[ember flicker]

have u seen ur card idk if u did i slept in the mean time

[woven orchid]

i saw it when i woke up it was really funny actually

i did not expect the cardpronouns crossmod

[ember flicker]

crossmod with ur mod

yess

idk if its possible to specify the pronoun group itself and not just the type

i wouldve cycled that

[woven orchid]

honestlyt not sure

[ember flicker]

because neutral is op

[woven orchid]

its been so long since ive thought of cardprns

[woven orchid]

fucking genius

[ember flicker]

holy fuck

[plush hound]

its like 2 AM rn

[woven orchid]

she's onto something we never thought of

[ember flicker]

gain xtrue mult

would that not just give 1

actually

[plush hound]

i think yeah 😭

im using that as a joker

[ember flicker]

xtrue joker

[wanton rapids]

true...

[ember flicker]

uhhhh the fuck should i eat with rice

uhhhhhh

little meatball

[wanton rapids]

WOW phanta has a lot of jokers

[ember flicker]

i wanna do a card picking joker

[plush hound]

how many

[lavish pike]

At least this many

[plush hound]

im making tangents to have as many jokers as them now

[lavish pike]

😭

[prisma latch]

i need to add card pronouns compat to my mod just so that when i add the mandatory self insert legendary i dont get msigendered by it lol

[lavish pike]

I dont think my mod can really have misgendering

[wanton rapids]

i think i have this for morefluff idr

[plush hound]

i dont care what cardpronouns refers to me as, i could be a king and queen at the same time

[lavish pike]

It dosent have people

[plush hound]

or a monarch if its they/them or it/its

[prisma latch]

also im making all the hrt horses girls you cant stop me

[fickle elbow]

~205

[plush hound]

how many in aij

[lavish pike]

at least 2

[fickle elbow]

300 atm

[lavish pike]

yeah...

it is a lot

[fickle elbow]

Thats not even all the art

[lavish pike]

I know

[prisma latch]

jfc

[stable juniper]

goals ✨

[lavish pike]

yeah...

I wanna just get to the point of having the content of a medium sized mod

not aij large

[ember flicker]

i have 12 jokers

[lavish pike]

I have less

[wanton rapids]

its kind of janky rn but

[ember flicker]

only count 6 as 2

[wanton rapids]

ill

try and fix it

[lavish pike]

but I have this:

[ember flicker]

pure cards?

[lavish pike]

nope

[stable juniper]

WOAH OMGOMGOMGOMG YAY

[lavish pike]

negative ranks

[ember flicker]

so the card rank is S_-x

[lavish pike]

wait I have more

I have an old version of my own mod

[wanton rapids]

it seems like its double counting the transform somehow or something

[prisma latch]

timmy turner my name is

[lavish pike]

There

[ember flicker]

what are the cards initials?

[lavish pike]

this is the current spritesheet

[lavish pike]

huh?

[ember flicker]

u know how ace of spades A_S or something

[lavish pike]

ooooh

yeah you have deg_21 for example

-2

-11

all sorts

[ember flicker]

so u can have -21 of spades?

by putting -21_S

?

because if it does i guess myco works

[lavish pike]

well

wait no

no

you cant

-21 doesnt exist

My mod is based off of a game

[ember flicker]

so its a custom variable?

[lavish pike]

and that game has no such thing as -21

[lavish pike]

I dunno

[ember flicker]

i mistyped 12 for Q

[main path]

Lets go i managed to add another playing card gimmick

[lavish pike]

Im not the person for coding

[ember flicker]

i mean Q

[lavish pike]

Im not great at it

[ember flicker]

so 12

not 21

[fervent vessel]

its D_deg_-4 or D_deg_21

[ember flicker]

do u think it would be recognized by my card

[fervent vessel]

whats your card?

[ember flicker]

since it coinflips between 2 selected card suits

[fervent vessel]

ooh

[ember flicker]

take a pair and create a merged card, coin flip the suit, enh, ed ,seal

[fervent vessel]

well i mean these are just ranks so they still have suits attached to it

so should do

[ember flicker]

yeah but create card still requires the initials

afaik

i kinda forgot i've made like 2 jokers since

[formal orchid]

oh shit

[lavish pike]

seems bout right

[ember flicker]

i think i'm gonna make goobert newt

next

[exotic belfry]

??????????????????????????

[woven crag]

??????????????????????????????????????

[ember flicker]

should i do goobert

[main path]

?????????????????????????

[lavish pike]

sorry?

[atomic dragon]

😭

[atomic dragon]

[ember flicker]

"my fault og"

[lavish pike]

dunno bout you, but making words close to racial slurs arent normally great

[atomic dragon]

i did

[lavish pike]

that happened

[lavish pike]

my appolgies origonal gangster

[ember flicker]

well it is "white [racial slur]"

[lavish pike]

does that make it excuseable now?

[ember flicker]

no

[balmy lily]

JIMBO WHAT

[atomic dragon]

niec reference

[atomic dragon]

nice

[ember flicker]

because its not "close to a racial slur"

it is

lol

[atomic dragon]

i swear i said it by a mistake

[atomic dragon]

sorry guys

[balmy lily]

oh right.

[atomic dragon]

is this the end of my life in this sever?

[balmy lily]

a server im in turned the fequently used into a minefield

[atomic dragon]

thats my face rn in irl

[lavish pike]

?

