My only thing i have to do is school and past that my time is open lmao

[full edge]

Quantum ranks hasn't been implemented better than how it's done by All In Jest, and quantum enhancements are just a big hassle to properly set up, iirc, so I don't think a mod has figured out something more effective than SMODS' own implementation

[lean dune]

quantum enhancements are about as good as they can be with what else we have in smods

to do better in terms of performance, you'd most likely need to trash compat with at least some part of smods features

[karmic compass]

how does quantum ranks like actually works, like mechanically behind the scene

[lean dune]

https://github.com/Steamodded/smods/pull/838 this is the PR we have, tbh I haven't found time to check on it in a few months, not even sure what state it's in anymore

[karmic compass]

im trying to understand what the patch is changing

[frozen vector]

No guarantees on it being readable, but i can damn well try

[karmic compass]

and how that changes interacts with the code that allows quantum ranks

[full edge]

I assume you'd be able to improve the performance by making it less generically useful. If the only quantum enhancement you have is that specific circumstances make cards count as gold, you'd be able to make that more performant pretty well, i suspect

[lean dune]

there's a calc context that asks a bunch of objects what ranks a card should count as that needs to be called whenever that can change

the main change needed from mods is that direct equality comparisons are unable to support that

[lean dune]

depends on how well you know what a gold card is at runtime

[karmic compass]

it does look a lot of effort for effects that usually arent worth it, which is not a slight at the implementation but rather just the concept of quantum ranks tbh

i've had silly ideas like "6s also counts as 9s and vice versa" but quickly realise it's not worth jumping through the hoop for

[lean dune]

another thing is that quantum ranks actually make it harder to evaluate poker hands

[wind turtle]

It doesn't lag as much if you use the file I sent you.

[full edge]

I'm not too fuzzed about quantum enhancements being laggy, because I think it's a difficult design space, but quantum ranks is probably the most obvious one, as far as there being a big want goes

[lean dune]

there's also just more ways for it to get out of hand than there are for enhancements

[karmic compass]

combinatorics moment

[lean dune]

there can be arbitrarily many ranks with an arbitrarily complex structure

but there can also be large hands

[full edge]

Yeah, for sure. I think it's a feature that's just kind of hard for SMODS to implement because SMODS needs to provide the most generic version of it. I'm sure there's smart work arounds you could do for a lot of specific designs that people have in mind, that are less of a problem to implement

[storm forum]

-# Imagine trying to get "The Entire Fucking Deck" poker hand to calculate from a bunch of random cards-

[karmic compass]

though adjacent ideas to that, i'd love to do "6s turns into 9s when scored and vice versa" which is silly and doable

[cloud willow]

they might be able to do something akin to the experimental features where you can set just how generic you need to be

[karmic compass]

however my white whale is if i can figure out how to get the card to physically rotate when scored

[cloud willow]

like you could set if you want it to count for poker hands or not

[lean dune]

not that bad actually

[frozen vector]

Yea, thats fair, bht u wanna try it myself

[karmic compass]

that would enhance the comedy of the card tenfolds

and i think that i'd need patches for

[lean dune]

make a table mapping each available suit-rank combination to a table and insert each selected card to every bucket that it counts as

then check if every bucket is filled

[full edge]

Eh, even as an experimental feature you want to stuff to fully work, of course, even if it sacrifices performance. Though depending on how that quantum ranks PR works, maybe there might be a way to set up some methods that at least make implementing a more specific quantum rank like mechanic possible. No clue how you'd even do that, of course, so I'm just waving my hands through smoke trying to grasp at anything, haha

[karmic compass]

what is quantum enhancement anyway

like what actually does it do

i heard the terms thrown around so much but like what does it do

make all enhancements counts as every other enhancements?

[lean dune]

at heart it's cards being able to count as having multiple enhancements

[full edge]

'all cards held in hand count as steel cards if played hand contains a king' and any effect like that. 'enhanced cards have every enhancement in your deck', if you wanna consider the issues that might pop up from it, haha

[lean dune]

which is implemented as asking all calculating instances for what enhancements a given card should count as when the information of what enhancements a card has is needed

[frozen vector]

Thank you for that idea on the second one..

[lean dune]

which is of course imprecise, there's some caching involved because asking each time would be way too inefficient, but even that is tough to get right

[full edge]

that effect is a good guarantee to basically have your mod not be able to work with a lot of others, haha. It requires enhancements to be designed with it in mind. I think in the past effects like it also were very good at dropping your fps to like 2, but maybe that's a bit better now

[frozen vector]

Who said i would do it via quantum enhancements?

I can fogure it out

Have some faith in me ouch

[full edge]

haha well if you find a better way to do it, make sure to PR it to smods 😛

[frozen vector]

Ill probably be doing it as a part to my mod, but I'd be more than willing to share that and whoever wants can so the PR

[lean dune]

good luck :p

[karmic compass]

i mean i have faith in you but also able to recognise how sisyphean the task is

[frozen vector]

Fair

[karmic compass]

you're basically at the point where you're inventing neon light tubes when everyone is using incandescent bulbs

[frozen vector]

This is true...

[full edge]

I've been around in this community for long enough to know that the issue with features like that isn't that the right person hasn't come around yet, haha

[frozen vector]

If anything its closer to a neon light tube before electricity is around

[frozen vector]

Yea, but im still gonna give it a shot

Regardless of anything

[full edge]

i mean, definitely do

best case scenario, there's a solution that's better than what's around now, and worst case scenario, you've learned stuff

[frozen vector]

True

[rain orbit]

Good news
You can have with basically any mod

Yippee

[karmic compass]

again we wil cheer for you if you succeed but also it will completely be okay if you give up

because everyone else did

[frozen vector]

Mhm mhm

[rain orbit]

What's so advanced that it won't work with a lot of other mods

[frozen vector]

If i succeed, i might as well be god for it, if i fail, oh well shit happens

[rain orbit]

Bro on their .exe arc

[full edge]

I think part of it is that for a lot of designs that'd need quantum enhancements or quantum ranks, there is some alternate effect that has the same vibe but is good enough. For a lot of people that want to solve the problem not because they like the challenge, but because they want a specific idea for a joker to work out, the path of least resistance is often just adjusting the design

[karmic compass]

honestly it might be revolutionary to include a secondary patching exe in your mod

that might be what'll do it

[full edge]

(I scrapped everything that needed quantum enhancements from my mod's design doc 😛 )

[frozen vector]

Ooo....

