[atomic eagle]

does anyone know where the randomsation happens for cards being drawn from the deck?

i have seen the functions draw_card and draw_from_deck_to_hand but i cant see where the code actually does like (randomly pick card from deck)

[lean dune]

I don't know what the function is called, I'd have to search for that as well. But the draw order is determined when the deck is shuffled at the end(?) of a round

[atomic eagle]

oooo that makes sense

[exotic dagger]

what if you add cards to it in the shop tho

[lean dune]

might be start of round or both

I'd have to look that up

[atomic eagle]

i see one in the function new_round

that points me in the right direction

ty

[fallow bramble]

I'm gonna shake you

[humble reef]

for wheel maybe split the card into quarters and in one of the quarters have each possible effect

[lean dune]

do we have a steamodded 1.0 user on Mac OS on right now? I need someone to test something

[humble reef]

maybe for death make the card grayscale

[white scarab]

Sure! I’d prefer if you credited me as well for the mod

[dapper helm]

maybe death could have a misprint-like effect where the right side of it looks like its starting to spread to the left with electricity visual effects like the tier 2 vouchers

[hushed inlet]

Absolutely!

[normal shoal]

thanks but I really have done nothing more than just merge 2 texture mods together. Most of the tarot were made by @tropic olive and the suit changing tarot made by @proven crypt. The only 4 I did myself were high priestess, emperor, temperance, and hermit

[dapper helm]

oh i see

[normal shoal]

I have zero photo editing skills lol

I'm thinking of making playing cards really big though. I noticed that even though the playing cards are big, I only look at top left corner because that's where the number+suit are. And it's tiny. I wish I could make it bigger while not looking terrible

[white scarab]

working on something cool

why is it still doing the shadow with shadow=false lmao

the shadow looks so bad

[exotic dagger]

replays? 😮

[neat widget]

this mod is called Deja Vu right

[strong swift]

i think it's gonna be a part of ankh

[round ore]

lmao

[polar schooner]

round score: no

[exotic dagger]

the round is done with your shit

[sturdy salmon]

really just said try winning now

[fallow frigate]

Anyone have a link or guide on how to get into modding on MacOs

[white scarab]

i could make .djv (Deja Vu) the file extension lmao

[neat widget]

but you're the spectral pack guy and deja vu is like

a thing happening again

thats a perfect name for a replay mod

[dapper helm]

its part of another mod

[white scarab]

yeah, I'm just integrating it with Ankh though

the replays are also designed for run verification... which is what Ankh is already for

[neat widget]

oh

no deja vu mod

:(

[white scarab]

nah deja vu will be the mod for stacking cards

🥚

here have two eggs

[sleek granite]

math do you know what the status is on joker retrigger api being available 🥚 🥚

[white scarab]

I've been waiting for it to be more stable

But also I haven't noticed any issues in a while

I could probably make a PR to Steamodded in a day or two

[sleek granite]

coollll cuz i wanna make a s&b stamp :)

[mild moat]

Not sure I'm making this one chat

[humble reef]

it's taking a while

[humble reef]

what stake is that??

[mild moat]

if im not mistaken it has all of these plus the base game stakes

Sapphire stake might not be implemented though

[white scarab]

it is

[mild moat]

Kk

[white scarab]

9-24 are all done

[mild moat]

I just didnt notice it

[white scarab]

this might look almost the same but now I'm not faking the name and description, it's actually reading from a replay file

[mild moat]

Pluto Amalgam

Oh no one of my 147 iterums are gonna be disabled

[restive sparrow]

Mods are wild wtf

[mild moat]

m

[white scarab]

ok now time to see how Steamodded added pages to UI and copy that

[grand geode]

:)

[white scarab]

hmm

[sleek granite]

looks good to me

[white scarab]

finally figured it out

[grand geode]

good job

[hardy brook]

Oh hey it's me. Crimson Heart

[hardy brook]

What's the deck and chip?

[white scarab]

this is the stake effects

[mild moat]

Ascendant Stake* Very Fair Deck

[white scarab]

Very Fair Deck: -2 hands, -2 discards, vouchers no longer appear in the shop

[hardy brook]

Ascendant stake? what?

[white scarab]

we added 24 new stakes (of which 16 are implemented)

[mild moat]

It'll be this when it's done

[hardy brook]

I will only be playing Stake 15

[timid arch]

random deck idea
White Elephant Deck - All shop items are free, all Jokers are Eternal, rerolls never decrease in price

[hardy brook]

ONLY STAKE 15

Btw had a dumb idea for "Negative" stakes

where they get easier

[white scarab]

good thing we have Stake API

[hardy brook]

What?

Where the heck is that?

[white scarab]

Steamodded 1.0

[sleek granite]

[hardy brook]

I have Steamodded 1.0

I swear we need documentation

What the heck can I do in 1.0

[white scarab]

https://github.com/MathIsFun0/Cryptid/blob/main/Items/Stakes.lua
It'll probably be faster to just look at what I did

for _, v in pairs(self.items) do
                if v.object_type == "Stake" then
                    v.sticker_pos = v.pos
                    v.sticker_atlas = "sticker"
                    local words = {}
                    words[1], words[2] = v.loc_txt.name:match("(%w+)(.+)")
                    local stakeName = words[1]
                    v.loc_txt = {description = v.loc_txt}
                    v.loc_txt.sticker = {
                        name = stakeName.." Sticker",
                        text = {
                            "Used this Joker",
                            "to win on {C:attention}"..stakeName,
                            "{C:attention}Stake{} difficulty"
                        }
                    }
                end
            end

this part is very important

[sleek granite]

no its not my new stamp emotes are way more important /s

[hardy brook]

nuh uh

[white scarab]

[hardy brook]

Half the blank jokers of Ortalab being added in are in

[sleek granite]

ortega lab

[white scarab]

Balagetro

[hardy brook]

The mexican food product?

[sleek granite]

idk

anyway here's ingame

[hardy brook]

So yeah... what can Steamodded 1.0 do now?

