[hard plank]

hi ghostsalt

thank you a lot for earlier

[latent crescent]

salty ghost appeared

[stable juniper]

yessss no problemo

[stable juniper]

[latent crescent]

today is a day

[limpid lake]

[hard plank]

-# also i did push a "small" fix

[stable juniper]

:3

[stable juniper]

nicenice ^^

[hard plank]

which should fix the challenge thingy

[stable juniper]

schweet

[hard plank]

i didn't even know that was broken lol

so actually a good catch

[stable juniper]

das what testing is for :3

[mortal pivot]

ik
just i cant even remember when did u started advertising like this

[hard plank]

ever since i made the mod

[thorn fog]

Hey, so I asked this earlier today, but how do you change the face card textures? I found an Undertale mod that changes all of the face cards, and I'd like to use them!

[stable juniper]

Play Phanta Today!

[stable juniper]

look into Malverk :3

it makes the process super easy

[thorn fog]

What's Malverk-

[stable juniper]

wait

wait scratch that

[thorn fog]

-# Forgive me, I know nothing about modding Balatro

[stable juniper]

look into SMODS.DeckSkin

[mortal pivot]

I was guessing

[stable juniper]

all good! I don't have the time to teach u it, so you'd be better off asking #💻・modding-dev

[hard plank]

I'll add ghostsalt to the credits too

[winged prism]

If you found an actual mod then it probably should be on the same screen with the vanilla skins

[latent crescent]

Doc will play Smallpox today

[lost bolt]

im in the torture (aseprite) chamber

[thorn fog]

It's not a mod necessarily (I think)-

https://gamebanana.com/mods/591945

[hard plank]

gamebanana 🥀

[winged prism]

That certainly looks like a mod

[hard plank]

i have ptsd from back when i mod fnf

[thorn fog]

Hey, GameBanana was the only place that had a decent UT mod that didn't just replace the cards with a sprite

(Unlike a certain Sonic skin mod)

[winged prism]

Gamebanana is such an enigma for me

[thorn fog]

I used to do stuff for Mario's Madness

[winged prism]

I do not understand why some communities just decide to use this

[lean dune]

🎮

[hard plank]

I'm sorry I'm too oldgen for ts

[thorn fog]

Ah, that's alright. Basically, Mario's Madness is a Sonic.exe like FNF mod but for Mario.

Really high quality

[lost bolt]

making balatro art has taught me im a dumbass what do you mean i didnt know that it was called a batting helmet

[hard plank]

-# also for the record i read your bio i know what it says

[thorn fog]

What does my bio say?

[wicked jasper]

it's a shame it was discovered that mario's madness unbeatable used ai for chromatics 😔

[hard plank]

if you translate this you wasted your time

[undone oriole]

yea 🥀

[thorn fog]

And you certainly did!

[winged prism]

Yeah okay that's definitely a mod
Read installation segment on this page
https://github.com/Steamodded/smods

[hard plank]

i did not in fact translate it

[prime snow]

i honestly think it's never going to end

[hard plank]

i "understood" it

[thorn fog]

That works too-

[hard plank]

actually no that made me sound like I'm fluent in Japanese which isn't the case

[thorn fog]

Okay, ty!

[thorn fog]

I mean, did you SEE the commercial? Those voices were so chopped.

[hard plank]

you should play my mod too it allows you to do anything

[storm forum]

[thorn fog]

I think I'm still subbed to her

[hard plank]

with great power comes great all consumables are permanently debuffed

[thorn fog]

Okay, real talk. If you had to make me a Joker, what would I do?

[hard plank]

uhm

[prime snow]

lose as soon as u buy it

[hard plank]

uhm

[azure dagger]

uhm

[thorn fog]

Maybe have that as a 1 in 100 chance

[prime snow]

lmao

[storm forum]

Something to do with Aces because of glasses.

