[white scarab]

just comparing a seed from The Soul

and from Steamodded

[severe kiln]

i love cryptid mod i love listening to funky town as the game crashes from having to calculate 1 million joker cards effects

[white scarab]

that's weird, playing on a different seed everything is fine

[white scarab]

update talisman and you can listen to funkytown while the game calculates 1 billion joker card effects without crashing

[half eagle]

if it helps here's my steammodded version

[white scarab]

it might be a slight value difference from vanilla, or something that makes the floating point a bit inconsistent

but either way it is known that the RNG in Steamodded vs Vanilla isn't the exact same, despite our best efforts

[severe kiln]

my laptop is ass

[white scarab]

it'll just take longer then

:jimball:

[severe kiln]

i got the newest version i think idk

i literally bought the game like last week

[white scarab]

it's on 2.0.2 now
the version bundled with the Cryptid release is outdated

https://github.com/MathIsFun0/Talisman/archive/refs/heads/main.zip

[dim crystal]

hey can somebody nelp me i am trying to install mods onto balatro mac yet when i install lovely it wont work

[severe kiln]

ok updated my talisman idk what it does

[white scarab]

it does this

[severe kiln]

ah yes

thats one way to turn my laptop into a projectile explosive

god i cant get this dang song out of my head

[dim crystal]

can someone help

[severe kiln]

cant, mate

sorry

[dim crystal]

ok then where should i ask do i try latet or a different channel

[cursive coral]

what do you mean it won't work

[dim crystal]

i open it up in terminal and it just immidirtly says exiting and says process complete

i tried reinstalling

[cursive coral]

and you got the right release for the CPU you have?

[dim crystal]

i got an m1 chip

[cursive coral]

so your release should be lovely-aarch64-apple-darwin.tar.gz

obviously double check each step in the readme
https://github.com/ethangreen-dev/lovely-injector?tab=readme-ov-file#mac

[dim crystal]

ok i will try again and if it doesnt work then i will comeback and yes i used darwin

[exotic shadow]

there are two macos builds

an aarch64 one for M series and x86_64 for intel

[digital scarab]

Yo guys

Any help here?

[umbral pilot]

it's weird seeing my face randomly in chat

it's like a flashbang

[exotic shadow]

I don't quite recall the logic for the sricker thing

if you have DebugPlus you can just kinda cheat and make a new save on that stake, spawn the joker and then use the menu to win the game

[digital scarab]

True

[primal wing]

Thanks for last night.
Thanks to your help, I finished the deck I asked about last night.
I am working on another deck and I have a question about it!
I want to add a feature to the deck I'm building that will allow me to get tags on a regular basis, like the one in Ace in the Hole.
However, I can't use the code that starts with "local Backtrigger_effectref_aces = Back.trigger_effect" in the challenge deck, probably because Ace in the Hole is a regular deck.
Is there any other code that does something similar? I think I can write something in the custom section.

[river lark]

I love them

[lean dune]

your steamodded is outdated, that was fixed in a newer version

[calm kraken]

something gote found while testing cardsauce was that if a joker is set to a higher resolution than normal the stickers scale with it and become really small

does anyone know if theres a way around this?

[lean dune]

oh that's quirky

[warm pasture]

We gotta pin this in this channel at some point

[lean dune]

true, this is at least half of the answer in at least half of questions asked here

[lean dune]

hey, just saw your issue #329. Unfortunately the function you suggest is completely useless because tables don't have consistent ordering, so you would have no way of knowing what value is referred to by a specific index, and it could change at any time

[warm pasture]

Ah I forgot table's were orderless in lua 😭

[lean dune]

No good way around it, either. I like the idea in general, but it doesn't work

[warm pasture]

also wait would the #1# syntax let you access string keys like #mult#?

That could be solution if it's not too difficult to implement

[lean dune]

I think the parser doesn't understand that

[warm pasture]

Do you know where the parser code is defined?

[lean dune]

localize function

[warm pasture]

Lemme check it out and see if it'd be hard to alter. I'll make a pr if it's not too bad

[warm pasture]

Yeah it's literally a single super simple patch

[warm pasture]

This message is the bane of my existence

[lean dune]

hm not actually that sure anymore if a default is that great, it might just create more confusion about what loc_vars is

[calm kraken]

tried to figure out a way to scale up stickers based on the card resolution and all i got out of it was this weird shit

anyone in here familiar with how draw_shader works with stickers? i just wanna get them to be the same size as normal

[storm forum]

Jokers that have higher resolutions than default also get cropped when they are being copied iirc.

Or, well, "duplicated".

[calm kraken]

duplicated?

i mean i know it gets cropped if i dont set the atlas resolution properly but as you can see it's good there

HOLY SHIT YOU'RE RIGHT WTF

[lean dune]

ah yes, sprite quirks

[calm kraken]

has anyone figured out ways around these quirks like this is

not good

if I had known this would happen I wouldnt have told 2 people from the vinesauce art communities that its ok to make high res art for the project 😭

[warm pasture]

Here's the pr, It's really small so it's not that big of a change imo https://github.com/Steamopollys/Steamodded/pull/330

[west hill]

Wouldn’t this miss out entirely on doing arithmetic or localization with your values?

I’d imagine most mods would need to do something like, and therefore need to know how to use loc_vars anyway

[calm kraken]

hey eremel

[calm kraken]

i know your hd balatro pack isnt actually hd i know that but do you have any advice for my situation here? two issues coming out of using high res atlas for a couple jokers

[warm pasture]

Fair

I mean it is a default function so like it’s not something that can’t be changed

I mean go look in #💻・modding-dev , I think the default function would make things easier for people

Ofc it does also obfuscate some things, which is a problem. However I feel if it’s properly documented it would be beneficial.

But that’s just imo

[grand geode]

consider: 98% of balatro players can't read

(/j)

[lean dune]

i mean it's not a replacement for learning how to use loc_vars, and people will try to get around that if they can. especially if they see it used in other mods

[grand geode]

mostly worried of newer people seeing two different systems used and being confused

[lean dune]

imo this only adds to confusion because it's not as transparent (and a different system)

[warm pasture]

What if we just don’t do the default function, but then keep the string keys change

[lean dune]

if you put 100 Balatro players in a room and 99% of them can't read, how many players that can't read need to leave the room to lower that percentage to 98%?

[faint quest]

is there any mods that auto randomized the face card collections skin?

[warm pasture]

I also don’t know if it’s that confusing considering it’s literally just following with Lua’s existent way of treating arrays as tables with integer keys.

[west hill]

It’s something that’s on my list to investigate after I’m done with some other stuff

Should get round to it this coming week 🤞

[lean dune]

allowing string keys on its own isn't confusing, having the default function is

[warm pasture]

Ok cool I get your view then. I mean maybe providing a util function then?

[calm kraken]

awesome tysm

[lean dune]

though it also doesn't seem all that meaningful on its own for deviating from a standard the game sets, idk

[warm pasture]

The standard set by the game is kinda bad imo? I mean it’s way more clear what each loc string is doing when it has the key name directly in the text. The default way is the complete opposite of transparent specifically requiring you to look at what’s returned to the localization function to determine what each loc string does.