[cunning silo]

Yesss look at vampire

So adorable

[sleek granite]

jokers, consumables, tags, stakes, consumable types, suits, ranks, seals, vouchers, backs (decks),

did i miss anything

[cunning silo]

Sounds

[sleek granite]

oh yeah atlases/sounds too

i wasnt countin' like nitty-gritty

[cunning silo]

Makes sense

I still remember the time we didn’t have tarots

[sleek granite]

if anyone has any actual idea what the vampire stamp should do btw im all ears i got nothin

[white scarab]

gradient API when

after I finish Ankh v1.1.0 I'll probably add it if nobody's done it yet

[hardy brook]

I swear we need a Shader creator

[sleek granite]

theres like three people around here that know how to shader

[cerulean flare]

if the joker with vampire stamp gets an edition, remove it and let the stamp gain X0.5

[dusky wolf]

Hey everyone 🙂 I was wondering if anyone can help me with installing mods 😞 I tried a few different things that didn't work, and I don't want to download sketchy files if I don't need to, would appreciate some thorough guidance if someone had an idea 🙂 much appreciated

[icy smelt]

Hey I will try to help you with the best I can give

https://github.com/Steamopollys/steamodded/releases

When you launch the injector your command prompt should launch himself installing the mod folder to your Balatro

Then when you launch Balatro you should have a new button at the very right with « mods »

[gilded vortex]

use the lovely method

[icy smelt]

(What is the lovely method btw ?)

[gilded vortex]

https://discord.com/channels/1116389027176787968/1217867725532041369

It will be required starting from Steamodded 1.0 anyways

[icy smelt]

Can it help me with my ||mf|| soul_pos problem and all ?

[gilded vortex]

Idk how to do it for vanilla Jokers but you need the base and soul sprites to be in the same atlas then pass the position of each sprite via the position coordinates

[icy smelt]

… 💀

🏳️

Ff

Do I need to take ownership of my joker to do so ? (In my mod lua file)

[dusky wolf]

It didn't come up with the button, I downloaded and launched the injector 😦 might be missing a step

[icy smelt]

When you inject what the command prompt say ? (Maybe try the Victin method he is better in this than me)

[dusky wolf]

It's weird, every time I try to open the zip file it says the file is in use by another process then deletes the file

[icy smelt]

Bizarre cette histoire

[gilded vortex]

I think you should

[exotic dagger]

I see 4 new stamps, what do those do

[sleek granite]

vampire is undecided, s&b will be "retrigger this joker once" when joker retrigger api gets in, hiker is probably going to give permaboosts to playing cards just undecided on the exact mechanic, and banann is like X1.5 Mult but 1 in 10 chance the stamp falls off at end of round

[exotic dagger]

Heh

Retriggering jokers will be nice

[proven crypt]

i wanna try theming the death tarot, but i dont know what colors to use

[west hill]

Can’t you already retrigger jokers?

[exotic dagger]

I don’t think there’s anything that does that in the base game

Only jokers that retrigger playing cards

[fallow bramble]

Cant you make the joker with seb stamp blueprint itself once?

[carmine mortar]

Vamp Stamp

[carmine mortar]

What would Vamp Stamp do?

Remove Joker editions and buff ability values, like x0.2 per time an edition is removed?

[gilded vortex]

Again, wouldn’t work with modded Jokers, and Joker editions are so rare this is very useless

[carmine mortar]

Why don’t these work with modded joker’s again

[carmine mortar]

Stanp when?

[gilded vortex]

Have you tried to mod a Joker?

[carmine mortar]

No

Not exactly the most proficient modder

[gilded vortex]

Have you programmed?

[carmine mortar]

I don’t even have a computer

[gilded vortex]

People code from their phones but in any case

There’s no way to know what variables correspond to a value you’d want to increase like this

You could increase values arbitrarily but that introduces unpredictable behaviour

Now your Invisible Joker takes 2.4 Rounds to activate

Hanging Chad repeats the first card 2.4 times

[carmine mortar]

Square joker needs 2.4 cards to scale

Yeah I think I get it

[gilded vortex]

Maybe a modded Joker could repeat the (1.2)-th card 2.4 times

There’s also some values which could be missed

I think Erosion and Blue Joker wouldn’t work

But I don’t remember how they’re coded

(Since they’re vanilla you could hardcode them in, but it’s the principle)

[gilded vortex]

To be more specific, the Jokers have a list of numbers and a list of instructions, and they’re separate. And AFAIK there’s no way to read the instructions to learn what the list of numbers means because it can contain arbitrary instructions

[round ore]

Hi anyone knows if theres a way to manually set the best hand played stat?:( Currently the gmae crashes for me and I can't play any hand

[icy smelt]

What do i need to do after the take ownership ? Do i need to write all the option ? (cost,rarity px, py...)

[gilded vortex]

Only the ones you want to change AFAIK

[icy smelt]

What is AFAIK ?

[polar schooner]

"as far as I know"

[icy smelt]

thanks

[icy smelt]

also i try to install love but there is no version.dll

(Also I’m sorry it’s my first time modding a game so I don’t know how it work )

[lean dune]

you need to download the release, which has version.dll inside

[warm tide]

hello

imma ask a thingy

[icy smelt]

know that i am in Alpha 1.0.0 nothing work

how long does a successful run usually take you? (excluding endless)

[icy smelt]

idk

25 min ?

[raw pewter]

Hi !
I installed steamodded and now when I open Balatro, this is what happens.
Can you help me ?

[lean dune]

verify game files on steam and reinstall steamodded

you have 2 installations of steamodded

[raw pewter]

oh ok thanks im gonna see that

[dapper helm]

everyone

[exotic dagger]

i would not cause of the background of the cards

especially the yellow suit is pain to look at

[polar schooner]

yeah that yellow on yellow is barely visible

[lean dune]

ew

who needs low contrast tbh

the other one is alright imo

[sleek granite]

's all trash

[lean dune]

no

[sleek granite]

insert the same thing I said in #🃏・off-topic

[lean dune]

lmao

[fallow arrow]

love the beautiful crashs like this

[sleek granite]

idek what to do

changin coins from yellow is just wrong

[dapper helm]

would you like a suggestion to try or are u gonna figure it out urself?

