To be fair they might not know what to search

[red flower]

i just assume many people here don't know how to read code

[zealous glen]

Though they could’ve searched some effect like Grim

Personally I try to tell people what I remember and otherwise I tell them to look it up

[agile thistle]

heartbreaking: this is a good point🥀

[finite kernel]

sorry

[gilded goblet]

tru, and theres really no shame in that tbf, just leaving that clear for anyone who reads up on this

[finite kernel]

it does work

lua make me angry

[gilded goblet]

as long as they're trying to put in the effort to learn

[gilded goblet]

welcome to the club 👍

[agile thistle]

i think its good to read the manual though

before you start anything

[heady siren]

I've been modding Garry's Mod for years so lua is basically my native language [=

[agile thistle]

that way you have an understanding of basic things at least

[red flower]

i unironically love lua so i dont understand when people complain

[finite kernel]

lua is great but i have java brainrot

[gilded goblet]

it has some issues but it's unironically a great language

[red flower]

i hate java

[heady siren]

People being used to other languages and not liking that lua doesn't do all the same stuff the other languages do

[agile thistle]

i only dont like lua because of the natural language

i hate your thens and ends

[finite kernel]

one thing i find kind of silly is no ++ or +=

[finite kernel]

also this

[agile thistle]

rainbow brackets allll the way

❤️

[heady siren]

I specifically like then and ends

[finite kernel]

the ammount of times ive typed if (..) {

only to get slapped

[agile thistle]

which another thing

[gilded goblet]

same lmao

[red flower]

maybe im too used to python

[agile thistle]

tables use {} because they can act both as classical arrays and structs

and it pisses me off

[heady siren]

Tables are tables [=

[chrome widget]

Out of curiosity, I'm using quantum enhancements, and I have this card that treats lucky and glass cards as interchangable. But for some reason it crashes when using Justice or Magician. Does anyone know why?

    if context.other_card.config.center.key == 'm_lucky' then
        return {
            ['m_glass'] = true,
        }
    elseif context.other_card.config.center.key == 'm_glass' then
        return {
            ['m_lucky'] = true,
        }
    end
end```

[stiff locust]

how do I make an enhancement conditionally give mult

I should've figured this out by now but it just isn't working and i don't know why

[manic rune]

uhh wat u mean by that

[heady siren]

context.main_scoring and return {mult = #}

[stiff locust]

ohhhhhh context.main_scoring

[heady siren]

Yeah, individual is for jokers

[stiff locust]

not context.individual and context.cardarea

[heady siren]

main_scoring is for enhancements

[stiff locust]

riight okay yeah that makes sense

[heady siren]

Just make sure to do context.cardarea == G.play or it'll do it from your hand too

[stiff locust]

i was about to make that mistake lol

[zealous glen]

I think Quantum Enhancements are just broken now

I don’t know if your code is also broken

But—

[agile thistle]

why are they though 🥀

[chrome widget]

Was this due to a recent smods update?

[agile thistle]

i even looked through recent smods it looked fine

[chrome widget]

Oh damn changing enhancements via debug breaks now too

This did work before

[zealous glen]

Ah you’re not in the SMODS server

I can’t ping you there

[chrome widget]

Yeah I don't usually hang out there directly

[stiff locust]

there's an smods server?

quantum enhancement is broken rn?

[zealous glen]

Seemingly

[manic rune]

ack

[next timber]

why are some of the cards missing???

[manic rune]

i was about to add relics that use quantum enhancements too

[chrome widget]

Yeah let me hop in

[zealous glen]

We lost them to drug addiction

[red flower]

i havent used any optional features yet

[zealous glen]

N’ has only used 1% of their power

[agile thistle]

toxic metals. in your Cards.

[next timber]

lol

but seriously does anyone know why the deck is just sniping random cards when it loads

[zealous glen]

Maybe the remove combined with pseudorandom

That sounds like it would randomly remove cards

[next timber]

the remove is just on a list of indices though, that shouldnt be removing entire cards from the deck surely

[finite kernel]

so my code is creating the cards properly, but apparently adding them to your hand is a different thing lol

so they just float around

[zealous glen]

It is indeed different

[finite kernel]

does smod have stuff for adding cards to your hand

[stiff locust]

you need to emplace them in an area

idk if this works differently for playing cards

but for jokers you have to do G.jokers:emplace(card) to put them in the G.jokers cardarea

so maybe you need to do that with your playing card?

check certificate code

[finite kernel]

will do

[spiral crown]

getting a "'then' expected near 'equals'" error here

[chrome widget]

What's the best check to not do certain sprite stuff if something is in the collection?

I thought it was checking if card.area.config.collection but that doesn't seem to work?

[hushed field]

if card.area and card.area.config.collection then is how i check for showing things exclusively in the collection

[manic rune]

and >=

[hushed field]

ohh, hmm

[thin anchor]

hi

[manic rune]

...and dollarcalc >=...

omg random dude

[modern kindle]

winter just jumpscared me with summer

[spiral crown]

[manic rune]

[modern kindle]

autumn...

[agile thistle]

never have i seen this be the case

[stiff locust]

snow is the sequel to water

[manic rune]

what about ice

[zealous glen]

Evil idea: SUPERHOT but it’s Balatro

[spiral crown]

*easier to understand... used psuedorandom to generate a random number and then if statements to check where the number was between to create a range of outcomes

[zealous glen]

It doesn’t?

