Fair

Most crashes I get I still have no idea what exactly causes them

[muted osprey]

I generated a challenge using my script and put my challenge in the Mods folder (along with steammodded), but it still didn't come up. What am I missing?

Also, in the installation instruction for Lovely, it tells me that I need to put version.dll into the game directory, but I couldn't find the version.dll file.

[lean dune]

it's in the download from the releases

the lovely-x86_64-pc-windows-msvc.zip

[ionic sinew]

how do I get mods on mac ive got the steamodded folder through git but the mods button doesnt show when i run the game

[lean dune]

you need to run the run_lovely.sh script instead of running the game through steam

[ionic sinew]

still didnt work maybe my steammodded folder is in the wrong place? @lean dune

[lean dune]

Steamodded goes in your mods folder ~/Library/Application Support/Balatro/Mods, while lovely's liblovely.dylib as well as the run_lovely script should be in the game directory alongside Balatro.app

that one you can navigate to right-clicking the game in Steam, hovering "Manage", and selecting "Browse local files"

[ionic sinew]

wont let me open the sh file @lean dune thanks for beign helpful btw

[lean dune]

Run the game by either dragging and dropping run_lovely.sh onto Terminal.app in Applications > Utilities and then pressing enter, or by executing sh run_lovely.sh in the terminal within the game directory.

or you can type sh (with the space) in the terminal, then drag the run_lovely script into the terminal

[ionic sinew]

It aborts the program after i drag it to terminal

[lean dune]

and you have the .dylib in the right place?

[ionic sinew]

not sure what folder is it supposed to go under

[lean dune]

as i said

[ionic sinew]

this is where i go when i go through steam

[lean dune]

that's where liblovely.dylib and run_lovely.sh need to go...

the mods folder should be in ~/Library/Application Support/Balatro

[grand geode]

it's hebrew 😭

[sterile hornet]

guh

[ionic sinew]

I try to cd to that folder and get this @lean dune

[rare garnet]

[bright grove]

Hi there so it is possible to use python to mod?I never reaally got into lua. and I was just wondring

[white scarab]

The game engine is written in Lua, so not unless you make some sort of API that uses Python

[rotund whale]

this and the game crashing happen quite often when canvas

I had a run that implemented canvas just now

it crashed

let's see if I can try this again

rip

[zenith island]

is there a mod where i could load in my own joker textures? or would i need to make a mod

[brisk seal]

tbh i'd wait until after the update to start modding

it couls break steamodded potentially

[candid sable]

Do you mean retexturing existing jokers?

[zenith island]

yes

[fickle elbow]

me who's already modding🫠

[zenith island]

i cant mod, i'd prolly just kinda give up at that point

[swift matrix]

What update?

[zenith island]

the one hes gonna reveal tomorrow ig

[grand geode]

just back up your balatro

if it updates then use the old ver until steamodded is fixed

[zenith island]

so is there one or nah?

[white scarab]

I mean it could also just be an update announcement

Imagine I wake up tomorrow and half of my retrigger API patches I made yesterday don’t work

[candid sable]

There's a method that doesn't require any mods

[zenith island]

is it where you unzip the exe n stuff

[candid sable]

No you don't even need to touch the exe file

[zenith island]

then what is it?

quit teasin me here

[grand geode]

how do you feel about a three phases boss blind with score capping mechanics and changing effects every hand

[nocturne lava]

As someone who came to Lua from Python, Lua has quite a similar structure. Does have a few quirks, but it's nothing like the jump to C# or Javascript from Python. Lua should be pretty easy to pick up.

[prime cairn]

Bundle + triple tag moment

[swift matrix]

Oh my dearest Reverie how I do see your ghost wherever I do look

[grand geode]

i guess i'll start making some achievements

[prime cairn]

I do not have a good feeling about this

[grand geode]

oh don't worry about it

you just need to trigger an event to figure out what it does

[prime cairn]

Um.... what

[grand geode]

LMAO

ccd hits betmma's abilities

[prime cairn]

Um... pebble...?

This team takes ages to finish

Time to wait...

[brisk seal]

is that a super shop?

[swift matrix]

Genuinely no offense. It seems like a masterpiece. I just value the little sanity of have left

And also don't know the source material at all, lol

[grand geode]

yeah it's all good

[prime cairn]

Yes

[brisk seal]

Nice

[prime cairn]

Oh yea This #1255696773599592458 message
Fixed my problem of crashing

Oh.... that was close

[grand geode]

okay here's all the achievements

[prime cairn]

I got boredom and canvas and they keep repeating themselves

I think I did a big mistake

[white scarab]

[prime cairn]

When I get oops all 6 the loop will never end...

(probably)

[white scarab]

You can’t retrigger a retrigger joker

I tried that once and it was way too easy to just crash from infinite retriggers

And even if you capped it at a large number it’s still just way too OP

[prime cairn]

oh

How is boredom retriggering canvas then?

[white scarab]

It isn’t, probably just making the Again! text pop up

Canvas can retrigger Boredom’s retriggering of playing cards though

[prime cairn]

ohhh

I have frowny face

so is it
boredom triggers canvas
Frown face triggers
canvas triggers
boredom triggers canvas

[white scarab]

The jokers all calculate left to right still

[prime cairn]

even in 999x speed this takes so much time

[white scarab]

Use Talisman animation remover

[prime cairn]

Why does cryptid mod have so many jolly joker related jokers

I love reading this with no context as someone who doesn't use most of the mods you do

[prime cairn]

Gaslighting blind

[swift matrix]

What is that blind from?

[grand geode]

:)

[grand geode]

cruel blinds

[swift matrix]

Ah makes sense. Seems almost reasonable for that mod, lol

[prime cairn]

Is there a mod that can randomize everything?

[swift matrix]

Balatro randomizer nuzloke when?

[prime cairn]

4 cents off

[swift matrix]

Jk not actuality my thing but I found see it as being a fairly possible concept to translate

[prime cairn]

Randomizer with like a cap so it is beatable

[grand geode]

i mean there's already the Archipelago randomizer

[prime cairn]

oh

can I get a link pls

[grand geode]

no not that kind of randomizer you're thinking about

was replying to coonie

[prime cairn]

oh ok

[prime cairn]

nvm this deck randomizes the joker numbers too

I love having 0.38 more joker slots

[grand geode]

swag

[swift matrix]

Note to self, polychrome amoeba should probably just be allowed to fill up all my slots . Silly me going for utility jokers and brainstorm

choas theory and old man joker can stay though, lol

[grand geode]

oh man i suck at this game

[sturdy canyon]

nah bro, Ante 1 is so hard it took me 2 days to beat the small blind

[swift matrix]

On an extremely tangential note, I wonder how many runs I'm setting up to fail (from fewer shops and stuf) by always skipping the first two blinds of ante 1.

