[left ivy]

someone has already created a mod for lower scaling if thats what you want

if not Ive got no clue lol

[glad sedge]

scaling is what im changing. but i want more antes
more opportunity for shops in like 20 antes
but after 12 things go crazy

and i dont think any build can hold up. destined to lose

[left ivy]

youd be surprised

[glad sedge]

when inet comes back im going to check a endless on youtube to get some understanding

[dusky reef]

wish i knew the game sooner

but it's also nice to see so many new people are hanging out in the mod chat

(including myself)

[left ivy]

Its always nice to see newer faces

Telling the tales of what the game use to be like, and my bugs

from WWI to WWII to WWIII

[strong swift]

shadow you do not do that

[left ivy]

(Im seeing a trend)

[left ivy]

Ive done it a few times

[white scarab]

I wonder what the craziest playtest bugs were

[left ivy]

Remember when I got to ante 7 and we thought that was INSANE cause of the psychic bug/original hand dupe

fought violet vessel before the boss even existed

[white scarab]

I remember when I thought sub 2 was a fast speedrun with that glitch

Since then it’s been beaten by like 25 seconds glitchless with the full 8 antes

[left ivy]

If the latest ante skip didnt take so long to do it would have been insane! almost sub 1... almost

[white scarab]

You could probably sub 1 that demo on a good seed

Just jump from ante 1 to 6

[left ivy]

true

[white scarab]

And it got banned too

[left ivy]

OH YEAH!
I forgot about that ngl

[white scarab]

I even removed pausing the game pausing the timer in my timer mod

Since other speedrun moderators thought that was not a good idea

[left ivy]

lol

I need to get my obs to work

speeding balatro and bph could be fun

especially since they still havent patched my glitch that just completely skips the game for bph

[white scarab]

You should check with the speedrun community if that’s allowed for BPH

[glad sedge]

if anyone finds how to change default multiplier of antes let me know im going crazyyyy

how it sounds so easy but cannot find it. also the wall properties are inexisten in blinds.lua just the code for when you disable it

[white scarab]

You would probably need to modify the function that has that information

https://discord.com/channels/1116389027176787968/1219418031546040351
This mod might show you how?

[glad sedge]

problem is cannot find that at all

[rare shell]

speedrun tote to death any%

[white scarab]

Search 2800 in the code

[rare shell]

[white scarab]

Actually I think I might know what file it’s in

Ok the function is called get_blind_amount

idk what file is in, was just looking at some old screenshots I had

[dusky reef]

making those easy mechanic jokers are so fast now

shoot typo

[glad sedge]

that was conveniently uploaded today thanks guysssssss

[rare shell]

so are these seperate jokers that show up on the collection and spawn in shop or?

[dusky reef]

no ideally none of them will spawn in shop

they are only playable from the specific deck

which automatically adds the x-playing joker

which transforms to all of the others

I think I am aiming to make all of them round-based, so no growth but hopefully collectively gives the player a lot of options per round

[hardy brook]

So basically it's what I want to do down the line with stuff like the alphabet cards remade for Balatro Archived +

[dusky reef]

sounds great

[ocean torrent]

what did i do wrong 😭

[exotic shadow]

did you save the 1x spritesheet to the 2x folder?

[ocean torrent]

huh

i just assumed they were the same

i have the same png in both files

[exotic shadow]

no the 2x one is twice the size

[ocean torrent]

ok well how tf am i supposed to do that omg

[ocean torrent]

so scale to 200%?

[exotic shadow]

yeah

[ocean torrent]

thanks

[dapper helm]

what happens if you deplete all options in a certain pool? like for example if you have a negative copy of every tarot from using perkeo do they never show tarot packs?

does it become only black hole and soul out of planet and tarot packs respectively?

[exotic shadow]

All the pools have a fallback if they can't spawn any

Jokers is the base joker
Planets is pluto
Tarots is fool
Not sure what spectrals have

[dapper helm]

interesting, i might try and find a seed (with seed searcher for sure) that can do that if i get bored

[glad sedge]

@gleaming talon thank you for the mods from nexus , they rock. can you elaborate some time on what logic is being followed exactly on the ante modifiers? is just 2x slower?

[ocean torrent]

how do i override the main files of the game

[rare shell]

to add on

[dusky reef]

Hey guys I just posted an initial version of High Card mod in modding threads. Will keep updating it to complete all 52!

[sullen dome]

hi everyone, i'm trying to install the mod injector but my pc just keeps telling me its a virus, is that fine or is it an actual virus

[dapper helm]

its fine but can be annoying to get past. you can also use this https://discord.com/channels/1116389027176787968/1217867725532041369 and avoid the hassle

[sullen dome]

ok i'll try that, thanks!

[cunning silo]

Hii! I am pretty new to modding, and I wanted to use some debug prints to check my code.
Is there a console I can open to help me?

[sonic pollen]

Whoever answers this please @ me as well I've been wondering this

If I had to strike a guess, I imagine that there's some sort of console read you can check if you can get developer mode open

[wanton rapids]

are you using steamodded or balamod

[cunning silo]

Steamodded, although I do want to look a bit at balamod as well

[wanton rapids]

are you using lovely or not

[cunning silo]

No

Using the normal injector

[wanton rapids]

do you have python installed?

if so, use this python script from the steamodded github https://github.com/Steamopollys/Steamodded/blob/main/debug/tk_debug_window.py

[cunning silo]

Interesting, thanks!

@sonic pollen you wanted to see as well

[wanton rapids]

it opens a window which called from sendDebugMessage() in balatro go to

[cunning silo]

Oh, and another question.
Let’s say I have an idea for a patch to the base game’s code (I am working on trying to find a way to add custom deck textures). Will I be able to make a contribution to the project?

[wanton rapids]

if you can use github, then yes

[sonic pollen]

tkinter my beloathed

thanks for this

So you just run this window alongside balatro and it catches the debug messages and displays them?

[cunning silo]

Cool. Thanks a bunch! I was looking for more games to mod, and this is a new one that is very interesting

[midnight arrow]

Does modding disable achievements? looking for some gui mods but would like to still progress

[sonic pollen]

as far as I know, no

[wanton rapids]

steamodded does, but there's a mod to enable them

[cunning silo]

What are the benefits of using Balamod over Steammodded?

[rare shell]

yo itayfeder 👋

iirc balamod doesn't alter the game itself while steamodded does

you can just disable balamod and that'll be fine, but you will need to clean your files to uninstall steamodded

[cunning silo]

Wait hiiiiiiii

You’re from MCIA right?

[rare shell]

there maybe more things, but this is only what I know (I personally only used steamodded so far)

[rare shell]

yep! 😅

[sonic pollen]

Anyone know if there's any community effort to document the code base

Would be nice to have and to give aspiring coders the convenience of not having to each independently learn how the game works

[ocean torrent]

how do i override the main files of the game

[midnight arrow]

anyone know how to uninstall balamod?