[chrome widget]

No

[zealous glen]

Wait shouldn’t it be card.area.config == ‘collection’

[modern kindle]

evil idea, balatro but if it were balatro

[hardy viper]

there's no way =< is valid syntax right

[manic rune]

man

[agile thistle]

speaking of this i still hate you lua why don't you have switch statements

[manic rune]

april fools is already over

[thin anchor]

its gonna snow soon
minnesota is such a fun state

[zealous glen]

Do you know SUPERHOT?

[agile thistle]

really really boring one tbh

[manic rune]

when are we gonna have a += 6...

[hushed field]

That exact check works for only displaying my legendary's quests while in the collection, though

[modern kindle]

i might

[manic rune]

[zealous glen]

Imagine having to shake the mouse to progress events

[spiral crown]

it seems fine, used to that being "less than or equal to"

[red flower]

superhot vr is really cool

[agile thistle]

what

[hardy viper]

more like equal to or less than

[agile thistle]

this isn't even how it works in like

regular math

[hardy viper]

i hate that that's allowed

[modern kindle]

dont worry bestie i got you

[zealous glen]

[thin anchor]

i love your mod

[zealous glen]

It is the symbols are just very close to each other

[stiff locust]

anyone know why this code wouldn't be scoring every card held in hand

for i = 1, #G.hand.cards do
                context.scoring_hand[#context.scoring_hand + 1] = G.hand.cards[i]
            end

[modern kindle]

yea, im lowbut i put in good time

[zealous glen]

Me too

[red flower]

i think balatro is my most played game but 70% of that is mod testing

[modern kindle]

its my favorite game series

i would have like

150 hours of balatro

[hushed field]

Dishonored is also genuinely one of my favorite games. I've beaten that game like 25 times

[zealous glen]

[manic rune]

if steam wasnt blocked in my country

:l

[zealous glen]

Though my most played is DotA 2

[next timber]

my most hours on a game is just like 250 on celeste

[stiff locust]

i wish i could see how many times ive opened balatro

[modern kindle]

across the series of dishonored ive put in 610 in dishonored 1, 521 in dishonored 2, and and 478 in doto

[zealous glen]

is doto DotA 2

[manic rune]

i haven't seen dishonored 2, but

dishonored 1 got me kneeling

[modern kindle]

no, death of the outsider

for dishonored

[hushed field]

2 has some amazing level design

[gilded goblet]

i used to love playing dishonored

so good

[modern kindle]

2 has the best level design but the storyt was so lackluster

[hushed field]

Dishonored runes mod 🤔

[manic rune]

dishonored mod in balatro

[thin anchor]

i only have around 20 hours on balatro on steam because i got the game on my switch first

[hushed field]

I didn't love the story of two, but I enjoyed it a lot still

[manic rune]

lets go

[hushed field]

But it's flawed just because it has to repeat a premise, honestly

[modern kindle]

i just didnt like that was basically 1 again

lmao

[zealous glen]

Have you played the Portal series

[modern kindle]

my balatro time isnt that high yet

taller than most girls over here honestly

[digital niche]

anyone knows why this is happening?

im only like 68 kg but im stronger than most people i know

[modern kindle]

u gave this ur highest rating on letterboxd didnt u

[hushed field]

No I have a grudge against this movie because I was tricked into watching it as a child by my cousins who told me it was Grease 3 (and child me loved Grease 1 and 2)

[modern kindle]

get trolled lmao
my sister loved those movies

[manic rune]

the fact i dont know any movie at all:

[stark geode]

So I'm having an issue where when I switch pixel art smoothing on or off the game unloads it and loads the vanilla textures

[modern kindle]

watch the lord of the rings
watch braveheart

[zealous glen]

What about the Paw Patrol movie

[manic rune]

nop

[agile thistle]

https://m.imdb.com/title/tt11127388/

The what

[zealous glen]

I’m interpreting the title like Rise of the Skywalker

[manic rune]

what is grease even about

??

[modern kindle]

being a bad boy and dancing

[agile thistle]

grease

[zealous glen]

Do you have x2 assets

[stark geode]

Yes

[hushed field]

being a bad girl and singing

[zealous glen]

eating grease

[stark geode]

It goes back to vanilla

[modern kindle]

lmfao

[stark geode]

Unless I restart the game

[manic rune]

wtf ....

[stark geode]

Then it applies my textures

[chrome widget]

Anyway wrapping back around to this, I have this joker that sets sprite pos, but clearly this check doesn't stop it from changing 1 sprite pos on the atlas

[thin anchor]

i really want to make shadrs but they are scary!!!

[manic rune]

oh, i think most mods suffer from this too

[stark geode]

Bruhhhh

There's no like function I can hook or something

[zealous glen]

I replied to you above

[zealous glen]

@chrome widget

[modern kindle]

yea here it is if you didnt see @chrome widget

oop

apologies

[zealous glen]

Hold M I guess

[chrome widget]

This also doesn't work, seemingly

[stark geode]

Well I'm planning on releasing this as a mod lol

[zealous glen]

Maybe it’s applying to the center rather than the card

So it’s changed for every future instance of it

[manic rune]

can u try printing card.area.config and see if it actually runs

🤔

[zealous glen]

Does it work when you load the game before starting a run?