[ember flicker]

u could shut up about it and act like no one saw it

[balmy lily]

one misclic k and thats gonna send the F slur straight to this chat and probably gonna get me banned

[atomic dragon]

true and i will do

[ember flicker]

im sure no one took a screenshot :trollface:

[lavish pike]

and then I ping mods

/j

[lavish pike]

you have interesting humor

[atomic dragon]

i dont

[lavish pike]

sarcasm

[atomic dragon]

what?

[stable juniper]

good luck modding general

i believe in you

[atomic dragon]

you play webfishing to

i forgot that game even exist

small flex

[lavish pike]

yeah well I believe in you

[lavish pike]

more of a #⚙・modding-off-topic convo

[wanton rapids]

i made it slightly better but it still tilts and is buggy

[wanton rapids]

and this is like 10x worse perf wise

[lavish pike]

#⚙・modding-general is for...
modding purposes

😨

[atomic dragon]

true

[normal hollow]

modding general is to talk about balatro goes kino

[lavish pike]

true

[atomic dragon]

anyways ama go to sleep

[full edge]

The tilt's kinda sick tho

[ornate bone]

tfw no star trek mod.
Why live?

[atomic dragon]

bye bye

[stable juniper]

if you can't fix the tilt, i think this'd be good enough to put into Phanta anyway ^u^

[wanton rapids]

i mean i kind of like it

[normal hollow]

ive only watched star trek tos

[wanton rapids]

the way this game draws stuff is mildly messed up

[ember flicker]

wrong modding general is to ask basic questions about modding so that they get redirected to #⚙・modding-support and get redirected to one of the holy scriptures

and spam crash logs

[plush hound]

oh it works

[ember flicker]

u did ur funny

[wanton rapids]

why is the description not in chinese

[plush hound]

loc_txt

[ember flicker]

why orange

[distant badge]

localise it NOW

[normal hollow]

because the game language is not in chinese

[ornate bone]

mein krumpf Shot

[plush hound]

IM NOT LOCALIZING 153 JOKERS

😭

[normal hollow]

joyousspring is entirely localized in chinese do better

[formal orchid]

it says active tho

[distant badge]

DO IT

[ember flicker]

u should now since ur having a joker about the chinese la guage

[lavish pike]

lol

[balmy lily]

just use loc_vars and make it return the chinese edition of that joker if the game langauge IS in chinese

[formal orchid]

do it...

[plush hound]

wait

[wanton rapids]

i would ping ruby and say commit to the bit but shes not here

[plush hound]

right

loc_dump

hold on

[ember flicker]

dumping rn

[balmy lily]

thatway you only have to localize THAT joker

[ember flicker]

jokerforge style

[normal hollow]

someone was crazy enough to do all 400 jokers

[ember flicker]

i think its the touhou guy

[wanton rapids]

the main issue is that the stack isnt exactly tied to the joker for some reason

[plush hound]

okay so

i activated loc_dump

where does it go

[normal hollow]

it seems they are only active in the joyousspring and all in jest threads so idk

[ember flicker]

is the length based on a config.extra var

[normal hollow]

you deactivated all other mods right

[wanton rapids]

no its just always off screen

[plush hound]

shit

can i redo it

[normal hollow]

i dont remember where it dumps it

[normal hollow]

probably

you might need to delete what it created

[plush hound]

i just need to know where it dumps it

[normal hollow]

it's probably the mods folder or the one above

[ember flicker]

have u checked the .toilet folder

[plush hound]

thanks feliz

[ember flicker]

navidad

[plush hound]

a name wouldbve been nice

[normal hollow]

name for what

[ember flicker]

.dumpster

[candid rain]

what does a cat tag do in cryptid mod

[normal hollow]

meow

[umbral pilot]

happuy

[limpid lake]

iirc it's in your mod's localization/dump.lua

or .txt maybe
it's been a while

[plush hound]

myst

no sorry

minty

you're a goat fr

[plush hound]

nvm its not there

fuck me

[umbral pilot]

minty is the goat

[normal hollow]

lol

[wanton rapids]

quite strong probably

[plush hound]

is this the right line

or am i actually rewarded

[stable juniper]

glad to hear :D i wasn't sure how strong this was

[normal hollow]

dump_loc

[limpid lake]

i think the formatting was a bit weird

[plush hound]

IM REWARDED

🥳 🥳

brb

[normal hollow]

just checked the docs btw

you could have done that

[plush hound]

i gotta disable all mods first

[plush hound]

WHERE DOES IT SAY THAT 😭😭

[wanton rapids]

i mean all the seals are good really, so a mega standard pack becomes crazy value

[normal hollow]

https://github.com/Steamodded/smods/wiki/Mod-Metadata

[plush hound]

akjhdguhbjkjnljiadousiyhkbjacjxio

does debugplus matter

should i also disable that

[normal hollow]

no

[plush hound]

i thought so

[granite forum]

没人[?]冰淇淋

[normal hollow]

i had to disable everything to make smodsless jokerdisplay

how do people play without galdur

[granite forum]

idk

[plush hound]

should be good

dumping time

[wanton rapids]

@stable juniper put this anywhere in your mod, also change the hat extension sprite to a 17x17 centered square

SMODS.DrawStep {
    key = "doug_hat",
    order = -9, -- center is -10
    func = function(self)
    if not self:should_draw_base_shader() then return nil end
    if not (self.config.center.discovered or self.bypass_discovery_center) then return nil end
    if self.config.center.key ~= "j_phanta_dougdimmadome" then return nil end
    if not G.hat_sprite then
      G.hat_sprite = Sprite(
        0, 0, 71, 95, G.ASSET_ATLAS["phanta_Phanta2"], {x = 11, y = 3}
      )
    end

    G.hat_sprite.role.draw_major = self
    for i = 0,25 do
      local hoff = -1 - i * 0.4
      G.hat_sprite:draw_shader('dissolve', nil, nil, nil, self.children.center, 0, 0, 0, hoff)
    end
    end,
    conditions = { vortex = false, facing = "front" },
}

[normal hollow]

that ui is so scuffed

[stable juniper]

thanks!!!! omg

[plush hound]

its windowed ui

[stable juniper]

did you fix the tilt?