[ocean torrent]

you dont

[ocean torrent]

your cursed forever

[gleaming talon]

uninstall and reinstall game ?

[gleaming talon]

https://tenor.com/view/thats-the-neat-part-you-dont-invincible-gif-27194608

[shell bolt]

bit of an odd question, but does anyone know if theres any way to reset the scores on the stats screen without resetting like.. everything lmao
i mistakenly was playing modded on my normal profile (yes, i know) and now my stats screen shows ante 39 and 3000$ etc.. haha
would like if i could somehow fix that although i doubt it
it luckily didnt set my high score to naneinf, but it did for some reason set it to 0

[ocean torrent]

I think you could by doing like overiding

Or just make a new save file and cheat everything in with the dev tools

that same thing happend to me and idk what to do either

[gleaming talon]

Yeah that's because it's bugged setting high score to naninf

naninf is as it says in it's name "not a number"

[ocean torrent]

If you figure it out tell me

[gleaming talon]

Probably doable

I can maybe see what I can do

OR, you can try to modify your profile.jkr file

[shell bolt]

i was thinking about that but i dont know how to modify it lol

that was the first thing i went to check

[gleaming talon]

save file editor, you can put it in it, be aware that you need to backup your file coz there's a high chance of a crahs and your profile not working after replacing it

https://www.saveeditonline.com

Try to mess with that

[shell bolt]

yep instacrash

i was able to find and alter it

im not sure why im getting this error though

only altering one digit

i found a saveeditor for balatro on github but im too dumb to use it i think lmao

[cunning silo]

So, I am trying to make a feature that will allow custom deck sprites. It almost works, but it gets into problems in the start game menu.
Apparently, the function that controls it (set_sprite on the top card of the 10 card showcase deck), is only called once we try and open the menu.
How do I force it to be called every time I cycle through decks?

[gleaming talon]

It might be a different function

[upper egret]

hey guys, is there any tutorial anywhere to install mods?

[gleaming talon]

I'm not sure it also modifies the profile file

[gleaming talon]

just go on the github page of Steamodded

[upper egret]

alr

[upper egret]

windows defender is automatically deleting it, how do i turn it off?

[gleaming talon]

When you dl it, windows will say a pop up like "virus detected", click ont it, click on the "detected malware", and click "keep it"

[upper egret]

im trying to install via lovely since my antivurs is really annoying, but i cant find the download on this page, do you know where it is? https://github.com/ethangreen-dev/lovely-injector/tree/master

[shell bolt]

did you have any luck using the save website you linked earlier?

[gleaming talon]

Nope

[gleaming talon]

You can also choose to disable antivirus

but if you use powershell install it will cause no proble

It should*

[upper egret]

nah still flags it as virus already tried

[gleaming talon]

I'll look at the thing that writes to the profile what I can do if I have time

[upper egret]

Could someone help me with lovely, i cant find the latest release section/what file to download https://github.com/ethangreen-dev/lovely-injector/tree/master

[shell bolt]

click releases on the right hand side

its super tiny

[upper egret]

breh

when im in a confusing download competition and my opponent is github

[shell bolt]

hahaha

i had to ask myself i spent 5minutes looking for it

[upper egret]

thx tho

btw

i just put mods in the mods folder rightn

not modsname

[shell bolt]

yeah mods is pretty decent at going through shit

the .luas will just go in mods

and then some mods will have an assets folder

mods like ankh or lovely the whole folder just goes in /mods

[upper egret]

say i have 2 mods with assets folders, do i put all assets into one asset folder?

cuz otherwise theyll be called assets 1 and assets 2

[shell bolt]

yea i just merged mine

[upper egret]

what about 1x and 2x, both of my mods have those names

in like the assets sub folder

[shell bolt]

i pretty much just merged and hit yes to replace whenever it asked

[serene sandal]

how do i play this game on mac, anyone got any ideas? Im on Sonoma 14

[north moat]

steam for mac have this game

[peak oak]

Steam

[serene sandal]

Oh okay 👌

Thought it was only for pc

[twin herald]

Mac version was released at the beginning of this month!

Generally, you can tell if mac is supported by seeing the OS icon above the buy button

[serene sandal]

thanks mate, I bought this game when it came out

so I was eager to see if it would come out on mac.

i need to something to do from time to time on my work laptop lol

[rare shell]

Is it possible to change spritePos/sprite of a Joker?

like that (this doesn't work)

[cosmic shell]

it's just pos, not spritePos

[rare shell]

still no effect

(I'm certain that this part is triggered)

[gleaming talon]

1px is very small

try increasing it

x)

[cosmic shell]

you might need to set it like self.pos.x = 1 etc that's how it's done in Back:change_to.

[rare shell]

oh does this pos uses different length measure?

[cosmic shell]

it's not 1 pixel, it's 1 atlas column or row

[rare shell]

will try

[gleaming talon]

mb

[gleaming talon]

are you sure the game does not override the pos/spritepos later ?

Since it makes the Joker move a bit etc

[rare shell]

🤷‍♂️

[cosmic shell]

i think the sprite position is actually under self.config.center.pos

[grand geode]

why aren't you changing it on joker declaration

[cosmic shell]

I assume they're trying to make a joker that dynamically changes sprite.

[rare shell]

because I do funny thing

I'll showcase it wait a sec gotta download something to record gif

[grand geode]

thomnk

[rare shell]

that worked, thanks!

cassette a/b sides (woah these colors are sure crusty)

[gleaming talon]

that's neat

[rare shell]

I want to make different effect depending on cassette's side

less crusty

[cosmic shell]

small nitpick, i think it would look better if the b-side was facing the other direction since it already does a flipping animation

[gleaming talon]

Feels like you're too smart for me

[past tendon]

neat, I had an idea for an alternating joker, glad to see changing the sprite is possible

[rare shell]

🤪 will need to make a complete resprite for that

can't just flip a sprite because then all the lights will be wrong

but honestly is balatro nitpicky when it comes to light source?

if we count art jokers, they do have different position of light source, like here for example

but most of them are top/top-left

top-left:

top:

Also sprite changes before the flip happens, I need to change it mid-way somehow

I think I need this?

[past tendon]

it's hardly noticeable in that case but it may be a problem if the sprite changes a lot yeah

[rare shell]

it is very noticeable with this

(should I also swap "B" with "DJ-oker" on the second one?)

[past tendon]

I guess it makes more sense (just a small nitpick though)

[rare shell]

but from readability standpoint?