[safe kite]

how does everyonie have their modded balatro set up. Cause im appareently on 0.9.8 steamodded and apparently its out of date/buggy?

[cursive yew]

Uhhh... yeah, this is becoming the norm

[novel wave]

first things first verify integrity of the files on steam to uninstall 0.9.8
then you get the lovely injector's version.dll into the directory of balatro.exe (steam -> browse local files)
then you drop steamodded 1.0.0 files at %appdata%/Balatro/Mods

lovely injector: https://github.com/ethangreen-dev/lovely-injector/releases/tag/v0.5.0-beta6
steamodded 1.0.0: https://github.com/Steamopollys/Steamodded/archive/refs/heads/main.zip

keep in mind that antiviruses detect lovely injector as a virus (it injects code, like a trojan), so you'll need to add it into list of exceptions

[safe kite]

yeah i noticed that last time, i hope they just make modding official

[novel wave]

archipelago randomizer kinda already has the nuzlocke aspect implemented in reverse (it takes out jokers at the start and adds them over the course of the archipelago run) but i think either of the implementations (straight up removing jokers or simply debuffing them) could be done for a nuzlocke mod

[novel wave]

it would be cool to get an official version of lovely so ppl wont have to deal with the antivirus tweaking but imo modding is great as it is

the only thing i'd change is having the community adopt gamebanana/nexus/etc as a more or less official platform bcos browsing discord forums and githubs for mods isnt rlly my cup of tea (although official mod support would solve that gripe with steam workshop most likely)

[swift matrix]

I think that comes from skipping too fast

it happens even without mods iirc

[cursive yew]

it triggered 2 packs at the same time

that was the result

[swift matrix]

ah makes sense

[cursive yew]

and yes the run cannot continue and redirected me to main menu

lmao

[cursive yew]

Me: Rerolls store
Game: -proceeds to Alt+F4-

uhh.... something ain't right

aand if i reroll the game dies

not even an error message

i have the feeling that it has to do with Cicero ability to make jokers that doesn't add mult, tokens or retriggers negative

in the CCS deck

yep, now i'm convinced

[swift matrix]

negative Ancient and 2 stencils, not too shabby

[cursive yew]

1.5 DISCARDS

[swift matrix]

I did win, but lost on endless the next ante. Very hard to scale in that position

"virus detected"

[lean dune]

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

• don't use a chromium based browser to download

[muted osprey]

I've just downloaded version.dll and put it in the game directory. Could someone tell me why my mod doesn't show up on the mod list? Maybe there's some error in this code?

[swift matrix]

might be better ti ask in the steamodded thread

[cursive yew]

I might need to reinstall all my mods because I have zero idea which of them is making the game implode

But first, imma take a nap

Cya later plas

Pals*

[west hill]

what smods version are you using?

[muted osprey]

smods? what is that? is that an abbreviation of something?

[lean dune]

steamodded

that is 0.9.8 code (SMODS.INIT), 1.0.0 ships with a challenge API

the reason it's not loading is your header

- --- STEAMMODDED HEADER
+ --- STEAMODDED HEADER

[muted osprey]

oh steamodded was misspelled

also, I noticed a missing }, in the code, gotta fix it (and the python)

[lean dune]

anyways why 0.9.8

also the deck cards are wrong, they have no suit

(H is an undefined global, not the string 'H')

[prime cairn]

Game: choose your blind

[swift matrix]

choosing 0.7 of a blind sounds.... difficult

the other 8 should be fine though :P

[muted osprey]

I have fixed this too. However, something else is odd — the cards have no editions, despite specifying the editions in the lua file.

[lean dune]

e = 'polychrome' iirc

[prime cairn]

Take one it doesn't matter which one (it does)

[fervent owl]

wide ass pack

[muted osprey]

but isn't e already used for the enhancement of the card? or is that something different?

[west hill]

enhancement is m

[swift matrix]

huh, I wonder why that one joker I have from one of my mods that adds 3 extra choices to packs doesn't work on voucher packs

whatever you have seems to

[prime cairn]

Randomizer moment

[muted osprey]

oh m! okay (i thought that enhancements only started with m_)

[prime cairn]

Mystery pack

And a Scam pack

Got every single spectral card

The packs are actually gamble because you don't know how much is in the pack before opening

[west hill]

I have no idea what you're doing though, it might not be m in your situation

[muted osprey]

oops, there's another error

[sterile hornet]

cant even open the damn game

[prime cairn]

Holy

Time to summon tags

[grand geode]

inb4 boss tag crash

[muted osprey]

What's going on here? I changed the editions to e, but now there's another thing causing a crash

[swift matrix]

36 tags is well within what the game can handle, from my experience with Reverie

[sterile hornet]

i feel like this is an error with how i installed the files

[sterile hornet]

mmmmmm tags

[lean dune]

oops I think it also needs to be 'e_polychrome'

[prime cairn]

pickle

[lean dune]

Also please switch to 1.0.0 format, you're already using the new loader so why stick to the old stuff

[prime cairn]

Uh what the hell

[muted osprey]

what does the 1.0.0 format look like? What would my mod look like in 1.0.0?

[swift matrix]

well I guess 186 works too

interesting that they stack instead of going up off the screen like I'm used to

[muted osprey]

also, this is cursed

Why did the editions render as j_joker?

[opaque lichen]

hey,
im trying to install steammodded on Mac and there doesnt seem to be a Balatro folder in the "Application Support" folder
any tips on where it could be

[lean dune]

you've run Balatro before right?

[muted osprey]

the cards behave as their editions should, but for some reason, the editions have the j_joker texture, and the regular card info is missing

[opaque lichen]

yes

[muted osprey]

anyway, here is the updated version of the challenge editor

[swift matrix]

the problem last time when this happened was certain system files being hidden by default

[swift matrix]

.

[lean dune]

--- STEAMODDED HEADER
--- MOD_NAME: testchallenge
--- MOD_ID: testchallenge
--- MOD_AUTHOR: [ValkyRiver]
--- MOD_DESCRIPTION: created using ValkyRiver's challenge editor prototype
----------------------------------------------

    -- challenge here,

----------------------------------------------
------------MOD CODE END----------------------

Clean version:

  loc_txt = "testchallenge",
}

[bright grove]

The thing is I’m also pretty comfortable with c style languages as well

[swift matrix]

curious if you have any idea what caused this Aure. I started a new run, but I'd like to know in case it happens again

[lean dune]

doesn't look familiar, but seems like the boss table of a blind might not have the data it should

[muted osprey]

Also, what about the editions using the j_joker texture?