[sleek granite]

im gonna sleep and hope the world ends while im asleep

[dapper helm]

🙏

[fallow arrow]

coins are yellow or silver typically

[dapper helm]

the coin suit is yellow

[sleek granite]

but ig if sm1 actually smart has an idea, this bumbling idiot would accept

[dapper helm]

i'll make a proof of concept to make sure i am not being a bumbling idiot

[polar schooner]

honestly just put a black outline around the yellow of the coins

[dapper helm]

is this idea anything? too subtle?

[raw pewter]

Hiii
I managed to install steamodded but when I launched the game it told me that the file Enhancers.png did not exist. So I went to create it myself without knowing what it was supposed to be and I put a png half invisible and half white and here is what it showed me.
Overall, because of Steamodded I lack textures of the game 😅
Someone can help me ?

[carmine mortar]

Rectangle deck

[lean dune]

... wtf

that looks like a mod tried to register a sprite but forgot to specify the path to itself

what mods do you have installed?

[raw pewter]

I think it used to do that to me when I had only one mode (the dice deck) but I don’t think it’s due to it

[lean dune]

could be any mod that registers sprites

[raw pewter]

When I install it, in the steamodded files, after "assets" nothing existed (neither "2x" nor Enhencers.png)

[raw pewter]

nothing new

maybe I should try to reinstall everything

[lean dune]

it's not meant to be there is the issue

steamodded 0.9.8 does not have assets of its own

[raw pewter]

hmm ok ok
So what am I suppose to do ? I can't launch the game without these files
Install an other version of steamodded ?

[gilded vortex]

If a mod wants to use these files, the mod should distribute them

[raw pewter]

ok I try to delete all my mod and it work
So I thinks it was one of them who made that bug

Thanks for your help !

[normal shoal]

Huh I didn't know that number+ suit goes on top of enhancer (wild card). I guess I have to come up with another idea for wild card then

yeah so i just zoomed in on the original version and the suit actually goes on top of the wild card thingy. I guess i just never noticed it

what happened to my erratic deck run

[fallow arrow]

okay, are there any good save editors so I can just take out the bugged cards in my deck?

[haughty hinge]

i mean you should be able to find it in the file(it's gonna take a long ass time tho) and delete it

i haven't tried that yet

[surreal shadow]

I can't download another mod...

How can I download another mod?

[dapper helm]

show mod folder

[surreal shadow]

i can't find it

[wispy canopy]

Press win + R, type %appdata%, find balatro, should be there

[surreal shadow]

no

[woeful finch]

weird

mod issues i assume but idk

[surreal shadow]

Better pciture

But I had this card last game

[woeful finch]

i see

yeah idk

enjoy the bug idk

[surreal shadow]

yeah, I'm gaining a lot of mult on my cards

[random silo]

am i cooking (roblox themed balatro mod concept) (also the gears are consumables able to be used a certain amount of times and are replenished at the end of an ante, but cant be sold, so they must either be destroyed by a joker or take up a consumable slot forever)

did kind of screw myself over with this because i dont know how to add consumable types lol

[lean dune]

steamodded 1.0 supports a lot of what you need for this out of the box

there's a consumable type API + the ability to not destroy consumables on use

can't defuse something that's not fused

Energy Fuser?

A joker that needs another

i like this idea

[gilded vortex]

Fusion Mod compat

[eager maple]

Yeah

the fuser gives base mult or other thing

and the defuser gives base chips and other thing

and they can fuse with other jokers

I think I broke the game

I receive money instead of spending it

[woeful finch]

the joker is so bad they give you money for taking it

[surreal shadow]

My screen lags a lot

Idk why

[woeful finch]

i guess it’s the 397 joker cards constantly floating around

[sturdy salmon]

least broken modded balatro run

[surreal shadow]

It's the mika mod

[sturdy salmon]

its really funny the game is trying to pawn off the bad jokers on you though

[surreal shadow]

No, every joker

Bruh

Should make it slightly more bearable

[surreal shadow]

ty, I needed it

20 minutes for 10 cards and my hand size is 24

• all the jokers

[quiet latch]

When I select a blind or skip a blind the game crashes, in the log file it says "file not found: main.lua: No such file or directory", I have reinstalled, verifyed the files, reinstalled lovely and steamodded but it still crashes.
(log file is attached)

[oblique berry]

what mod?

[surreal shadow]

Cheese jokers and Mika

[oblique berry]

[surreal shadow]

Only with the cards I've e21 and I'm not done with the cards

• my 120k chips and x50² mult

And other things (hologram is at x21)

[tacit crest]

It seems like a JellyMod issue and that mod is really outdated and broken

[quiet latch]

deleting that mod fixed it. thank you

[surreal shadow]

1 card left!!! already e24

[quiet latch]

where can I find the cheese jokers mod, I don't see it in the thread or on github

nvm

[surreal shadow]

Bruh, I got e88!!! e12 more and I would've got naneinf (I think)

[exotic dagger]

naneinf is at e308

[surreal shadow]

oh

never mind

I was far from it

[eager maple]

yay, new art

Energy Core

[sturdy canyon]

yayaya

#1230341696957448222 mod's awesome

[exotic dagger]

but that's donkey kong, not mario

[neat widget]

Whaat the fuck

that is so sick

[rare shell]

hi gang

[sleek granite]

hi man

[autumn yew]

Hmm.
I want to add a bit of text on top of cards when they draw inside the View Deck screen.
I've located the necessary values to know when that screen is happening, but I don't know how to just say "draw this string plz"

I want to add a +Chips right onto the card without having to hover over it to see the bonus from Hiker

[gilded vortex]

There was a mod that added notation to vanilla Jokers about their current statistics

I think it used something similar to the Sell/Use UI

You can also look up how the game displays the text to view the deck or Blind warnings ("Hand will not score")

[autumn yew]

yeah that looks like this.

