Because you didn’t add a rarity to the actual consumable it crashes
Consumables** don’t have rarities**
Im very confused
#💻・modding-dev

wintry solar
By default….
Adding a rarities to a consumable type tells smods that you are going to add a rarity value from your list to each consumable of that type
You didn’t do that which is why it was crashing
I don’t even see the need in your case, you only defined one rarity so it’s equivalent to not having them at all
violet void
In the future I'll add one alignment that should be more rare than the others

You set the key of the rarity you defined
If default rarities are used can you use numbers or do you have to type "Common" etc?

frosty dock
they literally told you the answer multiple times before that though?
violet void
"Just do X" isnt that helpful
frosty dock
there's nothing more to it though. you're declaring the consumable type have rarities, so the consumables of that type now need to have a rarity
violet void
Ok I see, so this can be used if you're actually using custom rarities and the key needs the key of the rarity not of the consumable
and then I give said rarity to the consumable
that makes a lot more sense now

I have another question
I realise that making my card type a Consumable is incorrect for this use case, I made a new specific cardarea for it (referencing Bettma mod) where the cards in it cannot be selected
(I could just make it consumable but the fact these cards appear in the Consumables area in the collection looks wrong since you cant technically consume them)
-# Unless I can move the collection place somewhere else while still being Consumable but that looks non-standard
Much like how Grim adds its Skills in a different place entirely (in the OTHER category of the collection), but after checking its code it does so only with lovely patches
Im reading the docs but I dont think adding new card types is supported yet, should I go with lovely patches too or is there a different way

you can absolutely add new card types in a more normal way
idk why grim decided to copy vanilla
you can define a new type of SMODS.Center (?) , look into how SMODS.Joker is implemented
the main issue is its not going to be a simple process and would likely benefit greatly from a more thorough understanding of balatro's workings
(as well as that of SMODS)
you will probably have to use lovely for something at some point tho, and its a verryyyyy powerful tool

then you init them just like other smods things

oh, yeah, earlier in this chat, you guys decided that my idea for Rapunzel was too weak to be a rare, but changing it to Xmult means it steps on Obelisk's toes? (I still don't understand how). So you guys suggested I decrease the mult and make it an uncommon.
This is making me consider the rarities of my other jokers.

these are my jokers so far. Rapunzel isn't yet fully programmed, and I do have one more planned.

looks like you want this instead of your return ret line and the above
if other_joker_ret then
other_joker_ret.card = context.blueprint_card or self
other_joker_ret.colour = G.C.BLUE

end```
What I'm getting from this is that Blueprint *is* retriggering the other joker, but then moving the card bounce/text/etc. onto itself so that it looks like Blueprint is triggering.ohh shit okay i see

blueprint steals the return of calc functions for its effect ye

your card areas are of type 'deck'

It does error out at redefining of the function, though. [SMODS _ "src/loader.lua"]:571: [SMODS TOGAPack "togastuff.lua"]:165: function arguments expected near 'function'

return issuitref(self, suit, bypass_debuff, flush_calc)

you can't use : like that
that's only for calling and defining functions, not for creating vars to refer to a function
local issuitref = Card.is_suit
faint yacht
Well, works... but it really only accepts up to 3 suits for a Flush. What do I change for it to work with Smeared Joker for all suits then?
frosty dock
you'd have to check manually if it exists

If both exist in hand, just return true?

I think what I'm planning for smods should cover such a case too and not be completely broken with modded suits

Did lovely just change loading order again?
primal robin
When needed i'm switching between versions to make sure my mod works on all of them
mystic river
0.7.0 did
0.7.1 undoes some of that (specifically the inconvenient parts) but i don't recall if it reverted all of it
rough furnace
don't use 0.7.0 it's ordering is busted
0.7.1 has a new ordering system which is designed to replicate 0.6.0's windows behaviour but may have tiny differences (but shouldn't change across platforms or future versions now)
primal robin
Even when i'm not using 0.7, some players can. That's why i'm trying make mod work on all of them
rough furnace
specifically on 0.7.0 regex patches run after all pattenr patches of any priority
it was unlisted as latest version when made and hot patched in like less than a day
people should not be using 0.7.0

type = 'descriptions',
key = self.class_prefix .. "_locked",

if self.locked_loc_vars and type(self.locked_loc_vars) == 'function' then
local res = self:locked_loc_vars(info_queue, card) or {}
target.key = res.key or target.key
target.vars = res.vars or target.vars

nope

Then something may be afoot.

