Made the mod pack I've been working on public, and made a thread for it. Check out if you're interested. It is basically just the mods I happen to play with, but I think it makes for an interesting semi-curated experience

[candid sable]

Good to see a worthy competitor

[fallow bramble]

Competitor lmao

[candid sable]

Well I was joking lol

My packs just are one month old so I am a noob too

[agile cosmos]

holy based

[grand geode]

dimserene wrote that

lma

[agile cosmos]

lmao nice

[candid sable]

It's literally copy-pasted

[grand geode]

personally i would shitpost more

[candid sable]

Be your own guest 🙂

[brisk seal]

a thing

[west hill]

You should be able to search my posts for some guides to creating the tab and using ui elements

[west hill]

Removed from hand or deck?

[grand geode]

the effect is removed

[brisk seal]

you should specify that

[gilded vortex]

What does it do?

[grand geode]

~absolutely nothing~ (on its own)

i'll just say that having Universum bumps this joker up to an Epic

[candid sable]

Nice

[west hill]

Are the pebbles new cards or is it just added to your current hand cards?

[gilded vortex]

I think the inactive text should be on the Pebble source, unless this is shared across multiple differently keyed Pebble sources

[grand geode]

if you know the mod, there is no such thing as a new card

[grand geode]

this is in case there are multiple of the same joker, also i was running out of space lol

[gilded vortex]

As I said, differently keyed

If it’s multiple of the same it should still be on the Joker

If the text doesn’t fit either make it fit or rework the effect 🤔

Anyways, that’s just a suggestion. It’s your mod

I didn’t mean to come across as telling you what to do :<

[grand geode]

anyways i just straight up removed that restriction because funny

[gilded vortex]

That’s a good rework

[brisk seal]

actually got an any rank card working

[lean dune]

how does it work?

[brisk seal]

well i recoded the entire get_straight function

should i go to modding-dev?

[lean dune]

yeah sure

[steel halo]

how do i install mods

[lean dune]

https://github.com/Steamopollys/Steamodded/wiki/01.-Getting-started

[steel halo]

wait before i mod

is it worth it

to not get achievements

[next bronze]

achievement enabler mod

[steel halo]

ohh alr

[next bronze]

i wouldn’t use if you’re using a super broken mod tho cuz then getting achievements for that would be lame

[agile spire]

i am just done with completionist+ and am looking for mods to expand my jokers and mechanics what should i try?

[steel halo]

i wanna do cryptid

[next bronze]

i mean depending on the achievement the game being easy doesn’t really affect anything

cuz some of them are just rare circumstances

[steel halo]

is this correct

[lean dune]

looks good as long as there isn't another Steamodded folder inside that one

[steel halo]

no there isnt

do i delete the example mods

[next bronze]

no

they’re not enabled by default

[steel halo]

alr

[next bronze]

if u want the achievement enabler it’s in there btw

just drag it out into your mods folder

[steel halo]

alr

willl do

i dont get this bit

[lean dune]

that is for making mods yourself

[next bronze]

^

[lean dune]

you're good, just need to add the mods you want into your mods folder

[next bronze]

no need to worry about anything else you can just play

[steel halo]

ohh alr

cool

[swift matrix]

can anyone make sense of this crash?

happened while trying to play this 2 pair

I'm guessing it might have something to do wyh BBBalatro's flag

The newest joker I added

or maybe their mummy going negative

[latent nimbus]

took me a while to understand this, you should probably write it as "of hand played's base Chips and mult"

[grand geode]

fuck i wrote the wrong trigger again

it's "At the start of each hand"

[latent nimbus]

👍

[junior rock]

has anyone made a mod where you can play challenges at different stakes?

[grand geode]

not yet

[west hill]

did some art 👀

[fathom geode]

guys

is there a thread on how to mod on mac os

[lean dune]

https://github.com/Steamopollys/Steamodded/wiki/01.-Getting-started

[fathom geode]

thanks!

[junior rock]

• has anyone made a pity system for chance based effects? i.e, if you don't hit it, you have a higher and higher chance the next time it activates

[swift matrix]

there's a joker from a mod (don't remember which) that does that for all probabilities whenever a lucky card doesn't hit

[junior rock]

ah thank you, I'll look into it. just wanted to know if the concept had been tried so I could test it out

[swift matrix]

I also remember another joker with a chance/pity based system I don't recall the details of

[junior rock]

if you remember which mod it's from please let me knoww

[fathom geode]

where's balatro's save directory on mac?

😭

[candid sable]

¿

It's in there somewhere

[lean dune]

~/Library/Application Support/Balatro if I'm not completely mistaken

[swift matrix]

also your linux one is oudated I think

[fathom geode]

doesn't exist

[gilded vortex]

👀

[fathom geode]

but the save files has gotta be somewhere

[swift matrix]

I know there's multiple symlinks, but I have no steam folder in .local, and I use "~/.steam/steam/steamapps/compatdata/2379780/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/AppData/Roaming/Balatro" to get to my save folder

@lean dune

[candid sable]

I don't know, maybe you are required to create the folder?

[fathom geode]

Lemme see I guess?

[swift matrix]

that doesn't really make sense for the whole balatro save folder

[candid sable]

I really don't know

[fathom geode]

Unsolved

[swift matrix]

can you search your whole system for "settings.jkr"? Wherever that file is is your save folder

very clunky solution I know

[fathom geode]

w

lemme see

time to test my hardrive

[lean dune]

Alright good to know

[fathom geode]

i just decided to tormenting my ssd

couldn't find it

neither on the application package content

[swift matrix]

so like.... you do have Balatro installed, right?

[lean dune]

• if you do, have you actually launched the game?

[fathom geode]

jeez

I have 30 hours of play time

how couldn't I

(altho an L to me, I have never gotten my hands on a cavendish)

is there a way to access steam save backup?

maybe i can see it there

[swift matrix]

not sure that's an L when I still haven't

[swift matrix]

And you're also logged in to the same user account you installed the game with?

dorry for the silly questions

We're just confused because evrything I (And presumably the other folks) can find says that saves foor mac are at Library/Application Support/Balatro

[fathom geode]

POG

[fathom geode]

wait a sec

I played the game with steam family sharing at first until I've decided to purchase it

[swift matrix]

Unninstall the game and reinstall it. That will probably put your saves in the normal place

[fleet bronze]

Can someone tell me how to mod balatro

[candid sable]

^ & please do some research

[fleet bronze]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q9q-UIN1Q5I

this is safe?

