There's like multiple different areas

#

[manifest]
version = "1.0.0"
dump_lua = true
priority = 0

# Wee Fibonacci rendering
[[patches]]
[patches.pattern]
target = "card.lua"
pattern = 'if center.name == "Wee Joker" and (center.discovered or self.bypass_discovery_center) then'
position = "before"
payload = '''
if center.name == "cry-Wee Fibonacci" and (center.discovered or self.bypass_discovery_center) then 
    H = H*0.7
    W = W*0.7
    self.T.h = H
    self.T.w = W
end
'''
match_indent = true

[[patches]]
[patches.pattern]
target = "card.lua"
pattern = 'elseif self.config.center.name == "Wee Joker" then'
position = "before"
payload = '''
elseif self.config.center.name == "cry-Wee Fibonacci" then 
    self.T.h = H*scale*0.7*scale
    self.T.w = W*scale*0.7*scale
'''
match_indent = true

#

This is how I do it for wee fibonacci in Cryptid, although using soul_pos might make things trickier

#

there's also this scale factor that goes into the shader

# Draw midground layer
[[patches]]
[patches.pattern]
target = "card.lua"
pattern = "if self.config.center.soul_pos and (self.config.center.discovered or self.bypass_discovery_center) then"
position = "after"
payload = '''
if self.config.center.soul_pos and self.config.center.soul_pos.extra and (self.config.center.discovered or self.bypass_discovery_center) then
    local scale_mod = 0.07
    local rotate_mod = 0
    self.children.floating_sprite2:draw_shader('dissolve',0, nil, nil, self.children.center,scale_mod, rotate_mod,nil, 0.1,nil, 0.6)
    self.children.floating_sprite2:draw_shader('dissolve', nil, nil, nil, self.children.center, scale_mod, rotate_mod) 
end
'''
match_indent = true

#

This is how I draw one of the layers for Cryptid's Exotic jokers, and it doesn't move or rotate here but it's a little bigger

#

you might be able to get away with this and just change scale_mod to like -0.4 or something (along with the whole equation)

this is getting super frustrating, im trying to make the amount of uses on a consumable refresh when you beat the boss blind, but for some reason it isnt triggering inside the calculate function. i dont know where else to put it, and i dont really know any other context that could work

frosty dock May 30, 2024, 9:02 PM

#

yeah calculate only works for context.joker_main on consumables, unfortunately

#

you'd probably have to add those calculate calls yourself

fallen tendon May 30, 2024, 9:15 PM

#

frosty dock you'd probably have to add those calculate calls yourself

how would i do that?

charred needle May 30, 2024, 9:22 PM

#

yo, how do I check for what card is currently being scored, because other_card is nil ~~ignore the spamton stuff its because the card has a section that looks like his sprite~~

#

Anyone know why context.poker_hands["Pair"] only contains the 3oak in a full house?

zealous glen May 30, 2024, 10:09 PM

#

Presumably because the 3OAK contains a Pair. Maybe it’s not an exhaustive search?

#

or maybe because aure changed how it’s calculated, IIRC?

wintry solar May 30, 2024, 10:10 PM

#

it finds both in a two pair though

charred needle May 30, 2024, 10:10 PM

#

is there a way to get the cards in the hand and score them AND the cards played?

zealous glen May 30, 2024, 10:11 PM

#

Isn’t that Splash

charred needle May 30, 2024, 10:12 PM

#

What I was thinking was if you play a royal flush, the cards played score twice, and your hand (the cards at the bottom of the screen you can play from) get scored before they all get destroyed

zealous glen May 30, 2024, 10:14 PM

#

I’d probably check for a royal flush then add a variable that triggers a repetition while also setting an internal variable that makes cards in hand score, and then destroy them, and reset the internal variable afterwards

#

Maybe a hook/lovely patch to score cards makes more sense than doing it inside calculate

charred needle May 30, 2024, 10:15 PM

#

Final Qs before I end the project work for the day.