This could work

[rain orbit]

[frozen vector]

I have some work with that due to making a seed scouting tool that jsed immolate

Used*

[karmic compass]

card rotation tho, like we can flip cards on one axis can smod let us flip on the other two

[frozen vector]

True, but I'd like to compromise as little as possible, if anything, ill just straight up remove it before i change it

[lean dune]

how so

[full edge]

you can rotate the other axes, no?

[frozen vector]

Its possible to have a second exe or dll or such that the game can load with your mod

[storm forum]

feareth.

[lean dune]

I know, and I've done that

I just don't see what it achieves in this context

[frozen vector]

From there, it could be used as a more complicated but more versatile lovely patch

[frozen vector]

Why bro 💀

[lean dune]

lovely is plenty versatile

[formal orchid]

guys do you know why this aint working 🤔

[storm forum]

-# That deck probably could be optimized as to how I make it work, but I have zilch ideas on improvement potentials.

[lean dune]

one thing that would potentially be useful is patching every buffer being loaded, but glob targets are already in a lovely PR

[frozen vector]

I mean, yes absolutely for most things, but in this specific case its questionable

[lean dune]

so what else

what can't lovely do that helps you here

[frozen vector]

Quantum ranks/enhancements/editions

[lean dune]

how?

[frozen vector]

Specifically a better one that smods

[frozen vector]

Thats the part ill have to figure out :3

[lean dune]

you should have something in mind that needs a more powerful patcher than lovely

you tell me what that is, I can't think of anything

[frozen vector]

And thats what im tryna think of

But i dont think lovely can do this very well

Maybe

[lean dune]

what part does lovely fail at?

[frozen vector]

Its possible

[lean dune]

it's extremely powerful

so first think of what it can't do

and no, glob targets wouldn't help you

there isn't an issue of not being able to patch well enough

[frozen vector]

Yea ig

[lean dune]

do tell me if you think of something, but I don't think that's the way

[frozen vector]

I'm just unsure how this would work, and to be done better than smods will be abit complicated

[nimble delta]

Hello is there anyway for me to play mod version of the game in Android phone and if so can anyone teach me how to

[limpid lake]

smods isn't having difficulty with quantum ranks because of lovely or smods limitations
it's having difficulty with quantum ranks because it's a hard problem

[limpid lake]

#📜・modding-rules 4

[frozen vector]

True

[nimble delta]

Goodbye

[frozen vector]

Ill try writing this as maybe like, a smods+lovely thing before i try anything else? Probably written more like a library than anything else

[lean dune]

don't do it without what smods already provides, that much is for sure

[frozen vector]

But just thinking about it, I'm def realizing the issue isnt really the loader

[lean dune]

smods holds together everything you know as ranks in smods

[frozen vector]

Mhm mhm

[lean dune]

about 2% of it is vanilla

and you want nothing to do with the vanilla code concerning that, I should know

it's a hardcoded mess

so do work with the existing ecosystem, not against it :p

[frozen vector]

Mhmm

[lean dune]

Also you maybe shouldn't think of smods as a loader, it's way past that

[frozen vector]

Thats fair

[nimble delta]

You pretty please make an exception for me :3

[frozen vector]

Silence

[nimble delta]

🙁 can I at least know why it's not allowed for me to discuss modding in my phone

[frozen vector]

Or ralk about actual pc modeing

Modding*

[lean dune]

and risk getting punished by mods? rather not. there's other places where it's allowed

[frozen vector]

Indeed

[nimble delta]

Where I would love to know where

[frozen vector]

Not happening

[nimble delta]

That is the only reason why I joined the server to know how I can mod in my phone

[frozen vector]

Find it yourself if you really want

[nimble delta]

That's why I joined the server

[lean dune]

can't tell you but definitely don't try to find the lovely discord

#1214591552903716954 is a place where you're sure not to find it

[frozen vector]

This server has an active rule against it, so, not happening

[nimble delta]

Okay let me read Ward I want to find out a mom that works on my PC and I can stream it on my phone

[limpid lake]

because the mods of the server decided they don't want those discussions on this server

[nimble delta]

Reword it

[lean dune]

we're on thin ice, I'm happy to answer all your questions in the lovely discord that you surely won't find if you read what I said

[limpid lake]

if you want to stream modded balatro from your pc to your phone via steam link, sure you can do that. that's the thing steam link does, is stream games from your pc to your phone

https://store.steampowered.com/remoteplay

[nimble delta]

What do you mean the lovely discord is there any way that you can direct me so I can actually get the answers I want

[lean dune]

I sent a channel link above

you totally won't find it if you follow it

#1214591552903716954 this one

[limpid lake]

you know how mr incredible helps that lady with her insurance?

[neon urchin]

can i mod balatro onto my cat?

[frozen vector]

Lol

[winged prism]

That's you?

[neon urchin]

👀

[bold wagon]

Which mod is the one that changes the Blueprint/Brainstorm sprite to what its copying?

[wanton rapids]

#1288504280239575061

[bold wagon]

thank you

[frozen vector]

Number go up

[wind token]

fixd

[cold rose]

Too op what if you get four invisible jokers smh

[rain orbit]

Morgan order but less useful

[karmic compass]

would you rather 1 dollar back every 5 you spent, or 10 dollar back every 50 you spent

[winged prism]

Would you give me a dollar... Or 5 dollars?

[wind token]

what is that

[rain orbit]

Bizarro chaos the clown
When leaving the shop earn back 25% of money spent

[quartz marlin]

So, 30 echo 7's with lucky 7 double rainbow, a 40x Joker (Whatever retriggers 7's) hooked to a 11x hanging chad will infact crash my game.

