thanks mathguy!!

[brisk seal]

np

[misty geyser]

just kinda curious cuz i got into looking at balatro mods today, is there any way of disabling specific mods or would i just have to delete them from my folder?

[fast stone]

disabling specific mods is a feature in smod 1.0.0

however, for 0.9.8 i personally just move the mod to a different folder

[misty geyser]

kk tysm

[sleek kestrel]

trying to use the deckcreator mod via thunderstore but its dumping out some weird error. anyone had this problem or know a fix?

im using steamodded 0.9.8 uploaded there

[white scarab]

Don’t use the Thunderstore version

[sleek kestrel]

should i use v0.9.8 release on gh or just main branch

[lean dune]

0.9.8 compat on alpha can be buggy, it's better to stick to 0.9.8 if you're only gonna use mods made for it

So the release should do for you unless you want to use 1.0 mods

[sleek kestrel]

sounds good

thanks for your help everyone

[west hill]

You mean for retexturing the enhancements?

[oak fern]

what the sigma ⁉️

[wanton rapids]

is that the rhythm doctor freezeshot sound

or am i hallucinating

[grand geode]

huh 😭

[wanton rapids]

guess i am

[grand geode]

suprisingly i don't have rd files on hand

[candid sable]

Rhythm Doctor or Necrodancer crossover would be sick

[wanton rapids]

i mean window dance is doable

[grand geode]

let me just translate all the code from rd into lua

[proven fox]

After updating windows it seems like my game always starts in vanilla mode, anyone know why that might be

[oak fern]

wdym "vanilla mode"

[proven fox]

As in without mods

[oak fern]

reinstall SMODS (+ lovely)

[proven fox]

I reinstalled smods, but didn't do that with lovely, I'll try that

Aight yeah, that worked, I think something nuked the version.dll file in my Balatro files

Thanks!

[grand geode]

windows defender did

[gilded vortex]

"Mom, I'm thirsty, I want water."
"We have water at home."
Water at home:

[random silo]

L im stupid i meant consumable types

[west hill]

Just use the new key, is the gear example not there?

[random silo]

Sorry didnt see that

[brisk seal]

Isn’t that easier than The Water

[grand geode]

it replaces big blinds

these are generally easier than boss blinds

[gritty finch]

I'm thinking of modding the game, do mods corrupt save data?

Also, I have a current run that I am really proud of but I am scared of messing it up, is there a way to make a backup save of that somehow?

[white scarab]

generally no but I would not play modded on a profile you care about

[gritty finch]

fair, thanks!

[white scarab]

%AppData%/Balatro/[profile #]/save.jkr, can be copied somewhere else and moved back later

[gritty finch]

holy crap thank you!!!!

(im sorry if i missed this somewhere i cannot find it quickly in the server) how do you mod the game?

[white scarab]

Here’s a guide on how to install Steamodded, the primary modloader for Balatro

It’s written for v0.9.8, but most modding is now on the v1.0.0 beta

For that you need to download the source code directly from GitHub instead of the releases tab (and then copy all of it into the folder)

[gritty finch]

thank you, ill start working on this in a while!!

[magic brook]

I made a mod

update

[gritty finch]

I don't know if this has been done before but what about a mod with like Uno cards or something lol

[gilded vortex]

I’ve seen ideas for specific UNO inspired effects like

#⚙・modding-general message

[polar schooner]

Why are you over there

[rigid jewel]

We love duped cards that aren't placed into the hand correctly ❤️

[polar schooner]

but it's not a duped card

i have duplicated no cards here

[rigid jewel]

Wait what the

What the pair doin wtf

[fast stone]

two cards
five feet apart cuz they're not gay (they're ace)

[drowsy onyx]

ah yes... pa ir

[terse dune]

I was playing Cryptid and ended up pressing the View Integrity of Game Files button on Steam, and now whenever I press Play, it gives me this error message. Is there a way to just wipe your current run, while keeping all of your meta-progression? Can someone please help me?

[brisk seal]

you need Talisman

[terse dune]

I have it

[brisk seal]

well, idk then

[terse dune]

maybe I need to reinstall steammodded and lovely

[white scarab]

reinstall lovely

if you want to just fix the crash you can delete the save.jkr in your profile but your mods won't work anyway

[terse dune]

thanks

[fair bane]

are there any 1.0.0 deck mods i could look at?

[white scarab]

Cryptid has a lot of decks

[manic jasper]

Me when Brainstorm Copies ||Punishing Bird||'s ||"Lose the run if sold"|| effect (I am using debug mode):

[gritty finch]

thanks!!!

[zenith drum]

anyone know what mod/tool balatro university used in his most recent video for the faster restarting... if it's even public? (Video Title: "Canio go [not so] Big (World Record Attempt)" )

[white scarab]

[zenith drum]

thanks

[white scarab]

yw

[lyric estuary]

Can someone help me?

[candid sable]

Only Bunco?

[lyric estuary]

Yeah

Playing a different mod right now

[candid sable]

You're on 0.9.8 or 1.0.0

I think the 0.9.8 version is no longer supported

[swift pawn]

hey all, I got a custom joker I think is written up, now I need to test. How do I make this show up in shop, without having to constantly reroll to find it? I'm using steamodded

i guess i could make a deck/challenge with it by default maybe...

[grand geode]

they're using 0.9.8 but installed the 1.0.0 of bunco

[grand geode]

install DebugPlus, then press 3 on the collection page ingame

[swift pawn]

oh thanks

[swift pawn]

Sorry if I'm missing something really obvious or in the docs, anyone know what's going on

[swift pawn]

I copied all my files to a new folder and it works now. Incredible

[plucky pond]

if MoreSpeeds just isn't enough, then this might be

testing a new mod of mine which simply makes events run as fast as they possibly can

[polar schooner]

fastg

[plucky pond]

it affects everything. check out how quick starting a new run is:

[fast stone]

runner's dream mod

[plucky pond]

this is probably going to break things but i'm testing it thoroughly

[fast stone]

i like how it looks!

[plucky pond]

this is so fast and i love it

[grand geode]

fucking YES please

i need to skip pack opening anim

[rigid jewel]

How well does this play with skip anims option in Talisman?

[white scarab]

I would guess pretty well

[rigid jewel]

Wonder if this is an “one or the other” or if it stacks.

[white scarab]

They override different aspects so they probably stack (Talisman with the number of animations and jenwalter’s mod with their speed)

[plucky pond]

all my mod does is override delay in added events to be near-zero (if it's an "easing" event) or zero (if it's an "immediate" event)

basically, the game will run events as fast as its FPS will permit it to

[gilded vortex]

There’s already a mod to skip animations 😅

Although seeing the above comments maybe you could use both :0

[plucky pond]

yes, but it doesn't change event delays, this one does

[jagged jay]

how can i start making mods for this game? as in, what programs do i use. i already have lovely injector and steamodded, idk if i need anything else

[tiny violet]

Mods are written in a language called Lua, which is really easy to use if you have any programming experience

You don't need any tools other than a basic text editor, and all mods have their source code inside the mod folder so you can always open up an existing mod to see how they coded anything

There's also the Steamodded docs, which have a reference of everything you can do with the API

[jagged jay]

so i need to download lua? or do i just use a text file and then name it as .lua

[tiny violet]

Just renaming your text files to .lua will work!

You've got to make sure you follow the right format for how Steamodded expects your lua files but yeah no fancy downloads needed

[jagged jay]

oh wow that's much easier than what i thought!!

and when i'm done coding smth, i just put it in the same folder i put other people's mods in, right?

[tiny violet]

Yep. There's no special packaging you need to do, just have your folder with the lua files and image assets in the standard Mods folder (just like any other mod)

[jagged jay]

cool!

also, is there a way to test stuff quickly?

