[normal palm]

yeaa ill revise it bc i see some things i could definitely make better

[stone brook]

that looks way too high rez

actually, does 2x HAVE to be an upscaled 1x

[dapper helm]

technically no but that'd be weird

[tall vessel]

Probably not, but that might result in weird "inconsistencies" I think.

[karmic geode]

where do the 2x sprites actually get used? ive been messing with editing sprites and i've genuinely never seen any instance of the 2x being used cause i haven't bothered editing those

[kindred swallow]

When does the game load 1x textures? I have a few that are different than the 2x and I don't think I've noticed where in the game they're different

[grand geode]

2x is what you're using most likely

1x is lowres maybe?

[dapper helm]

pixel smoothing setting on and off afaik

[karmic geode]

ohhh is that it

that explains a lot

[grand geode]

ic

[karmic geode]

yep that's it, just checked

[kindred swallow]

So if pixel smoothing is on the game load the higher res textures?

[dapper helm]

yeah

[kindred swallow]

Ahhh

[dapper helm]

i don't know if they're used elsewhere i just know that cause it made me crash once lol

[grand geode]

inch resting

[kindred swallow]

Guess I don't have to make two textures if I only make art for my personal stuff

Hours, wasted

[karmic geode]

yea ive been making sprite edits for personal use and ive only touched the 1x and ive never seen the 2x show up

it's good to know for future reference though!

[grand geode]

i stole the upscale python script from dps lol so i don't have to worry about that

[dapper helm]

i upscale for personal use for no real reason

[lean dune]

my playing card API lovely patches are up to 400 lines, and I still have deck preview and challenge description tab to do 💀

[grand geode]

gaming

[stone brook]

yea im just automating my upscaling now lmao

[lean dune]

the patches for view deck aren't even that much shorter combined than the original overwrite

[nocturne dagger]

guys do any of you know how to fix this error?
im trying to install mods,this error comes up when ever i open balatro,i only installed steammodded

[grand geode]

i answered the last time you posted this

scroll up

[gilded vortex]

I just use the native aseprite upscale and it seems to work fine

Just set it to closest neighbor

[grand geode]

yeah i used to do that

[gilded vortex]

I thought 1x was for collection and 2x for gameplay

[grand geode]

a script is just faster

[gilded vortex]

How so?

[grand geode]

i have a lot of individual files

[stone brook]

yea i made a python script that i just point at a 1x folder and it upscales the entire folder into 2x

its pretty lit

(i made 400 sprites automatically)

(theyre all placeholders)

[cunning silo]

I just noticed

Your pfp is clodsire

[dapper helm]

feder what is your pfp?

[cunning silo]

A really old Minecraft skin

[grand geode]

OH

that's an enderman eye

[dapper helm]

i see

[cunning silo]

I need to change that

BTW sadly the jam would not happen this weekend, some things popped up that I need to do

[toxic cloud]

I'd love to see someone make a mod for Blackjack hand like this

[tacit crest]

REVERIE IS OUT??????
https://dvrp-balatro-mods.pages.dev/reverie

[toxic cloud]

here are some of my ideas:
Planet Nine (Planet)

(lv1) Level up Blackjack
+1 Mult and +21 chips
Careful Joker (Common)
+50 chips if played hand contains Blackjack
Risky Joker (Common)
+6 Mult if played hand contains Blackjack
The Gambler (Rare)
X2 Mult if played hand contains Blackjack

[dapper helm]

ermmmm the person in the screenshot is making them

thats actually in game

[toxic cloud]

waow cool

I hope they have the same joker idea as mine, since it's rather straightforward to have some jokers support a weak poker hand

[dapper helm]

@brisk seal person interested in your mod

[toxic cloud]

sadly I won't be playing any mods for now, at least until I got RB and C+

[dapper helm]

rb?

[rare shell]

finally

[toxic cloud]

Rule Breaker

[dapper helm]

wait its out?

[toxic cloud]

achievement for completing all challenges

[dapper helm]

how did i look past that message

[dapper helm]

ohhhhhhh i thought you were talking about C+ the programming language and had some odd reason i wouldn't be able to understand

[stone brook]

clodsire my beloved

[lean dune]

omg

[toxic cloud]

the programming language you were talking about is C++

mistaking it for C+ is so funni

[dapper helm]

i mean true i just don't keep track of all programming languages so wasn't sure if there was also a C+

[stone brook]

the existence of C++ implies the existence of C+ to be fair

[grand geode]

i mean

[stone brook]

oh i forgot about templeos

[dapper helm]

HolyC

[stone brook]

funniest shit ive ever seen

also if the mod jam isnt happening this weekend im probably gonna miss it since im away for the rest of may 😔

[dapper helm]

i love the stamp deck already

wonderful concept

[wanton rapids]

holy c is C†

[dapper helm]

what even is HolyC?

wall of text upon ye

[tacit crest]

Wow

[dapper helm]

does it work with how codex adds their tag?

just curious, probably not related at all

[tacit crest]

Yeah I tested with it

[cunning silo]

XD

[dapper helm]

nice

i think i probably just need to update lovely

no idea what version i have exactly

definitely not the one it says is required

[tacit crest]

It seems you have 0.4.0

I needed some magic updated in newer versions

[cunning silo]

BTW you can cheese Reverie cine cards (especiall Poker Face) with alchemicals

[dapper helm]

i tried to download the one thats needed and clicked the wrong one...

after that wall of text not before to be clear

[dapper helm]

feder you can make fake hands like the base game "royal flush" with the hand api right?

i have some dumb text changes i'd like to make if its convenient (renaming flush house to "club house" when its a club flush)

[wanton rapids]

oh yeah @oblique berry two new consumeable types released today, being colours (from morefluff) and cine cards (from reverie which is so cool)
https://dvrp-balatro-mods.pages.dev/reverie
https://notmario.github.io/MoreFluff/

[dapper helm]

both are so cool frfr

blasphemous deck is a lot of fun

[swift matrix]

ooooh

Another perfectly normal game of balatro

With an equally normal shop

[carmine mortar]

Seems legit

[fallow bramble]

3 Voucher joker is overkill lol

[carmine mortar]

Nah, can’t possibly

[swift matrix]

hehe, tbh I don't think it does much now that I'm doing spade flushes with red seal rainbow cards