[prime cairn]

Oh mah gah

Oh no....

[lean dune]

oops i was sure e was for editions, I should have checked the code first

e is for enhancements, d is for editions, and g is for seals 💀

[swift matrix]

plus probably because I updated mods mod run I'd guess. I expected something to break quicker if at all, lol

[fallow bramble]

As you would expect

[lean dune]

g sort of makes sense since there was only gold seals initially

[prime cairn]

Tags.... used?

Oh great now I need to wait to play the blind...

boss blind money tags...

wow

):

[prime cairn]

yea uhhh

doing the pickle multiplying thing made the game unplayable

[sterile hornet]

guh

[grand geode]

update your mods

[muted osprey]

I have changed my Python script to have e for enhancements and d for editions. For example: d = ‘polychrome’.

[sterile hornet]

mmk

[safe kite]

man some of the crypid mod boss blinds are fucked

Disable Odds, Disable Uncommons

absolutely brutal

[fervent owl]

disable odds is a walk in the park until your run depends on odd todd

windmill is indeed annoying

[safe kite]

i was doing a 7s build

[grand geode]

wow that was such a nothing burger announcement

[lean dune]

they teased another teaser

[rare shell]

"we're going to update" well no shit sherlock

[fervent owl]

what a weak announcement ngl

[grand geode]

peak

[cerulean flare]

2025💀

[fervent owl]

yeah, that too

[grand geode]

and an everyone announcement too

[fervent owl]

also across next months they reveal other 2

[prime cairn]

I hope they do a official mod support

[solemn cape]

NEW AND EXCITING WAYS TO PLAY BALATRO GUYS

[candid sable]

2025 guys

[lean dune]

i hope not 💀

[fervent owl]

so see ya in 1 month for the 2nd announcement

[lean dune]

at least not with workshop

[rare shell]

can't wait for balatro to stole at least 50% of my jokers

[grand geode]

we're announcing that we are adding a blackjack mode

major gameplay update

[fervent owl]

[sturdy salmon]

That is way more long term of an announcement than I thought it'd be

[solemn cape]

Multiplayer Balatro Hold'Em

[safe kite]

oh also "no hand containing a pair" is fucking BRUTAL

[fervent owl]

yeah

old balatro bosses suck

there's a reason why they got changed

[lean dune]

i mean i wasn't expecting "here we're releasing this beta for a new game update rn", but 2025?

[sturdy salmon]

I guess that's like balatro 2.0.0

[lean dune]

1.1.0 probably

[fallow bramble]

Can't wait for the content update to add 4 jokers

[lean dune]

balatro minor version numbers basically are major

[safe kite]

yeah 2025 is a bit rough

[lean dune]

i can't fathom what 2.0.0 would even mean

[white scarab]

It was literally “we’re going to update the game!” lol

[grand geode]

watch as the two other cards take a month to reveal

[lean dune]

over the next couple of months 💀

[white scarab]

Which is good, but tbh a 2025 update is something I would’ve expected anyway

[fallow bramble]

So true wtf

[white scarab]

When they hit 3 million and 4 million sales

[grand geode]

TRUE

[sturdy salmon]

lmao

[muted osprey]

Oh, I wanna say, be careful with having too many new jokers — the chance of any particular joker showing up in a run is decreased by a fair bit, so this may need to be balanced by increasing the default shop slots to 3 or something

[fallow bramble]

Ok so who's modding in the "Gameplay Update 2025" card?

[white scarab]

I think from playing mods there’s definitely room to add more

[grand geode]

WAIT THAT SAID NEXT COUPLE OF MONTHS

LMAOOO

[fallow bramble]

Yes

[white scarab]

After 250-300 it will start getting packed

[lean dune]

watch the next announcement be tomorrow for dndg

[fallow bramble]

I wonder why the huge delay, is it because the dev works solo?

[fallow bramble]

I mean the bundle feels obligatory at this point

[lean dune]

this aged well

[grand geode]

sure did

[white scarab]

Alright time to be inactive with Immolate for the next six months

[swift matrix]

that's uh... not a bad thing if the jokers are decent

too bad base game jokers usually suck ass

hence why we all feel the need for specific decent jokers to show up

[latent nimbus]

i feel like the problem is make them too weak and "why bother"

[swift matrix]

I play with over 700 jokers and it's a much better experience having a large pool of mostly decent jokers

[fervent owl]

#⚙・modding-general message

[swift matrix]

yes, that's what thunk jokers tend to be

[latent nimbus]

granted this is the base game, modded is a different story

modded you have references to go off of, and even other modded jokers

[manic jasper]

What if I made a challenge based off of one of the September demo challenges?

Hatred for transit

• If a played hand contains no face cards, immediately lose the run (face cards don't need to score)

Based of of [demo challenge #10](#🧩・challenges message)

[swift matrix]

(this is what I originally came here to post)
Modded joker rarities sure are something

Never thought I'd see the day where a common is almost as good as a legendary. Better for my build as it was already so built up. "consecutive" isn't a downsife for this type of build, lol

ofc the infinite Lovers doesn't hurt :P

Stow/Stash area has... interesting effects sometimes

Also my probabilities got permanently halved for this run and I have no idea why

[dusk geyser]

quick question how would i fix balatro crashing with mods? it's not that the mods are breaking my game but this one particular game i have just will not work

like, the game ceashes when i load it up

[lean dune]

with that amount of information

[dusk geyser]

whenever i press play

[lean dune]

i would say the run probably can't be saved

just start a new one

if you want me to be more specific, you need to give more information

[dusk geyser]

no like whenever i try to start a new run it just crashes

do i just need to reinstall all of my mods

[swift matrix]

Well, RIP, lol. I guess 120 chips was better than another +150 or so mult when I aleady had so much mult. Whoopsie

[lean dune]

I can't tell what's going on with the amount of info you've provided

not all crashes are created equal

[sterile hornet]

hmmmmm
now im not exactly sure whats going on

[dusk geyser]

let me get the logs

i think my saved game is corrupted

[fervent owl]

oh heh
https://fixupx.com/BalatroGame/status/1821184862264684809

"this summer"

[dusk geyser]

@lean dune

[fervent owl]

they said few months in the announcement

[grand geode]

isn't summer like. almost over

tf

[fervent owl]

yea exactly

[grand geode]

what are they smoking....

[white scarab]

2. mobile release coming 2025
3. probably like a merch drop or competition or something

I’m calling it now

[grand geode]

there likely won't be any more gameplay announcements so uh yeah

[dusk geyser]

do i just reinstall all of my mods to fix it? or

[lean dune]

what mods do you have installed?