[plush hound]

also Troubadour Mod fixed it

i think

[limpid lake]

probably should add this info to the localization page too, tbh

[wanton rapids]

no sorry

someone smarter could probably figure it out though

[stable juniper]

that's okay ^u^

it's still wild that this works

[wanton rapids]

i mean you can do basically anything

[plush hound]

can i use this already?

or do i need to unwrap them all

[normal hollow]

no that's fine

[woven orchid]

ts ["frying"] me

[normal hollow]

what are those btw it's weird they dont have prefixes

[plush hound]

Other

for tooltips

[normal hollow]

ah then it's fine

you should add prefixes tho

[plush hound]

so i rename dump.lua to en-us.lua

?

[normal hollow]

yes

[plush hound]

i should yeah

[normal hollow]

or default.lua

[plush hound]

whats the diff

[normal hollow]

practically none

[plush hound]

genius!

[stable juniper]

@wanton rapids would you like me to credit you for this?

[wanton rapids]

yeah sure

[plush hound]

anyways

[wanton rapids]

you dont have to

[plush hound]

i gotta eat

its 3 AM rn

[hard plank]

hi

[woven orchid]

oh man im so hungry let me eat my bed

[wanton rapids]

[hard plank]

100% unrelated to balatro

sorry to disappoint but this is literally for my homework

bye

[granite forum]

nxhoo tangents??

[plush hound]

yes!

[plush hound]

@storm forum speaking of, you have any ideas why animated atlas for mod icon is tiny, is there any fix?

[storm forum]

Most likely an SMODS-related bug when creating AnimatedSprites, as they are also shrunk when used in other UI. 🤷‍♂️

[novel jetty]

Hello balatro modding chat

haaaaaaiiiiiii

gotta live with it i suppose

Hi chat

[ember flicker]

nxkoo:

gain 1 mult per condition filled:

• Jimbo's Big Naturals installed
• Lusty Joker in game area (+1 mult per lusty joker)

i need more conditions

[distant badge]

+1 mult per freaky (entropy edition) card

[ember flicker]

freaky?

[limpid lake]

(cardpronouns) card with any feminine pronouns

[ember flicker]

true true

[balmy lily]

any lusty joker upgrades/fusions count towards nxkoo

[ember flicker]

i mean i already have a card pronouns crossmod

[limpid lake]

okay i don't actually know nxkoo's orientation that might have to be modified

[distant badge]

Freaky

[ember flicker]

freaky

[ember flicker]

wheres that in

cryptid?

[distant badge]

entropy

[balmy lily]

if you havw deviantsrt open in a browser tab it decreases mult by 1 instead and the description berrates you for "cheating"

[ember flicker]

ok

if you have certain words in a open url it just looks at you and says, "i know what you are"

[balmy lily]

that freak joker from tangents gives +5 mult

[limpid lake]

profile name contains (insert list here)

[balmy lily]

if profile name is nxkoo, the joker causes your run to end if sold or destroyed

(and also *insert nxkoo's favorite deck here* starts you off with nxkoo joker

[winged prism]

Oh wrong chat

[lavish pike]

lol

ah yes, this is what was missing in my painting

yep. this is the gateway build

[prisma latch]

sketching out roughly what i want the anagrarots to look like

[polar oyster]

[prisma latch]

red

loof and mr seeps will probably go mostly unchaned between draft and final art because i sspent too much time on them

[polar oyster]

I miss my civil chatters thing :(

[novel jetty]

What is good?

[lavish pike]

What was it for?

I remember having it too

[polar oyster]

it was old thing, now you can't have?

[distant badge]

i dont remember

[lavish pike]

Ik I can’t now

[plush hound]

no no you git it right

[lavish pike]

Get oriented by 90 degrees

I don’t even know if that is an actual use of that word

[long hare]

perfection.

:)))))

[ocean wadi]

damn, poopoofart mod keeps crashing

[long hare]

the what

[lavish pike]

What mod would that be?

