No Occluder Small & Large Appliances Default Replacement

This file is a must-have if you use any of my kitchens. Since I changed the cabinet shader to fix colouring and shading issues, appliances, both small and large, have occluders that darken cabinets and make them look horrible. This solves that for all Maxis objects released so far (or recolours with a linked light source). All this file includes is default replacement light resources for all appliances that had occluders and will fix the issue.

What You Need To Know:

• If you have my original version of this, it came in 2 files. I have trimmed that down to 1 so delete both old files and replace with the 1 new one.