And with my base flush hand looking like this

I need some more polychrome jupiters to get that mult up

[worn pumice]

pog it's out
the mod pack grows

[wanton rapids]

download in like 2 minutes after i release v1.3.3

[dapper helm]

gacha deck midnight crew both based

[worn pumice]

see you in an hour for 1.3.4 /s

[swift matrix]

Yeah, it's my first time playing with it, it's pretty cool

[dapper helm]

i haven't played with that deck in specific really but i like the pack quite a lot

[wanton rapids]

im going to sleep now, give it like a 0.1% chance

[swift matrix]

though I think I might have to declare this run dead. I think the known issue with gold's cards/enhanceapi where the tooltips stack when bonus chips are added to cards is causing crashes

[worn pumice]

could you continue if you remove those mods?

just curious

[swift matrix]

idk, probably not. At the very least I'd lose immediately. Gold's rainbow card, which give 3x mult are the basis of my scoring

[dapper helm]

ok chat pick a number 1-18

[swift matrix]

13

[dapper helm]

stamp deck it is

[cunning silo]

Oh this is so good

[wanton rapids]

oh i love || ||!

[cunning silo]

One one side there's all of my mods

on the other size are other mods I have on

[cinder sage]

are composite hands the chess ones?

[cunning silo]

Yes

[grand geode]

oh cine cards are out

a new consumable type for my The Monster to consume

[rare shell]

good timing

[supple cypress]

does lovley work on linux? where is the mod directory?

[abstract epoch]

which mod is color cards?

[rare shell]

https://discord.com/channels/1116389027176787968/1214097296317227028

[worn pumice]

huh

it's round 2

[oblique berry]

HOLY

[pale pivot]

Anyone know what happened to Balatro going on R2 Mod Manager? Would love an easier way to add mods on my Steam Deck 😅

[wanton rapids]

it's been accepted, just waiting for the next release

[rare shell]

murph eating good today

thanks for giving me motivation to add more stuff to jestobiology when i get home to both notmario and dvrp

yall decide to drop 2 massive content updates on my first proper day on the floor

[oblique berry]

thanks for making a bunch of cool stuff for the game! 🫂

[rare shell]

oh wew

[worn pumice]

the game sometimes crashes when I try to open a pack

[rare shell]

murph have you seen some of the codex fusions

[grand geode]

i still need to work on rewriting house rules

not in a rush though i haven't touched my code for a day

[rare shell]

still working on trying to fix the textbox from getting cut off but

[oblique berry]

nuh uh not yet I got a long list of stuff I need to check out still. Next week might just be mod week

[wanton rapids]

theoretically infinite of your chosen alchemical?

[rare shell]

it is a nondeterministic infinite in the same way emporer is

[wanton rapids]

*tarot

get all of the other tarotd

the only one that can generate is your chosen one

[grand geode]

quick make more mods so every week is a mod week

[rare shell]

sure

[grand geode]

text box being cut off? how so

[grand geode]

oh

eek

[rare shell]

ye

i have to do some formatting

but i have work

👋

wish me luck folks

[grand geode]

good luck lyman

[rare shell]

off to the factory floor for the first time

[fallow arrow]

hmm was trying to trigger spectrums...

[gilded vortex]

Please tell me if you figure out how because I’m having the same issue sometimes 😅

[grand geode]

clearly write less stuff in your tooltips

[dapper helm]

impossible

[gilded vortex]

I think my issue is the Joker subtitle 😅

[rare shell]

In my case it's just the nature of the things

I'll just have to make them really fat

[worn pumice]

I've seen 2 and used 1 tarot that changes to new suit
why game

[cinder sage]

does it just debuff every card

[rare shell]

What blind is that from?

[cinder sage]

except stones?

[rare shell]

Bunco?

[worn pumice]

I made it

[worn pumice]

it adds 2 "secret" suits

[rare shell]

Okay so it is bunco

stones don't get debuffed yeah, fleurons and halberds don't get debuffed too
wild cards with fleuron or halberd base don't get debuffed because the debuff affects only the base suit

yep

Have you considered just debuffing your 3 most common suits?

blind doesn't appear if you don't use the exotic stuff

I figure it didnt

it's under condition

[rare shell]

huge btw

[worn pumice]

I didn't before ante 8 and it still appeared

[rare shell]

Still, like what was said, seems really harsh if you just use one or two tarots

Kind of dissuades me

[lean dune]

thought I'd drop this here

[worn pumice]

Got a last minute fleuron tarot

[rare shell]

I don't really care too much for extra suits as is mostly because it's hard to have consistency (but I like how you handle them in bunco)

But perhaps maybe either change the blind to be more forgiving or change the condition to appear after a certain threshold imo

yeah we were discussing the chances actually

at fist I suggested that it should appear with more chance depending of the ratio of exotic cards to non-exotic in your deck

[grand geode]

okay but localized mods would go so hard

[lean dune]

1.0 will support that

[rare shell]

but then we settled to just basic condition

[grand geode]

not localization mods

[worn pumice]

but I had 0 exotic cards before ante 8

[rare shell]

Note to self I need to update bunco when I get home

[rare shell]

I am excited to design fusions

[rare shell]

it doesn't count your exotic cards, it checks if you ever played spectrum

Huh

Maybe add a check for number of exotic cards in addition?

could do that

the next update will be purely balancing

and we have a number of things to do with that

[cunning silo]

Now tell me...
Which one would you choose...

https://streamable.com/9uwrw3

[rare shell]

Hee hee
Hoo hoo

[wanton rapids]

holy moly

[tacit crest]

That looks so cool

[rare shell]

Oh shoot

Hey while you're here

[rare shell]

Do I have your blessing to utilize reverie in designing fusions for ectobiology?

yooo
https://youtu.be/PUoobp9imjk

[oblique berry]

THOSE SQUAMS HOLY

[tacit crest]

Yeah for sure

[oblique berry]

i need to check out bunco

i will say the only downside of how awesome you all are at making mods

is that i dont have enought time in the week to play them all LOL

[rare shell]

Bunco is very epic

[wanton rapids]

there's like one joker in reverie no?

[shrewd stream]

buncoooooo

[rare shell]

Hey you never know

For the future

[cunning silo]

These fools... They sure like to tell stories.
Stories of great triumph and glory, but hidden within them are secret, heavy burdens.
Ready to carry their stories, and the burdens that come with them?

The secret project is out of the bag!

