Something like "if self.back == Back(G.P_CENTERS.b_anaglyph) then" should work, using the anaglyph deck as an example, right? or do I have the variable or formatting wrong?
lean dune
interesting
iron onyx
i've compensated for it by having the black deck secretly keep its innate -1 hand debuff
so it goes from 2 to 3 instead of from 3 to 4
but it is kinda funny to see

Something like "if self.back == Back(G.P_CENTERS.b_anaglyph) then" should work, ...
I think card.lua's self.back is probably the correct variable but I just need to figure out how its defined for each deck, Back(G.P_CENTERS.b_anaglyph) might be the wrong format but i'm not sure where to check for the right one.

Dumb answer

How do I make cards have specific numbers in a deck?
For example: all cards are aces
tepid sentinel

you would need to define every card in the deck

yes

that all cards are considered aces?

I had an idea for a Joker/Voucher and I'd like to hear how feasible it is with our current understanding of Steamodded/Feder
TL;DR, it would allow you to, instead of using a Tarot/Spectral/Planet from any given Booster Pack, 'Pocket' it instead, adding it to your consumable slots
But I don't know about adding the alternative button to do so
I also had the thought that the (upgraded) voucher might let you pocket actual playing cards from standard boosters and sell them
dapper helm
adding it to consumable slots has already been figured out so the button is the only part that could be weird
iron onyx
i hope that someday i'll be able to add the button to my "joker fusions" mod
allowing you to manually fuse them, under the sell option

Yo, quick question, do the latest Steamodded versions support Lua modules? (ie. using require "myModModule.lua" )
cedar patio
hi, I was wondering, does having mods enabled affect achievements and unlocks?
dapper helm
steamodded turns off achievements but they can be turned back on, unlocks progress as normal and don't revert when mods are removed
cedar patio
hmm ok
I was looking to start with some simple ones, first one would probably be faster stakes unlocks
but maybe it would be better to just do that with a save editor
dapper helm
why?
cedar patio
I have gold stake on one deck but the rest are around red
and it just takes a while to get to the higher stakes across all decks
I could just put in the time but I was wondering if I want to just jump forward a little bit and skip some of the easier stakes
dapper helm
i like how faster stakes does it so i do recommend that if you're not struggling at all in lower stakes, i didn't use it but they were really as easy as i thought
cedar patio
yeah so would you reccomend turning it on, getting to gold on one more stake and then turning it off again?
I'd like to try divvy's preview too but not if it will block the last few unlocks and achievements I need
cedar patio
oh yeah I forgot about that one
dapper helm
having steamodded installed at all disables achievements even without mods on pretty sure
white scarab
Yo, quick question, do the latest Steamodded versions support Lua modules? (ie. ...
Try out Lovely for that
You can probably do that along with Steamodded to get module loading working
cedar patio
right so it might be worth not trying them until I have the next few unlocks
I just need canio to appear to get the collection achievement and I don't want it not unlocking if I have mods on when it appears
dapper helm
nah unlocks are normal
cedar patio
but then I wonder once I get it could I turn on achievements but then uninstall them all and steammodded before doing the last gold stake for example
cedar patio
nah unlocks are normal
but the achievement might not trigger?
dapper helm
it will if you have achievement enabler
cedar patio
oh I thought you said having steammodded installed overrides it
oh well I could try them out sooner then I suppose!
dapper helm
nono sorry miscommunication
rare shell
I accidentally gave myself the joker unlock for finishing a game in 12 or less rounds
vestal crag
but the achievement might not trigger?
You can get the achievement to trigger later if you ever verify your game files to update/uninstall steamodded.
cedar patio
verify through steam?
dapper helm
i did all my unlocks and stakes legit 👍 except i think some of my stickers are messed up so i ignore them entirely
cedar patio
well divvy's preview looks really cool and useful, I'd like to have it on while I try for the stakes
and of course the faster unlocks to get there a bit quicker
vestal crag
verify through steam?
If you right click on a game in steam, and go to properties, you can find an option to Verify the Integrity of Game Files.
(Great for removing stuff that isn't vanilla)
cedar patio
right cool, didn't know that would retrigger achievements

Okay, Dagonet is probably the most busted Joker that isn't Perkeo with the ghost deck.
tardy sierra
Okay, what if there was a Rare/Legendary Joker that allowed you to put Booster Pack Tarot/Celestial/Spectral cards into your consumable slots?
vestal crag
Dunno.
You can't normally get black hole in the consumable area, so I haven't a clue whether it works.
sleek granite
it probably doesn't
vestal crag
I think it's technically a spectral.
Hm.
Yeah, nothing really breaks by getting Booster consumables into consumable slots, other than a possible Perkeo + Soul.
wanton rapids
you just get jimbos after the 5 legendaries