How do I display two messages if the card gives both chips AND mult, since this code (attached) doesnt show two message prompts
What do I call to check if certain jokers are in the joker slot?

zealous glen May 30, 2024, 10:15 PM

#

If 1.0, use eval_this

#

Otherwise, either do it manually or use…

#

eval_this

charred needle May 30, 2024, 10:21 PM

#

So in return, call eval_this(self, mult, chips)?

sturdy glen May 30, 2024, 10:51 PM

#

my mod keeps crashing and I don't know why... I took bits and pieces from another mod and the games code :P
the steamodded wiki was confusing to me so I might have skipped over something important on accident

charred needle May 30, 2024, 11:01 PM

#

So, my joker seemingly runs the upgrade under every card, and sometimes multiple times per card (it should only run once on it being scored, and the only triggering cards should be a 3,2, and an Ace.

    if context.individual then
        if context.other_card:get_id() == 2 and not context.blueprint then
         
        self.ability.extra.chips = self.ability.extra.chips + 2
        self.ability.extra.mult = self.ability.extra.mult + 2
        print("upgraded by 2")
        print(self.ability.extra.chips)

        return {
            extra = {focus = self, message = localize('k_upgrade_ex')},
            card = self,
            colour = G.C.CHIPS ,
            extra = {focus = self, message = localize('k_upgrade_ex')},
            card = self,
            colour = G.C.MULT
    } 
        elseif context.other_card:get_id() == 3 and not context.blueprint then
        
        self.ability.extra.chips = self.ability.extra.chips + 3
        self.ability.extra.mult = self.ability.extra.mult + 3
        print("upgraded by 3")
        print(self.ability.extra.chips)

        return {
            extra = {focus = self, message = localize('k_upgrade_ex')},
            card = self,
            colour = G.C.CHIPS, 
    }   
    elseif  context.other_card:get_id() == 14 and not context.blueprint then
        
        self.ability.extra.chips = self.ability.extra.chips + 1
        self.ability.extra.mult = self.ability.extra.mult + 1
        print("upgraded by 1")
        print(self.ability.extra.chips)

        return {
            extra = {focus = self, message = localize('k_upgrade_ex')},
            card = self,
            colour = G.C.CHIPS, 
    }   

end
end
    if self.ability.name == 'Destruction' and context.joker_main then
    salesman = math.random(1997)
    return {
        message = localize{type='variable', key='a_chips', vars={self.ability.extra.chips}},
        chip_mod = self.ability.extra.chips,
        mult_mod = self.ability.extra.mult,
        card = self,
        colour = G.C.CHIPS,
    }
end
end

~~sorry about the wall of text~~

What’s the condition you want it to satisfy for it to appear?

#

Or do you just want it to never appear

#

I think it’s hidden = true or something, but you should check the create_card() function

random sleet May 30, 2024, 11:35 PM

cavendish checks a yes_pool_flag

conversely, gros michel checks a no_pool_flag

Is this saying that it's unsupported right now?

#

That's under SMODS.injectJokers()

#

And actually, when I change the yes_pool_flag, will that then make it possible to show up in the shop? Because that's not what I want to happen

charred needle May 30, 2024, 11:54 PM

#

heres my current code if that helps

wintry solar May 31, 2024, 12:06 AM

#

charred needle heres my current code if that helps

what's it supposed to do?

charred needle May 31, 2024, 12:07 AM

#

If a two is scored, increment the jokers chips and mult by two. If a three is scored, increment the jokers chips and mult by three. If ace, increment by one

#

but what happens is it checks the whole hand

#

e.g, the played cards and the cards in your hand (at the bottom of the screen)

#

honestly now that im thinking about that, the skill seems more "rare" or "legendary" than uncommon

wintry solar May 31, 2024, 12:10 AM

I know theres {C:attention}, but is there a thing to make it small? and is there a way to change the joker artwork while the joker is in the joker slots?

mellow sable May 31, 2024, 2:00 AM

#

You can do like {C:attention,s:0.8}

#

and you'd need to change the pos values to dynamically change the joker artowrk

charred needle May 31, 2024, 2:01 AM

#

thonk so if I were to put in in a spritesheet, with one right next to the other (transparent boarder intact), how would I change the POS

mellow sable May 31, 2024, 2:02 AM

#

you could probably just manually modify self.pos.x or self.pos.y to match what you want in the spritesheet