[candid sable]

Do not

[lean dune]

no

[candid sable]

That is so ancient

[lean dune]

fricken 0.7.2

[fleet bronze]

ok but

how

[candid sable]

This

[fleet bronze]

i dont get it

[swift matrix]

First, download Lovely. Download he zip file here for Windows (assuming you're on Windows)
https://github.com/ethangreen-dev/lovely-injector/releases/tag/v0.5.0-beta6

Inside that zip there's a file called version.dll

put it in the same folder as the game exe, just that file

Then youdownload stemmoded with the green code button here: https://github.com/Steamopollys/Steamodded

The getting started guide that was linked beforesays what the save data folder is for Balatro. Go inside that folder and make a folder called "Mods"

Extract the steamodded zip into that folder, keeping it in the steammodded subfolder, but making sure not to nest an extra folder inbetween

so it should look like Mods/Stemmoded-main/[the contents of thesteammoded repository]

Now, you're ready to download mods. Put whatever ones you download alongside steammoded in your Mods folder

[fathom geode]

nop

I am currently using the M series macbook tho

does that make the difference?

[fleet bronze]

im pretty sure that i did all that

but it just starts as normal

C:\Users\joghu\AppData\Roaming\Balatro\Mods\Steamodded-0.9.8\Steamodded-0.9.8\core

Is that wrong

[swift matrix]

I actually have just started maintaining a modpack, which provides all of the mods I personally play with:
https://github.com/GayCoonie/Coonies-Mod-Pack

If you decide to go that route, it comes with stemmodded. Just install lovely and use the provided Mods zip archive as your mods folder

[fleet bronze]

the version.ddl delets itself everytime i start balatro

[swift matrix]

ywa, you should be using 1.0,, which is the green code button I mentioned. 0.98 is outdated. Also that looks double nested

[fleet bronze]

Actually it just randomly deleted itself without even having the game open

[swift matrix]

that's your antivirus

[fleet bronze]

ah

[swift matrix]

add an exception in Windows defender for the Balattro folder

[swift matrix]

y'know it probably does

[fathom geode]

hell

I found it

fuck the default hiding system folders option

now I am at peace

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CRORiWw9iBU&pp=ygUQam9obmtuZWUgYW5kIGlsbA%3D%3D

[fleet bronze]

C:\Users\joghu\AppData\Roaming\Balatro\Mods\Steamodded-main\Steamodded-main\core

so like this?

[swift matrix]

yes, but without the double steammodded-main

I was trying to say not to do that

[fleet bronze]

but i dont think

i can install mods

isnt there supposed to be a mod button ingame?

[swift matrix]

ye, there is. You need to git rid of the extra layer of steam-modded main

the files listed here should be directly at mods/stemmodded-main

[fleet bronze]

OKAYY

it works

thank you

[swift matrix]

np :3

[fleet bronze]

does anyone know where i can get the cryptid mod?

[swift matrix]

there's a thread for it in this server

just browse https://discord.com/channels/1116389027176787968/1209506514763522108 for mods

[normal hollow]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aUr0gXE77rk

[swift matrix]

There's also the mod index for everything in same place

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1aoJrrC7Y-dkvJwBu_U6amelYnoCrZgWqpoGRAfHN1ys/edit?usp=sharing

[swift matrix]

I thought to ask that but disregarded it for some reason

my bad

glad you figured it out though :3

[fathom geode]

I just wish that the steam workshop can be implemented, NOW

[fathom geode]

any clues on how to solve this?

I just wanted to play some modded balatroooooo

https://tenor.com/view/cheese-smiling-friends-crucifix-i-just-wanted-my-cheese-i-just-gif-630160009877714355

solved it

but now this

[swift matrix]

What mods are you trying to load?

[next bronze]

is cryptid making my hands just go back down and score instead of having each individual card scored? or is this a bug

[fathom geode]

fem joker on reddit

really cute looking

[swift matrix]

I'd ask in the cryptid thread

[next bronze]

alr

[fathom geode]

https://github.com/DanganMachin

[swift matrix]

make sure the"Fem Jokers" folder with the assets folder and lua file is directly in your mods folder and there isn't an extra layer

like Mods/Fem Jokers/[files]

[fathom geode]

oki

Thank you @swift matrix

now I'm truly at PEACE

[swift matrix]

ayyy awesome

yw :3

[fathom geode]

now just waiting for full waifu-cation deck mod + steam workshop implementation

[robust carbon]

I don't think workshop implementation is unfortunately happening any time soon

at least natively in steam - I know I've made the suggestion before of a mod searcher

[swift matrix]

Nor is it terribly desirable according to the technical side of the community

[robust carbon]

Steam Workshop definitely leads to the problem of incredibly outdated mods

looks over at Isaac mods that haven't been updated in years

[normal hollow]

That's Talisman, you can enable animations in the settings

[fathom geode]

nooooooooooooö

[swift matrix]

tbh for simple texture packs like that, I could see them doing their own thing and that'd be what's on the workshop

Don't really needsomething like smodded for that

[robust carbon]

for sure

[lean dune]

workshop tends to make it unnecessarily hard for mod devs to update their mods in order to make it as easy as possible for end users

In addition there's the issue that lovely would in no way be compatible

[hard granite]

hi , do you know how can we create a mod for balatro?

[lean dune]

https://github.com/Steamopollys/Steamodded/wiki/

[swift matrix]

thw you ask Steammodded the person how to make balatro mods

[lean dune]

wouldn't that be steamo?

though at this point, sure

[hard granite]

thw ? im sorry english is not my principal language 🥴

[lean dune]

saying I've become Steamodded is fair enough

[swift matrix]

don't worry about it. I was just pointing out that the person who you asked happens to be one of the main people behind the mod engine we use

[swift matrix]

fair poinr. I guess I forgot about them

[hard granite]

damn okay nice , thx

[gilded vortex]

if steamo is important then where’s Steamomodded? smh

[swift matrix]

tfw =" that feeling when" if you're looking for the actual meaning btw

[lean dune]

tbh you misspelt that

thw

[swift matrix]

pffft

I suck bad at typing it seems

[gilded vortex]

Thw = tenebrous hippopotamus wonders

[swift matrix]

nothing new

[swift matrix]

lmfao

[hard granite]

ups wrong mb

[gilded vortex]

🤔

[fervent owl]

it's a setting in talisman (mod that comes with cryptid). Go to setting -> talisman -> and untick on disable scoring animations

[next bronze]

oh thanks

[urban grail]

guys i need ideas

i have this main mod of joker that enhance their abilities mid run, but i still need the abilities for 5 jokers

i ran out

here's my ideas:

PT JOKERS

• create planet cards
• retrigger scoring cards
• give money
• copy cards
• • mult/chips for every other PT joker you have
• create other PT jokers
• level up played hand
• create tarot cards
• always draw the best cards
• • joker slots
• reduce blind chip requirement
• • hands
• • discards
• xmult for every other PT joker
• destroy cards

i need 4 more ideas

[fiery kayak]

Create spectral cards?

[urban grail]

that is too powerful for the missing jokers

[fiery kayak]

Is there a theme or something you're doin?

What's a pt joker

[urban grail]

the jokers from the mod

[urban grail]

each joker has an ability, but this ability gets better if you use the tarot corresponding for that joker

I need:

• justice (uncommon joker)
• moon (common joker)
• sun (common joker)
• judgment (common joker)

[fiery kayak]

Why would granting spectrals be too strong?

