Please don’t take away my flush privileges
ikr let me flush
I think i reached the point where giving up isn’t an option even tho i’ll need to recode almost everything
gork
Fork
good luck
Thanks meta
glop
no more glop. only expo
damnit
That’s good tho
Because I suck at coding
That means i can flush
Yeah it would probably be hard
Just take the wildcard code and paste it in the suit done problem solved everyone’s happy until you find a suit blind and all your deck is debuffed
Trust me bro
Doesn't work like this sadly
e mults will be too easy to achieve
I need to edit lovers too
Nah it does you’re not thinking hard enough
and learn take_ownership
no
Does anyone know what the rarity for common, uncommon, and rare is? i need it for comparison with something else
Why are you taking ownership
Also no reason to do them because I scrapped ideas of suit changing jokers (Roaring knight/Dark Fountain/Titan for void suit, Seia/Mika/Nagisa for trinity suit and nil/blank for blanks)
is that a fucking melon
no
It’s a cantaloupe
cantaloupe
1 2 3 4
cantaloupe
+0.01 mult
🍈
0.7 0.25 0.05
Buy it
Alright thanks
ok I buy it
did nobody notice the 8.79 discards
Yeah
Shoutout aikoyori
What are you talking about??
shut up
yea its a green melon
A cantaloupe
He replied to me randomly
never in my life i heard that name
El melon cantalupo es un tipo de melon verdadero con pulpa dulce, aromatica y generalmente anaranjada
I feel bad for you
??????
it's known as a rockmelon in some regions
for you have not witnessed the cantaloupe
ITS JUST A MELÓN
yes
Cantaloupe
the Galia
Elon musk
?
be cantaloupe
horse walks in
so c ool !!
DEAF KEV - Invincible
It’s cinema
what
it plays the beat drop from the video
Dude i love this guy
xd
dude this car kicks ass
is that yamaha mouse
i'm driving go fuck yourself
jabibixd reference
he makes actual fire music
That damn cantaloupe
Guys I need feedback on the balancing of my new themed jokers
hello murphy
damn a murphy short just came up on my phone as soon as he showed up lmao
this is jokerforge?
no
add a jonkler card that changes the background music to the joker beatbox and gives 4x mult
legendary
woops, pulcinella is the legendary joker for that theme
pretty broken
Infected cards itself dont have any chips value, so they only get real value with editions/seals or with mutation from repetitions
oh thats nice
good afternoon modding chat
Infected. Interesting
good afternoon
How do you make one of those github balatro pages
freedom?
https://blizzowx.github.io/
something like this?
Its a template from notmario
https://github.com/notmario/balatrowebsitetemplate
modding chat i need your help
what would like a fucked up, evil and twisted (positive) version of amber acorn do
crash the game
clearly it should work like a zen ball from peggle and calculate which joker order would be optimal
i havent played peglin in SO long
the fuck is a zen ball
peggle, not peglin
can we have a peggle blind
guys i just got an intrusive thoughts card, should i use
yes
many monies
btw do yall play with crt on or off
basically it adjusts the angle of your shot slightly to what would be the best outcome for that shot
no monies 💔
crt on so my sprites look better than they actually are
i either play:
CRT off, no pixel smoothing
or smoothing and crt and sometimes bloom
yellow deck + beige sleeve my favorite modded combo so far
only issue is if sometimes i just get a horrible start
Purple deck (hands and discards are same) + gambling sleeve (reroll content of booster packs)
what mod are those from
Purple deck - prism
gambling sleeve - paya's terrible additions
honorable mention - freedom sleeve for fun runs (aikoyori's shenanigans)
What does freedom really even do though
I'm confused by description
Photochads.
You can put joker/playing cards/consumables into any of these slots
with more mods even more places
Ohhhh so like you could put a joker into a consumable slot or a consumable into the hand?