Who'd have guessed 😭

i REALLY wanna know what the score would hit but it just wont handle it

[neon urchin]

5 dollars 💸 😊

[winged prism]

WOAGH

[neon urchin]

dont spend it all in one place tips fedora

[woven crag]

i mean the game wont crash because of too many calculations

its probably just cryptid being cryptid

(jank)

[quartz marlin]

to be expected, truly 😭

though i think i made an infinite retrigger loop if hooked works how i think it does with misprint deck so i dont think it would've ever ended anyways

[woven crag]

i dont think retriggers work quite as expected with hook?

i forgot how exactly but i recall it being wierd

[quartz marlin]

was my first time trying it so im not quite sure

[woven crag]

i remember that at least at some point retriggers didnt trigger hook at all

[quartz marlin]

hm maybe it was just the lucky 7 double rainbow mix with the other 40x joker

either way i think that's the highest amount of calculations i've managed to hit lol

[woven crag]

was it like a proper crash with a crash log or did it hard crash to desktop

[quartz marlin]

crash log the second it hit the calculating bit

[woven crag]

i see

actually were you going against the scorch boss blind by any chance

[quartz marlin]

ante 3 small blind 😭

[woven crag]

ah

the scorch just always crashes for whatever reason so thats why im asking

[quartz marlin]

thought i had them all 7's but not quite but this is what the layout was

[frozen vector]

Not me working on a sisephean task in the middle of an english class cause im 4 chapters ahead

[quartz marlin]

Don't ask why i still had trib I genuinely don't know 😭

[woven crag]

triboulet carrying 🔥

[quartz marlin]

no ong they saved me

[frozen vector]

Trib doing work trust

[quartz marlin]

maybe another possible cause was the fact all of these were not echo's when i went into the run and i used like 12 class cards on them

[full edge]

Did it crash to desktop, or did you get a log?

[quartz marlin]

log, i'm not too worried about it just upset i didnt get the score number

[woven crag]

if youre still on Steamodded version 1224c or whatever it was cryptid crashes a lot on there

also you should send the log in #⚙・modding-support

[quartz marlin]

i didnt mange to copy it, would a screenshot be good enough?

[woven crag]

sure

[full edge]

I mean, decent chance that the issue is just a cryptid one, no? Not like it's often in a stable state, after all

[frozen vector]

This^

Cryptid is and has always been jank

[woven crag]

well okay but no point in not getting a solution

[frozen vector]

True

[woven crag]

usually there is SOME fix

[proven aurora]

That happens when you anger the GOAT

[quartz marlin]

yeah that's fair, doesn't make it any less frustrating but i entirely understand </3

[full edge]

Yeah no fair, I just mean that it might be better to drop it on the discord server in that case, hahaha

[woven crag]

did you like

JUST get scalae

[quartz marlin]

oh no i will just gonna drop a screenshot in support then leave it there pretty much

[woven crag]

because i forget if scalae is broken or not

as in code wise

[quartz marlin]

started with it, it was my exotic from the antimatter deck

[woven crag]

ah

[proven aurora]

Are we allowed to ask where to find a certain file? A mod I'm trying to play complains about a missing end in an if statement in function.lua

[full edge]

I'm sure someone'll end up forwarding it if it's a notable find, haha

[woven crag]

yeah?

[full edge]

That's an indication of a bad or conflicting lovely patch. Which mods are you trying to play?

[woven crag]

Why not

[frozen vector]

Love how im going from not understanding lovely patches, to probably the most complex ine i could do

[woven crag]

Send the crash in #⚙・modding-support and youll usually get an answer

[full edge]

All the files get dumped in your mods folder every time you launch btw, and source code is accessible by opening the exe with any zip opening method

[proven aurora]

I think it's called H*ntai Jokers or something like that. It's on my laptop and this is my phone

One of my college friends sent me a link to it from a forum

[frozen vector]

💀

[full edge]

Haha, well, I'm a little out of the loop on the state of the nsfw modding scene, but I suspect that like a lot of the mods on nexus and the likes, they're very outdated. You'll have to find the right smods version for it, and accept you can't run it with any more recent mods

[quartz marlin]

i'm gone for 2 seconds what 😭

[fossil bough]

I can hear this image

[proven aurora]

C C B-flat C G G C F E C

[proven aurora]

Released November 2025

[frozen vector]

Nsfw mod, and me psuedo crashing out over not knowing lovely patches very well, then doing probably the most complex one i could

[quartz marlin]

Oh so it's been a wonderful 2 seconds i've missed 😭

[frozen vector]

Yes

[full edge]

That's not old enough to be an issue, yeah. I'd still check compatibility and try to use the release of smods that was out during the release window.

I'd do a more specific check but I don't want to Google those mods during work hours to figure out if there's any obvious issues, hahaha

[frozen vector]

Pfff

[proven aurora]

I was thinking of going into that file and put the end in myself

I have Notepad++

[quartz marlin]

even outside of work hours i'm not sure how keen most people would be on that

[proven aurora]

Reasonable enough

[frozen vector]

Ik I wouldn't

[full edge]

The end isn't missing in the file, most likely. You'd have to check the lovely patches. Fixable, but more effort

[proven aurora]

I don't know Lua

[full edge]

Haha, I'm an adult, I've googled worse. And I can always close my tabs if it gets too bad 😋 I assume looking at the code won't blast my screen with images though, hahaha

[full edge]

I think fixing it yourself will be difficult then. I'd just look into the other stuff you're running and try and make sure versions are compatible and there aren't any conflicts

[quartz marlin]

Fair enough

[full edge]

Anyway, have I plugged #1340334060597285025 lately?

[woven orchid]

not enough

[frozen vector]

Not eno- damnit

[spare flame]

Is it easy to mod this game

Lowk

[frozen vector]

Make or use?

[full edge]

I don't think I've seen or heard of anyone using the new legendaries I've added

[spare flame]

Make

[woven orchid]

relatively easy for both

[frozen vector]

Use, absolutely not, make, still not bad

[spare flame]

I have c++ knowledge

[woven orchid]

modding in balatro is very freeing

[spare flame]

From pvz modding

[woven orchid]

yeah you should be fine

[full edge]

It's pretty easy. Only starts being difficult if your idea is already inherently difficult haha

[frozen vector]

I second this... TwT

[full edge]

I managed to add some pretty expansive features and weird stuff with my programming experience being some web scrapers and playing ComputerCraft in modded mc, haha. If you've programmed before it's a very low barrier to entry

[frozen vector]

Yooo!!! Computercraft player!!!

[full edge]

I've not seen anyone use Thanos yet, and he's been in the mod for like a month 🙁

[trail berry]

😭

[frozen vector]

Whats he do...?