#

not 100% sure if this would work since I haven't done something like this but it would make sense

charred needle May 31, 2024, 2:05 AM

#

Honestly seems like a lot of work to implement a silly joke because of the way I drew a pattern looked like spamton

random sleet May 31, 2024, 2:06 AM

#

if you change the center's pos itll change it for every instance of that card

#

you'll need to change card.children.center

#

card.children.center:set_sprite_pos({x=#, y=#}) i think

#

card.children contains all the sprites for that card, wherein center is the one you'll be concerned with for pretty much everything except playing cards

#

floating_sprite is the soul_pos, and front has the playing card suit/rank sprite

#

back is what's shown when the card is facedown, typically drawn from your deck back but you can manipulate it if you want

charred needle May 31, 2024, 2:10 AM

#

so it would be


  card.children.center:set_sprite_pos({x=#, y=#)

end

```?

random sleet May 31, 2024, 2:10 AM

yea

keep in mind that wont keep through save/reload iirc

random sleet May 31, 2024, 2:15 AM

i might have the arguments wrong idk, id doublecheck how basegame uses :set_sprite_pos

#

(alas i am afk for ~10 hours)

charred needle May 31, 2024, 2:16 AM

#

thumb_up I just didnt think that the base game had texture changing jokers when conditions were met

random sleet May 31, 2024, 2:17 AM

#

it doesnt, but the :set_sprite_pos function is used for setting up cards

#

you're basically just using a function that normally only gets called once per card

#

i forget if there has to be other stuff than just the pos, been a bit since i set up anything using that function

charred needle May 31, 2024, 2:19 AM

#

alright, new thing. card not defined. heres the temp code to set it every time before I implement the condition

random sleet May 31, 2024, 2:20 AM

#

oh yeah it should be self in that case

#

im used to 1.0 lol

#

(1.0 funcs get self and card, where self is the center object itself and card is the actual card)

#

excuse me x=71????

#

i sincerely doubt you have 71 cards in a horizontal line in your spritesheet, did you mean x=1? sprite pos's already account for the per-card size

charred needle May 31, 2024, 3:03 AM

#

then probably x=1

#

do i need to set the 71 to 142 in order to have it work?

#

answer is no, it works on playing a card

stray warren May 31, 2024, 3:31 AM

#

Is there a way to loop through each registered Joker and embed a message in their description? So if I wanted to display their current sell value in the description, and have it update when the sell value changes, which function should I start at?

#

Well, not loop through. But just somehow embed the sell value in the description on calculate

random sleet May 31, 2024, 5:33 AM

#

sounds like something for generate_card_ui perhaps

#

or the UIBox function that calls it, which i forget the name of

#

the description window is dynamically generated on hovering over the card, the text isnt stored with the card

stray warren May 31, 2024, 6:06 AM

#

Oh ok, that's one thing I was wondering about

#

So could I do something within the hover function? Is the hover function stored in the Card class?

#

I'm not at my computer right now or I would check

zealous glen May 31, 2024, 6:09 AM

#

You can hook generate_card_ui or generate_UIBox_ability_table

#

I myself did the latter to display Hiker-like extra Chips and Mult on Jokers

stray warren May 31, 2024, 6:11 AM

ancient finch May 31, 2024, 8:59 AM

#

Anyone know why this happens?

This is the code for the afflicted area

calculate = function(self,context)
  if self.added_to_deck then
    return {         --line 125
      G.hand:change_size(-1),
      G.GAME.round_resets.discards = G.GAME.round_resets.discards - 1,
    }
  end,
  if not self.added_to_deck then
