[gleaming talon]

yup

[rare shell]

understood

[gleaming talon]

😉

[coral shale]

The new download?

[lunar fable]

yha]

1.6 right

[coral shale]

Wait brb

[lunar fable]

also this happens whenever i play a hand that dosent scor

score*

[coral shale]

Welp, you might have to downgrade to v1.5

[lunar fable]

wa wa

[iron juniper]

Still gonna hit 0 out of 25 Bloodstone procs with my luck

[fair current]

I was able to dig it out from the steammodded stuff. I don't usually work with LUA so it's just a bit funky but it's starting to click

[autumn yew]

noice. it works.
If a drawn card would make one of the 5 highest base-score hand types, 1 in 3 chance the card is drawn normally (else discarded).
The boss description text is... long... but I got the effect working

[gleaming talon]

@coral shale your evaluate hand function messes up my black seal

you even simulate them being played

[fickle elbow]

Added two new suits

[coral shale]

Yeah, it's bound to happen. I'm not currently looking to be compatible with mods. Trying to get vanilla version working 😅

[gleaming talon]

[coral shale]

Feel free to open an issue on GitHub to keep me reminded

[gleaming talon]

I'm gonna try and see what I can add to counteract that

tho it could be an issue later

[coral shale]

What does the seal do?

[coral shale]

Hmmm, I'm copying and restoring the jokers and the deck, so I'm not sure why the effects would persist

[gleaming talon]

I have a 0.2 delay

XD

maybe that's why

[coral shale]

Nah, it's cos you change the playing_cards and not deck

[gleaming talon]

I'm gonna ask the person testing to remove it to see

I can maybe change the deck instead ?

I'm gonna try with the G.deck

[autumn yew]

question: does the tarot that copies the last played tarot create a copy of this item?

[gleaming talon]

not a tarot card

it's a seal

[autumn yew]

I know that's a seal, I meant the "thing that adds that seal to cards"

[gleaming talon]

it doesn't exist

[autumn yew]

fair nuff

[gleaming talon]

it's written : "can only be found in standard pack"

[autumn yew]

Wasn't sure if that tooltip was of "a card with the seal" or "a card that grants this seal to a card"

because it pops up on both (like how if you look at Glass Joker it'll tell you what a Glass Card does)

[gleaming talon]

hmmm

but it's in 2 windows right ?

here it's only 1

[autumn yew]

Yes, but you only gave me the one, so I lacked the other context

[gleaming talon]

how would you do with G.deck ?

[coral shale]

idk the difference between deck and playing_cards

It's probably a bug on my end

[gleaming talon]

well, when I go G.deck instead of G.playing_cards it crashes my game 🙂

[coral shale]

Yeah, its my mistake

I need to store playing_cards instead of deck

[gleaming talon]

also I delay the trigger by 0.2 this could also cause some problem

[willow sonnet]

Can anyone help me figure out why jellymod isnt loading textures?

[tribal grove]

So how does one exactly put mods into the game

[gleaming talon]

https://github.com/Steamopollys/Steamodded/tree/main

or lovely

or lovely & steamodded installation

orbalamod

I recommend lovely & steamodded to bypass antivirus

[iron juniper]

Where's a good place to start learning how to make mods / learn Lua?

[candid harbor]

@iron juniper Figure out boolean operatives/logic and then just read other peoples code and cobble it together until it works

So you don't have to start from scratch, the first part will help you just read code in general, like Cypher from Matrix, can't really write it but will be able to pick it apart and know what part does what so you can put it on your own

[west pecan]

Hi, I'm using https://discord.com/channels/1116389027176787968/1221215713910325330 in order to make Voucher about it
I manage to have it working when you buy voucher, and upgrade to "Smart Guy" which is the exact score (lucky card etc)
I looked in JellyVouchers to create mine, and incorporate to DVPreview like this

local apply_to_run_ref = Card.apply_to_run
function Card:apply_to_run(center)
    local center_table = {
        name = center and center.name or self and self.ability.name
    }
    if center_table.name == "Calculator" then
        DV.PRE.enabled = true
        DV.PRE.hide_face_down = true
        DV.PRE.show_min_max = true
    elseif center_table.name == "Smart Guy" then
        DV.PRE.enabled = true
        DV.PRE.hide_face_down = false
        DV.PRE.show_min_max = false
    end
  apply_to_run_ref(self, center)
end```
But if you launch another game, preview score is still showing...so I added a little "else DV.PRE.enabled = false"
But now, nothing appears when we buy Calculator voucher

Am I using the wrong function to see for owned Vouchers ?

[coral shale]

I tried sending you a DM but you don't accept them, so copying here: whenever a player loads a run, you probably need to check if Calculator or Smart Guy are in his jokers vouchers and then enable/disable my mod accordingly.

[west pecan]

oops

done for DM

For people who wants to debug, here is the custom deck and file with asset for Vouchers

[rough cypress]

Can someone help me to install lovely and to get it going ? It's my first time dealing with mod installation and i'm kinda lost...

[ancient junco]

copy dwmapi64.dll into balatro folder (steam -> right click balatro -> properties -> installed files -> browse)

run game for first time

done

[west pecan]

problem solved and working

[bold fiber]

I want to hear some opinions before giving it a shot, how hard do you think it'll be to create a funny bank joker? "If any other card would gain chips or mult, this card gains it instead (Starts with 0 chips and 0 mult)" I feel it'd have some interesting interactions with runner, square, wee joker, castle, green joker, ride the bus. Where eventually you'd sell those cards and keep a single joker with high mult and chips in one.

[coral shale]

Actually an intriguing idea, especially if it would be retroactive

Easy-ish to implement in source, but tricky to implement as a mod.. from first thoughts

[fathom grove]

im cookin something. too bad i have no idea how to code. guess ill have to learn.

[grand geode]

who summoned the 18498735 unnamed project moon fans

[coral shale]

or not tricky but tedious bc you'd have to account for every upgradeable joker

[ancient junco]

is there a way to get the game.love file?

[grand geode]

isn't the .exe basically the .love file

or just rezip the source

[ancient junco]

is it?

i thought it was a one-way zip

[fathom grove]

i just use 7zip(winrar doesnt work for some reason) to unzip the .exe file

[ancient junco]

im looking for the .love file, not the decompressed game

[shy ibex]

Anyway to improve mods so that they save your deck? I had a run with my custom Exodia deck on Ante 16 Big Blind; I was about to lose, backed out, reloaded the save, and my deck went back to base! I would've won the blind if the deck didn't reset.

I also had $1000+ with a Lucky Cat run.

It was INSANE.

[grand geode]

https://love2d.org/wiki/Game_Distribution#Create_a_.love-file

(disclaimer: do not redistribute balatro)

[ancient junco]

im trying to compile balatro to js with love.js and im not very successful

[grand geode]

don't

[rough cypress]

Why do the files available in the modding chat doesn't work when I upload them in the game ?

Do I have to do something with the file ?

[grand geode]

what files?

[exotic pine]

any way to check if achievements are enabled?

[rough cypress]

The .zip files that you can upload. Do I have to modify them to be able to execute them in the game ?

[exotic pine]

in game

[grand geode]

extract them in the mods folder

[rough cypress]

And it's supposed to load in the game even if it's in a file format ?

Cause I extracted my file in the mods folder as you said and it still isn't loading

in the game

[stone brook]

the modloader 'runs' the mods for you when you launch the game

[grand geode]

do you have the mod loader properly installed?

as in, do you see the MODS option when you launch the game

[rough cypress]

Yes yes it's there

it's really when it's time to add the mod that i blocked

[grand geode]

alright. can you show your mods folder?

