[autumn coral]

😭

[wintry solar]

I don't remember why I wrote this over using the games version though

[tepid crow]

there was a reason

[autumn coral]

bad news

it still does not work

i

[wintry solar]

I think it was that the base game didn't use ref_tables?

[autumn coral]

do i have to update something in the actual ui elements?

like write "callback" or something

[wintry solar]

yes

[autumn coral]

oh

that's why it doesn't work

is it just like callback="cycle_update"

[wintry solar]

mhmm

[autumn coral]

sorry i know i'm asking a lot, this mod i'm making is very complicated though

i do not make easy projects for myself, they aren't fun if they aren't challenging

this is probably like the 1st serious thing i've done in lua, minus some other mods from time to time in the past

[thick panther]

Xmult_mod is for the mult's multiplier. What is the chips equivelant?

[autumn coral]

Xchip_mod i think

i'm not even joking

oh my godddd it still isn't working

help me

[wintry solar]

you need a mod that adds xchip support

[autumn coral]

i am going to

explode

?????

or do i need to reference G.FUNCS.cycle_update instead

[wintry solar]

you need current_option too

[autumn coral]

how does that even work 😭

what do i do for that

[wintry solar]

current_option = Wrenbind_config.IsaacVersion

[autumn coral]

ok thank yoyu

oh

now it says "attempt to perform arithmetic on field "current_option" a string value"

💀

let me guess, i can't use strings

no shockingly it doesn't matter because this thing is still broken

[wintry solar]

your config needs to be index based

[autumn coral]

wdym

like [1] = x, [2] = y?

[wintry solar]

return {
    ["IsaacSaveFileNum"] = 1,
    ["IsaacVersion"] = 1
}

like this

[autumn coral]

including all values?

[wintry solar]

and delete the config file the game has made in appdata/balatro/config

[autumn coral]

OH

wait that's 100% why it's broken i think

[exotic hedge]

😔

[autumn coral]

nope

sorz

i am ass at pixel art

it's a miracle i've made anything

[exotic hedge]

https://tenor.com/view/me-atrapaste-es-cine-its-cinema-cinema-esto-es-cine-gif-12869046600151364058

[thick panther]

Is there no chips_mod or is it chip_mod?

[arctic lion]

what kind of paper, you could always emulate the crusty ass lucky cards

[exotic hedge]

just like mostly normal white paper but with a small amount of creases, etc.

[autumn coral]

dude i'm tired i'm going to eat dinner

[arctic lion]

maybe start with heavily degraded by copying the lucky card and then start toning it back

[exotic hedge]

I figured it out! I just looked at the lucky cards and made it very minor, thank you lol

[thick panther]

Is s_chips the chips the base chips of a poker hand type?

[exotic hedge]

is the difference noticable?

or should i darken the creases more

[arctic lion]

less is more in pixel art but it doesn't look outright papery yet so i'd go quite intense with it then remember to view it from afar

when you're zoomed in the details always look deceptive

[exotic hedge]

you're right lol

[autumn coral]

foooood yummy

oh my god

[thick panther]

How do you get the base chips from the scoring poker hand type?

[autumn coral]

i hate how i know immediately what this is the second i see it

[exotic hedge]

how's this?

still too little?

[arctic lion]

almost there i'd say, maybe a touch more yellow/off-white

the card is too pristine white right now, you don't want too many details as the card is quite complex as is so colour might be your friend

[exotic hedge]

the entire paper or just the creases?

[arctic lion]

both

[exotic hedge]

alr bet

[arctic lion]

contrast on pure white compared to pure black is much harder to notice

it's called the simultaneous contrast effect

[exotic hedge]

is this too yellow?

[arctic lion]

too green maybe make it a touch warmer

then use that base colour as a reference for your darker or lighter creases

[exotic hedge]

this one looks pretty good

[arctic lion]

yeah looks more papery now

[exotic hedge]

maybe?

[arctic lion]

yeah you're on the right track, just make small tweaks as you see fit

pure white like that is pretty forgiving with light details in the background

as long as you don't overdo it and make it too busy you've got lots of leeway

[exotic hedge]

alright!

[exotic hedge]

Thank you so much for helping me lol

[fallen tendon]

trying to make a consumable the rerolls another consumable, and it isnt doing anything for some reason

i have no clue what is going on here

it just refuses to acknowledge the fact that there are 2 higlighted consumables

use the balatro source code

ok managed to fix it i think

[edgy reef]

https://github.com/Steamopollys/Steamodded/wiki/Utility

SMODS.create_card

[sonic bone]

how do i get the round score from G.GAME.blind? after ante scaling is applied

i can only find G.GAME.blind.chips in the source code but that didnt work for me, maybe the error is elsewhere

nvm i got it working, my mistake:)

thx for the help yall

[autumn coral]

i did this

https://github.com/h3llo-wor1d/the-binding-of-jimbo

wait is that not the repo name

oh

there u go

look at d20 and d4

the actual roll mechanics are in the "logic" key in dice.lua in jokers/dice.lua

ur looking at d20 tho

[autumn coral]

hmm

how do i get the current mult at the end of calculation for jokers as a joker

like i want to know what everything's mult is AND THEN do my calculation

it's going to multiply the mult by the mult

mult and chips actually

[sonic bone]

i did try checking for context.final_scoring_step = true, but it seems like that doesnt work for jokers, or at least not by itself

this is something i would like to know myself

[autumn coral]

hm

i was going to copy something from cryptid but couldn't figure it oput

[sonic bone]

minor mistake i think context.after does work for scoring jokers

[autumn coral]

it does

i found something from cryptid but oh

ohhh

oops

rip

i found something that might work

i think it's

if 
            context.cardarea == G.jokers
            and not context.before
            and not context.after

oops

i'll lyk tho i'm testing it rn

[sonic bone]

huh

[autumn coral]

oh no now it just doesn't load

lmfao

[sonic bone]

what would even be the difference between that and context.joker_main

[autumn coral]

shrugs

[sonic bone]

i guess we'll never know

[autumn coral]

i'm about to test it tho, i'll lyk

how do u get the current chips and score tho

chips+mult*

[sonic bone]

hand_chips and mult, both global vars

[autumn coral]

gotcha

is it just

G.hand_chips or is it just hand_chips

[sonic bone]

if you want to add the current score to that you do G.GAME.chips

[autumn coral]

gotcha

[sonic bone]

the latter

for both

i only hesitate to use context.after because according to steamodded docs that makes the joker activate after deck effects (such as plasma)

which isnt very nice

[autumn coral]

oh

hm

honestly in my case i don't really care

it triggers twice though

[sonic bone]

true in your case it wouldnt matter

?

[autumn coral]

the first 2 is before plasma

i'm not sure why it does this

[sonic bone]

whats your code?

