in the textures field of TexturePack, it needs to be a list of keys of your AltTexture objects, plus your mod prefix
in this case, change

TexturePack{
    textures = {'boykisser_Tarot'},
}```
to
```lua
TexturePack{
    textures = {'Boykisser_boykissertarot'}, -- Boykisser is from PREFIX; boykissertarot is the key from the AltTexture
}

I can't believe the old steamodded header is still in use and recommended

high drift Dec 16, 2025, 6:38 PM

#

It’s not?

tulip flax Dec 16, 2025, 6:39 PM

#

where even is it recommended

#

it definitely isnt by smods

sand burrow Dec 18, 2025, 5:57 PM

#

why tf is using the textures button not working

#

I didn't do anything and it now works

#

huh

#

for some bizzare reason having a only my texture pack kyu-latro crashes the game

#

but having my other pack pokelatro fixes it

#

???????

#

I love malverk ❤️

#

maybe something to do with the soul_key stuff? (or something like that)

sand burrow Dec 18, 2025, 6:54 PM

#

it was something to do with the stickers

#

had to remove becouse no clue how to fix

foggy garnet Jan 20, 2026, 12:59 AM

I'm back from the depths and wanting to figure out if the documentation was available yet for making a sleeve mod compatible with malverk~?

I tried adding the Celestial Funk skins, but it crashes when starting

#

Is it because of the other mods?

#

So it crashes if I put the folder into the mod folder

narrow fjord Feb 20, 2026, 10:21 PM

#

ah.

#

where do I put this?

lucid jacinth Feb 20, 2026, 10:25 PM

#

you don't

#

that's the source code; for lovely you need the compiled dll

tulip flax Feb 20, 2026, 10:27 PM

#

That

#

That isnt the source code

#

this is correct afaik

#

There should be a single version.dll file in there

narrow fjord Feb 20, 2026, 10:28 PM

#

yep, there is

tulip flax Feb 20, 2026, 10:28 PM

#

Okay

#

Then you want to put that into the same folder as the balatro executable

narrow fjord Feb 20, 2026, 10:28 PM

#

oh yeah, I have to put it in the directory!

#

i put it in and it stll crashes

#

Well, Celestial Funk still makes it crash

wraith lichen Feb 24, 2026, 2:14 AM

#

is there a way to change a texture from another mod without listing all the Jokers that use said texture?

#

i've replaced all the Jokers in Cryptid, and would like an easy way of changing its textures

nova niche Feb 24, 2026, 2:45 PM

#

still haven't found a solution to this,
right now all im doing is taking the code for some other mod and just replacing the sprites from it but i'd rather have it be my own one incase i wanted to like upload it or something

#

im not very smart unfortunately

wraith lichen Feb 24, 2026, 3:03 PM

#

wraith lichen is there a way to change a texture from another mod without listing all the Joke...

hang on i might be a little dense

wraith lichen Feb 24, 2026, 3:27 PM

#

okay nevermind, i'm very smart actually

#

i tried using the keys of the atlases that Cryptid uses, but it's replacing the vanilla jokers 😭

wraith lichen Feb 24, 2026, 4:26 PM

#

problem: Cryptid has soul_poss like { x = , y = , extra = { ... } }

#

Malverk doesn't look like it handles those

wraith lichen Feb 24, 2026, 5:17 PM

#

okay found the issue

#

default_soul is only set for vanilla Jokers

high drift Feb 24, 2026, 5:49 PM

#

I will likely need to make some changes for modded objects like this to work fully, but you should be able to generate a list of keys by looping over either the jokers table or the cryptid mod table somewhere

wraith lichen Feb 24, 2026, 5:52 PM

#

aye it's alright ^^ i've got it working

high drift Feb 24, 2026, 6:00 PM

#

Sweet!

#

What was the solution?

wraith lichen Feb 24, 2026, 6:02 PM

#

for _, v in pairs(SMODS.Centers) do
        if v.soul_pos and not v.default_soul then
            v.default_soul = v.soul_pos
        end
    end```

#

and also

#

function ghostcards_find_all_on_sheet(mod, sheet)
    local atlas = {}
    for _, v in pairs(SMODS.Centers) do
        if v.original_mod and v.original_mod.id == mod and v.atlas == sheet then
            atlas[#atlas + 1] = v.key
        end
    end
    return atlas
end```

#

eg. keys = ghostcards_find_all_on_sheet("Cryptid", "cry_atlasone"),

high drift Feb 24, 2026, 6:24 PM

#

Yeah I was thinking a function like that

wraith lichen Mar 2, 2026, 8:46 PM

#

how's this for a mod icon?

#

alt version

prime ridge Mar 3, 2026, 2:15 PM

#

The alt version looks very cool

wraith lichen Mar 3, 2026, 5:37 PM

#

oh ya here's the alt version 1x

high drift Mar 3, 2026, 5:48 PM

#

That’s pretty cool

#

I’m not a massive fan of tag style mod icons tbh

wraith lichen Mar 3, 2026, 6:04 PM

#

fair ^u^

high drift Mar 3, 2026, 6:25 PM

oh right, that's what i meant to mention, about this steamodded issue

i get not exactly this, but something similar with malverk and using copy_card effects to copy a modded joker:

#

and a quick simple fix that i find seems to be opening and closing the malverk textures menu, and i think this loop is what does it?

#

i've tested putting that that in a function and calling that function from an event set near the end of my copy_card hook and that appears to fix that specifically, i'm wondering if this fix is applicable elsewhere