[sturdy canyon]

chat im bored

whats a stupid thing i could do

[grand geode]

it's usable for thunk so he has no reason to change it

[lean dune]

ah yes, isms

[grand geode]

and here i think we want consistency with the vanilla code

moment

[warm pasture]

I mean again it’s arguable consistent with the vanilla code by extension of the way lua treats arrays

[lean dune]

i don't know how i feel about steamodded ending up with a bunch of its own quirks and inconsistencies relative to (the quirks and inconsistencies of) the base game

[west hill]

Taking the minute to understand an index based system will save much time in the long run than typing keys every time

[warm pasture]

They aren’t mutually exclusive systems

[warm pasture]

Kinda already shot that one in the head with the object oriented approach with methods attached imo

[west hill]

Im not saying they are

[lean dune]

me when I ```lua
{
name="Lucky Card",
text={
"{C:green}#normal_probability# in #mult_odds#{} chance",
"for {C:mult}+#mult#{} Mult",
"{C:green}#normal_probability# in #money_odds#{} chance",
"to win {C:money}$#dollars#",
},
},

[warm pasture]

I mean yeah? I think it looks fine imo. I guess I just might have a different opinion but like I know a lot of people aren’t programmers to start when making mods here so I don’t think we should make it any more complex for them to start creating.

I guess it’s mostly up to what your ok with though

[grand geode]

personally that's hella cluttered, and my descriptions are already way longer than they should

[lean dune]

I'm often the one who gets to deal with newly starting mod devs that are confused, so maybe I'm biased in that regard

[warm pasture]

Yeah I definitely get that, but I mean I try to have empathy considering how much I love programming and still get stupid angry at it

Tbh I think this is just the learn python first vs learn C first discussion. On the one hand learning python will let you obtain the abstract concepts faster and get to actually making things faster but learning C will make you understand computers better and how the underlying systems actually work.

So idk then

[sturdy canyon]

how easy will this run be

if i get a baron its so over

[lean dune]

jimbover

[sturdy canyon]

i love reverie

and my mod

and cryptid

[dawn sedge]

Need help pleaseeee
my mod just disappear without reason even though I try to download steamodded or reinstall the game

[rare garnet]

Is Reverie and Codex Arcanum out on steammodded 1.0 yet?

[sturdy canyon]

reverie is, yes

no idea about codex arcanum

[sturdy canyon]

specifically get it from the repository (the green "Code" button) and not the releases

[rare garnet]

Ah mkay thanks

Also uhhh if anybody can help

Or this

Ah now i got this error

[tidal nimbus]

So just Onyx but with stone card?

[stable veldt]

hello! i've been looking for a mod that lets me see how many total chips the hand i'm selecting would make but i'm having trouble finding one. i've seen people in videos do all the math in their head before making a play and i was wondering if there exists a way to just see it. like no added content or anything, just QoL. i'm pretty bad at mental math and keeping track of all the numbers and i was wondering– does anyone know if a mod like this exists?

[hexed pumice]

My save got deleted, I want to edit my save to manually add back all my gold stickers but not sure if its possible or not

[lean dune]

though by the nature of it, mod support is limited

[lean dune]

you're probably best off using debugplus, spawn the jokers into your run and use the win run button

[stable veldt]

omg thank you so much

[tired roost]

Why the hell are you so far back in the chat

[sturdy canyon]

hes a time traveller clearly

[hexed pumice]

Thanks! Maybe I'm being dumb here though, I can't find the win button anywhere

EDIT: i was being dumb i figured it out

These mfs are just doing self promo!!!

[austere locust]

I'm mostly just looking for cool texture mods or QoL stuff

I'm a bit new to balatro qwq

[sturdy canyon]

i mean...

wouldnt you?

[warm pasture]

Yeh

[austere locust]

Who wouldn't?

[primal wing]

Excuse me, could you please ask my advice as well?

[west hill]

my mods are all about cool textures and QoL

[austere locust]

Installed it
where's the play button for new run,,,

[west hill]

you have to click through to the stake select

[austere locust]

OOOOOHHHH

I'm stupid

qwq

[austere locust]

Cool !!!

[austere locust]

btw other than here where else can I find all your mods?

[west hill]

https://discord.com/channels/1116389027176787968/1300851004186820690 this is my other main mod, there should be some links in there too to the texture packs I've ported over, or you can browse my github account

[austere locust]

Okay
Thanks !!!

[primal wing]

Sorry to ask the same question over and over again, but I want to add a feature to the deck I'm building that will allow me to get tags like "Ace in the Hole" periodically!
But I have no idea how to do it, so I need your help!
Anyone! Quickly!

[latent nimbus]

but what if you have two of them

[tidal nimbus]

Gee very funny, the chinese character means "Male genital"

[sturdy canyon]

HOW DID YOU

WHUH

[tidal nimbus]

I'm chinese

[sturdy canyon]

im so sorry

i did not expect anyone to actually check

[storm forum]

https://tenor.com/view/tf2-pyro-tf2-silentmanjoe-pyro-sfm-gif-26607720

[latent nimbus]

gotta change it

[candid sable]

Uhhhh do you know what the Chinese characters mean?

[sturdy canyon]

chat i am so cooked

[latent nimbus]

change the Chinese characters to half zatochi

[candid sable]

I mean the d*cks sometimes are represented by swords or wands in the past

So can't say you are completely wrong

[candid sable]

What does that mean

[sturdy canyon]

idfk

[latent nimbus]

the tf2 weapon

like have it say half zatochi in chinese

[candid sable]

It's half zatoichi

[sturdy canyon]

i was just gonna

[candid sable]

道化者maybe

[sturdy canyon]

too long tho

[candid sable]

Then 道化

I'm not japanese tho

[tidal nimbus]

道化師 means jester in japanese

Or clown

[tall vessel]

When I first saw that joker pic with the effect I recognized and associated that "di*k" word with what the ancient Chinese royal servants did.

[pure slate]

question, is there a difference between a card being rescored and retriggered?

i see the terms being used, but im not sure if its just different wording of the same feature

[sturdy canyon]

i mean

retriggered is what is mainly used

you could use rescoring for something different like i did

[pure slate]

so in general, rescoring = retriggering?

[sturdy canyon]

i mean

yeah basically

[pure slate]

cool

[burnt token]

does anyone know how to fix this

i feal like balatro just doesn't like when i try and add steamodded

[lean dune]

Update lovely

your version is far too old

[burnt token]

ok so how do i do that i tried deleting the current version and putting the new and it still comes up with this

sorry i was stupid put the wrong data folder derectory

[sturdy canyon]

and it does change sprites!!

okay it might be a little op

[sturdy canyon]

awesome

[wanton rapids]

let me play button doesn't work, smh

[west hill]

uwotm8

[sturdy canyon]

when i click the play button on the image it doesnt work????? fix this smh

[west hill]

[grand geode]

i had to leave 3 servers for the last few days for the dedicated mod servers i'm interested in i can't handle this anymore 😭

[west hill]

leave the balatro server, ezpz

[pearl dove]

do y'all like the sfx i made for when the Cosmic Card procs?