[autumn coral]

if
context.cardarea == G.jokers
and not context.before
and not context.after
then
print(hand_chips)
print(mult)
return {
message = "^2"
}
end

literally this

one sec

[sonic bone]

its triggering for every time cardarea is == G.jokers

which in this case would be context.joker_main and context.after

[autumn coral]

no clue

[sonic bone]

wait not after

uhh

yeah ok no clue actually

[autumn coral]

i might've made it work though

we'll see

i made it work

oh that's not doing what i wanted it to do though

btw

this is what that does yes

[sonic bone]

even still that should only trigger once unless cardarea isn't changed from G.jokers and the docs dont mention that

[autumn coral]

no i got it

it triggered twice, but i just set a global variable so i only listen once

[sonic bone]

ok very nice

[autumn coral]

so now, how would i change the mult and chips completely

would it literally be as simpel as hand_chips = hand_chips*hand_chips and such

theoretically my polyphemus is working now

i think it works

[sonic bone]

i would not have expected that to work

[autumn coral]

what can i say i'm good at programming

yeah no it actually works

15*15
4*4

i'm so good

anyway it is NOT doing eval text

💀

[sonic bone]

yeah i bet it doesnt look very pretty

[autumn coral]

no actually it's surprisingly decent

ok this REALLY does not want to do the eval text

sigh i have to use my custom eval function

oh my god

wait i'm so fuckign stupid

😭

i have disable scoring animations on in talisman

i did need my custom function though

since the thing it was doing was not related to scoring

I'M SO RFUCKING DUM B

😭

ok it works

[sonic bone]

very nice..

[autumn coral]

how could i change legendary jokers to show up in the shop with a like .025% weight?

or at least, how could i make my own custom rarity that does that lol

[thick panther]

I think you need to use in_pool.

[autumn coral]

i was trying with the cryptid codebase but it was NOT working

[autumn coral]

whar

[thick panther]

On the Steamodded wiki: https://github.com/Steamopollys/Steamodded/wiki/SMODS.Center

[autumn coral]

that's not very helpful where do i evben run that

not saying ur not helpful just saying the docs suck

but everyone knew that already

[thick panther]

You put that in your SMODS.Joker like where you put calculate = function...

[autumn coral]

oh

gotcha

like this?

[thick panther]

I think so. Ive only used it to disable a non-legendary joker from showing up.

[autumn coral]

alr

honestly 0.025 is way too much

1/20 chance sounds a lot better to me

nah 1/15

does this work even if the rarity is 4

guess not

lemme try it at q3

that. did not work either

😅

oH

no that worked

[thick panther]

nice.

[autumn coral]

it's not consistent though...?

ughhh

i do know there's SMODS.Rarity though i just don't know how to use it

[sonic bone]

weak documentation aside i find steamodded to be quite intuitive

props to the creators

[autumn coral]

me too yeah

[sonic bone]

if an idiot like me can use it

[autumn coral]

oh alright ok sure why not

now we're showing up, are we?

u just said that

[sonic bone]

um

my internet died sorry abt that

[thick panther]

It seems like the documentation is kinda getting better each day? A few days ago, half of the pages were still for the outdated pre-1.0.0 alpha versions of steamodded.

[sonic bone]

yes it was updated just yesterday so i have huge respect for whos tending to it

hold on im curious about something, the docs say that the blueprint_compat argument is cosmetic, but by default nothing is compatible with blueprint unless coded to be, correct?

[thick panther]

Ive had some of my jokers trigger when I didnt include if ... and not context.blueprint, so it it just cosmetic, and they do trigger by default. The blueprint_compat is just for the 'compatible'/'incompatible' message in Blueprint's description.

By default, I think blueprint_compat is set to false.

[sonic bone]

ah ok, context.blueprint is for when its triggered via blueprint

i hadnt understood that for some reason

thank you very much

[gritty valley]

@frosty dock is the main maintainer rn

[mellow plover]

is there a mod template out there for a basic single joker addon?

something i can work with to change and play around with the code and mod

[stiff locust]

https://github.com/Steamopollys/Steamodded/blob/main/example_mods/Mods/ExampleJokersMod/ModdedVanilla.lua this is 10 jokers, but it goes over the basic functions of jokers, very useful to have

it's pretty old by this point but
most of this should still hold up

[mellow plover]

thanks

[shell tangle]

Have there been new fields or SMODS specific functions that need to be added in? I don't know what would need to be updated, but I haven't been paying as close attention to Steamodded over the last month or two.

[edgy reef]

None to my knowledge

[stiff locust]

i heard someone say in passing that some things in the example mods don't work anymore, haven't tested anything myself so idk for sure

[shell tangle]

It was Gros Michel/Cavendish's end of round check getting triggered 6 times because of Retrigger API calling more contexts, it's been patched.

[edgy reef]

Other than retrigger API bugfixing I don't remember anything tied to jokers that would've broken these jokers.

[shell tangle]

Glad to hear it, mostly just double checking in case there was another obvious bug I've missed.

[maiden phoenix]

Wasnt there a glitch where the joker queue was off by 1 if you had SMOD?

[edgy reef]

Got fixed

It actually wasn't "off by one", it was reversed rarity math

[maiden phoenix]

Ah ok cool to know

[tepid crow]

well there was some other weird stuff too

(but yeah seed behaviour should be fixed now)

[frosty dock]

chat should i set up ko-fi?

[tepid crow]

You always can. What's it for?

[frosty dock]

ig just for support for whatever projects I've ended up being a part of here xd

[tepid sky]

whats ko-fi?

[frosty dock]

donation platform basically

[tepid sky]

ah okey

[sonic bone]

how can i destroy a card? joker or otherwise?

[tepid crow]

I'm not sure people are very willing to donate to someone who was part of a project instead of to the project as a whole tbh

(though tbf, I have no personal experience with such things)

[frosty dock]

i mean i do have some of my own projects like black hole, but might be tricky for steamodded

[tepid crow]

Ah yeah personal projects will probably work better

[frosty dock]

I'm top contributor by far and do a lot of organizing and stuff, but I've never claimed it as my project

[tepid crow]

I know Jen set up a donation for his Almanac mod which seemed to be doing alright

[frosty dock]

it's not exclusively dedicated to almanac, i don't think?

well kinda

[crisp coral]

it's definitely personal but with almanac attached

[tepid crow]

Oh you're right, the ko-fi page is pretty general, but the discord channel implies it's mostly almanac + other balatro mods

[crisp coral]

maybe i should plaster my kofi on all of my mods

[tepid crow]

[frosty dock]

:jolly:

[crisp coral]

btw, any updates on the sound api looping delay issue?

[frosty dock]

the what

[crisp coral]

music has a considerable delay when looping

excluding vanilla music

[violet void]

Hello, I am adding support with JokerDisplay (this runs after my custom joker is added correctly with SMODS.Joker)

But I assume it's not added into G.P_CENTERS

How can I get its properties?

or should I just write "hearts" instead (altho it could be useful for future jokers that change suit)

[frosty dock]

you need to use the full key (j_modprefix_enarmored_joker where modprefix is your mod's prefix)

[violet void]

