - Bionic Blue - Violet Mist - Harvest Gold - Russet - Grey Slate - Ice Blue - Clay

They're packaged into one .zip, but named after the corresponding siding, so it's easy to delete the ones you don't want.

How to use:
First of all, you need the CEP or the chimneys won't be recolourable at all.
Put your fireplace where you want it. If you move it after you recolored it, the chimney will revert to the red bricks. Then, in Buy or Build Mode, select the Design Tool. Click on the chimney, and the recolors will appear. There are quite a few parts to the chimney and they all need to be recolored separately.
If you experience any problems or oddities, please let me know.

Other Sets:
I got a few requests and ended up creating chimney recolors matching all of Maxis outdoor wallpapers (the ones I consider outdoor, that is). There are quite a few recolors, but they're named after their corresponding wallpaper, and you can easily delete the ones you don't want and keep only your favourites. These are the existing sets. If you have any other requests, let me know and I’ll have a look at it.