[tiny violet]

If you hold down 'm' in-game, it will reload all mods and quit out to the main menu instantly without having to close the game

So, if you've made changes to your mod.lua, you can just save the file and hold 'm' to see those changes in-game

[jagged jay]

ohh okay. thanks!!

[grand geode]

also install #1228149931257237664 for some debug stuff, like spawning Jokers instantly

[tiny violet]

I need to install DebugPlus, I've just been using a debug deck that loads in the jokers I'm currently testing at the start of the run

[candid sable]

Anyone also bump into the problem of shift + / not responding?

[gilded vortex]

You can also set the debug mode to true locally

It won’t have all extra features of DebugPlus

Which I don’t know because I don’t use

[plucky pond]

https://discord.com/channels/1116389027176787968/1258019898244993096

now you can play the game like a lightning bolt

[wild thunder]

mod idea: no 7s. straights and strength skip over 7, and 7s never appear in standard packs.

[brisk seal]

Why

[white scarab]

Aces are now considered 7s

[wild thunder]

because 7s are useless

[white scarab]

Not according to the four ULTRAKILL jokers in Cryptid

[toxic cloud]

but why
❎ jokers that buff 7s in some way
✅ remove 7

you know what
screw you econ 7 that's way stronger than Cloud 9

[brisk seal]

I made a 7 based once

[brisk seal]

well technically the wording doesn't specify what is being.

retiggered

[latent nimbus]

Retrigger every scored 7. Earn $7 for every scored 7.

[toxic cloud]

well, that sure sounds more straightforward

back then I accounted for shortening more than having a clear meaning

you just get 14 bucks per 7 assuming no more retriggers

[latent nimbus]

you could also word it like:
Retrigger all 7s, earn 7$ for every scored 7

[fast stone]

this implies it will also retrigger non scoring 7s

[brisk seal]

scored 7s are retriggered and give $7.

[fast stone]

so gold, steal and blue seal 7s could get retriggered as well

[fast stone]

yeah this sounds better

[latent nimbus]

agreed

[toxic cloud]

this is pretty close to the original desc from the mod author, except they used "n-point cards" 💀

[round ore]

1.0 out yet

[brisk seal]

steamodded 1.0.0?

[round ore]

Yeah

[brisk seal]

yes

it's been out

[round ore]

Like full release

[brisk seal]

no'

[round ore]

K still bo modding then my computer thinks 0.9.8 is a virus and deletes it repeatedly

[zenith drum]

anyone know of a mod that would enable / disable jokers, say if I wanted to disable some of the base game jokers to only play with modded ones.

[fervent owl]

1.0.0 with lovely is not any better, windows defender will flag lovely because it modifies a programs code while it's starting

The only solution is to tell Windows defender to ignore Balatro.exe folder

[round ore]

It deletes the version code when I run my virus detection software

[fervent owl]

What version code?

Idk I never used steamodded 0.9.8

[urban grail]

don't remove it

[humble saffron]

hm, windows defender catching lovely

[urban grail]

it's a thing that's happening to everybody

[brisk seal]

Finally a time it’s good to be using Mac

[fervent owl]

Tbh I got a different detection personally

[urban grail]

how do I copy from the console log?

[gilded vortex]

which log

[gilded vortex]

You can select and ctrl + insert

[urban grail]

thanks

[round ore]

So I'll ask again why isn't there just Steam workshop capability

[polar schooner]

None of this is official

to have workshop support would imply official mod support

[feral jolt]

It's recognized to some extent, otherwise why would this channel even exist

[polar schooner]

You'd still need the modding api to be built into the game itself to have proper workshop support

[knotty roost]

doin some texture stuff today

( I have to rearange every suit... 🥹 )

[lean dune]

fuck no, why do people think workshop is the ultimate stage of modding? it would surely provide a more restrictive interface and not let us do the advanced stuff we've gotten to with lovely patches

the next best thing would probably be some integration to install mods in-game, which may be coming to steamodded down the line

[round ore]

It just has less issues framework wise for my laptop

[lean dune]

I see things more from the perspective of developing mods

also what's the difference on there being an official release for steamodded 1.0? the alpha has been available and is installed the exact same way a future release would be

lovely generally causes less antivirus issues (though defender recently just deleted it for almost everyone)

besides, if there's ever workshop support, modders aren't going to blindly abandon a well established modding API in steamodded

[zealous wave]

wdym

it should run the same regardless of whether you have a supercharged gaming pc or a laptop

[round ore]

My computer detects it as malware

Softwork*

[lean dune]

even lovely?

[latent nimbus]

i see it as a matter of trust

and accessiblity

steam workshop is sorta built into steam itself, so theres a loeer barrier of entry, and generally they're scanned for viruses and whatnot

[plucky pond]

the moral is; not every game needs steam workshop integration. risk of rain 2 is a massive example of that

[gilded vortex]

I mean if you trust the mod you can bypass the warning

[brisk seal]

first time using the tarot pallete, think it went well

[gilded vortex]

Ooh, is the Ante 8 Blind predetermined?

[brisk seal]

with this bonus blind yes

[gilded vortex]

I was thinking how knowing what bosses are coming could enable some interesting designs

Because they’d feel less punishing

[brisk seal]

that was the idea

[carmine mortar]

So… get the mechanics of ante on ante 1-7?

With score requirements still of the 1-7 levels, and not 8

[brisk seal]

lemme just record a video

on Ante 8 Violet Vessel WILL show up.

[polar schooner]

...I've managed to make a savefile so cursed that hitting the Next Round button just. Closes the game

how do i debug this

[maiden marlin]

Go to https://balatro.shorty.systems/ and view your save file

[polar schooner]

Error loading file: Unexpected token 'o', ..."d","amt":to_big(1.4,"... is not valid JSON
yeah it uh, doesn't work with talisman

[tranquil vessel]

lol

balatro's savefile structure (.jkr) is just simple deflate-raw iirc

[brisk seal]

vanilla saves are non-comaptible with talisman

[polar schooner]

yeah so i have no idea why it just closes

i tried to open the game through command line to save the log but it didn't work

[vivid kite]

Hey, folks. Does anyone have a guide on installing Lovely on Mac? Whenever I drag the script to the Terminal it just gives me a “no permissions” error

I was trying to install Steamodded 1.0.0

But it won’t work without Lovely

[maiden marlin]

DM me in an hour or so and I can help

[white scarab]

Guess what? It also doesn’t work with Ankh :) (unintentionally, I promise)

[polar schooner]

the only thing i can think of it that it's... a perkeo crash, somehow??

since it's the only thing i have that triggers at shop end

Yeah I sold Perkeo and I could proceed to the next round

which makes me suspect it might be an Incantation issue?

[grand geode]

i'd assume it's trying to do some stuff with the eternal incan?

[random silo]

i just got the stupidest idea ever

[grand geode]

crashing instantly is usually an infinite loop

[random silo]

quick time events in balatro

i dont even know how i would begine to make it

and that would necessitate ui work meaning i would die a horrible and painful death

but one can dream

[polar schooner]

it would be nice if i could find actual log files for the game but it doesnt seem to save any

[grand geode]

can you find a lovely log for it

[polar schooner]

i don't know where lovely puts its logs

ah, lovely/log

Yeah nothing

it defaultlogs all the extra editins when i enter the shop but then the log just Ends

[grand geode]

rip

[abstract agate]

i just completed completionist+, but i did so with mods installed so I didn't get the achievement on steam - does anyone know a way to redo it and get the achievement without starting all over? do I need to reset my files?

[white scarab]

Uninstall the mods and finish a run

That works for unlocking it iirc

[abstract agate]

does it matter which deck i do it on?

just has to be vanilla balatro right?

[grand geode]

completionist+ is one of the retroactive ones, so you can install the achievementenabler mod

[swift pawn]

oh yeah. it's all coming together

[cunning iris]

wow those look freaking amazing

[tiny violet]

Do you ideas for the effects for any of them?

