[exotic shadow]

No lovely is used to load steamodded and most mods use steamodded (some are lovley only and some use both)

[median ravine]

ahh I see

[exotic shadow]

Lovely only meaning they only need lovely, not that don't work with steamodded

[river lark]

https://discord.com/channels/1116389027176787968/1241172556849876993

[chilly sinew]

[tranquil vessel]

Codex Arcanum issue

[river lark]

whats that?

[tranquil vessel]

get this version https://github.com/lshtech/Codex-Arcanum instead

[chilly sinew]

thanks

its a mod

[river lark]

oh ok

[exotic shadow]

https://github.com/WilsontheWolf/DebugPlus/blob/master/docs/dev.md#using-debugplus-to-help-develop-over-mods

[river lark]

ooh thanks, i'll look into that

[chilly sinew]

works fine now thanks guys

[tranquil vessel]

CodexArcanum is a balatro mod (see the link) that was made a long long time ago.
It had to implement some stuff itself that later got put into steamodded, so it can break other mods that rely on the steamodded stuff after codex arcanum gets loaded and overwrites it

[tacit ledge]

its been 3 hours

[river lark]

Ooh okey

[next bloom]

where can i find modpacks?

[west hill]

Galdur updated to be compatible with newest smods

[chilly sinew]

i got this problem guys

[indigo harbor]

anybody got some cryptid addons?

[lean dune]

whatever AxUtil is, it's really outdated

[chilly sinew]

how do i delete it

[lean dune]

just remove it from your mods folder

[quasi pilot]

Can anyone tell me what mod most people agree is the best?

Or at least a good mod for a newer player to expand the game

[west hill]

its in black seal too iirc

[chilly sinew]

bet i deleted it

i got this now

[lean dune]

do you have nested folders?

nvm i think that mod is bugged

[chilly sinew]

which one

[lean dune]

nethers jokers

[chilly sinew]

alright bet i deleted it now its working

thanks

any mods i should install?

[tired roost]

JJJJJJJOOOOKER!! IDEA!!!

"Feedback Loop"
Re-triggers the joker on it's left, as many times as the amount of jokers to it's right
Debuffs all jokers to it's right

[dapper mesa]

currently trying to launch the game with mods and got this error

[lean dune]

the release version of codex isn't compatible with current steamodded

[dapper mesa]

ah

[lean dune]

https://github.com/lshtech/Codex-Arcanum

you can use elbe's port

[dapper mesa]

thank you

[orchid echo]

Is the lovely github reputable?

[white scarab]

Yes

[orchid echo]

Its so spooky

[white scarab]

Ask @umbral pilot if you don’t trust me

[lean dune]

what about it? it gets a bunch of antivirus flags due to the way it functions, but it's fully open source

[orchid echo]

Just that it has to function that way

[lean dune]

anything shady would just be in plain sight and we wouldn't have been using it as a modding community for over half a year at this point

[orchid echo]

I am babby in modding balatro

[lean dune]

it's the best we got, previously we had to literally ship a program that would modify the game executable

[orchid echo]

Today is my first time modding it

[pale patrol]

I probably have enough consumable types without alchemical cards

[lean dune]

welcome in then

[pale patrol]

I reccomend jen's almanac if you like funny things.

I like how I don't know how to access like 90% of the mod. I feel like there's some arcane way to get some of these jokers in a run I stg

[quasi pilot]

How do I disable mods in the Lua code?

Like turn them off so the game can load properly

[pale patrol]

you can just delete the offending mod from the folder

[umbral pilot]

Yeah, unfortunately there's no other real way to go about it. You gotta do some funky stuff with the game to make mods work.

[quasi pilot]

I want to have the mods installed but turned off on Steamodded

But the game crashed

[pale patrol]

well that;s outside my expertise

why do you want it installed but disabled?

[quasi pilot]

It’s not compatible with Ortalab, I want to turn it off so I can have Ortalab on

But if they don’t work then I’ll delete them

It’s Bunco and Reverie

[pale patrol]

so why not just back it up and delete it from the folder

[quasi pilot]

Yeah I’ll do that sorry

[pale patrol]

no worries, I get it. Sadly I don't think there's much to do from a crash from start up

my current list, so I get the annoyance of the trial and error lol

[west hill]

whya ren't these compatible?

[quasi pilot]

I dunno

I’m trying to figure out the issue now

It says “Reverie mod folder is nested” and apparently that’s the issue

[west hill]

need to download reverie from source iirc

[quasi pilot]

Ah ok

Thanks

[pale patrol]

well there you go, glad someone had an answer for you

[quasi pilot]

Thank you guys so much

[white scarab]

I wonder if a modloader based on the ACE exploit would be cool. You could probably copy all the code and make your own “lovely patches” before loading it

And then just save the modloader in settings.jkr or something

[quasi pilot]

Reverie doesn’t work for me at all

I’ll delete it for now

[umbral pilot]

I'm not 100% sure how that would work but my initial assumption is "eh", but that's because lovely patches require native code access, which would be harder from ACE

An ACE modloader would work totally fine though, it'll just be contextually different

[white scarab]

ACE runs pretty early (shortly after when Game:start_up is called iirc), so you could probably have it reload all the files with pseudo-lovely patches before starting up proper

[umbral pilot]

Yeah, that sounds like it would work

hmm

I guess I'm biased

[umbral pilot]

I wonder if dynamically reloading the game's source at runtime would cause any issues with the love2d native backend

[white scarab]

maybe since you’d have to reset all the love functions

I could see this being how Steamodded was installed if we found out about ACE much earlier

(back when Steamodded 0.1 was a thing)

[umbral pilot]

yeah, I wouldn't have been surprised if that was the path you guys took

it feels pretty obvious in hindsight

[warm pasture]

Chat what if I...

[jovial notch]

oooga booga

i am back from dead

[white scarab]

It might be a fun passion project to port lovely as an ACE payload one day

[jovial notch]

ooh
that seems cool :D

[white scarab]

although if anything I’ll just use the ACE for a fun one-off mod

[chilly sinew]

guys i was playing and when i was about to open a new pack i got this error

[placid folio]

are there any mods which rebalance jokers/vouchers rather than adding new ones?

[chilly sinew]

i think so

here

joker evolution maybe

[pale patrol]

joker evolution or codex arcanum are thre two that stick out to me

[chilly sinew]

what should i do with them?

[pale patrol]

wait

doesnt the log say it was bunco

or at least bunco logged the last error on the stack

[chilly sinew]

yeah i reinstalled it and it didnt help

[pale patrol]

does it happen consistently when you open packs?

