Inscryption!
got mah eye on you
cute pfp you have there, who is that cat on there? 
cinema
anyone up for a multiplayer match?
Like every time when you show these off, these look so good!
i don't think it was announced what effect it would've had
spriter ressources comments says this was made by lumpytouch too
lies
-# it's actually me
:(
:)
:'(
:')
:'D
:'0
:'@
:'3
im donee
here's one idea i had for it
woah
woah
starts at x1 obv
wouldn't fit the mod that i put it in but yeah fair enough
was this even called chaos theory
have u added back pattern and spoon in rebalanced @sweet bramble
oh that's a neat idea i hadn't thought of that!
not sure what effect i'd give them and i'm not too fond of "metaprogression"
well for pattern you could make the most played consumable appear in the shop
outside of soul
as for tesselation it could become negative?
as for spoon you could add a cashback feature? @sweet bramble
cashback would be neat maybe
like 1 in 10 chance to get 10% or 1$ cashback whichever is larger
for stage 1
and stage 2 is 1 in 10 chance to get 15% or 1$ cashback whichever is larger
i say 1$ but really if u wanna take in count clearance sale type vouchers u probably should
for stage 1 maybe the payout could be like 25-50% and maybe fixed odds (1 in 10 is solid if a little low, maybe 1 in 8?)
for stage 2, hear me out, full cashback on editioned cards
since i saw many screenshots with jokers and cards that cost lest than a dollar
oooh
also with pattern and tesselation, i'd rather them not pull from overall stats and i don't think they'd work per-run as there's no ui for that (yet, i guess...)
yeah, most used card in a run
alright i'm listening
but for suits
so like free suit tarots?
telescope i mean
no i mean when u draw a tarot pack
u draw ur most played suit tarot
okay yeah i see the vision
and observatory gives xmult if hand contains the suit associated with the tarot
fire idea
banger
thank you thank you that will be one golden pelt please
either that or you submit urself to being dead
with leshy's camera
lmao
im adding deathcards to balatro
ew
inscryiption is peak
art is also peak
Flavour win, for sure
The forbidden run began with ice deck
I'm unfamiliar with balatro's art style yet and I know this looks absolutely ass
But I thought it would be funny
its pretty good
it honestly looks very good
No it isn't?
I like it
It's really just a resprite of a normal vanilla deck with some details changed because I couldn't draw a new pattern myself
new card design
Looks just like me
finally added placeholder art
a
a
I love this so much
What’s the effect?
Things in the shop can now be frozen (won't be replaced until unfrozen)
oh like in nubby
Hold on that's fire
Also super auto pets
Though I wish it represented the weird route more
Ehh
what weird route
From Deltarune
That's... not the thorndeck is it?
Imagine how cool it would be if jimbo said this line when you lost with this deck
Man I wish I knew how to mod, I have so many ideas sometimes
Holy shit I just noticed is that butcher vanity card
I’d say either the frozen store idea or some kind of frozen enhancement
Maybe frozen cards could be like worse stone cards but when you play them a certain amount of times they thaw into something better
can someone send me official server discord of Cryptid?
thank you alot!
no worries
Here’s 3 ideas for jokers:
mint ice cream - gives
8$ at the end of a round (decreases by 1 each round)
Fragile ego - played glass face cards permanently get + X1 mult
Black mirror - broken glass cards have a 1/2 chance to give a spectral card
What rarity is fragile ego
Ive not made it yet but i was thinking rare
Hmm, all the other ones are awesome! But idk about ego. Maybe when face glass are broken?
Thank you, do you think it’s too underpowered ?