[swift pawn]

yeah i have an idea for all of them, but nothings set in stone. ideas are welcome

[timid nexus]

the modern art one isn't secretly a joker portrait 0/10 wiped from my memory given a bad yelp review /j wait oh my god it is

in all seriousness 10/10 art absolutely amazing

[swift pawn]

It is in fact vaguely inspired by the shape of joker

Kind of the right half of one

but yes, hard to see and not something i thought too hard abt

[swift pawn]

https://kcgidw.github.io/kcvanilla/ here u go! feedback or new ideas welcome

[brisk seal]

might be a bit insane

[stoic oar]

that red pack is so good lmao

[winter bone]

yo who tf put a virus in my lovely 😭

alert level high 😭 🙏

windows defender can't find viruses but it sure can mark not viruses as such

[stoic oar]

lovely basically works like a virus

long as its directly from github its all fine

[misty geyser]

kinda confused, whenever i add mods into my mods folder it doesnt show up in the mods tab of balatro, help?

[winter bone]

too much shit man

[winter bone]

restart your game

has to load the mods

if that doesn't work it's your problem

[misty geyser]

how do i do that? im a little stupid

[winter bone]

by

restarting the fucking game

tf

you close the game

and then

you open the game

[misty geyser]

didnt do anything

[winter bone]

then

your problem

[uneven cipher]

might be dumb question but do most mods work on mac

[misty geyser]

i'd think so

[winter bone]

💀 mac users

[uneven cipher]

i play on ps5 actually

i have a pc but it would probably have a heart attack

[fast stone]

are the mods compatible with the steamodded version you're using?

[misty geyser]

not 100% sure tbh

[fast stone]

lol, well make sure they are

[misty geyser]

cuz i legit just installed one and that ones working fine

[uneven cipher]

its saying i cant open it using the run_lovely.sh script bc apple cant check it for malware lmao but the installation guide says that steam is bugged on mac and thats the only way to load it

[toxic cloud]

send screenshot

[uneven cipher]

maybe this isnt right?

[toxic cloud]

bruh

don't use run_lovely.sh like that

[uneven cipher]

it said that too

[toxic cloud]

just go to terminal and type sh path/to/run_lovely.sh

[uneven cipher]

ok

[lean dune]

Mods is in the wrong place in the game dir

it needs to go into the save directory

[toxic cloud]

I haven't checked the Finder image lmao

[uneven cipher]

im too slow for this

which one is the save directory vs the game directory

[toxic cloud]

the Mods folder should be in Library/Application Support/Balatro

[uneven cipher]

OH

i see

[uneven cipher]

its saying "no such file or directory"

[toxic cloud]

did you seriously type path/to/run_lovely.sh instead of the actual path

[uneven cipher]

i copied and pasted what you said

[toxic cloud]

🤦‍♂️

it should be a real path, like this

[uneven cipher]

i honestly didnt know that was what it meant lmao sorry

[toxic cloud]

hold option key, right-click run_lovely.sh and choose Copy file as pathname

[uneven cipher]

it still said it cant be opened for the same reason as the other

[toxic cloud]

right-click liblovely.dylib and choose Open with > Terminal

you'll still have the pop-up but it now has the Open button

[uneven cipher]

got it i think

[toxic cloud]

now it should be allowed to run

you're down to sh path/to/run_lovely.sh

[uneven cipher]

got it

sorry for being stupid LOL

[toxic cloud]

h

[uneven cipher]

it is not letting it load

immediate crash

ok now it wants to work

[tiny violet]

Cosmic Collapse is genius and I love that idea

I might actually take inspiration from some of these for my own mod

[blazing sky]

yo i just got it working on macos if u need any help

mostly what the other dude was saying is right tho

[gilded vortex]

Interesting ideas. I had the same effect as Joker-Chan written down

[prime cairn]

I'm trying to download something but for some reason downloading balatromods before is now causing errors for me

does anyone know how to fix the lovely injector issue?

[grand geode]

steamodded has more mods

[prime cairn]

I have no idea where to find the lovely injector thing

[calm vessel]

do not use the injector, use lovely instead

[grand geode]

lovely is an injector LMAO

[prime cairn]

I did it like a year ago

or smth

[grand geode]

https://github.com/ethangreen-dev/lovely-injector

[prime cairn]

I don't remember

I need to delete it

[grand geode]

i don't think balatro has been out for a year

[prime cairn]

ik

I forgot

[calm vessel]

just verify file integrity on steam

[prime cairn]

ik but

I'm trying to download a diffrent thing

and it's for some reason trying to do something with the balatro mod file that doesn't even exist

[calm vessel]

what are you trying to do

[prime cairn]

uhh

so I have no idea how to fix this

so I was thinking if I could delete the lovey injector thing

this has happened for me multiple times

[calm vessel]

do this and update the lovely and steamodded

[prime cairn]

I'm not trying to download a balatro mod

I jsut want to fix this problem that is happening because of the balatro mod thing

[grand geode]

delete version.dll

[calm vessel]

i thought verifying did that oops

[stone brook]

nah verifying only checks balatro.exe i believe

[grand geode]

it checks for all files that steam downloads

all other files are untouched

[prime cairn]

where do I find that..?

[stone brook]

game directory

wherever balatro.exe is

[prime cairn]

It's not there...

[grand geode]

can you send a screenshot

[stone brook]

you probably left version.dll in downloads or your desktop or something

[stone brook]

look through your downloads folder, your desktop, wherever else you mightve put it

[prime cairn]

It was in system32..

[grand geode]

😭

[prime cairn]

so...

[stone brook]

wait no

[prime cairn]

?

[stone brook]

that one might be a normal version.dll

you should probably put that one back

[prime cairn]

k

[stone brook]

i would say to look at the date modified before removing it

but it probably changed because you deleted it

[exotic shadow]

Don't deletr the system32 one

[prime cairn]

there is 9 of them except for system 32 one...

[stone brook]

youre looking for a version.dll that is not 32kb

[prime cairn]

nvm it found a 10th one

[stone brook]

the lovely version.dll i have is 3114KB, so look for one around that big

yea youre gonna find a decent amount

[prime cairn]

YEA

I FOUND IT

Thanks guys for helping me

[stone brook]

out of curiosity, where was it

[prime cairn]

download 💀

[stone brook]

classic

[fallow bramble]

Does your mod project have a forum post yet? I'd like to keep track of it when it releases

[vivid kite]

Also, guys, has anyone experience crashes with Codex Arcanum mod before?

[swift pawn]

i think its a cool idea but im not sure it will be easy to implement. I don't see anything in the OG code that has a concept of a joker retriggering

[white scarab]

Yeah retrigger jokers were really complex to add

[swift pawn]

will definitely make a post in the future, but not now. i have almost nothing to show for it rn, dont want to jump the gun

[white scarab]

I made an API for it in my mod that I plan to add to Steamodded eventually

[gilded vortex]

Besides using MathIsFun’s API, my other idea for it was to hook eval_card to situationally call itself* twice.

But I’m not sure that works exactly

[swift pawn]

I'm definitely saving jokerchan and power grid for last

[glad sedge]

guys i been having a brain meltdown after this one:

any ideas how to debuff a random card in hand?

