📋 About This Mod
Seasonal Japanese Buildings is one of my favorite mods, but sadly, it was never updated to include the Desert Obelisk. So here is my version. It is meant to fit right in with sonreirblah's Earth & Water Obelisks.
Simple to install:
Just drop the images into the Assets folder for Seasonal Japanese Buildings .
You also need to add the code into the content.json file for the mod to include the overwrite instructions for the Desert Obelisk.
Put the code below in with the ones for the Earth & Water ones and you're all set.
"Action": "Load",
"Target": "Buildings/Desert Obelisk",
"FromFile": "assets/Desert Obelisk_{{season}}.png",
},
(Obviously requires the original mod above)
This is my first public mod, so please be kind.
All credit due to sonreirblah for their awesome mod. :)