[hard plank]

flips all hearts drawn but gains mult per hearts played but not scored

anyway

please

[thorn fog]

Oooh

That's an interesting effect

[hard plank]

i need people to play my mod my shareholders are next to me right now and they are not happy with the retention

[thorn fog]

I'll download it when I get home

[winged prism]

Uhhh I don't know anything about you so I'll have to assume that I didn't unlock that one yet

[thorn fog]

I mean, if it helps, I really like Japanese culture, and often associate myself with sakura/cherry blossom trees

[storm forum]

🗒️ #⚙・modding-general message

[hard plank]

[winged prism]

[hard plank]

[winged prism]

[undone oriole]

[hard plank]

[rain orbit]

[frigid furnace]

My mod has upcoming content that will definitely be added at some point in the future

[hard plank]

yeah my mod has miku

[winged prism]

Yotsuba and Azumanga Daioh

[hard plank]

ado is planned

[storm forum]

mod hah dom

[frigid furnace]

does your mod have teto

[hard plank]

my mod needs to have more mechanics than oblivion

[hard plank]

yes

[frigid furnace]

Wait is that how you spell "does"

[hard plank]

yes

[frigid furnace]

I legit spontaneously just forgot

Ok good

[hard plank]

happens

[frigid furnace]

Epic

[hard plank]

_ _

-# inb4 it already does

[frigid furnace]

It probably does but I haven't been counting

ovn akyrs crossmod when

[winged prism]

I shopslop

Shopkeep shopslop

[hard plank]

when ovn comes out

I'll add a shop

[frigid furnace]

but it is out; as a demo, but it's available

[hard plank]

and a game defining feature

[winged prism]

Oh no

[hard plank]

more consumables

more random bullshit

[frigid furnace]

I wanna get back to work on ovn but I have like 3 major bugs that I cant fix because they dont cause crashes

And I have zero idea how to fix them

And one of the bugs is just a fundamental issue with the mod's main gimmick

So that's fun

[rain orbit]

So apparently ronaldo is in a fatal fury game

As a fighter

[hard plank]

all of these are wip

[thorn fog]

I'd need to make my own suit for this, but here's a potential effect;

Every time a Sakura card is scored, gain x2 mult. Gain 0.25x mult per Tarot Card sold.

[hard plank]

except first 2 and 3 to last on top row

i don't like making custom suits lowk

[thorn fog]

Is it difficult?

[hard plank]

it makes the game less

uhm

it make the game feel less coherent imo

[winged prism]

Gain X2 on a card scored?????

[hard plank]

not at all

[frigid furnace]

Not difficult code-wise but you gotta do a lot to make the concept work

[thorn fog]

It's just an idea. Granted it's unbalanced, but so are most mods.

[hard plank]

the suit is not difficult

i avoid adding new suits and ranks

by definition you could call my pure cards new suit and rank

but it doesn't behave like a traditional suit or rank

[thorn fog]

I see.

[frigid furnace]

It's like "suitless" and "rankless" right?

[thorn fog]

What would your suggestion be?

[winged prism]

Uh

Well I mean

[thorn fog]

-# also idk if the 7 of Sakuras rolls off the tongue nicely. Might do 7 of Cherries or sm

[frigid furnace]

7 of Sakuras kinda goes hard tho

[thorn fog]

The King of Sakuras

-# Eh, it does work.

[frigid furnace]

Also it's about as bad as 7 of Diamonds imo

That is, not that bad

[winged prism]

Probably just give a bit of XMult when a card of the suit is scored? Gaining XMult just via scoring is a lot, especially in such a big number

[thorn fog]

Maybe this could be the symbol?

(Idk if that looks too close to Hearts, tho)

[hard plank]

yeah

it doesn't really contain a suit

[frigid furnace]

Resembles hearts too closely, maybe sideways?

[hard plank]

I'll give you some technical details

[thorn fog]

Or maybe include the entire flower?

[hard plank]

the card still has both suit and rank

but there is a card property that is set

[winged prism]

I would say try to get a shape on pixel art, just so you know what you can fit while making it look good

[hard plank]

i would flip this sideways to help with shape recognition

because that looks a bit like hearts

[frigid furnace]

Makes sense

[hard plank]

if you've seen pure cards

[lost bolt]

what if you flipped it horizontally and it shot bullets upwards

[hard plank]

suits don't give you chips

[frigid furnace]

that's a clever detail

[winged prism]

Like that small club is just 11x11 px

[thorn fog]

So 11x11 should be my maximum?