[urban grail]

the ones that create planets and tarots are uncommon

[swift matrix]

Why can't there by a rate spectral granting joker?

[urban grail]

the rarity is fixed for every tarot

the one for Lovers must be rare, the one for Star must be common etc.

[swift matrix]

I see

[urban grail]

these are all the abilities if you want more context
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1_RLL7Bk8Su05qax3R1DJyBjJddgBoBUnJxbPQ7vu1Po/edit?usp=sharing

[nocturne lava]

What about a probability joker? Might be better suited for fortune, but, could move what you have on fortune to another and make Fortune a probability increasing joker.

[urban grail]

an upgradeable Oops all 6s?

[nocturne lava]

Basically.

[urban grail]

that's valid

[urban grail]

ill move the current Wheel of fortune's ability to The Sun and make this its new one

still need more ideas

[paper matrix]

Is it me or does the Chad joker not retrigger?

It says retrigger the leftmost joker 2 additional times, I assume that's the same effect as 2 brainstorms

But in shop it doesn't retrigger

But during rounds it does from the looks of it

[urban grail]

Chad retriggers scoring cards, not Jokers

[latent nimbus]

what are you trying to retrigger

[paper matrix]

blueprint

which retriggers like 7 other blueprints

which retriggers boredom (powered by a handful of oops all 6s)

which retriggers a whole bunch of hacks, iteriums, hanging chads and the joker that gives 1.5x mult on 7's and 2's

did i forget to mention the 2's are also red sealed and echoed

i also have crustulum

[timid nexus]

no chad triggers playing cards

like the ones you use to make hands

[blissful nebula]

Retrigger jokers don’t retrigger other retrigger jokers

[fringe marsh]

how can i fix this? getting this error every time i open balatro and cant play

[tranquil vessel]

my best guess is that you should try reinstalling the latest versions of lovely and steamodded

[haughty grail]

Error

Syntax error: game.lua:4: '=' expected near 'Game'

chat what am I doin wrong

[tranquil vessel]

try reverifying your files through steam

[haughty grail]

hmm

[haughty grail]

luanched but no mods tab

[tranquil vessel]

make sure your anti-virus isnt eating lovely's version.dll - if it is, read https://github.com/Steamopollys/Steamodded/wiki/01.-Getting-started#about-anti-virus-issues

[haughty grail]

shouldnt be its listed as an execption

[tranquil vessel]

so the command console is popping up alongside the game?

[haughty grail]

yea

[tranquil vessel]

then something probably went wrong with your steamodded installation

make sure it's not nested and in the right spot

[haughty grail]

yea im gonna try again real quick

mods directory acquired, but im having trouble downloading the cryptic pack

cryptid*

[tranquil vessel]

oh, cryptid? that ones comes bundled with steamodded and talisman iirc
also has an installation tutorial video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aUr0gXE77rk

[haughty grail]

ayy tysm it works

[rare garnet]

Huh

[grand geode]

permanently disabled by t-09-87 i'd assume

which fluorescent doesn't protect from but it should

[rare garnet]

Yeh i know

I'm just so flabbergasted, i got finessed

[knotty roost]

what mods does drspectred use?

[floral pivot]

So I am thinking of making a texture mod and for the time being i'm wondering...
How do the foils and polychromes and negatives and such work with the jokers? Does it just slap a filter on the sprite or is it more complex?

Well... that and the number cards

[woeful finch]

in simple terms it’s a shader

[floral pivot]

Eh, I'll figure it out when I'm done making the cards

[onyx geode]

Trying to load a mod into Balamod. I've got Balamod working and can see their little mod list tab in game, but I'm trying to drop a score calculator into the mod folder, but I can't find the mod folder.

[fiery hazel]

anyone here know how to force the error message to show the full path, cause for me it cuts off at balatro (like in picture but it happens to all paths, including the one that actually tells me where the error accured)

[floral pivot]

yeah... i don't think i'm making that texture mod...

it's very ugly

[candid sable]

It's lovely

[candid sable]

That needs the mods authors to amend their mod files

[fiery hazel]

i fixed the error, i accidentally left a 0.9.8 mod in the folder, but thank you so much

[floral pivot]

i'm working with an artform with very limited pieces, and i need to figure out how to make them fit together to look like the cards they're supposed to be

here's what's supposed to be hologram

[brisk seal]

selling playing cards

[fiery kayak]

For two bucks?

[brisk seal]

yes

[rugged dune]

took 94 perkeos for a negative

[grand geode]

oops

[rugged dune]

i dont even know what im looking at lol

[grand geode]

you're looking at a Lucky Polychrome Eternal Perishable Rental Banana Amplified Blessed King of Clubs with Blue Seal and Pebble as A Wee Witch's Gift

[rugged dune]

ah yeah mb

ofc

[warm hollow]

I'm trying to get Brainstorm Mod to work. When I moved the Lovely Injector .dll file to the game directory, I am getting the above screen when booting the game. I have the Brainstorm .lua files (among all the other Brainstorm files) in my AppData/Roaming/Balatro/mods/Brainstorm folder, but I can't get the game to even run at this point. Anyone able to help troubleshoot this with me? Thanks in advance!

[rugged dune]

i think you need some more enhancements on your cards tbh

verify your game files probably

[warm hollow]

It's in Users/[name]/AppData/Roaming/Balatro/mods/Brainstorm and then the luas and whatnot are in that Brainstorm folder.

[grand geode]

verify integrity of game files

[warm hollow]

"1 files failed to validate and will be reacquired."

[rugged dune]

happy to help

[warm hollow]

Now the game runs, but Brainstorm still isn't running.

[grand geode]

have you made sure that your antivirus isn't eating version.dll

[warm hollow]

version.dll isn't in my steamapps/common/Balatro folder, so it might be.

Will version.dll show up in that folder if it doesn't get eaten?

[rugged dune]

if its the folder w balatro.exe then yeah

[grand geode]

https://github.com/Steamopollys/Steamodded/wiki/01.-Getting-started#about-anti-virus-issues

[warm hollow]

Ok, that must be the issue then. I have the zip file, I just need to make sure it actually makes it there unscathed hahaha

Ah, ok. I had disabled real time protection, but not the rest. Let's see if that works.

It's working! Thank you both!

[rugged dune]

i literally didnt do anything lol

have fun w your mods tho

[warm hollow]

Nevermind then hahaha

ty!

[brisk seal]

Oops! all jokers

[fossil iron]

hey, is there a guide on how to install mods in balatro, I want to try them but I don't see how to do it.

forget it, I already found one

[candid sable]

Which one did you find

[fossil iron]

the cryptid video tutorial

[candid sable]

That one is perfect

Well it's mathisfun_'s right

[warm hollow]

Is Brainstorm mod how DrSpectred/Balatro Univiersity gets seeds that do Judgement into a particular joker? Like he uploaded a video yesterday where he rolled a Mega Arcana into Foil Stuntman and I don't know if there is a way to speedline that process. Maybe I need to investigate Debug Mode to choose more narrow parameters for the seeds?