[cosmic shell]

thinking about how it would be written if it was a real tape the B would probably be on the other side (to the right of DJ-oker i mean)

[gleaming talon]

Not always

[rare shell]

can someone name me good pairs/counterparts in this game?

like
discard/hand
enhanced/not
chips/mult
etc

[cosmic shell]

red suits and black suits could be one

[woeful finch]

steven todd

[rare shell]

doesn't quite work with high contrast mode tho but makes sense anyways

[gleaming talon]

Positive/Negative (Joker)

[rare shell]

was surprisingly easy to implement proper flipping

any more counterparts/pairs?

[rare shell]

odd/even is a good one I must admit lol

[gleaming talon]

I'm thinking

Negative & positive also works with consumable & perkeo

[rare shell]

I wish negative playing cards existed

everyone's point against them is they will require additional poker hands

but why can't you make them just not count in poker hands and just work like splash

[gleaming talon]

They can just add +1 hand size

[past tendon]

depends on how they work.

planet/tarot could be another pairing

[rare shell]

also negative cards will be handy when discarding large amount of cards

[gleaming talon]

Yeah but there's also spectral

[rare shell]

face/not?

[gleaming talon]

Yes also

!= chips amount also

[rare shell]

guys I play this game for like 6 hours (rookie numbers) but I still don't get what is interest and what it does besides giving me money

and how it increases

[gleaming talon]

easy

it gives 1$ every 5$ you have

but caps at 5$ offer max (unless voucher)

and you receive it after finishing a blind

So if you have 18$ when finishing a blind, when you collect money it'll give you +3$

[rare shell]

there's also this diagram joker yeah?

that does something with uncapping it

[gleaming talon]

Diagram joker ?

[wanton rapids]

to the moon

doubles the amount of interest you get

that's it

[gleaming talon]

Yeah no uncapping it

[rare shell]

yeah I forgot what it does

I kinda didn't understand what it does tbh

[gleaming talon]

well if you have 200$ it should give you 40$ at end

so not related to interest just acts the same way

[rare shell]

anyways I thought there's counterpart to this too but I guess there's not

[gleaming talon]

nope no counterpart

well, if you skip blind you get no money for it

[rare shell]

any counterpart for money?

sell value can be considered a pair to current money I guess

[grand geode]

it doubles interest and that's it

if the cap is $5 then this gives an extra $5

[past tendon]

I think odd/even or black/red would be good just because they're straightforward (and are already used by other jokers so people are familiar with these)

[rare shell]

yep!

wonder if I should do both or only one of these

I think odd/even will be the best choice

but at the same time I'll need to clarify which cards are considered odd/even, like todd and steven do

[hardy brook]

So I found some old challenges in some of the old channels on the server

A lot of them from GothicLordUK, and I thought some of them would be fun to remake

I even concepted an updated version of "The Draft"

    - Open 10 Mega Tarot Packs, Mega Planet Boosters (Alternating opening)
    - 3 Joker Slots

The Draft (Updated)
    - Start with a deck of 1 Ace of Spades. Open 10 Mega Standard Packs, then alternate between Mega Tarot and Mega Planet boosters
    - 3 Joker Slots
        - The game would start with a LOT of tags as a heads up.```

So yeah... You're pretty much starting the game with 20/30 tags that give you packs, which is a lot

They said ULTIMATE packs, but idk what an Ultimate pack is

[grand geode]

why tags, just run the open function directly

well probably more complicated than giving a billion tags lol

[hardy brook]

Because i don't know how to do that

lol

I know how to give people tags at the start of the challenge run

I think

I woke up not long ago

Wait that's banned tags

I'll figure it out later

I wanna work on the texture pack

[rare shell]

how do I check if joker is specifically in joker slots?

I thought it is context.cardarea == G.jokers but it isn't

[magic sandal]

technically it only doubles it if you have 1 of them, since if you add another one it would go to 3 not 4

[tepid sentinel]

How would I go about creating a deck with fewer cards? Simply deleting from g.playing_cards doesn't seem to work, I'm still trying to figure it out.

[rare shell]

odd todd even steven but 2x

[twin herald]

I'd argue the 2x is overkill

You already are getting a good deal for having a two-in-one joker

[rare shell]

+6, +45 then?

[twin herald]

Idk. Id just keep them the same values as odd todd and even steven

[rare shell]

It's uncommon and also it's a little bit more unpredictable than todd and steven

[past tendon]

also depends on rarity. Since it's uncommon I wouldn't be too surprised if it had slightly better values than odd todd/even steven

+8/+60 sounds like a lot though

[rare shell]

switched to 6/45

also is the wording alright here?

[past tendon]

for example fibo is uncommon and gives +8 for specific ranks

[rare shell]

also actually I don't know if I even want odd/even thing

might do dark/light suits

after all, the cassette itself has ranks in its sprite

might underline them based on side

[past tendon]

many cool design spaces to explore here. I think you should playtest a few ideas and see which one is the most fun/interesting

[rare shell]

what do you think about this?

[prime cairn]

it looks good

[rare shell]

I'm talking about suits underlined on each side

[prime cairn]

oh

why is there 3 suits

[rare shell]

https://github.com/Aurelius7309/SixSuits/tree/master

[prime cairn]

ohh

[rare shell]

additional suits are from here

[prime cairn]

The little suits look good

It's easy to understand

[rare shell]

(note: not my sprites)

[prime cairn]

I downloaded so many mods and it still works

about 10

I heard jelly mod doesn't work with others

but

It worked after downloading them in diffrent folders

[grand geode]

it isn't compatible with some others because it overwrites functions

so if the other mod is also using that same function then Too bad!

[prime cairn]

k

[gleaming talon]

it wouldn't be if the mods were loaded in a precise order

like mods that overwrite functions have higher priority than other so that it causes as little problem as possible with cross modding

[grand geode]

good luck getting ordering to work with current steamodded lol

[gleaming talon]

Yeah I ain't gonna do that

would be cool to have it tho

like set a priority in the header of a file

and if you don't have one its lowest priority automaticly

[hardy brook]

Note: Are My Sprite edits

What'cha up to?

Seems intriguing from what I've seen

[rare shell]

Moons are considered dark suit, stars are considered light suit

there are tiny suits in this card, which include moons & stars

this seems to be working well with custom suits, yaay

[rapid bridge]

how long do you guys think i should wait before i install any mods? so far im 12 hours vanilla but i was thinking of adding a lot more hours first

[rare shell]

Personally I'd just install mods the first minute as long as I know what to and what to not expect from the main game

[rapid bridge]

that’s valid tbh

i haven’t rlly looked at them yet but so far i’d only be into cosmetic mods

[rare shell]

I like mods that do not add something that doesn't fit the main game (for example high-res art, specific memes and references, etc)

[rapid bridge]

yeah that’s what i was thinking about too for what i want

[prime cairn]

what mod adds a fps counter?