                self.boss_warning_text = UIBox{
                    definition = 
                      {n=G.UIT.ROOT, config = {align = 'cm', colour = G.C.CLEAR, padding = 0.2}, nodes={
                        {n=G.UIT.R, config = {align = 'cm', maxw = 1}, nodes={
                            {n=G.UIT.O, config={object = DynaText({scale = 0.7, string = localize('ph_unscored_hand'), maxw = 9, colours = {G.C.WHITE},float = true, shadow = true, silent = true, pop_in = 0, pop_in_rate = 6})}},
                        }},
                        {n=G.UIT.R, config = {align = 'cm', maxw = 1}, nodes={
                            {n=G.UIT.O, config={object = DynaText({scale = 0.6, string = G.GAME.blind:get_loc_debuff_text(), maxw = 9, colours = {G.C.WHITE},float = true, shadow = true, silent = true, pop_in = 0, pop_in_rate = 6})}},
                        }}
                    }}, 
                    config = {
                        align = 'cm',
                        offset ={x=0,y=-3.1}, 
                        major = G.play,
                      }
                  }```

which is... a lot

I found the buy/sell/use hunk and tried it already and just got errors about not finding FRAMES in ui.lua:284

[gilded vortex]

do you have any questions about it

[autumn yew]

mostly it's trying to migrate this into Card.lua
I figure I need to do things in draw()

[autumn yew]

because yeah, copying this straight over gives attempted to index a nil value FRAMES at ui.lua:284

[round ore]

Can i somehow mod/modify files to have higher chance for negatives, polychromes, foils and so on? i want to do goofy stuff and not break game entirely. I know already u can open exe with rar and get to code but i dont know where to start from there

[gilded vortex]

I think that would do it every frame. If you just create the UIBox somewhere else I image it has its own draw function or whatever takes care of making the boss_warning_text work

[autumn yew]

search all files (Notepad++ find in files in folder...) for "negative"

[gilded vortex]

Look up set_edition

you can hook it and instead return a result however you wish

[gilded vortex]

Idk much how UIBoxes work, but there's a root note centered, offset upwards, and connected to G.play in some way, and that containts two row nodes each with an object node to hold a DynaText object

You may want normal text objects instead of DynaText

Though keep in mind each color is its own G.UIT.T

and each line is its own row

Normally I see the rows organized into columns but this doesn't have them

I myself plan to do something similar but using icons instead of text

Kinda like Stickers/Stamps/Seals/etc. but to just give an estimate

also other purposes maybe

[autumn yew]

drawing images over top is hekkin' easy

I did joker stake stickers in the collection in like an hour
https://steamcommunity.com/app/2379780/discussions/0/4308327178401860622/?tscn=1709808515#c4293690852336516667

[gilded vortex]

I don't really want to do the Stake Stickers, I say Stickers like their own type of modifier

Except stackable

[autumn yew]

sure, sure. I just mean that it'd basically be the same thing.

[gilded vortex]

I just haven't looked into how to draw more stuff on top of cards

[autumn yew]

I mean, its 95% card.sticker = [whatever]

the [whatever] is the reference to the sprite

[autumn yew]

but yeah, I have no idea how to get past this

[gilded vortex]

Find out where and why FRAMES is being called

[autumn yew]

I did, I have no idea what it's trying to do and why the existing text objects work without it

function UIBox:draw() -- line 183
    if self.FRAME.DRAW >= G.FRAMES.DRAW and not G.OVERLAY_TUTORIAL then return end
    self.FRAME.DRAW = G.FRAMES.DRAW

    for k, v in pairs(self.children) do
        if k ~= 'h_popup' and k ~= 'alert' then v:draw() end
    end

    if self.states.visible then
        add_to_drawhash(self)
        self.UIRoot:draw_self()
        self.UIRoot:draw_children()
        for k, v in ipairs(self.draw_layers) do
            if v.draw_self then v:draw_self() else v:draw() end
            if v.draw_children then v:draw_children() end
        end
    end

    if self.children.alert then self.children.alert:draw() end

    self:draw_boundingrect()
end```

[west hill]

You can replace the hard coded values in poll_edition

[autumn yew]

so I try this:

                    self.extra_chips_text = UIBox{
                        FRAME = {
                            DRAW = 0
                        },```
and it throws the *same error*

[gilded vortex]

Try giving your UIBox a root

[gilded vortex]

but they do have it

[autumn yew]

not anywhere that's specified outside of movable.lua

[gilded vortex]

ui inherits from movable which inherits from node

[round ore]

like this? only adding () and multiplying it by 3?

[autumn yew]

Ok, and that helps....how?

[gilded vortex]

If you don't find where ui defines FRAME, you can search where its parent does so

[autumn yew]

that's every single reference.

[gilded vortex]

and when you find that, you can understand what's going wrong that your object doesn't have FRAME

[gilded vortex]

then the definition is among them

[autumn yew]

the one in node.lua, which should be called automatically when I construct the UIBox

its literally in the constructor

[gilded vortex]

Maybe you're passing the wrong arguments to the constructor and it's failing to construct the object properly

It just happens that the first failure point is FRAME

[autumn yew]

but I'm copy-pasting a known working constructor call

[gilded vortex]

Does the working call reference any local variables or somesuch

It could reference a global that isn't defined at the time you call it elsewhere too

[autumn yew]

the one for the non-scoring hand only references the reason why the hand is non-scoring and replacing that function call with hard coded text is trivial

[gilded vortex]

What is your version of the code

[autumn yew]

self.extra_chips_text = UIBox{
    definition = 
      {n=G.UIT.ROOT, config = {align = 'cm', colour = G.C.CLEAR, padding = 0.2}, nodes={
        {n=G.UIT.R, config = {align = 'cm', maxw = 1}, nodes={
            {n=G.UIT.O, config={object = DynaText({scale = 0.7, string = '+5 Chips', maxw = 9, colours = {G.C.WHITE},float = true, shadow = true, silent = true, pop_in = 0, pop_in_rate = 6})}},
        }},
        {n=G.UIT.R, config = {align = 'cm', maxw = 1}, nodes={
            {n=G.UIT.O, config={object = DynaText({scale = 0.6, string = '+5 Chips', maxw = 9, colours = {G.C.WHITE},float = true, shadow = true, silent = true, pop_in = 0, pop_in_rate = 6})}},
        }}
    }}, 
    config = {
        align = 'cm',
        offset ={x=0,y=-3.1}, 
        major = G.play,
      }
  }```

the only change was replacing string = localize('ph_unscored_hand') with string = '+5 Chips'

[gilded vortex]

where is this defined

[autumn yew]

right now it's inside Card:draw(layer) which is at least somewhat comparable to Game:update(dt) for the unscored hand.

