I only recently realised how there seem to be no steriotypical desk lamps in the game. At least not with just the base game. Due to this I have created the "ModulARM Desk Lamp".

It comes in the above four default designs and features one (1) CASTable channel which is basically the entire lamp minus the bulb.
It costs 60 simoleans, is found under the Function> Lighting> Table Lamps section and has it's own catalogue description which can be seen in the attached screenshot.
It is cloned from a base game lamp at version 1.10.6 and uses a modified mesh of the Two Arm Floor Lamp available at the Store. The store lamp is NOT a requirement for this to work and it should function with all other versions of the game.
The Multiplier and Specular textures have been hand created from scratch.
The lamp also features correct sun shadows.

Please don't redistribute elsewhere.

High: 936

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.