[ocean wadi]

The poopoofart mod

[forest knoll]

shocked. stunned. bewildered, even

[long hare]

im banishing you to the 9 circles (gateways) of hell

[polar oyster]

[long hare]

so one of my econ jokers broke

[desert mirage]

that is one scary looking joker right there >:3

[eager shard]

looking for a more.. unbalanced balatro experience, any of you guys got suggestions : )

not cryptid ive played plenty of cryptid

[desert mirage]

most normal divine wildside setup

[main path]

Mayhem would be your best bet

[desert mirage]

what do you even do here

[prisma latch]

aikoshen morefluff payas terrible additions are all fun ones

[eager shard]

will give it a go :)

[lilac brook]

how much does loyalty card cost

[woven crag]

5 dolar

source: balatro wiki

[long hare]

what mod is this from

[granite forum]

modding chat bless me with ideas

[desert mirage]

Hatchet, but this is a work in progress

[granite forum]

still looking for developers

[balmy lily]

just say

"The deck becomes immutable in exchange for x3 Mult" or something like that

[spiral monolith]

i fucked up

[umbral pilot]

man what i would give to be on my boat fishin'

[granite forum]

#📜・modding-rules rule 4

[formal orchid]

https://discord.com/channels/1116389027176787968/1325147180280971294 can get pretty unbalanced
but like thunderedge said mayhem would be your best bet

[umbral pilot]

they're just playing on a steam deck

[granite forum]

ah

[umbral pilot]

:P

goober

[granite forum]

stinky me i thought it was xbox

[umbral pilot]

no way to mod consoles rn other than the -------

so almost certainly a steam deck or they're playing the game with a controller

[lavish pike]

If not you can plug a controller into your pc can’t you?

And play steam games with that

[plush hound]

is it just me or is it blurry

[spiral monolith]

appreciate the concern tho

[granite forum]

yeah mb

you can never be too careful

[woven crag]

🤔

[stable axle]

fair enough

[lavish pike]

Wow

[lavish pike]

Is that Canadian dollars though?

[granite forum]

this is probably an uninpressive cryptid screenshot

[lavish pike]

Probably

[wanton rapids]

no it's a very impressive balatro plus screenshot

[granite forum]

how are you sure

[lavish pike]

Balatro minus

[woven crag]

being in the same balatro plus game obv

[wanton rapids]

yeah we're in a battle Royale lobby

[woven crag]

balatro plus is real

[wanton rapids]

eris can you shoot down their builds

[woven crag]

okay

[wanton rapids]

thanks

[woven crag]

balatro plus players when theyre being attacked and cant build a 50 foot tall hotel with room service to defend themselves

[stable axle]

extremely impressive misprint deck 19 use 5.7x payload

actually

[woven crag]

payload try not to be like that challenge

(impossible)

[granite forum]

seems pretty unimpressive to me

[stable axle]

right after i did that i got this btw

fair enough

[prisma latch]

regretevator jumpscare

[balmy lily]

How

[eager shard]

i have a better question

my stupid chud balatro

what even is causing this. game crashes on launch

wait actually

[candid rain]

that's a lot of mods active at the same time

[eager shard]

its only 15

[candid rain]

find out which file engine/ui.lua:187 is a part of

[eager shard]

if i had to guess its Jenlib bc i dont even know how this got in there and i know for a fact that it hasnt been updated in like 2 years

[candid rain]

ok so try turning Jenlib off and see if it still crashes

[eager shard]

nvm thats part of mayhem

uhh

found it

was frost utils, weird

wonder why an optimization mod would cause that

[versed goblet]

how common is it for critical deck to give ^.5 in cryptid

[silent thistle]

I think it is like 1 in 4, or 1 in 8, or something like that..?

[woven crag]

You should update mayhem then

It doesnt need jenlib anymore

https://codeberg.org/BalatroMayhem/Mayhem/releases

[eager shard]

i just got the most recent version from the exact place you linked and its there but.. whatever

came with the mod, i didnt download jenlib myself

[plush hound]

aye?

[umbral pilot]

3 random jokers

[wanton rapids]

Average 2025 Roguelike mode

[plush hound]

rerollslop

[full edge]

I know we're reaching a critical backlash against the pick three roguelike but an engine deck builder like Balatro's only expression is through your build, so you need a lot of tools to be able to manipulate the odds in your favour

removing the shop and tags can be interesting, but it'd need an enormous overhaul of how powerful jokers are, or how they spawn

[plush hound]

not to mention it's basically consumable-less

unless you got like vagabond or cartomancer

[full edge]

I think the reroll-focused design is kind of inevitable in a game like Balatro. The other alternative is slowing down the game pace to go for something like Slay the Spire or Monster Train's structure, where the card pool is smaller to make finding a build naturally easier, and the more frequent encounters allow you to gather more resources

[prisma latch]

thinking about having the actual proper name for anagrarots be "Mystery Cards"
i feel like thats probably already a thing but it fits the vibe im going for so 🤷

[wanton rapids]

idk i don't know of any

[eager shard]

now just to find photograph 🤑

[wise moss]

Quick question, have lovely injector and steam modded in my balatro. but i still dont have a mods page, followed a video from 2025 that might be out of date, any fixes?

[granite forum]

mac?

[wise moss]

no

windows

[granite forum]

hm

ok well is lovely in the right place

like is version.dll not in your mods folder

[frigid mica]

Is version.dll in the Steam folder

[wise moss]

zero clue, not experienced with modding on steam

i have all of the folders set up

[granite forum]

hm i have no clue

lol

[woven crag]

Mods should be in balatro's appdata

Not in whatever steamsettings is

[frigid mica]

Why is it in steamsettings

[granite forum]

oh wait yeah

[frigid mica]

Put it in the Balatro folder in the roaming folder iirc

[granite forum]

there are a lot of things there that shouldn't be

[wise moss]

so reinstall balatro and redo put throw everything in app data>

?