[chilly sinew]

no i think just when i open a bunco pack

[pale patrol]

hm

I mean I would say maybe disable bunco in mod options for now and see how the game runfs

[quasi pilot]

Hold on, I may be able to fix Reverie

[chilly sinew]

this one

[quasi pilot]

Nope… but yeah

No Reverie today I guess

[chilly sinew]

whenever i open a pack for this the game stops

[pale patrol]

really happy familiar and jens almanac play nice together

[next bloom]

which mod adds the thing where u switch between joker sets

[pale patrol]

reading the bunco thread says it might be an old version issue and theres link to a new version in the readme, not sure its your issue but its worth checking if nothing else

[chilly sinew]

alright bet

thx

(Main page is removed for the time being because it got very outdated. For now, to download the mod, download the source code. Thanks!)

this is what it says in the readme

[pale patrol]

well not sure then

[chilly sinew]

thanks anyway:)

[whole hatch]

I don't think the game likes me

[lean dune]

on average one of them will give you ACE

[limpid panther]

I believe that's one of the decks from Jimbo's mod

[lean dune]

(except not really because you can't always advance the queue)

[next bloom]

its on for every deck

[round ore]

yee my pc exploded or smth
any help?

it crashed after using a white color card and playing a hand

[whole hatch]

does the cat tag even do anything 💀

[lean dune]

yes, meow

[white scarab]

It meows

[daring sluice]

meow

[split torrent]

anyone in here good at pixel art and likes isaac and has a lot of freetime

😭

[sterile nymph]

once i beat this game 100% im def gonna install like every mod lmao into "The Full House"™️

[lean dune]

mods are way more fun than grinding for comp++

[pale patrol]

grinding in mods for completion ++

ascended stake on every deck, sleeve and joker

[lean dune]

oh no

[latent nimbus]

the antimatter deck in the background:

[lean dune]

black deck ascendant stake:

[latent nimbus]

with balanced sleve it might not be that terrible tbh

[pale patrol]

game is really laughing at me for running a fresh save

[serene zealot]

im thinking this combo might be good

[pale patrol]

oh no lol

[serene zealot]

i got 3 marios thinking i wanted to make more and the game immediately crashed lol

[pale patrol]

oh there we go, real scores

[buoyant sierra]

(don't ban mods this is a funny haha i have no ill will behind it it was just the first thing that came to mind)

[lean dune]

lmao ||@mods get this user /j||

[tranquil vessel]

https://tenor.com/peh7X2kqRl5.gif

[pale patrol]

does crash even do anything in any scenario

[buoyant sierra]

in one of them it lets you straight up make code to your benefit (or detriment if you want a challenge)

[tranquil vessel]

crash is probably one of the coolest cards out there ngl

[pale patrol]

oh

[lean dune]

1/6 chance to do anything you want with your run, else you're screwed in some way

[pale patrol]

I have never used it because I thought it just crashed the game lol

[tranquil vessel]

it's only like a 5/6 chance it does that 😄

also the crashes can be pretty cool sometimes, visually speaking

[pale patrol]

well 2 not very good decks down

cruel blinds are so harsh

[exotic shadow]

This program also was flagged as a virus

[exotic shadow]

I mean we want to modify the code of balatro, and it does that.

[lean dune]

true

[umbral pilot]

those were the good ol days

[lean dune]

the good ol days of compiling steamodded for testing some change and ending up having to do it all over again because of something dumb

[warm pasture]

More like hell

[plucky snow]

Anyone able to make sense of this it usually happens when I try to use mods or do certain things

[plucky snow]

I honestly wanna know where you got the mods for this stuff

[whole hatch]

get like 775687 white holes and e3772 levels on high card

[round ore]

so its day like another huh

[exotic shadow]

I got lucky I didn't start steamoddef development until after lovley was released. So I like or compiled it once and then was like nope I'm using lovley

[white scarab]

I remember starting with a lovely-only mod because I didn’t like the 0.9.8 syntax

then I ported it to SMODS 1.0

[round ore]

do you know any similar mods to Galdur? cuz it crushes my game in main menu

[plucky snow]

Um

????

Can someone help me figure out what caused this

Cuz its happened 3 times

[exotic shadow]

Ah yes that's like mine except it still lovely only

[brisk seal]

Ty

[daring sluice]

if both lovely and steamodded are on the latest versions, ping eremel about it (preferably with the error log)

actually did eremel get that fix out

you might just have to update galdur

[tranquil vessel]

3 commits 5 hours ago, seems updated at least

[pure slate]

like how it came out, it could be a little brighter? but im happy with it

[cursive coral]

the contrast makes it a bit tough to read the words but if that's what you're going for it works

[pure slate]

yeah, i should probably make the text brighter, the contrast is a little efgh

[cursive coral]

could always just add a stroke/glow/inverse shadow so that it pops

may make it look more 3d than you're intending though

[pure slate]

MorganTrue

[cursive coral]

luckily dark on dark is easy enough to bring into a more reasonable contrast because the human eye is much better at reading on dark than light

[elder karma]

I used mods to spawn in chicot without using the soul, and i havent discovered it on this file, now im stuck with a half-unlocked version, he counts for my collection but is stuck looking like this 😭

[plucky snow]

LOL

[tacit zealot]

did you have to do anything special to make this work? or is it just like perma_mult in the ability?

[elder karma]

i tried beating a run with it to see if it would clear it..

now theres a seal on the lock 💀

[tacit zealot]

gotta seal in the freshness and the secret y'know

[elder karma]

yeah

im not desperately tryna get rid of it, its not a big deal, but it just looks so goofy to me

[tacit zealot]

yeah I think I have the same thing going on with my Yorick

[umbral pilot]

same experience but on the user side of things. used the patcher, got annoyed by it, then started hacking together lovely

serendipity

[grim wraith]

hey uh

does anyone know how to select a joker on a controller? not to move it but actually select it

[blissful nebula]

A button while hovering over it on xbox

playstation idk

[visual plank]

is there a mod that makes it so jokers from packs can break the joker limit?

every pack joker has had its "select" button for me greyed out and i can select them despite being at the joker limit

im not sure if it's almanac doing that or just a bug

[exotic shadow]

Well I'm glad you did

[sturdy canyon]

i think you won

[daring lichen]

can never be too careful

[tacit zealot]

you lost actually, you needed ee100 to win

[sturdy canyon]

in the recent rtgame balatro cryptid stream

imagine graduating from uni and this is the first thing you think of

an rt game stream

[rigid jewel]

uni students yearn for unbalanced Balatro gameplay

[sturdy canyon]

lowkey rtgame should've used my beloved glowing deck

that way i can advertise jimbos pack to a worldwide scale

[white scarab]

I’m pretty sure he read your name when going through the deck list lol

[grand geode]

there we go

[sturdy canyon]

my name is not wawa person 😭

[grand geode]

hi wawa person

[sturdy canyon]

damnit

[grand geode]

and this

[exotic shadow]

Oh yeah I watched the rt game stream and i saw lucky joker and was like "I built that"

I also saw semicolon before that but it didn't trigger the same response

Actually I think lucky joker is my first actual content added to balatro

So it has a bit of a special place in my heart

[versed bough]

wait what??