    return {
      G.hand:change_size(1),
      G.GAME.round_resets.discards = G.GAME.round_resets.discards + 1,
    }
  end,
  if context.joker_main then
    return {
      message = localize{type='variable',key='a_mult',vars={50}},
      mult_mod = 50,
    }
  end
end,

#

It says the { is never closed, but it is

spice scroll May 31, 2024, 9:01 AM

#

maybe delete the commas at the end of the } ? just spitballing im not sure

ancient finch May 31, 2024, 9:02 AM

#

spice scroll maybe delete the commas at the end of the } ? just spitballing im not sure

Will try

#

Because I don't know how Lua works

#

Removed the commas after end, but no cigar

#

I copied it from stuntman and merry andy basically

#

I might've gotten it wrong though

#

Actually no, I adapted troubadour's -1 hand to -1 discard

#

I looked at stuntman for the hand size

#

It works perfectly if I remove this bit

if self.added_to_deck then
    return {         --line 125
      G.hand:change_size(-1),
      G.GAME.round_resets.discards = G.GAME.round_resets.discards - 1,
    }
  end,
  if not self.added_to_deck then
    return {
      G.hand:change_size(1),
      G.GAME.round_resets.discards = G.GAME.round_resets.discards + 1,
    }
  end

#

But then it doesn't have the full intended effect

#

Again, that was something that Stuntman and Troubadour do. They seem to "permanently" modify your stats when they are bought, and then permanently modify them again when they're sold

#

Well, that's how it looks like

wintry solar May 31, 2024, 9:09 AM

#

It’s not redundant?

#

If it wasn’t there you wouldn’t get the discards back

#

Oh yeah I get what you mean

ancient finch May 31, 2024, 9:12 AM

#

I'm still having the issue of missing bracket but there is a bracket

wintry solar May 31, 2024, 9:12 AM

#

I wonder if removing it means it always triggers though, I’m not sure how the added to deck parts trigger

#

You have a comma after end

ancient finch May 31, 2024, 9:14 AM

#

I removed the return {} function, so its just this now

#

#

Still not a fan, but a different error

#

wintry solar May 31, 2024, 9:15 AM

#

You have commas at the end of your lines

#

You don’t need them unless it’s inside a table

ancient finch May 31, 2024, 9:16 AM

#

context.joker_main works when the rest is removed

wintry solar May 31, 2024, 9:16 AM

#

That’s what the error says

ancient finch May 31, 2024, 9:16 AM

#

And I did remove the commas

#

Oh wait, yeah ofc

wintry solar May 31, 2024, 9:17 AM

#

#

They’re everywhere

ancient finch May 31, 2024, 9:18 AM

#

That was when they were inside a return, and I forgot to remove them

#

Ok, that code above "works" without those commas now

#

However

#

It immediately sets me to 0 discards and 0 hand size

#

After I play a hand

wintry solar May 31, 2024, 9:19 AM

#

It probably triggers for every joker calculate call because you have no contexts

ancient finch May 31, 2024, 9:19 AM

#

Ah good shout

Either you win big, or its a rags to riches play

#

Whats the context trigger for when bought or sold?

wintry solar May 31, 2024, 9:21 AM

#

Check the context stack in card.lua

ancient finch May 31, 2024, 9:22 AM

#

wintry solar Check the context stack in card.lua

What does that mean?

wintry solar May 31, 2024, 9:22 AM

#

Read through calculate_joker and figure it out

#

That’s where all the contexts are

#

It’ll serve you better in the long run to understand the contexts rather than just ask

#

The only one that’s not there is G.joker_main but that’s just the final else at the end

ancient finch May 31, 2024, 9:23 AM

#

Right, there's about 500 "calculate_joker" bits, I don't know which to read, or what I'm looking for

wintry solar May 31, 2024, 9:25 AM

#

And follow the tree backwards to find the contexts

ancient finch May 31, 2024, 9:25 AM