[manic rune]

i remember figuring out a method to change only the current instance's sprite

but im off my pc rn, fuck

💔

[chrome widget]

I'm only checking in the collection rn

oh wait

[stiff locust]

must score cards held in hand

for i = 1, #G.hand.cards do
                context.scoring_hand[#context.scoring_hand + 1] = G.hand.cards[i]
            end

code not working
i tried moving it to my lovely patch for the splash effect and it didn't work there with scoring_hand either what do I do

[hushed field]

oh yeah, are the cards in the collection real cards? 🤔 or are they fake card objects?

[zealous glen]

Real baby

[stark geode]

Well

[stiff locust]

there is one of those in fortune

mr debugplus fixed a sprite changing code i had to make it only do current instance

[chrome widget]

I needed to change the check, because apparently cards in the collection don't have card.area

It's nil

[zealous glen]

That sounds incorrect

[hushed field]

ooh yeah, that's on the config

no it's how i do it too

[zealous glen]

Oh

Maybe that’s it

[chrome widget]

So is it card.config.area.collection?

[hushed field]

no wait, i'm reading too quickly and misinterpreting

if card.area and card.area.config.collection then works for me, but that's not on the sprites, but on the info_queue

[zealous glen]

this works for me

[manic rune]

if no one seems to have the answer, you can try printing the entire card and see what leads to collection ❤️

[chrome widget]

I tried printing card.area, it returns nil

[zealous glen]

this has always worked for me

[thin anchor]

i ~~hate ~~ love april fools

[chrome widget]

At the time of set_sprites, area is nil I guess

[next timber]

it seems my problem in debugging my mod has gone from figuring out why something is happening to figuring out when its happening

[zealous glen]

Ah, maybe the card is created and then emplaced into an area

[next timber]

we love errors that arent easily reproducible!!

[zealous glen]

which is why it doesn't have an area at the time the sprite is set

I mostly use this to make tooltips

[chrome widget]

Hmm

[hushed field]

the collection area only exists while the collection is open, right?

[zealous glen]

Yes

[chrome widget]

This is annoying, I don't want to make the extra sprites in the collection if I don't need to

[zealous glen]

hence the first line here

[hushed field]

perhaps you could see if it sets a global, then check for that global

[zealous glen]

Maybe see how Bunco handled it

[manic rune]

wait, how about

adding a while loop in an event, which stops when card.area exists?

[chrome widget]

hmm yeah if I return when the area is nil specifically, it'll fail to create the sprites even when added to deck

[chrome widget]

Too bulky IMO

[manic rune]

ack, i had that implemented for my world code since sometimes the Boss blind doesn't appear yet

[chrome widget]

This is a very specific use case, because this only applies to making them appear correctly in the collection when undiscovered

[zealous glen]

I mean you can add the sprite and if the collection exists remove it

[strong jacinth]

How would i create my own "discard" display

[spiral crown]

okay, I am attempting to make a joker that gives a random amount of money from -5 to 5 dollars (including everything between) at the end of round and am STRUGGLING on the calculate portion, anyone have any suggestions

[red flower]

isn't it calc_dollar_bonus = function(self, card) return pseudorandom("seed", -5, 5) end
maybe that can't do negatives

[spiral crown]

I sure hope so

[thin anchor]

cry some moor

[red flower]

what about pseudorandom("seed")*10-5

[signal oak]

what does this mean 💔

[red flower]

can i see the code
also do you have talisman installed

[spiral crown]

and no I don't have talisman

[red flower]

oh you don't return a table there

just return the pseudorandom part

without the {dollars = }

[spiral crown]

same error sadly

[red flower]

what error

[placid star]

is there something wrong with my code? do i need to declare the atlas as a soul or anything like that? I keep getting an error anytime I go into the page with my joker in the collection

[red flower]

pos should also have x and y and 1030 is probably incorrect

[red flower]

show code

[placid star]

x and y is what i needed tysm, but 1030 was correct (i have way too detailed sprites lmao)

[red flower]

you have 1030 sprites?

[placid star]

well no... thats how long each of them are on the x level

[red flower]

remove the brackets in the return

[red flower]

pos is the index in the atlas so if your joker is at pixel 1030x0 then the pos would be x = 1, y = 0
but if it's working then maybe I'm wrong

[placid star]

wait no you are super duper correct, i just added more sprites and you are right, my bad! but thanks to you my joker looks... decent(? ig) now! :)

[next timber]

is there a way to change the blind goal during the bind?

[hardy viper]

yes but im pretty sure it isn't standardized

i think that one blind utilities mod has it

[next timber]

i know you can change G.GAME.blind.chips but that doesnt update the text and neither does G.GAME.blind.chips_text

[red flower]

chips_text should update the text

[hardy viper]

i see

i guess im wrong i thought it was complicated

[red flower]

should be something like

G.GAME.blind.chips = number
G.GAME.blind.chip_text = number_format(G.GAME.blind.chips)

card:get_id()

[unkempt thicket]

How do you draw something from an atlas on a card without any object, so just a pos and atlas to an image on the card?

[spiral crown]

my smooth brain bows to your genius

[granite bane]

how do you make card:set_ability change the card sprite? Specifically for m_lucky

[spring lantern]

having a bit of trouble. i got a joker that has a chance to add polychrome to each scored playing card, and i would like for it to contribute to the calculation phase but also apply the visual elements when the card is scored rather than before - right now it seems like i can't have both, but maybe there's a method i haven't thought of? are quantum editions a thing maybe? :v

[spark pumice]

Working on a Cryptid Inspired set of Legendary Jokers based on various Robot Antagonists, how’s the pixel art?