[grand geode]

ooh the sfx is great

[pearl dove]

thank you :>

[grand geode]

although why is it using 3oak's values

[pearl dove]

?

i just hacked up a dreamy synth sound and made it play an Emin7 chord because the main theme is in E minor and then it's relative major, Gmaj7

[sterile hornet]

no thats just it upgrading 3oak

although the end looked a lil strange :P

[grand geode]

ooh yeah it didn't change the displayed chips and mult back to the flush

[pearl dove]

didn't even notice LMAO good catch

[hard iris]

im getting this error with no mods

[old wraith]

is there a way to quickly update all mods yet?

[dusty mica]

Usually you have to delete them and re instal them. Likely wont be a way to do it quickly unless there is a launcher made or we get offical steam support

[sterile hornet]

there is one launcher WIP

[dusty mica]

oh your familiar Ah how exciting

[celest leaf]

is it possible to change the location balatro searches for mods in?

[lean dune]

yeah, lovely accepts a command line flag

--mod-dir or --mods-dir I think, can't recall exactly

[celest leaf]

is it possible to set that automatically without going into command line?

[grand geode]

you can set it as a steam launch argument

[celest leaf]

i'm trying to make a portable installation so i can play it anywhere so this doesn't really apply

(if this breaks any rules then i'll stop)

[grand geode]

who lungs reacted me

[celest leaf]

me accidentally lol

[grand geode]

LMAO

[celest leaf]

its an inside joke so its in my quick access bar and i missclicked

sry lol

[grand geode]

nw

but also i can't help you with portable installs so sorry

[celest leaf]

because its not allowed or because you don't know? (not in a condesending way just want to know whether to stop or not)

[grand geode]

latter

and because it's 1am

[celest leaf]

ok, thank you anyways!

[old wraith]

what is the best place to search for mods?

[lean dune]

you can make a shell script that adds the args and use that to launch the game

[grand geode]

#1209506514763522108 or #1260833176935465063

[celest leaf]

ohh good idea, thanks

[grand geode]

latter is bit outdated

[sturdy canyon]

i love ubiquity

also i made a unlock all and lock all button for me mod

[lean dune]

Also note that portable installs without Steamodded (or the relevant patch) usually won't work because the game refuses to start without Steam running

[dusty mica]

Oh what mod is this?

[sturdy canyon]

#1248287850512781452

[dusty mica]

very veyr nice!

[exotic shadow]

(I also have another method to bypass this but I'm not sure if I'm allowed to share it with the class)

[primal wing]

Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.
Can I talk to you for a second? ！！！！！
Me now! I'm working on a mod deck right now, and I want to do it without going over my initial funding, and I want to be able to get the "Ace in the Hole".

local Backtrigger_effectref_aces = Back.trigger_effect
function Back.trigger_effect(self, args)
if self.name == “Ace_in_the_Hole” and args.context == “eval” and G.GAME.round then
G.E_MANAGER:add_event(Event({
func = (function())
add_tag(Tag(“tag_standard”)))
return true
end))
})))
end
return Backtrigger_effectref_aces(self, args)
end

I'm trying to add one for the challenge deck of code that can take tags like that!
Anyway Anyway!!! I have no idea!
Somebody please help me, really! Please!!!

[lean dune]

why do I see code for steamodded 0.9.8

you really shouldn't do that if you want any support

it's been deprecated for half a year at this point

[primal wing]

Maybe it's because all the codes I'm referring to are from 0.9.8!
It can't be helped!

[lean dune]

you're not looking for refs in the right places then

[celest leaf]

is there a quick way to test whether steamodded is active?

[primal wing]

If you are so sure, please rewrite it for the latest! Or better yet, tell us how to do it!
I can't do it myself anyway!

[lean dune]

most mods that are at all used today use a newer version of steamodded

[latent nimbus]

so is this just 1.05^1 mult. then 1.1^2 mult. then 1.2^4 mult. then 1.4^8 mult, etc?

[lean dune]

I don't offer that level of support, please read the docs

[lean dune]

steamodded version below the game version + mods button on the main menu

[lean dune]

or any example out there really, like cryptid for example

[exotic shadow]

we also have an example deck https://github.com/Steamopollys/Steamodded/blob/main/example_mods/Mods/AbsoluteDeck.lua

[lean dune]

they're making a challenge I think

[exotic shadow]

oh i may be stuoud

IDK this feels like a deck

[sturdy canyon]

only one single ubiquity can make a copy at once

[lean dune]

the file they sent has a challenge

[sturdy canyon]

otherwise that'd be op

[lean dune]

but idk at this point

[sturdy canyon]

its more 1.05^1 then 1.1^2 then 1.15^3 then 1.2^4 and so on

[strong kraken]

hey @lean dune

[lean dune]

oh hi

[strong kraken]

are you still up to give me a hand ?

[lean dune]

I'm out rn and about to have dinner

[strong kraken]

no worries

[lean dune]

I can help you later though

[strong kraken]

let me know when you have some time

[lean dune]

👍

[sturdy canyon]

just realised my mod has like 55 jokers (5 of them being cryptid compat)

i thought it'd take longer to make that many

thats like 1/3 of balatro jokers

[latent nimbus]

you should probably state that

[lilac tartan]

help. is there any optimisation mods?

[exotic shadow]

if you have jokerdisplay, turnign it off can increase calcuation time iirc

but no not much

balatro is hard to optimize without breaking mods

[lilac tartan]

i have only cryptid, cartomancer and talisman

[burnt token]

does anyone know why a atlus function on the example joker pack must be nil and how do i fix that?

[exotic shadow]

outdated smods

Make sure you follow these instructions https://github.com/Steamopollys/Steamodded/wiki/01.-Getting-started

[burnt token]

Ok thanks

[celest leaf]

is it possible to install steamodded on the source code?

[exotic shadow]

What do you mean?

[celest leaf]

like is it possible to run the source code with mods

[exotic shadow]

like just mod the game?

[celest leaf]

yeah

[exotic shadow]

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

[celest leaf]

i meant if you extract the exe you get the source code of the game, can you install mods on that

[exotic shadow]

no it is much harder for development, not good for mod compat and we can't share around the source code for distriuting mods

also we use some features of lovely that just don't work source code wise

[celest leaf]

ah ok

thanks

[sturdy canyon]

who up painting they joker

[exotic shadow]

red card mentioned

also that paint roller would not roll

as it's designed now

[sturdy canyon]

oh my god im so dumb 💀

[pure slate]

😭 😭

[feral jolt]

It's a big sponge brush

[exotic shadow]

actually it's a small sponge brush

as it's like 1/5 of a playing card wide

[sturdy canyon]

its also flat

worlds smallest violin sponge brush

[whole hatch]

You should add like a small gap in-between the painting lines like you accidentally missed a spot and you have to go back lol

[sturdy canyon]

crucial bug hath been fixed

doesnt even work lmfao

[whole hatch]

“MICHAEL! DONT LEAVE ME HERE! MICHAEL! MICHAELLLLLLL!!!”

[modest arrow]

I'm having some trouble getting mods running and I could use some help troubleshooting
I'm almost certain I have everything downloaded to the right directories and such, and a new window opens whenever I boot up the game so clearly something is happening, but I can't get any mods to boot up.
I've got an exception for the Balatro folder in my antivirus and real-time protection off. I'm just not sure what else could be wrong.

[lean dune]

just got home

[lean dune]

can I see your mods folder?