[stoic oar]

that announcement sounds like nothing but sorry not sorry we are not releasing anything not even a single bug patch for the rest of 2024

which is somehow a good thing for the mod comm to grow big

[fervent owl]

[grand geode]

we're safe from steamodded shitting itself for the rest of the year

woo

[lean dune]

I think that crash does relate to your save being broken, you might just have to delete your profile's save.jkr and that could work

[lean dune]

trust I'll find a way

(oops sorry, ping)

[grand geode]

thank you local crashomancer

oops, not thank you

[fervent owl]

Im hoping that thunk will do his usual shenanigans when cooking, and will post "leaks" on twitter because this announcement just sucks 😭

[dusk geyser]

okay

[lean dune]

ikr we deserve better 💀

[dusk geyser]

i'll try that, ty

[lean dune]

why is there a mods folder in your mods folder...

[grand geode]

i miss the demo balatro

[haughty hinge]

Jan demo was peak

[lean dune]

thunk being in chat at all would already be a gift

[fervent owl]

he wont

because server is kinda too big lol

[dusk geyser]

i got mods for my mods

[swift matrix]

Dunno if he needs to hear me say most of his jokers suck :P

[fervent owl]

maybe he would still pop up in updates threads

[normal hollow]

the jokerdisplay files should be in their own folder unless you're using a really old version

[grand geode]

vanilla balancewise they're fine

[haughty hinge]

I missed when thunk randomly appeared in chat frequently

[lean dune]

i miss https://canary.discord.com/channels/1116389027176787968/1200988288337576056

[swift matrix]

Maybe I've just been playing mods for too long, lol

[haughty hinge]

Ww3 was amazing

Shadow was going crazy on the bugs lol

[swift matrix]

I honestly think it's the lack of quantity that I really dislike about the base game, most modded jokers suck too ngl

[white scarab]

Yeah Shadow ran out of bugs to find now

Which is kinda crazy

[stoic oar]

balatro grows fast

maybe a bit too fast bc it makes players wanna let it stop at a certain point and let the modders take the wheel, within one year

minecraft spent ~8 years to achieve it

[safe kite]

well i may be able to break infinite, fingers crossed

[latent nimbus]

I think its because everything around the game changed

the internet well
changed

[swift matrix]

yeah I'm guilty of not really wanting official content updates

[white scarab]

I started modding on like day 1 lol

[lean dune]

why have balance when you can cryptid the cryptid

[safe kite]

i mean i think a simple Modding patch and a few more jokers

and then done thats all really imo

[latent nimbus]

at the end of the day, we need a base to go off of

[lean dune]

i "only" started modding on release

[safe kite]

seeded dailies, and probs thats all

[latent nimbus]

vanilla is that base

[fallow bramble]

Amazing

[white scarab]

Content updates for vanilla sound cool

I think that’ll revitalize the part of the community that sticks with vanilla

[stoic oar]

i betmma man is cooking smth bigger than that announcement

[swift matrix]

I'd kinda prefer a sequel, because unlike something like Minecraft, I think that'd still make sense for Balatro. One decent update (hopefully) won't hurt anything though, and I admit I am pretty curious what he cooks up

[fallow bramble]

True

[stoic oar]

LMAO seriously make it a voucher or sum

[latent nimbus]

I dont think a sequel would be needed this early

[white scarab]

I’m also guilty of not working enough on my mods that enhance vanilla

[swift matrix]

nah, definitely not. I meant a few years out

[white scarab]

Like I really should try and get the big Ankh update out soon, that’ll be huge for the WR hunting community

[latent nimbus]

yeah few years and id say sequel? go ahead

[gilded vortex]

I disagree, I think Balatro having content updates is probably better

[fallow bramble]

Cryptid enhances vanilla by removing it

[gilded vortex]

I don't see what a sequel would do at this point

[white scarab]

Who needs vanilla when you have m

[haughty hinge]

Well in Minecraft's case it had a ton of updates that added things, which we haven't got in the full game yet

[swift matrix]

worse for mods staying operational, lol. And Idk I prefer offline games to be static

I'm kinda old fashiioned I guess

[latent nimbus]

and a lot of stuff that would 100% not be in vanilla

[latent nimbus]

but they are vanilla themed

[gilded vortex]

I'm more in the camp of making offline games dynamic

Go, nerf and buff those paper card game cards

[lean dune]

i mean for most things mods do there's a layer between them and vanilla code

so most of what would happen is having to update steamodded

[gilded vortex]

But in hindsight it makes sense an update will come next year

[lean dune]

except if you use lots of lovely patches, then screw you

[stoic oar]

i kinda wish balatro can just release some annoying 0.1 updates to give some qol improvements. at least fix the bugs

[gilded vortex]

thunk took a while developing Balatro proper, so developing a full update is going to take longer

[swift matrix]

yeah, fair. All the spaghetti under the hood should stay in mostly the same shape anyway

[gilded vortex]

than the time since release

[lean dune]

unrelatedly

[haughty hinge]

I would love to relive the demos and the experiences of being in the community at its early stages

[lean dune]

should I merge the poker hands PR?

like rn

[stoic oar]

hire aure dvrp itayfeder math myst betmma (add more) and we'll get a GAMEPLAY UPDATE 2025 every two weeks

[haughty hinge]

I still remember almost getting banned because of save file manipulation in dms

Well it wasn't an almost

[swift matrix]

I have a feeling there's a reason Think is a one man show

not a bad thing by any means

[fervent owl]

he explained it in interviews

[white scarab]

I remember getting warned for mentioning modding too much

(Modding community was there but localthunk wanted it to be private during demos)

[haughty hinge]

Hehe think

[digital belfry]

I can see why as that can lead to the distribution of early builds

[swift matrix]

pfft

[lean dune]

thℹ️nk

[swift matrix]

Maybe he once did Think, but he's damn well Thunk now

[grand geode]

thmnk

[haughty hinge]

Vocal Stump is a very good game dev

[cerulean flare]

what's the effect 🤔

[digital belfry]

Gameplay Update Joker: x2 Gameplay

[haughty hinge]

Update the game everytime you win with this Joker

[latent nimbus]

x2.025 mult, gains 0.2025 mult every time you beat a blind

[digital belfry]

So it's like Showman but adds new jokers

[swift matrix]

x0.000000025 mult, pinned to right

[digital belfry]

When sold, those new jokers are removed from the shop

1 in 2025 chances to sell itself

[haughty hinge]

Every modded Joker is now vanilla

[cerulean flare]

if sum of ranks of card played is between 20 and 25, randomly gain $2, $0, $2 or $5