[grand geode]

yes

[fossil iron]

it works

[fossil iron]

yes, its the mathisfun video

[rare garnet]

Aww shied

[shadow wave]

Is there a mod for more speed options?

[candid sable]

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

[shadow wave]

Thank you

[unborn gust]

Hey does anyone know how to reset or fix a save profile after deleting mods? I deleted my mods and got a error when I tried to press play. I uninstalling, reinstalled and verified the files. It has to be my save profile because when I created a new profile, it does not give me the error. Anyone know how I could try to fix this?

[candid sable]

%AppData%/Balatro/1/save.jkr

[unborn gust]

Yeah, save.jkr, meta.jkr and profile.jkr. What about it?

[candid sable]

delete it

[unborn gust]

Isn't that my save data

[candid sable]

Oh

By that you might want to put your Mods back first

[unborn gust]

Do you know if the mods modify the base game's save file?

[candid sable]

I mean, what do you eventually wanna achieve ? Return to vanilla?

[unborn gust]

Yep

Which I think I can, If i create a new profile but I kinda wanna keep my 200 hours of progress lmao

On a brand new save profile it works fine, no errors

[candid sable]

I think save.jkr is your current run, and profile.jkr is your all time progress

[unborn gust]

Okay thanks, ill try that

[candid sable]

But you can move them out as backup first

[unborn gust]

Nah, does't work

Ill try fix it later

Thanks for the help tho

[candid sable]

Did you end your last run mid-run?

[lean dune]

If your save used Talisman, you can't take it back to vanilla, currently

[floral pivot]

So I'm still thinking of making that balatro texture pack...
There's limitations in the artstyle, and that combined with my lack of art skills is making stuff hard
I can only place characters on these tiles to make the card, hence why this joker is crappy and blocky
Any tips?

That and I'm also allowed only 5 colors total

I don't think I'm making this mod lol

[civic yoke]

Is there a mod compatible with steammodded 1.0 that is good for lag reduction?

[fallow bramble]

I don't think there are any optimization mod whatsoever?

[gilded vortex]

I mean some mods disable animations

[azure dagger]

"WE WERE RIGHT THERE, MAN"

[urban grail]

Development continues...

5 jokers out of 22

I am considering the idea of doing a triple gainer with a twist and landing on my neck

[wise dragon]

for some reason my game gets an error when I try to start it with the Cryptid Unbalanced mod and the Crimson Ultimate Card Kollection mod

[latent nimbus]

do you have talisman

[wise dragon]

those are the only 2 mods I downloaded

[latent nimbus]

you need talisman for cryptid

[wise dragon]

ah okay thanks

[wise dragon]

okay, so it didn't work, so then I removed both talisman and cryptid and it still didn't work

[lean dune]

well if you don't send the error at all, we can only guess what it might be 💀

[azure dagger]

debuff = {suit = 'Clubs' + suit = 'Spades'}

That'll debuff the Clubs & Spades suits, yeah?

[lean dune]

ugh that is not valid syntax

[wise dragon]

something to do with "Atlas"

[lean dune]

please just send the error message

[azure dagger]

Any ref I can use?

[wise dragon]

okay is there a channel for that or just do it here

[lean dune]

just send it here

[lean dune]

you'll want a recalc_debuff function (or debuff_card, also works but is deprecated)

https://github.com/Steamopollys/Steamodded/wiki/08.-SMODS.Blind#api-methods

[lean dune]

dude why is it sideways

[wise dragon]

idk

[grand geode]

lol we know

[azure dagger]

Double check your Atlas

[lean dune]

anyways follow the install instructions better

you need steamodded 1.0.0, you have 0.9.8

[lean dune]

actually yeah

[wise dragon]

ah, thanks

[lean dune]

oops, sorry for ping

[grand geode]

aure pinged me that means steamodded is getting cancelled

sorry guys

[lean dune]

too bad

[lean dune]

just something like this should do, recalc_debuff = function(self, card, from_blind) return card:is_suit('Clubs') or card:is_suit('Spades') end

[azure dagger]

That was quick, thanks

[azure dagger]

Worked first try.

[wise dragon]

I did steps through 1-6 and I still end up with the same error

[grand geode]

you need to follow this guide https://github.com/Steamopollys/Steamodded/wiki/01.-Getting-started

and if you can't that's on you

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[lean dune]

i have a feeling they can't

[wise dragon]

would the steam injector in the assets be a problem for that?

[lean dune]

yes, it is for 0.9.8 and 0.9.8 only

1.0.0 requires lovely

[grand geode]

i wonder why

[lean dune]

who knows

[candid sable]

Actually should we just remove those injectors whatsoever

[lean dune]

if I remove them from the 0.9.8 release, people will just try to grab it from 0.9.7

[wise dragon]

so, what would happen if I, say, did the injectors before I did the rest of the stuff?

[candid sable]

Like they didn't ever existed

[lean dune]

you'd need to uninstall it first by getting a fresh executable

wherever you should happen to source it from

[gilded vortex]

That’s why you make a 0 bit injector that doesn’t do anything

[candid sable]

No, that's why you make fake injector that redirect them to this page instead

I've cracked the code

[fossil iron]

https://tenor.com/view/igor-igor-breakdancing-igor-breakdance-igor-persona5-persona5-gif-21467675

[fossil iron]

they look amazing

[grand geode]

pretty fun to figure out

[random silo]

Make it remove the sprite and then it gets real

[grand geode]

actually this is more fun than what i had planned lmao

[odd sonnet]

Maybe not the sprite, but the cost. Right now it is a new player trap as anybody who has put some hours into the game +- knows what the cards do. However, fewer people remember the cost of cards and packs, and also it will have a half-antisynergy with Egg and Gift Card

[random silo]

Uhhh it aint doing anything when you can so easily recognize jokers by their art

Cost recognition doesn’t matter all too much

[gilded vortex]

Cool! Is the border done with a row inside another row?

[lean dune]

that's not confusing enough, they should be randomized

[white scarab]

hmmm

[wild thunder]

is that balatro

no wait uh

is it cryptid mod

[white scarab]

maybe

[polar schooner]

is this secretly 0

[feral jolt]

Not mentioned: Also sets ante to ω+1

Enjoy comparing your infinity to the ante's infinity, you will always lose that comparison

[white scarab]

No its just the normal values

[random silo]

Wait what code card is this

[white scarab]

CRASH

[gilded vortex]

No way Cell from Dragon Ball confirmed???