OH MY GOD HE PLAYED CRYPTID

[modern lion]

Hey does anyone know why reverie freezes my game whenever i skip a blind to receive a stub tag (the one that gives a free film pack)

[tidal nimbus]

How do you recolor the legendary joker background?

[versed bough]

anyone have a midi of the balatro theme

[junior rock]

the background of a legendary is a separate sprite in the files

so you would do to the background what you would do to any other joker sprite to modify it

[sullen pagoda]

I just recently completed C+ and decided to try modded Balatro. What would yall recommend as a first mod? Maybe something not too wacky

[quiet moth]

Bunco probs! its a vanilla like mod

[mental river]

Hii!! Where do I find a guide for creating and adding brand new Jokers to the game? I want make a silly little mod for me and some friends that add us as new Jokers. Is there a guide like that anywhere here? Doesn't seem to be anything like that pinned anywhere I've looked.

[grand geode]

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

i haven't watched this but
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zp-4U5TlbxY

[mental river]

Quick response, thank you so much!!

I'll give them both a look over

[quartz harbor]

I’ve just recently been getting into modded coming off of c++, KCVanilla and Extra Credit are very high quality

Just adding new jokers without changing the vanilla game

[sullen pagoda]

I'm going to try Extra Credit I think

(it has fewer jonklers)

[daring lichen]

I have a question, I've seen a lot of people play modded and they have this effect where when they have duplicate consumables they stack into one space and have an x and a number on top. what mod is that?

[sullen pagoda]

https://github.com/OceanRamen/Saturn

[rare shell]

Cartomancer

[sullen pagoda]

or maybe not Saturn?

[rare shell]

idk, cartomancer does the same thing I thought?

[paper vortex]

does anyone know if theres a mod that makes the top card of the deck visible

because my brain has been fried from misprint knowledge

and i really do NOT want to do the thing every time

[rare shell]

I'm using it currently and it does stack cards while showing the number of cards

[umbral pilot]

is the misprint trick actually useful?

[junior rock]

it can be

[daring lichen]

i will say one of my favorite things about modded balatro is when your hand does something it shouldn't and you have to closely scroll through your 84 jokers to find out what caused it

[paper vortex]

ive been consumed

i close my eyes and i see misprint

[umbral pilot]

you're too far gone

[paper vortex]

i see two $10 bills in my wallet and i think "this could be a three of a kind, better check misprint"

[grand geode]

nah it's Incantation

[daring lichen]

how is there 3 different mods

[rare shell]

now I'm just confused lol

[daring lichen]

just to stack cards

[grand geode]

Saturn also implements Incantation's functions and is used by BU, Incantation is the original one which stacks consumables, Cartomancer disables rendering big decks and makes selecting Jokers easier

[grand geode]

Pick your poison

(it's better not to use Misprint trick at all to save your sanity)

[quiet moth]

even better! one of my art’s is in there haha

[sullen pagoda]

For me Misprint creates a weird dynamic, where I acknowledge that I'm playing every hand suboptimially because it's just so tedious

Oh dear. I just realized what you have to do in order to add new jokers

How do different mods coexist in the same installation with all the code patching?

[grand geode]

carefully

(most of them only use the base SMODS implementation)

[quiet moth]

its also why playtesting with other popular mods can be important! but i think most people load in one at a time depending on the scale of the mod.

[lean dune]

before we had full steamodded APIs for it, they really didn't

[grand geode]

can vouch

[daring sluice]

real developers test their mod with the entirety of elbes pack

cough cough

[coral shale]

I had to check that it's a thing

[daring sluice]

true ....

[coral shale]

not going to spoil what it does tho 👀

[gilded tulip]

You know what

Screw it

We ball

[lean dune]

we jimball

[gilded tulip]

The ball is in y'alls court

Ping me in any threads that already have a message pinned by me and I'll retroactively add sell value

[plucky snow]

Is there anyone who can help me with this

[lean dune]

... my common_events doesn't even have that many lines

can you send the file at lovely/dump/functions/common_events.lua from within your mods folder?

[plucky snow]

It confused me so fucking much this is the smallest crash log and the last one I had was upfront and I got rid of the mod causing it

[lean dune]

oh wait

[plucky snow]

Yeah

[lean dune]

JellyMod

I can't help you with that

if it still crashes after removing JellyMod, I can try

[plucky snow]

Honestly ty even if it doesnt work I'm so bad at reading code or knowing waht to look for

[exotic shadow]

One for #1228149931257237664 and one for #1286410784645058631

[lean dune]

JellyMod is basically one of the first joker mods that existed, there was no joker API or any common ground to make these compatible, so even when it wasn't completely outdated, it was incompatible with any other mod that would add jokers

[gilded tulip]

Even if I don't respond the value will grow

[plucky snow]

[lean dune]

is there any more crash log? there's empty space but i see the down arrow

i can add a safeguard that should fix that crash, but I'm wondering how it happened

[grand geode]

@gilded tulip #1248249207526002698 #1260833176935465063 #1252651252853112936

also riding the ping, what's the mod team's consensus on Modding category being visible to everyone by default and a dedicated support forum? please reply ping me for this

[grim wraith]

Is there an archive out there for custom deck skins (as in the Friends of Jimbo updates)? I know DeckSkinsLite exists as a framework for adding skins but idk if a repository of skins people have made exists

[wispy oar]

Is there a Steammodded mod that allows you to spawn jokers/cards?

[daring sluice]

debugplus, lovely mod but regardless

[plucky snow]

Well I had a different crash I think the "modpack" is just too much together that doesnt work together

Thats the new crash thats really causing a problem

[lean dune]

that mod list is massive

[wispy oar]

And you cant add jokers to your deck, no?

[lean dune]

you should try to find out what mod(s) are causing issues

[lean dune]

yes you can, hover over the joker in the collection and press 3

[daring sluice]

well not to your DECK

[gentle osprey]

What happened to Jen's almanicv I can't find it

I can't spell

[wispy oar]

Oh, I mean to my slots

[white scarab]

It’s still there
You can find it most easily in discord.gg/unbalanced

[wispy oar]

And how can you make them negative?