Ignore the legendary background that was just a recolor of the Canino one

[rapid stag]

anyone?

[spring lantern]

that's cool - but do consider that you need the character portrait on a separate sprite so you can do the soul hovering effect

[stiff locust]

do cyborgs count

i'd like to put forward a suggestion

[spring lantern]

(like this)

[stiff locust]

also yeah this

[spark pumice]

Already did! The face sprite is in a separate folder!

[spark pumice]

I’d love to hear it!

[spring lantern]

ah sweet just making sure you know

[spark pumice]

👍

[stiff locust]

have you played ghostrunner

[spring lantern]

fellow looks quite dapper

[granite bane]

cause i have card:set_ability working to set the ability, but the sprite doesn't change

[spark pumice]

Ghostrunner… Don’t think I have, but I think I know a few people who have

[stiff locust]

the guy who gives you the tutorial in that game yeah he's evil

[spark pumice]

Oh I love that

[stiff locust]

it has a sequel so i am allowed to spoil it

he's with you for the entire game and then you kill him in your mind at the end

[spark pumice]

That’s sick tbh

[stiff locust]

it has been a while since i played ghostrunner and i'm so washed at it that I can't replay it lmao

so i'm very hazy on this stuff

[spark pumice]

Fair enough

I’ll definitely check it out!

[stiff locust]

oh yeah, and the antagonist of brothership technically counts

that game has not had a sequel, so i am not allowed to spoil it

[granite bane]

scratch that, it is updating the sprites, but only after the hand finishes playing

the joker I'm making functions similar to midas mask, but for some reason the sprites aren't changing to the lucky card sprite till after they're back in the deck

the text of the card changes immediately to have the lucky ability

Does card:set_ability just not work properly in mods?

I can't imagine how I'd possibly fix this issue

this is how it currently is card:set_ability(G.P_CENTERS.m_lucky, nil, true)

it does set the card to be lucky, but only after the cards go back in the deck, but i want it to work like midas mask

[red flower]

try changing the last argument to false

[granite bane]

ok

if that works that'd be strange cause midas mask has it as true lol

oh okay so that does work. huh.

thanks i guess, this games code makes no sense i swear

[shadow falcon]

hai guys, im looking to change text and sprites of the base game, how would i go about doing this

i dont want to add anything new

[red flower]

yeah no idea either lol but that argument delays the sprite changing

[placid star]

does anyone know the shop weights of all the current rarities of jokers? looking to make a new rarity above legendary and not sure what to make its weight

[shadow falcon]

i wanna say rare is like 4% uncommon 20%? i wanna say the soul is around .4% chance to replace a tarot or planet

i was close

[limber blaze]

rarities above legendary or above rare even should probably not be in the shop

its either too rare to be significant or too powerful compared to how rare it is

getting them via special means makes it a lot better though like soul

[placid star]

any suggestions in that case? i don't rly want to just make another soul that seems uninspired

and i dont want to make it a low drop chance in a soul considering the low drop rate of a soul

[spring lantern]

so how does the sound return in calc functions work again?...

[radiant plank]

how would one go about changing the game's background to a static image?

[spring lantern]

okay so i got it working but the sound is hella funky, how do i get it to play at a consistent pitch? (if that's even possible)

[limber blaze]

make a card that works with the rarities of existing jokers so you can get a higher than legendary rarity by already having a rare/legendary joker and then doing something special

[placid star]

ah thats a rly good idea, so like a joker/card that will evolve jokers?

[limber blaze]

spectral card was my main idea

[placid star]

hm thats a rly good idea tysm!!

[limber blaze]

you could make it a rare spectral but you could also make it show up with a regular weight if you meet the requirements to use it depends on how difficult you want it to be to get higher rarities

its a lot more impactful to get higher rarities by doing something special even if its just the soul because they almost always define the run entirely by themselves unless you have multiple higher rarities so just finding them is a little uneventful

[graceful magnet]

does Smeared really only do one side of the suit melding?

[glad crane]

Im trying to find a way to check if your current hand has at least one card of a rank, then do something to each card of that rank. Anyone have any ideas?

[graceful magnet]

wanting to make a similar Joker

[maiden phoenix]

SMODS adds a better smeared check with SMODS.smeared_check func

[rapid stag]

bump

[graceful magnet]

right, where can I find that

[maiden phoenix]

Inside Steamodded's code

[narrow maple]

Could someone figure out this mess?

(I've updated my usual mods)

[maiden phoenix]

Whichever mod have a joker called "quarter dumb" is the cause

[rapid stag]

try asking over in https://discord.com/channels/1116389027176787968/1229697382065639426
seems like your culprit

[graceful magnet]

welp stupid solutions cuz I can't find the elusive smeared_check

expectedly, stupid solution does not work

it does now

sweet

[signal oak]

as a checkered deck glazer i fucking love mismatch what that is AWESOME

[graceful magnet]

funniest bit of code from all of this

[lament sparrow]

Thinking of joker concepts is hard lol

I got to 8 and ran out of gas

[graceful magnet]

manually making sure that if Smeared and Mismatch are together, the two suit pairings that aren't counted are still handled as you would think the combo would handle them

cursed ass hand

[gilded goblet]

brainstorm (bALATRO REFERENCE??!?!) next time u go outside or whenever you take a shower

usually helps

[lament sparrow]

ah shower thoughts, classic

but sitting on the toilet is where all the big brain ideas come from

[graceful magnet]