Double the chances of glass cards breaking
I think that on ego would balance it
probably
If its not clear i mean for it to be like hiker
OH
Where the cards themselves gain X1 mult
OH THAT MAKES MORE SENSE
Yeah its still op
I thought you meant like the one legendary
If I knew coding at all ( I want to learn to mod balala so bad bro) I would make these
Use joker forge
No way there’s a real thing for that
Bet
Okay i’ll do that
Yeah it’s pretty well made, there’s some bugs but it does the job
Of course it’s better to learn lua too
SMODS is really well made
me when my card breaks and gains xmult that it can't use since its broken
nah bro just get lucky
It’s okay tjere was a misunderstanding it was my bad
Dude thank you so much I wanted something like this so bad
fragile egos pretty similar to one of the cards I made if u want balancing ideas
Tell me more
All good, there’s a disc server for it too
Imagine if there was evil dice that -1 odds of things
Unbreakable glass 😱
no
it gets increasingly likely to break
yep
No I just mean for evil dice
Ooo neat me likey
thats how this happened
just with 8 million retriggers cuase i was screwing around
uhh I got thishttps://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1209506360987877408/1473286185978822717/image.png?ex=6995a82f&is=699456af&hm=5feb38b8bba30da17fd3da1a7eecb8286b2c66e7a38609b84828362ca315064f&
oh that's an old ss there's no sprite
same effect though
Inflation (just need to figure out how to hook Card:set_cost)
Wait but surely 4/8 =3/6
And 5/10 is the same
So it just stays the same
it doesnt hit 4/8
or 5/10
1/4 -> 2/5 -> 3/6 -> 4/7 -> 5/8 -> 6/9 -> 7/10
I like that idea
also if you do some simple math
lim n->infinity of (1 + n) / (4 + n) = 1
so the card gets closer and closer to always breaking
@loud pulsar green is 1
blue is chance to break
what do y'all think of this effect
unfortunately, it actually goes against most king builds because most king builds are baronmime
u can fix ur deck and expand it
fuck i dont want the glow

I wanna ask something
my mod adds a 3rd multiplier to the game
Should I change it so it exponentiates chips instead
I'm afraid people will think it's just Xmult all over again
That's why I like it
yay
just gotta sprite miku now yay
is there a context that gets run constantly? i need to check a channel as often as i can and i dont see any context that would do that (i bearly looked through the contexets lol)
if context.??? then
local chat = love.thread.getChannel("twitch_chat"):pop()
if chat then
-- stuff
end
end
theres update = function(self,card) iirc that runs every frame
yeah
what revo said
Oh? sorry im new to making jokers lol thx ill check it out
people need to use love.handlers more
--- in thread
love.event.push("twitch_chat", msg)
--- in main
function love.handlers.twitch_chat(msg)
-- stuff
end
you can try looking at TwitchBlinds to see how sleepy does it
ts so underrated
one finger
anything below a 10 is a straight flush, anything from 10 is a royal flush
so real
Yeah wait sorry thats my bad
Would anyone use this enhancement:
card is destroyed if left in hand at the end of a blind and +3$
Is that op do you think
well no
Okay good
I’m gonna call it explosive and the art is gonna have like C4 strapped to it
i made my own ouro
imo you could probably get away with removing the money bonus and making the tarot enhance 4 cards
X1 xMult
Do I replace anything for Mime
I start the game on steam
And then it closes
And I can't even play it
Okay sounds good
I want to make a kidnapper joker that for some reason somehow makes cards explosive
Havznt decided yet
experimenting to see if i should transfer the perma bonus or not
ok fair enough
cant wait to buy a 20 million dollar pc so that the aspect ratio looks good enough so that i can send a single screenshot here
It's moreso to prevent the encouragement of piracy
hey does anyone know why this is happening
Can someone help me? My game is crashing whenever I try to install the multiplayer mod using mod manager
sometimes, the answer lies in the question itself
funny enough i dont think ur able to mod the actual play store legally purchased apk without rooting ur phone
the issue isn't piracy, it's the way mods are loaded onto those devices. Balatro modding relies on code injection
The actual mobile version is too different for that yeah
Afaik
not that
modding balatro requires patching
patching requires root
also now pokermon isnt working
on android
Time to mess around with shaders again, today
check this out ice kino
Oh, that looks sick. Is that Leshyas a card skin?
What Joker do I convert into another?
Oooh, the stitch looked so in line with the card art that I thought it was part of the same sprite, hahaha. But that stitch looks great!
Nvm Jst realised I can get 2 more copies 0f one card
thanks, i finally was able to better visualize merged cards
also i finished ouroboros
Oh, so it's a scaling joker that also gives you some money when it scales, basically?
There's no downside to sacrificing it, right?
you good at telling what jokers are good?
No, haha, I'm terrible at the game
no as long as you wait two rounds to sell it for it to count as a sacrifice
I wanted to ask why it doesn't just trigger itself, if there's no downside, but it makes a lot more sense, flavourwise, to have to take that step yourself
because you can also sacrifice it with dagger
Ooh, yeah, that makes sense, yeah
Trapper deck
3 hands, 4 discards
Each card from the first hand you've played in a round permanently gets +2 mult
All the playing cards you start with are eternal
What
So you cant go under 52?