Yes
Big Gamba is the fucking joker of all time. im basically betting my run on a random chance with every hand i play
If I don't figure out how to change lovers then I will become shadow crystal boss in chapter 5
holy shit oops + hallucination + fantasy partner is cracked
toga's stuff mod is p2w!1!!!111!!11
freedom motif gonna go crazy
cpu joker could theoretically get you to naninf alone
very expensive tho
good luck getting 1e308 of anything physical
just invent a machine that creates dimensions

skill
when'd i say that i wasn't talking about omeganum
omeganum can never display naneinf
dude
pretty much!
omeganum infinity isnt real
or at least
it basically isnt real
you would need basically infinite ram for it to ever come to that point
cutely detonates your pc
lets goo
Who came on this Joker?!
yo??????????????
the urge to say 'me'
joker abuse
i dont know what removing my '_mod's does but hey
> doing a run of my own mod
> look inside
> photochad
literally not a single modded joker
What's your mod?
Not Released Yet™
And didja mention Photochad?
why are they blue
Quantum
who scratched the cards
Retriggers the effects once
sorry
aiko why are you sorry
What if i had a quantum computer
🤔
well yeah but the number is way too massive to store is my point
unhollow the stars
KTaNE reference
this ui is very good
Such a handsome face xD
i love vanilla jokers being inconsistent with their sounds
i just got a god run but i see an intrusive thoughts and the temptation is killing me
do it
if it kills me the 40th time i quit
this can't be real 🙏
defenitely not a 50% chance
might attempt to mod balatro again
Should've Mr bones
doesn't work since it's not in a blind
Bones
i just figured out the strat to getting a super good earlygame without an unfair deck in the aikoyori's shenanigans mod
step 1. get emerald
Bones
step 2. you have practically infinite money now
Step 3 get my mod
i'm gonna be looking trough the #1209506514763522108 channel more later so i might
hey idk if here is the best place to say this but why when i install some mods most of my game turns to english?
like the ENTIRE game?
most of it the only exception is like some popups
because some of it i can get since not all mods are fully translated
there are people who play in other languages than english?
and cryptid is in portuguese
cryptid makes you use different profiles so maybe its somehow linked to that, but i always thought settings were stored across profiles
my modlist (also the mod tab is in portuguese)
well the game is still set to portuguese so it might just be that something is breaking translations
is ^1.1 chips if chips is below 150 fine for a common
just worried about having echips on a common but 149^1.1 is only ~246
or its just mods not being translated
i need to shill my mod
i don't really see anyone getting such a low chip count after earlygame
damn
i didn't want it to become some absurd lategame joker despite using an exponential
I mean 1.1 emult doesn't seem too unbalanced unless you have like tens of thousands or more chips

just make it happen in initial_scoring_step so it just goes off the base chips
morefluff does the same thing to balance eechips on a rare
oh
me when I have five flush level 200
oh
my mod is also meant to be closer to vanilla in terms of balancing with echips being mostly reserved for legendary+ jokers
i just want to have an echips common so people know it exists
also emult is literally only used on one joker in the mod currently and i plan to keep it that way
Yo, does anyone know what these patterns are called? I can't find anything...
8x profit, nice
currently at almost 1k monies and got some really good joker comboes i can get from common ones
sadly not at best possible synergy but it's good
@tidal terrace a lot of time passed, did you started do smth? Not even any reaction on my code
chat
I was gonna do it tomorrow
Okay
I’m outside currently
chat
Lol
S
Hey pearto
How's the grass
I’m thinking of some löve stuff at the moment
Very green
Nice nice
just got a dragon tag and proceeded to get THE WORST legendary ever
like i'd rather get a jimbo
10
I think i can make a library for drawing shaders and ui elements using love2d instead of balatro’s native ui but i’ll have to look into it and see if it’s even worth
of nil
In most cases I think dont
I’ll do it just out of curiosity
If you want real challenge
just got a 3 dollar emerald 🔥
Try to make scrollbar
Content of course
What content lol
There’s nothing to scroll
Do you mean changing 1/2 pages to 1 page with scroll bar
ooo we share a braincell i think!
smth like this
hi jimbo
Oh cool
hello everyone
Here's a catch
crazy
If you figure out how to fix this - scrollbar officially done
Here's a repo, enjoy https://github.com/SleepyG11/BalatroScrollbar
I’m taking the challenge
My to do list is big now
Woops
-music manager
-scrollbar
-love2d stuff
-handy ui redesign
you better finish them rather then collect
does anyone else sometimes feel like modded jokers are rare
no
I need this mod
And 4 unfinished drawings
Hatoving I will give you my soul for your mod

calm down chief the mod ain't that crazy 😭
I will give S soul too
also i know i've been saying my mod but it's mostly my work and my friend's work, since a lot of the jokers came from them 'stead of me :P
'ello, looks awesoem
Good afternoon Modding Chat Legion.