[grand geode]

debug mode

[hardy brook]

Oh that’s cool

[rare shell]

Honestly I wish six suits didn't add suits right at the start of the game

And instead were suits you buy with booster packs or get through taro

[hardy brook]

I think you can so that with an unchecked six suits

Starting the game with 4 suits

[rare shell]

huh?

How do I uncheck?

[hardy brook]

Unless the mod removed it, when you pick a deck it should say 6 suits underneath to enable or disable

I wonder if people figured out how to make custom packs

[hardy brook]

Oh that’s odd

Guess that was removed in the update

[rare shell]

😭

[rare shell]

I'm also wondering about custom editions

[hardy brook]

You’d have to figure out shaders

Because editions use shaders

[prime cairn]

I don't remember downloading a debug mode but there is a fps counter..

[hardy brook]

Show?

Or show your mods folder

I may be able to figure out which mod

[prime cairn]

so many mods

[hardy brook]

First off, damn, none of mine lol

[prime cairn]

oh

[hardy brook]

Strange

[prime cairn]

most of the mods there are deck or joker ones

[hardy brook]

I can’t seem to find the debug mod

Surprised they’re all compatible tho

[prime cairn]

idk how they work but I'm suprised too

Someone said jelly mods doesn't 100% work with others

but it works..

should I just ignore the frame counter

[hardy brook]

I guess. where'd you get the mods just so i can check

[prime cairn]

https://github.com/jie65535/awesome-balatro

I'm getting mods from here

[hardy brook]

not sure what would be giving you it from the list you got there

[prime cairn]

k

thanks for help

[rare shell]

shaders part sounds fun, adding the edition doesn't

[hardy brook]

Trust me, it's gonna suck when I have to remake the editions for archived

[tepid sentinel]

Do decks have to have 52 cards?

[prime cairn]

oh no I think adding more mods crashes the game before it launches

[woeful finch]

abandoned deck:

[rare shell]

yeahhh 🤕

[tepid sentinel]

Mmmm it's true I forgot, i can't figure out how to make one with less than 52

[prime cairn]

So many decks

how is the game still working

[rare shell]

iterative design

[steady parrot]

Where's the mod at that lets me hear this version of the theme when I play........

https://youtu.be/WJi6m7R8ADY?si=DjfSntLGoSce7ZHP

[rare shell]

when you make it yourself

I want to make a mod that geniunely adds more music to the game

because hearing the same tune for hours makes your brain rot

I like that it does dynamic music thing with location, but it is not enough

something something vanilla music for ante 1-3, custom for ante 4-6, other custom for the rest and so on

mobile balatro?

is this some sort of unofficial port i dont know about

if this is unofficial, then

[bleak oriole]

AH

[rare shell]

anyway

you're quick lmao

[bleak oriole]

Never appear 😄

[rare shell]

so uh

firch

yo?

out of curiousity i was looking in the games files

and i think i came to the conclusion that the theme we all here is actually a slowed down version of the theme

?????

what?

really?

im not going to post the source files here because know

but yeah

I think it slows down when you lose a run

no but like

default its pitched down

go to /resources/sounds/music1.ogg

let me check

hell I can't play oggs

gotta install vlc or something

one sec

(I just got a new pc that's why lol)

i think music3 is what plays during a run loss (but its still pitched down)

Is soundtrack that is included on steam is also pitched down?

im not sure

[prime cairn]

11 pages of mods

[magic sandal]

which file contains the jokers? i wanna see how jokers are written

[rare shell]

card.lua

vlc installed

holy shit it's so fast

im losing my mind

and now i can definitely tell its pitched down by default now

[hardy brook]

screw it, I'm gonna try and finally beat my extreme deck

[rare shell]

this is cursed knowledge

[hardy brook]

i want to at least beat it with white stake

it's THAT hard

[prime cairn]

diamond needle

[rare shell]

I wonder if localthunk pitched it down on purpose because the music felt too intense

that'd make sense

also it's not only pitched but sped down I think

[cosmic shell]

arguably those are the same thing

[rare shell]

nope

not really

depends on how you do that

[grand geode]

🎉

the actual files are sped up for reduced file size

[rare shell]

you can pitch down and resample and lose no speed

[rare shell]

ayo is that true?

[woeful finch]

i think it’s at 70% speed and pitch and tune decreases

[rare shell]

that would make sense

[woeful finch]

forgot exact amounts

[hardy brook]

This is already painful

I just want to get one UNSEEDED WIN

I wanna see someone actually try and get an unseeded win on it

https://github.com/XenoCHeart/Crimsons-Ultimate-Card-Collection/tree/main/ExtremeDeck in case anyone wants to try it as a standalone mod

[gleaming talon]

can you know the number of card played in the "context" from the eval_card fction ?
And what is the way to get it ?

[cosmic shell]

I assume so since half joker exists

[stone brook]

context.full_hand i believe

[rare shell]

#context.full_hand specifically would get the number of cards played (not just scored)

[gleaming talon]

thanks guys

[rare shell]

quick, I have one joker left, what should he do

mosaic joker

at least give me a theme for his ability

[hardy brook]

After each hand, turn a random card left in the deck into a glass card

Finally got to Ante 2, my gosh

[woven sonnet]

Stones give +mult? That's one of the ceramic/tile mosaics right

[hardy brook]

I probably did 30 resets already

[rare shell]

yes

also this suggestion is nice

do we have something like that in base game?

[rare shell]

stone makes more sense than glass

also that card pack is sadistic

[hardy brook]

I thought mosaics were gla-

no wait

That's stained glass

Then yeah stone cards

[rare shell]

I think you meant vitrage windows

ty guys

will make mult on stone cards I think

simple yet tasty

[hardy brook]

Oh my gosh I actually got a safe haven with grabber

[gleaming talon]

noice

[lean dune]

now get hieroglyph without grabber

loses on the spot

[rare shell]

Is it possible to create custom unlock conditions?

for modded jokers*

[hardy brook]

My gosh, this is actualyl stressful

[grand geode]

yes but steamodded doesn't save it

[grand geode]

because it loads after loading save files

[rare shell]

perharps it is possible to create custom save file?

figures why it keeps spamming me for checking my joker discoveries

oh yeah also that

[hardy brook]

Doing Jimbo Only now

My gosh this run

[gleaming talon]

Has anyone managed to add negative to a joker ?