[gilded vortex]

maybe it isn't?

Maybe the timing each is executed doesn't work out?

[autumn yew]

Lets see here, lets have some fun. Lets move the construction of this UI Box right up into the constructor of Card, for shits and giggles.
Now the text draws all the time, no matter what, with no care in the world as to when the card itself is being drawn. i.e. restricting it to the View Deck screen.
oh and if I tell it to draw() during the View Deck screen, it throws a FRAME nil value error again.

[gilded vortex]

Actually, reading more closely the issue is that G.FRAMES is nil

So the issue is that G doesn't have FRAMES, rather than self, which would be the UIBox

[autumn yew]

that is simultaneously helpful and unhelpful at the same time X)

[gilded vortex]

Is your game crashing on load

[autumn yew]

no

it crashes when I click "view deck"

[autumn yew]

even in this state

the view deck bit being because of this:

if self.ability.set == 'Default' and (self.area and self.area.config.view_deck) and self.ability.perma_bonus > 0 then
    self.extra_chips_text.draw(layer)
end```

where the extra_chips_text = ... being in Card:init()

[gilded vortex]

Then G.FRAMES should've been defined

Maybe it's emptied at some point, but I couldn't find it

If it is, I could guess it's due to state changes or the game being paused while the deck view is active

[autumn yew]

I agree. Also have a quick gif

ergo, wanting to draw text in the view deck screen, and not knowing how

[gilded vortex]

I mean, AFAIK when you click the view deck screen while a Boss Blind's warning is on screen, the warning is removed

So maybe the message isn't cleaned up properly

[autumn yew]

While true, I'm not actually using the boss warning object

[gilded vortex]

Exactly

[autumn yew]

There is nothing about what I've tried that indicates to me that it shouldn't work and yet it doesn't

[gilded vortex]

I mean, clearly it doesn't work

[autumn yew]

clearly, but the why is not apparent

[gilded vortex]

Do you set self.extra_chip_text.attention_text = true?

[autumn yew]

no, but FWIW I don't want screen-space-overlays here

mockup:

[gilded vortex]

Try setting it and see if it crashes

Also, this should've been discussed in #💻・modding-dev

[autumn yew]

I checked to see what channel was the right one and found little guidance, so... oops?

[autumn yew]

at what point? after construction? on viewing the full deck?

[gilded vortex]

the same way the boss blind message does

immediately after creating it

[autumn yew]

no change in behavior

[gilded vortex]

hmmm looking at it again if the state isn't SELECTING_HAND the UIBox is destroyed

maybe viewing the deck changes the state which causes something else to fail

[hearty wedge]

Is there a reason that, in the "blank_joker_template" the first 4 columns are 71px wide but the last column is only 70px wide?

I guess it would just be dead space on the right anyway, but it seems centering may get off for displaying jokers in the last column?

[gilded vortex]