[stoic oar]

for each ante, create a rare modded joker

[lean dune]

+20 mult, +25 chips. 20/25 chance to increase by 20.25 after each hand played

[swift matrix]

Even Actually Square Joker and Scalae

[haughty hinge]

Scalae is a Frankensteins monster of a joker

[safe kite]

man cryptid is something else

[white scarab]

Only modded Jokers can appear in shops and Buffoon Packs

[gilded vortex]

Updates the game

[safe kite]

damn still only e53k

[swift matrix]

oh that's an actually good effect

[feral jolt]

Me repeatedly saveloading a pre-endless naneinf score game

[swift matrix]

I like

[stoic oar]

gameplay update 2025 slander lets get into it

[fallow bramble]

Something to do with the 4 suits would be nice since it's present in the art

[haughty hinge]

Remember the totally amazing trailer for the game

[digital belfry]

You need Double Scaling

It's wilder

[safe kite]

true, i shoiuld just roll with my double canvas + number blocks

i have well over 10k a round

lol 1 round and morse code is up to 5k

[digital belfry]

Money

[haughty hinge]

Get scalae if you can

It's worth

[safe kite]

i should just blast through antes for vouchers for more cards in shop

[fervent owl]

X2 mult, activates in 2025

[lean dune]

X2025 mult after balatro gets an update

[white scarab]

Gains X1 Mult for each major update after v1.0.1f (currently: X1 Mult)

[fervent owl]

😹

[white scarab]

Has to be hardcoded whenever a game update breaks your mod

[digital belfry]

All jokers and cards give x2025 mult. Activates only on the day where Balatro updates in 2025 after discarding 2025 [0] cards.

[latent nimbus]

waluigi

[lean dune]

I'll make it oversaturated and force the update rn

[digital belfry]

And cards, Mr Squidward. And cards.

[lean dune]

the joker must remain historically accurate

[fallow bramble]

Omw to make it glitched and revert to demo state

[digital belfry]

Ok new idea

Gives 2025 chips if the only cards scored are: 2 2 0 5

[cerulean flare]

if played cards and rest cards have exactly 2 diamonds, 0 spades, 2 hearts and 5 clubs, gives 2025 chips

[digital belfry]

Yes 0 of something

[stoic oar]

LMFAO i love this

[fallow bramble]

Godamn

[white scarab]

Should I add to Cryptid /j

[cerulean flare]

a wild card synergy🤔

[stoic oar]

it gives aiz's mod (if yall ever played it)

fourth wall type sh

[stoic oar]

no /j

[safe kite]

ad a "sell all jolly joker" button to cryptid please

[digital belfry]

Cryptid Joker: gains x0.25 mult for every Cryptid update. (Currently (xIDK) mult)

[stoic oar]

gains x0.25 mult for each commit to cryptid's repo

[fallow bramble]

+5 Chips per github push

[stoic oar]

[lean dune]

mfw x200 mult

[stoic oar]

mid (cryptid-wise)

[white scarab]

On my way to artificially increase the commit count

[white scarab]

Kinda related

@lean dune have you looked at the retrigger API pull request yet?

[cerulean flare]

create a joker with random effect (like lucky cards with my real random voucher) when round begins

[lean dune]

very roughly

[fallow bramble]

For each bug-reports post on the Cryptid discord, +1 glitched playing card

[grand geode]

oh right retrigger api pr

[stoic oar]

how random will it be

[grand geode]

i can finish nothing there now

[digital belfry]

Leftovers Joker:
Gains x5 Mult for every file wrongly downloaded.

[lean dune]

i should get poker hands merged

do i make docs first or later?

[fallow bramble]

Docs are a myth

[cerulean flare]

when [context like jimbow], [effects like lucky cards effects]

[grand geode]

Community Joker: Gives X0.1 Chips per installed mod

[white scarab]

as a side effect it also makes calculation api better

[white scarab]

I also need to make docs for retrigger API

[digital belfry]

Remote Control:
Select a card from your deck at the start of the round. This card will be the first one to be drawn.

[lean dune]

better calc being stale:

[grand geode]

rip better calc

[white scarab]

Retrigger API is what better calc aspired to be

[stoic oar]

thats already a thing in aiz's mod that i just mentioned above

[white scarab]

It still does most of the work only when it knows the joker did something btw

[grand geode]

idk what that is

[stoic oar]

its only on github so not many ppl here ever heard of it i guess

[grand geode]

is the blank message when returning {} fixed on steamodded's side

[white scarab]

You don’t need to return {} anymore

[stoic oar]

just another joker mod but it has some fun ones like giving chips based on the current volume setting

[grand geode]

then what do

[white scarab]

To show that something was done without returning a value you now return nil, true

[digital belfry]

Lap Flag:
Gain x1 mult for every Ante replayed.

It's like 2 occasions in vanilla, but Cryptid says otherwise

[safe kite]

cat tag doesnt do anything does it

[white scarab]

Waiting for gameplay update 2025 to code an effect

[safe kite]

fuck i think i just rtolled past the scales

well 278k gold still some rolls

[fervent owl]

it meows wym

[safe kite]

🔫

well didnt hit inf

but did crash xd

[safe kite]

ooh e to the e

i regret this immediately

[grand geode]

i'm terrified of mods breaking my challenges

[swift matrix]

Oh.... the game isn't locked to 60 fps. Finally got my actually decent laptop working

[robust carbon]

Yeah

If you turn off vsync

I think it goes up higher

[swift matrix]

You don't realize how unresponsive spinning rust and ~8 year old integrated graphics are until you're back on something decent, lol

[robust carbon]

🤔 I know I can at least get 144

I get you tho lowkey

[swift matrix]

seems to lock to multiples of 60 as is

that must be my panels refresh rate

on second thought

[robust carbon]

ye

I have 144

hz

[swift matrix]

nods I'm not totally technologicallyt illiterate, just not a gamer

lol

[robust carbon]

Lord I wish that a new deck creator could be made I wanna make a bunch of decks but I don't wanna code 🙏

[swift matrix]

Actually pretty good with tech overall

[glass turret]

lrn2code

[swift matrix]

same bro (on the not wanting to code)

[robust carbon]

i shan't

(i probably will learn at osme point)

[glass turret]

you wont’nt

[swift matrix]

I too shan't, but probably will. Too bad I'm so ass as self-teaching

I did fine in python class

but that was like 6-7 years ago

[glass turret]

Oh so uou did well in python class? Define it

[swift matrix]

👀

I think you're trying to bamboozle me

[safe kite]

im gunna get every damn joker in the game before i get scalae

[glass turret]

No i just want you to define a class in python

Should be easy :3

[swift matrix]

~~ just use debug plus~~

[robust carbon]

isn't it just def class():

I took a basic python class in college a long ass while ago

[grand geode]

let's play guess the cards

[swift matrix]

Thank you for remembering where I did not, lol

It's been a long time and I haven't used it at all

[west hill]

They’re tarot cards!