[lean dune]

yeah no that's in the wrong place

the Mods folder goes into the appdata save folder

[modest arrow]

oh that makes sense

version.dll is supposed to be in the directory tho right

[lean dune]

yep

fun fact: 98%

[modest arrow]

yeah no this was definitely an issue a "pride and hubris" issue

that did the trick thanks

hopefully i can reform and learn to read

[lean dune]

I don't judge, we put up with these kinds of issues on a daily basis

[exotic shadow]

the putting the version.dll in the appdata folder one happens more often I belive

[lean dune]

my definition of "these kinds of issues" being people putting files in wrong places

[serene kelp]

hii, i finished a mod and I wanted to post it out there, where do ppl usually post mods except for the modding channel here?

[lean dune]

mostly in the #1209506514763522108 forum as well as on github (that's not really "posting" but most mods are hosted on github)

[serene kelp]

yeye ik abt that, i was just wondering if there was some website ppl posted mods on

[lean dune]

none that's widely used

[serene kelp]

ahh alr fair fiar, thanks!! :D

[polar tangle]

Hi, sorry if this is a common/basic question but how do I learn how to mod Balatro as well as other games? I have no experience with modding games but I have a coding background if that helps. Are there any tutorials or guides of how to create my own mods such as simple things like new card designs or even more advanced concepts?

[lean dune]

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

steamodded has a bunch of example mods you can use as reference + a lot more mods in #1209506514763522108

feel free to ask if anything's unclear

for the "as well as other games" part, it really depends on the game so I can't help with that generally speaking

[polar tangle]

thanks

[past dove]

is there a way to access older verisons of balatro?

[polar tangle]

ah thats fair enough. thanks

[lean dune]

yes, steamdb

https://www.reddit.com/r/Steam/comments/611h5e/guide_how_to_download_older_versions_of_a_game_on/

[tranquil vessel]

#1260833176935465063 or awesome-balatro. You should probably post on github and #1209506514763522108 first

[serene kelp]

yeey im just setting somet hings up before i post them, but thank you!!

[strange canopy]

someone can help me, i am installing balatro mods with steamooded and when i try enter the game starts normally without the steamooded, what i have to do?

[west hill]

have you installed lovely?

[strange canopy]

yes

[west hill]

do you get the console window when launching the game?

[strange canopy]

no

[west hill]

then lovely isn't installed correctly

[strange canopy]

i put on the wrong paste thank you and sorry for ask a idiot thing

[west hill]

no worries!

[ocean frigate]

Playing cryptid mod, i crash straight to desktop upon playing my hands, any way to fix this? only using cryptid talisman and saturn mod

[paper verge]

yall at 1 fps how long will this take (I have a total of like 30 replay all played jokers as well as a bunch of other random shit)

oh wait it dropped down to 0 fps

[whole hatch]

how would one technically do pixel art? I can only do like reskins of pre-existing things lol, Idk how to do original stuff cause I suck

[cursive coral]

fake it til you make it

or be happy with programmer art and get someone with talent to redesign it lol

[whole hatch]

boom

ez

[burnt token]

hey whats the command to put your new joker into the joker slots

[celest leaf]

Hey, just digging through some stuff and found this and now i'm wondering, has this ever worked? and is this still being worked on? i tried injecting this into balatro and lovely seems (based on the logs) to run but not load any of the mods. i tried using verisons from before lovely 0.6 in case it's some sort of compatability issue but that didn't help.

[umbral pilot]

balatro for iOS?

[celest leaf]

Yeah, more specifically tweaks for it

[latent crescent]

I don't know why, but twice people accidentally pick my mod thread as channel for asking about "why game not working", and looks like someone made it again but delete message shortly after

[eternal gorge]

how to make deck?

i wan make new balatro deck

[onyx moss]

is there a guide on how to make a texture pack?

[grim sentinel]

what tool do i need on windows to check seeds for the joker order

there is nothing on the steam community workshop for balatro so im not sure where to look for stuff like mods etc

[eternal gorge]

https://mathisfun0.github.io/The-Soul/?unlocks=AAAAAAAAAAAA

[grim sentinel]

1.0.1 n/f are they the same

[white scarab]

yeah

i'll release updates when seed things change

altho I should probably rename that to "1.0.1f+"

[paper verge]

How can i find the source code on mac?

[lucid shell]

now that i've started playing in 16x speed everything lower feels so boring lmao

my switch can't run the game at full speed while it's at 4x

[potent talon]

Does anyone know the mod that added the Midas Deck? Only face cards with them being all gold, plus you started with the joker that makes all played face cards gold if not already. Any ideas what mod adds that?

[echo monolith]

hey guys im trying to download lovely but theres a network error

whats going on

[sterile hornet]

thats your internet probably

[grim sentinel]

is steammodded the best mod loader atm ?

[daring sluice]

yeah, and it will be forever

most likely

there's a universe where steamo gets brought up on human trafficking charges and we have to diverge

[grand geode]

we can legally change the name from steamodded to steammodded and no one would bat an eye

[daring sluice]

i thought it referred to the valve steam for a decent month

steamo has been on hiatus longer than ive been here

[grim sentinel]

anyone seen this

[lucid shell]

It may have been a mod feature with a missing dependency? I'm guessing but I crash from missing dependencies alot

[grim sentinel]

this was without any mods, and also when i tried a modpack so the same with and without

the dll in the balatro folder and then appdata balatro Mods with steam modded contents

[daring sluice]

gonna need a full log for this

Mods/lovely/log

[daring sluice]

you shouldn't have zip files btw

[grim sentinel]

any particular pastebin required

[daring sluice]

they need to be extracted for them to be loaded

[grim sentinel]

no i know these are just the files i downloaded

i get all that

[daring sluice]

ah gotcha

[daring sluice]

just post the file

whichever log file has the error

[daring sluice]

+i imagine verifying game files would fix this

idk if verifying gets rid of lovely but you might have to reinstall it

[grim sentinel]

ok

ill try that first

[grand geode]

steamo has been on hiatus since 0.9.8 technically

and before that

[grim sentinel]

sorted i had no free memory

thanks to firefox

[daring sluice]

@gilded tulip can we get smth like a modding-help forum btw? would be nice to have that + a pinned thread with common issues (which would ideally be owned by an smods maintainer so it could be up to date), diagnosing issues would be much more organized

[daring sluice]

ah makes sense

[grim sentinel]

thanks for your time to help

[daring sluice]

idk why i thought that the error was something other than what it said it was im used to errors being unrelated to the error messages because 98% of balatro developers do not know what an assert is

[daring sluice]

np

i wonder how many assertions there are in the actual balatro source

i can't check rn

[daring sluice]

reasonable amount

[daring sluice]

think you can do an assert.*,.*["'] for the amount with messages as opposed to default assertion failed

that's unnecessarily expensive but it's a search so bleh

[grand geode]

rest are from smods

[grim sentinel]

great fun! last question... do you know the name of a mod where i can replace or create my own cards "custom_queen_of_hearts.png" etc

[daring sluice]

oh i thought you were searching in just the source directory

does this mean there's 5 assertions in balatro, total

[rigid jewel]

Yea

[grand geode]

yea

[daring sluice]

this is truly a

[grim sentinel]

can i edit the png assets directly when opening the archive or does the binary do any crc checks

[gilded tulip]

Will consider and get back to you

[daring sluice]

you can do this yes

it's good to know how to do asset replacement with SMODS if you ever want to publish the stuff you do

if you're just messing around though editing the archive is fine

[whole hatch]

I made your oc handsome 🙏

[daring sluice]

so true

[gilded tulip]

[grim sentinel]

might make a nude ladies deck like i had in spain years ago heh

[whole hatch]

wait egg do you like my sprite

[gilded tulip]

Looks cool!