[fallow bramble]

Itay please stop cooking you make me feel bad

[cunning silo]

Fool's Fables is a project me and Lyman have been working on for a while now, and we are really happy to show it off

[grand geode]

Lyman how long have you been kidnapped to Feder's basement

[fallow bramble]

So cool

[rare shell]

I need to maintain the lab

[grand geode]

if i had a video editing program i would make a mystblinds trailer

[rare shell]

I'll animate it for you in blender :^)

[grand geode]

sob

[worn pumice]

I just looked at the deck and they went into an infinite loop

[grand geode]

uh wdym

i hope it's not ancestor's fault

[worn pumice]

it eventually stopped

[grand geode]

hm

[worn pumice]

ghost print (from bunco) is just triggering repeatly

[grand geode]

okay thank god

[worn pumice]

still don't understand how ancestor work

[grand geode]

(Round * 1.5)

currently the text is borked ignore it (displays highest played hand)

[dapper helm]

ectobiology

[grand geode]

super easy

compared to like this

a bit more work if you want it to only affect long cards i think

here's the lovely file

[cursive compass]

sorry to ask but i'm curious is there a general ETA for 1.0?

like just an overall guesstimate

because a lot of 1.0 features i honestly REALLY want to use in my mods but i can't until the update is officially out

or well i can't upload mods that depend on those features, of course i can just download the changes made in pushes but you know what i mean

[lean dune]

I'm about done with converting what's been there in 0.9.8, now I have a few more things to refine in the loader

and then I just need to handle open PRs and adjust these features to the new format ig

[cursive compass]

that's great news, no rush ofc but it's cool that it's that close to being finished

[worn pumice]

interesting

[cursive compass]

it's gonna require lovely from 1.0 onwards right?

[lean dune]

yeah, lovely.toml is up to 1.3k lines as of now

[cursive compass]

nice nice

[lean dune]

So I'd expect a RC version by next week, but keep in mind we need a stable release of lovely before we can have a stable steamodded release relying on it

[carmine mortar]

DX Legends?

[cursive compass]

that makes sense

the "waiting on a new release of thing it depends on before it can release" chain...

localized mods is particularly exciting because i was hoping to localize balatrotale into japanese if i had the free time

i doubt it'd be much additional work at all since it'd just be descriptions and like 1-2 sprites

[lean dune]

I'm still trying to see how I could make multiple mods access the same sprite for localization

[cursive compass]

like if 2 mods add individual edits to jokers.png or something?

[lean dune]

like one mod changes jokers.png for a French localization, and another one does the same for Japanese

they would access the same sprite key, but there's technically no conflict

might need a subclass that acts on a specific language

[cursive compass]

i think both the french mod and japanesesprites load the sprites when the language is switched midgame

...i cant really imagine that many cases where someone would have 2 language mods loaded at the same time either really

[lean dune]

ik, I just want it to be possible for them not to conflict

[cursive compass]

i took this code from the french mod so it does the same thing

[cursive compass]

that's still fair honestly

[astral glade]

holy shit so much released today

[dapper helm]

real

[cursive compass]

what else other than reverie?

[dapper helm]

morefluff update

just those 2 come to mind but they're quite large

[cursive compass]

ah

yeah the morefluff update is huge

color cards and working blacklist are both big

[grand geode]

house rules 2 releases now

[astral glade]

they made a sequel..

[dapper helm]

if house rules 2 is so good why isn't there a house rules 3?

[lean dune]

actually I don't

you'll be able to specify a language parameter which modifies the key, and injection is skipped if that language isn't selected

[cursive compass]

that's sick

big day for balatro fans who speak literally anything other than english

[supple cypress]

its so joever

[lean dune]

okay now back to figuring out why my code for adding languages doesn't work

[cursive compass]

what a steal

[dapper helm]

never been more joever than it is now

flash card is pretty good there btw

[worn pumice]

Loan shark at it lol

I actually bought and sold it later without going negative once

[lean dune]

yep, looks like I've fixed it

also works for replacing existing loc files

[supple cypress]

what does this even mean

[dapper helm]

X2 mult if you only have 3 cards in hand while scoring, X4 if you only have 2 cards in hand while scoring
something like that

so for example if you use "the hanged man" to get rid of cards and then play 5 cards you'll get a bunch of xMult

[supple cypress]

is there a way to have only the colour cards from morefluff?
i guess i got to edit th mod files

[dapper helm]

yeah i think theres a blacklist in the code somewhere

[oblique berry]

👀 👀 👀 👀 👀 👀 👀 👀 👀 👀 👀 👀 👀 👀

[cursive compass]

it could be worded a bit better honestly

[dapper helm]

definitely, i'm still not sure if i'm even right with that interpretation

[cursive compass]

i think it's X2 for 2 cards in hand, X4 for 1 card in hand? at least that's the impression i get

it should be like "X2 Mult for each card less than 3 left in hand"

but that could be confused as referring to ranks so idk

there isn't a great way to word it concisely tbf

[supple cypress]

greatest lie ever told

colour is wrong (cause it negative)

[modern dew]

I heard there is a multiplayer mod for Balatro, did someone have an invite to their discord server? (or is it already somewhere here?) Thanks!

[dapper helm]

i can dm it to you

[shrewd stream]

Multiplayer mod?

[dapper helm]

yeah

[shrewd stream]

How does that function gameplay wise?

[modern dew]

Yeah I would be interested, I'm open to DM feel free to

[dapper helm]

theres a few modes i think, all pvp where you try to score higher than your opponent afaik. i haven't tried it myself

[supple cypress]

not today mr bones

[gilded vortex]

@lavish jackal I was testing a WIP Joker so I had a cheaty start, but I stumbled upon this combo

[dapper helm]

seems about right

[supple cypress]

we ball

turns out triple heart paladin is actually quite good

[west magnet]

anyone know any mods that slows ante scaling, but not so much that it feels too cheaty

[supple cypress]

you mean especially for endless?

[west magnet]

I suppose so

[swift matrix]

the collector voucher from betmma kinda does that if you collect a lot of vouchers

[swift matrix]

I maaay be in a bit of debt

[round ore]

@cunning silo

[supple cypress]

hearts are on the left right?

[round ore]

i broke it some more sorry

[dapper helm]

spades, hearts, clubs, diamonds left to right

so middle left

you can see the order by going to deck view

top to bottom = left to right

[west magnet]

I'll check it out!