I'm struggling a bit on this part

checked how ectoplasm does it and in "Card" class it keeps using self (I'm sorry if I'm asking stupid questions I self taught myself lua)

I want to do : self.eligible_editionless_jokers

So basicly get a table of eligible jokers that can have negative

[bold bluff]

Hi everyone, does anyone know why some of the modded jokers don't seem to work?, blackjack joker lollipop and a couple others from various mods didn't work, the cards would be able to be bought just not actually trigger in game, not entirely sure why so I was wondering if anyone here has had this problem

[gleaming talon]

If they rewrite eahc others function they won't work so maybe that's why

[bold bluff]

I did kinda just throw a bunch of mods in at once😅

I didn't feel like bugfixing last night, I'll have to look into it more today when I get home

Jelly just crashed everytime, I don't remember if I ever tried just Jelly, so maybe thats why

[gleaming talon]

this won't cause problem

this will

for each function that is redefined

you can usually see if it's redefined by the length of the new function

If there's a lot of line, likeley rewritten

[bold bluff]

At the top of my head this doesn't make sense, but I have some programming knowledge so when I'm looking in the Lua scripts I'll see if I can fiqure it out

[gleaming talon]

Just if there's no call to the "original function" for a redefined function expect it to cause problem for mod that uses the same function

[bold bluff]

Because then it's only looking for local data instead of data throughout the whole game or am I way off?

My guess is that it has to do with how each mod sees its own assets and scripts but like I said thats just a guess and I'm not at my pc so I can't even look into the files to investigate 🤣

[gleaming talon]

Well it doesn't work but you get the idea

If someone implements a change and after a script get executed and completely erase the modified function they won't work as intended

[bold bluff]

Is there a fix for it? I'm a big fan of absolutely crazy mod packs in all my games

[white scarab]

I think it depends on modders’ design philosophies when going about modding the game

Balamod lets you inject code into the middle of a function if you need to iirc

[bold bluff]

I'm using steammod I think it's called

The other one lol I know it's not balamod

[white scarab]

When using Steamodded you have to try to redefine as little as possible

[white scarab]

Using something like this, where you reference what the function initially did

Depending on the function and what you want to do it may be impossible with current Steamodded features

[gleaming talon]

yes that's really useful, I might switch just because of this functionality

[bold bluff]

Well I just downloaded a bunch of steammodded mods and shoved them in and aslong as it didn't crash, I played a deck, and I noticed some issues lol

[white scarab]

I think as the modding scene evolves the design philosophies will change to be more welcoming for mod packs, where code is injected with features like that

[bold bluff]

Having a non invasive general modding system would be great but is there any current working solutions? Because the whole modding community would need to get together and follow a functional system for it to just, w o r k

[white scarab]

I think you would have to speak to the mod developers to see if they can fix overriding issues in different functions

Sometimes even with that system two mods may conflict each other

Like maybe they both add the same kind of enhancement but with two different effects

Now it’s there twice

But I think that’s an issue with making mod packs in general anyway

[bold bluff]

I mean, would just changing the name of the function, fix functionality? Or is it more inside then that

[white scarab]

Well then how would other mods know which version of the function to use? That doesn’t scale well I don’t think

[bold bluff]

Ohh I think I see what your saying. If the name isn't a standard then mods can't communicate with eachother?

[white scarab]

Yeah

If every other mod is using a different function and the game only calls one of them, only one of the mods changes will apply

I know with my mod I’ve kind of been ignoring this issue

But it’s also meant to be standalone

It doesn’t even use a modloader

[bold bluff]

I mean, communication between mods wouldn't be needed for every mod? Jokers should be calling its own script and having the game execute it? Extra suits or decks are one thing but jokers should be a relatively isolated thing, no?

[gleaming talon]

wait, the shuffle is always the same ?

[white scarab]

Uh

I’m not sure if the game adds on the seed inside that function or outside of it

Check what it does for your deck

If it doesn’t use seed then that’s actually huge for beating the boss

Since every shuffle is deterministic for a certain number of jokers

[gleaming talon]

yup

But maybe I'm looking the wrong file but this is strange

[bold bluff]

Me not actually knowing Lua is making reading these hard lol

[runic kraken]

is @carmine flare here?
I kindly joinked his code for the UI box and need his permission if I want to publish my mod

[white scarab]

I know for card shuffles it uses seed but I forget if that seed is added when shuffle() is called in the specific part of the code or when shuffle() is called in general

I think for specific parts

[bold bluff]

Python and C# are what I have experience in

[rigid jewel]

Speaking of seeds, how would you go about making custom jokers follow custom seeded logic? I tried it for a few jokers and couldn't get it to work so I stuck with math.random

[carmine flare]

Go for it

[rigid jewel]

I have a very poor understanding with seeds in games in general

[runic kraken]

Thank you 😄

[white scarab]

Which part are you trying to seed? I’m kind of the seed expert here

[bold bluff]

Seed based randomization is crazy🤣

[gleaming talon]

could someone help me with this ?

[white scarab]

In general the strategy is to pretty much just copy thunk’s homework when doing that

Each joker uses a string for their own identification in the seed so you can change that to something that fits the joker name

[rare shell]

card:set_edition({ negative = true })?

or some variation of that

replace card with whatever is being negative'd

[gleaming talon]

that would cause problem if the Joker already has an edition

but I found what I wanted

I thought there would be like a magic function for that but no, it's just hardcoded like this lmao

[rare shell]

i mean you could also just check if the joker has an edition before running the code

like how the snippet does

[gleaming talon]

that would cause problem for infinite loop

not if I integrate it properly

[rare shell]

fair

[gleaming talon]

but I found what I wanted anyways XD

[rare shell]

wait wait wait if the game loads the saves before steamodded, how it remembers this then???

🤯

[bold bluff]

How did you guys learn the games code? Like I know Lua is a programming language but how did you learn to communicate in a way the game would understand,

I havnt been able to find any info on it

[rare shell]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

maybe the players save file remembers what jokers you won with based on internal id

[gleaming talon]

not save file but profile file probably

[rare shell]

i just looked at everyone elses mods

and the source code

¯_(ツ)_/¯

why doesn't it remembers anything else then

is it stupid?

maybe not everything is being stored

i know steammodded has some kinks regarding that

I hope they will fix that

[gleaming talon]

yup it's in the profile.jkr file

[rare shell]

also I think I implemented all the jokers I made!

welcome to the fold

That means I need to make wiki for the mod, tweak stuff like sell value & rarity and I will release the mod

you're initiated now

oh

you should look at

https://github.com/notmario/balatrowebsitetemplate

took me about 10 minutes to set up

is that that fancy thing with balatrorian background?

yarp

epic

https://spikeof2010.github.io/JankJonklers/ mines here

but I think github wiki will be cleaner honestly

I can do both

no harm in doing both in fact

[rigid jewel]

Here's the list of jokers currently using math.random that ideally could use pseudorandom
1: Chameleon Joker's selection of a joker to dupe (basically acts as blueprint but to a random compatible joker position, does selection on context.setting_blind)
2: Taliaferro and Royal Gala (identical logic to Gros Michel and Cavendish)
3: Virus's selection of cards to convert to played card (probably the most complex to seed, but maybe localthunk cooked a joker to steal the logic from)
4: Ban List's selection of poker hand types to not get money from (very similar logic to To Do List, but there's two hands instead of one so I couldn't really steal To Do List)