[white scarab]

(And there’s a thread for it here! #1262697083438235729)

[gentle osprey]

Thankies :3

[lean dune]

hover and press (ctrl+)q to cycle through editions

there's a list of keybinds if you hold tab btw

[plucky snow]

What would you suggest I do to weed out the things causing the problems

[daring sluice]

someone else is getting this exact crash too, odd

prolly just someone making a bad patch

[lean dune]

you'd be there forever trying to take out one mod at a time. you should bisect your mod list, i.e. take out half your mods at a time and remove whatever loaded successfully until you have a minimal collection of mods that crash

[grand geode]

binary search 🔥

[grim wraith]

Is there a way to set mod priority?

Also, again, wondering if anyone knows of some neat deck skins to look at

[sturdy canyon]

why;d i get pinged wth

[grand geode]

"priority": 0, in your json

or ---PRIORITY: 0 in your header

[grim wraith]

Is zero considered higher priority or lower?

[exotic shadow]

How do you just get it to stop printing?

Whar

[grand geode]

lower value is higher prio

[grim wraith]

Cool

[exotic shadow]

0 is default priority

[grim wraith]

Ah

So if I wanted a mod to load last I’d set it to like 2 or something?

[exotic shadow]

Yewh

[lean dune]

"like 2"

[exotic shadow]

Some mofs like yo go crazy with priority

But like 2 makes sense

[sturdy canyon]

yea

[lean dune]

guess the mod

[sturdy canyon]

(literally just cryptid's priority with an extra 9)

[exotic shadow]

Jens

[lean dune]

yes

[exotic shadow]

I've used priority in lovely patches more than smods

[random silo]

<@&1133519078540185692>

[unkempt echo]

got 'em 🔫

[exotic shadow]

🙏

[sturdy canyon]

fastest shot in the west

[unreal juniper]

idea: consumable, rerolls selected joker to a rarity above, +x ante / +100% blind size

[sturdy canyon]

me omw to sacrifice obelisk for triboulet (fair deal)

[unreal juniper]

+omeganum% blind increase

[sullen pagoda]

+1 ante can actually be an upside if you have a winning but perishable build

[unreal juniper]

so probably like +some amount% blind size

like +200-300% maybe

[plucky snow]

So rn it looks like lovely is causing problems can someone help me with this

[tranquil vessel]

steamodded updated its Tags recently, one of the mods in your modlist might not have been updated to match? 🤔

try to figure out which mod(s) it is

[plucky snow]

Ah ok

[random silo]

I wonder, can anyone explain the beef between crimson heart and denver?

[daring lichen]

if anyone is up to the task, i'd love to take a crack at it myself, but a cool mod you could add in could be something like helldivers consumables based on the stategems, maybe some jokers based on the support weapons? I saw someone posted about how to make your own so i'll probably try making some but if anyone who is more experienced wants

to

a custom deck called the liberty deck with like 5 negative Mr. Bones but double the Ante to be the difficulty of helldivers but with redoploys

[white scarab]

There’s beef?

[daring sluice]

who are either of those people

[sturdy canyon]

mod guy, mod enthusiast

[sturdy canyon]

Balatro Drama: EXPLAINED video when

[white scarab]

If it’s what I’m thinking of then it’s not even really beef lol

[warm pasture]

Dude who are these people

Tryna look them up and it's crickets

[daring sluice]

more importantly why should anyone care

[frosty sequoia]

WOuld it be possible to request a mod that I would think would be extremely easy to make, but I know nothing so I can't do it myself?

[lean dune]

probably

[warm pasture]

https://dontasktoask.com/

[frosty sequoia]

Just trying to be nice, But would it be possible to make a mod that just allows CTRL + R to start a new run

[daring sluice]

this already exists in vanilla

[frosty sequoia]

What

[daring sluice]

hold r

[frosty sequoia]

holy shit im tarded

[daring sluice]

[signal imp]

what is an injector and why do i need it to be lovely in order to download cryptid

[lean dune]

basically in order to run mods, we need a way to change the game's code at runtime

[daring lichen]

its an evil virus that steals all of your information and sells it to the nsa

[lean dune]

this is what lovely does

[daring sluice]

so true

[signal imp]

thats not very lovely

[lean dune]

wtf you're not supposed to reveal that

[daring sluice]

lovely secrets revealed....

[lean dune]

did we not put you under an NDA?

[signal imp]

jokes on you im not from the USA

[daring lichen]

my bad, forgot the first rule

[lean dune]

grave mistake

[signal imp]

i dont talk to the NSA

[daring sluice]

nsa talks to you

[daring lichen]

[signal imp]

no fr tho i shouldnt be worried about anything when using the guide for downloading cryptid right?

[daring sluice]

ye u should be fine

[signal imp]

#it has like 40k members in their discord

[daring sluice]

also

only brights eu player ever ?

[lean dune]

more like 8k

[signal imp]

thats alot

[lean dune]

but yeah it's all safe

[signal imp]

ok good

i wanna try it out

what about the jen mod extra thing in the cryptid server

[daring lichen]

while we are on the subject of mod requests, can anyone add a modded joker that gives you +4 mult

[signal imp]

or one that gives +5 and - 1

[daring sluice]

jenny mod

[lean dune]

it's total pandemonium

[daring lichen]

no you're fine all the source code is available to comb through it's not anything bad

[signal imp]

ok im just gonna trust it

[lean dune]

it's about as unbalanced wrt cryptid as cryptid is to vanilla

[signal imp]

hopefully they dont remote detonate my pc

[daring sluice]

never say never

[daring lichen]

that's actually line 1 of the code.

it's right at the tippy top, first thing it does

[signal imp]

is line 2 to not do it?

then its a syntax error (python reference)

[lean dune]

its open source and available on github, it pretty much wouldn't last on here it it were in any way malicious

[signal imp]

yeah makes sense

[lean dune]

but who knows when I'll pull the trigger...