[lean dune]

random change, it's reverse order compared to suit nominals, which means starting in 1.0 new suits are added at the top, not the bottom

[dapper helm]

are the base ones same order tho?

[supple cypress]

me rn 🫱 😬 (biting my nails)

[dapper helm]

oh easy

[lean dune]

I can't change base game order or I'm changing RNG

that's the tricky part, I need to reverse the list in some places

[supple cypress]

closet ive been to losing

in endless

[lean dune]

this is mainly because the API now uses itself to initialize its starting valuee

[dapper helm]

they're still sorted by rank even if you hit the "sort hand by suit" button so like those faces in the middle are hearts here

and you winning by e15 will not spare you from the yapping, i must explain all these things in depth

the world must know

[round ore]

i have a repeated error

[swift matrix]

On a totally unrelated note, I'm not sure sharkyboy here is programmed correctly. He seems quite content to give rather... sub prime loans

[swift matrix]

I guess I can't lose, but I also can't buy anything, lol

not /really/ what you want for reverie

[round ore]

@cunning silo not sure if you know the cause. apologies

[west magnet]

how easy is it to have a mod override an existing joker, to give it a new effect?

[dapper helm]

as easy as making a new joker afaik

[lean dune]

steamodded allows you to take ownership of an existing joker, then use any modded API methods on it that you want

[supple cypress]

he cant keep getting away with it

[wanton rapids]

do you lose absurd amounts of money?

[west magnet]

well the idea is a voucher that adds 1 to any value written on all jokers. Played cards with Spade suit icon Spade suit give +3 Mult when scored turns into Played cards with Spade suit icon Spade suit give +4 Mult when scored for instance

[swift matrix]

did you see the first message I sent? lol

[wanton rapids]

working as planned

[supple cypress]

mum can we have mr bones?
mr bones at home

[round ore]

anyone know what field extra means?

[dapper helm]

dagonet from mikas mod does something similar, afaik they don't need to alter base game jokers to do it either

oh yeah i still need to unlock the freaky deck huh

[supple cypress]

can you fuse jokers without buying them?

[dapper helm]

[swift matrix]

I kept skipping looking to get an ankh in spectral tags and of course when an ankh did show up, it was ankh DX which doesn't set money to 0

[supple cypress]

wraith doesnt work if you're in debt i think

[dapper helm]

it does

[swift matrix]

wraith I meant

brain

[woeful finch]

it does

[lean dune]

yep it does

[dapper helm]

@wanton rapids freaky deck is beautiful, maybe the best thing i've seen in this game

[swift matrix]

tbh I managed to get over 80k on the ante 8 boss blind which isn't too bad for only playing boss blinds pretty much

definitely helped that I had 2 retriggering rainbow cards

[round ore]

btw Coro what mods you make?

[dapper helm]

none

i am an idea person only, and sometimes really easy art stuff for fun

[round ore]

fair

[dapper helm]

that said i do help with ortalab stuff

[round ore]

anyone else having problems with codex?

any time i try to generate a card it crashes

[dapper helm]

its been working fine for me

[round ore]

this is my error any ideas?

[cunning silo]

?

[woeful finch]

that joker on the right doesn’t look like it’s from codex

[round ore]

not sure what's causing it but i really don't want to turn off the mod because it's really fun

[dapper helm]

bunco yeah

[woeful finch]

ah ic ic

[dapper helm]

i got swindled trying to buy and sell

[fallow bramble]

Eternal but no badge 😔

[rigid jewel]

𝐹𝓇𝑒𝒶𝓀𝓎 Joker?!?!

[swift matrix]

Lol yeah, was gonna ask

[dapper helm]

Jokers are now freaky

[rigid jewel]

Freaky deck is real now

[round ore]

OH COME ON

[dapper helm]

1 in 100 chance when you start the game with more fluff 100% real and true

[dapper helm]

update lovely

[round ore]

link?

Github sucks to navigae

[young pine]

what is that

[dapper helm]

https://github.com/ethangreen-dev/lovely-injector/releases/download/v0.5.0-beta2/version.dll direct download link

[lavish jackal]

@dapper helm what do you think this means :)

there is a rather sinister trick to it

[round ore]

where do i throw this

[dapper helm]

when you score pair, 3oak etc it gives more and more mult each time the cards are triggered? idk what the trick is

[lavish jackal]

ok so look at this series of numbers

0 repeats (1 card only) -> 1
1 repeat -> 1
2 repeats -> 2
3 repeats -> 6
4 repeats -> 24
5 repeats -> 120

[dapper helm]

right click balatro on steam and go to manage > browse local files and put the dll there

should replace the one you already have

[lavish jackal]

can you take any guess as to what the next element in this series is coro

[woeful finch]

||720?||

[dapper helm]

no guess i have been awake for far too long for pattern recognition or real thought

[rare shell]

Hi chat I'm cold

[lavish jackal]

spot on

[dapper helm]

hi lyman

[woeful finch]

haha!

[lavish jackal]

it gives +Mult based on the factorial sequence

[dapper helm]

btw akai what do you think of this

[lavish jackal]

cursed

why is it freaky

[dapper helm]

freaky deck

[rare shell]

Freaky jokers...

[lavish jackal]

lyman look

tangle buddies

squiddle-dee-dee

squiddle-dee-dum

[round ore]

i put it in there

[dapper helm]

you replaced the old version dll with the new one yes?

[lavish jackal]

it tells you right at the top what the problem is

[lavish jackal]

Failed to parse patch file at C:\...\Mods\Reverie\lovely.toml

[round ore]

wich one

[rare shell]

This warms my heart

[lavish jackal]

Reverie doesn't have a lovely.toml patch

[dapper helm]

yeah remove "version" and rename "version (2)" to "version"

[lavish jackal]

coro version is not the issue here

reverie doesn't have a patch file

[dapper helm]

it does, its just the error on older version

[lavish jackal]

tf

[dapper helm]

i got this error earlier today

[lavish jackal]

oh cursed

btw lyman

[round ore]

there

[lavish jackal]

Tangle Buddies follow factorial increase

for +Mult

[round ore]

tbf that's just how my week is going

[dapper helm]

factorial week...