[ancient sorrel]

xchips... why :(

[white scarab]

because… I can

(but ngl I don’t really think it would be a good idea in vanilla)

[ancient sorrel]

Math is fun youre the last person who would think xchips are a good idea

[ancient sorrel]

It is in the game. Its called xmult

[white scarab]

wait no way

🤯

[lethal meteor]

can someone explain to me how to install alpha of steammodded? I am pretty sure I followed all steps properly yet it still opens normal balatro instead of modded

[gilded vortex]

Did you install lovely

[lethal meteor]

yes went to local files through steam and put version.dll there

previously when opening balatro it opened lovely window first

now it doesn't apper for some reason

my mods folder looks like this

[swift matrix]

Is version.dll still in the folder with the exe?

[lethal meteor]

I tested this and no

each time i open the game

steam deletes it

is steam seeing it as virus or smth

put lovely 4 times already, each time game refuses to load. When I terminate steam and go to look into game files version.dll is gone

[tranquil vessel]

That's not steam, that's your antivirus. Read about it here: https://github.com/Steamopollys/Steamodded/wiki/01.-Getting-started#about-anti-virus-issues

[lethal meteor]

It worked now, thanks!

[polar schooner]

where is a pin to install the modloader/how it works?

@fossil iron

[polar schooner]

what have i done

[fossil iron]

it worked, ty

[random silo]

destroyed cards incorrectly?

[polar schooner]

i am getting mysterious gaps in my hands as well

[random silo]

Oh yeah you destroyed cards incorrectly

[polar schooner]

...i think debuffed latetita might be half-destroying cards

but not properly finishing the job

the game crashing and re-entering the run put me back at 49/49

[timid nexus]

cryptid alr has a bunch of xchips why should this matter so much

[dark osprey]

I just learned that the modding community for this game was a whole ass thing 30 seconds ago and I am fascinated - this is so neat omg

[lean dune]

yeah we have all the good stuff

[rigid jewel]

eee6 scoring, gambling, almost 70 mod chaos, more gambling, and a whole lot more.

[tranquil vessel]

https://tenor.com/fUos4xpauJH.gif

you mean a whole lot more gambling?

[hardy brook]

Okay Gonna ask this with a little context

Do you think if you have a bunch of jokers for a mod, do you think it's okay to break from the norm for something interesting?

Here's what i mean

Card: Red Fred

Left is the edit that makes it interesting
Right is the joker that keeps to the conventions of Ortalab

[swift matrix]

I absolutely think that it's okay to stray from comvention, and jokers in general are fairly free-form. Plus. It's (probably) early enough in ortalab to be less strict with conventions like that overall. One exception might stand out a little, but if there's ust more variety in general things will go together just fine.

Though I have to admit on an aesthetic level I kinda prefer the contrast on the right

[hardy brook]

Both are understandable, we just couldn't decide whether it was good to stray from it or not. if people like the black border one more then that's completely fine, that's the default anyway

[urban grail]

thanksss ❤❤❤

[urban grail]

which one you prefer?

I did this recoloring but I don't know if I like it better now or with full recoloring

[lusty spoke]

full

the contrast will be less

[urban grail]

new ones

hopefully now it is easier to remember which tarot is linked to which joker

[jolly gorge]

this is gonna sound silly, can someone step-by-step guide me through how to set up Steamodded? there's a specific mod I want to have but I haven't gotten Steamodded to work, either I'm missing something or I did it wrong

[grand geode]

https://youtu.be/aUr0gXE77rk

[jolly gorge]

ur my savior honestly

[shell tundra]

anyone have a link to that mod that drspectered used during pride month that turns spectral cards and joker art trans?

[grand geode]

#1247528518842191971

[iron onyx]

so which of these chats is better for getting feedback on a joker concept? here, or #💻・modding-dev?

[grand geode]

concept? here

[iron onyx]

so i feel like a lot of people hate current dagger, so i thought up this balance idea:

[brisk seal]

does it just randomply pick?

[iron onyx]

maybe if it has multiple?

but if it only has one, it obviously just takes the only one

[brisk seal]

well everything has sell value

[iron onyx]

ah, fair

it probably prioritizes score values over sell value

[brisk seal]

fun concept

[iron onyx]

so if you dagger jimbo, you gain 2 mult

if you dagger stuntman, you gain 125 chips

[brisk seal]

does it take conditional mult/chips.xmult?

[iron onyx]

i'd imagine so; but for x mult, it'd be (x-1)/2+1 instead of a simple division

[fiery kayak]

yeah the conditional I'm curious about cause like

blue joker fluctuates

so does uhhhhhh

Abstract

[iron onyx]

would probably take the value at the time of blind selection

[brisk seal]

i feel like it hsould jsut be simplt divison

[iron onyx]

@brisk seal it is, technically.

it's half the INCREASE

[brisk seal]

if i have an X1 Mult stencil this shouldn't take X1 Mult

[fiery kayak]

I like the spirit of this idea but I definitely think it takes too much user interpretation to figure out wtf is gonna happen when certain jokers get mulched

[brisk seal]

i think the idea is simple i most cases

especially after you use it once

[fiery kayak]

there's definitely more edge cases than you expect there to be I'm sure of it

[grand geode]

i love mod compatibility !

[brisk seal]

it takes mult at time of destruction and ignores conditions

what else must be elaborated on

[iron onyx]

there are some cards that give both chips and mult... and cards that give score per card and those that give score per hand.

[brisk seal]

fair

[iron onyx]

but the idea i had is that the dagger would just take half of any listed value

making per card jokers synergize poorly with them, because they're usually low

so let's take something like... photograph for example

technically, purely halving the X mult would be X1

but that's not fun

so that's where the formula comes in

[brisk seal]

it should add X1 to itself

[iron onyx]

not quite

[brisk seal]

as the name implies

well teh description

[iron onyx]

it adds HALF of that

[brisk seal]

the base should be x1

• x1 to get x2

[iron onyx]

so acrobat should add x1.5 to get to x2.5...?

[brisk seal]

yeah

[fickle elbow]

I haven't announced this yet even though its been a few days and some people saw it. I am working on a new mod that adds different versions of everything in-game https://discord.com/channels/1116389027176787968/1267615217613803580

[iron onyx]

fair

i was thinking in the sense that a mult of X1 is essentially the "zero"

because X Mult never goes below 1 in base game.

[brisk seal]

i personally would be upset if i didn't get half of the xMult even though it said half

[iron onyx]

i suppose that's fair.

basically: if the joker would contribute to score, half of that score value is permanently added. if it doesn't? half of its sell value is added to dagger's sell value

which could still synergize with jokers like swashbuckler, or turn it into a poor man's econ joker.

throwing no-score jokers at it to store its sell value for later

or throwing score jokers at it to make it a power player

[fiery kayak]

wait wait wait wait wait

we're all being so dumb about the Xmult issue

you just

have the ceremonial dagger start at X1

[iron onyx]

i mean, obviously

[brisk seal]

read

[fiery kayak]

no yeah I get that but that literally solves all the math

[iron onyx]

i was thinking of it in terms of "okay this essentially gives 0.5x extra mult"

yeah, it would start at +0 chips, and +0 X1 mult

[fiery kayak]

yeh no weird equation is needed, if you get Seeing Double and steal half of X2 which is just X1 then you just add that X1 directly to the dagger

[iron onyx]

fair

i was thinking of it in terms of "seeing double adds X1, so give it X0.5"

but yeah

[fiery kayak]

I mean ultimately I don't think it's a good idea for a change because it's gonna be a pretty MASSIVE buff

but it's a neat idea

[stray skiff]

well that's menacing

[iron onyx]

fair... i was just thinking of SOMETHING it could do instead of just "...oh, add double this usually very low value to flat mult"

and since it seems like the kind of dagger that could like, steal your soul or something

[brisk seal]

i say just remove the xMult part

it's OP

[iron onyx]

yeah, fair

just limit it to chips, mult, and sell value?