Still peak
i'll let you guys be the judge of that
what if the joker was pink and yellow
i smell deltarune reference
no it's not deltarune actually
no
what if i made a blind about that guy...
What if we made a blind that debuffs
no way
🤯
i'm tempted to do something like paya's instead where he gets an entirely different effect
what if we made a blind that
what if there was a blind that made all your chips cards give mult and all your mult cards give chips
What if blind
what if there was a blind that blacked out the entire screen
invisible text 🔥
the opposite actually
what if there was a blind that made you calculate for 5 hours straight
this wouldn't do much to hurt chicot outside of endless
since all the blinds that chicot couldn't disable instantly would be in endless
😭
Guys Am I cook if I am currently working on my mod during an advance coding class ?
that blind isnt even fun to work around its just boring
mostly bc it doesnt even have a work around you just have to sit there for 5 hours
but what if you could abort
wait hold on that might be pretty cool
i dont even know if abort works all the time bc im not a talisman user
like imagine a blind that needed you to select cards that would equal a number when all combined
even better idea
mfw 20000 retriggers
you have to wait 5 hours to beat it but the wait time increases by the amount on the card you play (in minutues)
ngl i could probably just leave chicot entirely untouched just because my mod has other mechanics that'd mean chicot couldn't just be slapped onto your cryptid run to win
ew value manip
still no way to boost it though
cryptid be like
aikoshen i'm pretty sure
time for another 50000000000000 rerolls
how do you people enjoy this
me mentioned
hi
hi paya
do you want me to ask you how you don't
people have different tastes
not that hard to understand
@solar sandal why did you just invite me to a random pokemon server for no reason
wait localthunk changed pfp
misclick probably
balatro update confirmed?
i like that a lot
this will be fun to use
its probably somewhat likely that the new pfp is a joker from the update
i assume
i dont think it is unless thunk is making a joker based off of that image
Btw, this is named "Sticky Joker"
ewwww who did this to my joker
my fault
aw hell nah
that joker has NOT been living the jimbo life
Ew
man who the flip jizzed on the default joker
just reset an extremely good run because i was getting bored of reroll hell
Good
play balance branch to not get reroll hell 👍
play more balanced mods 👍
play my mod.
also play my mod
The slime should be green
I'm playing a semi-balanced deck combo
mroew
what if the joker was green
for the love of god colour the slime
what if I meowed
this will be grab bag in 2027
mrrorwrowrr
i was gonna say something but i realize i'm making "dirty joker" right now so... well played
qhar
mucho texto
i can’t talk shit anymore some of grab’s hex cards have multibox AND 2 tooltips
idk how i feel about multibox
i don’t like multibox much either but in my case it made the consumables way more readable
adds up
what’s next for grab? XChips? EMULT?
it is good for multiple effects like that lmao
EChips........I dare you..............
:3
minusmult
when are we getting FFMult and FFChips
don't mind shart
well aint that something
ask Square Enix abt that
UTTER WOKE NONSENSE.
No I don’t I’m sick
Me when I use shard to retrigger crystal to retrigger Astro
2X mult and X0.8 chips
YOU TOLD ME TO PUT IT FROM RARE TO UNCOMMON
It’s okay Astro you’re smarter than me
hello
FINALY IM NOT BLOCKED
im blocked in #🕹・game-discussion for some reason 😭
anyways my balatro wont load :C
anyone know how to help?
i wanna play :C
I CAN TYPE THER NOW 😄
are you playing vanilla or modded?
what platform?
are you getting an error message?
just saying "balatro isn't loading" gives us absolutely nothing to help you
the shattered grab bag crossmod 
kidding
i need to draw shattered jokers for maximus actually
pc
just paste it and send as file
oh that looks more like your steamodded install is incomplete
have you removed any files from the download?
reinstall smods
okie
:3
Black Hole (dark gray text) = cryptid-madness/almanac
Neutron Star (blue text) = aikoshen-absurd/cryptid-mainline
White Dwarf (white text) = aikoshen-adequate/cryptid-modest
also White Dwarf is the only usable gameset if Talisman isn't installed
(meaning nothing above multiplication)
how do I make a github for my mod
Simple but fun 
me looking at the violet vessel after converting all my jokers into the negative delayed gratification I forgot about
Can you select the joker or is it random?