[round ore]

oh come on the mods stopped working

it disabled steamodded

what happened

[dapper helm]

is the lovely window still popping up

[round ore]

no

[lavish jackal]

you need to install steamodded with lovely

smh

[dapper helm]

send another screenshot of the balatro folder pls

[round ore]

i have it already installed

[dapper helm]

gotta rename version (2) to just "version"

[round ore]

tf do i do that

[dapper helm]

right click and hit rename

[round ore]

the rename key was in a weird spot

it was not named rename

[dapper helm]

hey i got the soul again

any guesses for the primary color of the legendary? easier than listing the ones available

[young pine]

will make u die fast

who the hell was the 1 who made an API here?

[dapper helm]

which api

[young pine]

also is that food?

[young pine]

idk any

i wanna learn how to make APIs for games

[dapper helm]

homestuck food thing

[young pine]

makes sense that its food

also does it get "eaten" when u reach 1 and go into another round w it?

[dapper helm]

feder, aure, myst (will soon), emi (aka balatrotale gaming)

oh i got stanczyk from the soul

i have no enhanced cards

[rare shell]

Polish

[young pine]

is there a main API?

or 1 that most modders use?

[lavish jackal]

steamodded

[dapper helm]

don't you see lyman? i didn't do the n so i'm clearly not polish

[young pine]

thats a modloader, no?

[dapper helm]

aure and feder are working on that yeah

[lavish jackal]

it also has an api

[young pine]

all mods have an API

[dapper helm]

modloader with like all the apis built in

[lavish jackal]

a) thats simply false
b) its meant to make things way easier from the getgo without the need for core mods

[young pine]

ah cool

well then ill say that almost all mods use APIs

||gets corrected again||

[dapper helm]

they use them but don't all make them yeah

[young pine]

didnt say they make em

[lavish jackal]

Steamodded having built-in API is very useful

you kind of did

[young pine]

having an api doesnt mean writing it

am i wrong?

[lavish jackal]

yes it does? thats how thats worded?

to have an API means to own it

to use an API means to integrate it into your own code

[young pine]

hm

okay reasonable argument

tho from my point of view the correct wording for saying that they make them is "all modders have an api"

@lavish jackal can you explain in detail what exactly an API is ?

[rare shell]

What is even the question here

[young pine]

19h on flashpoint is wild

[young pine]

the question is can they

[dapper helm]

why are you looking to argue

play silly modded gambling game

[rare shell]

Can they what?

[young pine]

im asking a question.......

[rare shell]

Describe something to you?

[dapper helm]

can they explain it i'm guessing

[rare shell]

Like are you confused about what an api is or is this some kind of check on akai?

[young pine]

the question is can they take their precious time and explain something thats probably basic knowledge to them to me in detail

[dapper helm]

for what reason

to what end

[rare shell]

Yeah I'm a bit confused

[young pine]

because im interested to what exactly it is??????

why are yall attacking me

[dapper helm]

just gonna block and move on

[rare shell]

I'm not? I'm just genuinely tr6ing to understand the context and tone

[young pine]

like fuck off can i not ask a question? sure ima go to another modding communitty

[rare shell]

Yikes

[dapper helm]

anyway i have a cool wee joker run going

[rare shell]

I hope everything is alright with yall dang

Wee joker isn't a real joker

[dapper helm]

then who is giving me 208 chips 😨

[rare shell]

[dapper helm]

died cause i couldn't find any mult jokers 😔

[rare shell]

We need more mult jokers...

[dapper helm]

like 4 antes in

[dapper helm]

frfr give me 60 more mult jokers

oh now i have all the xmult next run

3 by the second shop

[round ore]

my crash with codex is consistent

even after downloading the current version

[dapper helm]

ah something must be bugged i just got another soul

[round ore]

by round 5 lol

[winter bone]

what the scallop

[short trench]

Sorry if this has already been answered but I can’t find it when I Google it or search here in the discord. I’m trying to download Steammodded on my M1pro MacBook (arm64 not x86) but after I do everything else correct I get held up in terminal with the error “No such file or directory: 7zz” even though I have 7zip downloaded and installed, anyone know a fix?

[winter bone]

?????

it does, infact, exist

balatro more like stupid idiot

can soeone who's smarter than me tell me why it cant find a file when the file exists

[fallow bramble]

It's in your head

You've got to wake up

[winter bone]

ok

still not working

[fallow bramble]

Joke aside no clue sorry

[shy pivot]

asset mismatch probably just means incorrect install?

so, try re-installing?

[main locust]

Bad read permissions for the user you're running Balatro under?

I.e. you're allowed to preview the file, but not read it

IDK, that's about the only thing I can think of, NTFS technically allows for such a permission set

[winter bone]

shouldnt be, this is my personal laptop i only have one user on it

is it because i have lovely and steammodded?

[main locust]

hmm... no idea... maybe, I haven't been into Balatro modding, but I know some IT

[winter bone]

well im not reformatting my drive so

[shy pivot]

wait

is this a release download?

or did you download source files?

[winter bone]

oh

my bad

ur right

[shy pivot]

oh god, i actually helped

[main locust]

yeah, download the release, not the sources, the sources might actually need a linker or something to help

[winter bone]

nop

ur right

wrong

not right

smh

[shy pivot]

oh? hmm

[winter bone]

didnt help so useless

[shy pivot]

all is as is expected then

[kindred swallow]

I guess it's time to start using lovely

[winter bone]

whos the creator of the mod

oh

nvm

stil not working

but i found who made it

[rare shell]

im home from work folks

[main locust]

hmm, the way I see it, an application (any application, so Balatro as well), not reading files that exist can in 99.9% of cases be caused by a few things:

• permission set
• the function responsible for reading files fails unexpectedly (sometimes caused by modding)
• a dying drive

Can you play the file itself in an audio player if you just open it?

[rare shell]

modding time starts now

[fallow bramble]

Wb

[rare shell]

i should add some cross-mod compat with jank jonklers

i got to go on the factory floor and theres glass shards in my boot

[winter bone]

i can play the file itself

and my drive isnt dying

probably

i also deleted trustedinstaller

so

like

perms

not a thing

i have ownership of everything

[main locust]

hmm... interesting..

[winter bone]

i too dabble a bit

idk man

[carmine mortar]

Glass shard joker

[main locust]

yeah, that's very sus, aside from the function responsible for reading the file failing unexpectedly

can you replace the file with any other OGG file and have it work?