It'd still be REALLY good for getting other systems online, like Observatory, or saving certain Tarots/Spectrals for the PERFECT time.
vestal crag
Fair enough.
I'd say rare?
Mods.
Debug because I wanted to mess with a stupid lucky card build, Hand of Six becuase it's funny, and Mika's Jokers because I had it enabled already.
Started myself with 5 jokers that were good for building/scaling a deck up to ante 8, traded the worst few out for Dagonet and a few need things from the shop.
Final build was Flush Six of Lucky Polychrome Red Seal 5 of Spades...provided I actually could manage to get 6 of them in my hand.
Acquired a ton of negatives from a mika joker that gives you a random negative if 4 lucky cards activate. Had enough retriggers to almost guarantee that once I got enough lucky cards. (Dagonet is not synergistic with What are the Odds? Dagonet turns it from 4 to 8 required.)
Mika's adds a joker that retriggers lucky cards, by the way.
Also had Hack + Blueprint at the very end.
Died to only drawing 4 of my 6 necessary 5s.

when i have multiple mods on that add lines on the settings menu (e.g. Color Selector, More Speeds, etc), the game crashes when Settings are selected. I'm assuming because the menu is larger than the window itself. Is there a mod to work around this, like a scrollbar for the menu?

particular case*
rare shell
ah, yeah fair nuff
yeah hard crashes with no error log means something is really fundamentally screwed
i am probably going to chalk it up to the ui breaking from this + other things that touch the ui code

you could try removing the mods one by one to see if a particular one is causing the crash

do you not register your jokers as unlocked and discovered?
they're unlocked and discovered now, but now i have the problem of them drawing vanilla sprites, instead of my custom ones

do you use an atlas or single sprites? I had an typo in my atlas yesterday that caused the same problem

i use an atlas, and here is my code (i use notepad++)

someone help me install balamodd
I installed the windows .exe version, now idk what to do, i tried to run "balamod-v0.1.11-windows.exe -a" in my command prompt but i got no clue what im doing
iron onyx
what should happen, is my array of "fusedJokers" variables (which i'm going to fuse with my "jokerLocalization" array at some point) should create the joker, then initialize it
and then the atlas should register at the end
winged scroll
@stable crag Hi, which step am i missing?
runic kraken
i use an atlas, and here is my code (i use notepad++)
you have to specify the atlas in your joker, I think
[...]
v.rarity, v.cost, true, true, true, true, nil, "j_fused", nil

this is documented on the steamodded wiki

Hi guys. I had an idea I think would be neat but I don't have the know how to do it or if it's even feasible. I just think it'd be cool and figured this may be a good place to spit it out. I think it'd be super fun to have joker stickers for the challenges like beating the omelet challenge adds an egg sticker to the joker and what not. I'm a big fan of the stickers and have just had that in my head for a little bit. Ty thx sorry for bothering u kisskiss

iirc divvy's score preview uses steamodded
Ah so it does, thanks!
So after getting around all the blocks I decided to have a look on virus total
I don't think I've ever seen anything innocent flag up this many different things
To be fair I haven't looked up much of this stuff
Am I being overly cautious? Would it be impossible to load divvy's score preview without Steammodded?
wanton rapids
you can use lovely to install steamodded to load up the score preview
tacit mountain
If that would have been a virus, it would have been deleted a long time ago
You can scroll a little bit in the steamodded channel, this has been discussed a million times
cinder sage
I don't think I've ever seen anything innocent flag up this many different thing...
it's because it injects into the game's exe in the same way a virus would

The joker’s description? Do you want to change a field inside of it?
If so, you need to use a UI method (I think it’s something UI_ability) to add a new description
strong falcon
No, I want to check if a Joker gives mult or chips, and since the config is inconsistent (sometimes just called extra instead of mult or chips) I want to check the description for those keywords.

Or at least a new dynamic element of the description (inside #1#)

Hey guys, are the blind sizes calculated at the start of the run or calculated "as you go"?
cunning silo
Hey guys, are the blind sizes calculated at the start of the run or calculated "...
I think blinds are chosen at the start of an ante, and it is calculated then
There’s a specific formula as to how it’s calculated. Each blind has a mult value which multiplies the calculated number for that round
tepid sentinel
each blind has a multiplier and its used to calculate the size depending on the ante right?

what are u doing? i might cancel if we were to make the same thing xD
It’s for a new type of consumable, an alchemical card. You can check it out in #1221916334372290620
strong falcon
Can't you check if extra exists and check if it contains chips mult or Xmult?
No, for example bull is defined like this, there's no mention of chips anywhere:
j_bull= {order = 93, unlocked = true, discovered = false, blueprint_compat = true, eternal_compat = true, rarity = 2, cost = 6, name = "Bull",set = "Joker", config = {extra = 2}, pos = {x=7,y=14}},

Hello, does anyone know if there are some instructions to make mods? I wanted to try making one but wiki on steamodded github page isn't that clear for me.

