**Outdated**: Recolours of the "Panic Rouser Fire Alarm"
*Edit (2012-03-01): All files are still working fine in game - tested with game version 11.0.84.014017.
*Edit (2010-04-25): All files were checked with the newest update version (3.2.6.005001) - they still work fine in game and can be used both with the base game and also with the latest expansion pack "Luxury Accessoires", however, no expansion pack is required for these files.
*Edit (2009-10-18): I fixed the titel name of the red package which didn't show the colour name in game. If you'd like to replace the old file, please download "PanicRouserFireAlarm_fixed_RED.rar" seperately (you don't need to re-download the whole rar package). My apologies for the inconvenience - please replace the old file with this new one. Also, I added a new copper recolour which looks more natural, I think. This is a new colour and NOT included in the big rar file with all other colours - please download the "PanicRouserFireAlarm_New_Copper.rar" file seperately.
With a fire alarm your Sims immediately know if their home is on fire, however, you no longer need to bother them with Maxis' greyish original of the "Panic Rouser Fire Alarm"....
The recolours will fit perfectly to the interiour of your Sims' houses and they all have a shiny metallic look. My little counterpart Sim tested all the recolours of the fire alarm extensively in game (see last picture)...
The recolours don't replace the original and they all show up with their own thumbnail pictures.
You'll find the recolours next to the original "Panic Rouser Fire Alarm" in game in the buy category > electronics > misc. electronics and the price for the fire alarm is 100 $imoleons (same for original and all recolours).
Enjoy the new colours![/CENTER]

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.