[frigid furnace]

Yes, for style consistency (and practical reasons)

[winged prism]

I mean, these are the small symbols on the corners of the cards, middle ones are bigger

[hard plank]

is this to me

[thorn fog]

For the aces?

[hard plank]

i just think ranks giving chips makes sense

[winged prism]

For number ranks too

[thorn fog]

Right-

[frigid furnace]

Yes, I just think that personally I would have missed that detail

Im suddenly reminded I need to update a bunch of my mods to implement that cool smods feature where the mod icon can be shown even if the mod isnt loaded

[winged prism]

That's a thing?

[frigid furnace]

Yeah, I dont remember how to do it but PlayLog already uses it

[normal hollow]

yeah you put it in the metedata

meta

[winged prism]

Sick

[storm forum]

...just need to wait for next release so that animated mod icons through metadata actually animate. 😛

[frigid furnace]

Thinking now: I feel like there's a lot that could be played around with regarding pure ranks and suits - not necessarily a base mod suggestion (I could explore this as a cross-mod thing for TIWMIG) but what if pure ranks could be used to create the Minor Arcana or something

[thorn fog]

How's this?

Ah wait holdon

[frigid furnace]

Start with base Arcana cards "The Cup", "The Wand" etc, then combine with a pure rank to upgrade the Arcana card's values

[frigid furnace]

Should definitely be sideways

I think after that you have a visually distinct suit icon

[winged prism]

Wouldn't that kinda look off tho

[thorn fog]

Yeah, ibisPaintX likes to distort it

[frigid furnace]

Interpolation > Nearest Neighbor

If you have that

[thorn fog]

I mean, that's better

But now it js looks wrong.

[winged prism]

Is thre no option that rotates it by 90 degree immediately?

[thorn fog]

No.

Although

[winged prism]

Wow that sucks

[thorn fog]

How do we feel about 79°?

[undone oriole]

You scaled it

[winged prism]

I meant the lack of a feature

[thorn fog]

I just rotated it

No scaling at all

[undone oriole]

I just did the exact same thing and got a different result
So you mustve scaled or positioned it wrong

cuz u lost pixels

[thorn fog]

Well, that's why

You rotated it in the positive

[undone oriole]

no it's because it doesn't snap to the grid properly
If u moved the shape it'd look different

[lost bolt]

I did this but with a different icon for the disabled mod

[undone oriole]

Here's the same with a different shape, rotated the other way

[thorn fog]

Strange

Idk how that happened

[tardy sigil]

you guys like my joker ideas? pretty good, right?

[rain orbit]

WAS THAT A [BIG SHOT] JUST NOW?

No I think it was that thing that gets you a free nice cream iirc

[winged prism]

I'm saying that you have an interesting narrative setting

I'm pretending that what you're saying isn't true and is a part of a fictional world you build

And besides, 4 of him would simply be too powerful.

Sigma blind

[azure dagger]

what would be the worst vanilla shader to draw over the screen

[frigid furnace]

negative

[azure dagger]

done

[frigid furnace]

as in it was already tried?

[azure dagger]

I'm making my blind just straight up invert your screen colors

and by that, apply the negative shader over it

[frigid furnace]

ah

[dusky quail]

What would be a good name for a tarot card that changes the enhancement of a card to one that swaps chips and mult when scored?

[normal hollow]

the changingenhancer and the multchipswapper

[dusky quail]

[undone oriole]

what's the enhancement

called

[dusky quail]

I’m waiting for the tarot name first

[rain orbit]

Wouldn't this be better regulated to a joker than an enhancement

Seeing as it messes with your inherent way of scoring

[dusky quail]

Nah

My mod focuses on enhancements

[rain orbit]

Either way it feels rather unfitting for an enhancement effect of all things

Maybe an edition though

[winged prism]

Enhancements don't really correlate to Tarot names at all though

[undone oriole]

also too strong to be an enhancement

probably? idk

[winged prism]