It is Random, I should probably word that a lil' better 
is this not a better anhk
with ankh you at least get minimal control selling all other jokers
name 1 situation where you can sell all your jokers and survive past like ante 3
reading comprehension challenge
level impossible
thats not past ante 3
if you have a good joker to dupe and have some decent jokers lined up in the shop you can pull a mid-game anhk
yeah unless you have some eternal jokers in hand or are ante 1/2 Ankh is not all that useful
youre before ante 3
Btw.: This is what I mean with "keep their old modifiers" 
cool
Its like some type of shrine of order
-# It's time to commence some gambling~ 
so guys i just got balatro but i want to mod it
i want cryptid
but idk how to install it
Order is in the air? Wrong! 20 harpoons
hi chat
love4d when
i just found joker forge and decided to make a joker that just straight up crashes your PC
How
^1.7976931348623157e308 chips and mult 400 times
😭
Idk if that would crash your pc
Balatro probably
But not pc
grasses are green
skies are blue
love is 3d
and so are you
might
i could also make it repeat 1000 times
at the highest possible cap of jokerforge and done 400 times
🙏
New essmods update is kreizi
Yeah that's all i have to say
I mean doing the same operation more times or with a bigger number doesnt make it that much more intensive
Still quite a lot
Idk if jokerforge supports hypermult yet but that could be your chance
especially if i were to combine it with like astronomica or whatever that cryptid addon is called
What's hypermult
Sadly it only supports +,x, and ^
Talisman feature that allows giving a score return with custom operator
So they dont have to add a score return for every hyperoperation
oh right i forgot to say it's also per card scored
Hyperoperations™
- Succession: a + 1
- Addition: a + b = a + 1 + 1 + ... (b successions)
- Multiplication: a X b = a + a + a + ... (b additions)
- Exponentiation: a ^ b = a X a X a X ... (b multiplications)
- Tetration: a ^^ b = a ^ a ^ a ^... (b exponentiations)
ex. 3^^4 = 3^3^3^3^3 (big) - Pentation: a ^^^ b = a ^^ a ^^ a ^^... (b tetrations)
etc. - More: Hexation, Heptation, Octation, Enneation, Decation, Undecation, Doedecation, Tredecation...
Succession -> [0]
Addition -> [1]
Multiplication -> [2]
Exponentiation -> [3]
...
Curly Brackets
a{1}b = a ^ b (1 arrow -> {1}, tetration would be {2})
{x} = [x+2]
You could get 1000 ^mults in one base cryptid calculation if you wanted to
Yeah true
Just make a billion jokers
all ik is tetration, pentation, and so forth (i wanted to make it octation icl)
but it sadly doesn't let me do 1e#6e300
That's not how hyper e notation works
I mean even then talisman omeganum optimization completely removes the performance issue at high operations afaik
Hyper-E notation™
Scientific Notation
Big numbers can have "e" which is from scientific notation
aeb = a X 10^b
So basically, whatever is to the left of e is multiplied by 10 to the power of b, or gains b zeroes
ex. 1e5 = 100000 (5 zeroes)
Stacking es
Suppose you have 1e100
100 is actually 1e2 so 1e100 can be written as 1e1e2
For readability, if the number to the left of e is 1, it can be omitted (so 1e1e2 becomes ee2)
Hashtags
suppose you have eeeeee7
That's 6 e's
You can write that as e7#6
ea#b = eeee...ea (b e's before a)
More hashtags
Don't know how to explain this so have examples
e7#5#2 = e7#(e7#5)(7 with e7#5 es before it)
e7#5#3 = e7#(e7#(e7#5))
e7##2 = e7#7
e7##3 = e7#7#7
e7##4 = e7#7#7#7
e7###2 = e7##7
etc.