I guess
Erosion synergy
erosion antisynergy actually
because erosion wants to be under 52
you're probably thinking of blue joker
you'd only want blue joker if you have a good source of mult, which this deck has built into it
Does a round just mean any blind?
yes
yeah a round is between selecting a blind and cashout
Its a unique concept i like it
Could someone send the sprite for jimbo and the red deck in their actual sizes
Or does anyone know a way I download the individual sprites
Thank you thank you
also you can unzip the exe
Ohg
https://discord.com/channels/1116389027176787968/1456650127300231240
this should help as well
-# it has a lot of helpful images
whats the size for tarot card atlases?
same size as joker atlases, 71x95
71*95 still
are the tarots just smaller then?
a bit thinner yeah
or is cryptid being weird
any way to use websockets? i cant find one :c
ight thx
Manny appreciations
tarots have a 4px margin on the horizontal sides instead of the 1px that jokers have
you're very welcome!
I got 86 on magma bound are you all proud of me

jumping from a medium demon cuz all the hard demons I tried grinding were all shit
Would anyone mind doing some art for a project?
( not for balatro )
Goated hand ngl
holy moly.
9/5 btw
yes, i see.
sell everythi- /j
what in the red seal lucky abstract joker happened
I got a card that made 2 copies of one joker it had a red seal
so
siIvagunner is a team name at this point, I'm moderately sure
i never followed them that much if I'm tbh
(it's also spelled with a capital i, not a lowercase L, due to the channel's origins as a bait-and-switch joke; the original siLvagunner was just a video game ost reupload channel)
crazy rabbit hole for sure
siivagunner is honestly more like two teams
it's split into the rippers (which handles the day to day bait and switch uploads) and siivagunner fusion records (the serious musicians who handle the events like kfad, dj professor k's takeover, mii plaza palooza, etc). there's probably a large amount of overlap but there's definitely two distinct teams
they also used to take rip submissions, but that's closed indefinitely while they work through years of backlogged submissions lmao
but why do your jokers have enhancements
Seals On everything
If I put a stone enhancement on it what would happen
+50 chips but loses its original effect im guessing
prob
guys.. play #1325147180280971294 .. i heard it got updated and requires feedback..
is that the undertale heart?
it's an enhancement btw
I'm actually curious if this deck would be any good in late game, because I've never played past ante 8 and I have no experience, so like can you guys tell me out of your own experience
i feel like it's just trying to do a bit too much
i dunno what the theme is supposed to be referencing exactly, but it feels more like a challenge than a regular deck to me
i don't see why you'd need to touch the hands and discards
You have more discards which means that you can cycle to the cards you've upgraded the most easier
i suppose
I was thinking of a 4th face card to add to the game, specifically the Knight (Kn on the top)
Is that common for people to think of?
no deck fixing means you generally can't consistently draw the cards you've built though
not super common, but paperback adds the Apostle and there's the Royal Family mod
https://balatromods.miraheze.org/wiki/Royal_Family
so you'd want to upgrade more cards in a round instead and the 3/4 thing actually harms it
i'd personally rather pick Page than Knight just because it has a unique abbreviation
so yeah it's more of a challenge deck than a beneficial one
Fair, Cavalier is also the other choice (C)
Does Royal Family still work? I would imagine it's very outdated at this point. :V
I don't quite see how
Because as I said, only the first hand of each round is getting upgraded
So how is the number of total hands gonna harm
i haven't tested, but the latest update was in august so it's not that old
oh
then it's extra ass
What would you recommend then
Okay
Also I think making it so that every card you play even outside the first hand is getting upgraded won't hurt too because you cannot upgrade the same cards in one round anyway
yeah
yes
Question: If i make a file pack of Wallpaper engines that are the boss blinds, is that allowed or is that against copyright
Ive got them in my personal wallpapers right now, but I want to make them available to everyone
Sorry if this doesnt fall under modding, i just dont really know where to ask about this
I dont think it would be against copyright
Im assuming you mean just the boss blind background colours
yes and the swirl effect
the swirl effect is just a shader in balatro so i cant imagine using a video/whatever of it for an animated wallpaper would be an issue
here's some cards to expect in my mod idea
Housing Market
Animal Crossing: The Movie
Sports Almanac
Bag Of Candy Bananas
Im doing it for every background including packs, but now I know where to post it so thank you! Im making it a package, and in the future im hoping to make them color shift between blinds. This is my first time using C so it will probably be a while before i know how to do that
🫡
😁
this is image is saying "yes, you can have the background shader, but you must also have this toilet i have"
Holy mixels
why are there like 5 different mixel ratios here
ive never made pixel art before what does that mean
the hand looks... off idk why
mixels are basically when there are pixels that are smaller than other pixels
the original tarot card details are drawn on a 71x95 pixel canvas (with some transparency on all sides)
your canvas is upscaled from that several times, and you're drawing pixels smaller than the ones in the original details
yeah i just downloaded it from the wiki i was kinda annoyed by that
you have to downsize it
So I finally bought it on Steam. What should I do first on a fresh account?