Maybe there is some thought behind the meanings of tarot but I never bothered researching that

[dusky quail]

I mean, I already made and enhancement that balances the current chips and mult value when it’s scored

[winged prism]

Anyway you're making up a tarot so that's not really a factor

[rain orbit]

Not to mention a lot of its build potential is screwed because the swapping is done before the joker triggering, thus you can't do stuff like bull -> switch -> Xmult

[dusky quail]

Just sayin that it’s my mod with my ideas

[winged prism]

Yeah I didn't really even look at the effect, I just thought coming up with a tarot name before you have a name for the enhancement is kinda weird

[rain orbit]

I mean yeah but it's also pointless to actually change it now, numerous other mods already do it in edition, joker, and consumable forms

[dusky quail]

Eh

I don’t really care tho

[azure dagger]

AAAAAAA-

[stable juniper]

I'm not sure how much longer I want to mod Balatro. I feel like everything I've brought to the table recently has been boring, unbalanced, poor quality or some combination of those.

it's not as fun anymore. it's just a thing I know I can do

[azure dagger]

Reject self criticality
Embrace j a n k and f u n n y

[stable juniper]

ugh, I don't know if I'm even that funny

[azure dagger]

You are 100% better than the blinds I'm working on.

[stable juniper]

I mean, my blinds kinda just like. do stuff, they're not funny

you've got the lead on me there, inverting the colours of the game is pretty silly

I dunno. could be some kind of burnout

[frigid furnace]

It could very well be burnout

especially if you've been storming through stuff for however long

[frigid furnace]

Try asking around for feedback on stuff you've made - there are a good number of people with really good game sense and could guide you to refining your ideas

Sometimes all you need is a fresh set of eyes

[stable juniper]

that's true

[frigid furnace]

this also goes for taking a break from modding

[undone oriole]

i fucking love the negative skip

[plush hound]

:peop

shit

🫂

[winged prism]

Peopshit

[plush hound]

but yeah

[frigid furnace]

A good number of said people are also really good at understanding others' ideas and suggesting ways to play into those ideas in a balanced and still fun manner

[plush hound]

what oinite said

[undone oriole]

I LOVE THE RARE TAG LMAOOFSIGHDKJFGBNMGDF

[stable juniper]

right ^^ I'll consider that

[plush hound]

i feel like theres some veterans that could fix your sense of balance

i think

[normal hollow]

you can play joyousspring it has the best balance ever

[rain orbit]

There's only so much you can reasonably do with such a simple game
That's why when you're bored you gotta get either unreasonable or wait until more tools come along

[plush hound]

For me, every Mods feels like their own take on this game

[lost bolt]

i can understand ghostsalt, it can be demoralizing to go a long time without much feedback and not knowing whether what you're doing is "right" or not

[plush hound]

I was about to say

"Go ask Reddit"

but i feel like that's not going to end well

😭

[stable juniper]

honestly fair

[undone oriole]

so sad

[frigid furnace]

"jump into a pit of lava" why would you suggest that

[rain orbit]

When I'm stuck on what to make something do I just ask the people here, but those are for my "alternate balatro" mod which I guess might be different

[frigid furnace]

oh man, yeah this sucks a lot

[plush hound]

TO BE FAIR

Redditors of Balatro are

kinda critical

[lost bolt]

And also very Stupid

[rain orbit]

Balatreddit

[plush hound]

that too

but they always follow the sense of the vanilla balance

[rain orbit]

Since you're so bored you can take time away from normal stuff and make wacky shit like a mini balatro fit inside balatro

[plush hound]

or make shitpost

:3

[frigid furnace]

yeah i get that but

[rain orbit]

Reminicent of how you deal with toy freddy in ucn by playing a dumbed down version of fnaf 1

[frigid furnace]

it's like asking for some water and then you get blasted with a pressure washer

oinite jumping from one metaphor to its polar opposite

[plush hound]

i mean its water

LMAO

oh wait

yknow what

since this room is active

hold on

[rain orbit]

Water can cut metal at a high enough pressure

[lost bolt]

NO FUCKING WAY

i thought redditors bringing up tetris as a coping mechanism was just a NL joke it's REAL????