[eager shard]

just put %appdata% in your search bar if u cant find appdata

[frigid mica]

No

[eager shard]

just the mods folder

otherwise youre good

[frigid mica]

Just transfer smods into your app data

[wise moss]

do i put it in the mods flder or just balatro in app data

[woven crag]

The mods folder

[wise moss]

done

[frigid mica]

The mods folder, you should be in Roaming/Balatro/Mods I think

[woven crag]

Also you should delete BMM-Compat from your mods folder

[wise moss]

its working :) thank you guys

[woven crag]

It doesnt really do anything and is mostly just janky

[frigid mica]

What does Balamod scripting look like?

[wise moss]

Well a new problem has arose.

[candid rain]

Paladins gamer?

[wise moss]

for about 3 years,

[candid rain]

Oops replied to wrong one

Do you recognize the name F1NI

[wise moss]

Nope.

[candid rain]

ok

i have thousand of hours lol

[wise moss]

only happens when talisman is enabled

[wise moss]

its just a game i play whenever im bored, been always heavy on geometry dash my whole life hagha

[eager shard]

EVIL ASS BOSS BLIND

[prisma latch]

i have forgotten how to tarot

[dawn remnant]

sets game speed to x0.25...

[eager shard]

THERES A SOLID 5 SECONDS BETWEEN EVERY CARD SCORING

[formal orchid]

i'd just remove it from the mod's files

[dawn remnant]

/2 game speed per card played
you can't change it back
*1.01 game speed per second after until it reaches the previous speed
then you can change it

[wise moss]

but whenever i have talisman enabled it crashes.. any fix lmfao

[dawn remnant]

cryptid is known for crashing a lot

[wise moss]

so i just have to deal with it lmao

[dawn remnant]

its probably fixable
i dont know how

[woven crag]

Update talisman

You need newer

[dawn remnant]

is it possible to make text italic

[full edge]

hmmmmm

[prisma latch]

ohhh yeah

how could i forget

[wise moss]

installed it straight off of github and its the same version

reinstalled it tho

[full edge]

but also, entirely different, so i wouldn't worry about it

[prisma latch]

well its fineeee its an enhancement not a consumable

[full edge]

a new card type vs an enhancement. Though even then, i think it's fine if different mods have the same name for something

[prisma latch]

i think my biggest thing to think about with mystery cards is what balance i go with for the card's original effect vs their new theming

for example, with highest spires, the name would be fittingfor converting cards to the ladders suit, but the original card is high priestess which creates 2 planets, so do i stick with ladders or give it an effect based on planets/making consumables

[wise moss]

only things that are in there

should all be updated

[full edge]

I would lean fully on rethemeing them based on the new name

That way you end up with a new consumable that's a twist on tarots more broadly, rather than the n-th version of a tarot variation

[prisma latch]

yeah thats true

[full edge]

Also gives you the freedom not to have to add a bunch of new enhancements haha

[dawn remnant]

how do i make text italic?

[prisma latch]

hmm

[dawn remnant]

uh

low'r'd

[full edge]

At choir

[prisma latch]

thinking forwards with the future mechanics i want to add, on one hand it would be very nice for Her Oath Pin to make a random Pact card, but the thing with pacts is that if you use them they give you a random legendary in exchange for a permanent downside so it would be a little weird to only get one, take it or leave it

ill stick with it for now

[limber oak]

ok i actually really like how its performed

im keeping this in
(i added a way to be able to trigger this without needing debugplus)

[prisma latch]

an eternal joker that causes a boss blind if you use mod mechanics to destroy it..

interesting

[stable juniper]

most of the BFDIE cast are now implemented ^^ Ruler, Sidewalky, Sticker and Toothpaste remain without abilities

weird that the last 4 are the hardest to make abilities for

[limber oak]

the actual ordeal:
vessel loses his eternal sticker when you are in the shop, letting you do a sneaky on him

he notices this instantly tho and starts throwing hands

as a reward you get put back at the start of the ante

this is not shown in the video because that was not implemented at the time (now it is)

[prisma latch]

i kinda like the idea of it only being able to occur if you use modded mechanics to bypass the eternal sticker

but i understand wanting it to actually happen on an average playthrough lol

[limber oak]

yeah

this is a detrimental joker were talking about

[prisma latch]

ah ok

[limber oak]

theres a second one, but you... cant really get rid of a ghost

[stable juniper]

that's great news!

[main path]

just got my second custom collection ui done

[limber oak]

yeah, people were complaining of no way to counteract vessel

now you can,
if you can defeat him when he starts throwing hands

[stable juniper]

-# oh i'm. making a ghost joke

[rain orbit]

It'd be like really cool if I had a title icon

For my mod

Makes it like

More authentic

N stuff

[prisma latch]

i want a unique thing for my mod to do to the title that isn't just Adds the logo and a new card, but i cant think of much

[cold rose]

Oh really

[rain orbit]

I'm eating mike and ikes rn and their flavors are really accurate to their descriptions

[naive stone]

Say, hypothetically, that I made 4 custom collab suits and that I've also got 8 jokers drawn and am planning to make a mod soon-ish, should I make two separate mods, one for the collabs and another for the jokers, or am I better off keeping both in one package?

One of them 👀

[rain orbit]

It should be 2 mods that are compatible

[naive stone]

Ok ok

[main path]

I think making them separate mods but having your content mod also add the collab suit skins if your other mod is not present is the best choice

[rain orbit]

Like card sleeves for cryptid

[naive stone]

Ohh I didnt think of that as a possibility

Yeah that would prolly be the best approach

[main path]

Also wait your name seems familiar
Are you by any chance the one that made the gd gauntlet level "Magmatic Sanctuary"?