What’s my prize?

[grand geode]

are they

[robust carbon]

yknow... it could be a fake out

are they part of like the E.G.O cards?

Or a similar gimmick

[safe kite]

its not enabled :c

[safe kite]

dude in the chair thats cross legged, hermit, not sure

[glass turret]

https://docs.python.org/3/tutorial/classes.html

[robust carbon]

Oh fuck me

it's not def it's class

class Class: would be right I'm sorry like I said

I don't religiously python code

and then you define shit in the class

using def

[glass turret]

The lovers, the tower, and strength /j

[glass turret]

def are for function declarations eyup

[safe kite]

wait 1 joker replaced every hand is hilarious

[rare shell]

what is this challenge supposed to be?

[robust carbon]

Something to do with boss blinds I can see, can't copy consumables

Yeah I think it may have to do with the dawn / noon / dusk ordeals?

that are in lobcorp

[swift matrix]

This is what I have to show from back when I learned python (And promptly forgot it)

[glass turret]

Theoretically the most unfair challenge when you can reroll your jokers into tenebris

[glass turret]

Is this bejeweled 0

[swift matrix]

lmfao, basically

[safe kite]

we got him boys, take him away to jail forever

he downloaded an ip

[rare shell]

myst is your challenge supposed to get rid of editions because there's still a few things left (in bunco at least)

(I'm in pain from not be able to ping)

[safe kite]

i got exodiad. It wont let me play flush 5, it wont let me play anything but flush 5

[lean dune]

o7

[swift matrix]

And the spaghetii, oh the spaghetii

[safe kite]

obsidian orb is hilarious

i mean hey, you had comments

thats better than most

[swift matrix]

I think it was a requirement for the assignment, lol. It was the final project and I wanted to get a good grade

[glass turret]

I have an awesome idea for a boss blind

“All your jokers become blueprint or brainstorm”

[swift matrix]

Somehow my ass, with this mess, got 200%, that's 100% extra credit, lmfao. Idk what that says about the rest of the class

[lean dune]

wtf lmao

[white scarab]

200% is wild

I thought a math project where everyone got like a 110 was crazy

[swift matrix]

Rural community college professors are a different kind of animal

[safe kite]

mans is just ruining the grading curve

now because of you someone is at -100% :c

[swift matrix]

I'm sorry, but not as sorry as whatever poor Python interpreter had to try to run their "program"

[safe kite]

the first part loosk fine

though the second and third ss is a mess

[swift matrix]

That's not all of it, of course, but yeah it gets pretty. ugly. I can only imagine what the people's code looked like that didn't get super duper extra credit, lmoa

[white scarab]

You should see localthunk’s code

Card:calculate_joker is worse than this

[random silo]

Nah not really

[grand geode]

more...

[random silo]

Card.calculate:joker is easy to navigate with ctrl f

[white scarab]

Yeah but like

Why not do it Steamodded-style

[fervent owl]

it works

[random silo]

The real bad one is the fact that wheel of fortune ectoplasm hex and ankh all share the same code that does so many things that… just good luck

[grand geode]

oh thanks i forgot about ecto and hex

[west hill]

Never thought I’d see the day where someone defended calculate joker

[random silo]

He probably just didnt think of that

Its really big but the nested ifs dont go very deep

[white scarab]

Yeah but honestly like 30 jokers down the line I would’ve refssctored if I was him

[random silo]

Ig, but this solution also works

[white scarab]

It does

[swift matrix]

well, look what it's up against, lol

[white scarab]

But sometimes the first solution you think of isn’t the best

[grand geode]

is that a match 3 game

[west hill]

This looks exactly like thunks code

[swift matrix]

Yes, I wrote it in college

it's... not very elegant

putting it extremely mildly

I may as well post the actual zip with the assets, if that'd be allowed

[swift matrix]

'That "graphics" library was given to us for the course. It's basically an api for tkinter from what I understand

[swift matrix]

also, sorry for the ping myst, my bad

[grand geode]

all g

[swift matrix]

Requires Tkinter and Python 2 (I think), and the enhanced gems never worked as intended

[keen vector]

Guys, noob question, but how do i backup my save files for Balatro, in case modding causes problems? I have a C++ profile i dont wanna lose.

[latent nimbus]

relevant image

[rugged dune]

thoughts??

[lean dune]

0/10, doesn't tell you what suits/ranks these are

[grand geode]

suit and rank, or suit or rank?

[rugged dune]

thats true, if only you could view the deck and see

and is or

[grand geode]

because one is piss easy, one is more terrifying

[rugged dune]

it is or*

my wording might be wrong then

yeah it should say or

oops

[rugged dune]

actually i kinda like the idea of having it say which rank and suit

then if you dont know what it does

you might change your cards

then they get debuffed anyway

but in collection it can say most common

[timid nexus]

btw you should prob change its name since not only does it not follow the boss naming convention (all non final boss names have two words and starts with "the") but it also has the potential to cause confusion thanks to 6 suits (this is less pressing and can be ignored)

[swift matrix]

what if like.... it's late enough in the game where all your cards might be the same suit?

[rugged dune]

it is a showdown boss

so every 8 antes

[gilded vortex]

L Corp when naming conventions:

[rugged dune]

yeah i might make the name alliterate

[gilded vortex]

Verdant Veaf

[rugged dune]

oh

oh yeah

wait what

[gilded vortex]

Cerulean Cell

Crimson Ceart

[rugged dune]

why did i think they all had alliteration

wtf

am i stupid

[swift matrix]

that doesn't really change my question, except kinda make it be taunting you

[rugged dune]

they give off that vibe id

[gilded vortex]

I do think they should alliterate

However

[timid nexus]

oh nvm then

[gilded vortex]

I also added a Showdown Boss named Black Gold

so

[timid nexus]

HAH

[rugged dune]

i dont really get your question?

it can only appear at least ante 8

so thats pretty late

[gilded vortex]

what if you get the Plant against Pareidolia?

tl;dr: get screwed

[timid nexus]

Biolet Bessel

[swift matrix]

oh good point actually

[gilded vortex]

https://tenor.com/view/nichijou-break-dancing-gif-26300217

[swift matrix]

I forgot it's only debuffed

nvm

I was thinking instant lose for some reason

[rugged dune]

nah

[swift matrix]

I've been up too long

[rugged dune]

point is its just meant to be super hard lol

2.5x chips too

[gilded vortex]

I don't think it should have extra Chips for no reason

[swift matrix]

there are some impossible ones that some people make. Like "The Cadever" if you have eternal paridolia

[rugged dune]

reason: screw the player

[swift matrix]

literally can't score

[rugged dune]

lmao

[keen vector]

Has anyone lost save data as a result of using mods. Worried about losing data

[west hill]

Cant you just play modded on a different profile?