[stone brook]

try lowercase mods

[grand geode]

inside the mods folder

[stone brook]

also, i just realized how cluttered my roaming/balatro folder is, since i use that as my vscode workspace

[rough cypress]

I tried to lauch a file in the Mods folder. Didn't worked out

[stone brook]

yea you dont need to launch anything in the mods folder

[grand geode]

that one doesn't have a script

[shy ibex]

Added a new custom deck!
https://discord.com/channels/1116389027176787968/1220976513286148126

[grand geode]

so you'll need to directly put the assets into the .exe file

[rough cypress]

maybe you have a mod that worked on your game that you could share me so that I could try to lauch the game with it on my side ?

[grand geode]

open Balatro.exe with specifically 7zip, drag the 1x and 2x folders into the resources\textures folder of the .exe

i cannot redistribute the modified exe to you

[charred helm]

Can you use Balamod and Steamodded at once?

[grand geode]

if anything breaks we will not be able to provide support

[shy ibex]

It will screw things up badly. I learned that the hard way.

[grand geode]

so try at your own risk

[charred helm]

So, one question, Balamod has a very neat mod called "Magic Hands", is there any alternative of this in Steamodded?

[umbral pilot]

these textures can be loaded dynamically as well, right?

I've got no idea how texturing works in this engine

[grand geode]

The .zip of the mod does not have a .lua file to do so

it only provides the assets

[umbral pilot]

gotcha

if there's interest I can look into a texture injector, but it seems like existing solutions are already pretty good

[grand geode]

Steamodded already provides a texture injector

ya

[cunning silo]

I really need to fix the new card sprite issue XD

And also the issue I had with message titles and stuff

Yeah I’ll get on that this evening

[bold fiber]

Thorn vines for wildcards, don't know why but never liked the smear

[tribal grove]

u should do blue red black like 3D? But Good idea

[bold fiber]

I had to do something because I was trying things out for superposition

[exotic pine]

is it taboo to copy-paste the achievements enabler in my mod???

[fathom grove]

what language are the shaders in? i'd like to make some more for my mod but i have NO clue what language this is.

[stone brook]

sorta? why force whoever is using your mod to have achievements enabled?

like theres just no reason to do it

[magic sandal]

GLSL

[fathom grove]

thank you!

[magic sandal]

Next time just post a part of the code into chatgpt

It could tell you the same thing

[formal wing]

Chatgpt bad

Project666 wants to build a profile from your chatgpt based on the code you look up becareful lol hes coming for you

[bold fiber]

YES! Superposition now wraps straights around, the balance has been restored.

[grand geode]

unsure how useful that'd be tbh

[bold fiber]

Not a lot, but helps trigger its own condition, and with that I might consider picking it up if shortcut or four fingers isn't around whereas normally it's just dead draw

[formal wing]

Hi so im setting up for modding and im using a guide listed in the modding thingy but i cannot find dwmapi.dll to set up my directory.

I have the other steps followed but i seem to be overlooking or missing something for this one

I feel like a genius for figuring out i missed a download oof

[rare shell]

chat is there a good field for initiatizing a variable to a random that would occur at the start of the run but not like during reloading an existing run

[round oar]

omg i got jokerless!!!!!!!!!!

i'm too good

[rare shell]

jonker in question

i just want to make the given hand random each time a run is initalized

[round oar]

wait wrong chat whoops

[rare shell]

(code works otherwise)

also please dont beat me to death for the joke my friend sent me the idea

[round oar]

uhhhhh look how to do list does it?

[rare shell]

the way to do list does it is have it be declared under set_ability

chat how do i localize a function again

local set_abilityref = Card.set_ability
function Card:set_ability(center, initial, delay_sprites)
    if self.ability.name == "Impractical Joker" then 
        stuff
    end
end``` this is the snippet i have so far but i feel like im missing something after the first if loop

oh i need to pass it to itself

🦆

well actuall hmmm

or it just doesnt work this way

[formal wing]

If i uninstall mods and load the profile they were used on will it still be okay? trying to find out if i can play with mods on my main profile

[rare shell]

it will crash on deck selection if you were last using a modded deck and you uninstall said modded deck

since it tries to bring you to your last played deck

[formal wing]

I just did profile 2 with unlock all fuggit

[jade lava]

are there any mods for extra game speed options?

[formal wing]

I do believe so one sec

Search mode speed in the modding section

[sleek granite]

modding this game seems fun

[formal wing]

Any one know if theres a mod to fix my horrid rng

[magic sandal]

Yeah the mod is called git gud

[formal wing]

I tried that

it didnt work. the gud never came...

[magic sandal]

[round ore]

You can download my hand size mod and set it to 52 and just royal flush your way to later levels

[magic sandal]

just get debug and spawn whatever joker you want

[round ore]

I was super excited when I thought I was going to break the jokers by debugging and spawning the copy the joker to the right and copy the left most joker as my two only jokers. No explosion or anything. Many sad times

Would have been nice if it acknowledged trying to go infinite

[sleek granite]

(balance to be determined lol)

[shy ibex]

Running my xMultiplier Jokers deck. I broke the Observatory tag (it doesn't work anymore), and each deck is at least level 80!

[bold fiber]

Maybe X1.2? Would be 2.5 before anything else and build up quickly with retriggers

[sleek granite]

there is the fact that it only scales on unugraded cards and its when those cards score. but i can tweak it ofc.

[cunning silo]

I like the idea, but isn’t this a little strong?

[sleek granite]

yea thats what i was figuring lol just finding a good number is gonna be weird

[cunning silo]

Perhaps make it rare instead of uncommon

[bold fiber]

Yeah but in a normal run one will always have more cards without enhancements than with, for me at least 1.4 is like getting X5 on every round

[bold fiber]

Uncommon seems fine to me, it's a "simple" joker after all

[sleek granite]

simple joker with incredible art wowieee

[dusky reef]

I'm so proud of this

Probably one of the hardest joker i wrote so far

[sleek granite]

its meant to be a sorta conceptual analogue to joker stencil, but giving up joker slots is more of a price to pay than giving up upgrading cards

(and the way the multiplier stacks on itself incorporates on that too)

[bold fiber]

I can see why, I can't imagine even trying to mess with the draw

[bold fiber]

Ok I see, it has a lower ceiling since you can't put red seals or mult enhacements on the cards

And those are what makes other jokers like bloodstone pop like they do

[sleek granite]

you could play mult cards before unupgraded cards, but red seal yes

(you just wouldnt get the proc on the mult card)

[shy ibex]

Got all the vouchers, including the ones from the Jelly mod. That's game for me! I need to sleep!

[dusky reef]

only took me about 1000 lines to make it work XD

[shy ibex]

That's right @sleek granite. Celebration time!

[iron onyx]

if i could make a suggestion: instead of (x1.4) when unenhanced cards are scored, make it (x3) if played card and hand do not contain enhanced cards

maybe even more, if you think x3 doesn't compensate for the inability to use steel or gold crds

[bold fiber]

That's x3 for free if you're playing high card. Their original idea seemed better because it forces you to find five cards without enhancements to get full effect.

There's more tension there

[runic kraken]

your card text can rival mine in length

[mossy cairn]

using ultimate random to win

[sleek granite]

pretty!

[gleaming talon]

I think we need some guideline if we wanna have the best chance of our mod working with each other

[solar lantern]

Hello, is there a way to unlock all challenges in a mod ?

[lean dune]

there's an unlock all button with no modding involved...

[grand geode]

just looked at the challenges code because i just got reminded

the unlocks are directly tied to challenges completed

so there's no way to unlock modded challenges without unlocking everything

[sly carbon]

i want to do something for all the custom decks that don't come with their own card back texture

if i were to make a small buttload of semi-generic playing card backs, would me having a thread with them here be used and appreciated?