[brisk seal]

yeah

[fiery kayak]

idk you could spend 5 dollars on a reroll to get flash card +2 mult or you could spend 5 dollars on a victim to get +4 mult on dagger, your call buster

[brisk seal]

victim?

[fiery kayak]

a sacrifice yes

like

buy a $5 joker

[brisk seal]

oh i missed the word "a"

[fiery kayak]

oh lmao

Cere dagger eating a stuntman to get 125 chips permanently added to every hand with no downside would be nuts

like, the rework is neato but it'd also need to be rare for SURE

[brisk seal]

hanging chad can be OP

when used with good jokers

but it's common

i feel the same applies here

[fiery kayak]

nah

cause you could eat like

wily joker

and get a permanent +

uhhhh

40?

50?

how much is wily again?

it's a decent chunk of chips is the point

and then after like 4 rounds of eating basic common chip jokers you're basically at stuntman status

and, that's chips you'd be scoring with no caveats, no "score a flush" requirements or anything just RAW points

[iron onyx]

but the problem with that philosophy is something i think people fail to realize:

the further you get, the fewer things matter for your overall score.

because there's no real way to exponentialize chips, high chip counts usually stop mattering in the later antes

flat mult is the next one to stop really mattering, especially if you get to leveling your chosen hand enough.

if you get consistent chip and mult jokers? congrats, you've got a big stat stick you have to remember to keep moving

[grand geode]

who up [CENSORED] in this [CENSORED]

([CENSORED] is legally distinct from face down)

[lean dune]

[CENSORED] blind when

all cards are drawn permanently censored

[grand geode]

lmao that'd be funny

[fiery kayak]

you can't use a tarot card on a censored playing card to peek underneath it I presume?

[grand geode]

no because it completely replaces the front

not the back

[fiery kayak]

so yes

then I'd say yeah it is legally distinct

[candid sable]

[REDACTED]

[latent crescent]

E.G.O. stuff when?

[grand geode]

how

[latent crescent]

For example, tarot that extracts another tarot/voucher/spectral/planet from anomaly

[iron onyx]

okay, so how's this draft 2 of my dagger rework?

[lilac brook]

favourite joker in cryptid mod?

also whats bullet bill

[lilac brook]

HUH?

[lilac brook]

okay i guess that might work?

[cerulean flare]

what happened😭

[lilac brook]

what is this?????

[cerulean flare]

meanwhile I have 9 consumable slots🤔

[lilac brook]

whats the dice thing and the thing in the middle

[cerulean flare]

d6 jokers mod

cryptid

[lilac brook]

so literally one of them is just insane money and one of them is celebrating 7 2

[cerulean flare]

yeah

can't believe i win

this again

[tired roost]

Fresh new idea:

"Chuckles the Joker"
whenever a Joker is destroyed or sold, it has a 1/2 chance of creating a negative copy of itself, and (if stakes allow) 1/4 chance of the copy being eternal

this is a reference to the amazing saga of Chucles the Clown

[lean dune]

why not regardless of stake

[tired roost]

well, if that, then it is unlocked by beating the final boss with an eternal in the deck, so that it isnt the intriduction to eternals

[lean dune]

fair

[primal rivet]

well i accidentially skipped a booster pack during the opening animation and the game shit itself

[tired roost]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LsYq41y17Zc&list=PLey9K4Ep7by46SgvAjgBH46gomef2imnUY&index=40
Chuckles started in this video, but the other animations in this playlist have some other amazing chuckles moments

[gilded vortex]

I mean it’s a mod

If people are modding the game before knowing all the mechanics that’s on them

Now if you introduce new mechanics sure

[tired roost]

fair point

[cerulean flare]

similar to mine

[tired roost]

in other news:

is there something like a modding tool for Balatro?

like MCreator, in the sense that it allows for very easy mod making, but also if you want you can mess in the code for more precise/specific mods.

cause i realy want to make custom mods

[gilded vortex]

There’s the Steamodded API

[lean dune]

yeah, we do. there's steamodded providing APIs for most common game objects (-> https://github.com/Steamopollys/Steamodded), for precise messing with source code we have Lovely (which is used by Steamodded, but any other mods can use it too) -> https://github.com/ethangreen-dev/lovely-injector

straight spectrum houses anyone?

[tired roost]

what does API stand for?
i been dabbbling with mods for various games and it almost always comes up.
it is like a thing that makes coding easier? like, transforms your iffy code, into somehting the game takes seriously?

[lean dune]

a programming interface basically, it gives you a way to simply specify the properties of your object without having to worry too much about how the game's code handles it

[tired roost]

also, making sure.
the "Steamloaded" thing for mods, i assume runs based on running the game via steam. right?

[lean dune]

that name is completely unrelated to Steam, the original creator of it just so happens to call themselves Steamo

either way only PC modding is supported officially

[gilded vortex]

You are only allowed to mod the only official version, the Steam one, anyways

[tired roost]

so in theory it would work IF I theoretically had a... questionably obtained copy of the game?

[gilded vortex]

Straight Flush Spectrum Pair Houses when

[lean dune]

depends on how questionably.. there's certain executable replacement mods on nexus that have a version of Steamodded pre-injected, those will not work

[tired roost]

it just that... i have friends that game a fake copy

yeah, i want to give my mods to friends

[lean dune]

they should buy a legitimate copy of the game

[candid sable]

Your whole disclosure is questionable anyway 🤔

[lean dune]

We don't give support for cracked version around here, I won't judge for doing whatever with the code once you do have a legit version - though it's not to be discussed in here

[tired roost]

im so damn broke....
but i think it's on sale now... maybe i could....

[lean dune]

it's literally $15

[tired roost]

thats like, 3 weeks of my regural money getting....