[gilded vortex]

you can also copy-paste the save data probably

[lean dune]

the only way you can lose save data really is for steam cloud sync to mess up, regardless of if you're playing modded

sure you can back it up, and using a different profile is advisory either way

[keen vector]

I found the save data and i pasted it to an external hd folder, but i heard steam cloud saves can mess it up regardless? New to pc gaming. lost

[keen vector]

So did you mean using an alt steam account ? Windows account? or profile within the game itself?

Bc playing from an alt steam account doesnt seem to change save data used for the game. Still have a 100% profile on the alt

[rugged dune]

is this better?

[gilded vortex]

what's different

[lean dune]

nah i just mean a profile within the game

nothing should mess with a profile that isn't loaded

[rugged dune]

it said this before

[lean dune]

yeah that's much better

[rugged dune]

cool

it kinda kinda trip you up if you dont know exactly what it does too

might change all your cards to another suit but then theyll be debuffed

💀

[keen vector]

ok i see thanks thanks

[keen vector]

Any mod recommendations? 😎

[normal hollow]

Ñ

oops there's a typo because im stupid

there

[rotund whale]

replica + either effarcire or negative deck is broken

[carmine mortar]

Negative cards give hand size?

Does this mean you can just draw your entire deck?

[fervent owl]

thats how it works, yeah

[lean dune]

anyone need some potassium?

[white scarab]

Perkeo delete my beloved

[neat crater]

my banana factory

[nocturne lava]

Just showing off what I think is probably my finalized config screen.

[west hill]

you can have dynamic texture updates btw

[nocturne lava]

How so?

[west hill]

#1254950397701914704 message

you can just alter what is stored in the atlas table

[nocturne lava]

I mean, I saw it, know about the existence of a WIP AltTextures, but, where is the atlas table located?

[west hill]

G.ASSET_ATLAS

[nocturne lava]

Fair. I do still use localization to change text stuff, though, so I might just leave it as a restart thing so it's consistent, unless I figure out how to also alter text during the game.

[west hill]

makes sense

it's on my list of things to do when I come back to alt textures to allow localization switching

what does the smoothing toggle do?

[digital belfry]

i dont think i need this much ectoplasm

[nocturne lava]

The mod forces the 2x sprites to be used because of the art, smoothing is just to toggle that off if you run into any issues.

[keen vector]

So I have steamodded installed correctly and a mod folder created, downloading and copying mods into the folder but no mods showing in game.

[west hill]

can you screenshot your mods folder?

[muted osprey]

Tested my custom challenge again. Finally working as intended (though editions foil/holo/polychrome on consumables seems to not be supported)

[dusk geyser]

hey uh my game keeps crashing because i'm missing nativefs and loadall, how do i fix it

would i need to reinstall balatro

[strong swift]

whats the mods folder like?

[dusk geyser]

nvm, fixed it by doing a full reinstall

[muted osprey]

Also, I had to update my script again, since it was doing r = K instead of r = 'K'

Also, can someone experienced tell me where the error is in this mod?

error message: card.lua:2043: attempt to index upvalue 'self' (a nil value)

EDIT: it was the vouchers causing the problem

EDIT 2: It is the reroll_surplus and reroll_glut vouchers causing the problem

[zenith island]

so i want to at some point, start modding balatro, but, i need to learn how to code first, any suggestions on where/how to learn that are preferably free/cheap?

[nocturne lava]

Personally, I started off by just looking through python's documentation when learning it, not sure how much I'd recommend that approach, though.
I'd say take some code, and try to read through it, and figure out what it does - if words are unclear, look up the documentation for the language you're reading and find out what the word does. Pay attention to how things are structured and organized, and ideally, find and use a code editor with syntax highlighting when programming or reading code.

I'll also throw my example mod in, but, it does expect you to have a basic knowledge of code, would appreciate if you could let me know how much of it makes sense to an absolute beginner, though.

[zenith island]

Do you recommend a particular language or is it just whatever I can get my hands on?

[nocturne lava]

Whatever you're interested in, I'd say. Some languages are definitely harder than others, but, I think if you're learning a language because you're interested in what you can do with it, then you'll probably be more likely to stick through the hard parts of learning it.

One other thing I'd heavily recommend is to experimet with your new knowledge, learn what you can do and figure the ins and out of words when you learn them. Set a simple goal you want to achieve, and try to make a program that does it. Could just be starting off with printing 'Hello World!' in a console, or figuring out how to make a for loop that does it multiple times.

[long cloud]

FUCK

MY JOKERS!!!

[zenith island]

27 fps is wild

[long cloud]

how do you expect my shitty laptop to handle 100 jokers at 16x speed

[true lake]

I know this question has probs been asked a million times but is there a way to get the menu better organized because rn it looks awful,, iirc there was a mod that stacked mods/options but I cant find it

Thanks :))

[muted osprey]

Why does reroll_surplus and reroll_glut cause problems?

Also, why are the cryptids not negative?

[long cloud]

i need to do some deckfixing

blue moon is an amazing jonkler

[swift matrix]

I've still never managed a run with it Funnily enough. Despite doing a lot of lucky card runs

Lucky card flush 5 is my jam ngl

[zenith island]

valid

[long cloud]

blue moon is a good joker at base

a single negative joker thats random is amazing

BUT

it can generate ANY joker

like BP or BS
which... can copy blue moon

[zenith island]

maybe i'm just a quick learner, but this is extremely helpful

[long cloud]

IVE GOT PLANS

[zenith island]

btw, what mod is this?

[long cloud]

mika's

blue moon craetes a random negative joker if three lucky cards trigger in one hand

it also adds a new jonkler that doubles all other joker's base values (a legendary)

[rugged dune]

is $3 alright?

its only common

[long cloud]

man.

11 fps because its a little funky

[white scarab]

Get showman

[steel halo]

does anyone know the name of the mod that allows me to click on a joker in my collection to get it in a run

[long cloud]

release mode toggle i think

[long cloud]

ill get it. eventually, one of these blue moon copies is gonna hit showman

ive got liek 54

54 negative jokers

a round

a hand, technically

[rugged dune]

you can put _RELEASE_MODE = false in any mod to enable debug

or i think theres a mod called debug mode that just does that

[steel halo]

how do i do that

[rugged dune]

do you have any mods installed?