[rain orbit]

Actually wait

[naive stone]

Lmfao

Ermm yes

[rain orbit]

You can just port all the new suit content into the new suit mod

[naive stone]

Hi

[main path]

Yo i didnt expect you to be here lmao

[plush hound]

anybody knows the parameter for copy_card

[main path]

This looks sick btw

[main path]

first parameter is the card youre copying

thats mostly what youll need unless youre doing something advanced

[plush hound]

isee

[plush hound]

this results in an error tho

[main path]

No thats a separate function

copy_card(other, new_card, card_scale, playing_card, strip_edition)

cards dont have a copy method

[plush hound]

ohhh

okay i see now

[plush hound]

so just like copy_card(source)

[main path]

Refer to vanilla remade DNA, death for examples on normal copy_card usage

[ember flicker]

can someone tell eremel to dm me for the malvark modicon

if he pops in modgen

i'm going to bed

[main path]

Couldnt you just grab the icon from the repo?
Unless you're asking for permission to use it for something

[normal hollow]

smods.copy_card when

[ember flicker]

there is no icon

[main path]

Oh

[normal hollow]

@west hill

[ember flicker]

i'm making one and

[plush hound]

finally works

[naive stone]

Honestly, I had already planned on making a ruler for my own mod and wanted to add the ability I have in mind to it myself 😭

Rn I'm thinking of x2.5 mult if cards scored add up to 30

[coarse snow]

W card

[main path]

Seems like a really strict condition
Maybe make the sum requirement more than 28 and less than 32 or something

[naive stone]

It seems strict, but like, you can go for full houses, three of a kind faces, some straights, etc etc

Its just a lot more thinking

[dawn remnant]

yeah for 2.5x mult

[naive stone]

Kind of a flower pot vibe

[stable juniper]

it's way too specific though

[dawn remnant]

its not great

[stable juniper]

maybe a range

[dawn remnant]

its way harder than flower pot

[naive stone]

Idk, putting 3 face cards isnt that tough, but the specific mult amount could change, nothing there's been tested

[dawn remnant]

no i mean its way too specific

[naive stone]

Maybe

[stable juniper]

maybe allow 35-45

[main path]

Any 2 pair such as 8 8 7 7, 6 6 9 9, 5 5 (any face or 10) (any face or 10) would do it

[stable juniper]

or 25-35

[main path]

as well as 3oak 10 or faces

yeah dont pick this up on a flush run

[stable juniper]

just get card sharp man

[dawn remnant]

idk i feel like its just not good enough for the condition

[naive stone]

Ye well card sharp is kinda busted

But gets completely invalidated by a few bosses

Risk reward kinda deal

[main path]

yeah i think if ya made this a x3 mult like card sharp itd feel a little better
Still not generally as useful as card sharp but doesnt get blanked by bosses

[naive stone]

Ye

[main path]

Not all jokers need to be generically useful

[naive stone]

I dont have any joker drawn for it nor have I programmed it yet so I only shared the idea

[dawn remnant]

what rarity is it

[main path]

Anyways time to continue working on ui shenanigans

[naive stone]

I think its sort of a gimmick joker which gets you out of a tough spot if needed and becomes way better if you bump up the number

xmult is uncommon to me

[dawn remnant]

i feel like it's something you have to build around to play consistently

or just 3oak face

[naive stone]

It probably is, somewhat

[dawn remnant]

or 10

[main path]

Just a heads up, balatro UI is really jank to wrap your head around at first if you ever need to interact with Balatro's UI system

[naive stone]

Ok noted

I basically created my card suits mod already, I just havent done anything to post it yet

[main path]

Tbf having a few jokers that have more intense deck building reqs compared to the others definitely retains the philosophy of vanilla joker design imo

[naive stone]

Got familiarised with how modding worked at surface level but soon I'll move on to tougher stuff

Yeah I'm going for a very vanilla-esque mod if I can pull it off, something like Extra Credit

[plush hound]

does this mean it exists but they have no value?

[main path]

i havent looked too much into how balatro gets steam data but i can check the vars really quick

[plush hound]

would be really nice because im using it for a joker rn

[gentle raptor]

I present my Magnum Opus

Hour Mute -
Cards held in hand gain +1 Mult

(the anti-hiker)

[main path]

G.STEAM.user.getSteamID() gets the steam id

(its a function)

[plush hound]

right

i forgot that

yeah it works now

[main path]

Same with G.STEAM.user.getPlayerSteamLevel()

[dawn remnant]

what functions checks if your score is over the blind requirement after a hand is played?

[plush hound]

got it, thanks

[main path]

and then for language its G.STEAM.apps.getCurrentGameLanguage()

[main path]

Do you need to check if current played hand would set the score on fire?
If so theres a quick way to check with the context system

if SMODS.last_hand_oneshot and context.after then
    -- do code
end

Theres not really a dedicated function to checking the score iirc

[plush hound]

if i want to use this for my loc_vars, how would i do it

[dawn remnant]

no uh i mean i want to change it to check if your score is under the blind requirement

[main path]

???
Do you mean by just returning the id in loc vars?
then just store the result of calling that function as a variable then return the variable like

local id = -- do id stuff
return {
  vars = {
    id
  }
}

[main path]

Score as in your current score before the hand's total gets added or the total amount of score that the hand would add?

