Have you ever tried recoloring the jewelry rack in the game and realized all those cool holiday recolors can’t be used at a regular store? And if you make a recolor, while it will stay there in buy mode, it suddenly goes away back to the black marble one as soon as you go live in game?
Well, no more!
With this cep extra, while the holiday recolors still show up in the game appropriately while on vacation, you may also use those recolors in a regular store. Not only that, you may add a number of other nifty recolors to use.
As a bonus, I also added a cheap and an expensive jewelry rack, repositoried to the original (well the NEW original due to the new cep extra 😉 ) that has a nice labeled bcon that allows you to adjust what prices you charge on those two extra racks. They follow the same vacation rules as the original as well. The cheap one can be found in the buy mode catalog for 15 dollars and the jewelry price is 20 simoleans for each piece of jewelry. The expensive one can be found in the same location for 150 simoleans and each piece of jewelry costs 149 simoleans. They can be found in a community lot in the shopping subsort in general/miscellaneous. They can be found in a residential lot in general/miscellaneous. That way, if your sim wants to sell jewelry in a home business they can.
I am also including an optional jewelry mod that allows the original jewelry rack to be sold at a residential lot as well. Just stick it in with the program files cep extra if you wish to use it, as otherwise the jewelry rack will have a nice custom star on it in the residential location.
I am including 22 recolors of the jewelry rack for you to start with.
Now on to the downloads
When you download it, you will find two files in the folder inside the zip file. Put the one named gdaCepExtraDocumentFilesJewelryRack in your Documents/EA games/Sims 2 zCEP-EXTRA folder. Put the one named zzgdaCepExtraProgramFilesJewelryRack in your program files in The Sims 2\TSData\Res\Catalog\zCEP-EXTRA folder. Exact location of the base game in program files will depend on which version of the game you have.

These go in the usual downloads folder.

Remember, if you don’t want the asterisk/star to show up on the jewelry rack in the residential location (general/miscellaneous section for 1,500 simoleans so home businesses can use it to sell jewelry) stick this mod in with the program files portion of the cep extra in the zCEP extra folder in the base game section. It will work in the downloads folder, but I wouldn’t recommend it.
Just a few additional items. The cheap and expensive racks are direct clones of the jewelry rack from Bon Voyage. You will HAVE to have Bon Voyage installed to use these items. The poly count is 1000 for the first state that has jewelry on it, and 888 for the second/empty stage of the rack. It is a small texture of 256 by 256 naturally. I also want to thank Gummi for telling me it was a bcon that set the price, and my friends Jo and Ellu for testing. Also all my Crafters friends who helped with giving me advice on recolors.