[steel halo]

yeah

cryptid

[rugged dune]

just chuck _RELEASE_MODE = false somewhere in the mod

probably in cryptid.lua

just at the start where its setting the game colours or smth

[steel halo]

doesnt matter i foudn it

[long cloud]

FUCK

THERE'S A SINGLE VAMPIRE SOMEWHERE IN HERE AND I CANT FIND IT

[steel halo]

so i just download this mod into my folder

[long cloud]

this close t clicking the hex button

[rugged dune]

that should work yeah

[long cloud]

NUKE TIME!!

[steel halo]

alr

cool

where do i download it

soryr im new

[rugged dune]

its ite

you can press the green code button

then download zip

thats usually how i do it

[long cloud]

i wanna try downloading the Cryptid mod but im stupid and cant figure out how-

[rugged dune]

although theres other ways w git

[steel halo]

alr cool

[rugged dune]

you know what mod you need

aki

gun fiend joker coming soon probably

once i come up w an idea for it

[long cloud]

im guessing the joker squared gives +16 mult

[rugged dune]

its +9

for every card that has square rank

kinda like fibonnaci

very similar

[long cloud]

time to figure out how to install cryptid and ignore the guide until i start sobbing uncontrollably

[fossil iron]

https://discord.com/channels/1116389027176787968/1234224985032097792

[rugged dune]

i didnt think it had any other steps?

[fossil iron]

@gray vigil

[long cloud]

what had any other steps-

[rugged dune]

cryptid

just drag and drop

oh wait it needs talisman

i think

[rugged dune]

also does this look better than the one above?

[long cloud]

yeah, its darker and a little easier on the eyes than pure flashbang

[rugged dune]

cool

[long cloud]

my dumbass uses thunderstore sadly 😭
although i think i can figure how to install it once i get motivated enough

[rugged dune]

ohh right

ive never used that before

why cant you just download cryptid and drag and drop?

does thunderstore make other mods easier to install

removed the border and touched up the eyes a bit

probably my fav joker art ive done

[long cloud]

it probably would have made it easier if it weren't for cryptid's 3 in one nature (take all my words with a grain of salt i know NOTHING)

im figuring it out hold on

[rugged dune]

you probably know more than me about cryptid lol

[white scarab]

The problem with Thunderstore now is that the required lovely version is still in beta and not on thunderstore

And it’s been like that for a while

[long cloud]

weird

im figuring my shit out rn ill be bck with... probably no results

math do you know much about shaders?

[white scarab]

very little

[rugged dune]

ah nws

[white scarab]

I somehow managed to make one or two shaders for Cryptid

[rugged dune]

i cant change the alpha for some reason

this doesnt look very transparent

[grand geode]

fluorescent... 2!

[rugged dune]

its colourblind

[long cloud]

omw to put colourblind on boots nd bull

[rugged dune]

wait that might be too broken

havent gotten round to actually coding it yet

not looking forward to it lol

[long cloud]

wait

if mult acts as chip

does xmult act as xchip

[rugged dune]

thats the plan

[white scarab]

It feels very situationally broken

[rugged dune]

yeah it really depends which joker its on

i like the idea of it being on playing cards

but stone cards go brrr

[grand geode]

polychrome is situationally broken because i only do +chips

jimbo

[polar schooner]

colourblind primus be like 👀

[sullen badge]

colourblind golden joker most broken joker

[rugged dune]

lol

[polar schooner]

ok I don't even know if that'd work

I have a suspicion it would stay as ^Mult regardless

[rugged dune]

i was thinking just to make it even funnier maybe swap money and probablities

[long cloud]

do you think you are gonna be able to put cryptid on thunderstore or nah-

[rugged dune]

can you guys do me a favour and just pretend you cant see jimbo rq

[white scarab]

once steamodded and lovely release updates on there

i alr have thunderstore stuff set up for Ankh but it's not up to date because of, again, lovely

[long cloud]

make cryptid (the spectral card) able to work on jokers frfr

im laughing because of that hold on

[polar schooner]

[rugged dune]

hes gone

[white scarab]

ankh ex is like this (?)

in jen's almanac

which is upcoming

[long cloud]

ooh nice

[white scarab]

also getting back to work on aura

[long cloud]

i guess im just gonna wait for lovely/steamodded to update and shit, not like i have a shortage of balatro

[rugged dune]

that is awesome

[white scarab]

you could also just... not use thunderstore

although it is more complicated that way

[white scarab]

wanted to try something simpler like this before jumping to flash card

[rugged dune]

whats the plan for flash card?

also please make baseball card (the best joker) very beautiful please thank you

[white scarab]

26 sprites for all the letters, shuffled randomly and it flips and changes whenever update

[rugged dune]

oh damn

[white scarab]

i'm not doing any of the art, just the coding

[rugged dune]

code is art

[white scarab]

i can say the art is awesome for flash card tho

[rugged dune]

that is incredible

[white scarab]

grassy cooked on this one

[rugged dune]

wee joker lol

is that what a flash card is then?

i never actually knew what it was

[white scarab]

you use them for like review

to learn concepts

[rugged dune]

oh like revision

oh duh

im so stupid

tbf ive never made any myself

but at school everyone used them for revision

damn

[white scarab]

i've used online flash cards a lot for that

mainly for simpler things like vocab quizzes

[rugged dune]

yeah idk how i didnt connect the word to the actual concept

is there any documentation about enhancements?

[white scarab]

idk, it would be in the steamodded github wiki if there was

[rugged dune]

ah damn

ill have to look at other mods then

i couldnt find anything there

[white scarab]

ok so update on flash card

i got initial randomization working

now just to get it animating

[rugged dune]

thats the easy bit right?

[white scarab]

probably just as hard tbh

because I'm also planning out internal structuring and stuff

now it's more about getting it to play how I want

[rugged dune]

good luck

[white scarab]

ty

[rugged dune]

im still trying to get jimbo to change colours 😭

im not being dumb right, this should go from 1 to 0 to 1 to 0 etc

theyre all just kinda blue 💀

oh my god it doesnt update time

i have to do this so it recalls it and sets time to the actual time value

i assume

[sterile hornet]

bugs bugs bugs oh boi

at this point i wonder if we need a whole post for bugs

[white scarab]

m

[sterile hornet]

m

[white scarab]

this feels like cryptid's fault

[rugged dune]

nope i got no clue

do i have to pass in time?

wait this isnt mod dev

[white scarab]

ok i now just have to code the flip anim and then I'm done

[sterile hornet]

probably
forgot to remove it after removing talisman since that broke

[white scarab]

ok this wasn't what I planned
