before i get messages about it not working 1) make sure you have Content Patcher, and Prismatic Tools 2) make sure you DONT ALREADY HAVE the golden scythe* 3) if you download the Optional File, be aware that it is an override for a file inside the Prismatic Tools Mod, place it in to Prismatic Tools/assets and allow it to replace the one in there to recolor the Milk Pail, Shears & Copper Pan *if you do you can still use this BUT you NEED CJB Item Spawner to swap them for the name change to take effect
So it still changes the look of the scythe if you have it before you get the mod? it only keeps the name golden scythe the same? cause i can live with that tbh
Right... So the Content Patcher content file needs to be extensively reworked for this to work as intended, much less utilize the "other tools" file at all (since it isn't doing so, nor does that file come with its own updated content file). In addition, if used as it is at, any other weapons mods that might be utilized would be overwritten or not load at all because of this mod.
Unfortunately, I don't have the patience at the moment to fix it. But I thought I'd post this here so that others can understand why it isn't working as intended. Very quickly, and superficially, the patches necessary are two. One referencing the scythe in the weapons.png with a "From/To Area" patch, and another for the other tools that are in the tools.png with the same kind of patch. I personally use GIMP to obtain the coordinates (main reason why I lack the patience for making the patch myself, atm). If just a full image overwrite is used, it is not different to simply replacing the entire image, and will change everything in that file. So all weapons and all tools respectively. Meaning that any other patches that attempt to replace only specific weapons/tools will likely not work.
Hey-o! Same problem as SupremeClassic just below; the scythe was still called "Golden Scythe" when I picked it up, and the CJB item Spawner spawns a wooden sword with the name Prismatic Scythe instead of the actual scythe.
It seems it can't get the rename to work I have the latest version off Content Patcher and Prismatic Tools installed All the mods where installed before obtaining the scythe. In CJB Item spawner it shows up as a brown sword! What am i doing wrong here ? I uploaded some screen shots off the game as a example to show you! https://imgur.com/gallery/MtbOsVR

Good luck, and have fun.
Any help would be greatly appreciated :)