Prefix is
"prefix": "my",

joker key is

    key = "enamored_joker",```

so to get it I would have to type

```my_enamored_joker```

correct?

[tepid crow]

j_my_enamored_joker

[violet void]

my_enamored_joker and j_my_enamored_joker dont work

[tepid crow]

that's a weird error

what does your code look like

because it seems like you're doing j_my_enamored_joker.index when you should probably be doing G.P_CENTERS["j_my_enamored_joker"].index

[violet void]

        local mult = 0
        local text, _, scoring_hand = JokerDisplay.evaluate_hand()
        if text ~= 'Unknown' then
            for _, scoring_card in pairs(scoring_hand) do
                if scoring_card:is_suit(card.ability.extra.suit) then
                    mult = mult +
                        card.ability.extra.s_mult *

        card.joker_display_values.mult = mult
        card.joker_display_values.localized_text = localize(card.ability.extra.suit, 'suits_plural')

[tepid crow]

🤔

[tepid crow]

and you're still getting this error?

[violet void]

yes 😔

Maybe my json is incorrect?

[tepid crow]

I'm not seeing how that's relevant unless I misunderstand the error
oh I did misunderstand, weird that Lua gives an error like that

[violet void]

    "id": "MyJokers",

}```

[violet void]

its where I set the prefix

[crisp coral]

you're taking the value from the center itself

which does not have ability

but rather config

[tepid crow]

yeah yeah Myst is right but it's not really relevant if "field 'j_my_enamored_joker' is nil"

[crisp coral]

and using centers instead of the card means that you cannot change it at all so lol

[violet void]

yes it throws an error in G.P_CENTERS["j_my_enamored_joker"]

[crisp coral]

oh

[tepid crow]

honestly I'd just print the whole G.P_CENTERS at this point

[violet void]

arent there a few jokers that change suit every round like mail in rebate

[violet void]

it crashes on startup tho like when loading the mods

[tepid crow]

then comment out the line that's making it crash

[crisp coral]

a lot of them use global variables

eg G.GAME.current_round.mail_card

[violet void]

I see 🤔

[crisp coral]

https://tenor.com/view/discord-reply-discord-reply-off-discord-reply-gif-22150762

btw please

[violet void]

we were speaking so I thought it was ok (there was a reason), sorry

[violet void]

its that line that crashes

[placid frigate]

is there a way to make the card2:start_dissolve() happened after the scoring of the Joker?

[wintry solar]

Wrap it in an event

[tepid crow]

what line?

[violet void]

colour = lighten(loc_colour(G.P_CENTERS["j_my_enamored_joker"].config.extra.suit:lower()), 0.35)

[tepid crow]

yeah so comment that line out

[violet void]

I did and it doesn't crash anymore, yeah

[tepid crow]

and print out G.P_CENTERS so you can take a look at it

[violet void]

oh I see

[tepid crow]

you can use inspect(G.P_CENTERS) to stringify the first level

[weary jungle]

what

[sonic bone]

if i wanna use pseudorandom_element() to select a random joker, do i pass G.jokers to it? because that doesnt seem to be working for me

it's making pseudorandom_element() return weird values like -1 or false

[shell timber]

you'd want G.jokers.cards

[sonic bone]

fuck me i thought itd be something liek that

tysm

[wintry solar]

how do I target smods files with lovely now?

[weary jungle]

why is this not working

[wintry solar]

show your shader code

[frosty dock]

=[SMODS _ "src/overrides.lua"]

file structure got changed around, that's all

[wintry solar]

👍

[weary jungle]

i copied from ionized, is ionized not a good base

from the edition example

[violet void]

so we were right but why doesn't it work then 😵‍💫

[tepid crow]

is that from inspect? I thought inspect only showed the top level

[wintry solar]

and your smods.shader declaration?

[violet void]

I inspected card when the joker is triggered

[tepid crow]

ah

[weary jungle]

    key = "Cursedshader",
    path = "Cursed.fs"
})```

[wintry solar]

I just set this as target = '=[SMODS _ "src/overrides.lua"]' ?

[wintry solar]

change the filename to cursed.fs

[violet void]

its probably something to do with calling DisplayJoker before adding the joker

[frosty dock]

yeah

[violet void]

but I made sure they are ordered correctly

    local joker = utils.load_joker(filename)
    SMODS.Joker(joker)
end

if JokerDisplay then
    SMODS.load_file("JokerDisplay.lua")()
end```

[weary jungle]

let me try something

[wintry solar]

maybe the key too

[weary jungle]

i did that, same error

not the key one sec

    --0.75X mult
    key = "Cursed",
    shader = "cursedshaderpleasework",```just to be sure, this is how you add the shader?

yeah its not working

let me tell you, this shader sure is cursed

[wintry solar]

oh right yeah

the key needs to match the name of the shader in the shader file

[weary jungle]

let me try that

[wintry solar]

this makes lovely panic D:

[weary jungle]

it worked1!!!!

but still

[frosty dock]

ugh

[tepid crow]

Weird. Try looking at the jokerdisplay docs and how other people do it

[crisp coral]

is it still borked

damn

[weary jungle]

1. why isnt this on the steammoded wiki
2. if they have to be the same, why have 2 different fields???

genuine question

[violet void]

I checked some but I need one specific instance where someone displays the suit

lets see

[frosty dock]

i thought it had worked at one point :v

[wintry solar]

maybe it's on a newer version than I have?

[crisp coral]

oh right it's borked with nested files doesn't it

[weary jungle]

am i being dumb?

[wintry solar]

oh looks like the explanation is on the wrong field

in answer to question 2, the values are in two different files

[weary jungle]

ok, i wasnt being dumb awesome

[frosty dock]

just tried, also borked on my end

[lament rapids]

hey! im trying to make some balatro themed graphics for a tournament and was trying to see if any of y’all have the backgrounds in the game as a video/gif? I’ve found some pictures but not anything moving. asking y’all cus you’re the ones sifting through the game making swag mods

or if you don’t have it is there a way I can get ‘em?

[weary jungle]

this is NOT purple

[teal estuary]

😭

[gritty valley]

Which channels are you boosting?

[weary jungle]

ok now its a bit better

still like not purple

[gritty valley]

Use less red

[weary jungle]

i got to tweak values

[frosty dock]

it's a shader, so there's no way to export as video directly

[gritty valley]

Pure Red + Pure Blue is what we call magenta, the more traditional purple uses less red

[crisp coral]

no, because it's a shader. however, you can install #1228149931257237664 and use (Ctrl+)H to hide all UI elements, leaving only the background and you can record your screen

[lament rapids]

ah okay that’s very helpful. thank y’all so much <3

[sonic bone]

so with the steamodded implementation of create_card() i still need to emplace it, but do i also still need to add_to_deck()?

[crisp coral]

yes

[sonic bone]

fair enough

[crisp coral]

so it triggers effects that happen when it is added to your slots (including Negative!)

and other mods

[rough furnace]

Obligatory https://github.com/WilsontheWolf/DebugPlus/blob/master/docs/dev.md#shader

[sonic bone]

i see, that makes it make a lot more sense

[gritty valley]

Why is my tag not appearing :( SMODS.Tag { key = 'legendary', loc_txt = { name = 'Legendary Tag', text = {"Create {C:attention}a", "{C:legendary,E:1}Legendary{} Joker", "{C:inactive}(Must have room)"} }, min_ante = 12, atlas = 'T', pos = { x = 0, y = 0 }, config = {}, apply = function(self, tag, context) if context.type == "immediate" then local lock = self.ID G.CONTROLLER.locks[lock] = true self:yep('+', G.C.PURPLE, function() if G.jokers and #G.jokers.cards < G.jokers.config.card_limit then local card = create_card('Joker', G.jokers, true, nil, nil, nil, nil, 'legend') card:add_to_deck() G.jokers:emplace(card) end G.CONTROLLER.locks[lock] = nil return true end) self.triggered = true return true end end }

Wait nvm

For some reason it's working now

[violet void]

do you know how can I check the full debug

[tepid crow]

inspectDepth or tprint I believe

[wintry solar]

just do eval print(tostring(G.P_CENTERS['j_my_enamored_joker']))

[violet void]

the thing is it crashes when I do G.P_CENTERS['j_my_enamored_joker'] and I'm suspecting it has a different name

[wintry solar]

in the debugplus console it'll be fine

[tepid crow]

unless you mean scrolling btw in which case, pressing ctrl + / allows you to scroll

[violet void]

it auto-disappears sadly

[nocturne garnet]

Nvm figured it out

Docs are wrong

[tepid crow]

make sure you're using version 1.1.0~dev of debugplus

[wintry solar]

how so?

[gritty valley]

https://github.com/Steamopollys/Steamodded/issues/333

[wintry solar]

You’re not updated

[gritty valley]

I am

But now I am getting a different issue

I'll get back to you

[tepid crow]

### Tag API

are you sure? 🤔 this was updated 20 hours ago

[wintry solar]

You aren’t

[weary jungle]

oops

[thick panther]

missing texture joker

[weary jungle]

jimbo where did you go

[gritty valley]

For some reason context isn't being passed through correctly

It's type field is nil

Which doesn't make sense

[thick panther]

Are you on Steamodded v1.0.0-alpha-1217b?

[gritty valley]

Ok I fixed the issue

Thx for the help y'all

Idk why it wasn't being passed correctly before but I restarted and it worked so I'll take it

[placid frigate]

how do I do that?

[thick panther]

Does anyone know how to remove a card from the hand? I can get a random card chosen with local dCard = pseudorandom_element(G.hand.cards, pseudoseed('mjoker')), but I cant get that card removed.

[gritty valley]

Do you want it to dissolve or be discarded

[thick panther]

Dissolved. Like not in the deck anymore

[wintry solar]

There’s some other stuff you need to do too though

[thick panther]

That works perfectly! Thank you. I didnt realize that process was called disolve

[wintry solar]

We should probably have a utility function for removing cards

[nocturne garnet]

ourple

[weary jungle]

how do i get the location of the pixel thats used

so i can gradein

is it tex.x?

[gritty valley]

Doesn't dissolve handle itself being removed from the deck? Or just the cardarea.

[thick panther]

They are disappearing from the deck, so I think it does work?

[gritty valley]

If it works it works

[nocturne garnet]

do you mean like while playing hand, it destroys a random card in played hand?

[tidal ice]

do the tarot cards use a particular font that I can just import into paint.net

[nocturne garnet]

if so then you should use :remove() i think

if you dissolve it does some weird ghost shit

[gritty valley]

You should also ask in #🎨・fan-art

[thick panther]

No, in the hand, not the played poker hand

[tidal ice]

oh true

[rough furnace]

remopve is all thats nessicaery to destroy a card (I use it for DebugPlus), but I'm not quite sure the process for disolving a card

[tepid crow]

like what? 🤔

[gritty valley]

Well I'm pretty sure dissolve uses remove is the thing