[lost bolt]

i dont know what this means tbh

[plush hound]

its for the misprinted ectoplasm im working with

theres a feature in SMODS where you can specify how many slots can a Joker take

so it got me thinking

maybe i could use that

[frigid furnace]

I need a clarification on the effect, so is it like:

1/2 chance hit? -> No - Nothing happens
-> Yes:
  - All Jokers now take up 0 slots
  - Each Joker that was affected reduces Joker area size by -2

?

[undone oriole]

ohh a 1 in 2 is run on each joker, rather than it being a 1 in 2 for ALL jokers to take zero slots

[plush hound]

YES YES

[plush hound]

what lizzie said

[frigid furnace]

ah

[plush hound]

im so bad at English

😭

[lost bolt]

1 in 2 chance for each joker to take up 0 slots

[undone oriole]

replace "all Jokers" with "each Joker"

yeah

[frigid furnace]

I was thinking "Each Joker has a 1 in 2 chance[...]"

[lost bolt]

i dont know what the part after the comma means

[plush hound]

im asking if youguys have like, any better effects for it

[lost bolt]

ohhh

[plush hound]

than making the joker slotless

[frigid furnace]

ah

[plush hound]

😭

[blissful stag]

Well atleast it appeared

But im probably never gonna see anyone play around it

[frigid furnace]

i personally got nothing (not good at this whole concepting thing X( )

[plush hound]

fair fair 😭

[lost bolt]

Each joker has a 1 in #1# chance to get Negative, and a 1 in #1# chance to lose its edition

[lost bolt]

Is that anything

[plush hound]

thhis sounds good

ill take this to my pondering room

this should output Legendary Jokers isnt it

rarity 4

why is it Rare

[lost bolt]

3rd argument needs to be truthy

[plush hound]

whats truthy again

i forgot

[lost bolt]

just like

true

truthy just means anything that the language interprets as true when you use it as a bool

[plush hound]

OHHH

[frigid furnace]

anything other than false or nil

[lost bolt]

yeah in lua anything that isn't false or nil

i could've just said that the third argument needs to be true

[frigid furnace]

You should probably use SMODS.add_card tho

since it does auto-emplacing stuff

[blissful stag]

Does truthy imply the existence of falsey

[frigid furnace]

Yes

That's false and nil

[frigid furnace]

oh boy it's 4 awesome jokers

[plush hound]

dont diss Chicot like that

[lost bolt]

I dont even think chicot is a bad joker i just think the design is just kinda bad

[frigid furnace]

chicot
legendary
[effect that only works on 8 specific rounds]

[lost bolt]

a legendary joker that doesnt do anything except allow you to ignore a game mechanic is boring as hell

[plush hound]

a legendary joker that beats thunk to death because how bad chicot is

[lost bolt]

imagine if there was a legendary joker that made it so nothing cost any money

so you dont have to interact with money as a system at all

[frigid furnace]

i had a concept for a legendary joker that changes effect every irl day and on 1 april it just debuffs all boss blinds, effectively doubling chances of getting chicot

[blissful stag]

Quabillion lines of code

[plush hound]

Daily Challenges from Entropy

in a form of Joker

[frigid furnace]

funny you mention that right after i make my comment because said joker has been utter hell to implement

there's a specific way i want to implement it and it's requiring, yeah p much a fghksdillion lines of code

[frigid furnace]

oops wrong reply post

[normal hollow]

i will add create_card = nil to smods

so people stop using it

but n prime you're gonna destroy smods.create_card

[blissful stag]

Did you ever think of what the judgements I sprited for you did

Also what happened to the guy who was making a 4k mania thing for balatro I wanna play it

[winged prism]

@cloud willow? I'm not sure which of their mods is the rhythm minigame thing is a part of

I'm pretty sure someone asked for mod recommendations just now and then deleted the messages

What was that about

[lost bolt]

nightmare

[lost bolt]

the way i always imagined doing smth like that would be a table of functions

[frigid furnace]

I've resorted to a more dynamic solution given that I can't be expected to come up with 366 unqiue effects for one Joker

[lost bolt]

something something "lookup tables" = profit?