[plush hound]

eh

[keen knoll]

yea

[main path]

Id assume G.STEAM doesnt exist when loading a file

[plush hound]

soo what do i do here

[keen knoll]

make an event?

[main path]

We should probably move to #💻・modding-dev

[dawn remnant]

i mean after a hand is scored the game checks if the score is higher than the requirement, and if it is, ends the round
i want it to end the round if the score is lower than the requirement

[ember flicker]

its only useful for getting language, steamlevel and id

[keen knoll]

you could just uh

[main path]

they want to make a joker that interacts with those

[ember flicker]

balatro doesnt use an updated version of luasteam so u can't even get the amount of friends

[keen knoll]

i think in after step you can check G.GAME.blind.chips and G.GAME.blind

[dawn remnant]

in what?

[normal hollow]

this is what you want?

[dawn remnant]

i tried that before but didn't work

i think its Game:update_hand_played(dt)

[normal hollow]

what are you trying to do exactly?

[dawn remnant]

#⚙・modding-general message

but this looks like what im looking for
if G.GAME.chips - G.GAME.blind.chips >= 0 or G.GAME.current_round.hands_left < 1

[normal hollow]

ah ok

[candid rain]

what does teh meow tag do in cryptid

[ember flicker]

meow

[ember flicker]

u win if u have level 5 cat

[woven orchid]

cat tags do nothing but meow and merge with other cat tags

[dawn remnant]

oh wait i think i need that too

and now it says saved by mr bones

theres probably just another check

[normal hollow]

you can change the smods variable for that

G.GAME.saved_text

[blissful stag]

Another day another 3 mods for crossy

[dawn remnant]

oh i also need G.FUNCS.evaluate_round

thats why it says saved

[alpine cosmos]

hiiiiii chat

[ember flicker]

hii

[keen knoll]

you can also just return { saved = "localization_key" }

then it displays the corresponding key in localization.misc.dictionary

[normal hollow]

not in a hook

[blissful stag]

never heard of that atleast

[keen knoll]

dont

just delete it

[blissful stag]

why

[normal hollow]

yeah dont do that one

[blissful stag]

okay

[keen knoll]

pred

[blissful stag]

oh god

[keen knoll]

yea :(

[blissful stag]

okay I guess

[keen knoll]

wait is that like fusion tarots

[blissful stag]

no

its just like

a mod that increases the amount of cards you can select with tarots that affect only 1 card

by 2

[keen knoll]

ok? thats just boring and a bit busted

[dawn remnant]

ok it works

[blissful stag]

im going to make a boring joker to compensate

[dawn remnant]

now i need to change when the score catches on fire

[keen knoll]

too confusing imo

[dawn remnant]

i mean its just score at most

and idk how to change the text

[ember flicker]

u need to update the blind score text too

[dawn remnant]

yeah ik

[keen knoll]

you CAN set the blind score text to an arbritrary number

i do it in my bucket joker

[dawn remnant]

wait no i'm not changing the blind score text just "score at least" to "score at most"

also its only gonna be score at most on even antes

[keen knoll]

oh

so if you overscore then youre screwed?

[dawn remnant]

yeah

because

im making the blind requirement negative

on even antes lol

[blissful stag]

thats not alot of mods

[keen knoll]

thats evil

are you making a challenge deck

[dawn remnant]

uh btw

yes you can get negative score

otherwise this would be impossible lol

[keen knoll]

oh

what if you just multiply G.GAME.blind.chips by -1

[dawn remnant]

i already got the negative blind scaling to work

what im trying to do

is find where the game

checks to see if the selected hand

will beat the blind

[keen knoll]

oh

[dawn remnant]

cuz i need to update the on fire thing

[keen knoll]

uhh look around for evaluate_poker_hand maybe

[dawn remnant]

oh i think its G.FUNCS.flame_handler

[keen knoll]

ohh

[dawn remnant]

wait no uh

ok im so confused

doing a search for G.GAME.chips

doesn't have anything related to that

[wanton sleet]

how do i add a sticker to a card with debugplus

like a playing card in my hand

[keen knoll]

try evaluate_poker_hand ig

since the chip mult from that hand will trigger the fire animation if the hand's base chip mult can win

[dawn remnant]

unfortunately theres nothing there

ok imma search score_intensity

[dusty token]

at functions/misc_functions.lua

[dawn remnant]

ok bruh it is in flame_handler

if G.ARGS.score_intensity.earned_score >= G.ARGS.score_intensity.required_score and G.ARGS.score_intensity.required_score > 0 then

because for some reason theres an entire different set of score and blind score variables

[keen knoll]

lol

[dawn remnant]

G.ARGS.score_intensity.earned_score <= G.ARGS.score_intensity.required_score
and it still does it at the wrong time

[frigid mica]

What if Stocking Stuffer had a present named “Suspiciously Familiar Butterfly” and it’s just the Entropy Butterfly

[blissful stag]

a boring joker for a practically non existent mod

what rarity should it be

[keen knoll]

uncommon imo

since its kinda like drivers license

[dawn remnant]

i

[blissful stag]

thats true

[dawn remnant]

oops

[keen knoll]

ooh you could also make it a better fortune teller

[blissful stag]

oh it actually is kinda like drivers lisence

[dawn remnant]

i'd change the wording
2 Steel... -> Pair of Steel...
card -> cards

[blissful stag]

that would eliminate the ease of changing its values

[dawn remnant]

oh thats fair

but pluralize card lol

[blissful stag]

i always take into account those mods that change values for some reason

i mean this is kindve a better drivers lisence

but x0.1 mult is really bad

MAYBE ill just change it to chips

[keen knoll]

there are numbers beteeen 0.1 and 0.25

[blissful stag]

yeah but what number would be good to look at

[dawn remnant]