[signal imp]

bros seeing red 😭 😭

[lean dune]

lol jk

[signal imp]

ransom everything on my computre

[daring sluice]

i could make a malicious mod and it would take at least a day to notice im sure

[lean dune]

I'm at least 50% sure I'd be busted on the spot if I were to try to put something malicious into steamodded

[daring sluice]

y'all could NOT get too comfortable with just installing and running mods

[signal imp]

yeah i mean even im not stupid enough to download a mod as soon as it releases

need other people to test it first for me

[daring sluice]

it was about a week or so ago that you pushed a blatant 100% crash

[lean dune]

at the same time at least 95% of y'all can't actually read

[signal imp]

comb through the code cuz i have no clue how to do that

[daring sluice]

SMODS.mods["Balatro"] ⁉️

[signal imp]

w

[lean dune]

didn't I fix that one right away

[daring sluice]

never hopefully

[placid folio]

just saw this; where can I find some of these mods? any webpage in particular they're on or just github?

oh wait I misread what you're referring to here

[signal imp]

modding

[daring sluice]

after it got caught yeah idk if you found it yourself or via being told

[signal imp]

#1209506514763522108

i think

[daring sluice]

ik i left a comment on the broken commit and posted about it here

[signal imp]

me when im gonna play cryptid in a bit

:happy:

https://tenor.com/view/dexter-get-real-hello-kitty-silly-dexter-morgan-gif-15990759827589823815

[daring sluice]

anyways, as for malware, you could very easily hide malicious compiled bytecode in an asset somewhere and just find a sneaky way to run it

[signal imp]

so no point in looking through a source code since its near impossible to chatch anyway

catch

[daring sluice]

not exactly

[signal imp]

especially considering i have no clue what im doing

[daring lichen]

no you could catch it, but nobody here reads through the source code

[daring sluice]

you could look for any instance of a load function (so loadstring, loadfile, dofile, etc)

and just see if any of those are suspicious

[daring lichen]

he's just saying to watch out with what you download from here because there is a chance someone slips through the cracks

[daring sluice]

^

nobody has posted malware yet but it's probably inevitable and id prefer people be careful

[daring lichen]

he

[signal imp]

yea im probably only gonna install the lovely thing the cryptid mod and eventualy the jen mod

[daring lichen]

he's also describing exactly how he plans to

[daring sluice]

i would never

[signal imp]

yep cant belive ur gonna steal my information

instead of asking

[daring sluice]

you need steamodded too btw

[signal imp]

whats steammodded

[daring sluice]

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

follow the install guide here

[signal imp]

My name is Walter Hartwell White. I live at 308 Negra Arroyo Lane, Albuquerque, New Mexico, 87104.

no need for malware

isnt lovely the same as steammodded

[lean dune]

no

lovely is the injector, steamodded is more of a modding framework

[signal imp]

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

can i just use this yt vid?

[lean dune]

no, use the wiki page

this one's a bit outdated

[signal imp]

ok

i now need a step by step guide

or im gonna blow up my pc

[daring lichen]

I followed the guide on github

from steammodded

that was pretty straightforward for me

[lean dune]

it should be

else I will explode it and make a new one

[daring lichen]

the only thing they don't mention that either does matter or doesn't, is to rename the mod names to remove "main"

[signal imp]

are u sure

[lean dune]

for Steamodded or any mods using it, it doesn't matter at all

[signal imp]

in the video it says do not rename cryptid files

[lean dune]

for Talisman it still does for some reason

[daring lichen]

no clue. not very technologically proficient. just didn't work until I did that

oh i did have talisman

and it's the mod folders not like the mods

[signal imp]

i cant even find the download button

this is going great

[lean dune]

my real name is public information for some reason. do with that what you will

[lean dune]

for what

[signal imp]

the first thing

Steammoded

[lean dune]

the wiki page literally has a download link

where it says click here

[torn charm]

Do any of yall know the best mod for making custom deck designs (specifically front designs) I've seen a lot of different mods but a lot of them seem to be either partially broken or don't cover everything I need.

[daring lichen]

everyone has way more public info than they realize

[signal imp]

oh ok

[daring sluice]

not sure why you would need a mod for this

ive only known them to be drawn by hand

[torn charm]

Yee, not the texture creation, just injection

I've already got a texture in progress, just dunno what the best way to put it in the game is

[daring sluice]

https://github.com/Steamopollys/Steamodded/wiki/SMODS.Center#smodsback-formerly-smodsdeck https://github.com/Steamopollys/Steamodded/wiki/SMODS.Atlas

[lean dune]

Plain steamodded is good enough, but you might want to use Malverk

wait I can't read

fronts

[daring sluice]

isn't malverk for skin mods n stuff

not custom decks

[torn charm]

Thanks!

[signal imp]

im here and dont know what to click

[daring lichen]

green button. download zip

[daring sluice]

❌

[daring lichen]

oh shoot

[signal imp]

YES

THANKS

[daring lichen]

i did mine wrong then

works fine enough for me

[daring sluice]

ya you can't download the raw lovely source

[signal imp]

Chrome blockde

it

[daring sluice]

happens yeah

[daring lichen]

uh oh

[daring sluice]

https://github.com/Steamopollys/Steamodded/wiki#step-1-anti-virus-setup

[lean dune]

I got confused reading textures

[daring lichen]

is that bad if i download the raw lovely source code?

my mods seem to work

[daring sluice]

if you want to compile it yourself then you can

[daring lichen]

my credit score.... is the same still....

[lean dune]

you don't need raw lovely source code unless you're compiling it

[daring sluice]

did you compile it yourself

[signal imp]

thats for windows

defender

[daring sluice]

steps should be roughly similar for whatever antivirus you're using

[signal imp]

why cant balatro have just a workshop on steam lol

[daring lichen]

I clicked a button at like 4 in the morning and now my balatro is modded i'm just gonna call it a win

[daring sluice]

and chrome won't completely prevent you from downloading something it thinks is malicious unless you have safesearch or soemthing on

usually you can just click on the popup and hit download anyways

[signal imp]

i turned off chrome safe browsing

my pc might explode

wish me luck

[split torrent]

I GOT IT

I GOT THE GFUEL SHIT WORKING

[lean dune]

because it doesn't. even if it did, it would be incompatible with Lovely and thus all mods we have as of yet

[daring lichen]

I do have a question, i know theres a lot of mods here that will let you build your own cards and stuff, can y'all give me a good example of one?

[daring lichen]

a gfuel mod?

[lean dune]

you can just use firefox

[split torrent]

no

it's based on the isaac item

speaking of which

[signal imp]

my pc just exploded guys

damn

[daring lichen]

haha gottem again

[split torrent]

is there a context event that's triggered when a joker is explicitly added to the hand (not to the collection)

add_to_deck triggers when it's in the collection, not when i want it to 😅

wait actually

nevermind i had an idea

[daring sluice]

for starters it's wildly unsafe, steam wouldn't allow it

[signal imp]

actually?

i thought it would be safe tbh

[lean dune]

lovely basically enables ACE

[wispy oar]

How can I use lua code to create a random uncommon/rare joker?