[full edge]

it's only 5 text boxes, 1 of which is seemingly broken ❤️

(he retriggers stuff)

[frozen vector]

Oh lord

[full edge]

Every superhero joker gets retriggered and gives a retrigger to another joker. Every card with a superhero enhancement retriggers and gives a retrigger to another card in your deck

[vapid silo]

any chance we'll get workshop support so people can upload mods/install them easier?

[frozen vector]

Balatro mod manager is the closest

[woven orchid]

i wouldn’t imagine so

[full edge]

I don't want to say there's 0% chance but I suspect it's close to it

[frozen vector]

Its a 1/1.1e307

[vapid silo]

has it been said as to why he wont or most likely wont? considering TBOI for example does it and it works quite well ;v

[frozen vector]

Just barely less than infinity

[full edge]

counters are a mechanic I added that's a temporary effect that can be put on a card, btw. Which I've also turned into an API mod that people don't use even though I try to convince them that counters are a great design space

[dusty token]

so you're telling me there's a chance

[frozen vector]

I guess, but again, bmm exists

[woven orchid]

while thunk is obviously not against modding i do personally believe he is not directly supportive enough of it to set up the workshop stuff

[full edge]

The way all existing mods work would not be able to exist in the workshop. There's no inherent protections and the set up is very hacky. Balatro modding works based on code injection, which I don't think is something steam worskhop actually allows (Though I might be wrong on that), nor would it be easy to manage or moderate

[tranquil vessel]

established modding scene using lovely, if I recall correctly

[hardy brook]

Hey all. Still working on #1376362000854159471 and i thought i’d tell you my plans:

5 Jokers will be the start of a balancing and appearance of “Post-Game content”. In the future (as long as i continue this) I want to have 5 jokers be PGC.

PGC will be balanced for Ante 9-16 gameplay and will only appear starting in those antes. All rare rarity too.

[vapid silo]

I am not too familiar with the process so I wouldn't know if it's very difficult or a lot of time that needs to be invested for it, I just think it'd be nice just to run some QOL stuff I've seen in some videos etc, like seeing what your blueprint is copying by it mimicking the portrait :v

[full edge]

And if the methods changed, all existing mods would break to a fundamental degree that'd force everything to be rewritten from close to scratch, which would probably just kill the modding scene rather that exists

[hardy brook]

I still want it to be balanced to some degree but it’ll help to keep your endless mode runs going a bit further

[full edge]

modding the game is very easy, though can be a bit scary if you're not used to messing with game files. But there's generally people around that are up to guide you. And as Amo mentioned, the mod manager exists too, though it's not much easier than installing mods yourself

[woven orchid]

files scary but it is easier to mod balatro than most games

on the other side of the coin it is easier to mess up modding balatro compared to most games

[tranquil vessel]

that should become a bit better with zip file support, right?

[woven orchid]

probably

[full edge]

completely forgot I added an actual UI to this joker

probably should only show that once you're actually in the blind

[vapid silo]

It's more the fact that I am lazy and would prefer it to be integrated via workshop because It's just a couple of clicks rather than messing with the files yourself, mod managers are fine too I've used it for other games but only ever for multiplayer purposes ;v

[full edge]

I think workshop support would be something people would like if it was possible in a way that wouldn't be super complicated for the community, but I sadly just don't think that's in the cards

[woven orchid]

i also did not consider but yeah code injection could be a bit of a pitfall

[full edge]

Best case scenario I can imagine for it is something like terraria's modloader being a separate game on steam you can run if you own the game

[normal hollow]

thunk has already talked about it iirc, and he said he talked with people in the community because he wanted to support it but reached the conclusion that there wasnt a way people would be happy with

[vapid silo]

I see, good to know I appreciate the replies and what not!

[full edge]

I think for workshop support to work well you kind of have to realize you want your game to be modable pretty early in development.

[woven orchid]

i’m so hungry i could eat a balatro mod

[normal hollow]

honestly the biggest modding hurdle is lovely being detected as a virus

[frozen vector]

Frrrrrr

[full edge]

I don't think there's a way to really solve that outside of making a version of balatro that supports it from the ground up.

[upbeat kayak]

I really want to port some of my functionalities to Counters when I'm less pressed for time

[unborn plover]

hey guys

[winged prism]

👂

[unborn plover]

It's been a a lot of time since I talked here but I'll let y'all know that I'm still working on my Scienceful mod

[barren vigil]

click the green button

[winged prism]

Okay no don't listen to that

[noble kernel]

Oh

[barren vigil]

download as zip

extract from zip

put folder in Mods

[tranquil vessel]

Mods on github should usually have a "Releases" section somewhere on the right side where you can download the mod

[winged prism]

In most cases github repos have releases, that's preferable way to download shit

[noble kernel]

I see

[spare geyser]

depending on the mod they might have a thing here if you scroll down after clicking that i should provide download options

[barren vigil]

WHITE MODE AHHHHHH

[winged prism]

Why are you doing this to yourself

I clicked the latest release

[spare geyser]

doing what to myself?

[winged prism]

Zip

[noble kernel]

Then do I have to put that somewhere?

[tranquil vessel]

do you have lovely yet?

[noble kernel]

[barren vigil]

its just a faster way lol but yeah

[winged prism]

The button with a windows icon

And R

Together

[tranquil vessel]

it's also likely to cause issues with mod compatibility

[noble kernel]

Okay

Yuh

I see a file called lovely

Is that useful

[tranquil vessel]

you mean folder right

[noble kernel]

Yeah

[tranquil vessel]

yeah that's good

[winged prism]

Extract the zip into the mod folder if you opened it

That should be iit

[toxic cloud]

since you're on BMM, you can also click the green folder button to get straight into %appdata%/Balatro/Mods without Windows key + R shenanigan

[full edge]

it's not faster, more so a way to increase chances of mod compatibility issues. It only works if a mod aligns its main branch with their releases, which a lot of mods don't do. It's a pretty common issue that pops up when inexperienced people try to set up mods for the first time

[tranquil vessel]

neat

[noble kernel]

Er

What's that mean😭

[winged prism]

Open the zip file you got. If there's only one folder in there just drop it into the mods folder

[noble kernel]

I'll try ig

[tranquil vessel]

if you go into the zip, drag the Banner-1.2.1 folder out of the zip, into the Mods folder