Lemme check

[rough furnace]

yeah dissolve calls remove

[gritty valley]

Yeh

[fallen tendon]

The new steamodded docs are so good

[rough furnace]

shoutout aure for those

[fallen tendon]

Just realized soooooo many things that there are much much easier ways of doing

[placid frigate]

so what's the difference between remove and dissolved?

[rough furnace]

remove just gets rid of the card. Dissolve does thefading effect then calls remove

[placid frigate]

where are the patch notes/ new docs?

[weary jungle]

AHHH!!!!

[gritty valley]

Remove is like literal removal of the object from mem

[weary jungle]

what did i do???

[rough furnace]

https://github.com/Steamopollys/Steamodded/wiki/

[gritty valley]

Fucked up evil jimbo

[weary jungle]

EVIL jimbo be like: -4 mult

[balmy stump]

i wanna make a mod that lets you see future cards for this and the next blind, and what cards are linked to eachother.

[fallen tendon]

Dissolved does the games standard removal animation that also includes the cool shader animation

[tepid crow]

isn't it only particles? no shaders?

[fallen tendon]

Remove just completely thanos snaps the object from existence

[fallen tendon]

No theres both a particle and slight shader effect

[balmy stump]

does the rarity api no longer mess with the games rng

[fallen tendon]

Its best to use dissolve in most cases

[rough furnace]

try it and see ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[placid frigate]

It just...kinda disappears?

[weary jungle]

is texture_coords normalized? if not, what are the dimensin

[tepid crow]

should be fixed since https://github.com/Steamopollys/Steamodded/pull/317 from me and flowwey

[balmy stump]

cool

[balmy stump]

how high is your game speed in this clip

[fallen tendon]

Remove just makes it be completely erased from existence instantly, but dissolve makes it look very pretty

[rough furnace]

4

I think the recorded fps is fairly low

[wintry solar]

If it’s playing cards you’re dissolving you need to remove them from other tables too and call the calculate function

[rough furnace]

depends when you're removing them

[faint yacht]

Does in_pool also prevent spawns by consumables and what not?

[rough furnace]

but yeah in certain parts of calcuation removing them causes ghost cards

[weary jungle]

ummmm

i am NOT getting shaders down

[thick panther]

Would it cause ghost cards in context.joker_main or context.after?

[tepid crow]

Ah, I see. Yeah might be nice to have an easy to use SMODS.remove function for yeah

[rough furnace]

I don't know ff the top of my head

[weary jungle]

what is hapen

[tepid sky]

lol: paint bucket in a nutshell aah shader

[thick panther]

At this point, you might just have to settle with missing texture jimbo

[rough furnace]

SMODS may just be able to add checks in certain parts of calculations for remvoed cards too and then just remove them without a deticated function

[weary jungle]

i just want it to fade to black at the edges

[rough furnace]

well you probably want too figure out if you'reo n the edge or not

first

[tepid crow]

wouldn't it be easier to patch that into Card:remove?

[balmy stump]

looks good to me send it

[rough furnace]

idk wherever

[thick panther]

Is there a way to display a message without using this?

return {
  message = '...',
  colour = G.C.RED
}

[rough furnace]

but it does seem like a common bug that could be fixed

[weary jungle]

card_eval_text iirc?

[faint yacht]

With example for "Upgrade!", card_eval_status_text(card, 'extra', nil, nil, nil, {message = localize('k_upgrade_ex')}).

[weary jungle]

awesome

i love shaders

[tepid sky]

shader: void

lol

[thick panther]

Is it better to use localized string in files like en-us.lua for hardcoded text?

[faint yacht]

I've yet to use a localization file myself, so, can't really say much there. 😅

[balmy stump]

black jokers mod? sounds interesting

[weary jungle]

now if i move my joker over here it had a blue

[balmy stump]

just remove the explanations

[weary jungle]

this is so balls

[placid frigate]

how are you changing the color of Jokers like that?

[weary jungle]

shader

this is NOT what i want

[thick panther]

If I dont have a localized message, would it just be card_eval_status_text(self, 'extra', nil, nil, nil, {message = 'foobar', colour = G.C.RED})?

[balmy stump]

atleast it isnt crashing

[tepid crow]

for localization support, yeah

[placid frigate]

are shaders like an animation for the joker or does it only change color

[weary jungle]

its wierd

its coding

[rough furnace]

it's graphics coding

it can do a lot

like all editions are shaders

the disolve effect is a shader

the background is a shader

is good with shaders

[faint yacht]

Think of the Minecraft's enchantment glow... also could count as a shader imo. 😂

[placid frigate]

where does one find more about shaders and how to use them

[balmy stump]

how do i screw with ui

[weary jungle]

https://thebookofshaders.com/00/ i htink

[balmy stump]

someone please get this voodoo out of my face

[tepid sky]

lol

https://tenor.com/view/supernatural-jensen-ackles-dean-winchester-dean-spn-gif-7766524

[weary jungle]

i am SO bad at shaders

[violet void]

I have that version, maybe its because I have a different keyboard but ctrl + / doesnt do anything

[weary jungle]

is there a way to refresh shaders

like if i make a change to a shader, then i press M, it reinjects the shader?

this is so bad... and its not even working

[placid frigate]

for loc_vars = function(self, info_queue, card) and calculate = function(self,card,context) is the word function defining it as a function or is it the name (the name of this function being named function

[balmy stump]

does anyone have any mods that just alter the ui so i can use them as a reference. @EV3RYONE

[faint yacht]

Function.

[placid frigate]

so the first one

[faint yacht]

Ye.

[violet void]

there, I had to edit the mod code to change it to f12 lol

[fallen tendon]

Isn’t everyone?

Shaders have nothing on regex tho

[weary jungle]

how do i darken a shader so that as you get closer to the edge it gets darker?

regex is life find and replace rigt?

[balmy stump]

by mastering the dark arts

[weary jungle]

i might just settle for purple

but i cqant

i need closeur

[balmy stump]

i felt the same way and eventually after changing a : to a . my code worked, took a extremely long time to figure out that was the problem

[weary jungle]

wrong image

[balmy stump]

lmfao

[weary jungle]

what is a swizzle??????

they just making things up now

[balmy stump]

tf is a swizzle

[weary jungle]

"ah yes the common swizzle bug" insane

[tepid crow]

really? pressing ctrl + / or just / doesn't open the "chat"?

[tidal ice]

I never thought an error message would make me laugh

[violet void]

nope. I had to go and edit the code. now its set to f12

[gritty valley]

Please learn shaders

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swizzling_(computer_graphics)

[tidal ice]

ah

[weary jungle]

im TRYING but im LAZY and i HATE SHADERS!!!!!

[gritty valley]

https://tenor.com/view/threat-gif-26347862

[tidal ice]

thats such a goofy name for an aspect of shaders

[tepid crow]

here's the specific part for opengl https://www.khronos.org/opengl/wiki/Data_Type_(GLSL)#Swizzling

[gritty valley]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Currying

[tidal ice]

crazy

[thick panther]

Should I reword the description to say "held cards"? Also, should it give something positive in return? The deck its used in gives +5 hand size.

[violet void]

so I still dont get why third image crashes

[stiff locust]

what is a turn

[gritty valley]

My personal favorite is "Truthy" and "Falsy"

[thick panther]

Like every played hand

[stiff locust]

then write that instead of every turn

[balmy stump]

the phrasing is good, it should definitely give something good because it is very bad, there isnt a joker that is just a pure negative like that is.

[stiff locust]

after each played hand, destroy a random card in hand

[weary jungle]

im going to change random values till i see anything working

[rough furnace]

whats the crash

[stiff locust]

also if it's

a random card in the hand you play that's played hand/played card

and a random card held in your hand and not played is held in hand/held cards

[balmy stump]

like the 5 or less cards that are played each turn or all the cards in the hand?

[weary jungle]

learning shaders:

[thick panther]

When you play a poker hand, the joker will destroy a random card held in your hand (Where you might keep steel cards, etc)

[weary jungle]

PURPLE?????

release me

[stiff locust]

okay so is it when you play the hand, before the hand is scored, or after the hand is scored

[thick panther]

before scored.

[rough furnace]

https://tenor.com/view/damn-bird-legs-gif-7418853116988366584

[stiff locust]

then it should say "before each played hand, destroy 1 random card held in hand"

[balmy stump]

yeah this joker is pretty much utter dogshit. if you get it at the start of the run and play three hands each round you will loose 72 cards by ante 8, even if you only play 1 hand which blocks you from using most accumulating jokers, its 24, your probably going to have to use discards in order to remove any valuable card that you aren't willing to play, which gets rid of more options. this is more like a challenge deck effect than an actual joker.

although it gets rid of cards its just a huge pain to work around all the downsides

[faint yacht]

This is why the Joker is tied to a deck, as was mentioned above.

[balmy stump]

there isnt a single joker in the game that makes the game harder to play than without it, a lot may not be too useful but it doesnt make the game more difficult. there isnt any point in adding a joker to the game if the negative effects severly outway any positives.

[thick panther]

The idea was that the player would have to buy the standard packs to get more cards so they make sure they dont run out. Maybe I should add some sort of benefit to like? Like maybe it adds the chip value of the destroyed card / 2 to a mult stat that persists for the run?

[thick panther]

They're meant to be like challenge decks. Each have their own unique quirks. Im trying to make sure each have a pro to go with the con, but maybe this joker needs a bigger pro?

[balmy stump]

i would say +3 mult per destroyed card is fair

[weary jungle]

is uv the whole screen?

[balmy stump]

3 cards lost per round till ante 8 is 72 * 3 is 216 mult will make it decent enough to be worth considering early into a run, and considering all the gymnastics needed to get 20 extra cards it isnt too powerful either

considering the fact that this also is a deck thinning card it wouldnt make sense to give any more mult than this

[violet void]

main

local joker_files = {
    "enamored_joker"
}

for _, filename in ipairs(joker_files) do
    SMODS.Joker(utils.load_joker(filename))

if JokerDisplay then
    SMODS.load_file("JokerDisplay.lua")()
end```

JokerDisplay
```local jd_def = JokerDisplay.Definitions