it's capped at ~1.7e308 anyways
so it doesn't matter
yeah i know, the correct form would be 10 → 1e300 → 6 i think
Anyways mayhem in like 10 days at most i need to change some stuff and then change some stuff because steamodded
b2 is insane
or speculo + brainstorms
Sir that's chained arrow notation
do you not consider it a correct notation
prob no lyre content/lyre up at ungodly hour bc i feel sick
on the good side Barracuda is stuck in my head
e7########5 + 1
make it 1 thousand brainstorms
Its correct but what you did is equivalent to 10{6}1e300
and make the speculo pinned leftmost
No it's just that ui tie replying with chained arrow notation to me saying that your hyper e notation is bad
You get absolutely annihilated if you reroll 25 times each shop for 5 shops consecutively
sneak peek
Numberslop mfs when i show them infinity####...(xinfinity)...####infinity
You get absolutely annihilated if you earn $10000
Misprinty.... awesome
i dont even want to know what this means
You get absolute annihilated when you get any fusion joker after a few rounds
You get absolutely annihilated after like 80 rounds if you don't have any fusion jokers
exotic joker
Yotta cards are no longer slop on mayhem mode
Edition cards are actually slightly balanced
A mere like 35 planets
i have an idea for a very balanced common joker
Only commons though
it costs 1 dollar
it's a common..
always revives you on death
^10(9)e300 mult and chips
hyperfactorial everything
score formula is chips ^^ mult instead of chips x mult
ok im the certified factorial defender but hyperfactorialing everything is a bit much
i have an idea for an unbalanced but atleast semi fair deck
Actually i think most of the new stuff in b2 is just mayhem mode is far less sloppy also the game hates you now
you can manipulate probability but EVERYTHING is supernerfed
like 50sqrt chips, mult, and score
money divided by 5
no like
actually hellish debuffs on all stats
but you can completely manipulate odds
numberrot is peak
I still have some regrets with mayhem because i feel like i completely missed the mark when it comes to advertising
I obviously pushed it as a "haha break everything mod" at first, that's cemented into everyone's brains and now what are they supposed to think when i tell them "oh look mayhem mode is actually kind of balanced now"
Eternum is currently just mayhem mode but with bigger numbers on some jokers
this is so ass imo
this means you really only use items probabilty based and even then they'll be so useless ante 2 will be a campfire story
...sounds just like one hook.
That's like literally it
no like ACTUALLY everything
Sir
so for example you could get a gateway on your first arcana pack
We live in 2025
Steamodded can do anything for you nowadays
Steamodded helped me win the kids back from my wife
Steammod helped me not marry in the first place
Also, XMult being half as effective would mean X1.5 becomes X0.75.
Hey look at this very cool deck
+2 discards
You die instantly
Have fun!
yeah but all the jokers are so ass at that point you just make all the tags the +2 hands and discards and brute force your way through the game in the most unfun way possible
this is the new blue stake
Red deck 2
My dad works at balatro he said this is true
hm, yeah.
You're talking to someone that said "i play modded balatro just so i can watch the numbers get big"
...well, not "any", but close enough. 😂
If only there was some predefined way of increasing the difficulty of your run....
Some circles maybe..........
yes but balancing numberslop with unfun gameplay and near impossible 100%s is not game design, its fixing a broken bridge with glitter glue.
Great mayhem has 26 of them
No my point is that i don't think they know what they're doing when it comes to balancing
Also look i did stuff
Just realised upside down blank spectral is not actually upside down
looks sick
H
MMM
Mhis Moker murders mou mafter mhree mounds mif mou mont mupgrade mit
"what the actual muck"
Also guys i want to add a legendary unseenexplosion self insert but i have no idea what it would actually do because im not very into his community
As the creator of mayhem i can confirm that no.