Maybe it's related to

if G.VIEWING_DECK and (self==G.deck or self==G.hand or self==G.play) then return end
``` in `CardArea:draw`?

[autumn yew]

not sure, noodling off to spread liber-tea for a bit, trying some other thing as well to at least anchor the text TO the card

well it didn't crash, but also didn't draw anything

partial(?) success?

KNOW WHAT I DID DIFFERENT? Almost nothing

self.children.extra_chips_text = UIBox{

[oblique berry]

Can someone help me out. Which mod has huge joker?

[calm vessel]

Morefluff i think

[sturdy salmon]

Yeah that's more fluff

[oblique berry]

ty ty

oh shoot

It was the huge joker but it had the reshuffled texture lol

[sleek granite]

reshuffed 😔

[oblique berry]

why 😔 ?

[sleek granite]

idk i just dont find repainted-esque stuff funny ig

[oblique berry]

i love reshuffled

[autumn yew]

Did you know that the opening animation is runtime rendered?

oops all +5 chips

[sleek granite]

i knew that from seeing my minor arcana cards in the mix

i should probably figure out how to make them not look terrible

[autumn yew]

heh.

[sleek granite]

refrance

[autumn yew]

nice

[sleek granite]

they look awful :s

i dont just wanna have boring white cards :$

[autumn yew]

riddle me this, Batman.
This works:

if self.ability.set == 'Default' and (self.area and self.area.config.view_deck) and self.ability.perma_bonus > 0 and self.children.extra_chips_text then
    for k, v in pairs(self.children) do
        if k == 'extra_chips_text' then v:draw() end
    end
end

This does not:

if self.ability.set == 'Default' and (self.area and self.area.config.view_deck) and self.ability.perma_bonus > 0 and self.children.extra_chips_text then
    self.children.extra_chips_text.draw()
end

(the if-statement is the same in both, the difference is whether I call directly or loop over children)

[sleek granite]

self.children.extra_chips_text__:__draw()

[autumn yew]

ooh

I am a smort

I don't do Lua much, I use C# on a daily basis, so syntax inertia

Man it looks so good~
Now to make the text dymanic with the correct value

[sleek granite]

if it helps, obj:func() is the same as obj.func(obj)

[autumn yew]

yeah, its the finger memory of pressing buttons

[sleek granite]

(whats this for btw)

[autumn yew]

I want to put the Hiker bonus chips visible on the deck view to get a quick-glance overview of the cards that've been buffed.

[sleek granite]

oh

[autumn yew]

eg, I had no idea ALL of my queens of diamonds had been played

[sleek granite]

me, with my permaboosts library for permamult, permaxmult, permahmult, and permahxmult

itd be interesting to see it with all that on it lol

(no its not out, i have submitted it for inclusion in a different mod tho :) )

[autumn yew]

hahaha

[kindred swallow]

I think they look fine.

[tired bridge]

what is the mod called that lets you use infinite jokers?

[autumn yew]

Ok then... how would I go about getting a reference to this value from here?
(honestly, I don't care where I store the variable, as long as I can reference it from the text spot and from the card so I can update it)

[sleek granite]

coins is godawful

[kindred swallow]

...yeaahhh that one is a little bad because they blend in, but in general I think the yellow cards and the other colors are pretty good

[sleek granite]

:(

[kindred swallow]

Don't feel bad. Like I said they look good overall

Have you considered trying a different gradient range without the darkest color or one with just a solid color of the lightest one you currently use?

The more I look at them they look better. Could try some different things but I think they're good to go as is. I like em ❤️

[white scarab]

don't set the width of a CardArea to 0

[autumn yew]

hahaha

[sleek granite]

for the actual gradient or the dithering

[tired bridge]

what is the mod called that lets you use infinite jokers?

[kindred swallow]

Hmmm maybe minimize this space and let the dithering reach the edge of the card more, increasing the overall usage of the middle color and stuff. Or maybe just use the top color and make it solid (which I imagine is not the effect you want but sometimes something simple is the answer)

[sleek granite]

:$

but i want them to look like tarot cards

boo

[kindred swallow]

I sorry

[cunning silo]

ah yes

3.4 hand size

[sleek granite]

feder how should i make minor arcana not look terribad

[kindred swallow]

What exactly about the coins is making you think that? Like is it just blending in to much?

[sleek granite]

i guess

idk i know to defer to other ppls judgment cuz obv i can tell what its sposed to be cuz i made it and the other day ppl were sayin they look bad

[kindred swallow]

Maybe they're just saying that because they do look different than typical playing cards. They're not used to them so it's a little jarring. Like I said the more I look at them the more I think they're better than first impressions.

[rare shell]

you could try by making the start and the end of the gradient shorter

so the ends of the cards are occupied more by solid color

[kindred swallow]

Fuck around and find out I guess. Keep a copy off to the side and just tweak it here and there and see what feels right

I'm excited to play with them because they caught my attention when you first showed them

I'll shut up now

[sleek granite]

idk
at least the code for making the minor arcana have a custom center sprite led to the spirograph watermarks for aspect suits

[sleek granite]

how do u mean "shorter"

Thanks, missed this part

seems legit to me

[grave radish]

Hey guys, quick question; when making new cards, do they have to be in the same pixelated art style, or is it possible to make non-pixelated ones? (aka can I use already drawn images or do I have to have some new ones drawn for the game)

[gilded vortex]

AFAIK it can be anything

Although maybe you'd need to rescale it

The game already has rescaling logic so you would need to change it

[grave radish]

Right, I see; thanks ^^

Another question actually; are there mods that dont disable things like achievements etc?

Like, I imagine you cant make progress in the game with mods that add jokers for example; but, what about GUI mods, like replacing the cursor; could that work differently?

[grave radish]

....Huh; so that means you actually can just download like the better RNG mod, and then unlock all achievements using that?

[white scarab]

hmm

[full grove]

hello, I have no affiliation with Balatro but I wanted to talk to a user that I know is on here about using tools they work, but for another game (Hades II), this is just a post stating my intentions in case something looks suspicious

specifically I wanna set up a debugger on Hades II's lua

additionally, if anyone knows about the inner workings of lovely patches, in the sense of how they can be ported to a totally different lua runtime and loader, please let me know

[gilded vortex]

I’d ask @umbral pilot but I vaguely recall hearing that lovely should work with any Lua game? But Idk

[lean dune]

it should be easily portable to any LOVE2D game

[full grove]

it's not LOVE2D

it just has a lua environment

[lean dune]

for other engines, it probably won't work out of the box

[full grove]

yes, that's why I asked for someone who knows the details

that way we can go and implement them

Hades II ships with the PDB and we have a loader that hooks stuff there and extends the lua environment by exposing more stuff

so forking or porting some parts of lovely is possible, but I don't know how much effort or how useful it'll be