[daring sluice]

ya pretty sure steam only allows workshop for stuff that's sandboxed and whatnot

[lean dune]

which is anything but safe if put in the wrong hands

[daring sluice]

but all the sensitive lua functions are completely exposed

[daring lichen]

I was wondering still if theres a good place that i can do this, or if i just need to know a little bit of coding

[signal imp]

what now?

it says copy mod7

but i have no mod

[daring lichen]

go to your bottom folder on the left side and delete it

[signal imp]

what mod directory

[lean dune]

return to the steamodded page

you're done installing lovely

[daring sluice]

download lovely and move version.dll to that folder you have open rn

[lean dune]

actually nvm

you're not

[signal imp]

do i copy and paste it or move it

[lean dune]

I can't read

[signal imp]

cuz it says copy

[daring sluice]

it makes no difference

[lean dune]

you put version.dll from the download into that folder you have open

[signal imp]

i pasted it in

now i go to steammodded?

[lean dune]

yeah

that's all you need for lovely

[signal imp]

ok

now im on step 3a

im cooking

huh

[lean dune]

you're combining steps

[signal imp]

wdym

[lean dune]

step 2 just tells you to extract the zip file

you'll move the contents to the right place later

(step 5)

[signal imp]

ok it is extracted

hmm

nvm i think i fixed it

now how do i add cryptid

[lean dune]

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

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

[signal imp]

i have installed them but now im confused on why there are two steammodded

[lean dune]

get rid of the Steamodded from the cryptid release

[signal imp]

also the video is outdated right?

[lean dune]

it's mostly fine, but for example it tells you to install an older version of lovely

[signal imp]

ok

it also has a lovely folder inside their mods folder

which confuses me

ok ive done everything

now we launch

this means it works right?

[daring sluice]

yup

[signal imp]

nice

can i use both mods at the same time?

[daring sluice]

yep, and that's true for pretty much every mod that works

compatibility is a focus for most mods

except almanac

[signal imp]

ok good

i want to download almanac eventually

can i play it with cryptid and talisman

[daring sluice]

almanac is very verbal about it if you have an incompatible mod installed dw

[signal imp]

also whats the difference between cryptid and talisman

[daring sluice]

talisman is just a library allowing for the score limit to go higher as well as some other stuff

[signal imp]

oh ok so just a compatibility mod

alr thx

im gonna go off now to do some weird balatro cryptid stuff

lol

[daring lichen]

so i can't just hit this button to download something?

[signal imp]

i guess not

[lean dune]

that's usually what you should do

[daring lichen]

oh that's what i was saying i was doing I thought someone said to do it the other way by clicking the version

[lean dune]

some mods have releases, these can be more stable

[daring lichen]

ahhhh

[lean dune]

that's not always the case tho, but sometimes you can hit a bugged version if you download from source

in that case, you might need to downgrade or wait for a fix

[tame saddle]

Is there a mod that shows thte amount of jokers instead of each duplicate joker side by side because i really cant see my unique jokers anymore

[signal imp]

these mods made my add blocker no longer work

cant believe this

[daring sluice]

cartomancer

might help with managing lots of jokers

[tame saddle]

Ok thanks

[tall seal]

wtf is going on with my balatro

i dont have any mods on rn

[signal imp]

my balatro disappeared 😱 😱

[daring lichen]

what do you guys think about a joker that gives 7x mult to your most played hand at the risk of destroying adjacent jokers?

too much? too little?

[latent nimbus]

Madness 2

[daring lichen]

i'm thinking a 1/10 chance

[latent nimbus]

also i imagine this would be.. always take

[daring lichen]

I wanna make a set of jokers based on helldivers 2 and this one is gonna be the 500kg

[signal imp]

Can i use this to unlock jokers in the official balatro

[obsidian thunder]

no 💔

you do realize that there’s a button that will unlock everything on your save right

[plush halo]

ahh, i got a crash but i'm not sure which mod did it

[daring sluice]

update steamodded

[plush halo]

thanks 🙂

[plush halo]

do you know if i need to back up my mods folder?

[daring sluice]

naw

just delete your current steamodded and replace it with the latest version

[plush halo]

do i need to redo lovely?

[daring sluice]

nope

it's always as simple as just deleting the old and copying in the new unless lovely gets an update

[plush halo]

according to my crash output, my steammodded is still 1.0.0 not 1.0.1

[daring sluice]

it's about the minor version

[tacit ledge]

7x is a lot of xmult

[plush halo]

yeah what they said -- it's hard to get without scaling a joker

[daring sluice]

(by date, you'll see it's 1219a not 1103a)

[tacit ledge]

i think the idea is interesting, 7x is way too much xmult

even if it always destroyed adjacent jokers that'd be an insta take

[plush halo]

what does "modded" mean here?

[tacit ledge]

also i go by they/them 🙏

[plush halo]

one of the cards it made was clownfish, no mod?

[storm forum]

Non-vanilla.

[plush halo]

oh sorry

[tacit ledge]

no worries it happens

[plush halo]

OHH ok thank you

[tacit ledge]

i should play some more cryptid

last time i touched it, it took 3 hours for the game to calculate the hand

good times

[sturdy canyon]

jokers... and get this... from MODS....

[daring sluice]

😭

[storm forum]

https://tenor.com/view/doctor-robotnik-eggman-sonic-the-gif-6247036

[tame saddle]

with cryptid is there a way to get exotic jokers without killing all the rest of my jokers

[wooden steeple]

no (unless you use doe/antimatter)

[grand geode]

technically Lock but you only get to save 1 jonkler

https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/1264606855246647430.webp?size=48

[wooden steeple]

well yea, i assumed they meant without doing the destroy jonkler effect

[grand geode]

all minus 1 is better than all

[wooden steeple]

true

[grand geode]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/1311900934829379685.webp?size=48

[tame saddle]

does adding mods while having a run already stop you from continuing the mod?

because i added nopeus and cartomancer and i cant continue i dont want to lose my save though

[limpid lake]

wormhole deck

[round ore]

is theere any mod that make the poker cards turn into another cards?

[dire oasis]

Is there a resource on how to uninstall the lovely mod loader tried verifying integrity of files and deleting from app data but keeps coming back when I launch

[lean dune]

delete version.dll from the game folder

[dire oasis]

Thank u

Should I verify integrity after or does it not matter

[lean dune]

no need, lovely doesn't mess with the game files

[dire oasis]

Alr thank u

[orchid echo]

Hmm was three hours for a turn calculation a joke?

I got the joker that retriggers jokers to the left for every joker on the right... I may have over done it

How many calculations can cryptid handle?

[latent nimbus]

i win.

