CAST yourself a chimney! -For Pets-
This is my first add on to the CAST yourself a chimney! -set I made earlier. Now you can make the new lovely fireplaces from Pets use my CASTable chimneys
Here is a picture of the Pets fireplaces using the CASTable chimneys:
I can't give you the names of the fireplaces, as I play in finnish. They are all found in the build mode, next to the EA original fireplaces. Prices are the same as originals.
Info you should read:
- You will need to have Pets EP installed to use these
- These are not default replacements
- For some unknown reason the smallest fireplace reverts its chimney back to EA's if you move it after placing. To solve this sell the reverted version, and buy new one and place it to the location you want it to go.
What do I download?
If you don't have my original pack , and do not wish to get it, you need to download both rars in the download tab.
If you do have my originals, then you only need to download the armiel_CAST yourself a chimney_Pets.rar. There is no need for you to download the chimney pieces twice.
How to use?
I have made a video about how to use these.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ztiHoOqA57E
If for some reason you can't watch the video, here is a basic written how to:
- place the files from the rar(s) to your mods/packages folder.
- run the game
- make a house
- place a fireplace
- cast it (only the part behind fireplace has ability to be clicked for cast, you need to drag the pattern in cas-tool to the rest of the pieces.)
How to use the optional fake chimney cap bottom?
(also shown on video)
- open cheat panel by ctrl+shift+ C and type in: moveobjects on
- you need to have floor of grid on the floor you want to place the piece.
- place a fake cap bottom (found in misc. deco)(the piece can be moved up and down by holding mouse and dragging, if you have patch 1.17 or higher)

Thank you once again Inge Jones, for helping me. My memory did need a little refreshing
Also thank you for BenC0722 (known as Ben at #create) for testing.
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.