[whole hatch]

https://tenor.com/view/yes-yes-sir-yayy-kataman-gif-12260883688244422951

[gilded tulip]

Definitely don't do that here, but I'm sure there's a place for it somewhere on NexusMods or something

[tardy sierra]

Looks good to me! 👍

[gilded tulip]

But not here

[grim sentinel]

cool. what software are you using for sprite art

[whole hatch]

Aseprite

[gilded tulip]

Aseprite's based

[whole hatch]

https://tenor.com/view/dab-me-up-faith-john-garcia-gif-17113167587234662225

[whole hatch]

that's crazy work

If my playtime would show up it would probably be like 5 lmao

[pearl dove]

feedback on these decks? (a ranking of most to least useful sounding effects / most to least fun effects / best to worst art would be helpful :>)

[whole hatch]

I feel like discounted deck is very op even without big blind money

[umbral pilot]

I like the art and the effects on the arithmetic deck

very cool

[sterile hornet]

all the arts are nice

[whole hatch]

yeah the art is very nice

[umbral pilot]

yeah I feel like you've really nailed the vanilla artstyle

props

[pearl dove]

note that that means only the boss blinds give reward money on red stake+

[pearl dove]

thank you!!!

that's really kind of you, i'm trying :>

[umbral pilot]

:-)

[whole hatch]

touche

[umbral pilot]

@ me when you have something that we can play, I'm excited to try this out

[pearl dove]

i mean i have progress updates in my server here, i'm hoping to get it out within the month (hopefully) https://discord.gg/E2GrsNtA

[whole hatch]

speaking of art, what's your guys opinoins on this? I made this as my first ever spriting session

It's for a mod im making

[pearl dove]

it looks fantastic!!!

[umbral pilot]

yeah that looks great

[whole hatch]

Thank you!

[whole hatch]

I love the look of arithmetic like metherul said btw lol

[pearl dove]

thanks :>

[whole hatch]

I'm also making this one but idk how I feel about it

#1303484639242883092 and #1212242074926317648 btw

[pearl dove]

fun fact: arithmetic and ancient were the only two i've changed positions of (also populous and arithmetic were the only two i've changed the effects of, because they were made when i didn't know as much about modding and balance and stuff)

[umbral pilot]

wow, I really like the lock spectral

that's a really cool idea

[whole hatch]

I feel like my sprite is kinda butt tho D:

It's mid imo compared to Flipside

[pearl dove]

maybe a more prominent outline?

but it looks good overall!!

[umbral pilot]

an outline might do it. a really prominent feature in cryptid (whose art I really like) is a hard white outline: https://balatromods.miraheze.org/wiki/Cryptid/Spectral_Cards

[whole hatch]

An outline on the edge of the padlock?

[pearl dove]

on the edge and maybe inside the lock

depends on if it looks good inside too

[umbral pilot]

hmm

[pearl dove]

tune down the handle's color a bit, maybe?

[whole hatch]

the handle's outline color?

[sterile hornet]

black then white outline

[pearl dove]

the interior color

[pearl dove]

ooh or that maybe

[sterile hornet]

yea thats quite common in balatro

[whole hatch]

like black, white, then the padlock?

[sterile hornet]

what about the padlock?

what do you mean

[whole hatch]

wdym by black then white?

[sterile hornet]

you mean like from outsite in?

[sterile hornet]

black outline -> white outline

[whole hatch]

Sorry I'm dumb I still don't get what you mean

like it transitions from black to white from left to right?

[sterile hornet]

what?
no 1 pixel black outline then a 1 pixel white outline on top of that

[whole hatch]

oh yeah that's what I was saying before mb lol

[sturdy canyon]

i love em ngl

[rare garnet]

Need help with this error

Happens when i enter this custom Boss Blind

[opaque crest]

I like how the length of my runs are now determined by how long it takes to crash

[sturdy canyon]

cryptid antimatter deck

[sturdy canyon]

ace aequilibrium spotted ❤️

[whole hatch]

from this to this is lowkey crazy

[azure dagger]

do you think RTGame knows about Talisman

[wanton rapids]

i doubt that would be reason enough to return to the game

[severe cove]

he probably has balatro mods as an idea he wants to do

he did do modded wildfrost with pokemon if i remember

stuff like Pokermon isnt out of the question

[open flint]

Hey all, am I allowed to ask for modding technical support here

fuck it

Fusion jokers crashes my Balatro whenever I try to fuse jokers

I'm on an M1 mac and the error reports something about indexing the rarity value

[lean dune]

can you show the full error message please?

[open flint]

gimme a sec

[lean dune]

ah

an update to steamodded broke the mod

you need to use elbe's fork https://github.com/lshtech/Fusion-Jokers

[open flint]

Lemme see if that works

It stopped crashing thank you boss 🙏

[grand geode]

hi i finally updated lobotomycorp :)

Heya, is there a way to see the results of the soul card in every ante using Immolate's perkeo_analyzer filter? Or using any other tool?

[grand geode]

Fuck

schedule is busy, maybe tomorrow

[sturdy canyon]

oh em gee

apparently if i play a flush my game crashes lmfao

[grim sentinel]

mods are amazing, i installed mikasmod and arcanum and its totally refreshed the game for me.

I often wonder about devs and the modding community, like if you put out a game and then all the good ideas get turned into mods as a dev really you should be able to integrate the best into the next game, dont you think

[round ore]

(cryptid) why when i play a game with antimatter deck, and when i pick blind, the game just crashes

or should i ask help in #1209506514763522108 ?

[polar schooner]

has anyone made a mod with a config that allows you to just ban specific things you don't like from appearing

i want to explode obscure overshoot forever

[fallow bramble]

https://discord.com/channels/1116389027176787968/1306355083268722728

[polar schooner]

excellent

i'm fine with like. literally everything else. but overshoot specifically just seems to screw any build over

[fallow bramble]

What's overshoot?

[polar schooner]

+8% blind size / +5% overscored

[grim sentinel]

vanilla?

[polar schooner]

no

thank god

[grim sentinel]

what mod

[grand geode]

[tardy sierra]

Where's Kailen, might I ask?

[white scarab]

He’s still around

He rebrands his profile every once in a while anyway so he has a different username

I blocked him because of everything that happened so I can still see when he sends messages even with the rebrands

[versed bough]

it isnt because of anything mischevious i just keep changing my profile to things i happen to like for that week

[versed bough]

do you need anything or were you just asking?

#1248865517112918016 message

unrelated but check this persons themes out btw they look sick for anyone here

[tardy sierra]

I was just wanting to recheck if your name was spelled Kailen and Kaiden, I tend to get those mixed up.

[versed bough]

... really?

okay i guess that makes sense

[tardy sierra]

I tend to forgor names easily, sorry. 💀
I couldn't find you, cuz you were named Shockwave just a few days ago.