Working code for flipping a random card as example:

function Blind:stay_flipped(area, card) local blind_type = self:get_type() if not self.disabled and area == G.hand then -- Apply the 1 in 7 chance to boss blinds only if blind_type == 'Boss' and pseudorandom(pseudoseed(self.name)) < G.GAME.probabilities.normal / 53 then return true end end return false end

THIS RIGHT HERE WONT WORK!!:
function Blind:debuff_card(area, card) local blind_type = self:get_type() if not self.disabled and area == G.hand and card.area ~= G.jokers then -- Apply the random chance to apply debuff for boss blinds only if blind_type == 'Boss' and pseudorandom(pseudoseed(self.name)) < G.GAME.probabilities.normal / 1 then card:set_debuff(true) end end end

using this debuffs the entire deck not only hand, i just cant wrap my head around why the flips works but debuff wont

function Blind:debuff_card(card) local blind_type = self:get_type() if not self.disabled and area ~= G.jokers then -- Apply the random chance to apply debuff for boss blinds only if blind_type == 'Boss' and pseudorandom(pseudoseed(self.name)) < G.GAME.probabilities.normal / 1 then card:set_debuff(true) end end end

[grand geode]

Blind:debuff_card's parameters are card, from_blind, not area, card

You want to check the card.area

[grand geode]

This debuffs all cards because area here is nil, which is always different from G.jokers

[glad sedge]

so if i get you right should i use:

if not self.disabled and card.area == G.hand and card.area ~= G.jokers then

mm no that nils the game.

[maiden marlin]

Are you on smods 0.9.8 or 1.0, and are you overwriting the base game Blind:debuff_card function?

[glad sedge]

for now overwriting since im quickly testing

[maiden marlin]

as opposed to using the smods mod.debuff_card

[glad sedge]

so what could i change to fix it? i feel like there is little code to change but cant realize what

[maiden marlin]

could you post the code you currently have? it's likely something small somewhere in your code

[glad sedge]

sure, one moment!

function Blind:stay_flipped(area, card) local blind_type = self:get_type() if not self.disabled and area == G.hand then -- Apply the 1 in 7 chance to boss blinds only if blind_type == 'Boss' and pseudorandom(pseudoseed(self.name)) < G.GAME.probabilities.normal / 53 then return true end end return false end

function Blind:debuff_card(area, card) local blind_type = self:get_type() if not self.disabled and area == G.hand then -- Apply the random chance to apply debuff for boss blinds only if blind_type == 'Boss' and pseudorandom(pseudoseed(self.name)) < G.GAME.probabilities.normal / 1 then card:set_debuff(true) return end end end

@maiden marlin flipping works just fine and flips only drawn hand, if i use

if not self.disabled and card.area ~= G.jokers then

it considers the deck and not only drawn hand. so its half working!!

the other method discord wouldn't allow me to send in one message:

function Blind:debuff_hand(cards, hand, handname, check) if self.disabled then return end if self.debuff then self.triggered = false if self.debuff.hand and next(hand[self.debuff.hand]) then self.triggered = true return true end if self.debuff.h_size_ge and #cards < self.debuff.h_size_ge then self.triggered = true return true end if self.debuff.h_size_le and #cards > self.debuff.h_size_le then self.triggered = true return true end if self.name == "The Eye disabled" then if self.hands[handname] then self.triggered = true return true end if not check then self.hands[handname] = true end end if self.name == "The Mouth disabled" then if self.only_hand and self.only_hand ~= handname then self.triggered = true return true end if not check then self.only_hand = handname end end end if self.name == 'The Arm disabled' then self.triggered = false if G.GAME.hands[handname].level > 1 then self.triggered = true if not check then level_up_hand(self.children.animatedSprite, handname, nil, -1) self:wiggle() end end end if self.name == 'The Ox disabled' then self.triggered = false if handname == G.GAME.current_round.most_played_poker_hand then self.triggered = true if not check then ease_dollars(-G.GAME.dollars, true) self:wiggle() end end end end

[lean dune]

that's not very readable, consider using codeblocks:
```lua
code_here()
```

[maiden marlin]

Have you updated Blind:debuff_card(card) based on Myst's advice?

You still have incorrect arguments

as for design, if you're going to debuff cards in hand, I'd process debuffs on the whole deck- then people know what cards will be debuffed

[glad sedge]

i used

function Blind:debuff_card(card, from_blind)
    local blind_type = self:get_type()
    if not self.disabled and card.area == G.hand then
        -- Apply the random chance to apply debuff for boss blinds only
        if blind_type == 'Boss' and pseudorandom(pseudoseed(self.name)) < G.GAME.probabilities.normal / 1 then
            card:set_debuff(true)
            return
        end
    end
end

but wont debuff anything

people wont know what cards are flipped so i followed that idea. do you think its possible to achieve?

[maiden marlin]

It's definitely possible to achieve. I just want to make sure your effect isn't one of the ones that would benefit from being debuffed in deck. If it's random then it's fine

oh, you have to call Blind:debuff_card() manually. think of it as recalculating whether a card should be debuffed or not

[glad sedge]

right, i want it to be random .later i will add more conditions like top amount of debuffs but first i need to get this right, so only drawn hand is where the debuff happens

[maiden marlin]

Blind:debuff_card() is only called at specific points in the base game. You'll want to call it after drawing a hand

[lean dune]

is it intentional that you're putting other debuffs from blinds out of use?

[maiden marlin]

they're doing temporary testing

[glad sedge]

exactly that yes.
can you guide me in how to call it after drawing the hand?

[lean dune]

I see

[glad sedge]

my mind thinks it should be really similar to how im succesfully flipping random drawn cards

[maiden marlin]

yeah, it's completely different

there are a couple places in the code you could do it, you could modify Blind:drawn_to_hand

I think that's a reasonable one

[glad sedge]

right, i modified that before:

function Blind:drawn_to_hand()
    if not self.disabled then
        if self.name == 'Cerulean Bell disabled' then
            local any_forced = nil
            for k, v in ipairs(G.hand.cards) do
                if v.ability.forced_selection then
                    any_forced = true
                end
            end
            if not any_forced then 
                G.hand:unhighlight_all()
                local forced_card = pseudorandom_element(G.hand.cards, pseudoseed('cerulean_bell'))
                forced_card.ability.forced_selection = true
                G.hand:add_to_highlighted(forced_card)
            end
        end
        
        if self.prepped and #G.jokers.cards > 0 then
            local jokers = {}
            for i = 1, #G.jokers.cards do
                if not G.jokers.cards[i].debuff or #G.jokers.cards < 2 then
                    jokers[#jokers + 1] = G.jokers.cards[i]
                end
                G.jokers.cards[i]:set_debuff(false)
            end 
            
            local _card = pseudorandom_element(jokers, pseudoseed('crimson_heart'))
            if _card and self:get_type() == 'Boss' and pseudorandom(pseudoseed(self.name)) < G.GAME.probabilities.normal / 100000 then
                if _card.area == G.jokers then
                    _card:set_debuff(true)
                    _card:juice_up()
                    self:wiggle()
                end
            end
        end
    end
    self.prepped = nil
end

the idea was to take the crimson heart ability and apply it globally to all blinds that are boss

it works! but.. i have to elaborate the debuff code here for drawn hands too it seems

im not so sure how to do so but if you say i should try it here its a good starting point

[maiden marlin]

not sure I got my point across, sorry. I was saying, just add a line that calls Blind:debuff_card on all cards in G.hand.

there is an issue in that set_debuff is supposed to recalculate the debuffed state of a card. so you'll have to save the result of the random check (debuffed or not)

[glad sedge]

that set_Debuff is disabling the joker correctly after some tests.