[cunning silo]

I have custom deck backs in my API

[sly carbon]

that's not quite what i was meaning

[grand geode]

sure, prolly here or #🎨・fan-art

then you can reach out to the mods without custom back textures

[sly carbon]

i've actually made a few already, and it seems like my pixeling skills might be put to good use with it lol

[lean dune]

huh

[cunning silo]

Hold up

Something ain’t right here

[lean dune]

i guess true was supposed to be the default value here

[cosmic shell]

I think the intention is for it to be a nil check using the falsiness of nil, except that doesn't really work with bools

[lean dune]

doesn't work to differentiate nil and false

(eternal_compat == nil) and true or eternal_compat would do that

[grand geode]

so true

[runic kraken]

I need ideas for atleast 6 other "Cosmic" jokers for my mod

[wanton rapids]

should they be called constellations?

[sly carbon]

looks like they're all based on western zodiac star signs

[runic kraken]

I mean they are zodiac constellations, but the name for the theme is Cosmic

[sleek granite]

never mind figured it out hey check out this cool joker that i definitely figured out quickly and wasn't a huge pain

[digital compass]

Is there documentation for the game code yet? If not, I'm working on my own and I'd be happy to collaborate

[lean dune]

not directly, but it's kind of a difficult topic with not being allowed to redistribute source code and all that

[digital compass]

Right. Mine is pretty general and more of an overview of the structure

no code is copied outside of function/class prototypes

[void umbra]

Does modding disable steam achievements?

[lean dune]

by default, yes

but you can re-enable them

[void umbra]

I figured, thanks

[mossy cairn]

how to make texture pack of planets?

[finite hawk]

how silly would it be if wheel of fortune was a 3 card monty

instead of 1/4 >:3

[sleek granite]

it's not even 1/4 now it's 1/9001 i swear

[mossy cairn]

how to decompile balatro?
Balamod?

[wraith stream]

7zip

[barren solstice]

i think balamod has a command argument to decompile it

[wraith stream]

Balatro.exe is literally just the love2d executable and a zip file concatentated together

[barren solstice]

thats actually true, i didn't know that

[mossy cairn]

thanks!

[barren solstice]

i'm sorry if i'm the billionth person asking this, but does anyone have any resources on how to create a mod for this game? trying to reverse engineer other mods left me with nothing and an aching head

[runic kraken]

steamodded has example mods, but other than that its mostly trial and error
https://github.com/Steamopollys/Steamodded/tree/main/example_mods

[west pecan]

Take a "easy" one if you want too :
https://github.com/betmma/my_balatro_mods/blob/main/Betmma_Jokers/Betmma_Jokers.lua

[barren solstice]

i'll definitely go check those out

[grand geode]

smh didn't link mine which was the one everyone used for their mods lma

[runic kraken]

I think I finally finished the sprites for Hametsus natural disaster jokers

[snow lintel]

game keeps crashing whenever i click on "mods" :(

anyone able to help?

[grand geode]

Send the mod loader you're using, the crash message and your mod list

[snow lintel]

uh

i got no mods

and i dont know what you mean by loader

steamodded?

crash message

[dusky reef]

Do we not have tsunami?

[runic kraken]

I dont think so, but I can make a sprite when Hametsu wants to add a tsunami

[snow lintel]

anyone able to help me with this?

[dusky reef]

What have you done tho? Just injecting the mod loader and that’s it?

[sharp heron]

Hey guys, got a quesion. My kinda busted run is kinda crashed. should i restart the game or buy a new pc? Or just reduce the hand size to i dunno 150 instead of 250?

[west pecan]

@civic grail AWESOME

hum...still got a little issue working on it

[magic sandal]

Maybe don't have 120 jokers and 270 cards in hand

No wonder it's crashing

This is basically a balatro stress test

[sharp heron]

Excactly! that is my goal

[magic sandal]

So why you're telling us it's crashing

[west pecan]

  local arithmectic_vouchers = {
    v_arithmetic        =   {order = 3,     discovered = true, unlocked = true, available = true, cost = 10, name = "Arithmetic", pos = {x=0,y=0}, set = "Voucher", config = {}},
    v_calculous        =   {order = 4,     discovered = true, unlocked = true, available = true, cost = 10, name = "Calculus", pos = {x=0,y=1}, set = "Voucher", config = {}, requires = {'v_arithmetic'}},
  }

  -- Add sprites
  SMODS.Sprite:new("CalculatorVoucher", SMODS.findModByID("CalculatorVoucher").path, "v_arithmetic.png", 71, 95, "asset_atli")
      :register()
  addVouchersToPools(arithmectic_vouchers, "CalculatorVoucher")
end

function addVouchersToPools(voucherTable, atlas)
  -- Add Jokers to center
  for k, v in pairsByOrder(voucherTable) do
      v.key = k
      if atlas then v.atlas = atlas end
      v.order = table_length(G.P_CENTER_POOLS['Voucher']) + v.order
      G.P_CENTERS[k] = v
      table.insert(G.P_CENTER_POOLS['Voucher'], v)
  end

  table.sort(G.P_CENTER_POOLS["Voucher"], function(a, b)
      return a.order < b.order
  end)
end```

Because order 1 & 2 make this picture

[magic sandal]

If that's what your planning to do

[sharp heron]

So i just tested the challenge from the mod desinger, Game crashed at 200 Kings, 70 is possibly. So what is actually the cap xD

[supple cypress]

tbh i think you should have the entire thing be upside down, the face being upright looks weird
and the contrast is too high

[past tendon]

lmao. Might need a downside, even for a rare, I'll try with some normal runs

[magic sandal]

today on perfectly balanced mods

[snow lintel]

Yeah, just that. Sorry for disappearing

[rough horizon]

looks good to me

[past tendon]

average 8 blueprint 2 oops all 6s setup.

blueprint effect is bugged too, it creates way too many cards, kinda want to make it blueprint incompatible now. Even then, replacing your broken glass cards is still insane, I'll think of some downside

[magic sandal]

make them 1/2 to break

more likely to brake and 100% breakage with all 6s

[iron juniper]

How many glass cards do you want? Me: Yes

[snow lintel]

yo, anyone able to help me with this issue?

[runic kraken]

well, you could try to reset everything and try to inject the modloader again

[rare shell]

what modloader are you running and what mods are you running

[runic kraken]

he has 0 mods, atleast thats what he said before

[snow lintel]

^

Modloader

[rare shell]

and the modloader?

[snow lintel]

I assume steammodded is that?

[runic kraken]

does it look like this?

[past tendon]

I can think of several options:

• Only basic rank 13 cards are generated, no glass ones. So you're just trading your glass cards for potential late game 5oak consistency but I think that's pretty weak. You need a lot of these cards to achieve consistency, getting one or two cards will actually hurt you.
• Every time a glass card breaks, you get some sort of penalty. You obtain some powerful glass cards with the same rank but it comes at a cost.

tbf I'm not even sure it would be good in most normal runs. It has a lot of potential for endless consistency but getting there without blueprint would be difficult

[snow lintel]

Yep

Exactly so

[runic kraken]

thats steamodded then, yes

[snow lintel]

👍

What can I do then?

[runic kraken]

try to reinstall balatro and try installing the modloader again

[rare shell]

specifically try first with just deleting balatro.exe and verifying game files

[snow lintel]

ill try that

i dont see .exe but i assujme oyu just mean "balatro" right?

[lean dune]

frick no

[lean dune]

yeah "Balatro" is Balatro.exe, you just have file extensions turned off

[snow lintel]

Thanks

I don't know a lot about computers so sorry if I sound like some caveman

[hardy brook]

Welp

Here comes the mods on the Thunderstore

https://tenor.com/view/balatro-nope-gif-6426574609835139821

[cosmic shell]

you can download them manually without a launcher if you want to, plus my mods are still on my github too.