these should be at the original resolution
https://www.spriters-resource.com/pc_computer/balatro/
oh btw, art not associated with a mod goes in #🎨・fan-art
oh okay thanks
also since you're fooling around with the minor arcana, i will take this opportunity to shill paperback to you (the mod has minor arcana as custom consumables)
i actually have played that mod before
i enjoyed it
i guess i didnt play enough to see this card tho
idk i mainly use paperback for dreamer's sleeve lmao
if you're looking for mod recommendations, my top two are always paperback and all in jest
blindside and ortalab are really great too, but i wouldn't recommend either of them until you get more acquainted with balatro itself, since they both make significant overhauls based on vanilla systems
for qol mods, grab handy, it does a bunch of useful stuff
for installing a mod in general, instructions should be on the SMODS github page for installing lovely and smods
oh I have thunderstore
it's a mod manager app for multiple games that people use
like I use it for megabonk and risk of rain 2
Quite a common mod manager afaik
you are correct eris
Balatro is on there but all the mods there are quite outdated
idk the closest i have to something like that is curseforge
...and I got confused by the upload requirements.
so I shouldn't use thunderstore @forest knoll?
if you want new/er mods, probably yeah
correct
not yet, at least
the version of smods on thunderstore is exceedingly outdated
and basically no one uploads their mods to thunderstore
Got it
I'll have to figure out the new way of putting mods in balatro after my first run is over
it's rather easy
here's a great place to start
#1349064230825103441 message
i've been putting off making the art for peeker (gallery joker)
im sure you can make a html wallpaper that reproduces the main menu bg, so that u can tweak the colors as u like
complete 5 runs first.
Wait thats such a cool idea, Im way better at html too so it wont be that hard
are you gonna add the death card?
i added the deathcard mechanic to balatro
oh my god awesome
yo thank you
just dl my mod and uhhh go in jokers and take 0,0
font is not in there i'll send it later
?
currently the deathcard inherits the selected cards' rarity, abilites and editions
idk what else could be transfered
well it takes the whole ability table
like i said
it takes the full ability of the joker (calculate etc)
its rarity and edition
i wanted to make it have stickers too but unsure
the only way to give a card mult is via my mod lol (that i know of)
if it takes the full ability im sure it takes stickers too without u doing anything
newcard.ability.extra.mult = card.ability.extra.mult
is that mult card
because i remember bonus counts as +30 chip value to the card itself
bonus is called perma_bonus
oh yeah i also need to give the player the ability to name the card
i think mult is perma_mult
thats why i told u bout the font
i need to finish it tbh
you can also have perma xmult
and xchips too right
you can have most stuff as perma no?
with smods
yeah, and the held of each as well
i think there is also perma dollars but i might be wrong
yeah there's perma dollars, i used it in topaz shard
i think? i use jokerforge
oh right
i cant code, i'm a jokerforge fan /ref
use the myco as a template for longest name
i'll probably drawstep the name over the card
i think a max char of 8 is best for optimization
ah
shouldnt be that hard to make
9 without changing card frame
11 if u change the frame
i think u could fit 10
wait no u cant
not without changing frame
eh it shouldnt be a problem
char is 5x8
guys is this enough to get a wheel to hit?
no
what mod are you using to display that
noituus
it's alex343xd/Noituus on codeberg
no
idk if mayhem supports aikoshen but idk
Is this a certified mayhem moment
try with that
ima check
ye
also why does nooitus exist
I love 50 competing standards
I saw the pokermon mod is that ok to download alongside these?
mayhem, does infact, support aikoshen
pokermon is best experienced on its own. by default it even forces the game to only generate pokermon jokers (the setting can be turned off, but still)
no
awh looks like ima have to get more
ah ok
I assume I just grab the zip file from github and then extract it putting it into the mods folder?
pretty much yea
make sure you download from the "Releases" sidebar on the right, not the green code button
got it
This isn't always the case. Some devs will say download from the green Code button.
those devs are bad and wrong
those devs are bad and wrong
those devs are bad and wrong
-# this is the chain we're doing? fine.
those devs are bad and wrong
not a chain
LMAO
But in all seriousness, check the mod's GitHub to see what that specific developer suggests.