[noble kernel]

I copy and pasted the folder into the mods section

Will that work

😭

[winged prism]

Should

[tranquil vessel]

yeah copy paste is fine too

[rain orbit]

As long as it ain't nested

[noble kernel]

Dunno what that means twin

[woven crag]

If you took the folder out of the zip then it wont be nested

[winged prism]

It shouldn't be

[rain orbit]

When the folder is inside another folder for no reason

[noble kernel]

Oh yeah it's low-key doing that

[rain orbit]

If you extract the zip then it shouldn't

[winged prism]

Are you sure it's ACTUALLY doing that

[noble kernel]

😬😬

I'm not sure

I'll js load up balatro and pray it works

[noble kernel]

It looks like it's probably working

[winged prism]

Also you have discord on your laptop, don't take pictures with your phone
You probably have a print screen button, and if you don't you can do Win+S

[noble kernel]

Twin

[winged prism]

Win+shift+S sorry

[noble kernel]

This is my first ever laptop and I got it yesterday

😭

[toxic cloud]

rip

[rain orbit]

nwiT

[noble kernel]

Literally all I have is steam and balatro

And discord

[tranquil vessel]

yo grats

[rain orbit]

Not even Google???

[noble kernel]

No

No google

[winged prism]

And win+shift+s is default windows bullshittery, just do that from now on 😭

[rain orbit]

I ain't raise no edge sympathizer

[toxic cloud]

not all laptops have print screen key

but it still works iirc

albeit limited to capturing the entire screen, obviously

[winged prism]

That's why I said probably :/

[winged prism]

???

[dusty token]

win+prtscr captures the whole screen

win+shift+s selects area

[toxic cloud]

win+shift+s has more options yk

[rain orbit]

Thanks noise

[dusty token]

yw wikypedia4

[winged prism]

But like. Just press prtscr it will have cropping

[dusty token]

🤷‍♂️

whatever

[toxic cloud]

it doesn't for me lmao

[rain orbit]

I am bizarrtro bizarrtrez in the city and wikypedia in the country

[winged prism]

Interesting

[toxic cloud]

simply press PrtSc to capture the entire screen

[rain orbit]

(Elite ball knowledge required)

[tranquil vessel]

only if you enable prtscr to remap to windows' screenshot I think

[toxic cloud]

ah, that

[winged prism]

Maybe ig

Don't recollect doing that but this head is full of holes

[toxic cloud]

yea, found it

[rain orbit]

Ew copilot

[toxic cloud]

I don't even use that

left it on default

[tall temple]

Seeing as how Brainstorm has not been updated since September 2024, are there any similar mods/forks (is that the right word?) of it that are being updated/maintained and potentially have greater functionality (big ask on the last part, but no harm in at least asking and seeing what is out there 😅)?

[winged prism]

Muscleflood

[toxic cloud]

GreenNeedle

[tall temple]

Assuming those are responses to me, I can't seem to find those mods anywhere

[winged prism]

No idea about Saga but I shitposted 😭

[open linden]

is there a mod that lets you see what locked items are without unlocking them yet?

[winged prism]

Where is fun in that?
I don't think so

[open linden]

dont wanna waste my time unlocking things im never gonna use

[tall temple]

:-(

😅

[eternal portal]

oh my god they locked the shrimp thread

why would you ever do that

that looks SO bad

[formal orchid]

careful

[dusty token]

where did you know that

clams?

[woven crag]

clams

[dusty token]

oh

[dusty token]

spread like fire i guess

[woven crag]

Moderation is extremely difficult

Guys

[drowsy parrot]

moderation is difficult do you know how hard it is to lift a finger and press it down

[eternal portal]

i mean what if it's a really big and heavy button

like you gotta put your whole shoulder into it

to be fair

[formal orchid]

the big red button that glows

which solves all your moderation issues

[eternal portal]

maybe someone just wanted a coffee and got confused too

i wouldve gotten confused dealing with these buttons

[trail berry]

never heard of the shrimp thread until now but the goat is dead

[sick matrix]

i cant even find it

oh nvm

[eternal portal]

yeah i think you would have to find a link to it, or a forward from there

its just in the shadow realm otherwise

[sick matrix]

i found it in the searches

it doesnt have an h in its spelling of shrimp

[eternal portal]

im just genuinely so confused

[neon orchid]

It was radioactive shrimp

[eternal portal]

usually threads get locked when like a total shitstorm happens in there

but here it was just a moderator talking about recent bans

if a moderator talks in your thread about anything, is the thread doomed for lockdown?

i really dont get it

[dusty token]

the radioactive shrimp is true all along

radioactive shrimp

adjacent jokers become radioactive

[eternal portal]

i guess clams are better than shrimp

thats the lesson im gonna learn from this whole situation

[eternal portal]

what woulkd a shripe joker do

surely a food joker right?

[balmy lily]

either a summon or food joker

summon as in its spawned from another joker

[eternal portal]

are there any card desctruction food jokers?

what if it was kinda like Trading Card but for, say, 5 blinds

[ember flicker]

mini square fat

here's some ui. what do you think each element does? what is the purpose of this menu? (gathering feedback)

[dusty token]

ram prices are still on skyrocket

[west hill]

auto reroller?

[stable juniper]

ah close ^^

this is a menu for Death Note, letting you set a card to appear negative

does the layout make sense?

[dusty token]

i probably know what each element does

idk what it does

the set thing

[stable juniper]

alright coolio ^^

[stable juniper]

ah I'll change that to say ENTER instead

[west hill]

I don't like the recent names buttons, makes the window look unbalanced

blue box is text input?

jokers an dconsumables buttons open collection esque pages?

hmmm

I think there are too many ways of doing the same thing

makes UI look more complicated for no extra functionality

[stable juniper]

ah kay

I see what you mean

[west hill]

three ways of doing the same thing, just pick the best way and make that look good imo

[cloud willow]

are you able to put elements inside of text box uis?

[stable juniper]

I feel the recent buttons are too useful to remove, what if I added tabs?

[cloud willow]

autocomplete

[west hill]

which way do you find yourself using most?