[lean dune]

yeah you're best off talking to metherul for that - you can have a look around the source in the meantime

I'd guess it highly depends on love's structure, so I'm not sure how reasonable a direct port would be

[full grove]

I am not really looking for a direct port

I'd honestly rather just taking the patching implementation and wrapping it in a new interface that the existing plugins can use

however that can be done

we don't need patches that often, as we have an elaborate system of wrapping that we used in Hades 1 (it's like monomod's hooks, but we can't do the equivalent of IL hooks)

so this is a nice to have thing for the few mods that would need it

[lean dune]

I see

[full grove]

because in Hades 1 nobody was around to make a loader with any meat to it since they changed it from MonoGame to a native C++ thing on the 1.0 release, so we made do with only doing things within the limited scope of that lua environment.

them changing the engine is well known because it was written about by The Forge and is part of Supergiant Games' documentary

[surreal shadow]

forever?

[real shale]

Yo does modding break the restrictions in the challenge runs? Jokers are showing up that should be restricted for me

I want achievement reneabler mod

Do I just have to place it in mod folder?

So I download the raw file

Yay, ty

Is there a mod to disable some mods?

[lean dune]

steamodded 1.0 has this built in, not possible on 0.9.8 though

1.0.0f?

fair

1.0.0-ALPHA-MMDDx

current is 0528a, for example

[surreal shadow]

is there a mod to make negative soul cards?

[surreal shadow]

how?

[white scarab]

it's possible in Cryptid with a deck that lets you get any item in the shop

[gilded vortex]

Do you need to

[lean dune]

1.0 is unreleased, you can always find the current in-dev state on the main branch on github - note that mods that aren't updated to 1.0 are incompatible with it

[surreal shadow]

I want to disable some mods

[gilded vortex]

Just move them to another folder

What’s more likely to happen is that the mods aren’t up to date to 1.0 anyways

[surreal shadow]

👍

[lean dune]

yeah you'd end up disabling all your mods lmao

[surreal shadow]

Is another folder in balatro good?

Ok

That's exactly the name I gave it

I'll have to use one of my 63 mr.bones

They didn't trigger

I died, without knowing what shaky jupiter does

[oblique berry]

giga modded balatro vid just dropped with a bunch of mods from here if anyone wants to check it out. Had a blast, cant wait to add more.

[lean dune]

looks like madness

[oblique berry]

it was chaos and i loved it. it got more unhinged later when i added more but died so quickly on those runs

[surreal shadow]

My run too, just died

[surreal shadow]

.

[lean dune]

truly mad

[surreal shadow]

BUT the game didn't crashed

[white scarab]

When Steamodded 1.0 releases there’s gotta be a crazy modpack that gets created

[real hamlet]

Is there a mod that always makes the first tag to be a coupon? I can't be the only one who restarts over and over again until I get it 🙂

[white scarab]

You can achieve this with https://discord.com/channels/1116389027176787968/1242974974701080617

[surreal shadow]

bruh

[real hamlet]

Awesome! thx

[oblique berry]

I think im gonna start doing a segement where we just add a mod or two every week and just call it mod madness or something. Just pure chaos

[quiet latch]

Game crashes whenever selecting a deck, at the bottom of the log file it says "2024-05-29 09:49:04 :: ERROR :: StackTrace :: Oops! The game crashed"
(log file attached)

[exotic dagger]

who's paul

[quiet latch]

nvm, I guess the "legendary deck" mod is outdated

[surreal shadow]

idk

Uhm, I reached nan but it doesn't count as a score

[grand geode]

remind me to fix mystblinds tomorrow

[surreal shadow]

What mod did you make?

[white scarab]

They made mystblinds…

[oblique berry]

[karmic fulcrum]

Chat, is it clear enough ?

(it's a playing card)

[oblique berry]

maybe "held in hand" since thats the language on mime and other in hand abilities?

[sterile hornet]

typo
rettriger
sorry thats like the first thing i noticed

wait
joker deck noway

[karmic fulcrum]

Damn my bad thx

[karmic fulcrum]

Coming soon

https://discord.com/channels/1116389027176787968/1242740571790118932

[grand geode]

😭

[karmic fulcrum]

Better ?

[grand geode]

scoring... when scored?

[karmic fulcrum]

Yeah I know that's why I'm asking

[grand geode]

remove the first scoring

[karmic fulcrum]

Retrigger all scoring face cards when this card is scoring or held in hand

[grand geode]

oh

[karmic fulcrum]

Well it's not retriggering every face card on board

[grand geode]

very confusing

[karmic fulcrum]

I know

[grand geode]

yeah should include "this card" for clarification

[lean dune]

it's retriggering face cards when scored, so it doesn't retrigger non-scoring ones

[grand geode]

also why would you ever play this if it can proc in hand

[oblique berry]

from what im gathering its scoring face cards whether played or not as long as that card is in hand correct?

[surreal shadow]

?

[grand geode]

[retrigger scoring face cards] [if snb is (played or in hand)]

[surreal shadow]

I broke the game (again)

I can buy as many jokers I want

[exotic dagger]

that's just called having money

[thorn hamlet]

Are mods developped for steamodded 0.9.8 compatible with steamodded 1.0.0 ?

thx !

[karmic fulcrum]

Ok I'll try something

[pine sparrow]

now i am just a nerd but do you guys think a digimon or yugioh focused mod would be possibe

thing is im no programmer but honestly think itd be awesome if someone did it after all if slay the spire has mods inspired and you guys are skilled and dtermined enough to make mario there is a chance someone can

[quiet latch]

how do I fix this. Whenever I save a run and continue later, it removes everything, all jokers, cards, levels, etc. I have to fully reset the run

[sturdy canyon]

Jimbo's evil fucked up curse

[quiet latch]

?

[gilded vortex]

what mods do you have

[gilded vortex]

Try removing half the mods, starting a run, getting a joker, then exiting and reloading

Do it with both halves just to have a control

[quiet latch]

The first half I deleted worked (pactdeck and below) but the second time it did the same thing (negativejoker and up)

[gilded vortex]

remove the first half, then remove half of what remains

keep the half that doesn't work, then repeat until you find the smallest collection of mods that don't work

I imagine it's a single mod causing the issue, but it could be multiple mods mixing poorly

[haughty hinge]

monies

[gilded vortex]

But if you do half at a time you'll find the culprit in approximately log_2(n) attempts

where n is the number of mods

[haughty hinge]

i love cryptid

[quiet latch]

would the log file show anything that could help finding which it is?

[gilded vortex]

so with 1,000 mods you'd do approximately 10 tests

[gilded vortex]

I'm not sure. I imagine the issue is that someone overwrote either the save or load functions

maybe they tried to hook it but did it poorly

[quiet latch]

yeah I think so, it says "WARN :: Loader :: Duplicate mod ID: AxUtil"

[gilded vortex]

I don't think that warning is important but idk

[quiet latch]

it's one of the .lua files

[gilded vortex]

I mean, most mods are .lua files yes

[quiet latch]

I mean one of the ones that aren't in folders

[dapper helm]

axutil is for seals fyi

if you want to get rid of the warning