Some just use the Code button and call it a day, while some make Releases.
its R
Am i right in remembering in the old days that was some EEEEEEEEEEE joker that said EEEEEE when you got it? It was a super hard to get. Or am i dreaming something up? I dont remember the mod name.
I belive you had to obtain it though fusion or somehting similar.
that sounds mayhem adjacent (unconfirmed)
idk, but that seems like something that'd be in yahimod
it sounds like yahimod's sense of humor, but iirc that mod doesn't interact with fusion
I remember seeing someone that replaced their entire computer font with unown
hey i have an idea for a custom deck, but i dont know how to make one. would anyone care to teach me / make it for me?
what is nooitus?
Its another consumable stacking mod
It does pretty much the exact same thing as all the others and only exists as a dependency for mayhem
Despite mayhem using a different consumable stacking mod at first
thx, would you care to hear and maybe give me constructive critisism about the idea?
sure but i might not - just post it here and annoy people with it a bit and people will react/give feedback most likely
So it's a deck that makes every joker negative, but jokers that affect chips, mult or money are debuffed/removed
and if more serious about it, make a thread in #1209506514763522108
👍
sounds nice
Well it's getting removed soon
And merged-ish with overflow
yh you gotta rely on deck fixing and retrigger jokers
forces you to play "mechanical" (?) jokers instead of mult goes brrr jokers
would definitely enjoy the challenge
Well yeah you can get a lot of retriggers and mime and stuff, and rely on for example polychrome cards
yeah
making every joker negative might be dangerous in modded setups though, i've seen a lot of jokers which are completely OP when having like 10+ jokers
Can you give an example?
but you could make two variants, one is the original and one is the more difficult one without negative jokers
I mean a lot of those are scoring or econ
Or cryptid
And cryptid is probably already broken
yeah true, i forgor
one thing im concerned about could be the start and getting the first enhancement to get econ
I cant really think of any non scoring, econ or cryptid joker that would be that crazy here
getting a lot of hand size jokers could be OP
I mean the start is probably very similar to jokerless
for example i think there is a blind in lobcorp (or kino?) which debuffs all jokers but the first one, and then gives some benefit for all debuffed jokers
I might consider this
but tbh modded setups shouldnt really concern you, i was just brainstorming
But i want it to be able to do crazy builds too if you get me
I get you
This as a sleeve for that deck. 😛
ahhh yes, this is a good example
like, its my fault if i break your perfectly balanced deck with some meme joker
Imo you just shouldnt consider other mods when balancing your own mod
yeah
At least not too heavily
even if you should, its just physically not possible
-# see: cryptid players bringing up rigged when they see a low probability in another mod
hey all would like some opinions
I wasnt really planning on that, i was hoping to make it more "vanilla" if thats even possible with mods. Just an extra deck
for negative scaling additive mult how should it be formatted
for something like ramen it says "loses x0.01" mult which makes sense
but saying "loses +1" makes less sense
just the same as popcorn right
wth is cookie run 😭
popcorn just says -4
😬
and i want a word beforehand because otherwise its inconsistent with the rest of the joker
"reduces by -x"
The Rupert Pupkin blind in Kino debuffs all jokers except the leftmost, and retriggers it once for each debuffed joker, yeah
reducing by a negative number is addition is my issue with doing that
pixel art is so much easier and faster than drawin holy
yesss, thanks
well then just do "reduces by x"
thunk why did you not make more negative scaling jokers for me to reference i love consistency i hate guesswork
we should stop using words and start using symbols for descriptions
I KNOW OF ALL INCONSISTENCIES AND NITPICKS
are you that person fka balatro wording hater or something like that?
no that's someone else
we are different
im balatro wording inconsistency hater
he's balatro wording hater
if it were consistent, balatro wording is 100% fine and beautiful
the wording hater guy just doesnt like how things are worded even though theyre almost all fine in vanilla contexts
hey strmnn you think i could use this? https://github.com/adambennett/Balatro-DeckCreator
I mean it is fairly ambiguous sometimes
Most have to do with gains/this joker gains and gives text for scaling jokers
would it be possible to make my silly deck "Real Life Deck" idea become real?
thats not ambiguous in effect thats just inconsistent
oof i have no idea, i just got back into balatro modding a bit...it looks nice, but also last commit 1 year ago could mean incompat with current smods maybe
also, creating decks should be simple, no? did you look at how other mods do it? did you read the specific article in the smods wiki?