[rare shell]

mad respect for that

[rigid jewel]

If you need me to elaborate on Virus I can

The code is beyond scuffed

[rare shell]

thank you for the site

[gleaming talon]

feels a bit underwhelming

[rare shell]

thank not mario when hes around

will do

i still need to fix his destroy effect

and also reword it so its clear that you get $3 per card destroyed

[gleaming talon]

ohhh OKAY I understand now

[rare shell]

😛

[gleaming talon]

Yeah the text is ambiguous

[bold bluff]

Maybe instead of destroy it can lower card rank by 1 or 2 cus destroy seems brutal for legendary

[rare shell]

you think writing custom magic cards for years would teach me a thing or two about text formatting but unfortunately i am dumber than a bag of rocks

[gleaming talon]

For each numbered card scored in your first hand each round, destroy it and gain $3

[rare shell]

antialiasing in my balatro??? lmao

listen!!!

i added it before i found out thunks guide

[bold bluff]

🤣

[rare shell]

death.

[gleaming talon]

that's what they all say

[rare shell]

besides its one level of aa it never hurt anyone,,,

[rare shell]

I'm literally searching for this exact image right now lol

you're faster

trying to scan the joker page for any AA'd jokers and i think the only one i could find that would come close is lumpytouch's vagabond

and i guess polaroid sorta??

yeah theres some in the more "blurry" backgrounds like that and trading card, all as a background element though admittedly

dagger also sort of has some aa on the handle

[gleaming talon]

lmao my post on discord for my mod evolved into a nexusmods debate : https://discord.com/channels/1116389027176787968/1219418031546040351

[bold bluff]

Is the math for that just a number or like a whole ass equation?

[rare shell]

alright, back to trying to fix fortuno

so this is underneath context.individual checking for G.play

                if self.ability.name == 'Fortuno' and not context.blueprint and G.GAME.current_round.hands_played == 0 then
                    local card_to_destroy = context.other_card or nil
                    if context.other_card:is_face() or context.other_card:get_id() == 14 or card_to_destroy == nil then
                        return nil
                    end
                    card_to_destroy.getting_sliced = true
                    G.E_MANAGER:add_event(Event({func = function()
                        (context.blueprint_card or self):juice_up(0.8, 0.8)
                        card_to_destroy:start_dissolve({G.C.RED}, nil, 1.6)
                    return true end }))
                    ease_dollars(self.ability.extra.dollars)
                    return {
                        message = localize('$')..self.ability.extra.dollars,
                        colour = G.C.MONEY,
                        delay = 0.45, 
                        remove = true,
                        card = self
                    }
                end```
issues i have ran into
duplicates of fortuno will delete the same card twice and result in having empty cards occupy the players hands that are always selected

okay nevermind i am dumb and i figured it out

🦆

[cunning silo]

Hey!
So, I have added a new suit (yay!), and I was trying to use that suit's color in a joker (the usual +4 mult one).
But, when I tried to use the normal system (using the special notations), it was not colored in, which is interesting, since the cards themselves have the correct color.
Is this a known problem?

[rare shell]

just need to check if the card is getting sliced first

this discord is magical because i just type my problems in and suddenly i figure out everything, incredible!

I think suit jokers have actual colors

[cunning silo]

they do, but i used the same description format as them

[rare shell]

ah now I understand

I think you can check sixsuits mod for reference

[shell bolt]

boosting this because its the only thing i care about rn lol

[cunning silo]

localization:

            j_greedy_joker = {
                name = "Greedy Joker",
                text = {
                    "Played cards with",
                    "{C:diamonds}#2#{} suit give",
                    "{C:mult}+#1#{} Mult when scored", 
                }
            }

mine:

    local dazed_joker_def = {
        name = "Dazed Joker",
        text = {
            "Played cards with",
            "{C:stars}Stars{} suit give",
            "{C:mult}+4{} Mult when scored"
        }
    }

[rare shell]

they also add two new suits and have that text colorization thing

also btw sixsuits mod already has stars

[cunning silo]

oh it does? ):

[rare shell]

yep!

[bold bluff]

Yea stars and moons

[midnight arrow]

it's over

[cunning silo]

and they are even of a similar color XD

[bold bluff]

Should totally add more though. Even more chaos 🙂

[rare shell]

I WANT:
Eagles
Shields

my life will be complete

[bold bluff]

More suits the better

[cunning silo]

looking through it, there is no place where they use the special localization

they didn't add a new suit joker though

[rare shell]

oh yeah I forgot they're yet to add these suit jokers

but they have custom hands implemented which is nice

[rigid jewel]

Localization args like these require you to make your own color definition for the UI to reference

[rare shell]

like 5 different suits result in custom hand

[rigid jewel]

I'm not familair with UI enough to know how

Best guess is making an entry in G.ARGS.LOC_COLOURS in misc_funcion file

[cunning silo]

i am planning on adding a new hand for a 5 of a kind with all different suits

[rare shell]

don't listen to me, but personally I think you should just collaborate with sixsuits

[bold bluff]

One massive suits mod would kinda make sense instead of 2 smaller suit mods

[cunning silo]

they did that as well didn't they?

[rare shell]

okay im back im stumped

spectrum hands

(not my screenshot)

[cunning silo]

I though I had something original for a moment ):

[rare shell]

I get that. Now I feel bad for ruining it for you 😭

[cunning silo]

nah XD all good

[rare shell]

okay i think im just straight up removing cards wrong

[cunning silo]

I was going to find that mod one way or another

[rare shell]

but for real, it'd be awesome if you contributed to that mod

[cunning silo]

I want to lock the new suit behind a card deck though

(which is the real challenge)

[rare shell]

aye firch you ever get that joker that destroys cards to work?

[rare shell]

yep

I also use dissolve tho

but the problem is is that I destroy the cards at the very end

[bold bluff]

Like only have it for one deck or only have it be available after beating a certain Deck?

[rare shell]

maybe there's some field im not using correctly

which may not cause the same error you have

[cunning silo]

only on one deck

[rare shell]

you can check my repo

i dont know why destroying it in hand generates these phantom cards

this happens after a new blind so they stay in deck

oh wait

am i not removing them from deck

https://github.com/Firch/Bunco/blob/main/Bunco.lua

joker is 'Dread'

[bold bluff]

Maybe have it detect the name of the deck? If so enable the suit ? Ide imagine it's more complicated then that but. It would work possibly

[rare shell]

also it'd be awesome if suits were locked behind a deck

[cunning silo]

oh BTW I tried to use loc_colour from the misc_functions. But it did not really work

[rare shell]

I literally said something like that today to sixsuit's developer

(they currently planning to do menu for toggling additional suits right at the start of a run)

[bold bluff]

An option in mod settings to enable suits for all deck or turn them off at will would be cool, this would make adding suits easier I think with modded decks, I don't know why but sixsuits broke the deck of 4s mod

[cunning silo]

can I just use hex colors directly in the description?