[versed bough]

but did you want to find my name for a reason?

like you want to ask me something?

[tardy sierra]

Yee, I wanted to spell it properly for something, and just wanted to make sure.

[versed bough]

if it isnt too personal, what do you mean by something

[tardy sierra]

Just talking about your Code Joker PFP, is all, and if there was a source for it...or is it just the regular Code Joker?

[versed bough]

oh yeah i can 100% grab that

lemme just

[versed bough]

i made it myself

[versed bough]

heres my recreation ofi t

[tidal nimbus]

What if... Balatro X Touhou?

[normal plank]

guys what does this mean

[lean dune]

this means you should update lovely

[normal plank]

ty

[potent talon]

Does anyone know the mod that added the Midas Deck? Only face cards with them being all gold, plus you started with the joker that makes all played face cards gold if not already. Any ideas what mod adds that?

[lean dune]

you could have found the answer just using Discord's search in the same amount of time it took you to write that message

#1215775159638818826

[potent talon]

I had tried that and came up blank which is why I came here

Thank you anyways

[neat rain]

has this happened to anybody before

[timid arch]

yorick imprisoned for his crimes

[exotic shadow]

Yeah I've had stuff lock after being unlocked before

[potent talon]

Is Mika's deprecated? Neither Github link has any releases

Found a work around I think

[lean dune]

it's outdated, you probably should use elbe's fork

https://github.com/lshtech/MikasBalatro

[potent talon]

That's what I ended up finding, dug through the dimserene list

[lean dune]

👀

[rigid jewel]

Nice

[dim basin]

i kinda want to create a math based mod but i don't know how to create mods

i will see

[exotic shadow]

no way someone though to make an option in the config for a boolean we disabled and then made a mode to reneable

[raven wagon]

every joker is some variation of fibonacci

[onyx moss]

does anyone know how to add textures to the game?

[lean dune]

I've seen one too many complaints about some form of achievements enabler not working, so i figured it'll be faster to just replace it than to try to troubleshoot anything

[exotic shadow]

what are the 3 options?

theres bypass restrictions and I assume theres no acheimvnets

[lean dune]

Disable, Enable, Bypass restrictions

[exotic shadow]

so is bypass like ignore seed check?

[lean dune]

that and unlock all

that's all the restrictions that exist

[onyx moss]

should i just extract the exe, change the textures I want to change, and compress it back into an exe?

[exotic shadow]

challenges

[lean dune]

i should probably handle challenges

fair enough

[sterile hornet]

idk, you could probably do something like download ReShuffled, replace textures with vanilla textures and then modify from there

[exotic shadow]

tbh it would maybe make sense to have the option to bypass unlock all but not seeded or challenges

[onyx moss]

thanks

[lean dune]

i don't care enough to do that

[exotic shadow]

true

[pure slate]

whats the biggest score you can have with talisman? i know its mathomega or something, but whats the actual value

[white scarab]

10{~10,000}10
(can go higher depending on your hardware)

[keen sorrel]

quick question, i was watching a balatro video and i was wondering if anyone knew what mod adds these cards?

[exotic shadow]

Cryptid

[pure slate]

cryptid

[keen sorrel]

oh alr then ^^

ty

[pure slate]

np

:]

[pure slate]

its hardware dependent? neat

but im confused if {} mean something different in a maths/lua sense

[white scarab]

Practically no one will ever get something above 10{1,000,000}10 going stably

[white scarab]

hyperoperations

[grim sentinel]

what can i use to turn images into basic pixel art images. im talking gimp/imgmagick etc offline not webapps

[pure slate]

ty ty

[white scarab]

^ = {1}
^^ = {2}
^^^ = {3}
etc.

[pure slate]

ooooh

[white scarab]

It can probably represent most things you can think of below Graham’s #

[lean dune]

g_64 - 1:

[pure slate]

interesting, i should really look into obscure maths more

[junior rock]

numberphile is your friend

While you're at it at more speed options

As a default

anyone know how this error was caused i got steamodded to work but when i installed lovely it would seem like its working then get this error

[exotic shadow]

verify file integrity in steam

[lean dune]

whatever install guide you used is extremely outdated

[nocturne night]

oh

[lean dune]

and presumably so is the version of steamodded you tried to install(?) because the current crash handler tells you what to do if this happens

[exotic shadow]

idk I find often times it doesn't work right

I should setup an envirment to mess around with tat

[nocturne night]

this happened when i tried installing lovely

[lean dune]

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

[nocturne night]

i think im going to just delete what i did and try again

[lean dune]

follow install instructions from here after verifying game files on steam

[nocturne night]

lovely should show up in the mods list right?

[lean dune]

... no

lovely is not a steamodded mod

steamodded is a lovely mod

you got something backwards

[tame saddle]

whenever i import i mod into the mods folder i get this grey error screen when starting the game is this a common issue?

[lean dune]

the description 'this grey error screen' gives no real information, as almost all crash screens with steamodded look like this

maybe you can share the crash screen?

[exotic shadow]

(they also look like this without steamodded)

[prime tapir]

yooooo
idk if i'm going insane or if i removed or added a mod or smth but now i lag whenever I play a hand, and the hand orders itself by rank

anyone have any idea what this is or is this better explained by the DSM-5

i did a bunch of mod pruning n stuff so something there probably broke so

[lean dune]

(they do but they look mostly empty so they still look different)

[ancient oak]

is there a tutorial for cryptid mod instal?

[formal chasm]

dumb question but can we install mods on a steam deck or not ?

i'm just bit curious about it

[warm pasture]

Yes

A steam deck just runs on a version of linux

[formal chasm]

same installation ?

[prime tapir]

yeah same as linux

[formal chasm]

oh so for the steamdeck we need to install the linux files then

[prime tapir]

yep

basically just arch linux

[formal chasm]

okayy

[lean dune]

just install lovely as outlined here including step 4 and the rest of the process is exactly the same for all systems

you still get the windows files as balatro runs in wine on linux

[prime tapir]

that can't be right

it's lua

[formal chasm]

hmm weird

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3178949415

i found this thing and it's mention windows

[warm pasture]

That's crazy

[formal chasm]

soo bit lost

i'm bit lost now

[warm pasture]

> Writes game in highly portable scripting language
> Uses wine on linux
> Be

[lean dune]

i was gonna say that should be really outdated but it's actually been updated, nice

[formal chasm]

wait so what version should i put

it depends on each steamdeck ?

[lean dune]

latest everything

lovely 0.6.0 and download steamodded off the main branch

[warm pasture]

Amazing

[formal chasm]

i mean windows or Linux ?

[lean dune]

lovely has no separate linux download

[warm pasture]

Rust moment

[exotic shadow]

the steam deck/linux runs the windows version of balatro in a compatibility layer

[warm pasture]

That's honestly wild

I wonder why

[formal chasm]

so install lovely Windows verion, then steammoded windows version too ?

i may be dumb but i prefer ask

[exotic shadow]

it works fine and then thunk doesn't need to do extra work for linux

especially with likely how little benifiy it would gain

[warm pasture]

Well I mean lua is already a portable language lol

Wonder if he ran into probs or something during testing

[exotic shadow]

sure but he still needs to make a special linux build, test it, make changes to account for differences, such as save path

why do that when it runs a build you already support with no issues

[warm pasture]

Because wine is finicky

But if it works it works

[exotic shadow]

I haven't had any weird issues with balatro under wine

[warm pasture]

I mean in general

[exotic shadow]

or anything to call it finiky

It's generally not terible

[warm pasture]

Ofc not, it's generally a super cool project

Especially with proton and the such

[tardy sierra]

...Is that Othermod, or a different mod?