[frigid furnace]

basically the day of the year is an rng seed

used to determine conditions and given values

a table would be used, however, for days where I want to override the random-ish effect, i.e. holidays

[azure dagger]

Didn't localthunk legit use the mouse X and Y for RNG?

[winged prism]

A joker that copies a set of copyable Jokers based on the day of the year

[winged prism]

Whuj

For what

[azure dagger]

THEY BLEED
AAAUUUGGGHHH

[azure dagger]

i dunno, just heard about it on a video

[frigid furnace]

That's what I heard too

is there an alternative to brainstorm THAT ACTUALLY WORKS?

[ancient sinew]

thanks

[toxic cloud]

brainstorm still works, as long as you don't try to add new contents

and not enable "object weights" feature I believe

[dim sparrow]

yo what mods should i try next

[hard patio]

the next move is to self promote

[dim sparrow]

yaaa i see yall love self promoting mods lol

as long as they are good

[dim sparrow]

u got a mod?

[hard patio]

despite my label indicating that im in a lot of mods, not really

[dim sparrow]

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

[hard patio]

i have one in the works but that's more of a coding practice

[dim sparrow]

gang MAKE A LOT

NOWWWWWWWWWWW

[hard patio]

nah, im fine just being either a guest artist or a main artist

[dim sparrow]

yo hear me out on a card idea

name is head or tails

either 50 50 chance next hand has a 2.5x multi or a 0.5

or you can pick head as the 2.5 and tail as 0.5

same thing but one u pick your choice

but here the thing

the more you get in a row

the more it multi

[dim sparrow]

yo when i add another mod i do the link to it

[plush hound]

try Tangents @dim sparrow

[dim sparrow]

doanloud the thing

idk what that is

[plush hound]

good mod

[dim sparrow]

but download zip

ooo maybe then

but i download zip

then do i carry it to the app data balatro mods?

[dim sparrow]

yo???????

[ember flicker]

download zip, drop to appdata mods

[dim sparrow]

i did but look

What the fuck is wrong with your screenshots who's eating them

[dim sparrow]

idk im doing a snap pic so i take only a pic of what i draw

[limber oak]

talisman? ew

[ember flicker]

how do you categorize cat jokers

[lost bolt]

+1 mult for each enhanced card in deck or +8 chips

[ember flicker]

either is good

whats the rarity

[hard plank]

😭

twin why are you using freeform screenshot

[ember flicker]

Why doesnt my mods work on Linux

It worked fine on arch but when I try on gentoo they don’t load the mods

Only lovely works

But doesn’t load mods :(

[limber oak]

linux is jank sometimes

[leaden vector]

Gentoo... /j

[hard plank]

it's rare to see gentoo users so i am not equipped to handle it

[valid pawn]

I am using openrc not systemd

It tries to launch the mods from wrong folder and when I try to search for the folder I can’t find it

[hard plank]

yea no i don't think anyone here is equipped to handle that

[valid pawn]

Wow :(

There's a rather awkward amount of vertical space between their eyes and nose

[cloud willow]

https://discord.com/channels/1116389027176787968/1504078889209827518

[rain orbit]

This can be solved by just moving the nose up and making the smile bigger

[crude verge]

good point

gimmie a sec

[rain orbit]

Also the seam in the hat and in the cloak thingy are rather awkward as well

[cloud willow]

i started making pjsk, not osu

[rain orbit]

The hat goes in a zigzag pattern and the clothes go in a normal pattern

[crude verge]

yeah, tbh i made the art at like 2 am and now i am posting it

[rain orbit]

I meant inconsistent

[rain orbit]

Me up at 6 am for no reason but sheer will

Dont want to export this 2 thousand times before doing it a lil rigth

If you're on aseprite if you copy it you can paste it as it's in your clipboard

[crude verge]

how?