Also its pretty limited
if a joker says Gains x0.5 Mult and it has an indicator at the bottom saying how much xmult it currently has youll almost always be able to assume Oh its this joker gaining xmult
Deck creator only supports some relatively basic effects
i havent i should do that
damn.
yeah definitely, smods is "just" an API so you will have a lot more freedom than with these creator thingys (no hate tho)
i hate words honestly
"just" = more low-level i guess
illusion lying feels like a non central example of "inconsistency". we can assume it's supposed to give seals and thunk just accidentally the code
notes like that are why i changed it from just inconsistencies to inconsistencies and nitpicks
someone should make a mod that triggers all these inconsistencies
1 out of 150...
Do you know of an smod that only adds a deck i could look at?
What kind of deck are you trying to make?
Inkbleed is a mod that really only adds one deck (and a sleeve)
but also there's 7 deadly decks, and VanillaPlusDecks
a deck where all jokers are negative, but all jokers who affect scoring or econ are removed
but a lot of general content mods also add decks
sort of a jokerless lite
maybe my mod has too many
So... what are you making negative if the Jokers that are Scoring / Econ are removed?
hack, mime, hand size jokers, anything like that
ohhh snap you guys did decks in vanillaremade as well i didnt even know
Vanillaremade has every vanilla object
do i only need the backs.lua thing?
or do i put everything in the mod and just only change backs.lua
chat is my round over instantly-
negative this + some scaling xmult might go hard
You should probably take a look at https://discord.com/channels/1116389027176787968/1349064230825103441 first
No way it’s the real niko oneshot playing balala mods
small blind, I think if you play a flush you can still one shot it ❤️
TRUE
Oh god
1st ante with naneinf-
its possible bro
nevermind - i dont think im up for this task lol
you can put it in your main file, i would recommend looking at the github wiki for how to make a mod first
it has a basic template
no seriously where do I put my crash log at?
believe in yourself (and your ability to learn on your own
)
guh i was hoping it would be as easy as a minecraft mod/datapakc
what the helly most minecraft mods are way more complex
datapacks maybe comparable
you think so?
yeah
Balatro mods are fairly simple lol
the community might be way smaller but still...
i made a mod or datapack - cant really remember as an addition to the origin mod
now it works @normal hollow
i can guarantee that everything you needed for that is 10x more than what you need for balala
buttt they atleast had a nice wiki
no offence
smods has a nice wiki too
like, did you look at https://github.com/Steamodded/smods/wiki/SMODS.Back ? or the example mods?
wouldnt say github is a great wiki
maybe ill make it just gotta take some time to configure my mind
i know, i hate github wikis as well, especially the search function, but still...the content is there and everything you should need
alright ill look at it again
so all i would need is to check if a joker affects scoring or econ right
and debuff it
I dont think theres a way to consistently check joker types rn
Not without hardcoding at least
I know something like that is in the works for steamodded though
yeah, i guess? for that, you could either research in smods api to find out if there's like "easy" accessors for that on joker objects, or just search through code of other mods - maybe it will come down to parsing the joker text, but even that was done before AFAIK
can i blacklist all jokers and just whitelist the ones that dont affect econ or mult?
OK yall why can't we discuss any other types of balatro modding other then PC that has always perplexed me
vanilla you could go through manually, modded jokers you obviously need to check dynamically
platforms tos dont allow it
Its against TOS of most other platforms
And thunk doesnt want companies on his ass for that
As in the official port or unofficial ports
both i think
yeah i think for this deck ill stick to deactiviating manually
okay got good quality now
the apple app store and google play store aren't happy about modding apps like that
wait how is geode allowed to work then?