[rare shell]

I'd love a menu, but honestly locking cards behind a deck is even better and feels more vanilla and less like debug

Perharps I'd make a fork one day

[cunning silo]

I am making these mods for my friends, so I will try to see if it's possible

[bold bluff]

I agree it would be more vanilla like, but I live for the chaos 💀

Having 6 8 12 suits brings nightmares to all🤣

[rare shell]

how many suits can you come up with

[cunning silo]

you have the 4 base suits
the 4 tarot ones
moon, star
shield
idk

[bold bluff]

I mean suits are just a symbol really

Can be anything

Pentagram

[cunning silo]

the problem with using G.ARGS.LOC_COLOURS, is that it probably does not load before I try to load it, which means that i cannot add to it

[rare shell]

Stars,
Moons,
Shields,
Eagles,
Spikes,
Flowers,
etc

tried googling, here's someone tried to make designs

anyone know where start_dissolve() is defined at in source?

[rare shell]

one sec

[bold bluff]

I just think alot of suits will be chaotic. Probably will cause functionality issues after too many added but whatever

[cunning silo]

okay found a workaround for the colors

Look at this!

[bold bluff]

Yooo

[gleaming talon]

what do you think about this ?

Black seal is only available through standard pack

[rare shell]

huge

very strong

[bold bluff]

That would be crazy

[rare shell]

only available through standard pack seems deece though

[bold bluff]

For sure

[cunning silo]

This is the workaround BTW.
You call loc_colour to make G.ARGS.LOC_COLOURS initialize itself, and then you add your own color

[gleaming talon]

Yeah but people will want to buy more Standard pack, which I fell like isn't done a lot

I finally finished the code and everything should work

[bold bluff]

Not in vanilla meta so this is smart

[gleaming talon]

and you can't cheese it by duping it because I remove every black seal from the deck after it's played

[bold bluff]

Yesss perfect

[gleaming talon]

if you could copy it it would really be broken

[bold bluff]

What if it was a dupe in hand? Would I still be deleated?

[gleaming talon]

Yes

[bold bluff]

Because isn't in hand and in deck two different clarifications

Ah ok

[gleaming talon]

Every single card in the deck I loop though to remove it

[bold bluff]

Perfect then

[gleaming talon]

yes but also lua G.playing_cards

lists every card everywhere

[bold bluff]

Ah that works as a general call I assume

[gleaming talon]

hand, discarded and deck

[bold bluff]

Is G standing for game? In the code, I see it everywhere

[gleaming talon]

Yup

it also is equal to self in main

[cunning silo]

G is standing for globals in Lua isn't it?

[rare shell]

I feel like I went trough every file and couldn't find it

[bold bluff]

OK, so essentially irrelevant to what the code means

[rare shell]

maybe I'm just tho

[cosmic shell]

it's more acuratly the Game object, but it contains a lot of global values

[cunning silo]

ohhh i see

[gleaming talon]

can't seem to find it either

[spice spear]

you would HATE some of the sprites I've made for the ShamPack jokers

[cunning silo]

BTW how would you guys go about limiting a suit to a specific deck?

[rare shell]

wait you want to limit it completely?

[bold bluff]

I still think a check for deck name before actually 'running' the suit script would work, but I know it's more complicated then that

[cunning silo]

from other decks, yup

[rare shell]

like so it won't appear in shops/packs in other decks

[cunning silo]

yup

[glad sedge]

Boys a little help here?

this doesnt work

[rare shell]

I thought that it wont appear at start but you'd still be able to get those custom suit cards

[gleaming talon]

at what point is there too much jokers ?

[glad sedge]

never

[bold bluff]

Never

🤣

[cunning silo]

never

[rare shell]

never. Jockactory must grow

[glad sedge]

i understood that reference! factorio lover here

[bold bluff]

Omg how'd I miss that

[spice spear]

super excited for space age

[glad sedge]

i cant wait for friday facts

[gleaming talon]

(at some point in dev there was a bug with black seal and it would trigger like 10times so it resulted to that with rif raf)

[bold bluff]

🤣

[cunning silo]

now im not really sure if trying to limit the suit to a specific deck would actually be worthwhile

[glad sedge]

would any of you guys happen to be patient enough to explain me why this structure of injection doesnt work

[gleaming talon]

hum, I can explain

[bold bluff]

[gleaming talon]

Okay note to myself, if you dissolve the cards at the end of a blind the counter will go back to normal

I'll just need to update G.cardsindeck or something like that

[rare shell]

im

ill work on fortuno later

[dapper cypress]

is there a good tutorial on how to download mods?

[bold bluff]

Ide imagine there's dozens on YouTube already? I'm not sure if there's any linked/mentioned in here though 😦

[left ivy]

never

[dapper cypress]

the one I found and tried to download was blocked by my antivirus so I'm scared to try another one that I don't know for sure is correct

[rare shell]

its fine

its a false flag

it would not be on github if it was a virus

[cunning silo]

@rare shell I think I figured out how to make custom suits appear only in custom decks

but it depends on one thing

what is the method that is called when you start a game?

[rare shell]

uhhh

[cunning silo]

cause I just had a crackpot theory

[rare shell]

?

[cunning silo]

does it also load a game from a save?

[glad sedge]

guys anyone can share one of your injections with steammodded for game.lua to take as reference??

[rare shell]

oh I sent that too early

this is start up of balatro

more like that I think

[cunning silo]

so it also knows what deck you have

good

i think i have an idea

a very stupid one, but an idea indeed

[rare shell]

works = not stupid

(in most cases)

[cunning silo]

who said it's working? XD

apply_to_run runs the deck ability on a run right?

[rare shell]

Don't know how to prove that ngl

I'd just inject something into that and check

but can't find it in the files

[cunning silo]

perhaps not knowing Lua beforehand was a bad idea XD

[rare shell]

nah

[bold bluff]

Steammodded is fine

[rare shell]

you can just make funciton with the same name and call an original function in it

[dapper cypress]

makes sense

thanks

[rare shell]

in a nutshell:

[cunning silo]

yup, doing that rn

i think i found a way to block the suit

[rare shell]

you need to find original function to do so tho

for passing the args

[cunning silo]

BTW how do you remove a card from the playing_cards array?

[rare shell]

quick search: probably something like that

[cunning silo]

what is the 'self' representing here BTW? can I just place any if statement here?