maw man :(
Very useful
meows
Very useful
with my mod this would very likely kill you actually because your build can't just make number go up
i'm tempted to add a completely unobtainable joker that just always prevents death though purely to say my mod has the best joker
Very balanced
Is there any mod to remove score cap that isn't talisman
i tried using talisman but when i get a reserved parking + mime it takes like 10 seconds per hand to calculate
these 10 second calculations do not happen when i don't have talisman and simply use saturn mod to skip animations
Creates EVERY joker after 15 hands played
(secretly destroys itself on the 14th hand no matter WHAT, cannot be forcetriggered)
Don't use Saturn also no
saturn doesn't take 10 seconds to calculate my hand why would i not use saturn
Very useful
I should clarify that i want it to be actually useful
Don't use Saturn regardless
Better mods exist
this would unironically be very funny
like which
One second
Handy
my mod isn't even a mega big number mod
it's like slightly above vanilla power but i'm trying to design it so your runs will still eventually die
what about for skipping animations
Handy
overflow takes consumable stacking and does it better,
handy has awesome ass shortcuts
hell yorick can stack JOKERS
Thats really wierd, it shouldnt do that. My best guess is just slow cpu
Try downloading the omeganum optimization branch maybe? Not sure if thatll help though
i mean like 1 mime + parking with 17 copy jokers
That makes more sense
tsame
That just happens with a lot of retriggers
talisman takes 10 seconds and saturn takes 1 seconds
goated voucher
Because talisman does funny number stuff
Chat would a mod that highlights card area changes like powotrox be cool
yeah is there a mod that removes the score limit without interfering with the games animations
Wdym
yeah once i had to have it calculate overnight
because talisman removes score caps by making them take 10 seconds
It removes score caps by changing to a different number system, so its a bit more intensive. Theres no other way to actually change the scoring limit
i want a mod that can remove score cap but can be compatible with a removing animation mod so that it doesn't take 10 seconds per hand
oh
But talisman has removing animations
yeah it removes animations but the hands still take long time
Can't believe you disabled the most infamous balatro boss blind the window
it instantly wins the blind if the blind is The Plant
and ONLY the plant
otherwise its useless
Retconslop is real
Yeah you cant just make the game not calculate. My best advice in these kinda of situations is just tone down the amount of jokers/retriggers but you already dont have many
Also the abort button exists
You could make the scoring limit bignum instead of omeganum
writh wrath
because it rhymes with riff raff and has a similar ability
i like it
whats the difference
Because bignum calcs might be faster
I don't really think so
Bignum has a lower limit but does less fucky numbers shit
Especially not on omeganum optimization oh wait bignum doesn't even exist there
Hey buddy i was literally visibly shaking when i posted mayhem here the first time, just do it blindly and forget about it, worked for me
Stimulating your brain afterwards recommended
Do not ask me why I was visibly shaking when i released my balatro mod.
bignum shot dead in the opmization branch
i dont have a github in general
Good riddance
i am ahead of the curve
Egg probably
Hes the pinning guy i think
Also you can just not pin it
Threads on desktop allow you to jump to the post message
Just put your links there
u
It's one button
As opposed to 2 for pins i think
crashing modded balatro lowk easy
Also I'll go ahead and say this now if anyone wants me to name their mod then why but also i will do it
I think at least 1 person can agree that im good at naming balatro mods
please agree with me.
That's mostly because i didn't make it
Should add that best results are usually if it's my mod
i agree with you
Thanks you are wrong
Just nerf it then ess em eich
Actually i have an idea
One day people will know about Handy's animation skip, but not today
Booster Packs and Cards in shop are 10% cheaper
-$5 when Boss Blind is defeated, then increase percentage by 5 and lost dollars by 3
Maow
Don't increase lost dollars then
That is horrifically overpowered if the numbers are considered in base 10 afterwards
is the computer the same as the Moroccan internet one
Also how would that work with bignum
Or like e numbers
That's not what they meant when they said thematically accurate
Also does anyone want Mayhem Mega OST™ for no reason
It's the Mayhem® OST™ but Mega©
really, man?
Like professional silkposter enumbers?
This is still the best mayhem joker every it is disallowed to disagree with that not my art by the way
Astro do you like my idea?
Shoudve had none unlocked....
When i go to the store, i like to buy cheese! What do you like to buy from the store? 😄
wh
?
Does not know about danny h
Instant block
wide
Yeah pretty much
welp, that sucks
You should use the enter key I've heard it does some wild stuff
It can break your text into multiple... rows????
I think it's quicker to throw garbage ideas directly at mayhem which is what I've been doing for the past 8 months
didn't use reroll voucher award
Yep
i feel like the wideness should be enogh clue that it's wip lol
Squares probably
not my fault i didn't know talisman doesn't account for negative numbers
how is this jokerforge
Winner gets a vacation in Castle
do y'all fw incremental games
You're making it too easy for us
its terribly formatted because i forgot to close the colour tag, i couldnt be asked to wrap the lines right now, and the polychrome text is a loc_var which i havent put through a capitalise thing yet
it says nanein-
No
Simply not
There is no way you're reaching that
ever
doesnt go to another multi
😭
lemme be happy
The limit is e10#1000 on regular Talisman i think

Hashtags
suppose you have eeeeee7
That's 6 e's
You can write that as e7#6
ea#b = eeee...ea (b e's before a)
More hashtags
Don't know how to explain this so have examples
e7#5#2 = e7#(e7#5) (7 with e7#5 es before it)
e7#5#3 = e7#(e7#(e7#5))
e7##2 = e7#7
e7##3 = e7#7#7
e7##4 = e7#7#7#7
e7###2 = e7##7
etc.