Because robtop just kinda doesn't care
He's cool with it
but like they cant sue you for breaking tos
and its not that easy to just deny service
its just not worth the potential risk
mobile balatro modding is still possible, localthunk just isn't interested in having that risk on the Official Balatro Discord Server
ah
As in official port wise?
well then thats easy - idk how exactly that will work, but research any modded deck that disables or enables some subset of jokers and ur half way there - for example, some mods have decks that allow only jokers of that mod, or at least increase the probability of them appearing, like SDM_0's Deck in SDM_0
so
`local function force_negative_edition(card)
if card.config.center.set == "Joker" then
card:set_edition({negative = true}, true)
end
end
SMODS.Hook.add("post_card_create", "ForceNegativeJokers", force_negative_edition)
`
Also @novel heron is your pfp ment to be a reference to touhou
something like this
no it's some japanese prefecture flag i found one day randomly
Beans....
or actually not prefecture but like county or province or so
dont use chatgpt :3
SMODS.Hook is not a thing
man miku's hair is going to suck to draw
do you lot think this should be a probability (explosive cards self-destruct when left in hand at the end of a round)
do you think chat is too unreliable when it comes to this niche code?
yes
good point
chatgpt is too unreliable
you can ask it basic lua stuff like "how do loops work"
but anything that only exists in one corner of the internet, it's going to be the hallucination machine
i've found gemini to work pretty well, but i recommend cross referencing always
it will display garbage, but the garbage always has a "source"
?
is this SMODS.poll_edition
yes
could i use that to make all jokers in shop negative
no
it does work for jokers
the problem is where to call it
cryptid has the all negative deck iirc
true :D
isnt this what i just cited
more progress
W
actually now that i think of it i have another idea for a modded thing. a spectral card that turns a card into a "monitor" that copies all enhancements of a set card in deck (if the original one changes, all the monitors changes too
kinda, i screenshotted too much below and not enough above cuz i'm stupido
but the big n is right, thats not enough, you need to patch/hook
hey, how can i make the C++ achivement to pop out? my profile in vanilla appears as achivements dissabled, and the reason i played in modded beyond QOL+ mods was so i could get the achivements. and im just missing to reclaim the C++ one
i think if you enable them and play another game it works but if not then uhh just use the steam unlocker thing

accidentally set sprite pos x to this
Does anyone know if there's a mod to show your achievements ingame
is called Shift + tab to open the steam overlay and then check your achivements there /j
...
I do not think there is
Althought now that you mentioned it I want a mod like that...
judging by all the tiny cards you've bene beating bosses left right and center
Im trying to replicate the particle effect from the standard packs for a computer background and I need to find the code for it, does anyone know the best/safest way to view this code>
?
download 7zip and open the balatro exe
With it
Or just rename balatro.exe to balatro.zip and unzip the contents to somewhere
Ok awesome, thanks for the help!
Im guessing youve dug through the files before, do you have an idea where pack backgrounds would be?
The balatro files*
Well
The background is just a shader thats run with different colours depending on game state
The shader is in resources/shaders/vortex.fs though
or something like that
and i dont recall what function handles the colour changes for pack states
localthunk
can i play Joker Poker
i wanna create a mod of it
and i need inspiration
I'mm a see if I can smuggle in some unused decks into my mod lol
oh thats awesome u can use regular font
oh that deathcard img fuucks bro
I should make jokers based off of the music I listen to actually
i posted this in the servers with my friends, but if you got anything interesting feel free to say here too

oh what's the effect
big dumple
Some good ideas I’ll look into them when I get on my computer later
multiplier
Hello everyone my name is multiplier and welcome to five nights at jumbo’s

pretty late but boeuf bourguignon
Joker idea: Multiplier, effect with Mult Cards, maybe something like ancient joker but for mult cards
Multiplier
Rare
X1.1 Mult for each scored Mult Card, increases by X0.1 if 5 Mult Cards are scored in one hand
played the artbox mod today
the jokers are fun
the enhancements are actually cool
and the art consumables are fun to mess around with
hey can we ask for opinions about balance here?
Yes
Yes
oh thanks ✅
so i have a joker that gives money equal to the denominator whenever a probability succeeds. it's pretty cool for stuff that's a 1/2, 1/4, which is most things. it's a little much for things like the wheel, giving 7 dollars for every face down card, and giving $15 extra dollars on lucky card money hits. and obviously there's the big hit of cavendish dying, which would be absolutely broken in a run. I guess my question is, is the joker balanced by the fact that it's inherently based on the odds?
it might also be tough to understand at a glance, but I give an example in the description that (1 in 4 -> $4)
i would not call that balanced, no
This would have immaculate booray synergy
what's booray?