I.e. delete yay.ogg, take any other ogg file, rename it yay.ogg, put it in that place and have it work

I mean... it could be the codec, some bad encoding or other weird shenanigans like that

[winter bone]

i just modified the lua file

so now yay doesnt exist

and it loaded

it doesnt try finding yay

the other sound loaded in

idk why that wouldnt work tho

[main locust]

maybe LOVE isn't compatible with whatever weird settings for the file this file has specifically, i.e. stuff like bitrate, bit depth, etc.

hence I suggested replacing this file with anything else and having it work

[winter bone]

whatever it works now

i hated yes anyway

:C

[main locust]

OK

[white scarab]

use nativefs, LOVE has some dumb restrictions

there's a lovely module for that already

[kindred swallow]

Alright can someone help me with the lovely method?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=62DAxTg4fqw&t=16s&ab_channel=StudentAESTHETICS
I followed this video and I'm getting the blue screen. I doubled checked and steamodded is 0.9.8 and lovely injector is v.0.4.0

Do I need the beta of the latest injector?

[dapper helm]

for reverie yes

[kindred swallow]

The problem is I don't have any other mods in my folder

And I'm assuming when I try to run the game and it generates the lovely folder that's normal?

[dapper helm]

yes

[kindred swallow]

Alright. I'll try the beta version and see what happens

[dapper helm]

i don't know what that error in particular means so i can only recommend the basic stuff, make sure you verify game files and whatever

[kindred swallow]

Same issue

[dapper helm]

send a screenshot of your balatro folder

[dapper helm]

the one with the balatro.exe i mean

[dapper helm]

and you verified file integrity yes?

[kindred swallow]

I did not

[orchid vault]

i can't seem to get lovely working

balatro launches fine, its just that theres nothing installed

[dapper helm]

post screenshot of folder with the balatro.exe

[orchid vault]

i have the lovely.dll file in the balatro directory, i have the steamodded folder in my mods folder, and i have the correct files inside of it

[dapper helm]

did you rename it?

[orchid vault]

what am i supposed to rename it to?

this might be the issue

[dapper helm]

nono you just don't rename it, or "version.dll"

[orchid vault]

its names 'lovely.dll'

named*

i'll rename it to version.dll

[lean dune]

yeah that's the issue

it needs to be version.dll

[orchid vault]

ypu, that fixed it!

[dapper helm]

was there a download that had it named lovely.dll?

[orchid vault]

thanks yall

[dapper helm]

yw

[orchid vault]

wait shit nevermind it didnt

[dapper helm]

crying

[orchid vault]

the console came up upon launch, however still nothing installed

progress

[dapper helm]

steamodded source code folder inside mods folder yeah?

[orchid vault]

oooh i figured it out

i had lovely.toml in the wrong directory

moved it back to steamodded and it launched

[kindred swallow]

Coro is the champ!

[orchid vault]

yeah thanks coro

[dapper helm]

yw

[round ore]

sniper got me to ante 12

[strong swift]

coro carries fr

[dapper helm]

i just say "move this file here" and " https://discord.com/channels/1116389027176787968/1217867725532041369 "

[strong swift]

which also solves 90% of the problems here

[dapper helm]

sure

my god my brain is fried i meant to type true

[wary moth]

there are so many mods

[dapper helm]

someone pick a number 1-7

choosing mod deck to play

[gilded vortex]

7

[dapper helm]

philo deck from codex

[strong swift]

oh new coro pfp

[wary moth]

aa!!

[dapper helm]

its been this for a day or two

[strong swift]

i had no idea

[dapper helm]

lmao setting game volume to 0 with master volume on fucks it up

i don't even know where to start looking for the cause of this

i wonder which thing caused this

used the lucky card alchemical to complete the poker face cine card requirement and it crashed

[strong swift]

looks like oddityapi

i have no idea how i managed to get this guy while skipping every single blind and having 500+ jokers

[dapper helm]

a classic for any seasoned high card enthusiasts

[strong swift]

oh yeah that with chad goes crazy

and splash too

[dapper helm]

yup

i arranged them for the screenshot to show the combo

[rare shell]

did

did i fix the splash bug

i never tested if i did

[tacit crest]

Uuh do you have latest version of Reverie?

[dapper helm]

wait what

[tacit crest]

It had exact same bug and I thought I fixed it...

[dapper helm]

probably not on the latest reverie

[rare shell]

original behavior of highlander joker + splash would give the first card scored +20 chips for each scoring card

[dapper helm]

i'll update soon. if you fixed it you fixed it

[rare shell]

so it would end up with like +100 chips on a single card as opposed to the intended behavior, each scoring card getting +20 chips a piece

[dapper helm]

nope it works as intended

[rare shell]

whew

[normal palm]

Can i ask for feedback on a mod idea i have

[dapper helm]

it worked as intended last time i used it a few updates ago too if that matters

[dapper helm]

yes

[rare shell]

double phew

[normal palm]

Do these seem like, too insane lmao

[rare shell]

i havent touched its code asside from writing some code that i think fixes it

[dapper helm]

i like them, they seem mostly fine

[normal palm]

I really like the idea of the surprise card

[strong swift]

oh btw coro what blind am i missing? i'm assuming you have a similar modlist as me and i cant debug menu it

[normal palm]

But i cant tell if it’s amazing or terrible

[dapper helm]

a few things i'd personally prefer but aren't needed: surprise card highs and lows could be a bit less extreme, and everything bagel card is a pretty non-vanilla name. again tho those are personal preference

[rare shell]

is it bunco blind

[strong swift]

ohh its probably that

forgot that existed tbh

[normal palm]

The bagel wasnt gonna be the final name

[rare shell]

it got added like a day ago

[dapper helm]

sounds good

[normal palm]

Tbh idk if surprise is either

I was also gonna make a legendary joker that gave the surprise a 100% chance to x4

[exotic shadow]

It should also make missprint 100% chance for +21

[normal palm]

Would a legendary that maximized every chance in the game be really busted

[shy pivot]

yes?

i say question mark because just making sure

but like, luck based (1 in 3) to (3 in 3) 100%?

[normal palm]

Like busted even for a legendary i mean

[dapper helm]

depends on what chances are included but generally no

[shy pivot]

is anything as busted as perkeo?