In that case... assuming you're on latest versions of Talisman and SMODS...
x_chips = card.ability.extra.Xchip,
xchip_message = {message = localize{ type = "variable", key = "a_xchips", vars = { card.ability.extra.Xchip } }, colour = G.C.CHIPS, sound = "talisman_xchip"}
couldve sworn i tried x_chips and it didnt do anything either
ill try again
still nothing
faint yacht
Well, what versions of SMODS and Talisman are you using?

1325b for smods and latest for talisman

Latest release of Talisman or latest commit of 2.1.0-dev?

Then try latest commits instead.

Hey y'all, quick question: How would you change the card color from white to black, I'm looking to mod in a deck texture that was designed to be white on black, and I know how to change the art, but is there a simple way of changing the card base color?
lethal mural
still nada
gonna try something
OK that fixed it
i had to move this outside of extra
it works now
flame fake out is funny
faint yacht
¯_(ツ)_/¯
gaunt thistle
loving that art
signal notch
it works now
oh wow, that's an awesome idea
I love to see people in the community coming up with unique balanced (ish) ideas rather than stuff that ends up breaking the game
lethal mural
the card in dungeons and degenerate gamblers that its based on halves all card values (queen of wonderland)
obviously it just being 0.5x chips would be a really shitty card, and 2x hand size would be like literally legendary material so i went with 1.5x
charred halo
did i brick something really bad here or is it something else thats causing my joker to not work
gaunt thistle
what is it doing vs what do you expect it to do?

Hello actual mod devs. I'm pretty new to this scene, but I had a question I haven't been able to solve. Im trying to reskin the basic card suits and rename the relevant cards, and editing the textures and localization has been fine. But I cant seem to find where in the files the colors for the suit text is. I found the HEX codes in globals.lua, but changing those doesnt seem to change anything? Am I looking in the wrong place?

Does anyone know why card == self isn't working here:
calculate = function(self, card, context)
if not context.game_over and not context.blueprint and not context.repetition and context.end_of_round then
local cards_to_destroy = {}
for i = 1, #G.jokers.cards do
local curr_card = G.jokers.cards[i]
if curr_card.ability.eternal or curr_card == self then
cards_to_destroy[#cards_to_destroy+1] = curr_card
end
end
for _, card in pairs(cards_to_destroy) do
destroy(card, "82FF92", nil)
end

It's detecting everything but itself

it is weird that changing the hex colors didn't work tho, you should just be able to change G.C.SUITS in globals.lua
heady quail
Well as far as I can tell, there is no G.C.SUITS in globals.lua
Like theres these, but no changes were affected
native cargo
Should I look into the github repo for lovely to figure out how it works, or should I just download a bunch of mods that utilize it and see their use cases and figure it out that way? I'm attempting to mod in another type of "currency" we can call it and I figure that it's probably going to need to utilize lovely's patching in one or another to do so.
cedar stream
so i have a question, how much of a no no is using copying code and sprites and using it in your own mod without permision considered on a scale from 1 to 10
native cargo
Probably a good 9.5 without permission
Check if they have any type of Open Source license though and follow with that. Definitely should get permission if you're going to copy other peoples assets or code though.
normal crest
Well as far as I can tell, there **is** no G.C.SUITS in globals.lua
it's in the picture you sent, SO_2 is for high contrast and SO_1 is normal, depending on the option selected, G.C.SUITS gets updated in functions/button_callbacks.lua at refresh_contrast_mode

@rough furnace
rough furnace
for my mods follow the license
if its like a really short snippet I can give permission to use it without the license