[maiden marlin]

sorry, edited above. call Blind:debuff_card

[glad sedge]

as far as i know i only changed the detection of blind from crimson to type boss and added pseudorandom and also a last check for jokers

[maiden marlin]

alright. to update the debuff on cards you'll have to call Blind:debuff_card on all cards in G.hand each time a hand is drawn

[glad sedge]

but not sure if this is correct before attempting to call it:

function Blind:debuff_card(card, from_blind)
    local blind_type = self:get_type()
    if not self.disabled and card.area == G.hand then
        -- Apply the random chance to apply debuff for boss blinds only
        if blind_type == 'Boss' and pseudorandom(pseudoseed(self.name)) < G.GAME.probabilities.normal / 1 then
            card:set_debuff(true)
            return
        end
    end
end

[maiden marlin]

I think it's correct

but, there's lots of little things that can be wrong. go ahead and try it out as is

hm, actually I think no cards are in hand when Blind:debuff_card() is called at the start of the round, so your function won't do anything unless you actually add another call when each hand is drawn

[glad sedge]

function Blind:stay_flipped(area, card)
    local blind_type = self:get_type()
    if not self.disabled and area == G.hand then
        -- Apply the 1 in 7 chance to boss blinds only
        if blind_type == 'Boss' and pseudorandom(pseudoseed(self.name)) < G.GAME.probabilities.normal / 53 then
            return true
        end
    end
    return false
end

function Blind:debuff_card(card, from_blind)
    local blind_type = self:get_type()
    if not self.disabled and card.area == G.hand then
        -- Apply the random chance to apply debuff for boss blinds only
        if blind_type == 'Boss' and pseudorandom(pseudoseed(self.name)) < G.GAME.probabilities.normal / 53 then
            card:set_debuff(true)
            return
        end
    end
end

[grand geode]

Blind:debuff_card() is called in set_blind which is before drawing cards i believe

[glad sedge]

and then

-- Debuff all cards in G.hand with a probability
        for _, card in ipairs(G.hand.cards) do
            local blind_type = self:get_type()
            if blind_type == 'Boss' and pseudorandom(pseudoseed(self.name)) < G.GAME.probabilities.normal / 1 then
                self:debuff_card(card, from_blind)
            end
        end
    end

seemed to do the job

@maiden marlin thank you, and everyone else!

[maiden marlin]

great! (this will break with DNA but let's not worry about that for now)

[glad sedge]

how so?

i see... i tested

any idea how to avoid calling the method when using dna or any other method that draws cards to hand , cryptid

[maiden marlin]

that's really tricky. what you want is to roll for a debuff on the new card, while keeping the old debuffs the same

[glad sedge]

actually playing cards will also apply debuff to alraedy cards drawn. i thought this was for the drawn cards only not cards in hand

[maiden marlin]

so, you'll need to set a variable on the card after you roll for yes/no on debuffing it

try setting something like card.ability.ANY_NAME_HERE = ... and clearing that variable on every card in Blind:defeat()

[glad sedge]

how about this:

        local new_cards = {}
        for _, card in ipairs(G.hand.cards) do
            if not card.drawn_to_hand_checked then
                card.drawn_to_hand_checked = true
                new_cards[#new_cards + 1] = card
            end
        end


        -- Debuff 
        for _, card in ipairs(new_cards) do
            local blind_type = self:get_type()
            if blind_type == 'Boss' and pseudorandom(pseudoseed(self.name)) < G.GAME.probabilities.normal / 1 then
                self:debuff_card(card)
            end
        end
    end

[maiden marlin]

you'll want to set a variable that keeps track of whether the card was debuffed- if blind:debuff_card() is called, you want to return the same answer

[glad sedge]

but after niling the blind on defeat, will that be a problem ? will it track purged and non existant debuffed cards?

i added

            self.dissolve = nil
            self:set_blind(nil, nil, true)
            
            -- Clear debuff effects on all playing cards
            for _, card in ipairs(G.playing_cards) do
                card:set_debuff(false)
            end
            
            -- Clear debuff effects on all jokers
            for _, card in ipairs(G.jokers.cards) do
                card:set_debuff(false)
            end
            
            return true
        end)

[lean dune]

nil for non-checked, false for non-debuffed cards

easy as that

[glad sedge]

i was surprised the blind defeat didnt have this code as failsafe, probably a good reason im missing

look at this magic code:

function Blind:debuff_card(card, from_blind)
    local blind_type = self:get_type()
    if not self.disabled and card.area == G.hand then
        -- Apply the random chance to apply debuff for boss blinds only
        if blind_type == 'Boss' and pseudorandom(pseudoseed(self.name)) < G.GAME.probabilities.normal / 10 then
            if not card.debuffed then
                card:set_debuff(true)
                card.debuffed = true
            end
        end
    end
end

[fair bane]

ah alright

one sec then

[exotic shadow]

Not sure but cryptid might be the culprit

[tiny violet]

DID I HEAR A ROCK AND STONE?

[plucky pond]

karl would approve of this

[tiny violet]

I think the effect is interesting - upgrades your hand type, but you can hold onto it and wait until you've got the perfect hand to use it on

[plucky pond]

the trick is that how it upgrades it depends on the cards

e.g. mult cards will permanently add +4 mult to the hand type

currently it considers the card's rank, enhancement and edition for upgrades

and i've also made it so that when a card is exhausted/destroyed, it will level up the hand once

[misty geyser]

should i be using steammodded 1.0?

[exotic shadow]

Depends

If you just want to play with mods, see what version your mods support

If your developing mods, you'll probably want to consider 1.0, as that way you don't have to rewrite once it's final and also I'd you have issues, we can fix them before 1.0 releases.

[grim fjord]

What do I need to do differently in order to create a modded Joker in code? I can create vanilla Jokers just fine, but attempting to create a modded Joker crashes with the following error:

functions/common_events.lua:2245: attempt to index local 'center' (a nil value)

[gilded vortex]

What’s your code to create a vanilla/modded Joker?

[grim fjord]

apply = function(back)
  G.GAME.joker_buffer = G.GAME.joker_buffer + 1
  G.E_MANAGER:add_event(Event({
    func = function() 
    local card = create_card('Joker', G.jokers, true, nil, nil, nil, 'j_afmad', "afdeck")
    card:add_to_deck()
    G.jokers:emplace(card)
    card:start_materialize()
    G.GAME.joker_buffer = 0
    return true
  end}))
end

[gilded vortex]

what’s your mod prefix

[grim fjord]

Mod ID is 'AF2024', Joker key is 'j_afmad'

[gilded vortex]

The Joker key isn’t j_afmad; SMODS automatically adds your mod prefix as an infix: j_prefix_jokername

[grim fjord]

I'm a bit confused
If I change the Joker to have key = 'afmad' and the Mod ID is still AF2024, what key do I have to call?

[grand geode]

did you specify a prefix in your mod header?

[grim fjord]

I... might not have

[grand geode]

then your key should be j_AF20_afmad

if you don't specify a prefix, it's the first four characters of the mod id

[grim fjord]

Ah ok

[grand geode]

you might want to change the prefix though

[grim fjord]

What's the parameter name for that? MOD_PREFIX or something else?

[grim fjord]

Without setting the prefix, this key still doesn't work

[grim fjord]

Aight after combing through the Steamodded repo a bit found out that it's just PREFIX, and after setting that it now works

Thanks everyone

[gilded vortex]

How would you rank the following Blinds:

1. Base Chips can’t be greater than money
2. +5% Blind Size for each $1
3. All cards are debuffed if you have $10 or more (increased $ on victory)

[fast stone]

rank as in difficulty or?

[grim fjord]

Going off immediate impressions I'm'a say 1, 3, 2 from easiest to hardest

[fast stone]

yeah for difficulty id go with 1, 3, 2

[gilded vortex]

Mainly difficulty but other factors too

1 makes the most sense as a Showdown Blind, while one of the other two make more sense as normal Blinds

Maybe I’ll buff 1 and I’ll think which of the other two I want to add (maybe both)

[grim fjord]

1 would be harder if you specified Chips in general, but with specifically Base Chips seems pretty easy to bypass with your garden variety chip engine

2 is Violet Vessel as long as you have $40 or more (which you are probably doing in the later pre-endless antes, especially if you have Seed Money)

[gilded vortex]

I could also specify a percentage of money, but maybe I’ll tweak to make it harder. I had already considered making it affect Chips rather than just Base Chips.