[rain orbit]

uh

ctrl + c
ctrl + v

[hard plank]

it's rare to see gentoo users so i am not equipped for this

[valid pawn]

Didnt you already say this

[rain orbit]

[crude verge]

I think because i am POOR and i use libresprite, doesnt work

[rain orbit]

Oh

[rain orbit]

Anyway this

2x as well

Btw I recommend making the little black marks blue

Cuz it just looks better to me

[crude verge]

yeah

idk

[hard plank]

wait did I?

[rain orbit]

I already sent you my edit of the face

Just without the black mark change

[hard plank]

the message was left in the chatbox when i restarted pc

[crude verge]

yeah but this i made it meanwhile-

for some reason i want the face to be different to the jimbo face

[cloud willow]

yeah u did

[rain orbit]

It kinda already is

[crude verge]

I kinda want this as a new base for other jokers

[cloud willow]

discord is a perfectly functional app with no bugs

[rain orbit]

It's less of a uniqueness problem and more of faces just looking better like that in the balatro art style

Though frankly what you're doing can work to as can literally anything

Just not in the same vanilla-y way

[crude verge]

just made a chimera between the 2 versions

[rain orbit]

Maybe try using the lighter blue for that seeing as the rest of the face makeup is using their lighter colors

[crude verge]

I dont know how to make the hat look less... "in place"? idk

[rain orbit]

Do the same thing that the vanilla jokers do as contrary as it sounds

[crude verge]

This color?

[rain orbit]

Yes

[rain orbit]

In balatro's artstyle going half and half on an outfit is very hard to actually pull off without doing the same thing vanilla does

[crude verge]

Good point

but i think i made it... acceptable at least

I think the hair coloring isnt a problem so, yippieee

[orchid wasp]

I FOUND OUT HOW TO INSTALL DECK BUILDER PROPERLY

Use the GitHub instead of the mod Manager

Thanks to @lunar oracle for telling me this on YouTube.

[lunar oracle]

No problem dude!

[orchid wasp]

We share the knowledge

[rain orbit]

Mr beast

[frigid mica]

How do you properly promote a mod?

Your own mod*

[rain orbit]

Your mod is NOTHING unless it was made by 25+ pseudo-proffessional developers at MINIMUM!!!!!!!

[cloud willow]

@orchid wasp its not loading

[rain orbit]

And has 20 MILLION BILLION hours of content

And is inexplicibly incompatible with every other mod because of the sheer amount of bullshit filler

[orchid wasp]

Oh but it worked for lost moon?

[frigid mica]

Ah

[cloud willow]

@lunar oracle ?

[cloud willow]

no clue, but maybe trying https://discord.com/channels/1116389027176787968/1498141309175599104 will help give you ideas

[frigid mica]

All you need is meme jokers, lord.ruby, and a gazillion more jokers

Good UI design tho…

[orchid wasp]

Yeah

[fallow bramble]

Pester about it hourly

[cloud willow]

can you send link

[rain orbit]

[rain orbit]

Oh god the omega shenron dream

[lunar oracle]

Hey so you need to clear your mod folder, and then I'd follow Zaino's video on how to mod Balatro before adding Deck Creator

https://youtu.be/uDfxnwHO134?is=Z-ZjaCtFaqnujVAb

Mod Manager doesn't work!!

[cloud willow]

why would I need to clear my mod folder

[lunar oracle]

I do not know but I didn't and it didn't work, and when I did it did work! I am not a mod developer so I'm not sure why this is lol 😛

Might have just been a problem with me so you can try it without clearing the mod folder!

[cloud willow]

also I dont think you meant it to come across as rude, but I hope I already know how to mod balatro considering I've contributed to smods lol

[hard plank]

hi

[cloud willow]

o/

[cloud willow]

do you know what mods you had beforehand

[lunar oracle]

That's my bad lmao I just tell all my commenters the same thing 😂

[cloud willow]

lol

[lunar oracle]

I was using the multiplayer installer?

[cloud willow]

hmm
ill try removing mp then

[lunar oracle]

I should probably point out the Deck Creator mod is one of the worst optimised mods I've used, and it seems extremely glitchy. It hasn't been updated in a while so there's probably just a lot of problems with it.