but i mean say it was like 5 or more consumables, same exact code and art
normal crest
for any mod follow the license, if it has no license you should ask the owner for permission
cedar stream
thanks
heady quail
Ok, so if I change the hex codes here, it should change the suit colors correct? Because I changed them to match the new suits and im still on normal colors. Should I be doing something in functions/misc_functions.lua as well? Becuase I dont see any editable values in there
small moon
New question: Does anyone have any idea why this is triggering on all the held in hand cards as well as the joker, and duplicating and erroring for each (as seen in clip)
calculate = function(self, card, context)
if not context.game_over and context.end_of_round then
local reward = 0
if pseudorandom('boingular_roulette') < 1 / (G.GAME.probabilities.normal * card.ability.extra.odds) then
reward = -G.GAME.dollars
else
reward = card.ability.extra.reward
end
card:juice_up(0.3, 0.4)
return {
message = localize { type = "variable", key = "p_dollars", vars = { reward }},
dollars = reward
}
end
end
I only want it to trigger once as the joker on round end
normal crest
Ok, so if I change the hex codes here, it *should* change the suit colors correc...
How did you change them
heady quail
By editing the values in the hex code
Heres the original codes
Heres my edited ones
normal crest
SO_2 is high contrast so make sure you have that enabled
heady quail
All in globals.lua
heady quail
SO_2 is high contrast so make sure you have that enabled
I do, all my edited sprites are for High-Contrast
normal crest
So I assume you're just modifying the game files directly? No lovely?
heady quail
Yes? I mean I just thought lovely was part of the mod loader, I didnt know it was a mod editor
I do have it set up as an actual mod, not just base game file editing
As in I do have smods and lovely set up for this
normal crest
And could you describe the process you're using to edit the game files
heady quail
Sure
So I have an actual mod setup in me roaming folder that all these changes have been saved in
normal crest
Oop right there it's the issue
heady quail
?
I thought since I've been able to change the sprites for the cards themselves, changing everything was pretty much on the table
Is it just not?
normal crest
Can you send your globals.lua file
heady quail
normal crest
and DestinyTexturePack.lua
normal crest
Okay so, the entry file to your mod is DestinyTexturePack.lua
that means that the code in that file is run
No other files are loaded, and since you're not loading your globals.lua file from your entry file, globals.lua is not doing anything
Another thing, you shouldn't override everything the way you did
heady quail
I mean, I never edited any of the actual original game's files
Honestly, all I did for the entry lua was change the mod name and ID, the rest of that isnt my code
normal crest
Ah I see
heady quail
But if theres a better way to do so, I am very willing to change it
normal crest
Your entry file is marked as an entry because it has the steamodded header at the top, considering your sprites are changing that file is fine
The way to modify game code is using lovely patches, but I believe they are not necessary here
heady quail
Interesting, I never heard of those while I was researching
normal crest
within this function you should be able to modify the colors table directly, for example, by doing
G.C.SO_2 = {
-- blah blah
}
So just putting the G.C.SO_2 with the updated HEX codes right into the starter lua?
normal crest
yes, I believe that will work
are you familiar with lua, or is this your first time modding anything
heady quail
Fist time modding anything
Im familiar with bash and languages like that, but Ive never messed with game code before
normal crest
within the entry file in your mod you can run any kind of code you want, the entire file will be ran once balatro loads
generally you use this to interact with the steamodded API (which you do here by using SMODS)
heady quail
So the ONLY code changes whatsoever should be in the entry file?
normal crest
unless you manually load another file from within your entry, yes
heady quail
Interesting
normal crest
the entry is denoted by the steamodded header in your case
and you should not have multiple files with the header
heady quail
Changing that is going to take a lot more research then lol, since all my name changes were through changing the localization file
normal crest
within this function you should be able to modify the colors table directly, for...
you should be able to change the colors with this
tepid crow
this is also using a really old version of steamodded btw, this code might not even work right now
heady quail
Yeah I dont doubt that lol
I could find very little in terms of info on how to get started, so I kinda just grasped at whatever straws I could find
normal crest
https://github.com/Steamodded/smods/wiki here is an installation guide
tepid crow
yeah makes sense
normal crest
if you're familiar with other languages you should be fine
normal crest
it's not
heady quail
Then I dont know how mines out of date then
normal crest

if you're familiar with other languages you should be fine
Well, I know a bit of bash, but thats VERY different from anything like this lmao

what kind of texture pack is this btw? just for playing cards?
heady quail
what kind of texture pack is this btw? just for playing cards?
Playing Cards, Jokers, pretty much everything when I plan on being done
Plus maybe dabbling in some custom new cards once thats all figured out
Trying to learn new things I guess
tepid crow
alright give me 1 sec, I'll try and see if I can find you some example mods
normal crest
yeah the steamodded org has a repository with examples in github
heady quail
I tried looking through a six-suits mod I found as an example for changing the suits, but I had no Idea how to use that to change the existing suits
The reskins themselves have been fine for the most part
Renaming, respriting, Ive had no plroblems there
The text colors have been my only hangup as far as texture pack-ing goes
Im sure once I move on from that step and try (and if Im being honest probably fail) to learn now to create new jokers and such, ill need a lot more work on that stage
normal crest
https://github.com/Steamodded/examples this is the repo for examples
DeckSkinTemplate is a template for adding skins to cards I believe
heady quail
I mean I can see how that would help in changing the sprite itself (if Im interpeting this correctly), but I dont really see how that helps with the text
normal crest
Yeah that's for changing sprites, which you should use instead of what you currently have
As for changing the colors you really should just be able to override them by adding the code I sent earlier within you entry file somewhere
heady quail
Ill admit, I dont really get the part about changing only specific suits, but doing it all within one image file?
Also yead I did that, I must have done it wrong though because it didnt make any changes
I did find the NegateTexturePack example, and that at least makes a bit more sense