[hardy brook]

okay phew

I had bad experiences with Overwolf and thunderstore and places like that, so I don't trust them at all

[rare shell]

we should upload all of our mods over a hamachi server instead

[hardy brook]

Are you nuts? lol

[rare shell]

[lean dune]

lmao

[cunning silo]

I really should build a better debugger XD

like, a debug console you don't have to close and re-open every time you wanna debug

[umbral pilot]

And a heads up too that it's totally fine to use an adblock on the site (as long as it's ublock origin ) and r2modman, which we maintain to ensure people have options if they don't like OW / TMM.

r2modman is open source and totally ad free, I prefer it 10000x over TMM.

https://github.com/ebkr/r2modmanPlus/ MIT licensed, freely auditable if you have concerns

[hardy brook]

Please for the LOVE of JIMBO, don't try to convince me to use that site

[round ore]

this reads like an ad

so does the messages you sent below that

[cosmic shell]

they work as a dev for thunderstore

[round ore]

ah so it is an ad

[hardy brook]

For $19.99, you not only get 1 sketchy company, but TWO for the price of one!

Yeah no.

[round ore]

my suspicions of it being an ad was correct

lmao

[rare shell]

maybe be a little less rude to one of the literal devs

[hardy brook]

Anyways

Just gonna leave this here

I'm heading back to my threads

[lean dune]

oh gosh

[rare shell]

are you really doing this right now

[lean dune]

"one of the literal devs" most of us in here are devs in some way

[rare shell]

i mean devs of thunderstore

[round ore]

I hate thunderstore

[rare shell]

okay?

its just an option people are working on is all

[round ore]

and i'm saying it was an ad

[lean dune]

it's still advertising lmao

sharing that the option exists is one thing

that message up there is another

[rare shell]

you realize that r2modman support has been like

actively discussed and developed for weeks

homies out here trying to make it easier for users of the given modloader

[lean dune]

I'm not even saying it's a bad thing

[rare shell]

i think calling them linking to the homepage of the site an ad very disingenious

its the same as if someone linked balamod/steamodded/ or any other form of utility

[round ore]

anyways i'm gonna play balatro with like 50 joker mods on

[lean dune]

I don't care about the link at all

it's more the message itself

anyways no need to start a fight over this, it's fine to either care or not care about it

[round ore]

yeah no need for fights

[rare shell]

just saying to be more kind to developers of other things is all

[round ore]

time to see how fast balatro dies

[lean dune]

lol

[rare shell]

someone earlier tried loading over 300 jokers

[round ore]

that was probably me

[hardy brook]

oh yeah, no doubt about that then lol

[round ore]

is this enough jonklers yet guys?

[lean dune]

no

[hardy brook]

Nope

Wait until Ortalab comes out

[lean dune]

need at least 420

[hardy brook]

That's gonna double the initial amount lol

[round ore]

gee golly I gotta look for more

[rigid jewel]

dw I’m cooking some (kinda mid) jonklers

You’ll get like

5 more

xdd

[umbral pilot]

man I don't even know how to respond to all of that

[rare shell]

probably better not to

some people want walled gardens

¯_(ツ)_/¯

not much you can do

[round ore]

I don't

[umbral pilot]

me neither, we agree on that

[round ore]

nobody really does here

[lean dune]

yeah, nothing wrong with agreeing to disagree

[rare shell]

best thing you can do is ignore it all and keep contributing

[round ore]

we only wall this community off to true gamblers though 💯

[rare shell]

what if there were fluorescent cards?

[umbral pilot]

walled gardens explode communities on the regular, I don't want that. you need options.

[lean dune]

Oh no

[rare shell]

you know, glow-in-the-dark

[round ore]

they be cookin up a new edition

[rigid jewel]

Think so

[hardy brook]

How would they work effect wise?

[rare shell]

lord knows i will be able to sleep soundly when r2modman support comes out

that way i wont have to see "erm my antivirus is going off!" every day

[round ore]

2x chips

[rare shell]

I have no idea yet, but really wanted to think of new possible editions

like this

[lean dune]

hm... with common and uncommon suit jokers done, I'll need spectrum jokers as well I guess

[umbral pilot]

it's basically done, just waiting on a review. the pr is on the repo if you want to keep track of it

[rare shell]

youre doing gods work

[round ore]

what the hell is a spectrum joker

[lean dune]

a joker specific to the spectrum hand type

[rigid jewel]

What is r2modman?

[round ore]

this sounds broken as hell, in other news i'm gonna add this mod

[rare shell]

multi-game mod manager

mutli-game mod manager with a built in mod database on thunderstore.io i should clarify

a bit improved effects, other jokers

which jokers can I check with this?

[hardy brook]

One thing I know about editions is that it's some kind of shader

[round ore]

it also seems like you can pick legendary jokers for the first shop

[rare shell]

yeah yeah that doesn't scare me

as long as someone can show me how to add em

firch the glsl master

implementation of the edition itself scares me

I had some expirience with shaders before (in terraria and minecraft)

i would say check out jellymod but i dont think jellymod actually has an edition with a shader? just textures

[rare shell]

yeah I checked it earlier and there's no editions

oh right those would be enhancements

hmm

you could maybe try some sort of reverse engineering with the silverseal mod or something like that to see how seals are implemented, then populated, and try to frankenstein it with edition code instead

seals is also a different thing

I don't think it is what I need

[hardy brook]

you'd be the first person to figure that out

[round ore]

looking pretty good (added some more mods)

[rare shell]

half that page is garbage

(its the top half)

[round ore]

true

wrong

also definitely not a broken mod

[round ore]

something messed up the way the scoring works

with plasma

[rare shell]

so what exactly is the goal in looking for edition code? just where to start in general?

im trying to pour through the game code myself to see if i can offer more than just vague directions

im trying to even find where the shaders are paired to the editions tbh

I tried injecting into edition code some time ago but it failed miserably

uhhh

i see the declaration code in game.lua

or rather the config declaration

[round ore]

also you know it's good when I can't even continue a run without the game crashing

lol

[cosmic shell]

it looks like editions are done in Card:draw, with the function draw_shader after checking for the appropriate edition (set using Card:set_edition naturally).

negative seems slightly unique in that it also hijacks the texture rendering, for obvious reasons

[rare shell]

curse this being a card game

i forgot that draw has two meanings

[umbral pilot]

draw a card, draw a picture, draw your weapon

[round ore]

draw card or draw picture

aaaaa

we made the same tarnation joke

[umbral pilot]

is there a fourth draw though

[round ore]

no

[umbral pilot]

drawing and quartering....?

[round ore]

it's technically a drawing game for being a card game :)

[round ore]

yeah it crashed pretty quickly just went to 2 mods, a benefit at beginning mod and mika's mod

[bold fiber]

I'm trying to rework all the low tier jokers rather than adding new ones, what do you guys think Seance should do? I'm thinking of changing it from triggering on Straight Flushes to triggering on Four of a kind or 5oak, since spectral cards mostly help with those builds

[rare shell]

make it trigger on all the non-hidden high end hands

actually include hidden

but maybe like

flush house

always gotta be careful about being able to hold a spectral card

4oaK/5oaK seems trivial compared to straight flush and i think the point is that theres a hoop you have to go through

[molten lily]

My man Metherul is just excited to see the community benefit from the tooling we work on. If we'd want to advertise I'd contact this Discord servers mods first.

In many (almost all) of the communities TS has, modders dislike stuff like ads, pay walling or making free users experience worse (understandably). That's most likely the reason why TS devs (in this dc server me & metherul) are pretty fast to encourage people to use r2modman if they feel any negative feelings from ads or overwolf.