[quiet latch]

ah ok

I figured it out, it was the scrapdeck

[last garden]

how do i fix this after installing the more fluff mod

[haughty hinge]

average cryptid run

[quiet latch]

welp now when I'm in the shop it's not giving me the cards to choose, no jokers, tarrot, planet, or normal cards. Even when I reroll I get nothing

[haughty hinge]

uhhh...

[hardy brook]

Welp

[woeful finch]

ooh what's this?

[random silo]

just attempted to download steamodded, should i not be seeing any additional menu options or something? i genuinely cant tell if i actually downloaded it

i followed the direct installation instructions

i have steamodded-main inside mods inside balatro inside roaming inside app data

[open epoch]

Someone on reddit posted a couple deck ideas that I found interesting and I decided to recreate them, work in progress but it's coming along

Double Deck: Start with 104 cards, pick 1 extra card from booster packs (so an Arcana Pack allows you to pick 2 out of 4 cards, a Mega Celestial Pack gives you 3 out of 5)

It took me way too long to kludge together in code, but I also managed to make it look like someone actually shuffled the Blue Deck and Red Deck together :')

As in, the 2nd pack's cards all have red backs when they get turned over for any reason (dealt to the player, shuffled back into deck, turned over for enhancement animations or bosses that make cards face-down)

[random silo]

this is what it currently looks like

[open epoch]

||I love this game but the game's Lua code seems held together by duct tape||

[random silo]

is there some issue with the file structure?

[white scarab]

Is lovely installed?

[random silo]

oh

lol im stupid

[white scarab]

also this looks like it’s Steamodded 1.0.0, most mods are still using 0.9.8 so you may want to download the code from the GitHub release instead

[open epoch]

Yeah the install guide for 0.9.8 is essentially gone

Or at least not easily reachable

[random silo]

is the game directory %appdata%/balatro?

referred to in the lovely instructions

[open epoch]

But basically you download 0.9.8 from here: https://github.com/Steamopollys/Steamodded/releases/tag/0.9.8

Put the steamodded injector executable in your Balatro game folder in Steam's local game files, and drag Balatro.exe on top of the steamodded_injector.exe file

[dapper helm]

install for 0.9.8 and 1.0 is the same as long as you use the good method (lovely) and not the pointless annoying bad method (injector)

[open epoch]

And then mods should be loaded from the mods folder

[dapper helm]

don't use injector

[open epoch]

Ah

When I first installed it I don't think I saw anything in regards to lovely

But that was a while ago

[dapper helm]

yeah

[open epoch]

Instructions just opened with "use the injector and done"

[random silo]

im mostly planning on making mods wth this lol

so im going with 1.0.0

[dapper helm]

the install instructions were only changed recently to plainly state that the injector is not the best method, but its been worse for like forever

[open epoch]

Also I find it rather amusing that due to pure happenstance with how Love2D's API's work on Android, Steamodded just works out of the box on the phone version(s) if you use Balatro Mobile Maker

I hope 1.0.0 won't break that

[random silo]

uhhhh nothing has changed except for this happening

wth

[dapper helm]

game directory is steamapps/common/balatro or whatever

[random silo]

oh

[dapper helm]

manage local files on steam

[random silo]

IT WORKED

[white scarab]

BAL||||TRO

[dapper helm]

i'd refrain from talking about this cause of #📜・modding-rules 1 and 4, idk how that even exists but i guess maybe its not important enough for the publisher to try to take it down? or they just don't know

[prisma sequoia]

if i made an aseprite .pal for the basegame joker palette, would it be appropriate to post in this channel or somewhere else?

[woeful finch]

if you see any knock-offs and such contact the publisher thru [e-mail] and they will deal with it
#🎙・server-chat message

[random silo]

ohhhh it was an android knockoff

[woeful finch]

duh

[random silo]

ok thats bad

i didnt know

[woeful finch]

...

[random silo]

im stupid as hell

[woeful finch]

nw it happens

you will know when balatro mobile comes out when there's an announcement

[dapper helm]

nah not a knockoff but still against the rules and explicitly stated to be against the creator's wishes

[open epoch]

Is that ToS-breaking though? It's rather common practice for Game Maker or Love2D games to get programs that take the PC version and repack the data for Android

But yeah you're right, I missed that channel

For some reason I can't see any of the modding channels until someone links them

[haughty hinge]

this took some time but was worth

[open epoch]

That's dumb as heck

Also lmao I only just now saw the modding-dev channel

Epic

[woeful finch]

yeah

[dapper helm]

not sure if its illegal to make (probably not) but its def something you shouldn't talk about here

[woeful finch]

discord made this genius idea of browse channel in an attempt to replace the "select role to show channel" bots and stuff

little did they know some people do not know that this is a feature and...

you get people not seeing channels

[open epoch]

Argh, I don't know if I want to keep this at +1 Discard or give it +1 Hand Size instead

I thought this would just be a funny gimmick deck but playing it is actually rather interesting

I did some test runs without any extra discards or hand size but that makes it a bit awkward to play

[last garden]

why does the more fluff mod not work i just have this

[open epoch]

The +1 hand size makes it look a bit too busy for my tastes but it does make the deck suck less at drawing Straights

[open epoch]

Multiple people have reported More Fluff not working in relation to Thunderstore, I just think it's a Thunderstore issue because it's janky. Try installing it from Github

https://github.com/notmario/MoreFluff/releases/tag/v1.3.6

Note that you'll need to manually install... uh... whatever modloader this mod uses

He doesn't say anywhere

Like at all

[dapper helm]

cloud 9 gaming

[haughty hinge]

hopefully i can push this to echips

[open epoch]

Oh yeah Cloud 9 is very good with this, $8 per round

[dapper helm]

steamodded 0.9.8

[last garden]

i just have an issue with downloading the stuff for mods to work so could you help?

[open epoch]

Try installing the mods and Steamodded and Lovely manually, not through r2modman or Thunderstore, it clearly doesn't seem to work well with this game due to the way mods are loaded and r2modman being kinda shit

[last garden]

ok

i got it working i just forgot to use the injector and tried to manually download the files last time

[random silo]

i extracted the games source code

and uh

where the hell are the joker calculations

[rigid jewel]

calculate_joker in card.lua

[random silo]

found it

what exactly does the context argument do?

[white scarab]

Tells what it’s calculating for (ex. Playing a hand, selling a card, etc.)

[random silo]

uhhhh how the hell do i make a lua file

[rare shell]

save it as <your file name>.lua in your editor of choice

[random silo]

well that was fast

i dont really see what the problem is

oh nope just saw it i think

sike so many more issues

[rigid jewel]

This is using 0.9.8 syntax with 1.0.0

[random silo]

the problem is the 1.0.0 wiki page has literally no examples

well i guess there is one in the general api documentation