[normal palm]

Yea

[exotic shadow]

Cavendish when 1000 in 1000 chance

[dapper helm]

it'd be closer to underpowered than overpowered i think

[normal palm]

4/4 wheel

Itd also make lucky cards really crazy tho

[exotic shadow]

I mean 2 oops all 6's would have a very similar effect for most things

[shy pivot]

wouldnt expire for me

[dapper helm]

canio tier where its very good but you need the few things that work or it does nothing

[shy pivot]

for a legendary, it'd be fine

[normal palm]

it’d work with the surprise cards too so with that i think itd be good

[normal palm]

They could be like, x0.33-x3

[dapper helm]

yeah

[normal palm]

I kind of wanted to make them really dumb and risky tho bc i was thinking about making some weird jokers thatd pair with them

[rare shell]

a legendary joker that guarantees chances wouldnt really be that strong enough to be a legendary but i wouldnt want it as a rare, either

i think a design where the purpose is to remove a mechanic from the game is kind of flawed

[normal palm]

isnt that what some of the legendaries do already tho

Like the one that disables bosses

[rare shell]

chicot is the only one i think that falls under this category

and chicot is not a highly regarded joker from what ive seen

[normal palm]

ic

[rare shell]

chicot's a little different to what i was getting at but thinking about it the reasons apply there too

[normal palm]

I mainly wanted to make it to pair with my silly enhancement tbh

[shy pivot]

i mean honestly

make it

[rare shell]

(i am guilty of this for the record)

[shy pivot]

why not

sometimes create first, balance later

[normal palm]

Ya

[rare shell]

my point wasnt about balance, its the design

like, 2 oops! all 6s is not game breaking at all

[normal palm]

I wanted to make a mod revolving around my surprise enhancement

[shy pivot]

oh mm, i'm not directly speaking towards a counterpoint towards if it's balanced or not

[rare shell]

i think you can accomplish trying to encourage your new enhancements in different ways

[shy pivot]

just sometimes you shouldn't need to put too much emphasis on people's feedback to create

[rare shell]

of course

they just requested feedback on the idea

:y

[shy pivot]

yeah, sorry. i'm trying to just appeal to their sense of creation

[rare shell]

BLEASE create

[shy pivot]

i know how that sounds like im arguing

[rare shell]

i just like having dumb discussions about game design and encouraging people with respectful constructive feedback

:garf

NO

RUINED

[normal palm]

Honestly i think a legendary that makes a certain enhanced card always do x4 is op enough lmao

[nocturne dagger]

guys anyone knows what causes this error?
im installing steammodded and this shows up if i open balatro

[rare shell]

sure, thats one way of doing it

[shy pivot]

i agree with lyman in that the scope of the design you're looking for is narrow

[normal palm]

I just wanted to make a theme tbh

[rare shell]

a little tangential but about chicot i wanted to add that i think its a little different

since the act of disabling the boss blind is encouraged by the game itself, and it itself is a mechanic, as evidenced by the vouchers for rerolling boss blinds and stuff like luchador

(once again, luchador, not that great but)

like yeah chicot is kind of boring but when he disables the blind that debuffs your kings on a baron build you're popping

nothing really "auto-wins" when you pair it with chicot, he just makes life easier

where something like, example design "your cards are considered wild cards" would be dreadful at base because its just one of those "oh.... i just pick up like 2 joker synergies and im on ante 14..."

inb4 "but then you run into the 4 suit debuff blinds back to back"

i think you could do really fun things though with the surprise enhancement

maybe have something that makes them always pay out at max value, that would be a neat reward for taking the risk

make them act like lucky cards... bunch of things

[normal palm]

Yeah I see what you mean about the joker that maxes odds

[rare shell]

like i said, its workable though!

so dont let that dissuade the Idea or theme

[normal palm]

That was the original idea abt the legendary

[rare shell]

im just a rambling old man

[normal palm]

Having those always give x4 would be nuts

[rare shell]

legendaries usually tend to be broader in scope, if they care about a specific card, its usually a group of related cards

like face cards

which you start with in your deck

compared to an enhancement you may or may not have on one of your cards

[normal palm]

That’s true but i think making it a rare would be too busted

So idk

[rare shell]

i think rare would be a good fit

strong but niche fits a lot of rare jokers

like the duo/tribe/etc cycle

[normal palm]

Bc i was gonna make them be about as rare as glass cards

I seee

[rare shell]

rarity isnt necessarily an indication of strength, but usually of how broad in scope it is

thats why oops! all 6s is an uncommon, since you arent guaranteed to be interacting with chance every run

[normal palm]

Also a joker idea i had was like, one could give anywhere from -10$ to 10$ when triggered

I just thought the idea of a double edged enhancement would be fun tbh

Like a super super double edged one

[shy pivot]

negative enhancements don't really have a lot of play right now in the modding scene. there are examples of jokers that dip you in the negatives so there's definitely room there as well

[normal palm]

Ill have to test them a lot because the surprise cards might not even be good at all

[normal palm]

Yeah that’s what I noticed when i was getting into it too

The pink seal idk about either

Ill also have to learn how to program these better bc i am a scrub atm

[rare shell]

its ok i didnt know much lua before i made my mod

[dapper helm]

fuck chicot frfr

[oblique berry]

we're bout to checkout morefluff on stream if anyone interested!

[dapper helm]

oh sick i am interested

[strong swift]

nice

[dapper helm]

@wanton rapids

[oblique berry]

what version of steamodded does this need to be

[dapper helm]

look look

[oblique berry]

because it crtashed on launch

[strong swift]

0.9.8

as pretty much always

[strong swift]

weird

[fickle elbow]

hello, what should i work on today subatomic, diced, or six hundred suits

[strong swift]

whichever you want

[fickle elbow]

can't decide

[oblique berry]

it looks like the colors file is failing

[strong swift]

weird

again

[dapper helm]

could you send the crash log?

[orchid vault]

the wait for reverie was worth it

I CLICKED ONE CARD AND BALATRO DIED LOL

LMAOOOOOOOO

[tacit crest]

Holy

[orchid vault]

it geniunely could not handle

the POWER

of that card

each of those jokers on the left side, the blueprints, brainstorms, and tribs in the middle was x32768 mult

plus like 10 retriggers, and those 6 jokers on the right activating once for each of those other jokers triggering

[worn pumice]

I'm a bit worried that the list of consumables become too long

[dapper helm]

there will be ui for it next steamodded update

[exotic shadow]

Truely an infinite loop moment.

[wary moth]

are achievements enabled if there arent any mods loaded?