As this server doesn't allow self-promotion or advertising, I will not go on about how we want to pay for all of these development/server costs in the future, but if anyone has questions I'd be happy to answer them in DMs. (Or a thread on this message, if that's alright with the mods )

[rare shell]

best not to engage with it tbh

not worth the energy

[bold fiber]

Thing is if I'm already building for straight flushes, most spectral cards would make my build worse

So there's never a point to picking up seance

They don't even sell for that much money

[molten lily]

Yeah, it's not worth the energy to argue too much usually. But then again there's the silent majority that might benefit from the information/clarifications

[ocean torrent]

how do i change the main jokers as a mod

[lean dune]

depends on what you want to change

I'd start by looking for where the functionality you want to change lives on the game's code, and make your changes as necessary

[round ore]

it was a joke

[rotund sparrow]

An interesting idea for a deck would be that you can see only 5 different jokers throughout the entire run (legendary jokers unaffected) but they can appear any number of times

[lean dune]

these jokers being the first 5 ones you happen to see?

that seems like a huge hold r simulator tbh

[rotund sparrow]

each joker would count as the same rarity so same chance i guess

so you would have to work with what you get xd

but things like showman obviously would be excluded lol

[lean dune]

the meta would just be to reset until you get some good uncommon/rare synergies

[bold fiber]

Sounds more like a challenge run than a deck

[lean dune]

since there's not gonna be anything new to see after ante 1, that means a lot of resetting

[bold fiber]

Would be fun if you could only find food jokers, so you need to keep buying popcorn, ice cream, ramen to keep your chips up

[ocean torrent]

i just wanna change the jokers (descryption/ abilities)

[west pecan]

Like a joker who take the debuff of this card ? And keep it
Interesting 🤔

Gluttony Joker 🤣

[bold fiber]

I meant for the deck where you can only find the same 5 jokers through the whole run. Imo they'd have to be the food jokers to make it both viable and fun.

That someone suggested higher up

[bold fiber]

If you just want to get started, open the Balatro.exe with 7zip, joker abilities are in card.lua, joker descriptions are in localization > en-us.lua

[lean dune]

I mean that's one way to get around making it a reset fest, just fix the joker pool

[ocean torrent]

i know where it is and how to change it i just wanna know how to overide the code using a mod

[strong falcon]

Does anyone know where the text gets changed for Mult Cards?

I wanna give mult to base cards as well and it's applying it to the score, but it's not showing up in the card description at all

[past tendon]

So it looks like there's no context.hand_drawn 🤔 . context.first_hand_drawn is a thing (used by certificate for example) but there's nothing for subsequent hands, and this is something I'd need for a joker. Not sure how difficult creating a new context would be

maybe I should check how boss blinds work since bosses like cerulean bell do stuff each time cards are drawn

[iron onyx]

just a question before i get too serious: is the indestructible nature of an eternal joker hard-coded, or can it be overridden by a mod's coding?
i'm asking because i'm thinking about a mod concept involving some joker card art i made awhile back: fused jokers.

[umbral pilot]

with love2d anything is possible

[iron onyx]

that's what i thought; i just wanted to be sure it was possible in the game's engine before i bothered trying

so basically, having two specific jokers -- usually ones with very similar triggers, effects, or aesthetics -- would combine them into a new joker. naturally, this would technically involve them being destroyed, even if they were eternal; though i would make the resulting fusion eternal if either material was.

[umbral pilot]

I want to clarify - anything is technically possible, but the hard part is making sure it's plausable lol

[cunning silo]

Well, it's finally time to show you guys the project me and @rare shell have been working on: Codex Arcanum!!!
Codex Arcanum adds a new type of consumable card: Alchemical Cards.
During a blind, use these cards to gain temporary hands and discards, get more cards, or even lower the blind itself!
There will be 7 alchemical cards at first, but I would love to hear your opinions and ideas for more cards/jokers/anything!

Example of the Terra alchemical: https://gyazo.com/4916359a7deba606805a2e5725850ae1.mp4

[azure mulch]

omgomgomg

THATSG SO COOL

[cunning silo]

To further discuss the mod, we can talk about it at #1221916334372290620

[azure mulch]

WHAT

ooooooo

[ocean torrent]

i love this so much omg

trojan script?

[round ore]

it always says that

[ocean torrent]

sketchy

[round ore]

steammodded is not liked by windows defender

[umbral pilot]

try the powershell injector

[round ore]

big microsoft hates steammodded

[lean dune]

that already is the powershell injector

[umbral pilot]

the non-compiled one

if it still exists

I might be imagining things lmao

[lean dune]

or just use lovely

[ocean torrent]

the injector works

but windows is spamming me

[cunning silo]

Forgot to show it, This is how the main menu looks rn

(alchemical cards don't have the count thingy for now)

[round ore]

are all alchemical cards gonna effect blinds?

or no

[dawn salmon]

Does Steamodded disable achievements or anything?

[timid nexus]

yes

[dawn salmon]

Ah, shit

[round ore]

theres a mod you can have to enable them though

if you just wanna use a texture or something

[iron onyx]

is there any documentation for mod hooks that i'm just missing?

[umbral pilot]

if you can't find what you need then you'll likely need to write a lovely patch

what are you missing?

[iron onyx]

oh, i was just looking for how to find the player's current jokers; but i think studying someone else's code has helped me find it

for i = 1, #G.jokers.cards do
this would be the first line for something that looks through that, right?

[cunning silo]

Check out how blueprint does it

[knotty fable]

so fibanachi is an italian mathatician and there is a card named after him......can we have davinchi and gallaleo

[woven rock]

fibonacci* da vinci* galileo*

[lean dune]

Da vinci*

[round ore]

fun fact: this is what your deck looks like before the deck sprite is placed above it

buncha cards

[exotic shadow]

oh yeah I kinda did this earlier by accident

well I just rendered the card on top of the deck again

[round ore]

the reason why it's like that I suspect is so the deck back being raised up from having a lot of cards works

and it getting lowered down when you draw cards

[round ore]

Could be a deck of seeing the next card you'd draw

[tepid sentinel]

somebody knows what this "r" in the config refers to?

{n=G.UIT.R, config={align = "cm", minw = 2.8, minh = 1, r = 0,15, colour = G.C.PURPLE, hover = true, shadow = true}}

[hardy brook]

If you remember the EXTREME deck welp...

[hollow zinc]

hmm no thats not quite right

(perkeo is now drag and droppable, the magician tarot is now where the jokers should be, and there are a LOT of them)

for what it is worth the cards still work

[hardy brook]

Impossible Deck

[round ore]

new deck idea, swap consumable and joker slots

[tepid sentinel]

but thats the R for row from the UIT i mean, the lowercase r inside the config table

or is it related?

[exotic shadow]

uh not sure

seems to be some extra stuff for rendering

possible if its selectable (?)

[tepid sentinel]

@exotic shadow like clickable you mean?

[dusky reef]

Reworked wording a little bit

I am so proud of making this one happen

[tepid sentinel]

how long did it take you to do it?

[exotic shadow]

idk

[dusky reef]

a full day, with like 1000 lines of code LOL

[exotic shadow]

I'm trying to guess what it does reading code

why not try it and see

[tepid sentinel]

i tried, i changed it from 0.1 to 1 and i didnt see literally anything change, idk at first i thought it was maybe the roundness of the corners

but doesnt seem like it

reading the code for the UI of this game melts my eyes

[wild thunder]

try setting it to 1000 and see what happens

and if that looks normal try setting it to -1000 or 0

[tepid sentinel]

i wish icould do that xD

[exotic shadow]

try changing it to 0

I think its just checked as a bool

[tepid sentinel]

ill change it to 1000 first

1 sec

literally nothing, ill change it to -10 now

the purple button is mine to avoid confussion

[wild thunder]

try maybe 0

[tepid sentinel]

i set it to -10, still nothing

now 0, let see

nothing

idk man

[iron juniper]

I see nothing wrong here

Literally just the vanilla game

[iron onyx]

so, does anyone here know which card is being added when a joker is bought via context.adding_to_deck? and is it that or context.added_to_deck?

trying to figure out how to make it check which joker was just bought, for the specific purpose of seeing if you have two jokers that can fuse; as per my previous idea.