#

The joker should add +50 mult, -1 discard, -1 hand size, similar to stuntman or troubadour

#

But neither of those jokers have their -hand size in a calculate function I can find

#

And if they do, I copied it word for word already

wintry solar May 31, 2024, 9:26 AM

#

No you need the context

#

Not the actual calculate code

#

Go to where you found that card and examine the if-else tree it’s in

ancient finch May 31, 2024, 9:29 AM

#

Yeah, I found that

#

#

What does the ease do?

#

I've seen it used for ease_money() or ease_hands_played() or ease_discards()

wintry solar May 31, 2024, 9:31 AM

#

Are you using 1.0 or 0.9.8

ancient finch May 31, 2024, 9:31 AM

#

0.9.8

wintry solar May 31, 2024, 9:32 AM

#

So I think you’ll need another function like calculate called add_to_deck

random sleet May 31, 2024, 9:33 AM

#

1.0 has add_to_deck, idr if 0.9.8 has any such thing

wintry solar May 31, 2024, 9:34 AM

#

Can you show your whole code?

random sleet May 31, 2024, 9:35 AM

#

also the latter half of that should be a remove_from_deck call i think

wintry solar May 31, 2024, 9:35 AM

#

You also don’t need the if

random sleet May 31, 2024, 9:35 AM

wintry solar May 31, 2024, 8:22 PM

you should also be able to llook in context.poker_hands['Three of a Kind'] and check if the first card in it is a 7

#

like, context.poker_hands['Three of a Kind'][1][1] will give you the first card in the three of a kind

#

yeah it counts that too

#

I think the only thing that is missing from poker_hands is when you play a full house, pair only returns the set of three

Okay, so all hands like 'Three of a Kind' and 'Four of a Kind' are inclusive of other scoring hand types that may include those cards?

you'll need to do something with that before checking it equals 7

should it not be anim_timer > 1 and 2 - anim_timer or anim_timer?

#

@tawny perch What do you think? I wonder if it's too distracting

#

also @wintry solar what do you think of a HologramAPI for these kinds of shader effects? Do you think it needs anything besides an injection to Card:draw to add a check for custom shaders to apply?

wintry solar Jun 1, 2024, 1:10 AM

#

does that have a shader on?

zealous glen Jun 1, 2024, 1:11 AM

Not a custom one, but I change the scale

zealous glen Jun 1, 2024, 1:11 AM

#

zealous glen It's probably some domain error I'm too tired to see ```lua local anim_timer...

as you can see here

#

but Hologram's code right before does call a custom shader I think

#

It does. I inject after self.hover_tilt = self.hover_tilt/1.5

#

hence if you wanted to use a custom shader, this would be the spot

I realized, in order to continue making dumb stuff I need to learn how to mod balatro for real. I really want to make a change to card stacking. With the hope that I could categorize jokers by what they mainly do (eg: mult X vs mult flat), and have those cards stack into a drop down, or sub menu.

All I've really been able to gather is that with the above function definition, context.cardarea == G.jokers always returns false and context.joker_main always returns nil

Also I suspect maybe the floating sprite size can’t change by itself because it might be tied to the major but I didn’t test that

#

I remember accidentally making the major wide but not the soul

wintry solar Jun 1, 2024, 2:00 PM

#

self.children.floating_sprite:draw_shader('dissolve', nil, nil, nil, self.children.center, 0.5)

#

you could try that

zealous glen Jun 1, 2024, 2:00 PM

#

I mean I already have the patch code that helps

fast badge Jun 1, 2024, 2:02 PM

#

Aight whats the patch

#

how does it work

wintry solar Jun 1, 2024, 2:02 PM

#

try drawing the shader in your code block instead of the reset_sprite thingy

#

I think it's unlikely to work but worth a go

fast badge Jun 1, 2024, 2:03 PM

