Art of the Deal - The People's card collection (30 Jokers) (Submissions CLOSED)

[thick geyser]

as said, it's nuts

[viscid rose]

might have to raise that blind size multiplier lol

[mental tundra]

can’t wait to discover nan2

[thick geyser]

Thinking of adding more downsides after this showing
Like raising shop prices or giving jokers a chance to have stickers

how should I balance this beast

[untold tinsel]

can we make a joker based off this image

i want YOU to tell jokes

[odd frost]

yeah feel free to make one, just like send it to https://discord.com/channels/1116389027176787968/1335318659169517659 cus submissions are closed here and open there

[bronze elbow]

yooooooo that should be rare 100%

[odd frost]

i mean thats with like 50ish dark matter jokers

and its still only on boss blind

[bronze elbow]

50ish is ALOT also it was supposed to be +1$ per joker

[odd frost]

(the DM amount was for testing)

as for the $1 per joker thats pretty fair

[bronze elbow]

ok

[odd frost]

should probably change that back

i thought itd fit more with 1 per but yeah

[quartz ibex]

heey, I kinda wanna work as a translator in spanish for a balatro mod, is anyone looking for it (I dont know anything about coding, I just wanna translate some jokers or consumables)

[odd frost]

i could look into it, but its actually reuqire a bit of refactoring of my code before i was able to get you to translate

ill look into it

[lethal acorn]

oh yeah i forgot spanish exists

[odd frost]

yknow i was actually thinking of attempting a german translation at some point or another

bc im learning it

[lethal acorn]

spanish is my first language but idk how a translation would be formated

[odd frost]

i mean

some stuff would be easy

like +1 discard

what

should i @ mods?

[odd frost]

anywho i feel itd help by referencing the vanilla spanish localization

unless you mean on the code side?

[lethal acorn]

yeah like

if id have to modify code or be given a list of all the terms to translate

because the actual translating should be dumb easy

[odd frost]

yeah

[viscid rose]

wtf is this LMAO

[odd frost]

im pretty sure its just chocked up to making a specific folder with each localization file

then calling a specific entry for each bit of text

[lethal acorn]

i mean i could see if i do it like tmr

not a lot of content compared to base game

[odd frost]

yeah

ill look into it myself

[lethal acorn]

genuienlythe hardest part would be figuring out how to do it and not the actual translating

[viscid rose]

yeah, instead of having joker descriptions/names/upgrade text in the joker/main file itself, they're relegated to files for different languages in the /localization mod folder

then it comes down to assigning different translated descriptions/names for each key, for each bit of displayed text

[lethal acorn]

ah

is there a way i could possibly force rad to do that and i instead do the easy part like everything ive ever contributed to this mod

[odd frost]

yeah ill do the hard part

then i could also take a stab at translating in german to help me learn german

[odd frost]

i should do it before i add anything else thats for sure

[odd frost]

lol

[odd frost]

but not tonight

[lethal acorn]

yeah no i am

[viscid rose]

the localization files are basically just tables with trees, and the general format is just
key_for_exact_value = "description here, sometimes multiple tabled descriptions for more in depth stuff"

[lethal acorn]

SPENT

[odd frost]

i have some stuff i need to do then im straight to bed

im tired

[odd frost]

i like how they left after i mentioned mods

[lethal acorn]

joykill

[viscid rose]

i assume that person got hacked, that's an obviously ai message and they haven't talked in a month lol

[odd frost]

mhm

[viscid rose]

very strange to join a random thread with an entirely unrelated message reply if you aren't a very unusual ai bot

[odd frost]

yeah i was assuming bot

is why i mentioned mods

[mental tundra]

I’m willing to bet the + at the start of the message was a signal for the bot to pick up on

[odd frost]

yknow thinking about it i have yet to see a single pron bot in the server

[mental tundra]

Probably because it’s hard for them to survive very long if they’re designed to be rampant

[odd frost]

thing is ive seen plenty in the risk of rain server

when i was frequenting it

[viscid rose]

possibly, but also it's weird they just responded as a normal user especially considering the account hasn't been like that before lol

[mental tundra]

Weird…

[quartz ibex]

In case its hard to do, what if you check cryptid source code? It has localization for different languages too

[odd frost]

a. theres smods documentation for it, i can and should just use that
b. while no fault of your own can people please stop telling me to refer to cryptid?