Thank you so much!
Sorry for making you essentially do all my work for me lol. I'll be honest I really have no idea whatsoever im doing
Though weirdly, it looks like I need to turn off and on high-contrast every time the game loads?
Welp, guess I'll have to start from scratch in this entry-lua-only way lol
normal crest
Though weirdly, it looks like I need to turn off and on high-contrast every time...
yeah it's not a good way of doing it, it was just meant for you to notice the changes
heady quail
Hm
normal crest
A better way would probably be hooking into the game function responsible for refreshing the sprites, but I assume you're unfamiliar with that concept too
heady quail
Yeah lol
Pretty much anything to do with modding or lua code whatsoever, just assume I know nothing
normal crest
here is a good example of what it implies
heady quail
Ok, Im starting to realize Im going to need, like, a 6-month cource on the code languange before I even START to think about touching this pack, I am extremely overwhelmed lol
normal crest
but yeah, if you do not know anything about lua you might want to get yourself familiarized with it, you need at least to understand the basics, considering you know bash you'll probably learn quickly
heady quail
I mean idk, my bash knowledge is not really helping me at all here
And its like, Im ok at rudementary bash
But thats about it
normal crest
Most languages have these concepts, variables, assignments, if statements, functions, loops
I am not personally very familiar with bash but I assume it has all of those as well
heady quail
I mean yeah, but I've barely even steppin into that realm myself after like, over a year of learning
Ive made, like, a single script and its EXTREMELY basic
normal crest
well don't let yourself get overwhelmed! it's not as hard as it might seem at the start, and there are many people here willing to help
heady quail
Most of my training was in basic file manipulation, directory traversal, stuff like that
Very little scripting
And thats AFTER an actual 6 months of professional training
Honestly, this is just kinda stressing me out lol. Im suppsoed to be trying to get better at stuff like this, since atm Im trying to get into a cybersecurity field. But idk, ive stagnated after getting my first cert and ive lost so much of what I knew, and Im not sure im able to learn a whole new language while trying to relearn my old one
I'll be honest, I from what I though I had seen, I had kinda ssumed it'd all be relatively simple lol
heady quail
Sorry, not trying to vent
Not at all no, I've never even seen lua code before yesterday when I started all this
native cargo
I understand your frustration, it took me 3 days to get a new consumable slot showing up in game. I've been trying to learn off using other peoples source code and using the smods and the balatro source code itself to figure things out.
The book is good way to help familarize yourself with Lua stuff without going through a step by step tutorial
heady quail
I mean its not really frustration, its just stress about my own inadecuacies with coding in general, and I'll be honest, if this project is going to require learning a whole new coding language, I don't really know if I can justify that to myself. Im already EXTREMELY behind just keeping up with my current basic knowledge, and I got certified 6 months ago. Atm I need to focus on trying to get maybe more certs, because my attempts to get into the field have been entirely unsuccessful (And to be entirely honest, I probably havent been trying 50% as hard as I should).
Again, sorry for venting, I didnt mean to get into a whole tirade about this. If im being honest to myself, I probably should just give up on the project as a whole if this is what its going to require

I cant really justify to myself learning all of lua just for a silly little resprite
native cargo
Lua is extremely useful in every day fields. Think of it like this. You're learning lua to code a mod for a game, that maybe somewhere in the future you can use that skill to write some type of automation script or whatever for a Cybersecurity task. Python isn't the only scripting language out there.
heady quail
I mean I dont even know python lol

Yeah, thats probably what its going to have to be. I honestly hate the way my brain operates. I have things that would make an actual practical impact on my life, since I dropped out of college due to covid and I've had so much help from others around me to try and figure things out. But as SOON as anything slightly distraction related turns its head, I completely lose interest in what I should be doing to gravitate there. I took a course in cybersecurity that ended a year ago, and I still ahvent even gotten CLOSE to getting into even any kind of entry level.