I too am a Checkered fan and yeah this is gonna go nutty style with Checkered

[graceful magnet]

as somebody would made a 60 Joker mod, and is currently working on another 60, yeah it can be but it can be easier to think of an idea, like an object, creature, concept, and then think about what would be a thematic effect for that idea

[lament sparrow]

I already have a theme for this joker mod

The question is thinking of what kind of effects to object will work

[quartz ravine]

Ok, it looks like Cryptid does a ton of work to force apply editions or enhancements in a given custom Back / Deck

[old bane]

“Flush” House

[granite bane]

how do you check for consumable slots?

so like have a create consumable only trigger if there's open slots

[old bane]

#G.consumables is the amount of consumables i think, and then theres like a card_limit for the total slots

i think

(you can prolly also look at cards like Tarotmancer for an example)

[granite bane]

those just use a different kind of function i think

ok i think its
#G.consumeables.cards + G.GAME.consumeable_buffer < G.consumeables.config.card_limit

[iron haven]

How do I add custom cards in Balatro?

[quartz ravine]

Hi folks, what does this position refer to, for decks? It doesn't look like it uses a normal Atlas like other SMODS items

[quartz ravine]

Like a stone card or the equiv?

[iron haven]

I mean like change the standard cards

[finite zephyr]

is there a way to specify a certain probability within the game? there's obv G.GAME.probabilities but is there for example a suffix you could add to specify glass card probs/lucky card probs/etc?

[chrome widget]

Is there a way to determine if something is the current title screen card?

[iron haven]

I have a file for them so where do I put it?

[quartz ravine]

That would be an enhancement I think. The way to do it is make a mod, add a config and lua file and put your code to do whatever you'd like with your enhancement in the lua file. Then start the game and use CONTROL+W to cycle through enhancements

I would not try editing in the source for the game, way too fragile. Just use SMODS.

[quartz ravine]

Read this https://github.com/Steamodded/smods/wiki/Your-First-Mod

[sturdy compass]

I am actually so good at coding wtf

[quartz ravine]

That is cool!

good cohesive vision too

[long sun]

woah very cool!!!

[sturdy compass]

ty both

[quartz ravine]

Hi GhostSalt, I've seen you around a lot. Do you have a mod you made?

I answered my question, decks / backs also support an atlas

[iron haven]

Mine is just a retexture of the playing cards.

[quartz ravine]

I wonder...what is the thing that made most folks here start modding? For me, it was wanting there to be an opposite card to 'Strength'

[long sun]

i've got BFDI, mainly? it's the only one i've got in Alpha so far

[long sun]

well, it was trying out pixel art of one of my OCs, Ghost, and then thinking "ya i really wanna make her a Joker :D"

[quartz ravine]

What's BFDI?

[long sun]

Battle For Dream Island, it's the most popular and most influential object show

lemme link you to the mod :D

https://discord.com/channels/1116389027176787968/1337836888181968927

[quartz ravine]

Ohhh I have seen this before! Very nice and unified design. I don't know the source material but it looks really lovingly done

[iron haven]

so. what do I do?

[sturdy compass]

You're gonna want to make a DeckSkin https://github.com/Steamodded/smods/wiki/SMODS.DeckSkin

Or you could just use Malverk

[placid star]

hey urm guys... how do you feel about a jjk mod ☝️💡

[sturdy compass]

I'm indifferent but you do what you wanna do!

[quartz ravine]

Sweet, my whole deck, and all of the jokers are spawning now with this new custom edition I made 🙂

My dream of having every card have a built-in hiker is complete

[long sun]

oughhhh i love the Joker on the right!!

[placid star]

INDIFFERENT??? the correct answer was OMG YES THAT WOULD BE SO COOL AND PEAK ANS UR SO COOL

[iron haven]

Malverk?

[sturdy compass]

[iron haven]

oh

[sturdy compass]

It's a mod layer that makes making texture packs easier (or so I've heard)

[iron haven]

where do I put the file?

[quartz ravine]

Read the mod guide I linked to you, I think it will help you a lot. You are trying to make your own mod, get it to load, then add a DeckSkin as the other person suggested. Those are the steps, and once you've done them, it should work 🙂

This is weird, I made a custom shader for an edition, and it looks different on my own custom jokers v ones from the base game

[sturdy compass]

huh

[iron haven]

damn it. I lost my Balatro files.

[quartz ravine]

Yeah I do not know why the shader would look different between mine and base game jokers. It's supposed to be a shiney glittery effect like from special yugioh trading cards

[reef belfry]

Does this seem fair

[iron haven]

And my cloud now can't sync up... WAH.

[thin anchor]

heavy jokers guy

[crisp elbow]

Are yours a different resolution?

Or it could be the way it’s rendered onto cards with darker colors

[iron haven]

I lost all my runs and vouchers and stuff...........

WAAAAAAAAAH

[granite bane]

how do I check what a played card's current enhancement is

i know it'd be card.ability something

[long sun]

context.other_card.ability.name == 'Lucky Card', for example

so in general, it's .ability.name

[iron haven]

nvm

[narrow iron]

why is the if statement on line 30 never running?

[iron haven]

where's the file I place AltTextures into?