[warm pasture]

My mod

Unreleased

[half forge]

anyone able to help me?
i got back into the game and i'm trying to get some new mods to work, but because my stuff was very outdated i downloaded new versions of lovely and steamodded.
i then launch the game, but it's just launching vanilla

[tardy sierra]

Ah, okay.

[lean dune]

it's likely that your antivirus got a hold of lovely

[half forge]

let me look into that then

[lean dune]

refer to step 1 from https://github.com/Steamopollys/Steamodded/wiki#step-1-anti-virus-setup and reinstall lovely

[pearl dove]

does this look good / fun to use?

[tranquil vessel]

phrasing feels a bit hard to understand

[brisk seal]

not really

[lean dune]

doesn't seem confusing to me tbh

[half forge]

it's worked, or so i thought.
it's crashing on launch

[formal chasm]

What is this mods

[lean dune]

mind sharing the crash?

[formal chasm]

I need more MORE MORREE Mods

[lean dune]

there's a file from an old steamodded installation that stuck around

this is why you should always delete the whole folder first when updating

[half forge]

i wasn't aware, let me do that

[lean dune]

you just need to remove lovely.toml from steamodded

but it's best to delete it in full just to make sure nothing else is interfering

[warm pasture]

Is this too weak?

[lean dune]

isn't this exactly monkey dagger from cryptid?

[warm pasture]

Well the idea of left dagger isn't like unique. Also idk I don't know the cryptid jokers

[lean dune]

yep just checked, it's the exact same effect with the same numbers

[warm pasture]

Lol

[half forge]

i just reset the steamodded folder, it now has a different crash

[lean dune]

yeah well

deck creator is one of those really ancient mods

it doesn't work at all with current steamodded

[half forge]

i should just delete that?

i'm fine with getting rid of it

[lean dune]

yep

[pearl dove]

working on a content mod that prioritizes things i often feel are afterthoughts in modding (enhancements, decks, etc)

[half forge]

it still crashed...

[pearl dove]

not out yet but i'm working on it!!!

[lean dune]

talisman is specific about what its folder should be named

for whatever reason that still hasn't been changed

so make sure you name it exactly Talisman

[half forge]

i have no idea what this talisman is refering to

[lean dune]

there should be a talisman folder in your mods folder

which I assume is called Talisman-main

[lean dune]

oh, different issue, my bad

you need the subfolders of that cryptid folder directly in the mods folder

except steamodded, you already have that

[half forge]

this is what it contains, i assume i just ignore steamodded?

[lean dune]

mhm, at least i think this should still work with latest steamodded

[half forge]

ayy it launched!

thanks for the help @lean dune

[lean dune]

np

[half forge]

one more question. i remember there being an unlock all option. where is that again?

[lean dune]

in the profile menu

[half forge]

found it, thanks

[ornate egret]

you think i got em?

[faint crescent]

Why does fusion jokers crash my game when I fuse the jokers

[opaque crest]

I keep wanting to do really long runs but I end up with my game crashing before I can get there

[latent nimbus]

so better abandoned deck? yes please

[umbral pilot]

love2d can be weird to distribute on Linux, so maybe that + there's really no reason to go for native if it works under proton.

rust moment 😎

[warm pasture]

Rust ❤️

[umbral pilot]

it's alright I guess

[wicked abyss]

Anyone know if it’s possible to get mods on Mac?

[tame saddle]

just gives me that everytime when i remove bunco mod from the folder it says same error for a different mod

only one that works is morespeed option mod

[spare geyser]

you guys think i've got enough eris's?

[restive marsh]

Any one piece texture packs out there?

[stiff crater]

is there any mod who can combine all enchantment in one card? like gold + steel + lucky, i think that's gonna be crazy

[rose cobalt]

anyone play Cryptid enough to tell me something i dont know

why was there one run where i kept finding this insane code card called Selector which gives you whatever you type and then suddenly i cant find it on any other run. Even with the code deck and the green seal deck

i cant even find it in the collection

[timid arch]

It's called Pointer and it's a rare spectral card, similar to soul

[rose cobalt]

ahhh

why was i getting it outside the spectral pack that run

i think maybe it was the equilibrium deck then

thank you for that information

it's similar to the soul

in terms of spawning

iirc it rarely appears in code packs and spectral packs

[wicked abyss]

Anyone know if u can get mods on Mac?

[uneven cape]

not sure if it the right channel to ask but? can anyone make a mod about vouchers, especially something like 1 shop can have multiple voucher

• but one of them will be overpriced (like x4 the base, the higher the ante, the higher the cost)
• instantly restock but the more you buy the more it will be cost (reset per ante or sth)
  since I played with multiple mods which add a lot of voucher so it kinda hard to find some

Hey random question: What font is the word "Joker" on a card?

or is there a custom one?

[grand geode]

custom

[sterile hornet]

custom but someone made a font based on it

[hardy brook]

got a link?

Hey y'all, I'm trying to install Extra Credit. I got the Steammodded installation done and I have the folder for Extra Credit, not sure how to get it working in game though

[uneven cape]

how can I increase debug logs? can't figuring out which mod cause this because of the trim

[placid folio]

is there a way to edit your save file to make the completed stakes for each deck higher? I've got Blue Deck up to Gold Stake, but I don't really want to have to grind through White-Green Stake for each and every one of the 14 decks when there isn't much challenge, and would much prefer to start out at Black or Blue Stake instead

[fiery pilot]

Heeyyyyy wondering if there’s a mod to turn off card counting in the game. I’m using the cryptid mod and I don’t think the game can handle this level of stress

[paper verge]

talisman can turn off card scoring animations

[fiery pilot]

Yeah i don’t think that was the issue since I figured that out and the game still crashed

[paper verge]

Then that’s just cryptid for you

Or really just modded balatro

[tame saddle]

what is causing this error whenever i open the game with mods it says this

[small wyvern]

I too would like to know

[paper verge]

Is there a list of mods anywhere?

[lean dune]

you're using an old deprecated version of steamodded, that's why

[tall quiver]

Dimserene's Modpacks are a good list

https://discord.com/channels/1116389027176787968/1255696773599592458

[red lark]

yeah same here

[red lark]

wheres the new one

[lean dune]

https://github.com/Steamopollys/Steamodded/wiki#how-to-install-steamodded

[red lark]

i got it to work

sorry the update failed earlier os i was confused why that one wasnt working

since there wasnt another one

[lean dune]

I don't even know where everyone is digging up all these ancient install guides when everything is up to date and explained right on the main github page

like you have to go out of your way to ignore the fact that 0.9.8 is deprecated and like 8 months old

[lean dune]

👍

[hasty kestrel]

Hey guys new to modding balatro and started experimenting with the mods already in steamodded. I tried playing around with the all 4s and absolute decks but I have an issue. Does anyone know what the value of face cards is when setting the rank? Numbers work fine but if I put K for kings the game crashes

[tall quiver]

type the word

[tired roost]

"Pumice Rock"
1/3 for X2, 1/10 for +10$, on lucky card score

part of the enhancment rocks for NLM mod

[whole hatch]

That looks really nice!