[rare shell]

I think so

anyways it's time to sleep

[cunning silo]

I am basically telling the game "there is no stars suit in ba-sing-se" at this point

[cunning silo]

goodnight

[bold bluff]

Night

[rare shell]

[rigid jewel]

I'm having an error where despite specifically checking for if the other joker's name is To The Moon, it seemingly doesn't proc this joker.
For context: this jokers gives 1.5X mult if the joker earns money in the payout screen. I'm having to specifically check for To The Moon because it doesn't interact with the calculate_dollar_bonus function.

[stone brook]

looks like to the moon doesnt actually do anything in calculate_dollar_bonus

[rigid jewel]

That's why I check for the joker's name

[stone brook]

actually

[left ivy]

I found a bug with the jelly mod

[stone brook]

maybe its called rocket

oh wait no thats the rocket one

first time modding, so far the explanations are really crappy for steammodded, is this how the mods should be placed in the mods folder or nah?

[small wren]

I tried downloading the modloader but Norton spat it out is this a legit concern or Norton being dumb?

[silver moat]

just norton being dumb

[stone brook]

its technically a legit concern, but its fine

[small wren]

Any ideas for a workaround?

[tidal rampart]

how do i apply mods

[stone brook]

theres not really a way around it, you just gotta turn off AVs when you install it

[small wren]

Alright thank you

[frosty lantern]

What is the easiest way to disable mods? Do I just have to take them out of the mods folder? Or can you do it in game?

[tidal rampart]

and how do i make my own mods?

Hey, I need some help with a joker I'm modding. For now I just want to add a polychrome edition to every playing card before they score.

The problem is that if I use the set_edition function outside of an event like this, then all the cards get the edition applied immediately after I hit play, instead of waiting for the animation.

So instead I tried putting the set_edition inside the event function, and it worked correctly, the cards only got the edition applied after the joker triggered. The problem is that now the game just don't recognize their edition and just ignores it for the playing hand and I have no idea why

Does anyone knows what I'm doing wrong here? I spent hours trying to fix this but I've got no idea anymore at this point

[glad sedge]

has anyone experimented with changing the $$$$ for each dollar for ... numbers?

[vocal spoke]

does anyone know if balamod loads folders within the mods folder?

[tropic mason]

steammoddedinjector.exe is marked as a severe trojan, and wont show up in downloads

installing the 7zip version doesnt help as the injector is just a txt file that does nothing

[glad sedge]

what version of os are you running? win 10/11?

[tropic mason]

11

i got that to work

but now it requires dwmapi

which i cant find in

any of hte links

at all

[glad sedge]

are you dragging the balatro.exe to the injector?

[tropic mason]

yeah i gotthat to work

[glad sedge]

when it says that it requires that dll exactly

[cosmic shell]

dwmapi is likely in reference to the lovely injector https://github.com/ethangreen-dev/lovely-injector

[silent cloak]

is the injector really safe?

[tropic mason]

no idea

[silent cloak]

like for the mods?

[tropic mason]

sure hope so

[prime cairn]

How do I remove the mods

[tropic mason]

windows defender hates it with a passion

[prime cairn]

Without

Removing all mods

[silent cloak]

yea thats why

[prime cairn]

It's save

Safe

It says there is a Trojan but

[glad sedge]

injector is safe, as many keygens are. but the way they are codded to interfere with exe files is the same or similar pattern to a actual virus, thats why antiviruses claim its bad

[prime cairn]

Ignore it

[tropic mason]

ok but i still dont understand waht dwmapi is

is that lovely?

[glad sedge]

but dont worry. github has an extensively good detection system and program is trusted

you dont need lovely injector, you can use the binary from the github of steammodded

[prime cairn]

If it was a virus 5% of the balatro community would have already been hacked

[cosmic shell]

lovely takes the form of dwmapi.dll by default so it would be safe to assume so.

[silent cloak]

or they wait for more to get the injector

[tropic mason]

and is this the correct wa to format it cause i saw a lot of questions abt it and am gonna ask preemtively

[sage finch]

Since mods are new, people are working on a easier way to install and remove them right?

[white scarab]

r2modman support is coming soon

Which is a GUI mod manager

[tropic mason]

praise be

[prime cairn]

Installing is just putting folder or a file to mods folder

[white scarab]

I was using an experimental version of the tool and it works nicely

[tropic mason]

yeah but some people are completely incompetent with tech (me)

i dont think ive ever had a smooth way to install mods without the use of like

r2modman or curseforge

its awlas complicated and broken and buggy

[glad sedge]

u still cannot make the steammodded injector to work? reinstall game, download injector, place in folder of balatro, drag balatro.exe wait, done. go to app data, put mods in folders

[tropic mason]

i have no idae

if its wokring

[prime cairn]

What is R2 modman

[tropic mason]

just a mod hosting platform that does it all for you

[glad sedge]

you would see somethinglike this

[tropic mason]

ill boot up see if it works

[white scarab]

It’s a GUI mod manager. So instead of moving folders around you just click buttons to install mods

[prime cairn]

A mods button should show up in game

[tropic mason]

aite yeah

taht works

so its formatted fine?

[prime cairn]

And how does the game get the

[tropic mason]

its such a useful program

[prime cairn]

Mods

[tropic mason]

r2modman hostst the files

you click download

[tropic mason]

it sends them to your pc and instantly puts it in the right place

only problem with r2modman is that its laxer when it comes to security

[prime cairn]

But some mods probably will not go there

Lovely does all the setting up

[tropic mason]

so every once in a while there'kll be a mod tahts just malware

[white scarab]

And it can itself load Steamodded or Balamod

[prime cairn]

Yea I'm not trusting

[tropic mason]

only place ive seen it happen was with uhh

what was it

lethal company

i ahvent seen it hit other games

[prime cairn]

Not taking a chance

[tropic mason]

fair nuff

[bold bluff]

So I'm trying to get jellymod to work, it's the only mod in the folder, any ideas?

[prime cairn]

Just download them one by one

Like

Tarots

[white scarab]

Download from releases page not from GitHub source

[prime cairn]

Then jokers

[tropic mason]

is there like a central page

for mods

[white scarab]

I saw someone get the same error when doing that

[prime cairn]

Yes

[bold bluff]

Ah oki

[white scarab]

https://discord.com/channels/1116389027176787968/1209506514763522108

[silk hound]

Do you have jelly util added? I also may have broken something in the most recent release, so you could try an earlier version.

[prime cairn]

There is a GitHub page for it too

[tropic mason]

i mean more of a cataloge

smn like r2 or nexus

where its just a colalge

and you can pick n choose

[prime cairn]

There is a GitHub page

I don't have a link

[white scarab]

https://github.com/jie65535/awesome-balatro

[bold bluff]

What ever is in the folder, im gunna re download

[prime cairn]

Yea that

I downloaded 20 decks and over 100 new jokers to the game

[tropic mason]