[oblique berry]

ill load it tomorrow and send the screenshot. been at my desk for 6 hrs so headin to bed lol

[dapper helm]

sounds good, sleep well murph

[wispy canopy]

Hey so I'm just browsing the source code and I'm trying to find the specific code for each joker, where is that held?

[wanton rapids]

oh that's weird

[kindred swallow]

Card.lua at ln 2290 to ln 4061

[wispy canopy]

That is surprisingly simple

[kindred swallow]

And also Game.lua starting at ln 367 for values

[brisk seal]

will updating balatro break mods?

[kindred swallow]

Card tells you what the jokers do. Game tells you the values associated to the Joker like their rarity, price etc.

[wary moth]

hasnt for me

[kindred swallow]

So far, only the speedup mod from what I have seen

it seems like everything else is fine which was funny

[grand geode]

sounds like you're using the injected version of Steamodded, switch to Lovely

[cunning silo]

Consumable patch

@wanton rapids What do you think about a collab between codex and colors on our end?

[wanton rapids]

oh, sure?

[cunning silo]

An alchemical that automatically sets all color card cooldowns to 0

[wanton rapids]

to one below the trigger amount?

[cunning silo]

If we do that to one below, they will try by the end of the round right?

[wanton rapids]

mhm

[cunning silo]

Cool

[cursive compass]

oh THAT'S why i've been crashing

[rare shell]

https://github.com/spikeof2010/Jestobiology

its out chat

[cunning silo]

wait what????

it's out???

that's so cool

[rare shell]

i was wanting to do 15 but i figured itll sit in my folder for a while if i didnt push it out

plus yknow, bug reports are epic

dont mind me im just going to rip all your modified notmario template for my own nefarious purposes

[cunning silo]

have at it

[swift matrix]

oh shit, I didn't consider that

maybe not all my runs were destined to be RIP after all

oh well

[cursive compass]

i've been crashing whenever i try to exit my settings so i figure that must be it

[kindred swallow]

Yup. That's exactly what someone else said was happening to them

[rare shell]

https://spikeof2010.github.io/Jestobiology/

ok im nyooming

[fallow bramble]

Yooo lets go!

[wanton rapids]

i think i've found the issue, it should be ready for next time

[supple cypress]

did you have negative shop + only your jokers shop?

[lunar gale]

hey i want to get into modding where do i start

[sterile hornet]

graaahhh you fuck i thought my game was broken 😭

[grand geode]

<3

[sterile hornet]

hrm despite playing wildfrost i still dont know how to read

[wary moth]

use the lovely method to add steamodded (the balatro mod loader) to balatro https://discord.com/channels/1116389027176787968/1217867725532041369, then after you do that you can add some mods from #1209506514763522108 by downloading them and then extracting them into your balatro mods folder

[lunar gale]

So i'm currently trying to mod on mac and i'm having issues finding the balatro.love file. is it the same as the balatro.app one?

[wary moth]

im not sure

i dont have experience with mac, sorry

[lunar gale]

all good

has anyone gotten an error like this?

zsh: command not found: Starting

[exotic shadow]

Did you paste a line more than you should have?

[sturdy vessel]

does anyone know how to change the coloured bars here to a different color?

[lean dune]

by changing the values in G.C.SUITS

[sterile hornet]

hrm
redownloaded steammoded cause i say there was an update but it turns out it was just a typo (lmao)
but now it does this

interesting

[exotic shadow]

Try verifying file integrity in steam

[grand geode]

no it's normal

[sturdy vessel]

thank you, I figured it out. Do you know if there is a way to put the modifications to the globals.lua file into its own mod folder instead of editing the balatro.exe file?:

[lean dune]

yes, with Lovely and/or Steamodded

#1217867725532041369

[sterile hornet]

i tried reinstalling steammodded but now it keeps crashing eveytime i boot up the game

[supple cypress]

negative soul card i cant use cause it will be worse than the current jokers i have

[lean dune]

what's the crash message?

[sterile hornet]

there is none

freezes and poof gone

[lean dune]

uh

first check that steam is running

[sterile hornet]

it is running

[lean dune]

what mods do you have installed and how did you install steamodded?

[sterile hornet]

these and through the powershell exe

[lean dune]

try and see if removing JellyMod fixes anythinf

[sterile hornet]

finally got something

[strong swift]

your cheesyjokers is outdated

[sterile hornet]

i thought i just updated that one
interesting

[swift matrix]

There's a couple releases a day sometimes

[sterile hornet]

yea i noticed
they update so frequently lol

[gilded vortex]

GitBalatro integration to keep mods updated when

[sterile hornet]

ah
i now know why theautumncircus's 'the universe' got so stretched out

though im not sure it works like that

[carmine mortar]

That’s a big card

[sterile hornet]

also i think oddity api might not be working

cant really update that one

guess i just disable all oddities

still not working

[full stag]

is there a quick way to get link to mods' githubs? or is scrolling all the way up to the beginning of the thread the only way

[strong swift]

some bigger mods have pins put in place by mods, but yeah you do have to scroll constantly

[sterile hornet]

even if i delete those mods, these break

ah okay no prob

[supple cypress]

A lot of alchemical cards

[sterile hornet]

indeed

[supple cypress]

Why do all the textures have a high resolution and a low resolution version?

[lean dune]

pixel smoothing setting

[rare shell]

what's the point in having exactly the same textures double the size?

[shrewd stream]

I’ve seen people using a lovely thing instead of the steam injector thing how would I go about installing that

[rare shell]

oh yeah I actually installed it via lovely just today

[wary moth]

removes the need to do it via code i guess

[rare shell]

you'd need the lovely .dll file, just throw it in the game files

[shrewd stream]

Oh easy

[rare shell]

and then you download steamodded's source code and throw it in the mods folder

[wanton rapids]

scaling is jank!

[rare shell]

can't lua just... do magic... nearest neighbor scaling... stuff?

[gilded vortex]

I’ve also been learning how to inject with lovely

It’s pretty easy

[shrewd stream]

That’s honestly what I was thinking lol

[wanton rapids]

love2d does have nearest neighbour scaling

but there's an option for pixel art smoothing, and it would look horrible if the sprites were 1x

[rare shell]

but having the exact same sprites double the size is so weird

what about generating them at runtime?

[lean dune]

that sounds kinda slow

[supple cypress]

Not for a few hundred small textures

[rare shell]

I mean they're in a spritesheets anyways

there's like 20 sprites

in total