0.2

0.15

[blissful stag]

balatro restricts itself to 0.5 0.25 and 0.1

[dawn remnant]

they're still "round" numbers

[blissful stag]

hm

its between 0.2 and 0.15

i guess 0.2

[keen knoll]

you guessed correct

[blissful stag]

its X0.4 mult behind drivers lisence

but then again this is limited to only those 5 enhancements

ok ill just bump it back of to 0.25

oh god

well atleast i dont have to do effort for its sprite

[dawn remnant]

fuck it ill figure out how to fix fire later

[candid rain]

Is Trecedim broken?

None of this stuff is triggering bro

[long hare]

trecedim, unlike other cryptid jokers, actually needs joker slots to function

[candid rain]

right, but it was creating M jokers at the end of each round. i would sell the M jokers and trecedim would not go up at all

[long hare]

trecedim needs to sell jolly jokers, not m jokers

at least i think hold on

[candid rain]

then why were my M jokers labelled as jolly

[long hare]

? you mean the edition?

[blissful stag]

where the hell could its mod id POSSIBLY be

oh wait nvm i found it

i need better glasses

[candid rain]

i would hover over the M joker, and it would say "jolly joker + 8 mult"

[long hare]

that's because most m jokers mention jolly joker

that's not saying that it is jolly joker, its defining what jolly joker is

[rain orbit]

I updated and renamed gegg to "wegg"

[shy quail]

ok guys I have this upgraded variant for the wild card but I dont like its effect does someone as a better idea

[winged prism]

Damn I would be confused for a while too

[blissful stag]

some guy : "MAke it so the card coutns as any rank"

i havent tinkered with omni ranks yet

but i heard horror stories about it

[rain orbit]

It counts as all suits and can be used in place of missing ranks in rank dependent hands

[long hare]

actually make it related to wild card

Evolved Wild Card
Also counts as [Rank]. Rank changes when held in hand at the end of the round

[winged prism]

Omni ranks don't sound interesting to me

Like at all

[main path]

Basically straight calculation is hell with omni ranks

[rain orbit]

But like 5 evolved wilds wouldn't be flush 5s

It's kinda like 4 fingers except it's replacing a card instead of removing one

[main path]

not to mention the feature is probably hella laggy

[shy quail]

yeah im not sure about omni rank too

[keen knoll]

you could just apply a shortcut ig

[rain orbit]

Omni rank is just free flush 5s

Mine is better

[long hare]

yeah i didnt do omnirank for my suggestion because of this. birank is much better

[shy quail]

tbh the effect I was thinking was

• Remove debuff from every card play when play
• Remove debuff from every card held when held
• Cant be debuff

[rain orbit]

There should be happy and sad variants depending on of the card's parents supported their coming out as birank

One for high ranks and another for low ranks

[rain orbit]

Too op

[keen knoll]

imo the best rank manip enhancement is still index cards

[long hare]

tbh cant be debuffed is bunco's laminated

[shy quail]

but I am not able to make it work

[keen knoll]

theyre linited enough to be balanced but also still useful and also easy to code since the rank is player controlled

[shy quail]

yeah its very op but wild are BAD

[keen knoll]

what if wild let you draw 4

[long hare]

also can i say that laminated has a bug that removes hiker-like upgrades

[rain orbit]

The birank solution still fits the wild card expansion part

It's "in character" one would say

[winged prism]

I wonder what the fuck Thunk is plotting with the wild buff

[keen knoll]

what is he thunking

[winged prism]

What the thunk

[rain orbit]

Probably that it can't be debuffed by boss blinds that debuff certain suits

Like the club

[long hare]

yeah wild sucks with suitdebuff blinds

[dawn remnant]

he'll make wild cards count as a random suit every round!!!

[keen knoll]

OOH wait actually yk what would be REALLY cool???

[long hare]

wild should only be debuffed according to its original suit

[winged prism]

Revolutionary

[rain orbit]

Welp there goes my ancient build

[keen knoll]

wild cards apply shortcut

[frigid mica]

When you said this, I kept thinking about the Einstein calculator meme.

[rain orbit]

That makes shortcut useless then

[keen knoll]

you dont call smeared joker useless

[winged prism]

Eh idk idk

[dawn remnant]

shortcut gets changed to +1 maximum gap range

[keen knoll]

also i mean it applys shortcut like

[dawn remnant]

imagine the straights

[keen knoll]

it can fill the space above and below ir

ie 9 8 7 5w 3

but not 9w 8 7 5 3

[winged prism]

So index without buttons

[keen knoll]

i guess

also only for straights

[rain orbit]

I forgor what I was gonna say

But shortcut is only for straights

[winged prism]

Index with extra straight, and hold the rank sauce

[frigid mica]

I like inquino’s old effect, all cards count as any suit and rank.

[cursive silo]

any mod recommendations i want something fun cryptid is getting a tad boring

[keen knoll]

my thinking is that wild cards support flushes currently, and flush and straight are the only hands naturally paired together, so it would support straights somehow too

[rain orbit]