it would have been absolutely broken under ortalab's old X-1 in X chance of not gaining a benefit paradigm
It halves all probabilities, specifically by doubling the denominator
If paired with regular oops it would double the payout for each successful probability while having the same probabilities
i was gonna make a hermit-like condition for it where it has a maximum, like $20 or something
a cap would certainly be one way to rein it in
either that or it could like, gain chips. because +1000 chips isn't really that much for such a rare chance
i will say i'm mostly thinking about what exists in vanilla when making this, but I suppose it could be broken in scenarios where mods have wacky odds
Each vanilla joker effect's balancing is purely based on experience in the first 8 antes, so maybe look at things through that lens and see how it changes
yeah the point of this is like, you have a bloodstone or something and get some money for each hit, or you spin a wheel or fortune every so often and get $4 if it hits
cavendish is the thing that throws it off - 1/1000 is such high variance
which is why I think having a money cap would help
Most other money jokers either give money less often, less money in general or have a specific task to get said money
that's true. it could perhaps give half of the denominator.
me:geting to the part where Duck is bitten
the modding-general spamming me and i dont know how to turn it off 😭
I think in most contexts it rounds down
Notification settings for the server
Oh I thought it was up
ill check
it's inconsistent
sometimes it's down, sometimes it's half down
sometimes it's not rounded at all
for money i think it's always rounded

It'd be easier but less interesting
yeah. unfortunate. but "denominator" is a new keyword anyway
i think it's just that no vanilla effect is ever capable of giving non integer money
so, technically, not rounded at all
is that true? what about clearance sale?
i'd wanna make it work but it's probably more trouble than it's worth
point is there's no vanilla circumstance where a non integer value can be passed to ease_dollars. any rounding that happens is before it gets there
mhm. yeah i'd have to round it first
i think it's balanced enough giving half the denominator rounded down, max of $20
Does smods stop naneinf??? Why I got -nan 😭
it's a recent bug
Ok I'm going to try turning off all my mods and opening my save to try again
And crash
Oh well
That's okay
anyway new blind
I know in my heart of hearts I got naneinf
Ooh unique idea, I like
Currently got every joker in paint.net and averaging the items
You can see even with the wip that you can see the outlines
@patent shore @novel heron what kind of beer are you thinking of
here's what i got so far
dipper staring at mabel dating the shady zombie guy
not me thinking of mabel from animal crossing 🥀
😭
but dumplings imply the existence of larger more ominous dumples...
are you asking me to do something similar to gros micheal and cavendish 👀
okay idk if its more of a regional disconnect but looking up dumples just brings up dumplings
YES
is it like a plural term or used for particular dumplings
i dont think dumples exist
BUT
the -ing implies that it's a smaller version of an original thing
i see
ill think about it...
yea it's just a joke about "imagine a giant dumpling"
yeah i am taking a massive dump-ling crowd scream sfx
i took a comprise with just calling it hot sauce might have the art based off a brand like tapatio's
fair enough
been seeing that brand lately with like utz's franks hot honey flavoured chips
hello
hi
i don't know if i will include all of them since i still have to come up with a good joker effect, and feel free to suggest more, but nevertheless i appreciate the feedback
two folks in the balatro server suggested some sort of beer (or an alcoholic beverage in general) but not sure what kind to theme off
Joke daniels
jack daniel's is a popular brand thanks for the suggestion, idk if "joke daniels" is where i want it to be at
I don't drink so idk anything
me either
could be related to jack (the suit)
Jack Daniels
Rare
Each scored Jack gives X2 Mult, 1 in 10 chance to self-destruct at the end of the round
might have to tweak the numbers actually lol
what are some good quality of life mods i should get
jokerdisplay, unblind, nextantepreview, cartomancer, handy, saturn
what do you think of this joker concept? the xmult amount and for how many hands can be adjusted, but the idea of basically an ancient joker seltzer
i can do something like 1.25?
should i make this more of a rare or uncommon joker, and if so which values?
gotta love the seltzer synergy
woops let me check that but here's lassi. @forest knoll how do you want to be credited?
balatro,bizzartro,(mod in progress made by @woeful meteor ),Ortalab,Familiar,Nrio Stuff,Kloun
yippee
"metanite64" or "Meta" is good, thanks!
since its a guaranteed chance, should probably do something like jokerdisplay for mail in rebate
polar opposites
Should have put Rob in-between the Jester, and Joey
Tho, I guess that Rob being more a TimeSkip thing gives it its position
what is the calculator mod called?