the other two times it happened no answers were actually gleaned

also it wont be hard per say, just tedious

[quartz ibex]

mb, sad to know that happened

[odd frost]

theres a good few pieces of text ive written for this so far, and all would have to be reformatted

[quartz ibex]

I see

[odd frost]

its all good, as i said its not your fault

[quartz ibex]

anyways if you ever would like to do that, give me a call for the spanish localization, love the mod so far! Cheers

[odd frost]

two at least for all the jokers, one for each voucher, and one for each deck

[odd frost]

yeah ill hit ya up

[viscid rose]

cryptid is in such a strange spot lol cause it's by far the most well known mod, but also the most tedious mod and one that's programmed obtusely around transferring to new-calc

[odd frost]

yes

[viscid rose]

so that's the (understandable) go-to recommendation of how to do stuff, but it's always outdated by multiple months

[odd frost]

shit looks like hieroglyphics when i look through it

[viscid rose]

i genuinely think trying to use cryptid as a reference made my code worse for a good while

[odd frost]

lol
shoulda just incessantly asked modding dev for help for the first several jokers like i did

[clear dust]

first time making something proper (for balatro) so i definitely missed/broke some rules. just lmk and ill fix em

[clear dust]

realized it probably shouldn't say joker because that's confusing

[bronze elbow]

it HAS to say joker

try j. joker

[cinder fiber]

It does say Joker, but it’s all lines

[odd frost]

this is a deck

[odd frost]

but yeah this looks great

[clear dust]

Cool

I think the edge might be the wrong color actually

[odd frost]

one note, and ill just do this manually-

yeah its supposed to be white

but thats all

if you could do that, and export the image with no upscaling, thatd be great

[clear dust]

Sure

But uh

I did draw this over a joker that was already upscaled....

[odd frost]

is all good

worst case i can do it myself

[clear dust]

Ok

[odd frost]

(i do not mind if i have to)

[clear dust]

Is the border too thin also? It looks off

[odd frost]

the border is supposed to be 3px thick

[serene pelican]

Guess who's peeking into the chat

[odd frost]

ello

[serene pelican]

hi
and now bye (im swamped with undertale game dev)

[clear dust]

sorry the program wouldnt let me halve the scale

but the border is white

[odd frost]

is all good

would there be a way to export it with transparent borders though?

nvm

it is transparent

[south sparrow]

I have finally figured out why I didn't have the new decks and can play with them

the issue: I am dumb

[odd frost]

not using the branch?

[south sparrow]

yeah

[odd frost]

sall good realistically i could have just commited to main

i mainly did it this way to know it wouldn't immediately break if i did so

[south sparrow]

This is a better way to do it imo, I just didn't read

pushing to prod is a bad idea

[odd frost]

imma work on setting up proper localization today
if anyone would like to provide translations in languages you speak and the game supports hit me up

[odd frost]

im going to lay it on real with yall, my motivation for making this is dropping rapidly and i want to move onto other projects

so what im going to do, is two things

finish localization setup, and add the easy to add decks

(note, realistically i will return to this, because i do absolutely want to add more jokers someday, but its gonna be a while)

[odd frost]

(specifcally, i dont think i can get overcrowded deck in, coupon/carnival might get in, and document deck for sure will)

[thin spire]

Dont try overwork yourself, its always healthy to take a step back from a project for a little while, especially a passion project mod. Cant wait to see what other projects ur going onto

[quartz ibex]

Yeah, agree
Working too much on something might cause a burnout
Just work on it whenever you feel like it, I mean, you are doing it because of fun after all

[jaunty lark]

does mimic break the game for anyone else?

causes stack overflow error

[odd frost]

(gdi)

[odd frost]

sorry to hear that, but until i find motivation to continue this mod (unlikely) its not being fixed

(also mimic joker has been a pain since day one and im sorry that its still around kicking ppl's asses)

[jaunty lark]

no thats completely fine, dont overwork yourself. I just wanted to make sure im not the only one who ran onto that as i tried to implement a similar joker myself

[jaunty lark]

yup that sounds about right

[subtle crown]

Does anyone know how I could create a Joker that draws certain types of cards first at the beginning of the round? Trying to implement this concept. I don't think there are any Jokers in the base game that modify draw order.

[odd frost]

if there's an avaliable list of the deck, it should be pretty easy

but this is a question better suited for #💻・modding-dev

[subtle crown]

Dang it, I swear I clicked on that channel 😄 Sorry about that

[odd frost]

'sall good!