[tired roost]

fixed it up

[whole hatch]

I wish I could make something like that without being restricted to a palette

[whole hatch]

How long you been spriting for?

[tired roost]

well, in total, i been a pixelartist for like... 2-3 years

and i made this not so long ago

i usualy use Aseprite, and sometimes PixiEditor when i need a perspective warp

[whole hatch]

Damn that looks beautiful 😭🙏

I use aseprite too although I’ve only been spriting for like 2 days 💀

I feel like I’m alright but not on your level for sure ❌

[tired roost]

pro tip:
Edit > FX > Convolution Matrix

some useful stuff in there

Edit>FX
and Edit>Adjust
are the most used thing right after the draw tool

[whole hatch]

Hmm alright, thank you 🙏 I’ll be sure to look at it

How are these though? These are my first ever sprites

I want a professional opinion on how good they actually are, now just how they look

[brisk venture]

Theres already a lock in cryptid iirc but they look jice

[tired roost]

pretty good for 2 fucking days

wow

[whole hatch]

Yeah this is for another mod

[tired roost]

shadow and glisten on the lock is on point, the card has good perspective warp, and the backgrounds are dope

not gonna say anything on the colors, cause its the spectral palette (that i realy like, and it feels like it makes art easyer to make)

[whole hatch]

My biggest issue that I find with Lock is the handle. I feel like it just looks off

[tired roost]

(for some reason this palette makes drawing realy fun)

[pearl dove]

i filled page 2 of galdur with my custom decks ^^

[grand geode]

probably because the shading on metal is off?

idk

[tired roost]

too small, picture a lock, how would you hold it in your hand, the closing ring is almost to the very edges of the thing

[ornate moss]

does anybody know where i can find the extra credit mod

[tired roost]

the way to make real things look real, is to try to imagine them in front of you

[pearl dove]

i'm proud of this, i used to be very afraid of coding anything beyond a very basic python project and i'm happy i managed to do this. ive learned that lua is my favorite language and i also really wanna learn base Love2D

[whole hatch]

Yeah, you’re right lol, I kinda screwed up by not using a reference image for more than 3 seconds

[tired roost]

i rearly look at the reference for any significant amount of time

i get the general idea, and then i do, experimant, try try try, and look for what looks best

[pearl dove]

i try to kinda build a 3d model in my mind to rotate around

as if i'm imagining moving the camera in a blender project that has the thing in it

[whole hatch]

Yeah that’s what I mainly tried to do with Flipside lol, I made the card without perspective warp originally and I had to redraw the entire thing to get it right lol

[pearl dove]

perspective warp my beloved

[tired roost]

i prefer the "as held in hand", caues my artistic ADHD ass gotta fiddle with shit all the time, so i get the idea of propper proportions form how the parts are in relation to eachother if to fiddle with it

[whole hatch]

This is like the storyline of it lol

[pearl dove]

see i'm the same way but i have the ADHD that makes me space out a lot instead of fiddle with things, i think inattentive type vs hyperactive type, so it helps me that way

[whole hatch]

(Ignore the green seal on that one version)

[tired roost]

tere is a free steam program "PixiEditor", its not a great tool, but one thing that makes it worh downloading is that it has vertex warp, hold on imma show you

[whole hatch]

🤨

[odd marsh]

I borked it oops

[whole hatch]

Oh damn wow

that looks clean asl

[tired roost]

carpet jimbo

[whole hatch]

lmfao

Yeah that perspective warp looks crazy good

[tired roost]

yeah, i just hold alt with the cursor tool, as im grabbing the corners, and i can move the corners freely

[whole hatch]

It’s called PixiEditor, right?

[tired roost]

but Aseperite is far supperior in all other casees

[tired roost]

yes

[whole hatch]

Alright bet, I’ll definitely check it out later

also I feel like my problem is that I don’t know what colors to use

obviously the spectral template was alright cause it chose the colors for me

but I feel like I’ll just fail once I attempt to make a joker with multiple colors

[tired roost]

this is how i made the landscape for Monolith and dumpster perspective for Big Shot

[tired roost]

you will be suprised, but the Minecraft Handbook for Buildrs (yellow one of the new eddition) told me all the color stuff i need

[whole hatch]

LMAO fr?

[tired roost]

most importantly, keep this a circle

[whole hatch]

Am i dumb but what does perspective warp have to do with that

[whole hatch]

Is there an option to change it to a circle in aesprite?

[tired roost]

the floor for monolyth and the dumpster edges for spamton

obv i did a bit of touchups to it

[tired roost]

also, the sea was drawn flat, and then distorded

[whole hatch]

Wow nice, you seem extremely skilled at this lol

2-3 years, right?

Do you do the spritework for NLM?

[tired roost]

its that by defult, you might have accidentaly messed it up, so idk

[tired roost]

and 99% of the ideas

[whole hatch]

Ayyy that’s me for my mod 🔥

there’s literally a spreadsheet for just my ideas and a few from other people 💀

[whole hatch]

Both Lock and Flipside were my ideas, actually
#1212242074926317648 and #1303484639242883092

[daring sluice]

lock is not an original concept

oh wait

that's from 10 months ago

😭

[whole hatch]

💀

I cooked back in February 🔥🔥

[tired roost]

I have a funny Joker texturepack idea

take the names
100x google translate
art based on the new name

example:

[whole hatch]

Have this be the sprite

[tired roost]

this makes me actualy want to do this joke mod

[whole hatch]

What, the image?

[tired roost]

ye

[whole hatch]

Lmfao

Supreme motivation

[limpid lake]

i guess i should figure out how localization files work at some point
-# obviously 9 minutes into my work shift is the optimal time to start looking into this

[pallid flame]

been a while since i've played
...where tf do my mods go again

[runic latch]

appdata/local/balatro/mods I think

[wicked abyss]

How do u even install mods 😭

[lean dune]

you seen this part of the readme?

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

[daring sluice]

[deft pier]

Having a lot of trouble getting steammodded to work.
I made the 'Mods' folder inside %Appdata% > Balatro and extracted the steammodded files there.
When I open the game it doesn't show that I have steammodded and I can't get any mods to work.
When installing steammodded from github I am not getting any injector, is this an error (possibly on my side?)

Would very much appreciate some help!

[frosty sequoia]

Currently getting this. Only attempting to use 1 mod. Balatro preview. At a loss, tried a bunch of different tutorials,

[frosty sequoia]

Just ignore this, Modding is a mess, nothing seems to be working anywhere, given up

[umbral pilot]

what's in the BalatroPreview directory?

[umbral pilot]

also I've never seen that mod before. what is it?

well there's no file called ``Core.lua`in there, so it makes sense that lovely would be upset

[frosty sequoia]

Like I feel this everything is disoraganized, I have no idea what mods need what, what mods work with which things, nothing 😦

Is there a published list of mods that I can use with lovely

[umbral pilot]

share a link to the mod 🫠