I have created these guides because i am sick of people asking what the symbols mean and I'm sure everyone else is as well
And I thank you for that
I was just trying to make a terraria joke
Because I love terraria
I don't think there's anything to bolden up also no files because clipboard

does anyone want to playtest my jokerforge slop mod
Forgeslop this, forgeslop that, how about you go out and forge yourself some bitches
🤯 🗣️
does anyone want to get injected with poison
its actually a good mod
in all humbleness
It doesn’t
is it
I hate colors
show me what you believe to be your best card
get talisman 
the art is really bad
peam
pro-tip if you think your mod is well designed maybe dont call it forgeslop
ok but slop makes people get hooked
i genuinely think there is nobody who willingly wants to play a mod that advertises it as forgeslop other than for ironic purposes
their like "ohh this is going to be so bad"
"i should play it to make fun of it"
and then they'll be like "holy shit this isn't slop"
you don't have to reverse psychology people into playing your mod if its just good from the start
ok well does anyone want to playtest it
sure
i usually dont play others mods but i'm burnt out of vallkarri right now so, nothing better to do
wait actually dont play that
there is a new update
ill post it in a sec
actually no i already posted it mb
first criticism: this is badly zipped
Where mime go :(
i dont control the zip
its jokerforge
i unwided it
oh that's so shit
whenever you download a mod off github its always 'extract here' to get the mod folder
why wouldnt he make it
align with that
You just want the swimsuit 
Okay i’ll do mime after this one is finished
anyways chat is this a good effect
also is it clear enough that its a repeatable effect
my mod has like one OP Joker and it's 1. the hardest one to get in the mod and 2. has a very conditional effect
I just like your drawings S
Gonna spit out a Pokedex entry of Chartreuse's species, Misgoose.
Geez
since you need to specifically play Polychrome Lucky Aces
@woven orchid debug plus is recommended
the rest is fairly well balanced I'd say
Misgoose the Hacker Goose Pokémon
"Being the more stable descendant of a certain glitchy entity, this Pokémon is capable of hacking, modifying its type to get the upper hand, which is one of its methods."
because a lot of the jokers dont show up a lot
but yeah a lot of ppl see Jokerforge and immediately shit on a mod
even if it is actually well designed
which is why I'm not posting my mod here
lol
Tbf the reputation of mods made from JokerForge are not exactly well designed
its like scratch
yeah
i started programming on scratch
if you use jokerforge as anything more than a stepping stone for learning lua in the future, you're using it wrong i believe
but now im using other languagess
i used to program in scratch too, but after 2 years i realized it was just slowing me down
yes thats why i stopped
I know a bit of lua, enough to do some relatively basic Balatro modding
You should not be making full release mods with JokerForge, please just use it to learn 😭
i would also like to remind you all
i was a bumbling idiot in lua when i started making my mod
but I honestly do not want the headache of constantly bugfixing shit right now, hence why I'm currently sticking with Jokerforge
you can be shit as long as you learn as you go
I mean, one of my first Lua experiences was taking 6 hours trying to bugfix something
only to find out it was an unreported smods bug causing the problem
this is kinda with any project
i used to develop plugins for SCP:SL, i had minimal knowledge of c# going in, and now it's my favourite language to use for free-time project
how come? its a great way to practice releasing mods in the future, and personally jokerforge isn't all that limiting. in a few monthes like every vanilla feature will probably be closed to finished
because you aren't learning anything past a certain point
it's harder to make something that stands out
do i have to learn anything? im just doing it to have fun lol
generally you'll be limited, even if you don't notice it
balatro modding isnt my career
It ain’t mine either
TRUTH 👏🏻
ROARING 👏🏻
THANK YOU
YOU GET IT
its like playing a video game, almost
im not trying to learn anything when im playing balatro
modding a game doesn't HAVE to be a massive learning project
this is kind of funny to me because i have the complete fucking opposite mindset
i love learning
give me information
me too, but honestly lua is boring to me and i dont care that much to learn it
hi chat
real
Imagine this: You’re a mod dev who spent months on a mod, pouring your heart and soul into it, only to get overshadowed by some jokerforge mod made in a week that doesn’t do anything revolutionary
such is life
that sucks too but like
yeah such is life
that's completely out of everyone's control
Bruh
if i uninstall balatro on steam and install it again, will i keep all my progress when installed again?