        local mult = 0
        local text, _, scoring_hand = JokerDisplay.evaluate_hand()
        if text ~= 'Unknown' then
            for _, scoring_card in pairs(scoring_hand) do
                if scoring_card:is_suit(card.ability.extra.suit) then
                    mult = mult +
                        card.ability.extra.s_mult *
                        JokerDisplay.calculate_card_triggers(scoring_card, scoring_hand)
                end
            end
        end
        card.joker_display_values.mult = mult
        card.joker_display_values.localized_text = localize(card.ability.extra.suit, 'suits_plural')
    end
}```

Is it possible that JokerDisplay is loaded before the Jokers are added with SMODS.Joker(joker)?

[thick panther]

Thats fair. I think it make sense for the joker to get more powerful the more its fed.

[balmy stump]

i mean the name is gluttony id kind of expect that it would get stronger

[weary jungle]

ONCE I FIX THIS SHADER ITS OVER FOR YALL!!!!

[placid frigate]

how am I able to set up an event after my function of scoring cards

[weary jungle]

WAIT! this is good

im learnin

g

[placid frigate]

that's ccol

[weary jungle]

ok.. all the values are lik all wierd

[balmy stump]

card in hand is an accurate description considering the game itself refers to the 8 or howevery many cards you have as a "hand"

[frosty dock]

Hand -> cards you're holding
Poker hand -> cards you're playing

[balmy stump]

also if your going to give the card +3 mult then nerf the hand size because its pretty much just a buffed painted deck with a weird playstyle atp

[frosty dock]

but the game itself likes to use "held in hand"

[thick panther]

So maybe +1 or +2?

[balmy stump]

yeah

[faint yacht]

held could also be used for Jokers. You're holding them in a specific way, after all.

[weary jungle]

Im going to continue my shader struggle here

[placid frigate]

best of luck

[weary jungle]

i pulled out the desmos, its going down

[balmy stump]

https://tenor.com/view/thanos-memoji-gif-23490017

how does "function G.UIDEF.view_deck(unplayed_only)" check if full deck or remaining deck is selected in the deck menu

[tidal ice]

I love making placeholder sprites sometimes

[hardy viper]

check the callbacks for the buttons

or just look through references

[balmy stump]

how?

[hardy viper]

(to view_deck)

[balmy stump]

like look through uidef like im doing

[hardy viper]

they'll be in that function

[weary jungle]

i did the uv thing

[wintry solar]

iirc it sets unplayed_only to true when you’re on remaining

[split creek]

How would you check the enhancement of a card in hand?