[knotty fable]

I'm sorry I'm not Italian

[woven rock]

me neither

[gleaming talon]

dayum that's so cool

[iron onyx]

also, do custom functions need any fancy headers?

really want to put the "fuse cards" code into its own function

[lean dune]

nope, just make sure its name isn't used anywhere else already, everything is global by default in lua

[dusky reef]

you better make the function signature unique in case anyone else want to "fuse cards" and calls their function "fuse_card"

otherwise no

[lean dune]

I think the context you mean is context.playing_card_added, which is what hologram uses and is specific to playing cards

[iron onyx]

ah; so what context would i be looking for to check what's being purchased?

[lean dune]

there is however also an unused context.buying_card, which triggers when a joker is bought (or voucher redeemed, I'm not sure if it activates on buffoon packs and judgement/wraith/soul though)

the card being bought would simply be referenced as context.card

seems like judgement and similar cards don't trigger this, but you could surely add it

oh shit i broke straights again

[round ore]

gays be like

[lean dune]

that one was infuriating

a table has no length, but tables and arrays are actually the same thing, so it looked all fine

that's what I get for not testing ig

[rare shell]

I tried using buying card but it didn't seem to trigger for me

[near tulip]

does anyone know how the shop is seeded?

[bold fiber]

The idea is that any of the "Destroy a random joker" effects would now target this one instead, ceremonial dagger too. I want to make it so it shows "Gored!" when destroyed.

[west pecan]

interresting !

If I use print on my LUA script (steammoded) where do I see it on game ?

[lean dune]

you don't

[west pecan]

interresting...so, how can I know what context is inside ?

[lean dune]

there's sendDebugMessage though, which you can read out with the debug window included in the steamodded code

for context, you can use something like vscode global search to see where the function gets called from and what's passed to it

[west pecan]

How activate it please ?

[lean dune]

it's a python script called tk_debug_window.py

[west pecan]

Yeah, that's what I did, but, it's looks like a lot of information is stocked in it, I wanted to print/debugmessage in order to watch array

[lean dune]

call sendDebugMessage in your code, it will show up in the debug window when it's run

it's not the most practical but best we have for the moment, you'll just need to scroll to the bottom

[iron onyx]

wait, can i not pass the "self" value into a custom function?

[lean dune]

you can - but you're likely getting notation mixed up

obj:func(args) is syntactic sugar for obj.func(self, args)

if you aren't using colon notation, you must specify self as the first argument

but you must not if using colon notation

[west pecan]

I see..it's a LOT of lines...

I guess, first, I've to comment all sendDebugMessage in all mod I use xD

or make a clean folder and only mine in it

[lean dune]

-- for overriding
local original = obj.func
function obj:func(args)
  original(self, args)
  -- other code
end

[normal onyx]

which mod loader mod is better?

[dense dock]

afaik steammoded has more mods but they both do different things

[normal onyx]

hmm

[dense dock]

im pretty sure its just because steamoded has been around longer but im pretty new to this stuff so idrk

[iron onyx]

https://hastebin.com/share/jajisaseya.lua this is the fusion function i made, and the part of my calculatejoker code that should be checking if you buy smiley or scary face, and run the code that combines the jokers into j_creepy, or "Creepy Face"

i hope it's obvious that i have zero experience in Love2D and was hoping that my knowledge of languages like Java and C# could translate decently

[tawdry glade]

question dose anyone have a idea witch mod this is ?

[hardy brook]

Jellymod

[west pecan]

https://github.com/jamesthejellyfish/JellyMod?tab=readme-ov-file#features

im mostly looking for something that i can turn on/off mods at any time

[hardy brook]

Why is my joker not giving xmult

[tawdry glade]

legend

[dense dock]

i havent tried lovely, but i dont think thats a thing yet

[normal onyx]

hmm

[round ore]

combo of the century

easy flush 5 machine

oh and I just got hack

so now every card retriggers

[dense dock]

esp if u get it early so u can rack up planet cards

isnt base flush 5 like 100x500 or smthn?

[round ore]

I got it quite late

so my flush five is only level 2

I just got reverse high priestess into flush five so now it's level 3

I lost still sadly

[dense dock]

didnt get ante 8?

or did u go endless

[round ore]

I did not get to ante 8

[dense dock]

damn flush 5 gives less then i remember

[round ore]

don't worry i'm boutta go wee joker double vision mode

[ocean torrent]

this is so cursed

[round ore]

Update:

[dense dock]

what does wee joker do again?

[iron onyx]

+8 chips permanently when a 2 is scored

and double vision makes everything 2's

[round ore]

and with double vision wee joker be smokin that stuff

[dense dock]

thats busted lol

[round ore]

I sold even steven for pessimist but he only gave me 1 negative for 2 hands

big bruh moment

[normal onyx]

how to download stuff

do i download all the files?

[round ore]

depends on the stuff you want

[normal onyx]

oh, just a steamodded

in general

[dense dock]

the .lua is the mods

all of those are steammoded mods

not steammoded if thats what ur trying to download

[normal onyx]

argh

[normal onyx]

do i download these?

[dense dock]

download the steammoded_injector than drag and drop the baltro .exe onto it

not the ps one

[normal onyx]

hmm

ok

[near tulip]

is the seed finder bugged for anyone else atm? im currently having to edit the code to get it to move on to the next error

[iron onyx]

oh my god i figured it out

the dissolve function is a colon function

[normal onyx]

downloaded but my pc finds the file as a virus so i cant put balatro in it

💀

[dense dock]

gotta let it through antivirus

[iron onyx]

okay so now the cards destroy themselves properly

[dense dock]

or turn antivirus off

[normal onyx]

mhm

tried to turn off the windows defender and it didnt work

[dense dock]

hm i dont remember how i did it

[normal onyx]

not to say anything but its quite weird to know that the injector has a trojan

[dense dock]

yea but im guessing if it had any malicious software than someone woulda said somehting

[round ore]

it's only malicious thing is stealing all of your time with mods from the fun

[dense dock]

^ why does everyone call this guy jimbo

[round ore]

because that's his name

[normal onyx]

[he is secretly gay]

[dense dock]

doesnt it just say joker on the card

[round ore]

yes but

[normal onyx]

bruh, the mod loader? i guess didnt work

[dense dock]

huh?

[normal onyx]

mhm

[iron juniper]

Y'all have made some cool frickin mods so far

[normal onyx]

the injector pretty much didnt work for me

[round ore]

golden jimbo

[iron juniper]

Midas got to Jimbo first

[normal onyx]

.w.

[round ore]

seems legit

[normal onyx]

i might be stupid

[iron juniper]

Steamodded?

[normal onyx]

yup

[round ore]

can't afford it tho

[dense dock]

hm idk thats what i did

[iron juniper]

I'd probably verify and start with a fresh Balatro exe, then drag Balatro exe onto Steamodded exe

[normal onyx]

😵

[iron juniper]

Antivirus might panic a bit

[iron onyx]

huh.

so instead of giving me the fused joker i want it to give me

[normal onyx]

nah, everything is turned off

[haughty hinge]

imagine you right click on an item and you see what mod it is from :)

[iron onyx]

balatro is giving me three random jokers

when i attempt to combine smiley face with scary face

[round ore]

would love that

[normal onyx]

i dont see any changes in files too

[round ore]

you have to have a folder called "Mods"

[iron juniper]

Try launching and closing the game

[normal onyx]

did

[round ore]

make a folder in roaming for balatro called "Mods"

then check

[iron juniper]

Give me a sec, I'll make sure I'm not being dumb myself here

[normal onyx]

tried and it didnt do anything

[dense dock]

do you have to run the injector_ps one?