doesnt have to be
it's not someone's fault that their mod got popular
I think so?
do gaming fun facts count
you can't FORCE someone to only play a certain mod
even if it is higher effort
who is "Lomunidad" in this scenario tho
i mean i think effort shouldnt equate to placement
however jokerforge is just objectively lower effort & limited
if your jokerforge mod does something cool and my non-jokerforge mod doesn't, cool, you deserve the plays
but i cant give a damn if its limited
in fact, that makes it more fun for me
REAL
joe bruh
I'm even planning on making a Lua mod eventually that adds on ideas that aren't possible via Jokerforge itself
and having them separate means that I can keep using Jokerforge for shit that Jokerforge can do
and code in the shit that Jokerforge can't do myself
should i stop keeping a physical journal and start keeping a digital one because a digital one is less limiting?
exactly
in my opinion, that takes away the joy of journaling
me trying to draw in a digital journal but then realizing that i cannot because i can only type
obviously you can just use a different program but like that is not a good comparison i think
your right
thats all i could think of lol
but like my point still stands
the joy I get from balatro modding is getting my silly ideas in a silly mod
bugfixing for 6 fucking hours because of an issue that's outside of my control is NOT the joy I get from modding (making jokers spawn with editions was bugged in the latest release of smods at the time that I was working on my first mod (which is now scrapped))
i think using jokerforge is great personally but i also think if your mod is not really strong art-wise then im not really interested in forge mods because i know they wont do anything interesting by their nature
im not trying to make the next polterworx
again, if that doesn't personally interest you, then more power to you
good nobody should make the next polterworx
another bad example lol
but actively shaming people for using Jokerforge makes you a Gigantic Fucking Asshole™
but like im not trying make anything revolutionary
I guess bro
meowwww
mrow
i LOVE cryptid
You supremely overestimate how long it takes to bugfix
i got banned from the cryptid server (and then unbanned hooray) for saying cryptid sucks
so uhh yeah!
what would you do if cryptid died right now
i don't think mods need to be revolutionary to be interesting, i just think joker forge is that limited that the most a mod can do is make me giggle when i read the description on a wiki
anyway, you should use jokerforge it's pretty cool
its a hyperbole lol to excersize a point
no it did actually take me 6 hours
until we realized that
yeah no
i dont really think its that limited. remember jokerforge is still in it's early phase, and more features are being added daily
it was just an smods problem
what were you trying to debug
(keep in mind that smods was in a MUUCH earlier beta state at the time, this was like 6 months ago)
I had code set up that a Joker would be force-spawned with a specific edition, but it just
wasn't working
ah
turns out! the latest release of smods at the time broke that function
so it just
didn't work
that was 6 hours of my life I'm never gonna get back </3
unrelated but salmon run rare wildcard rotation in 30 min
get in the mindset of always blaming smods
my fuckign nintendo online expired
if *nothing * else, I at least think people are absolutely gonna use the shader editor once that releases
😭
because FUCK opengl
amen
-# or opencl I forgor which one Balatro uses
i used to think that and then i realized glsl is not that bad
i might use the edition editor but only to [Hyperlink Blocked] around with it because i don't actually care that much about adding new editions
Genuinely how
Guys how do i download mods on mobile balatro
rule 4
please read the rules
^ @exotic belfry
we were trying to debug it for 6 hours
they are probably 8 years old look at their bio
and there was like 4-5 of us trying to figure out what the fuck was wrong lol
real
read #📜・modding-rules
If you’re debugging something for that long without pulling the “Smods’ fault” card idk what to tell ya 😭
balatrue...
Where the hell am supposed to find mobile nodding guides then
you aren't
You don’t
you dont
its illegal
i think
yeah
dont mod mobile simple as that