I've been trying to figure it out, but it appears to be different than for played cards

G.hand.cards[i].config.center_key == "m_steel"This is what I'm at currently

[wintry solar]

That looks fine

[thick panther]

Putting this here in case anyone wants the full pattern to the Cartomancer joker.

[brittle stump]

Hi is there any card drawing tutorial

I would love try my hand in it

[thick panther]

I dont think so, but here are some guidelines to follow:

• In your mod's dir, you need an assets directory with 1x and 2x directories inside
• The base Joker sprite needs to be 71x95. That one goes in 1x
• The joker in the 2x dir is just a scaled version of the 1x joker (142x190) for pixel smoothing.
• The resolutions also account for the border (The card frame), so make sure you have that too.
• To add the Jokers sprites to your Joker, you need to use SMODS.Atlas. I recommend looking at the Steamodded wiki (https://github.com/Steamopollys/Steamodded/wiki/SMODS.Atlas) or This post: #1307744498360520805 message

[brittle stump]

Is there like, any card templates

[arctic lion]

just use any of the 150 in-game jokers

or any from the plethora of mods

[thick panther]

heres one for the 1x version

[mystic river]

there's #1224362333208444989, which i hope i linked properly because mobile discord doesn't make it easy if a thread is inactive

oh good that is correct

[brittle stump]

I see only #deleted-channel

[mystic river]

probably because you haven't loaded the thread or whatever
clicking it should still take you there

[brittle stump]

I don't really want to code tho, just make cards for other people to use

[brittle stump]

How this thread is called

Can you ping me here

[arctic lion]

just team up with someone

or make some for fun

but you still need to know the modding requirements

especially if you plan on getting them implemented

[gaunt thistle]

I've got a fix for this in the pipeline. It crashes because it's trying to dump that to a file, but =[SMODS _ "src/overrides.lua"] contains invalid path characters.

[rough furnace]

It shouldn't crash?

I've had a patch with invalid characters forever and it always just printed an error and kept on

[gaunt thistle]

It'll crash here if there's a path separator in the buffer name iirc

You're correct in that the actual file write is checked such that panics are handled

[rough furnace]

oooh

[gaunt thistle]

Yeah, that .parent() call will return =[SMODS _ "src/

[rough furnace]

based

[gaunt thistle]

Unfathomably

I would like to have some sort of pattern to detect if the buffer name is like =[SMODS _ "src/overrides.lua"] as it would make the dumps end up in a logical location

If they don't match that then we can sanitize and dump em to whatever

[rough furnace]

true

hold on

just rewrite this with rust

https://github.com/Steamopollys/Steamodded/blob/main/src/crash_handler.lua#L356-L385

surely something won't change and break it later down the line

[gaunt thistle]

ez pz

makes sense

split by space, match against the first, grab the path at the end, resolve that down to a directory

[rough furnace]

yeah

[gaunt thistle]

Am I right in assuming that the underscore in =[SMODS _ "src/overrides.lua"] can be the mod id?

[rough furnace]

yeah

it's just what SMODS uses for it's internal files

[gaunt thistle]

Are there any limitations on what can and cannot be a mod id?

[rough furnace]

unsure

[gaunt thistle]

heard

[rough furnace]

and then make sure it's okay with ones that don't match, e.g. =hi =[] =[hi] =[john cena]

I think json values allow any arbitry characters as the id

header ones don't allow spaces and newlines

[gaunt thistle]

I almost just want to skip buffer names that don't match

and just print out a warning

but we'll see how complicated it is

[rough furnace]

I think just filter out invalid characters and do a best effort based on the name

[mystic river]

anyway if you want to make art for cards that someone else coded, we've got a bunch lying around in #1308185262664450068
probably so do other mods but i can't rember any offhand

[rough furnace]

like =hi = hi =[john cena] = john cena =[] = ???

and if theres dups cry about it

[gaunt thistle]

those are all actually valid paths

[rough furnace]

oh

[gaunt thistle]

apparently

=[SMODS _ "src/overrides.lua"] crashes ONLY because of the quotes

[rough furnace]

oh quotes ar invalid

[gaunt thistle]

thanks legacy windows

[rough furnace]

I love inheriting quirks from an operating system I don't even use

wine my beloved

[gaunt thistle]

=[COM _ "src/overrides.lua"]

actually that would be fine

[rough furnace]

I'm amking a buffer named just COM

[gaunt thistle]

omg 😊

[rough furnace]

also how will it work with weird named buffers (no = or @)

like DebugPlus Eval

[gaunt thistle]

we can implement a specific case for DebugPlus, but other cases would likely be ugly dumped into whatever the path sanitizes down to

in the same manner that =[OMGWTFBBQ ojdkawodaaw "odkwaopdkoawd.lua"] would

[rough furnace]

I mean no-one is going to patch DebugPlus eval

Just make sure it doesn't crashe

[gaunt thistle]

... for now

heard, will do

I'll make a test suite

[rough furnace]

Someone put a regex patch in their mod that matches return and replaces it with in buffers named DebugPlus Eval and then get popcorn and watch me debug a weird issue for a while

[brittle stump]

Honestly i kinda had idea of creating jokers based on pre existing card games

[violet void]

does anyone know why it keeps crashing on

colour = lighten(loc_colour(G.P_CENTERS["j_my_enamored_joker"].config.extra.suit:lower()), 0.35)

?

[balmy stump]

im really struggling with finding out how to work a ui, can someone point me in the right direction?

[rough furnace]

send crash

[violet void]

JokerDisplay doesn't have G.P_CENTERS with my new joker for some reason

But when I print it in the calculate function it doesnt crash

for context im trying to make the joker compatible with DisplayJoker
it's been really bugging me

how'd i go abouta having a seal removing it self? ._.

am trying with cryptids consumable but it doesn't seem to be working

How do you modify how many joker slots you start with in a deck?

[brittle stump]

I would love joker that looks like this

[sonic bone]

theres a way i can make a joker trigger a message under a different joker right?

[balmy stump]

do you know how to do ui?

i need elp

[wintry solar]

what are you trying to make?

[weary jungle]

?

[thick panther]

Im trying to come up with deck ideas themed around the 7 Deadly Sins. So far, ive already got Greed, Lust, and Gluttony. What do you think works well? Im trying to make sure each deck is unique and each deck has pros and cons (Ex. In Greed Deck, you get a lot more money and start with a lot of money, but your money is tied direcly to your Xmult). Heres what I have so far. What are your thoughts?

-- Deck Ideas:
-- - Pride Deck: Start at ante 3. Pride Joker will randomly either half chips or -3 mult.
-- - Wrath Deck: Wrath Joker Adds/Subtracts mult or chips each played hand in the range of -20 to +20. Doesnt go below 0 chips or 1 mult
-- - Sloth Deck: Start with all hand types at level 5. Can only play 3 cards per hand.
-- - Envy Deck: Envy Joker Replaces the lowest card in your hand with the highest one

[weary jungle]

what does the pride deck give? does it just thrust you into ante 3??

[thick panther]

Pride is supposed to be real confident that it will win, something like "Im so confident that I will win, that I dont need to play the early game". Im thinking Pride and Sloth need better ideas, but im not sure what

[frosty dock]

ooh nice

[edgy reef]

Wait wha

[gaunt thistle]

https://tenor.com/view/meme-american-psycho-business-card-gif-25561759

[frosty dock]

well anyways time to write docs for SMODS.Stake and notice more inconsistencies we glossed over

[autumn coral]

time to make my jokers be able to select other ones (pain and suffering)

but first: time to make it check for which of all of the save files exist in the isaac directory

[gaunt thistle]

that sounds mildly painful

[autumn coral]

it is

[fallen tendon]

i have a feeling that this is not how you are supposed to use SMODS.poll_seal

[wintry solar]

you can use it like that

[fallen tendon]

this does not seem to be doing anything tho

anything wrong with where im using it?

