Cloned from the oh-so-useful set of non-recolorable racing flags (from Fast Lane) with the perma-checkered pattern, I changed the shapes of some of the flags and made all of them recolorable. The pennants and rope now have three customizable color channels.

No expansion packs are required. Playtested with a fully patched base game (patch 1.34) and with a game running patch 1.33.
Six Flags Over Your Bedroom comes in three pre-set flavors:
- Day and Night
- Surf and Turf
- Death and Taxes

Okay, so I can hear some of you saying, What do you mean, Six Flags? I see only FIVE flags, and I say, technicalities, technicalities!
About the shadow: the mesh uses a special wall shadow that I could not change without breaking the mesh. I am including an all-rectangle version of the pennants if the shadow annoys anyone. Or if you just, you know, have a thing for rectangles.
Six Rectangular Flags Over Your Spare Room comes in 4 flavors:
- Hell and High Water
- East and West
- Guns and Roses, and
- Moo
![](https://thumbs2.modthesims.info/img/6/1/0/2/7/8/8/MTS_thumb_kithri-1306150-6RectFlagsOverSpareRoom.jpg)
They are not either/or, but standalone meshes and fully compatible with one another.
You can find both Six Flags Over Your Bedroom Wall and Six Rectangular Flags Over Your Spare Room in the Deco--> Miscellaneous section of the Buy Catalog. It's also in deco --> paintings/wall objects.

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.