[orchid echo]

Lmao

I'm at 10 million calculations still going

[tranquil vessel]

win screen looking like GOTY nomination balatro background gameplay

[daring lichen]

could anyone help me with an error message

[pale patrol]

the cryptid mod discord. There's a mod called jen's alamanac which has most of these consumables. They put out a modpack with a few other content mods inside. Other than that I have familiar mod also installed

despite being a few rather large content mods I ahvent experienced many crashes unless im going deep into endless

[daring lichen]

i can't figure out why this is happening

[pale patrol]

you need to install talisman

[daring lichen]

thanks

[tranquil vessel]

Balatro Version: 1.0.0b-DEVELOPMENT
❓ ❓ ❓

[rigid jewel]

There's so much that's wrong

No Talisman for Cryptid

Outdated dev version of Balatro (I think?)

[tranquil vessel]

yeah that's the weird one

[stray rivet]

why does lovely get flagged as malware

im trying to install cryptid but im having so much trouble with it because of that

[daring sluice]

injects code into the game

similar to malicious programs

[stray rivet]

damn

is there no other way to do it

also it is open source right

[daring lichen]

ny steam says it's updates

both of my games are that version. i thought that's what steammodded did

any idea why i

am getting this message?

me and my buddy both are getting it

[wide crypt]

Can you mods for mobile

[daring lichen]

mainly whenever we're in the deck selection

[carmine heart]

no

[wide crypt]

Ok

[wild trench]

ive been on this screen for a few minutes now. ohno

its still going up

[daring lichen]

today i had that happen for a full hour

i didn't even get that many chips

it was just so many calculations

[wild trench]

its 57 aces plus boredom

oh it finished

[orchid echo]

I have 49 Jokers being retriggered 19 times oh god

It's been an hour

[daring sluice]

part of me feels bad for unleashing balatro like this

meh someone woulda done it at some point

im innocent officer

[umbral pilot]

yup, open source and available to audit if you'd like

I can attest to it not being malware

[stray rivet]

you're the dev of course you attest to it 💀

i mean i trust it

its just a pain in the ass to get my antivirus to behave with it

i just wanna play cryptid 😔

[cursive coral]

well i don't think it's wise if the dev attested to it being malware

wouldn't get many downloads then

[stray rivet]

you know what i meant lmfao

[cursive coral]

it's all gucci, just add an exception rule to your AV and it'll slide through

[stray rivet]

see the thing is

the way my antivirus is set up, my moms ex has to handle that

because it's some bullshit corporate version he put on it

so i have to wait for him to get home from work

[daring lichen]

was anyone able to help with this? it's a real pain

was a little worried i wasn't gonna get it

but i just barely eeked by

[brisk seal]

nice

[slate fjord]

anyone have any idea as to why lovely injector for steammodded may not be working?
i drag the file from github into the game directroy (version.dll) and through %appdata% i made a mod folder for steammodded.
the version.dll file gets deleted from the game directory for the game to even open. i've tried to uninstall and verify files to make sure everythings okay. im new to modding as a whole and balatro, but i just want some custom card skins :>

[cerulean locust]

windows defender is most likely deleting the file

lovely triggers some false positive iirc

you just gotta add the balatro directory to your windows defender exclusions

[buoyant coral]

is there a mod that lets you alter what shows up in the store? i'm trying to test some builds

[mystic oar]

how do u spawn a boss blinnd with debug plus

[unreal juniper]

are these values good?

upgrades a selectedd joker to random one of higher rarity
common -> uncommon 10% blind increase
uncommon -> rare 50% blind increase
rare -> legendary 100% blind increase

special cryptid
leg -> epic 200% inc
epic -> exotic 400% inc

[sterile nymph]

im curious; do mods disable achievements?

[unreal juniper]

yes, but there is a mod to allow achievements with mods

[sterile nymph]

oh; cool; i was gonna use like misc mods like Galdur

[vapid skiff]

Is there a mod that let's you reload a run from a certain point?

[unreal juniper]

what if you upgrade a exotic joker it becomes common

itd be really funny

[cursive coral]

i think debugplus has save states that might work

[vapid skiff]

Thank you

[magic minnow]

when I Googled, I also found these two mods https://github.com/OceanRamen/Brainstorm
https://github.com/papauschek/balatro-save-load
But it looks like the DebugPlus dev actively updates it, so that might be the best option

[sage zenith]

hey so i have a slight problem i downloaded cryptid and now when i play and i play a hand it doesnt have the plus chips animation, or plus mult they just go up and go down without showing how its scored, is there a way to fix this?

Anyone know how to fix?

[pseudo raven]

I'm running cryptid and my current run I've run away from whats reasonable by abusing Astral lucky red sealed rigged 2s. Which mod is the one that let's you turn animations off I left my computer to shower and 40 minutes later the hand was still going and wasn't half way done.

I love the mod but the game was never designed to handle this

[grand geode]

Look in Talisman settings

[pseudo raven]

Where is? I'm a trained monkey when it comes to programs.

Also how high does the cryptid mod's scoring go? The hand was up to e2e20 when I left for work.

[wanton rapids]

basically no limit

[grand geode]

main menu, mods, find Talisman, config

[pseudo raven]

Thank

[pseudo raven]

Based. Really love how cryptid incentivises playing as greedy as possible and how occasionally you'll just massively screw yourself over it.

[tacit ledge]

ive DONE IT

now to never play modded balatro again

gameplay update is so broken lol

[pseudo raven]

overflowed the joker slots

[tacit ledge]

negative overflowed... i cant add any more jokers

😔

[pseudo raven]

I'm content to just oil lamp negative joker

I love you oil lamp

[tacit ledge]

i gameplayed update the notebook and then sold it. do not gameplay update the notebook and then sell it if your gameplay update is at 2.64e86% for each condition satisfied

bad idea

[limpid lake]

talisman config has an option to set the score limit
the default (omeganum) is so high it uses a numeric representation that i don't actually know what it means

[pseudo raven]

RIP

I am loving how stupid 2D is as a joker

Especially with a 12 card selection limit and 40 blue prints

Largest number of scored cards so far has been 2371

[tacit ledge]

that is so real

[pseudo raven]

And I only know that because finally at ante 15 I found a wee joker

And it went from 0 to 18888 chips after the game was done calculating the hand

[tacit ledge]

that is quite powerful

i think so far oil lamp and gameplay update might be the strongest cards around

the fact that oil lamp works on themselves, gameplay update works on themselves and they work on eachother might be the stupidest thing ive seen so far

[pseudo raven]

I highly recommend the deck that let's you buy sectral cards from the shop

[pseudo raven]

I love oil lamp so much

Its so stupid

Just lost my oil lamp to an adversary

I am using our lord and savior perkao to farm delete cards to get rid of everything but the jokers that will continue to benefit my current run.

