More Slots!: Base Game Bookshelves
Reminder: This is not a mod; they are new objects. They are not default replacements, which leaves the originals still available. (They cannot be defaults because their poly counts have been altered, just if you were wondering.)
You may be wondering, but the slots on every bookshelf allow full rotation of objects! You can place any item that is small, medium, or large.
Record Scratch waaaittt.. what about the other two base game shelves? A: You can find those here and here
Fun note: These are still usable bookshelves. You can add any books you like and the form of the bookshelf will not be altered! Don't worry about the geostates, they have been adjusted to where no matter how many books you add, your objects and bookshelf will not be altered.
Helpful Hint: If you find it hard to place the objects on the bookshelves; zoom in to the spot that you want to object and try placing it again. It seems to get a little less frustrating when you do that
Update *6/27/12*: Poly counts were incorrect; they have been updated to the correct amount.

---|---|---|---|---|
Colonial Bookshelf | $980 | 1 | 22 | 532~498 |

Shelf Clutter Pack (20 Items!) by cmomoney. I recommend this if you want to spice up the shelves even more!
Polygon Counts:
*Polys are listed in table.*
Additional Credits:
TSR Workshop and your fancy geostate editor!, S3PE, Adobe Photoshop CS5, Milkshape 1.8.5
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.