[normal onyx]

ill try

[dense dock]

then drag and drop it onto

i dont remember

[iron juniper]

I used steamodded_injector.exe and it works fine for me

[round ore]

same

[iron juniper]

Dragging Balatro.exe onto steamodded_injector.exe

[round ore]

although my antivirus does try to delete steammodded like every week

[tacit mountain]

I recommend using Lovely

[iron juniper]

Antivirus just wants a lil snackrifice as a treat 🗡️

[normal onyx]

uhm

where exactly is balatro.exe

[round ore]

truth

[dense dock]

should be able to open steam then do the thing to open game files

[normal onyx]

maybe i have a wrong balatro file or sum

[iron onyx]

okay, so good news

card fusion works

[round ore]

bad news coding nightmare?

[iron onyx]

deletes the cards, even if eternal and gives you the proper card

bad news, uh...

[iron juniper]

Right click on Balatro in Steam: Manage -> Browse Local Files

[iron onyx]

yeah.

it gives three of them for some reason, when i only want it to give one

probably because i need to throw a return at some point

and the localization copied over from scholar doesn't work like i was hoping it would

[iron juniper]

@normal onyx This is the link with instructions to install Steamodded with Lovely https://discord.com/channels/1116389027176787968/1217867725532041369

[dense dock]

dont steammoded mods work with lovely?

[normal onyx]

got it

somehow

[tranquil lintel]

Anyone know which sprites are accessed for the card face ui

is it 1x or 2x

[iron onyx]

THERE we go

the card is now properly added, now that i've checked that the bought card isn't dissolving

now i've just got to get the localization working and i'm in business

[west pecan]

Hard to get here...but I'm working with it, thanks again ❤️

[tacit mountain]

Kinda, it's more Steamodded that works with Lovely than the mods themself

Lovely load Steamodded and Steamodded handle the mods

[modern kiln]

@iron onyx what are you working on, I'm super curious...

[iron onyx]

a "joker fusion" idea i've had since before i knew this game could be modded

here's one of them

the edition and eternal preservation code isn't working rn but

oh well

the idea is, obtaining a certain pair of jokers will automatically combine them, compositing both their effects into a single card

and once it's fully done, it will retain the eternal property and the highest-tier edition

[dense dock]

yea i was just gonna ask if ur mod is in #1209506514763522108 so i could check it out

seems pretty cool

[simple venture]

do odd todd and even steven together

would be cool

[iron onyx]

it's something i'm thinking of, yes

[simple venture]

is it in early development or can i download it

[iron onyx]

it's still in beta, unfortunately

[modern kiln]

Didn't Mika or Jelly make a Straight Nate? You could probably use that sprite if you wanted

[simple venture]

gg very good idea though

[iron onyx]

i need to figure out how to make the game look at the editions of both material cards

as well as the eternal status of either

because i want it to retain eternal status if one of the cards used was

[dense dock]

yea that sounds tricky

[iron onyx]

as well as editions in the order:

• negative
• polychrome
• holographic
• foil

if both have an edition, the higher tier one is chosen

or, should be

[simple venture]

wait so is there gonna be a way to fuse them or are they just gonna spawn

[west pecan]

https://github.com/lusciousdev/LushMod/blob/main/LushMod.lua#L504

[iron onyx]

you fuse them by buying both of the fusion's materials in the smae run

[west pecan]

if that can help for eternal ?

[iron onyx]

i already have lushutil

[simple venture]

oohhh thats cool

thats alotttt of work tho too

[hardy brook]

So... I got two problems

[iron onyx]

so for creepy face, you buy both smiley face and scary face

[simple venture]

oo yh makes sense

[hardy brook]

1. Don't know how to give xmult to my joker
2. Don't know how I'm gonna get the "If Glass Card, then destroy after score"

[modern kiln]

@iron onyx any reason you can't just delete both and run through an algorithm to create the new one from the stored stats of the other two?

[iron onyx]

that's what i've already gotten done

[hardy brook]

Who put the 👀 emote?

[iron onyx]

buying them both deletes both, and spawns the fusion

and the fusion works as it's supposed to

now it's just passing on the best edition from both cards and eternal statuses

which i do have code for

but i guess it's not working?

oh wait

that's the problem

the eternal code wouldn't run if neither material had an edition

now that's fixed

[hardy brook]

So yeah, keep trying to figure out AT LEAST THE XMULT but nope

[west pecan]

https://tenor.com/mLJg21UFz8L.gif

[hardy brook]

every attempt has no xmult

[modern kiln]

@hardy brook did you add anything to game.lua or just in the file you screenshotted?

[hardy brook]

Nothing in game.lua is changed

[modern kiln]

ok that might be part of our problem

just a sec, lemme grab a screenshot of the area I think might help

[hardy brook]

I don't want to change anything in game.lua though

I just wanna add xmult to a card

lol

[iron onyx]

success!

[strong swift]

this is really underwhelming for a rare tbh

[iron onyx]

i mean, i'll change the rarity later; kinda stole that from another mod anyway

[strong swift]

yeah fair

[iron onyx]

might even make it a custom "fusion" rarity (if possible)

bc you're not supposed to get them normally

[sleek granite]

are custom rarities possible? :o

[strong swift]

i think only with balamod

[iron onyx]

oh, i see

[strong swift]

mathisfun_ got exotic rarity working

[modern kiln]

are you using this syntax in your code, where it says extra = {Xmult = 3}

[sleek granite]

are custom rarities possible with hacky code that will probably cause other mods to break? :P

(compatibility was never an option)

[modern kiln]

I think you'd have to write new shader code to get a similar effect to the others

[sleek granite]

rarities, not editions

[modern kiln]

oh my b, I think custom rarities are defintely possible with hacky code

[sleek granite]

i had an idea for Junk Jokers that would be unsellable and take up a slot but have some condition that destroys them; but idk how feasible that is haha

[hardy brook]

Tried it once and doesn't load but i'll try again

[blissful basin]

someone was posting about adding a new rarity tier, mythic. but i have no clue which chat that was now

[umbral pilot]

I'm curious - how are shaders installed / added?

[sleek granite]

i mean really isnt all the code hacky and we just need to all use the same hacky code for compatibility anyway

[umbral pilot]

I feel like that's the thesis of all comp sci lmao

shit's broken, oh well

et al

[sleek granite]

haha, true. i wonder if i could tackle making an api that does it. might be a bit Much for my Third Thing i do tho lol

[cosmic shell]

the game just loads them all in at start up and puts them in a global object that's referenced where it's appropriate, should be trivial just to inject some additional code to add extra shaders.

[sleek granite]

oh, but rarities are held as numbers huh. that might be the hardest part...

[modern kiln]

this is a question for @tacit mountain or Balamod's creator I think - I can figure out what's going on in the code itself after awhile but don't actually know what steammod or Balamod does to inject their lua code into the src, and if that's different for lua than .fs files

[modern kiln]

how might one access that global object for parsing...

[cosmic shell]

it's just G.SHADERS, i guess you could also add shaders on demand with something like G.SHADERS["shader_ref"] = love.graphics.newShader(path_or_filedata)

[tacit mountain]

That's it yeah

Steamodded don't provide anything for shaders, no idea for Balamod

[cinder sage]

what does loc_parse_string() do?

[dusky reef]

oh btw is the injector updated to reflect recent commits?

[cinder sage]

i was going through the steamodded source but i can't find the definition

[tacit mountain]

You mean last ones even the ones not in a release tag ?

[dusky reef]

i remember there was this pull request about blueprint_compat not loaded, was that covered now?

[cosmic shell]

it parses a localization string, probably turning it into some UI representation for rendering.