I'd prefer "when Boss Blind is defeated"
wanton rapids
yeah i changed it to that
lean dune
Hello, does anyone know if there are some instructions to make mods? I wanted to...
yeah the wiki is still incomplete. Sorry about that, but the game in its full release state (and the modding community alongside it) is still fairly new
for starters, you'll want to have a look at the game's code by extracting the executable with 7-zip or similar
another useful resource would be other mods
lean dune
hm I think that's good for a start (started run on absolute deck and removed it)
this solution does allow one to get an extra discard on top of any deck effect that happens at the start of the run, but I think that's acceptable
north comet
another useful resource would be other mods
I tried analyzing one but I have no idea where the effects of jokers are written, like a joker is created, its visuals and texts are set, but can't see the effects
wanton rapids
which mod?
north comet
I looked at JellyMod
lean dune
If a mod uses the Steamodded joker API, the Joker effect will be in a function called SMODS.Jokers.j_joker.calculate()
where j_joker is whatever the slug (key) of the joker is
lean dune
I looked at JellyMod
that's not a great starting point, it's not fully up to date with the newest loader version
wanton rapids

north comet
<#1215775159638818826> is a good reference point for jokers last I checked
I think I can't understand such complicated stuff (at least it is for me, I've never used lua or modded games) without someone explaining it to me, guess I'll wait for some good instructions

If you have any specific questions, I'm here to help

Emperors cannot trigger other emperors though, so it would be three other jokers only, no?

sullen sandal
yes that might be that, you seems to by at the end of a round, so that seems plausible

anyways, I'm going to do something else than my legendary for a bit
How is this Joker?
I have a new idea for "Building Jokers" that disable Jokers next to them in exchange for cool buffs and boons.

Can config.center.soul_pos (.x/.y) be used to change soul_pos at any moment?
I found mentions of it yet can't get it to work

you might need to call set_sprites again, but that should be no different from regular pos

Got it, thank you for the help. I've been trying to create a Dongfang Joker whose main gimmick revolved around an Emperor joker that was exclusive to him, but I've been drawing blanks so far. Do you have any ideas by chance? If you don't that's okay, since I'm focusing on other things right now and you did a lot for me already.

okay now an answer
rare shell
if something would remove a card from the deck, most of the time it'll be start_dissolve or is there a function for card removal?
now that I think about it, probably should've checked if start_dissolve calls something else before asking the question
tacit crest
There's Card:remove() and start_dissolve() calls it iirc
lean dune
start_dissolve calls remove, yeah
base game usually uses shatter for glass cards instead

yeah

hi, does anyone know whether the bug in steamodded where it bricks your profile if you have a saved run on a modded deck and you turn the mod off has been fixed?

hi, does anyone know whether the bug in steamodded where it bricks your profile ...
Newest Steamodded update fixes this yea
round oar
do you know any details of how they did it?
lean dune
it's a pretty simple fix, the game itself has a fallback and sets that somewhere
So I just had to use that property instead of what's passed in
as always it's only bug free until someone finds the next bug
but this should be the most stable we've had in a while
rigid jewel
Surely someone isn't gonna miss a bug like that voucher crash (clueless)

that one was fairly obvious once I read into the function I was modifying

hardy brook
Okay Weird question: Is there a way for me to have it so that whenever I would Gain money, I don't and instead have something else happen?
rare shell
I think you can inject and simply not call the original function?
hardy brook
Would injecting break the function if i uninstall though?
rare shell
🤷♂️
hardy brook
And would this work for a joker effect
rigid jewel
If you want it to affect all you can append the ease_dollars function
Can't remember if this also works for stopping money from payout
hardy brook
I mean I could just have it convoluted as like
"If you gain money, lose that amount and store the amount in a hidden ID"
hardy brook
I mean you could make a bank out of it
I'm helping with a project
Basically my idea for programming it is this (in pseudo code)
if (Moneygain & Joker){
Money = Money - MoneyGain
StoredValue = MoneyGain
Joker xmult = +(0.2x MoneyGain)
StoredValue = 0
}
Money = Money - MoneyGain is so that the amount you have before gaining the money and the money after the effect are the same.
That amount is stored temporarily so that it can become the multipler for xMult, and then refreshed so that you don't accidentally add the old stored mult (though it could be useless to put stored value back to 0)
grand geode
prefix the ease_money function
though ease_money doesn't tell you where the source of money came from methinks
hardy brook