Although I have a different Showdown Blind that affected Base Chips and Base Mult and that one is too harsh

[grim fjord]

3 is Verdant Leaf as long as you have $10 or more (which you are almost certainly doing past ante 2 or 3), though you can roll down in the previous shop to get past that, and the increased reward makes it more viable to do that

They're giving me "Finisher Blinds' little siblings" vibes, which I weirdly like the more I think about it

[gilded vortex]

There’s also a combination of 2 and 3 which scales faster (e.g. +10%) but only for each $1 above $10

[steel radish]

I recently installed steamodder 0.98 and using a hand speed mod. Seems to not be loading at all now. Do I need to update anything? Sorry I'm a n00b at this so appreciate any help 🙂

4 speed super slow now xD

[fervent owl]

1st one is pretty annoying for high Chip hands (two pair, straights etc), and probably very hard on plasma

Really depends on how you play, but more often than not I'd invest into planets, so having a cap on base chips is rough

[gilded vortex]

The other boss I mentioned set your Base Chips and Mult to your level :)

Though I changed Chips to X5 because the original was too rough

I didn’t find the non-Showdown version (only Base Chips) that hard, but I’d also change it to X5

Any ideas what it could be where only one mod doesn't load any graphics? Trying out snoresvilles turbulent jokers, but the other jokerpacks I've added shows new card graphics normally. It plays correctly as well, just that it's jimbo on every card

firstly, is Lovely installed? (you should see a command prompt open before Balatro if so)

[abstract sand]

ope yes

and actually i resolved it

lovely was pathing to a different mod folder

tyvm for your prompt reply

[white scarab]

yw

[agile stirrup]

how can I fix that? (here's the mod list)

[rare shell]

as I said earlier, update your steamodded

[humble saffron]

losing your life savings? just play the whole deck

they never expect it

[hardy brook]

Huh... Now do that with 60 suits

[agile stirrup]

why the latest version is 0.98

[rare shell]

no not from the releases, from the source

you're looking at 0.9.8, but you need 1.0.0 steamodded

[fervent owl]

#⚙・modding-general message

[agile stirrup]

oh thx

[umbral atlas]

out of curiosity, how much did yall play before starting to mod the game, did most people go for the "all gold stickers on all jokers" thing before modding?

im just bored/curious

[fervent owl]

I finished c++ before getting into modding

I don't really play modded content, or not yet at least, just started creating mods

I think majority didn't do c++ tho

[azure sierra]

Does anyone know if there is a list of mods for steamodded 1.0?

[white scarab]

Not a full list, but a lot are in https://discord.com/channels/1116389027176787968/1255696773599592458

[sturdy salmon]

I did a few decks on gold stake and most of the achievements except completionist + and ++ and the all challenges achievement before just swapping to modded completely

[rugged dune]

does anyone know if the boredom joker (i think) can retrigger copies of itself?

like if i had 2 would they keep triggering each other

from cryptid

or could it retrigger a brainstorm thats copying it or similar

[white scarab]

No

The way I have the API set up retrigger jokers can’t trigger other retrigger jokers, otherwise you could get infinite loops with ex. Boredom and Canvas

[rugged dune]

cool i thought so

my pc is just dying

current fps 6 😭

its been counting my score for the past 20 mins

im gonna have to pull the plug

[white scarab]

Or you could use Talisman

And reload the save

Low FPS probably means a lot of calculating

[rugged dune]

i have it set to disable scoring animation already if thats what you mean lol

[white scarab]

ye

[rugged dune]

ill just have to end the run here then

exponentia is very strong lol

especially with double scale

[polar schooner]

uhhhh huh

it used three standard packs at the same time

[fair mango]

does any1 else have an issue where they cant screen share balatro to discord after modding it

like instead of showing hte game it shows the

other window that opens up

this thing

[winter bone]

When is the dice mod getting art

[winter bone]

Specific ahh question

I don’t think anyone has tried

[calm vessel]

no I don't think it's about modding, I've shared my screens and never had this problems

could be wrong tho

[grand geode]

if there are multiple windows discord should be able to pick that up

[fair mango]

think it just has to do w/ playing balatro on fullscreen idk why

i changed to windowed borderless and it works fine

[grand geode]

i was on windowed the whole time

[fast stone]

you can deactivate the window if its giving you trouble

[grim fjord]

This game's robustness continues to astound me

[rigid jewel]

(Thank Observatory for this)

[fair mango]

rlly? whenever i try to close the window it closed the gmae so i thought u just had to keep it open 😭

how do i deactivate it 🙏

[glad sedge]

spent 24 hs trying to fix this: i need to guarantee 10 random different debuffed cards, anyone can help me, please?

function Blind:debuff_card(card, from_blind)
    self.debuff_count = self.debuff_count or 0
    self.debuff_attempted = self.debuff_attempted or false
    self.debuff_target_count = self.debuff_target_count or love.math.random(0, 10)

    if not self.disabled and not self.debuff_attempted then
        if self:get_type() == 'Boss' and card.area ~= G.jokers then
            if self.debuff_count < 10 then
                -- Check if the debuff has already been applied
                if not card:has_debuff() then
                    card:set_debuff(true)
                    self.debuff_count = self.debuff_count + 1
                end
            end

            if self.debuff_count >= self.debuff_target_count then
                self.debuff_attempted = true
            end
        end
    end
end

if anyone know how, dm me no matter the time, i will really appreciate this

[fast stone]

simply add "--disable-console" to the launch options

[fair mango]

tysm bro

had no idea 😭

[lunar fable]

why dose this happen?

[grand geode]

Talisman moment

do you have Talisman installed?

[lunar fable]

yes

it was working last week and i havent updated

mod list

steammoded isint working/instaled?

[lunar fable]

is there a mod that repetedly refreshes seeds untill the first shop has something spesific or a sertin skip tag with something in it (like soul)

[tranquil vessel]

I believe you are looking for https://discord.com/channels/1116389027176787968/1242974974701080617

[grand geode]

i think i fucked something up

i'm not sure what

[tranquil vessel]

looks fine to me

then again I probably need new glasses

[stoic oar]

now make it a standalone mod

[grim fjord]

Is there a way to check the game state immediately after using a consumable? For example, say I wanted to check the game state after using a Wheel of Fortune to see if it granted any editions, how would I go about that?

Using context.using_consumeable by itself checks the game state prior to the consumeable going off, and adding context.after doesn't work

[maiden marlin]

Just overwrite use_consumeable, probably

(contexts are very limited, not everything is implemented)

[grim fjord]

Overwriting the context completely seems a bit extreme, but is there a way to make my own context?

[toxic cloud]

Simplified English WIP

[gilded vortex]

Hooking use_consumable

[grim fjord]

How would I go about doing that?

[gilded vortex]

You store the original function in a variable, then overwrite the original but call the stored function inside

[grim fjord]

Aight, so I managed to hook into use_consumable and make my own context:

local old_usecon = Card.use_consumeable
Card.use_consumeable = function(self, area, copier)
    local out = old_usecon(self, area, copier)
    for i = 1, #G.jokers.cards do
        G.jokers.cards[i]:calculate_joker({after_consumeable = true, consumeable = self})
    end
    return out
end

But for some reason the new joker calculation is still taking place before it sees an edition has been added

[lean dune]

that's due to event logic

you need to use an even yourself if you wanna go after the events from the use function are done

[devout citrus]

swomebody here that can help me?

keeps crashing when i try to start

[grand geode]

update lovely

[devout citrus]

how exactly?

just in case anyone cared about this mechanic i implemented. finally got it working.
it debuffs in this case 13 cards minimum each blind boss, no matter which boss. and shuffles it with fisher yates shuffle algorithm, which i think is pretty neat

[latent flax]

Quick question, I modded Balatro and put something in through the directory, yet I can no longer find the mod file on my computer, and it essentially won't let me mod anything else into the game

[random silo]

Balanced

[gilded vortex]

Windows?