[graceful magnet]

because of the return in the first if, what you want to do is remove that end above the second context and change the second if to an elseif

[narrow iron]

tried that out first

it didnt work either

i only need line 30-on to run when valid_hand is false

and the return statement doesnt run in that case anyways

[graceful magnet]

then the true answer is, from experience:

Working with context.after fucking sucks

[narrow iron]

yea im also noticing that

like, i tried removing and context.cardare == G.play and it ran before the cards began scoring

[graceful magnet]

there's like very specific instances where it activates, but I believe after and G.play will never coincide

[narrow iron]

bruh 😭

[graceful magnet]

nvm!

I ain't got a clue

[narrow iron]

these docs are so weird

[glad crane]

So I have made a tarot card as a test and when the game goes to the shop it crashes with
attempt to perform arithmetic on a nil value
I have set everything I need to, the card works and I do have a rarity and a shop rate for the object type, so I am not sure what it is actually trying to math here. The crash log is not at all helpful.

[narrow iron]

wait a minute, i did this exact implementation for another joker and it works fine!!

what?!

[iron haven]

um

[graceful magnet]

beh??

oh

[narrow iron]

yea that may be a slight issue

[lament sparrow]

Thoughts?
"Long Black Coffee: Every played card gets double the chip value when scored for the next 4 (or 6?) hands."

[iron haven]

I don't see the setting thing.

in Malverk

[sturdy monolith]

how can i replicate DNA without this happening

I'm trying to make an edition that functions as dna without the joker

[narrow iron]

your probably not returning in the editions calculate function

[iron haven]

guys?

[graceful magnet]

I have to ask if I'm even hooking into the get_straight function correctly or not, I'm trying to make a Joker that lets you make Straights with only 3 cards but well it's not doing that

[sturdy monolith]

sorry that was so delayed my Internet is shit rn

[iron haven]

I don't see this

in the game

[narrow iron]

yea, you need to add a return after the function runs

right after this end

just put return true

should work then

well, actually im not sure that will fix your current issue

[sturdy monolith]

it says it needs to return a table

will return {}

Oki now it works

thanks

[narrow iron]

does it run correctly when you play the card?

[graceful magnet]

wait a second

is it, only registering Straights when...

k... this is something

[sturdy monolith]

now when i press on the card the game crashes

it doesn't even let me play it

wait wrong end

[narrow iron]

wait i got it

change full_hand to scoring_hand

[iron haven]

Is something wrong?

[sturdy monolith]

still dupes it infinitely
i want mitosis, not a full civilization of single cell organisms

[red flower]

i don't know much about editions but you are calling this in every context that has full_hand

you need to narrow it down to a specific one

[sturdy monolith]

i did change it to scoring hand

[red flower]

same thing, a lot of contexts have scoring_hand

[sturdy monolith]

huh
fair enough
not really used to having to deal with context in modding lol

[red flower]

I'll recommend picking one of these https://github.com/Steamodded/smods/wiki/calculate_functions

[iron haven]

guys?

[sturdy monolith]

pretty much all of those are for jokers though, almost none apply to editions

[red flower]

they should be the same or similar

[iron haven]

Can someone help?

[sturdy monolith]

are you adding your mod prefix before the key name when you're specifying a game objects localization key?

[iron haven]

mod prefix?

[sturdy monolith]

the prefix you set in your metadata file

[iron haven]

What also do I have to add?

[sterile crater]

How would i make a mod to retexture a joker with a higher resolution picture than normal?

[narrow iron]

change the size defined on the atlas

[sturdy monolith]

no no, put it before the key thingy
like
key = "myprefix_F deck"

[narrow iron]

well, making the mod is a bit more than that but thats the specific part you'd need to do for a larger texture

[graceful magnet]

oops

[sterile crater]

Where do i find the atlas

[iron haven]

ok now?

[sturdy monolith]

you should be done?

[sturdy monolith]

i cannot for the life of me to get this edition to not form a full civilization instead of just performing mitosis a single time

[iron haven]

also you need to install some mods before your cards will change

steamodded?

[sturdy monolith]

the main modding platform for balatro...?

[manic rune]

you know what

[iron haven]

where's the download for steamodded?

[glad osprey]

how would i make the Xmult message come out of the jokers

[reef belfry]

Sir! Sir! How do i make x do y?!

[sturdy monolith]

return {
    message = "X" .. x_mult_var_ig
}

[manic rune]

the fact thats its everywhere 😭

[glad osprey]

thats what i have

i need it to come out of the jokers rather than the deck

[manic rune]

add card = the joker you want to have the message

[iron haven]

Can I have the download?

[sturdy monolith]

card = card

[glad crane]

So I have narrowed down the error to this code block, but I fail to see anything wrong and after checking the documentation I have not left anything out:

    key = 'Test',
    collection_rows = {3, 3},
    primary_colour = HEX("337e83"),
    secondary_colour = HEX("a56047"),
    loc_txt = {
        name = 'Test Tarot',
        collection = 'Test Tarot'
    },
    shop_rate = 0.0,
    default = "Hiker"
}```

For context - I am getting a nil arithmetic error when entering the shop. Commenting out this code block fixes the error. Anyone have any insight?