[stable juniper]

nah 😭 too much for Balatro ui jank

[stable juniper]

it sort of depends. for things I know how to spell, text

for things I can't spell, collection

(or for long names)

[cloud willow]

would be a fun challenge

[stable juniper]

for quickly changing between names (ie. when opening zodiac packs or rerolling), recent

[cloud willow]

id do it if I had something to use it on

[stable juniper]

would require text highlighting

[cloud willow]

how so?

I cant think of why it would

[stable juniper]

how are you thinking it'd be implemented?

[cloud willow]

either a drop down like discords (or rather a drop up in their case) or having grayed out text after the search

[stable juniper]

oh I see

makes sense

(brb btw)

[cloud willow]

and I've done the grayed out one with html so I vaguely know how to do that

[eternal portal]

great news, now you cant do that either, it got archived or sth, or maybe just full on deleted

[sick matrix]

damn

L

[eternal portal]

i still have no idea why they did that, nuking the entire thread looks way worse than whatever happened in that thread

so confused as to why they decided to do that

[formal orchid]

hello there

It’s just a temperance

but realistically how often is temperance actually close to $50

[formal orchid]

i wonder

[frozen vector]

in my runs? i usually get around 35-40$ temperances

[long hare]

no

[loud pulsar]

do you play lategame or i am i just ass

[frozen vector]

both.

sounds about right

How do I represent a full house of face cards on planets??

help I'm lost

[neon orchid]

K, Q, or J

Preferably no more than 2 Kings

[unkempt current]

Do I just put K

And Q

[neon orchid]

Any combination

Though I like jacks

[unkempt current]

This was my previous idea
I used face cards from pareidolia
But I thought it wasn't obvious enough

Not sure why I thought of that

[unkempt current]

Wait I meant the letters

Do I just put the letter K

[neon orchid]

Do QKQKQ

unless I’m misunderstanding

[unkempt current]

I think you are
Because I was talking about this

[neon orchid]

Yeah that’ll do

What’s the hand again

Maybe that’ll help

[unkempt current]

Blaze house
(a full house full of face cards)

[neon orchid]

Yeah put some Q for queens for it to show its all face cards (at least that’s what I think it means)

[unkempt current]

With a yummy planet

[neon orchid]

Tastes like a ferrero

[tardy sigil]

nearly done the first 3 pages..

[unborn plover]

Holy shit

nice

very nice!

[rose prairie]

Thats great

Thoughts and or critisism on this joker, making a vanilla style mod.

[tardy sigil]

thats a toughie, since if you're gaining chips on the joker you're likely going to get a higher score and then gain chips to get a higher score etc.

the idea is neat though

and the arts cool too

[rose prairie]

yea, it is pretty good at getting you to the mid game, not all by itself, but once you get into the mid game and you are pivoting or trying to grind money through hands it starts to fall off

[tardy sigil]

i think you should at the very least lose more chips than you gain

and it should say lose +5 chips

hee hee

[rose prairie]

why loose +5 chips, that makes the card a little bit confusing no?

[tardy sigil]

not really 10 - (+)5 = 5

[rose prairie]

I understand but the + might make it confusing

[tardy sigil]

it doesnt really matter but it is the "standard"

[rose prairie]

This better?

[tardy sigil]

10 might be a bit much, give it a test, see how it feels

[rose prairie]

It feels fine so far, tho once you go into the negatives, it can sometimes take a bit to get out if you dont have many good hands, but once you buy another joker it feels pretty balenced

[eternal portal]

maybe instead of lose +10 chips just say -10 chips or something?

please do not say lose plus number

either lose number or minus number

i beg

[tardy sigil]

you should say lose + number

[tardy sigil]

FYUCK

[eternal portal]

ice cream does not say lose +5 chips

[tardy sigil]

killing myself right now

fuckkkk

[spare token]

no

[tardy sigil]

@rose prairie never follow my advice ever again

[spare token]

thats bad for your health

@rose prairie always follow my advice ever again

my fucking mod is FULL of lose +number uggghhhhhhhh

[proven aurora]

How would you suggest learning Lua?

[main path]

Do you have any programming experience at all

Prior to lua

If not id suggest trying to make some other simple lua programs to figure out how loops, tables, if statements, and the such work

One example that comes to mind is a program that creates a bunch of random addition questions and prompts for input
If you know how loops, if statements, and tables work, i think youll be pretty successful at starting up your own mod

If you do have programming experience, the Lua Reference Manual (which you can google) should have enough examples to give you an intuition for how Lua syntax is

Another thing is that Lua is extremely similar to Python in how types, functions, and objects are handled

[rose prairie]

Fire art

[rose prairie]

Its funny that I did that as in my next test run with it I saw the green joker and yeah

[frozen vector]

i shouldn't have said a word.

it immediately stopped working properly and broke

[dapper root]

just realized that in cryptid you can create the pointer (gives any card of your choosing other than exotic jokers) card with itself for some reason, which puts it into your consumable slot which lets you copy it with perkeo

you can get infinite of anything you want 😭

[dense egret]

average cryptid run

[dapper root]

yeah i have a run where my highest hand score is ee16k

[rose prairie]

This is the joker now, any thoughts or critisism?

[normal hollow]

this is the joker now, feel old yet?

i dont like win more jokers tbh

[fair stag]

can too many mods cause the game to crash

[dapper root]

the game finally crashed for the first time

[normal hollow]

not by themselves but there's a higher likelihood that two of them are not compatible in some way

[toxic cloud]

I think Sagatro is starting to get invasive now

might conflict with AikoShen

[fair stag]

why do some mods say steammodded is missing while other mods needing steammodded work fine

[balmy lily]

yes

[forest knoll]

some mods require a specific version of smods or a range of versions

[balmy lily]

because of https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e8HRTlkGD4Q with two or more of the mods

[toxic cloud]

I don't think you should let it go negative

[fair stag]

is steammodded updated frequently

[normal hollow]

every two months or so

although we just got a hotfix

[long hare]

goated song

[proven aurora]

C++ and Python

[dapper root]

TRIPLE E'S YES

[main path]

Okay you should be more than ready to tackle Lua
For the most part Lua and Python are similar
The hardest part about Lua imo is getting used to the fact that Lua doesnt have a proper array or list type, because tables are pretty much the only data type in Lua with object-like properties in terms of memory and references
Lua doesnt even have a class keyword, but Lua gimmicks allow tables to recreate the basic features of classes
Reference manual is here
https://www.lua.org/pil/contents.html

[proven aurora]

10^10^(1.452x10^6)

[main path]

Tables are treated as hashmaps

[proven aurora]

Ok. Good to know. Thanks

[main path]

But Lua tables can be endowed with metamethods that can give them abilities beyond normal hashmaps

That wont be relevant for modding Balatro though

Unless youre doing something incredibly weird/wonky

[main path]

Also while im at it
Heres the SMODS (the Balatro modding API) docs
https://github.com/Steamodded/smods/wiki

[proven aurora]

Thank you!