It's a great mod so a bit of a shame :/

[limber oak]

its jank

i should make people be able to customize feature in my mod for a deck

hi @stable juniper

@hard plank i figured it out you just had to put the mod files inside of /.var/app/com.valvesoftware.Steam/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/compatdata/2379780/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/AppData/Roaming/Balatro/Mods

[hard plank]

wtf

it was using the wrong file for it

idk

how do fix it so my mod manager uses that directory

Don't use a mod manager but I ain't crossing this out

[granite spear]

balatro mod that adds ideologies to cards as new type of enhancement exist?

[latent crescent]

I dont think so but I suggest be careful with that

[winged prism]

Elaborate?
Like if you're talking about real life ideologies then that's weirdly specific

[stable juniper]

are you skipping any ideologies

are you doing the murderous ones

[winged prism]

Weirdly political Balatro mod that makes the authors opinions very obvious

[cloud willow]

making a political balatro mod designed to piss of as many people as possible 🔥

[granite spear]

make a joker that is hitler and stalin doing yaoi in that mod

[mortal pivot]

which balatro mod kinds are now popular?
vanilla+ ones?

[cloud willow]

wormhole semirecently released

[winged prism]

Wormhole is NOT vanilla+

[mortal pivot]

what about inner-mods?

[cloud willow]

it was supposed to be

[cloud willow]

huh?

[winged prism]

What

[mortal pivot]

so no one tried that yet

[cloud willow]

no what is an inner-mod

[winged prism]

What the fuck does that mean

[mortal pivot]

its like a mod which links two mods together

sth like that

[cloud willow]

balatro doesnt really have those

modpacks arent prevalent here

if 2 mods work together the code will be in one of them

[mortal pivot]

i tried once
it was terrible

[latent crescent]

if 2 mods work together usually it's luck

[mortal pivot]

thats a really big con of balatro mods

[winged prism]

Yeah, no, inner-mod ain't a real term
There are mods with some cross-mod content but like that's mostly it
And #1426981585005318246 is technically what you're talking about but with shitton of mods
It changes a lot of those mods content to work kinda sorta

[mortal pivot]

thats interesting

[cloud willow]

you have mods like hot potato and cold beans which are kinda like mod packs, with individual teams making mods that are put into a single mod

Retriggers are so strong in this game

[storm cosmos]

In a pvp match, what happens in the case of a tie? Also what happens in the case of 1 player decking out during pvp?

[lean dune]

tie means no one loses a life

[storm cosmos]

Decking out just ends your turn I'm guessing?

[lean dune]

yeah

you just don't get to use your remaining hands

[storm cosmos]

Does it still trigger the double mr bones bug in a different sense if you deck out on small or big blind?

[lean dune]

that I'm not sure about

[woven crag]

i would imagine multiplayer hasnt fixed that bug

but multiplayer also just does a bunch of random stuff so who knows

[hard plank]

eris

[cloud willow]

balatro dark mode

[undone oriole]

suits

[long hare]

mr. bones doesnt trigger on deck out, it just checks if hands are 0 i think

[undone oriole]

also i personally believe it should be warm and cold suits instead of light and dark 🤓

support for smeared-type effects in general is pretty bad in smods

guys i got a questiin

can i i mod balatro for apple arcade

or is it only on steam

[winged prism]

#📜・modding-rules

[dreamy kestrel]

what am i looking for here

[winged prism]

I mean

Preferably everything

But rule 4

[unkempt current]

We love you rule 4

[dreamy kestrel]

isnt mac a pc technically

mac counts as a personal computer

[winged prism]

Isn't Apple Arcade a mobile think for ios or whatever
Anyway, it's on a platform owned by Apple and the actual reason for rule 4 is tos of other platforms usually prohibiting modding

So like

Even if we're talking about Mac, we probably shouldn't

[dreamy kestrel]

well its not only limited to mobile right

[cloud willow]

you can mod balatro on anything
you can only discuss PC or similar here

[dreamy kestrel]

and i am

[cloud willow]

i would highly recommend checking out the smods discord for completely unrelated reasons

[dreamy kestrel]

im discussing modding my mac(pc) to access something thats provided by a diff service than the ones used commonly doesnt break any rules though