[zealous glen]

I don't think that's correct

[sturdy monolith]

https://github.com/Steamodded/smods

[sturdy monolith]

it is

[zealous glen]

IIRC card = … doesn't do anything

[red flower]

it's message_card

[zealous glen]

I think the correct key is message_card = …

[glad osprey]

lets see first

ah

[zealous glen]

It shouldn't break, it should just be ignored

[manic rune]

wha

[iron haven]

Is smods is steamodded?

[manic rune]

was i lied to 😭

[sturdy monolith]

yes...?

[glad osprey]

im blind

[manic rune]

I SWEAR SOMEONE TOLD ME CARD = ... IS FOR THE MESSAGE STUFF

wtf...

[sturdy monolith]

it is

[red flower]

this doesn't actually give xmult though, is that intended?

[glad osprey]

yes

[zealous glen]

it was a generalized misconception aka misinformation aka fake news aka psyops aka gaslighting

[iron haven]

oh I downloaded it.

[sturdy monolith]

sending an image but it's probably gonna be delayed

my code is anything but organized lmfao

hey y'all. I'm trying to make a joker that specifically retriggers jacks 5 times but when i test the joker the game crashes

it's similar to context.individual but you return { remove = true } to destroy the card

[zealous glen]

win a world cup?

[red flower]

i am lionel messi

[granite bane]

I'm making a joker where wild cards can do anything when scored, and I was gonna have one of the things it could do be destroy itself. But it wouldn't really fit the vibe if it didn't destroy till after everything was scored.

[sturdy monolith]

oh lmao

[storm wharf]

oh. what exactly does context.other_card do? I just copied what was written in an example i found. also is there a place where i can see all the functions and what they do?

[granite bane]

So I just won't have that be one of the things

[zealous glen]

"can do anything" is wild

[manic rune]

https://github.com/Steamodded/smods/wiki/calculate_functions

i can do anything

[zealous glen]

balatro meets calvinball

[granite bane]

it's jevil themed

[storm wharf]

TYSM

[zealous glen]

can wild cards pay my taxes

[zealous glen]

I can't say much because AFAIK the Brazilian team has been ahh

[iron haven]

hmm

[red flower]

i cant say much because idk anything about sports

[sturdy monolith]

show hidden

[glad osprey]

windows + r , "%appdata%"

[zealous glen]

me too that's why I said AFAIK

[granite bane]

right now it can either

• give between +5 and +50 chips
• give between +1 and +10 mult
• give between x1.1 and x2.0 mult
• give between 1 and 10 dollars
• create a random planet
• create a random tarot
• create a random new card
• create a random joker
• retrigger itself

[zealous glen]

did Argentina win the last World Cup

[sturdy monolith]

super delayed image coming

[iron haven]

oh

[keen tiger]

how are button onclick handlers done in balatros codebase

[red flower]

yes

[zealous glen]

congrats

[iron haven]

It is in Mods

[glad osprey]

shift windows s

[sturdy monolith]

now restart balatro

[red flower]

each button has a "button" field with the name of the function and that function is stored in G.FUNCS (in misc_functions.lua i think)

[keen tiger]

epic thx

[iron haven]

restart like uninstall and reinstall?

[zealous glen]

no

[sturdy monolith]

no???
close and reopen it

[iron haven]

nothing...

[sturdy monolith]

you don't have a mods button.

how

[iron haven]

Yay, I don't

[red flower]

maybe the version.dll got eaten by the antivirus

[sleek siren]

I attempted to do a similar thing for adding jokers as well, but it crashes on run, is there another way to write jokers as well?

[red flower]

does a console open with the game?

[iron haven]

hmmm

[red flower]

that looks correct, you don't even need the set. never made a deck tho
what's the crash?

[iron haven]

I just dragged version.dll into the folder and still nothing

[glad osprey]

wrong folder

version.dll goes into the balatro folder that you had mods in originally

[red flower]

check if it's still in the other folder

[red flower]

gateway is not a joker i think?

[iron haven]

still no.

[glad osprey]

wrong folder again

[iron haven]

???

[sturdy monolith]

put version.dll in the folder with balatro.exe

[glad osprey]

the one you originally had the mods folder in

yea that

[sleek siren]

ahhhhhh, that would make sense, I just kinda copied a list of names from the exotic.lua

Thank you! ^^

[iron haven]

here?

[sturdy monolith]

yes

[glad osprey]

yes

[sturdy monolith]

rate this joker
it's only able to appear after ante 39 and doubles its x mult at the end of ante 39 :D

[iron haven]

ok so now?

[glad osprey]

yes

[sturdy monolith]

holy lag

[iron haven]

What do I do?

[glad osprey]

open the game

[iron haven]

hmmmm

[red flower]

does a console open alongside the game?

[iron haven]

yes.

[red flower]

then lovely is installed correctly

[long sun]

Ya it's an issue with your SMODS

[glad osprey]

whats the inside of this smods folder like

[glad osprey]

directly?

[long sun]

Did you not try following the instructions on the SMODS wiki?

[glad osprey]

not like a folder in a folder?

[long sun]

Iirc it also has to be called Steamodded

[glad osprey]

no

name does not matter

[keen tiger]

ok i see a func field but no button?