[dusky reef]

oh i was just wondering if it will impact users, if they choose to use stuff like .exe to inject

[tacit mountain]

I'm working on r2mm and nativefs compatibility, I will do a new release with all new stuff when it's ready

[dusky reef]

because if stuff like that were fixed only on github then user still won't be able to use it right

[dusky reef]

awesome!!!!

[tacit mountain]

But injectors use bundle code, and the PS one use a specified tag

So they do not reflect last updates

[dusky reef]

yeah figured... i think i will stick with the latest release for now

just so that it isn't only working on my machine and a few others... Thanks a lot for all the update and support

[umbral pilot]

I was expecting shaders to be handled natively. nice, should be easy to inject into.

[tranquil lintel]

speaking of shaders anyone know how to get a png image of the shaders?

[modern kiln]

whatchu got in mind

[umbral pilot]

a shader preload patch if it's even required

so the shaders are present in the table as early as possible

but it doesn't seem super necessary

[fickle elbow]

I finished adding The Drain Blind & The Bleach to my mod

[dense dock]

you got a version out or is it still in development

this looks cool and id love to try it out

[fickle elbow]

yea its called Ink And Color Suits you can find it in modding or click on this link https://github.com/RattlingSnow353/InkAndColor

[normal onyx]

any mod recommendations?

[grand geode]

Instead of copying the whole thing into your mod you could just point people to download BlindCollectionPatch yk

[grand geode]

anyways gonna figure out some UI stuff then I might add a Blind API to Steamodded???

[faint coyote]

hey i'm new to this, is there a template i might use as a starting point for modding custom jokers?

[iron juniper]

When you run out of cards to roll for

[fickle elbow]

real

[modern kiln]

yes I just figured this out today! For Steammod (not familiar with Balamod yet) you can use the jokerapi.lua file in the example mods folder of Steammod

an example of me getting started (also pixel art absolutely belongs to @dusky reef for his awesome mod in progress High Card: https://github.com/Ken-Shi/Balatro_HighCardMod/)

[iron juniper]

Finally rolled Showman, took a while

[tacit mountain]

https://github.com/Steamopollys/Steamodded/releases/tag/0.8.1

(I patched the lovely file, nativefs ref was not meant to be on the repo)

[modern kiln]

This is awesome thank you for everything - quick q, are there examples anywhere (or somewhere you can point to) where I can see the Joker utils implemented? It doesn't seem like JokerAPI.lua was updated, but I can't tell for sure

[tacit mountain]

You mean like some examples ?

[modern kiln]

ya basically

I'm fine without! Just not sure if they're things I need/want to make use of

[tacit mountain]

I need to create new one along side some doc

I'm late on this part

[dusky reef]

What does R2MM support mean for us? I know R2MM when playing ROR2 but not sure how to get started for balatro modding on there

[tacit mountain]

Just a change in thew way you are manipulating love.filesystem (if you were)

[dusky reef]

I was

[tacit mountain]

https://canary.discord.com/channels/1116389027176787968/1209564621644505158

It's very simple to update

[modern kiln]

totally fine we appreciate all the other crazy stuff you do

[dusky reef]

I was doing cardback injection via love.filesystem

#1219099261883519046 message

[tacit mountain]

Replace love.filesystem by NFS and it's done lol

[bold fiber]

How does one find the old textures for the jokers? I want to restore 8 Ball to its former glory of creating tarot cards

And make it purple too

[quasi crest]

idea: mod with 1238971238912 planets (real)

[wild thunder]

the way you get so many is by counting flushes of less than 5 cards and straights of less than 5 cards, and making every combination a different hand

[sleek granite]

nah they all just level four of a kind

[quasi crest]

i had an idea for Suit Pair - essentially a two card flush (5x2???)

[sleek granite]

me when Flush Two

[quasi crest]

can i dump more ideas here or Where do i put them (im new to this discord)

[modern kiln]

I'm new too but I think a new thread for mod idea dumping/riffing isn't a bad idea

a channel could work too but I imagine that requires an Admin decision

[sleek granite]

theres the mod suggestions forum in #1209506514763522108

[rare shell]

oh we're so back

[rigid jewel]

More jonkler shenanigans

This is making me want a challenge where you get 5 negative eternal copies of this joker rigged to all 5 final boss blinds

[iron onyx]

turns out i had the perfect seed to test whether or not my fused jokers edition retention works!

the wrathful joker had poly, the arrowhead had nothing.

[haughty hinge]

I really wanna make Balatro: Uno edition but I can only supply ideas nothing else

[exotic pine]

anyone know what state G.GAME.PACK_INTERRUPT is?

trying to bind a key to the "next round" button in the shop.. trying to figure out what state to change to properly exit the shop

what is e arg?

[sleek granite]

just the name of the argument. context would tell more on what data type it is supposed to be or how it is used.

[mortal rapids]

mime too?

[iron onyx]

attempted to trim down my "fusion check" code, so i'm not typing the same things over and over

i feel like i'm doing something wrong, but i don't know exactly what.

THERE we go

just had to get rid of the keys

[exotic pine]

trying to call this function, i've been seeing people passing in things like arg_756_0 or something of the sort and maybe that's what I'll need, but haven't found any sort of guidance on what these args are

don't think it would be appropriate to create my own argument here, i'm sure it's looking for some kind of information in the game

[rare shell]

b-balatro crafting?

[iron onyx]

JOKER FUSION

yeah, i gave it the legendary rarity

[rare shell]

any specific trigger right now to fuse them?

[iron onyx]

just buying the two materials in any run

[rare shell]

or is it just "buy 2 of the materials, they combine"

[iron onyx]

yep

[rare shell]

mkay

[iron onyx]

in beta RN

[rare shell]

spiffy

[iron onyx]

but ye

there is an oddity i've noticed

the custom cards wiggle at the end of a round as if they're doing something, even if they don't

[bold fiber]

Maybe you could call the fused jokers "Lenticular" like those stickers that show 2 pictures when you move them side to side

[modern kiln]

congrats on the milestone! did you try setting the new card's config to include "nopulse=true"

[iron onyx]

i would make a custom rarity if i knew how to add custom rarities in steamodded (i... don't feel like porting my entire mod over to another loader just for that.)

[iron onyx]

i did not, thank you!

[subtle dust]

hi is there any way to recover a save that bricked because of a quit out during a card transformation e.g. death

[sleek granite]

variable names have no sway on how a variable works; you'd need to look at what the function does with the variable to know what data type (number? string? Joker?) it expects it to be, or look at what data type other code gives it (im not familiar with the function in question personally)

[rare shell]

Is it possible to add custom ranked cards/how to do so?

[round oar]

guys i've been modding in balamod and want to move one of my mods over to steammodded, where the hell do i start?

[runic kraken]

so can somebody give me a crash course on what is needed to publish your mod on thunderstore?

[gleaming talon]

Steamodded got an update ?

[lean dune]

yep

[gleaming talon]

what changed ?

[lean dune]

r2mm support, qol and a couple of features for the joker API as well as a loading priority system notably

Full changelog here

[gleaming talon]

what's r2mm ?

[rare shell]

R2modman

It's a mod manager

[gleaming talon]

wow that's worth the alias

you save 4letters

[grizzled sentinel]

no?

[rare shell]

I mean if you want to be pedantic we can just call it the Risk of Rain 2 Mod Manager instead

But I think r2mm is fine tbh

https://tenor.com/view/captain-laserhawk-bullfrog-orange-juice-gif-3089809304217552557

[gleaming talon]

tf is is Risk of Rain mod manager doing here

[runic kraken]

do we have to edit our mods for them to work with r2mm? or do you have to install them manually anyway?

[rare shell]

It started as a risk of rain 2 mod launcher and has been expanded to cover a bunch of other games

Another mod distribution platform like nexus mods or workshop

[gleaming talon]

Ohhhh okay

tho still

why keep the name