#

I tried

wintry solar Jun 1, 2024, 2:04 PM

#

yeah I guess the one in the Card:draw stack draws on top of it

fast badge Jun 1, 2024, 2:04 PM

#

Probably

wintry solar Jun 1, 2024, 2:05 PM

[patches.pattern]
target = "card.lua"
pattern = "self.hover_tilt = self.hover_tilt/1.5"
position = "after"
payload = '''
CALCULATE SCALE AND DRAW SHADER HERE
'''
match_indent = true```

#

with an elseif self.ability.name="Blank Joker" at the start of the payload

fast badge Jun 1, 2024, 2:06 PM

#

Where do I put that

wintry solar Jun 1, 2024, 2:06 PM

#

hold on

#

[patches.pattern]
target = "card.lua"

  scale_mod = scale_mod * 0.5

needs header

fast badge Jun 1, 2024, 2:08 PM

#

wintry solar I think that will work

no it wont

#

you didnt draw the shader

wintry solar Jun 1, 2024, 2:08 PM

#

oh snap I forgot elseif will break out

#

hold on

fast badge Jun 1, 2024, 2:09 PM

dw

i got it

wintry solar Jun 1, 2024, 2:09 PM

#

                        self.children.floating_sprite:draw_shader('dissolve', nil, nil, nil, self.children.center, scale_mod, rotate_mod)``` put those in too

lovely header

also "else if" isnt "elseif"

oh yeah I forgot the header

thank

wintry solar Jun 1, 2024, 2:12 PM

#

aren't elseif and else if functionally the same?

#

oh no they'd need an extra end

#

nvm

fast badge Jun 1, 2024, 2:12 PM

#

me when it still doesnt work

wintry solar Jun 1, 2024, 2:13 PM

#

is the joker name right?

#

I don't remember what it was called

fast badge Jun 1, 2024, 2:14 PM

#

I got it

#

scale needs to be * -0.5

#

and way more

#

-0.5

wintry solar Jun 1, 2024, 2:14 PM

#

*0.5 should half the scale

fast badge Jun 1, 2024, 2:15 PM

#

#

scale_mod = -0.5

#

just saying

wintry solar Jun 1, 2024, 2:15 PM

#

huh

#

oh wait yeah of course

#

because the scale_mod the game defines just pulses slightly

#

I still don't think it needs to be negative though

fast badge Jun 1, 2024, 2:17 PM

#

scale = 0.5

#

lol

wintry solar Jun 1, 2024, 2:18 PM

#

looks like it's an addivite modifier

fast badge Jun 1, 2024, 2:18 PM

#

mhmm

wintry solar Jun 1, 2024, 2:18 PM

#

did you want the hologram shader on top of it too?

fast badge Jun 1, 2024, 2:18 PM

#

Now how to additionally get the hologram shader

#

Yes

#

brains = connected

wintry solar Jun 1, 2024, 2:18 PM

#

copy the bottom draw shader

#

change dissolve to hologram

#

ezpz

fast badge Jun 1, 2024, 2:19 PM

#

that didnt work half a minute ago, lets see

#

update, it still doesnt

#

neither with the code from the hologram shader itself

wintry solar Jun 1, 2024, 2:20 PM

#

show code?

fast badge Jun 1, 2024, 2:20 PM

#

code pic

#

self.children.floating_sprite:draw_shader('hologram', nil, self.ARGS.send_to_shader, nil, self.children.center, 2*scale_mod, 2*rotate_mod) doesnt work either

#

is it the ordering? or does one of them need to be replaced

wintry solar Jun 1, 2024, 2:23 PM

#

try just putting the self.ARGS.send_to_shader in palce of the second nil in the screenshot you sent

fast badge Jun 1, 2024, 2:23 PM

#

nope

wintry solar Jun 1, 2024, 2:24 PM

#

it just draws the plain joker?

fast badge Jun 1, 2024, 2:24 PM

#

mhm

#

actually you can see it a bit

#

but its not how its supposed to be

wintry solar Jun 1, 2024, 2:25 PM

#

that's working

#

that's what the shader does

fast badge Jun 1, 2024, 2:25 PM

#

That is NOT looking like the hologram

#

Prayge

wintry solar Jun 1, 2024, 2:25 PM

#

you could replace the second dissolve shader

#

currently you draw the shader > draw the card > draw the hologram effect

fast badge Jun 1, 2024, 2:26 PM

#

uh huh

wintry solar Jun 1, 2024, 2:26 PM

#

so don't draw the card

#

trust

fast badge Jun 1, 2024, 2:27 PM

#

uh huh

wintry solar Jun 1, 2024, 2:27 PM

#

huh

fast badge Jun 1, 2024, 2:27 PM

#

me when I dont draw the card:

wintry solar Jun 1, 2024, 2:29 PM

#

code?

fast badge Jun 1, 2024, 2:29 PM

#

#

"dont draw the card" - is confused the card isnt being drawn

wintry solar Jun 1, 2024, 2:29 PM

#

no the hologram shader should draw the card

fast badge Jun 1, 2024, 2:29 PM

#

well well well

random sleet Jun 1, 2024, 2:30 PM

#

it might have to do with hologram shader expecting to be drawing the translucent joker sprite and doing it on other things doesnt quite work

#

but also you are being rather rude to people you're basically asking to code this for you so idk im probably gonna peace outta here for a while lol

wintry solar Jun 1, 2024, 2:31 PM

#

oh that is correct

#

the hologram floating sprite IS slightly translucent

fast badge Jun 1, 2024, 2:31 PM

#

hmmm

zealous glen Jun 1, 2024, 2:32 PM

#

Isn’t that the shadow?

fast badge Jun 1, 2024, 2:32 PM

#

random sleet but also you are being rather rude to people you're basically asking to code thi...

mb its jokes i guess i need to use tone indicators

fast badge Jun 1, 2024, 2:32 PM

#

zealous glen Isn’t that the shadow?

Yeahh

wintry solar Jun 1, 2024, 2:32 PM

#

I mean

#

it is also drawing the hologram shader

fast badge Jun 1, 2024, 2:32 PM

#

Yeah

wintry solar Jun 1, 2024, 2:32 PM

#

the hologram shader just omits anything where the alpha is 1

fast badge Jun 1, 2024, 2:33 PM

#

the shader just isnt drawing the card

#

Ahaa

wintry solar Jun 1, 2024, 2:34 PM

#

are you in 1.0?

fast badge Jun 1, 2024, 2:34 PM

#

Indeed I am

wintry solar Jun 1, 2024, 2:34 PM

#

then there's 2 options

#

option 1 - change the shader yourself and create a new shader here
option 2 - wait for editionAPI to be finished because we have shader objects and it'll stop compat errors

fast badge Jun 1, 2024, 2:36 PM

#

is it possible to inject the shader file using lovely patches?

wintry solar Jun 1, 2024, 2:36 PM

#

I guess

#

although I'm not sure how it'll handle non lua files

#

I mean option 1 isn't hard

fast badge Jun 1, 2024, 2:37 PM

#

Yeah I'm looking into it rn

#

if (tex.a > 0.999){tex = vec4(0.,0.,0.,0.);}

wintry solar Jun 1, 2024, 2:37 PM

#

yes

#

remove that line

Yeahh

#

G.SHADERS["key pls"] = love.graphics.newShader(SMODS.current_mod.path.."/assets/shaders/".."something.fs")

frosty dock Jun 1, 2024, 2:38 PM

#

non-lua might be fine, but I'm not sure you can actually add files

fast badge Jun 1, 2024, 2:38 PM

#

wintry solar ` G.SHADERS["key pls"] = love.graphics.newShader(SMODS.current_mod.path.."/asset...

Oh you're so right

frosty dock Jun 1, 2024, 2:38 PM

#

you can add lua modules, which isn't of use

frosty dock Jun 1, 2024, 2:39 PM

#

wintry solar ` G.SHADERS["key pls"] = love.graphics.newShader(SMODS.current_mod.path.."/asset...

this is better

wintry solar Jun 1, 2024, 2:39 PM

#

it'll also be easy to switch to the api when it's released

fast badge Jun 1, 2024, 2:39 PM

#

wintry solar ` G.SHADERS["key pls"] = love.graphics.newShader(SMODS.current_mod.path.."/asset...

Where would I best register that?

wintry solar Jun 1, 2024, 2:40 PM

#

just in top scope of your mod

fast badge Jun 1, 2024, 2:40 PM

#

Just my "init"?

#

Yeahhh

#

okidoki

#

Thanks

wintry solar Jun 1, 2024, 2:40 PM

#

SMODS.Shader({key = 'key pls', path = "path.fs"})

frosty dock Jun 1, 2024, 2:40 PM

#

yeah that should do, injection doesn't mess with it

wintry solar Jun 1, 2024, 2:40 PM

#

this'll be the api version

#

so if you put the key in the first one with your prefix at the start

#

you just need to change the definition when it's ready

frosty dock Jun 1, 2024, 2:41 PM

#

could even have a draw method on SMODS.Shader that takes in the sprite to draw on

#

I don't fancy relying on hard-coded mod prefixes

wintry solar Jun 1, 2024, 2:42 PM

#

but sprites already have a draw_shader method