[wintry solar]

oh

guaranteed

[fallen tendon]

spelling

the worst enemy of any programmer

even local thunk spelled consumable as consumeable through all the balatro code

[violet void]

I was so confused when I searched for "consumable" and got nothing

[fallen tendon]

how do you detect when a certain sound is playing?

i need an event to specifically trigger when a sound finishes to get the correct effect

either that or a fixed delay

[rough furnace]

Whats JokerDisplay.lua look like?

[frosty dock]

someone please remind me what unlocked_stake does and how i can make it not look jank af for docs

[rough furnace]

https://tenor.com/view/confused-bird-we-just-dont-know-question-mark-gif-15950567

[wintry solar]

iirc its either the key for the stake it unlocks when you beat it or it doesn’t do anything

[frosty dock]

guessing that's close enough to the 'nothing' side of that

fun

yeah it definitely doesn't do anything like unlocking stakes

[frosty dock]

maybe i should leave it out of the docs

https://github.com/Steamopollys/Steamodded/wiki/SMODS.Stake

[fallen tendon]

why did local thunk have to make it so hard to bypass the speed system

trying to get an event to trigger at a very precise time in relation to a sound playing

[weary jungle]

                        if v.ability.set == 'Joker' and ((v.ability.edition and v.ability.edition.key ~= "e_negative")) then
                            table.insert(NonNegativeJokers, v)
                            print(v.ability)
                        end
                    end```this isnt working

[mental kiln]

How can I change mods folder location

[fallen tendon]

is there a way to change where a consumable goes when being used? i want my consumables to stay where they are

[autumn coral]

what variable stores how many hands the player has currently

hm

i found it

hmmm

[placid frigate]

so after playing with my Joker (takes played hearts cards and dissolves them) and I'm left with these blank spots in my hand, what are they and how do I get rid of them?

also on final Ante so all my Jokers are fliped, I am only using base game Jokers and my modded one

[frosty dock]

that happens when you don't destroy cards the right way iirc

[placid frigate]

what is the right wat to

if card2:is_suit("Hearts") then ---increment Xmult value by adding increase to the Xmult value card.ability.extra.Xmult = card.ability.extra.Xmult + card.ability.extra.Xmult_mod G.E_MANAGER:add_event(Event({ func = function() ---destroy the card card2:start_dissolve() return true end })) end end

this is my code for disslove

or where can I find how to do it

[frosty dock]

where is that

[placid frigate]

in calculate

this is my whole code

[frosty dock]

you should use context.destroying_card for this

https://github.com/Steamopollys/Steamodded/wiki/Guide-‐-Joker-Calculation#destruction

[placid frigate]

do I put this with my other context

[frosty dock]

no, instead of it

take something like

if not context.blueprint and context.destroying_card and context.destroying_card:is_suit('Hearts') then
  card.ability.extra.Xmult = card.ability.extra.Xmult + card.ability.extra.Xmult_mod
  return true
end
if context.joker_main and ... then ... end

[lavish sail]

Would anyone be able to help me figure out why Talisman is causing my game to crash on load? I've got the most up to date versions of the game, Lovely, and Steamodded and I've tried removing all other mods and still the same issue. I am able to load with earlier versions of Talisman (versions before 2.0), I really would like to get Talisman working so I can have it for dependency with Dread Jokers mod. Thanks for any help anyone can provide!

[frosty dock]

for starters it would help to see the top of the crash, what's in this image is the uninteresting part

[lavish sail]

Sorry, let me grab a screenshot of it real quick

[placid frigate]

does this do the dissolving animation or only makes them disappear?

[lavish sail]

Here's the top of the error report

[frosty dock]

it has the animation ofc

[frosty dock]

that's not terribly helpful either I fear

[fallen tendon]

how do you get only the first character of a string?

need it for suit prefix making

[placid frigate]

awesome thanks

[frosty dock]

if it's for suit prefixes, you shouldn't

[fallen tendon]

oh just found change_suit

[frosty dock]

SMODS.change_base:

[lavish sail]

Oh darn, I was really looking forward to gettting to the bottom of it. The Dread Jokers mod I found looks so interesting but I guess I will have to do without. Thank you for your time anyway!

[frosty dock]

it's just that I don't think I've ever seen this exact crash

have you confirmed it loads without talisman?

[placid frigate]

do I still put G.E_MANAGER:add_event(Event({ func = function() ---destroy the card card2:start_dissolve() return true end }))
in the context.joker _main or only keep it in the new Context.destroying_card

[frosty dock]

neither

[lavish sail]

Yep, I take out Talisman and it loads just fine with no issues

[frosty dock]

you don't put it anywhere

destroying_card takes care of that for you

[placid frigate]

ok so the Context.destroying_card replace the event

does it still play the cards being destroyed after the the card scoring?

[frosty dock]

alright then I'm out of simple ideas. Can you send over your mods folder?

[frosty dock]

it does everything sixth sense does when it comes to destroying cards

[lavish sail]

Sure thing! I almost feel special that this is a new error lol

[tepid crow]

You on mac by any chance?

[fallen tendon]

what the hell

why is this error in cardarea

[frosty dock]

judging by the zip file, yes

[tepid crow]

I've seen some thread issues on mac before

[fallen tendon]

this is the code that somehow led to that????

never even calls cardarea once

[lavish sail]

Yes I am

[fallen tendon]

is it somehow related to smods.change_base?

[tepid crow]

Yeah talisman 2.0.1 or 2.0.2 issue on mac

[fallen tendon]

no definitely isnt

time to bust out the debugging tools

[tepid crow]

I believe the previous 1.2.2 version has no such issues

And Math's aware of the issue

[frosty dock]

does macOS have a case sensitive filesystem?

[lavish sail]

Yes, I am able to run the previous version of it just fine. Reason I'm fussing about it has to do with another mod that uses 2.0 as a dependency (Dread Jokers mod pack)

[tepid crow]

Ah, sucks

[frosty dock]

it seems to run fine on my end (on windows) if I take out RoJ and the outdated version of reverie you have in there

[tepid crow]

Yeah people had no issues on windows, only apple

[frosty dock]

no

[lavish sail]

Ah darn, wish I still had my windows computer but it crapped out and the Mac was free from a friend. Glad it can run Balatro at all. I'll just have to wait until Math and company figure out a workaround somehow. Thanks guys for trying!

[karmic kelp]

Is there any documentation for making new booster packs? Or will I have to resort to scraping another mod?

[tepid crow]

Presumably one of the commits between 1.2.2 and 2.0.1 fucked something up but I do not have a mac to test so I really dont feel like taking the time to inspect it haha

[frosty dock]

that's still missing

hold on let me add it, shouldn't be too much work

[tepid crow]

Wasnt there a text file floating around for SMODS.Booster?
Or was that for a different object

[rotund finch]

I'm trying to put some custom decks together and I'm a bit lost. Looking at how other mod decks are put together and looking over the Steamodded wiki, I understand where the config information goes, but I can't find a full list of variables it can affect. I'm aware of a few basic variables like hand size and joker slots, but I can't find all that information in one place. Any help would be appreciated.

[fallen tendon]

LOL

I MANAGED TO MAKE MY BALATRO GAME INSTANTLY CLOSED

COPY TABLE IS FORBIDDEN

[frosty dock]

actually yeah

#1209564621644505158 message

[placid frigate]

I just tryed this and it justs works no bugs or anything

is this all from the wiki?