[woeful prism]

I use a custom card deck where hearts are red, diamonds are blue, clubs are green and spades are black. I managed to use a lua file to change the card deck and joker png's. But how do I change the in game texts to the correct colors? Thanks.

[random silo]

I think those are hard coded

[white scarab]

You can change them with Trance I think

Unless Smeared hardcoded it

[latent flax]

Yeah, on Steam

[west hill]

they're not hardcoded

its either G.C.SUITS or G.C.SO_1

I don't remember which one

[fervent owl]

it is suits yeah

theres' like 3 tables

for suit colors

or wait

lemme check

might be misremembering smth

[west hill]

iirc suits is set to either so_1 or so_1 depending on if you have high contrast enabled or not

[fervent owl]

this is G.C table

[tranquil vessel]

yeah during load time

[rare shell]

oh no!

[random silo]

Lol im stupid ig

[gilded vortex]

Search for %appdata% on the start menu searchbar

You can also execute a command to open it directly but I forget if it’s just %appdata% or if it needs something before

[tiny violet]

I believe it's just Windows + R -> %appdata%. That's what I've been using.

now to figure out how to independently change atlas positions

[polar schooner]

gives... how much??

[brisk seal]

[white scarab]

Is that purple one Epic?

Wait nvm

[brisk seal]

too much Cryptid

[polar schooner]

it uses the foil(?) cycling colour

[white scarab]

DARK_EDITION

[polar schooner]

nice

uhhhh problem

rip The Run

[brisk seal]

That’s cruel blinds for you

Wait mystic summit?

How’d that get debuffed

[glad sedge]

have you achieved flipped but showing debuff?

some of this jokers are debuffed and i cannot tell

[polar schooner]

the "+1 joker slot but debuff rightmost joker" voucher

[polar schooner]

not a mod dev, idk

[glad sedge]

what mod is the one showing debuffed below the card? any idea?

[brisk seal]

ah

[grand geode]

jokerdisplay

[polar schooner]

[grand geode]

Go ahead. Play the game.

[brisk seal]

lol

[polar schooner]

i love , it's my favourite game

[faint crown]

cavendish??

[brisk seal]

that's clearly .

[candid sable]

This one is actually on me. I'm working on it

[candid sable]

Should be fixed

[toxic cloud]

Ig this is much shorter than the original

[polar schooner]

"Cards you already own can appear again"

[toxic cloud]

that doesn't apply to booster packs having multiple copies of a card you don't own

[grand geode]

Duplicate cards can appear

[toxic cloud]

should I straight up make a WIP post for this tho

[brisk seal]

Vouchers:

[toxic cloud]

can multiple copies of a voucher appear tho (I'm not talking about Cryptid's Equilibrium deck)

[brisk seal]

voucher tag

[toxic cloud]

it makes the next ante voucher appear simultaneously with current one

[grim fjord]

This calculate function took like three days to write

But it finally does what I want

No hooking or added contexts required

[tranquil vessel]

lmao I like the <= check

Are there any mods to launch the game faster? xD

[brisk seal]

May I suggest a catapult?

[glad sedge]

any ideas to completely rework ancient joker? i want to give it another task but dont know what

[glad sedge]

little trick to show the debuff layer above the flipped joker if is debuffed:

        elseif self.sprite_facing == 'back' then
            local overlay = G.C.WHITE
            if self.area and self.area.config.type == 'deck' and self.rank > 3 then
                self.back_overlay = self.back_overlay or {}
                self.back_overlay[1] = 0.5 + ((#self.area.cards - self.rank) % 7) / 50
                self.back_overlay[2] = 0.5 + ((#self.area.cards - self.rank) % 7) / 50
                self.back_overlay[3] = 0.5 + ((#self.area.cards - self.rank) % 7) / 50
                self.back_overlay[4] = 1
                overlay = self.back_overlay
            end

            if self.area and self.area.config.type == 'deck' then
                self.children.back:draw(overlay)
            else
                self.children.back:draw_shader('dissolve')
            end

            if self.sticker and G.shared_stickers[self.sticker] then
                G.shared_stickers[self.sticker].role.draw_major = self
                G.shared_stickers[self.sticker]:draw_shader('dissolve', nil, nil, true, self.children.center)
                if self.sticker == 'Gold' then 
                    G.shared_stickers[self.sticker]:draw_shader('voucher', nil, self.ARGS.send_to_shader, true, self.children.center) 
                end
            end

            -- Draw debuff shader if the card is debuffed
            if self.debuff then
                self.children.back:draw_shader('debuff')
            end
        end

[sturdy canyon]

deck of equilibrium:

[sturdy canyon]

thats not very normal is it

[polar schooner]

so question about dx tarot curses... are the icons for them meant to disappear once you fulfill the criteria to lift the curse or is it a marker that the curse cannot appear again

[urban grail]

me when people actually use my mod: ❤️ 😍 ❤️‍🔥 💝 💖 💓

[polar schooner]

no rare cards

[urban grail]

yeah that's a shame

[polar schooner]

...?????

oh there is a fallback curse, neat

[woeful prism]

Thank you for the reply. I tried inserting this code but it doesn't work. What am I missing?

[gilded vortex]

Did you overwrite the existing function instead of hooking?

[lean dune]

you can just change G.C.SO_1 in your mod code without overriding set_globals

[woeful prism]

This is the code in the lua. So hooking, right? I have moderate coding skills...

[gilded vortex]

I mean, as you wrote it it looks more like an overwrite than a hook 🤔

[tranquil vessel]

victin wants you to "wrap" around the original function, and replace all of its calls with the wrapped version
aure's solution would probably work too though

[lean dune]

in fact, set_globals is called before mods are loaded, so you could only possibly change it with lovely

and if the overwrite was being applied, all other colors would be gone from the game, which would have caused major issues

a hook would equally have no effect

[woeful prism]

Ok, I'm in over my head... What should I put into mod lua to overwrite the suite colors?

[lean dune]

G.C.SO_1 = {...}

[tranquil vessel]

G.C.SO_1 = ... with all the hex values you already have there

[gilded vortex]

Oh so that’s why it doesn’t break

I was trying to understand why it didn’t break which is why I asked if it was a hook or not

I wasn’t trying to suggest hooking

[woeful prism]

Crashes the game https://pastebin.com/RchmYMKA

[gilded vortex]

Your hexes aren’t hexes

Well, Hearts’ isn’t

[grand geode]

hearts has one extra character

[woeful prism]

right!

[grand geode]

please don't reply ping me, thanks

[lean dune]

yeah I'm pretty sure the game doesn't allow hexes to be 7 chars

[woeful prism]

no more game crash, but it isn't working

[gilded vortex]

I think it might allow 8 though

[gilded vortex]

Try SO_2

Or change the contrast

If the game is still open

[lean dune]

yeah, for alpha values

6 or 8, but most definitely not 7

[grand geode]

yeah its RRGGBB or RRGGBBAA

[woeful prism]

Tried SO_2 and SUITS... same result. Change contrast? Man, here was I thinking it would be easy... The comment says these values are for the high contrast suit colors. I'm using the standard suit colors.