Part of me wants to fill my deck with thousands of negative steel 2s but it does not really put a dent in the score at this point.

And Astral does not trigger from hand

[tacit ledge]

yeah your deck kind of stops mattering after a certain point lol

[pseudo raven]

I'm using DNA to continue to fill it just because I have a negative blue joker somewhere and my handsize is like 50. I'm going to keep pumping my selection size as well just because thats currently the bottle neck

[tacit ledge]

fair fair

im currently keeping this run going to see if i can get a naneinf high card without jokers

[pseudo raven]

I'm going to try and farm legendary jokers when I'm done torching the shops.

[orchid echo]

Okay so.... I'm on third hour and 40th minute of scoring one hand of round 24.. the cake exotic is busted as fuck

[pseudo raven]

Based

[tacit ledge]

bad news naneinf hand doesnt exist. it overflows to 1 :(

[pseudo raven]

Based

[pseudo raven]

RIP

What jokers raise the power of scoring besides the one house shapped joker?

I desire MORE and its taking much too long to turn on

[ornate gull]

okay it was not this, im looking for one that shows stats when you hover on the joker

[visual vale]

Is Steamodded1.0.0 for a limited time edition? I can't find tabs to download that in Github.

very very new and looking to mod balatro, report im getting:

all ive done is download and run the steam modloader\

[nocturne lava]

Looks like you tried running the powershell injector method, initialize files through steam, and then follow this. https://github.com/Steamopollys/Steamodded/wiki

[somber drift]

So i've not got any external mods for balatro, but i'm using a custom skin with my pokemon mod, I'm wondering if there's a way to replace the names when the tarot cards show up, for example changing "Temperance" to "Pay Day" i know how to alter the art just don't know where i need to go for the text side of it

[lean dune]

are you just modifying files in the executable, or have you installed lovely/steamodded?

[somber drift]

i was changing files in the exe i don't know how to use lovely/steamodded

[lean dune]

generally not recommended because it's gone when the game updates and also incompatible with other mods

you can change text by altering localization/en-us.lua, but i wouldn't do it that way

[somber drift]

currently i've got a copy of the balatro folder copied to edit the textures but how i set it up as just an injection?

[lean dune]

this is how you install steamodded: https://github.com/Steamopollys/Steamodded/wiki

there's plenty examples for texture mods out there, one is included in steamodded's example files

for changing text, all you need to do is have a file at localization/en-us.lua within your mod and follow the format that the base game's language files provide

I just modded balatro for the first time because i really like how this mod looks, specifically this design

problem being is that it over writes the card base, so if its wildcard, steel card, mult card for example its very hard to tell, is there any way for these to have semi transpancy for example so that those are visable or do i just have to give up on using this mod? it truely is my favourite card visual mod

[lean dune]

changing opacity could work, but I'm not sure how it would look on the base cards?

maybe instead the enhancement textures could be changed

[humble plover]

i belive these get overlayed over any enchancement though, right?

[lean dune]

enhancement textures are drawn on top of the base texture

[gloomy nimbus]

Is that high contrast cards ?

That looks good

[humble plover]

[west hill]

I don’t think these are base textures, they’re suit textures that’ll be on fronts

[humble plover]

its this mod from nexus mods, theres a few options

[gloomy nimbus]

Ew nexus

[west hill]

It would need reworking to make enhancements visible

[humble plover]

yeah im just looking for some pointers on what to do to make these work with enhancements

and i can do the photoshop work required

[gloomy nimbus]

Use steamodded built in options

[west hill]

The suit pups are drawn on top of everything else, so to see the enhancement you’d need to have some opacity

[humble plover]

for me, i had to replace the game files for these to work, i didnt see a way to do it in steammodded

[humble plover]

thats what i thought

but then they say otherwise

[nocturne lava]

You can try making the card faces more transparent, and settle for maybe something like Luna's enhancements, which might let you differentiate enough between types easier at a glance, but it would be a very makeshift solution.
https://github.com/LunaAstraCassiopeia/LunasBalatroMods/tree/main/EnhancedEnhancements

[humble plover]

so, what does enchanced enhancements do? im a little confused

[lean dune]

oh this is the card pips haha, my bad then

in that case some opacity can probably do

[humble plover]

yeah,,

[nocturne lava]

It replaces the enhancements with different textures, like these three would now be your Bonus, Mult, and Wild cards. While not ideal, the textures should be easier to see than just different patterns on the base card back for enhancements.

[humble plover]

mmm

would anyone happen to have the sprite sheet for base enhancements so i can have a look at that? or know where to locate it

[nocturne lava]

Unzip your Balatro, then resources>textures>1x or 2x>enhancers.

[humble plover]

gotcha, i was just wondering where

tyty

ill go see if i can either, make those less intrusive

or

if i cant

[humble plover]

make these transparent

ok yeah

i thought bout it again

and a gradient is my best bet i think

[humble plover]

so, is there an easy way to just put 2 replacement textures into a mod for steammodded?

[lean dune]

yeah, check the NegateTexturePack example mod or steamodded docs

[humble plover]

Is this the one im looking for if its just a deck skin?

[signal imp]

first cryptid run ever

is insane

[hollow ivy]

Hey so I had a question on modding: Is there a way for me to spawn my cards in so I can see if they work or do I just gotta get lucky with it appearing in shop or packs?

[humble plover]

yeahhh,, i lowered the ocapicty but that didnt seem to work

[storm forum]

https://github.com/WilsontheWolf/DebugPlus/releases/tag/v1.1.0

[obtuse idol]

I know these are pretty basic question but can you replace a Joker's texture without replacing the whole sprite sheet because I've made 2 different one and rn I just have it set up so there's 3 seperate mods, one for either of the changes and 1 for both

[west hill]

This doesn’t look like you lowered the opacity at all

[humble plover]

doesnt look like it, but i did

im not sure opacity works

i would hazard a guess that opacity isnt supported by the game

[west hill]

It is

[humble plover]

one sec then

i may be stupid

Trying again with this texture instead, made an adjustment

[tidal nimbus]

But wouldn't this texture means Gold and Steel card wouldn't work?

[humble plover]

Thats why i was making it transparent

but yeah it still doesnt look great

[pure slate]

i like how that looks tbh

[humble plover]

i think im going to make the cards have more obvious edges for the enchancements i think

[hollow ivy]

is there a way I can mod a card to always have a negative perk?

[humble plover]

mult and lucky specifically