[sturdy monolith]

nah

[long sun]

Iri (I recall incorrectly) :>

[red flower]

func is to modify the UI (like making it light up when it's active)

[iron haven]

pffff

[stark geode]

hey anyone got a pixel art program with better image scaling

[glad osprey]

aseprite

[stark geode]

im dying here

[red flower]

here's an example

[sturdy monolith]

krita has good stuff for pixel art

not exactly dedicated to it tho

[stark geode]

well im using paint rn

[glad osprey]

aseprite

[stark geode]

so anything is better

[stark geode]

i dont wanna pay tho

[red flower]

notepad

[stark geode]

and we dont to piracy here

[glad osprey]

its open source

[sturdy monolith]

krita

[glad osprey]

or source available

[keen tiger]

thank you

[iron haven]

what is causing it to crash?

[keen tiger]

finally found what i need to trigger

[stark geode]

👁️ 👄 👁️

[glad osprey]

you can compile it yourself

[sturdy monolith]

you have a bug in your code

[keen tiger]

is there a lua equivalent to setTimeout or something like that

like, if the game starts, wait a few secs then run a thing

[sturdy monolith]

make an event with a delay

[keen tiger]

ight

im trying to test if this is the right function

to trigger a new run

will prolly explode

[stark geode]

i see

[iron haven]

AltTexture({ key = 'myprefix_F deck', -- the key of the texture set = 'Cards', -- define the object type that you are retexturing, see wiki for full list of types id = "foxtrotdeck" name = "F deck" path = '8BitDeck.xcf', -- the filename of your spritesheet, saved in assets/1x AND assets/2x loc_txt = { -- [NYI] Localization text for tooltips displayed in the texture selection screen - can be added to a localization file under [descriptions][alt_texture] name = 'F Texture', text = 'Cards are different' } }) This?

[stark geode]

dawg what is that key

[sturdy monolith]

is that all the code you have

[iron haven]

no

that's the part I added

[sturdy monolith]

is that in the alttexture.lua file?

[iron haven]

yes.

[sturdy monolith]

then that's your problem

[iron haven]

where do I put it?

the code

[sturdy monolith]

nowhere, you need to fix the code

it's not a matter of where the code is but what it is

[iron haven]

how do I fix it?

[red flower]

i recommend getting an actual code editor to highlight syntax errors

[sturdy monolith]

^

i would recommend neovim but you should not use neovim
get something like vscode

while neovim is best for lua dev, it's not nearly as easy to use

[iron haven]

hmmm

why is it preview?

[sturdy monolith]

do you have tab completions in this?

or a debugger

or lsp hints

or error highlighting

[red flower]

i would never willingly choose to use regular visual studio

[iron haven]

so.

[sturdy monolith]

oh wait it's vs not notepad++

yeah don't use that unless you're writing C# which you are not

[iron haven]

notepad++?

[sturdy monolith]

better notepad

[iron haven]

I'm in notepad++

[keen tiger]

balatros codebase makes me cry

so much global state

[sturdy monolith]

no, you are not

[sturdy monolith]

why'd you go from VS to notepad++ for coding 😭😭😭😭

[rapid stag]

another bump

[red flower]

try this https://vscodium.com/

[sturdy monolith]

^

[red flower]

I use that in some places, what exactly do you need?

[rapid stag]

i just need to know the basics on how to add a sprite object to a UI node table and what properties it expects. the smods wiki only describes that it exists, but never anything specific about how to properly define them

it's one of the few things it doesn't talk about

[old bane]

is there a way to disable the boss blind for like one hand and then undisable it next turn?

[red flower]

i have an example but its a lovely patch, should be the same
https://github.com/nh6574/JoyousSpring/blob/afd2ccbcfc78f34f7d15a559bbf60f94de97afb9/lovely/effects.toml#L81

[iron haven]

so.

[stark geode]

bettre

[red flower]

not an easy one afaik

[red flower]

now install this https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=sumneko.lua

[keen tiger]

okay, so i got a new run triggering, but it basically blocks the rest of the game startup

how can i make it so that it doesnt block up the pipeline and starts like 5 seconds after getting to the welcome screen

[red flower]

delay the event more and make it so it doesn't block by setting blocking = false?

maybe

[iron haven]

ok so...

what now?

[red flower]

it should underline your syntax errors in red

[keen tiger]

hmmm i can make it a conditional?

what kind of boolean values could i check that would allow me to see if its on the start screen?

G.SCREEN or smth???

[iron haven]

I don't see red.

[red flower]

hmm weird

[red flower]

G.STATE == G.STATES.MENU i think

[iron haven]

AltTexture({ key = 'myprefix_F deck', -- the key of the texture set = 'Cards', -- define the object type that you are retexturing, see wiki for full list of types id = "foxtrotdeck", name = "F deck", path = '8BitDeck.xcf', -- the filename of your spritesheet, saved in assets/1x AND assets/2x loc_txt = { -- [NYI] Localization text for tooltips displayed in the texture selection screen - can be added to a localization file under [descriptions][alt_texture] name = 'F Texture', text = 'Cards are different' } }) is my code

[keen tiger]

ebin thx

[red flower]

fixed it

[red flower]

send the whole file pls

[tawny narwhal]

Yo I was playtesting some jokers last night, and apparently the 'extra' in this line of code causes a crash randomly. I'll try and recreate the error to show it.
if context.retrigger_joker_check and context.other_card ~= card and [--->]context.other_card.ability.extra[<---] and context.other_card.ability.extra.is_jet_joker and not (context.other_card.ability.name == 'SUPCruise' and context.other_context.end_of_round) then

[red flower]

it seems to be OK but I'm not sure if that's how you do malverk textures