[lean dune]

what

[tired roost]

fucking shit economy here

[lean dune]

that sucks

[tired roost]

dus international stuff is expensive af

they why im peruing game making as my job, cause when economy sucks this bad, it is lucky to make international money

what yall gonna spend money cause why not (15$) for me is not a bad cash

too bad Steam takes 30% and the first 100$

so for a cupple of weeks after felease no monye made at all

[lean dune]

i mean balatro already had a pretty good userbase pre-launch from the demos

[tired roost]

unless i gather a pre-release crowd that want to have my games

[lean dune]

but most games don't have that kind of platform

[tired roost]

after i get anything in there in the game, i definitly will be making related content, like yt shorts and tweets and reddit posts, so that people are drawn into it

maybe try giving free copies to some streamers and such in attempt of them playing it and telling chat that it's not bad

i know Pirated Software (deciving name, nothing about piracy there) does stuff like that

and obviously im trying to get some deep hidden lore in there to get the Theorists crowd in there

maybe i cna get it on Opera GX releases calendar

[grave panther]

consider this a warning about discussing pirated copies of the game and i urge you to cease discussing this topic

[tired roost]

yeah

[blazing badge]

does anybody know what is the size for the cards on the game?

[rare shell]

71x95

[urban grail]

71x95 in 1x, 142x190 in 2x

[tired roost]

well, if doing art, only the pixel dimensions metter

Starry Night is 148cm x 184cm in 2x, but thats a pointless metric, why double the size

[lean dune]

it's just that both sizes are needed due to the pixel smoothing setting

[tired roost]

no.
in every single tool that allows for creation of pixel-art, antialiasing can be turned off, and it is only in effect when scaling pre-existing images

and Balatro (obviously) uses x1 sprites

and when scaling up images it can be done by %, so the double size info is irrelevant

[lean dune]

like I said there are 1x and 2x sprites that can both be used, depending on if pixel smoothing is on or not

it's practically irrelevant in the creation process though since you just need to scale the 1x sprite up

[tired roost]

no, no respecting game maker would ever make a compleatly seperate sprite thats just the copy of a smaller one.

the game scales it up in code

[lean dune]

no need to say no to that, it's how it's done in Balatro

i know it's unreasonable

[tired roost]

I refuse to believe that Balatro has a double sheet of sprites, it obviously just makes the asset bigger when displaying

[lean dune]

let me just show you

[tired roost]

i know, I MAKE GAMES

i know how it's done, and i know how redundant that would be

how pointless

[blazing badge]

It's weird, sure. But it's the game convention that localthunk has decided upon all textures in it. Probably the whole reason why the game is so accessible on low-end hardware is by not upscaling at runtime.

[tired roost]

well thats fucking stupid.
the game could be up to 30% smaller if it simply upsized the small assets

[lean dune]

not even close

most of the file size comes from sound files

[tired roost]

sprites and textures are overwhelmingly the majority of the game size (in basiclay all situations)

[lean dune]

even the 2x sprites are only like 1.7MB

sounds are 10x that

[humble saffron]

ngl it seems like fonts are far outdoing even sounds

or maybe this display is just scuffed

[lean dune]

yeah i forgot about fonts

[tired roost]

fonts are images

a letter is an image

infact, 1 font has image for every displayable symmbol

[lean dune]

anyways the fonts aren't scaled

[tired roost]

from a-z and A-Z and all 0-9 and every special character

each is a seperate image

[lean dune]

you'll save less than 2MB not having the 2x files

[tired roost]

it is infuriating how pointless having seperate sprites for x2 is

[lean dune]

it's just saving time at the cost of a bit of space

also what are you gonna do about it 💀

[blazing badge]

and saving some bit of performance lol

[lean dune]

same thing

[blazing badge]

does the wee joker and all the weird joker have the same convention?

[lean dune]

wee joker actually uses the same sprite as the regular joker and just scales the card's dimensions by 70%

[blazing badge]

good to know

thank u

[random silo]

@tired roost if you think 2x sprites are bad, wait till you see the if then tower of babel in card.lua, the fact that somehow wheel of fortune, ectoplasm, ankh, and hex all share the same code that does so much stuff its unreadable, and the literal entire ui code

[west hill]

people hate on the ui code, it's a damn sight easier to read than the calculate stack

you just have to take a little while to understand how it's formatted

[random silo]

Nah for the calculate stack you just use ctrl + f to find areas of code for certain jokers

[lean dune]

it just doesn't really help that it's terribly uglified

[tired roost]

im not saying they are bad, im saying it's redundent ot have BOTH x1 and x2

[random silo]

Ok fine

[tired roost]

you can use x1 to show x2 and vice versa

[exotic shadow]

Can't wait to go add a x100

[dusk jetty]

Ooof. Tried to install my first mod (Bunco) and immediately crashed. Couldn't even start the game. Any advice of how to fix this? I followed all installation instructions thoroughly. This is the main error text but I can send more if needed to help!

Oops! The game crashed:
[SMODS Bunco "Bunco.lua"]:400: attempt to call method 'new_suit' (a nil value)

[tranquil vessel]

Btw @exotic shadow did you take a look at the restart?

[exotic shadow]

It works on my end so idk

I don't own a Windows machine.

[lean dune]

Use the source code of Bunco, the release is for an old version of Steamodded

[exotic shadow]

Actusllt if you installed the DebugPlus dev branch and ran eval arg, what's the result?

[lean dune]

(green code button on the main github page)

[tranquil vessel]

I can take a look in an ~hour if you want, not at home right now

[dusk jetty]

Thank you!

[eager shard]

steam modded just stopped working?? i have it in the mod folder but when i boot the game up, no mods

[grand geode]

check your version.dll

[eager shard]

where do i find that im dumb

[exotic shadow]

Does anyone else actually have issued with the restart not working?

[tranquil vessel]

In the balatro game folder in your steam library

[grand geode]

crash restart has never worked for me

if that's what that means

[lean dune]

same here, just closes the game on my machine

[exotic shadow]

No toggling mod restarts

[eager shard]

ig i dont have it theen?

[lean dune]

that's the save folder

[eager shard]

oh

[tranquil vessel]

No the steam library

[urban grail]

steam -> balatro -> right click

check "Game files" or smt like that

[lean dune]

yeah just closes

on win11 in case that makes a difference

[urban grail]

you got it right when you have a folder with Balatro.exe and other files

[eager shard]

this?

[exotic shadow]

Can you modify where it restarts and remove the quit part? Does it launch then?

[tranquil vessel]

Looks like your anti-virus ate lovely, read more here https://github.com/Steamopollys/Steamodded/wiki/01.-Getting-started#about-anti-virus-issues

[eager shard]

aaaah

got it working!!

[tranquil vessel]

this?

[exotic shadow]

Oh hmm there's a space

That actually might break it

I can check when I'm done work

[tranquil vessel]

yeah, that was the issue

changing it to
love.thread.newThread("os.execute(...)\n"):start('"' .. arg[-2] .. '" ' .. table.concat(arg, " "))
fixed it for me

[exotic shadow]

Yeah that should be good

PR it

[fickle elbow]

me when flush house

[fiery kayak]

what's jester do

[fickle elbow]

its smudged jester

and it makes 3s counts as 8s, 6s count as 9s, Kings count as Aces

[white scarab]

Want to know something funny

I thought from both screenshots it let you construct full houses with suits instead of ranks

and that ability would’ve made sense with both

[fallow bramble]

Those 2 + crooked joker and you got the whole squad i think

Not the same theme but the art is somewhat alike

[exotic shadow]

Every flush becomes a full house joker.