[frosty dock]

I'll still make my own version to make sure I double check everything for correctness

[frosty dock]

as it should

[tepid crow]

check back.lua:174

[rotund finch]

What's that?

[karmic kelp]

what's the "best" state check for verifying the player's not actively doing something else so they don't modify a card while a calculation is ongoing?
(for a consumable's can_use)

[tepid crow]

https://github.com/Steamopollys/Steamodded/wiki/Mod-Metadata#useful-resources

from the balatro source code

[rotund finch]

I've looked at that, but it wasn't all that clear to me

[tepid crow]

you mean how to unzip the exe into the source code?

[half temple]

with 7zip

it literally gives you an option in the right click menu in explorer to open up games exe as archive

[rotund finch]

No, I can open it fine, it's just that the config info doesn't look like it does with steamodded. I'm not seeing anything that's like hand_size = 4.

[tepid crow]

yeah they're formatted differently

this is e.g. the definition for painted deck @ game.lua:639

b_painted = {name = "Painted Deck", stake = 1, unlocked = false,order = 12, pos = {x=4,y=3}, set = "Back", config = {hand_size = 2, joker_slot = -1}, unlock_condition = {type = 'win_stake', stake=3}},

[rotund finch]

all I'm seeing is stuff like effect.config.joker_slot, but I don't see where the actual variables are being put in

[wooden nexus]

Who here has worked with shaders? I wanted to see if there's any way for me to make a shader but be able to preview it without having to go in and out of Balatro

[tepid crow]

then the Back:apply_to_run (at back.lua:174 like I mentioned before) takes those variables and actually applies them to the run

[tepid crow]

iirc debugplus has a "watch file" command you can use for that

[wooden nexus]

watch file?

[tepid crow]

https://github.com/WilsontheWolf/DebugPlus/blob/master/docs/dev.md#watch

[weary jungle]

whats it doing?

you guys can laugh now

[rotund finch]

Okay, I think I see what the general variables are. I'll need to play around with it more but thanks for pointing me in the right direction.

[wooden nexus]

I was hoping to not constantly load balatro every time i try to make the edition but i can try

also, i'm having a weird crash

[tepid crow]

the point of the watch command is that you don't have to do that

[wooden nexus]

ooh i read it wrong

So I'm trying to make a custom title screen. I have 2 problems with it

1. I can't load the one modded joker from Ortalab when I try to make the custom title screen
2. Any legendary joker just... y'know

Is offcentered

loading Perkeo works but idk why ortalab's joker won't

[frosty dock]

aight here ya go https://github.com/Steamopollys/Steamodded/wiki/SMODS.Center#smodsbooster

[wooden nexus]

Weird. I tried loading caffeyne and it worked

But of course the off-centered/wrong sized sprite is bugging me

thanks, time to make sense of both this and the functioin it references

copied your directly, it also freezes the game

Well you don't have shinkulib obviously

I mean make yours out of my code

SMODS beta is coming together

[split creek]

I did this, I replaced your atlas and pack with mine

same issue occurs

[wooden nexus]

Strange

It's literally the code of Standard pack but changed

[split creek]

What version of smods are you using?

[wooden nexus]

the one from days ago

[split creek]

This is what happens

I've no idea what's wrong since it doesn't crash, and I haven't changed anything since like a month ago

[karmic kelp]

Is there a way to forcibly open a booster pack from the collections menu, like DebugPlus lets you forcibly gain jokers/consumables?

[tepid crow]

might actually release this month year

[split creek]

There were some tag changes committed yesterday, maybe that's the issue?

[edgy reef]

Yes

[tepid crow]

you can spawn them in in the shop and then purchase them, not sure if there's a faster way

[karmic kelp]

oh I need to specifically be in a shop? ok

yup that did it, thanks

[split creek]

Figured out the issue

@wooden nexus
apply = function(tag, context) becomes
apply = function(self, tag, context)

Is there a way to essentially remove the interest cap at the end of the round?

[elder vapor]

set it to an absurd amount

[thick panther]

How would set it to something like 1e100?

[fallen tendon]

would this be a good effect?

[fallen tendon]

look in the code for seed money, theres probably a variable you can change to 9999999999999999999999999999999999

[thick panther]

Is the ["Joker"] part of the following code snippet on the SMODS.Rarity Steamodded wiki page where you put the name of your joker or it that just Joker? If the latter, how do you set a joker to this rarity?

{
    ["Joker"] = true, --uses self.default_rate when polled
    ["Joker"] = { rate = 0.7 },
}

[edgy reef]

This is for adding the rarity into an ObjectType (which "Joker" is created as one).

[thick panther]

How would I add my own rarity that I can set to a joker? Or, override the rarity text to something else?

[edgy reef]

You do rarity = "prefix_custom_rarity" in the joker's declaration like how you'd do for vanilla rarities.

[supple topaz]

is there a way to force the game to display the high resolution textures found in 2x through just the settings? I can't get decent enouogh looking low res textures, so I didn't know if I could just bypass that?

Nvm I might just be stupid

[autumn coral]

i know i'm 100% not going to find my answer here, how do i add a permanent child that is drawn on top of all layers on my joker card and can be configured to be different sprites

i don't even know why i'm asking because, to my knowledge, nobody has done this yet

[thick panther]

So kinda like the vanilla soul card jokers?

[autumn coral]

no

not like that at all

i need to draw on top of that layer

that layer already exists and it has its own separate movement that i cannot use

i already looked through cryptid but what they do isn't what i'm doing

i need to be able to change sprites

this is the spritesheet. i need these to be able to be drawn on top of the joker (on top of all layers) at any time using a function

again i don't know why i'm asking because i did my research and nobody has done this

but hey it never hurts

i'm just driving myself crazy looking through the base game trying to convince myself that i don't need to rewrite the entire Card:draw() function

actually this card:draw isn't even the right fucking function i don't think

💀

i mean i've looked through all of them

imma be real chief i have no fucking clue how shaders work but i'm like almost 100% sure that you can't

also bc i still want this to be compatible with existing ones

[edgy reef]

You can use a shader to draw a sprite

That's what the game does already ("dissolve" is a shader)

Also no you don't need to for this

Just do what SMODS.Sticker does.

Have a table with all the sprites for each level, then check for what level and draw them.

[autumn coral]

i did this and it doesn't work

unless if i need it to be a lovely patch

i'm not joking this is literally 1:1 to what i did

local charges = {
    ["6"]= 1,
    ["4"] = 2,
    ["2"]= 3,
    ["1"] = 4
}

local function draw_charge(card, hold, charge) 
    card.children.charge = Sprite(card.T.x, card.T.y, card.T.w, card.T.h, G.ASSET_ATLAS['wrenbind_charge'], {x=charge, y=charges[tostring(hold)]})
    card.children.charge.states.hover = card.states.hover
    card.children.charge.states.click = card.states.click
    card.children.charge.states.drag = card.states.drag
    card.children.charge.states.collide.can = false
    card.children.charge:set_role({major = card, role_type = 'Glued', draw_major = card})
    card.children.charge:draw()
    print("i should've drawn by now...")
end

i made a new layer to draw over and also had a lovely patch to draw in the main draw function that does the animation and everything as well

[edgy reef]

Thats... not what stickers do

[autumn coral]

i know it's not exactly what they do

[edgy reef]

Unless I'm missing something this is more overcomplicated that what it actually needs to do

Does this need to be interacted with?