[main path]

Its currently incomplete but it should cover all the necessary features for making decks, jokers, stakes, blinds, and such

[fair stag]

what does it mean when the error says a mod tried to compare a number to a table

[normal hollow]

that you should replace talisman for amulet

[fair stag]

why is that

[normal hollow]

because it's talisman but doesn't compare number to table

[fair stag]

does it also have animation skipping

[normal hollow]

yes, its talisman

https://github.com/nh6574/VanillaRemade/wiki#why-do-i-get-attempt-to-compare-number-with-table-when-talisman-is-installed

[azure dagger]

Amulet:

Talisman but better

[tawdry apex]

If I get the game speed mod mid run will my run still work? forgot to do it before starting the naninf run

[azure dagger]

It should work.

[tawdry apex]

is there a way to back up runs in case it doesnt save/gets corrupted?

[frigid mica]

I’ve only now learned about this conundrum

If I am supposed to make art for myself, what will happen if I’m the only one who appreciates my own art?

[normal hollow]

yes it should be in the folder one up from the mods folder

it should be named 1/2/3 depending on the profile

[rain orbit]

What is it called when a joker updates or something and displays a little message

Kinda like or

[stable juniper]

message

(internal name of that feature)

[rain orbit]

[tawdry apex]

is there a mod that just insta skips played hand animations?

[formal orchid]

Handy

[rare schooner]

Is there a way to enable animations? I don't have talisman on, just "All in jest"

[rain orbit]

It'd be cool if someone made sounds for -mult and ÷mult, even just reversing the sounds would be good enough for me

[neon urchin]

yeah

[formal orchid]

play my mod

[toxic cloud]

also play my mod

[unkempt current]

-# play my mod too

[winged prism]

I too am in this channel

[rare schooner]

does this joker not work? I thought it would update after every sold joker

[main path]

breakingchains

Scrolling UI

[toxic cloud]

noice

I mean, that belongs to the forbidden knowledge

[main path]

i lost my sense of sanity while developing my mod a while ago
some forbidden knowledge wouldnt hurt

[frigid mica]

where's the discussion link for "hooking"

<@&1133519078540185692>

I forgot how to hook.

[toxic cloud]

this

[rancid nexus]

i think descending notes would work well for -mult

this a fair joker to create a challenge for?

[fair stag]

is there a mod that lets you search for decks

[toxic cloud]

there isn't
Galdur overhauls the run setup UI, making deck selection far easier, that's the closest thing

[hardy brook]

Okay so i have an interesting question. Obviously i don’t want people to start arguments or anything but what’s one mod that you can’t recommend to anyone else.

(Try and be creative)

My example. 1.B.0 of Parallel Update. Why? Because it’s not out yet

[limpid lake]

i don't recommend polterjens to people
it's famous enough without my help

[lament talon]

got a pretty good hypnotic deck run

[woven orchid]

i can't recommend people my mod aqu because it's just bad

[toxic cloud]

man

[full edge]

I can't recommend people #1340334060597285025 because it's too innovative. It'd make all other mods feel dull in comparison.

[woven orchid]

thank you Ice

[full edge]

What's your favorite Kino feature, Lily?

[woven orchid]

sorry i don't play Balatro i'm just a poser

[full edge]

Damn

Caught in the act

When are you dropping Valk2rri?

[woven orchid]

it will come out

[celest copper]

Balatro says I have 2 installations of smods but I can’t find any, how do I fix this?

[full edge]

Can you show your mods folder?

[celest copper]

Where do I find that? It’s been a while since I’ve don’t this

[toxic cloud]

press Windows key + R and type %appdata%\Balatro\Mods

[celest copper]

Thanks for the help

[lean dune]

whoa there you can't expose the entire mod dev community just like that

[celest copper]

how do i reinstall lovely?

[toxic cloud]

replace version.dll with the new one

[celest copper]

i mean where do i go to get a new one

[toxic cloud]

https://github.com/ethangreen-dev/lovely-injector/releases/latest

[celest copper]

thanks

How do I fix this error?

[toxic cloud]

remove smods zip from your Mods folder

[celest copper]

i dont have a zipped one in there

[toxic cloud]

show me your Mods folder

[toxic cloud]

if you don't know where it is, this

[toxic cloud]

at this point I recommend updating smods, and some other mods too

[celest copper]

ok

[formal orchid]

Which version of my mod r ypu using

also thanku for playing it

[celest copper]

its ok

[celest copper]

its from the 24th of the 11th

last year

[formal orchid]

Isee latest version requires the latest smods so i thought maybe that was the issue

Also brainstorm is known to cause issues with smods, due to it being very outdated

[celest copper]

ill get rid of that one then

[formal orchid]

If none of the mods has issues with it, i also recommend updating everything

[celest copper]

ok

I updated smods and now the error is different so I’ll just update everything

[unkempt current]

that lags too

[toxic cloud]

is quantum enhancement enabled on your side

that's known to impact performance

[unborn plover]

The Scienceful mod returns from the Development grave to bring new a NEW mechanic!
Chemical cards and the mix Experimentum card!

the better chemical cards have greater effects than the standard ones but they're pretty unstable and tend to be destroyed or reset

[toxic cloud]

bold music choice for the clip there

why CI5 boss theme

[unborn plover]

cuz it goes hard

[toxic cloud]

makes sense Ig

[unborn plover]

now I'll need to make some Experimentum booster packs and then I'll test a few things in the mod and then....
it's release public time

actually I have to give a few credits first

[west hill]

What mods are you running?

fortunately I dont need to do all this, you will use my mod anyway

play my mod...

we're balling

what if I refuse

[latent crescent]

your choice

[spiral blade]

i'm just joking

still it's thanks to ur mod was able to get what I got off the ground

[tardy sigil]

McBain (uncommon)

• destroy all played face cards, get $1 at the end of the round for every 2 face cards destroyed

[unborn plover]

holy shit you did a great job with Macbain's sprite!