[paper matrix]

[gritty coral]

Ok, so I just installed steamodded 0.9.8

But the mod that people have said is the most interesting (Cryptid) requires Alpha 1.0.0

[west hill]

then uninstall 0.9.8

[gritty coral]

I'm not sure how to get this alpha build

[west hill]

#⚙・modding-general message

it says right here

[gritty coral]

I apologize but I don't think I'm smart enough to figure this out

The instructions aren't clear enough

[urban grail]

you installed with Git?

[gritty coral]

Yeah

[urban grail]

just open the steamodded folder and do git pull

[gritty coral]

I never got a steamodded folder

Wait, is it called "Steamodded-main"?

[lean dune]

if it is named Steamodded-main, it should already contain the latest version

[gritty coral]

ok

[gritty coral]

Idk what to do with it though

[west hill]

click green, click download

[gritty coral]

I can't find where this link is

[west hill]

https://github.com/Steamopollys/Steamodded

[gritty coral]

Thank you. This was the one link I couldn't find

Ok, I've downloaded and extracted it

Ok, now I'm missing one step

Where do I find the 1.0.0 injector

[lean dune]

there is no steamodded injector anymore, we use lovely now

which you would know by carefully reading the install instructions

[gritty coral]

Sorry, I didn't see it at the top

My browser won't let me install it

Omg, I can't download Lovely at all

No browsers will let me

I need help

[urban grail]

you got a different browser on your pc?

i installed it with Opera

[gritty coral]

I first tried with my go-to browser Opera GX

That didn't work, and I couldn't figure out how to allow the download anyways

I then tried Microsoft Edge, but got the same problem

[exotic shadow]

Whats the error you got?

[lean dune]

opera and edge are basically the same thing, which is chrome

use firefox

[exotic shadow]

Can you like click the arrow and hit keep or whatever?

[gritty coral]

Not on Opera

[exotic shadow]

Idk I don't use chrome

[gritty coral]

I was able to click Keep on Edge, but it still wouldn't let me

This is the initial error on Edge

And this is what I get when I try to click 'Keep'

[swift matrix]

Well... don't use edge?

Or is there something keeping you from just downloading Firefox or smth real quick?

[gritty coral]

I can try Firefox

Lemme install it real quick

Ok, Firefox finally let me download it

Uhh, I tried following the guide, and tried the final step of launching the game again, but the game won't launch anymore

[gilded vortex]

Do you get an error message

[gritty coral]

No

The version.dll file keeps disappearing in the game directory

[gilded vortex]

You need to whitelist the file or the folder

Otherwise Windows Defender will keep deleting it

In my case, I had to disable Windows Defender to whitelist the file because it would delete it before I could whitelist it

[gritty coral]

Where and how do I whitelist files

[gilded vortex]

Windows Defender

[gritty coral]

Is it any of these options?

[gilded vortex]

It’s either the first or in Advanced Settings Idk

[lean dune]

https://github.com/Steamopollys/Steamodded/wiki/01.-Getting-started#about-anti-virus-issues

[gritty coral]

Omg, I hate this

I even turned off Windows Defender, and it's still not working

[lean dune]

again, this

you need two things, disabled real time protection and an exclusion of the balatro installation folder

[gilded vortex]

Turning off Windows Defender should have worked

I didn’t need to exclude the Balatro folder specifically

[gritty coral]

Ok, I had to exclude the folder

Not the file itself

[swift matrix]

It's impossible to actually turn it off completely after Windows 7

Or maybe Windows 10 pro iirc

[gritty coral]

I think it finally worked

[swift matrix]

Idk I don't use windows anymore. This kinda stuff always makes me glad for that, lol

[swift matrix]

Any nice

[gilded vortex]

As I said, turning Windows Defender off and whitelisting the file worked for me 🤔

[gritty coral]

Wait

I just played a hand, and there was no slow calculation of the hand score. It just resolved instantly. Is that normal?

Some animations aren't playing either

[swift matrix]

That's talisman I think

There's a setting for it iirc

[gritty coral]

Ok, lemme take a look

[swift matrix]

So ngl I kinda think that shouldn't be the default setting for talisman, it seems to just confuse people

[gritty coral]

Well, that didn't last long...

[swift matrix]

Are talisman and cryptid the only mods you are using?

[gritty coral]

Yes

[swift matrix]

Huh, I'd ask in the cryptid thread then. Sounds like a problem on their end

There is one thing. Did you open the mods menu at least once? I remember there being a bug that is you didn't looking at the collection or smth would crash the game

Idek if that was with cryptid tho

[fallow bramble]

Doing some run testing for the SDM_0's Stuff update and got this build 😅

[swift matrix]

(They figured out the actual issue in the cryptic thread)

[swift matrix]

Ayy dope

I think hologram is the best base game xmult scaling joker I think

Tbh mods need more xmult scaling jokers. There still aren't that many good ones

[fallow bramble]

It sure is when you have 6 DNAs

[swift matrix]

Also has good synergies with certificate and that one that adds stone cards to your deck

All the random cards are usually fine if you're doing ancient joker, especially if you have smeared.

~~Can you tell in addicted to flushes? ~~

[fallow bramble]

Smeared is good until you get the wrong boss blind

[swift matrix]

Tru

But unless it manages to debuff all 4 suits its fine as long as you aren't building around a specific color

But suit carsol+ smeared would mean all 4 suits are debuffed if it's debuffing 1

[real tapir]

Anyone knows a mod for unlocking all jokers?

[west hill]

you cant use the unlock all button on your profile?

[civic pasture]

I love the cryptid mod.

[fallow bramble]

Minecraft hotbar

[real tapir]

i dont want to unlock all only the jokers

[swift matrix]

Maybe a modular "unlock all" would make sense as a mod

Or even an option directly in steammodded

Which would make even more sense imo

[still gale]

how do i manually delete a save file from the games code? I was running cryptid and now whne i try to play a game without it it crashes because of that saved game

[swift matrix]

Can you still boot the game?

It shouldn't really keep you from just starting a new run normally, or if it's tent that masses up resetting your profile

[west hill]

You can get debug plus and unlock them then

[real tapir]

did it thank you

[winter thicket]

im sure someone has discovered this

but this is so sick in cryptid mod

using cryptid on cryptid

on white hole

[brisk seal]

very common tactic

[winter thicket]

with universum

how much is infinate

[brisk seal]

on bigNum, omegaNum, or vanilla?

[winter thicket]

cryptid mod?

[brisk seal]

worst deal ever

[winter thicket]

lol

[brisk seal]

talisman settings is on one of those systems

[winter thicket]

i see

im trying to get infinite score high card

[latent nimbus]

bigNum = ee308
omegaNum = 10{1000}1000

while you can hit bignum's infinity, you will never hit omeganum's infinity with cryptid barring some math bug

[winter thicket]

yea im on bignum