I don't think the source of the case comes from, as long as this works when the joker's out and works as it did before when the joker's gone
grand geode
if you're doing to any money gain then yeah prefix the function
though playing without any money sucks major ass
hardy brook
Well you are gaining xmult
and if you want cash, just sell the joker
simple as that
iron onyx
oooh, that's nice
i just successfully bypassed the normal joker limit when you're specifically buying a joker that will immediately fuse with one you already have.

Could somebody give me some help with using Steamodded + Lovely Injector? I'm not entirely sure how the combination works. I promise I'm not stupid, I looked everywhere for a detailed guide and didn't find one.
Things worked fine before but I updated to the latest version of Steamodded and now the game crashes unless I remove all my mods.
fresh delta
same error im getting
sullen sandal
everything's explained here :
https://github.com/ethangreen-dev/lovely-injector?tab=readme-ov-file#manual-installation
Steamodded is, in this context, considered as a mod.
https://github.com/Steamopollys/Steamodded/tree/main?tab=readme-ov-file#external-tool-lovely-injector
please ensure that the Balatro.exe is clean. For that, verify the game files in steam. If something's wrong with one of the files, it will patch the game files
fresh delta
i had mods installed previously. i just did a clean wipe. and did everything. but im getting that same error. about the nil value
cedar comet
Same here. Just did a total wipe and reinstall.
Something must have changed in the latest version of Steamodded to cause this.
fresh delta
thats what i think
fresh install of the game works just fine. as soon as steammodded is installed without any mods. i get that error
sullen sandal
I managed to recreate the issue, I'll search a but tonight what's happening
I'll explore more tomorrow, it's almost 3am where i live

Fair enough. Thanks for offering to help

A pretty technical question, how do you guys handle function wrapping upon adding to deck?
these will be lost when you close and reload the game right
is there a way to set those upon loading up a game? is there a stage like that in game?

@lean dune I just thought about something.
Maybe we should find a way to split mods into separate files?
sleek granite
is it possible for a tooltip to be conditional? like if there is a function set does it have to return/set one or can it return nothing (i want to make my planet cards show exactly what Observatory makes them do but maybe set it so its only while you possess Observatory? not sure this is good design but w/e)
mods already can be multiple files tho right
dusky reef
btw guys how to use the new debug console
lean dune
is it possible for a tooltip to be conditional? like if there is a function set ...
tooltips aren't returned from any function directly, you're passed on info_queue and you can modify it however you want
dusky reef
i got nothing out of it currently

<@538635176847343636> I just thought about something.
Maybe we should find a way...
Take a look at my deck creator mod, I'm linking multiple lua files using normal require syntax due to some special loading behavior
lean dune
i got nothing out of it currently
you need to run it before starting up the game
dusky reef
i did
do i have to set it to specific mode?
when i run it and then start the game, nothing happens
doesn't say it's connected so probably wasn't
lean dune
do you have a specific log level set? it might be hiding stuff if so
dusky reef
how do i do that?
oh yeah i realized python console has been telling me this
no it was indeed log_level
but how do i set those things and where
lean dune
there should be selector at the bottom of the screen where it should say TRACE or DEBUG or INFO or whatever
dusky reef
yep it says this when i set it to debug
(i set it to debug before launching the game, and this shows up when i launch the game)
does this need 0.9.7?
dusky reef
well it worked when i updated it to 0.9.7
is it because of of the debug.lua? hmmmm
anyways it works now, thx for the help!
lean dune
you might have had an outdated version then, idk
dusky reef
i was on 0.9.5 which i think is supposed to support new debug console
lean dune
uh yeah 0.9.6 had some changes to it
sullen sandal
I'm gonna take a look
sullen sandal
thx
There's a breaking change between 0.9.5 and 0.9.7 (debug console side only). You should use the debug console that is shipped with the Steamodded version that you use
dusky reef
oh i usually just download the injector and inject, i grabbed the newest debug console from the current git repo directly
probably that's why
dusky reef

btw what's the breaking change 👀
not that i didn't read the change log, just want some highlights
sullen sandal
the way the timestamp of a log is generated, this was delegated to Steamodded instead of letting the debug console generate it. This was needed in case a huge amount of logs comes at the same time
therefore parse an incoming log differently, which might have create the exception you had