[granite forum]

everything going smooth

my favoritre

[cloud willow]

hmm what else should I do with sounds

[ornate bone]

smh my neo silver deck is breakin the game.

because it's meant to be a sequel to the unused silver deck by giving you a random consumable and a random joker.

but it just can't wrap it's head around the idea of giving out a random consumable.

hell my mod itself is breakin the shit out of the game

between certain sounds not working

and the brick block enhancement being a pain in the ass to get working again

It's safe to say I'm not fuckin touching joker forge ever again.

once the april fools release of my mod is done I'm gonna be tryna get a dev team together so I can move as far away from jokerforge as humanly possible

[winged prism]

😭

[frigid mica]

What if playstack made a real spectral pack containing spectral cards

[keen quail]

gl

[tardy sigil]

MADE SANTA JOKER WORK FINALLY!!!!!!!!!!!

[strong obsidian]

A second resprite has hit the Aikoyori Joker.

[hard plank]

i mean more like third

[unborn plover]

without white outline or with?

which one looks better?

(maybe without outline but I'm not sure what y'all think about rn)

[rain orbit]

I still need to make bizarro packs and inverse packs

However I am bad at making booster packs

[unborn plover]

oh, I see

[tardy sigil]

[wanton surge]

sorry what

right...

😭

What on earth?

[neon orchid]

Why is that the color scheme

[wanton rapids]

trance

[neon orchid]

my trance would be broken

[frigid mica]

Ok, so I’m in Steam

There’s a sale

I hear everybody glazing rainworld to the edges of the universe.

[wanton surge]

ok so I apparently banned all of the other hands

which is funny

[frigid mica]

has any of the biggest balatro streamers figured out how to use the ace part of crash?

i don't want murphy to unknowingly use loadstring out of nowhere.

[rain orbit]

Play balatro

[frigid mica]

ok

[full edge]

I don't think Murphy'll willingly launch cryptid, or end up using a crash card

[rain orbit]

Murphy should play bizarrtro

[full edge]

Wheel it

[frigid mica]

i'm just worried of one scenario

when he gets to my mod and finds the loadstring card

[rain orbit]

What does loadstring do again

[full edge]

If there's a card in your mod that you don't want to show on a stream, ask yourself why it's in the mod, honestly

[frigid mica]

because i thought it would be funny to give somebody free access to sandbox mode but leave them clueless on how to use it unless they learn it

[full edge]

My main worry is that Murphy used the wheel and it lands on a balatro mod 🤮

[full edge]

So why is that an issue, then?

Isn't that exactly what you intend for it to be?

[frigid mica]

i-...

yeah...

[full edge]

What makes Murphy special in that you don't want him to use it, compared to any other player?

[rain orbit]

Mfs when the streamer doesn't play the exact way they wanted them to play:

[frigid mica]

idk, i was just worried or something

also after using the card, you also get +1 ante and inversed balance.

[full edge]

If you think something would be confusing or a bad look if it happens with your mod on a stream, ask yourself why you would be okay with that happening in a non-streamer's run

[frigid mica]

i forgot to add a warning.

[karmic compass]

balatro but the only hands are high card, higher card, and highest card

[full edge]

A warning that tells you to not use the card?

[frigid mica]

no, it's "good luck figuring out how to use it"

[frigid mica]

what the fuck

67% votes on Even Steven we stay on top

[rain orbit]

It says to pick 2

[frigid mica]

steven odd

[polar oyster]

2 is even number...

[full edge]

Yeah I guess you want to indicate that that's the goal if you don't want people to assume it's just bad design

[rain orbit]

[rain orbit]

I know what y'all are trying to do but y'all ain't even doing it right

Steven odd is the odd one and todd even is the even one

[frigid mica]

this is probably my single most powerful card in the mod if used properly.

[rain orbit]

What does it mean inversed balanced

[woven crag]

Money i assume

[frigid mica]

negative or positive money depending on if you're in debt or not

[woven crag]

win_game() :troll

[frigid mica]

time to learn some lua everybody

[full edge]

So what does it do?

[frigid mica]

also the debuffs

[full edge]

Oh so you can run commands. That seems very straight forward for how obtuse you are in its description

[frigid mica]

the catch is that most players don't know yet how to code, so this is their time to learn

[full edge]

I mean sure

[wanton rapids]

yeah i feel that this description is a bit too vague

[frigid mica]

i should release a quick fix

[full edge]

Does a tooltip change need a quick fix?

[frigid mica]

i released the update days ago not having changed the description.

i thought being vague about the card was gonna make it look a bit too risky for players to use.

[full edge]

Still not sure whether you want people to actually use jt

[frigid mica]

i do

here's the description change

[full edge]

But also, I wouldn't worry about Murphy using it, because I can't imagine he'd do anything with it besides a print statement

[hard plank]

insta win

[formal orchid]

win_game()

[hard plank]

also you can do multiple commands

[full edge]

Running commands seems so inherently uninteresting to me that I don't know of any fun ways to even use it

[frigid mica]

the point of my mod isn't really to be sandbox mode, it's to just flex my art.

[formal orchid]

makes sense

[frigid mica]

i said that a couple times

[full edge]

I'm not sure I follow

[frigid mica]

but really im not a programmer, i'm an artist at heart

[full edge]

The goal isn't to be a sandbox mode? This card is a sandbox mode, no?

[wanton rapids]

i mean it is literally equivalent to "win the run and get naneinf dollars and get literally every joker" so

[neon orchid]

Money equals vigintillion

I love money

Think of all the poverty that can be ADDED with a vigintillion dollars

[inland plover]

programmer art vs artist code

[frigid mica]

well, i was scared somebody was gonna point out that winning would be pointless if you're just gonna use 1 card to win

[full edge]

I'm still not sure I follow. But that's fine

[frigid mica]

ok well, where are you going with this?

[toxic cloud]

golden clip, I love it

[formal orchid]

was there when it happened

goated mechanic

[full edge]

I mean that I don't know what you mean with not being a sandbox mode in this case. But I think part of that is also that your preference is a lot more bignum than mine

[main path]

RIP

[frigid mica]

the point of my mod?