[west hill]

SO_1 is normal colours

You could try setting SO_1 and SUITS, I’m not sure where the game overwrites the values

[woeful prism]

This is my full lua file. Maybe someone can spot the problem https://pastebin.com/siiFmzkA

[tranquil vessel]

well that was a fun rabbithole

somewhere, at some point the colours get saved in the function LOC_COLOURS at misc_functions:1493

when I override (or hook into) that function I can change the colours

[west hill]

for suit, _ in pairs(G.C["SO_1"]) do
    local colour = (SMODS.AltTextures.Suit[name].suits and SMODS.AltTextures.Suit[name].suits[suit] or SMODS.AltTextures.Suit["Default"].suits[suit] or nil)
    G.C["SO_1"][suit] =  (colour and HEX(colour) or G.C["SO_1"][suit])
    G.C.SUITS[suit] = G.C["SO_1"][suit]
end
``` this 100% works though

it even updates live

[tranquil vessel]

oh, that's cool

but I'm new to steamodded, and I'm getting an error on AltTextures?

[west hill]

AltTextures aren't released yet

[tranquil vessel]

bruh

[woeful prism]

Could you edit it in in my lua? Tried some variation, but the game crashes.

[west hill]

but in that code snippet the AltTextures stuff is just grabbing a table of suit colours like this

suits = {
        Clubs = "1e7a46",
        Spades = "255e85",
        Diamonds = "d18a18",
        Hearts = "ff4ca1"
    },

[tranquil vessel]

yeah doesn't work for me if I try something like this

suit_table = {Hearts = HEX('ed2324'), Diamonds = HEX('3bb3f8'), Spades = HEX("000000"), Clubs = HEX("ffffff")}

for suit, _ in pairs(G.C["SO_1"]) do
    G.C["SO_1"][suit] = suit_table[suit]
    G.C.SUITS[suit] = G.C["SO_1"][suit]
end

[tranquil vessel]

this works for me though Colosso, should probably try that

[west hill]

are you on smods 1.0?

[tranquil vessel]

... I am, and now that you say it, that might be an issue

[west hill]

I don't know why that wouldn't work for you then :/

oh, your keys aren't capitalised

[tranquil vessel]

oh, that might do it huh

[gilded vortex]

By the way @west hill do you want to add additional colors?

[woeful prism]

Should your code be inside function SMODS.INIT.FourColorDeck() or outside?

[gilded vortex]

I had code to generate a Wild color that smoothly transitions between the four different suit colors, and it automatically updated when changing colors

[gilded vortex]

No INIT in 1.0

[tranquil vessel]

^ depends on what version of steamodded you're using

[west hill]

I wasn't planning on adding any additional colours like that

That sounds interesting though

[tranquil vessel]

proper capitalization doesn't fix it 🙃

[woeful prism]

Balatro Version: 1.0.1f-FULL
Modded Version: 1.0.0-ALPHA-0630a-STEAMODDED
Love2D Version: 11.5.0
Lovely Version: 0.5.0-beta5

[gilded vortex]

That’s 1.0

[west hill]

https://tenor.com/view/shrug-gif-25269231

[gilded vortex]

It has no INIT

[tranquil vessel]

this is the working version I had

old_loc_colour = loc_colour

function new_loc_colour(_c, _default)
    suit_table = {hearts = HEX('ed2324'), diamonds = HEX('3bb3f8'), spades = HEX("000000"), clubs = HEX("ffffff")}
    return suit_table[_c] or old_loc_colour(_c, _default)
end

loc_colour = new_loc_colour

(I did change the colours for visibility btw, so you'll have to change those back)

[west hill]

oh maybe the early version of alttextures that got merged in by mistake is stopping you guys from updating the table normally

[tranquil vessel]

lmao that'd be something

[west hill]

that would also explain why mine works

yeah, I think it would load your code but then it will overwrite it when it sets the card texture to the default one

[woeful prism]

I'm totally lost now. Would you want to edit my lua? https://pastebin.com/siiFmzkA

[tranquil vessel]

something like this

--- STEAMODDED HEADER
--- MOD_NAME: Four Color Deck
--- MOD_ID: FourColorDeck

end

loc_colour = new_loc_colour
----------------------------------------------
------------MOD CODE END----------------------

[grand geode]

that is extremely old code

[west hill]

@tranquil vessel can you comment out lines 430-434 of utils.lua in the steamodded files and try the for loop again?

[tranquil vessel]

sure

[tranquil vessel]

yeah that fixes it

[west hill]

good to know

I suppose when the final version is merged anyway people should migrate to using that to retexture things

[tranquil vessel]

How long will it take for AltTextures to be merged? If it's gonna be a while, might be nice to remove those lines from utils.lua so other people don't trip over the same thing

[west hill]

I have a fully working version that is available to test but ejwu wanted to change a few things

It works! Thanks a lot for the help. At first it didn't because of the capitalisation of the variables Hearts, Diamonds, Spades, Clubs. It has to be hearts, diamonds, spades, clubs.

[tranquil vessel]

Ah alright. Good luck then :)

[tranquil vessel]

Nice! I'll be honest, I fucked something up in the steamodded headers when copy pasting 😅

didn't think it would but it did

should now also be fixed in my original message

[woeful prism]

No wories, I didn't copy the header

[maiden oak]

I don't know if this is the correct place to ask this but is it possible to modify the quickrestart mod to automatically restart until an ante which contains an arcana skip with a soul card in it? (or does such a mod already exist?)

[tranquil vessel]

I haven't heard of the quickrestart mod, but maybe https://discord.com/channels/1116389027176787968/1242974974701080617 is what you're looking for?

[maiden oak]

thanks a lot! i'll have a look

[white scarab]

Yeah, Brainstorm has this functionality

[crude hazel]

how get install streammodded? i tryed and no mod folder appeared

[white scarab]

You must create it

[crude hazel]

oh

bruh

make one then put mods in

and thats it?

[candid sable]

You can try and maybe it works

If you didn't mess anything else up

[fervent owl]

if you have lovely installed, yes

[crude hazel]

can i name it anything or it has to be named mods

[fervent owl]

folder with mods has to be named Mods

[crude hazel]

ook

thx

[crude hazel]

still dont work, what am i missing?

[fervent owl]

.

https://github.com/ethangreen-dev/lovely-injector/releases/tag/v0.5.0-beta6

[crude hazel]

i click Windows download right

[fervent owl]

yes

read readme

for the project

[crude hazel]

when i open it there is only 1 thing named version.dll

is that right

[fervent owl]

https://github.com/ethangreen-dev/lovely-injector?tab=readme-ov-file#manual-installation

[crude hazel]

i read it all b4, i still dont get it.
what to do after i copy version.dll, and added a "Mods" folder. then put a mod into it (unziped, and the whole folder)

[fervent owl]

where did you put version.dll

[crude hazel]

in balato folder

[fervent owl]

yeah, so when you start the game you should get a console

which would indicate that lovely is installed

[crude hazel]

i did

but mods are not working

[fervent owl]

does steamodded work?

do you get a "mods" button in the main menu

[crude hazel]

its brainstorm mod

[crude hazel]

no

[fervent owl]

that appears with steamodded only

if you just need brainstorm, I believe the folder needs to be named Brainstorm

like

Mods/Brainstorm

otherwise it won't work

[crude hazel]

does it look ok

[fervent owl]

nope

[crude hazel]

whast wrong

with it

[crude hazel]

?

[fervent owl]

go into explorer, and in the path paste this %AppData%/Balatro/Mods

well

%AppData%/Balatro/

then press enter

[crude hazel]

Then?

It says “this folder is empty”

[blissful nebula]

create your mods folder there

and put your mods there

[crude hazel]

Oh

And name is “Mods”

Right?

Cap m and all lower

[blissful nebula]

I assume anyway, I'm not a windows users but it's similar to whatb you do for mac

[blissful nebula]

I think so

[crude hazel]

I can’t make a Folder

Oh wait

I’m stupid

@fervent owl sorry

U prb rageing at me rn

[blissful nebula]

I think stupid went offline lol

[crude hazel]

He will see it later

[blissful nebula]

[crude hazel]

Wiat

[crude hazel]

Nope

[blissful nebula]

[blissful nebula]

[crude hazel]

[west hill]

Can you screenshot your mods folder?

[west hill]

Okay so you don’t have a mods button because you haven’t installed steamodded

[crude hazel]

...

[tepid apex]
