Releases: SpectralPack/Ankh
v.2.0.0-beta6
Hey everyone, it's been a while!
I've been slowly posting small Ankh updates on the Speedrun discord, and now there's enough changes that I feel obligated to just post them here.
I have some feature requests on the to-do, so more updates are definitely coming, but no ETA yet.
- stupid
Features
- Added "Stake Climb" category
- Added "5 Decks" category
- Added "Deck Extinction" category (Remove all cards from the deck)
- Added mods info overlay whenever the game is paused
- Seed is no longer hidden on win screen
- "Reset timer" is now alongside "Set seed" checkbox when starting new run, to avoid unnecessary clicks going into settings
- Slightly updated replays UI
- "None" category now works with "Keep timer between runs" option
- Added an option to auto split every 8 antes (useful for ante 12 and naneinf%)
- Clicking show seed in Esc menu will open confirm menu
- Folder no longer needs to be named MathIsFun0-Ankh exactly
- Config file is no longer stored in the mod folder (it's in
AppData/Balatro/config, just like (most) other mods)
Fixes
- Fixed Campfire scaling for replays
- Fixed Steamodded compatibility
- Fixed an issue causing "Replay" state not resetting properly (which caused Ankh card show up when holding R, and games not save)
- Fixed vanilla memory leak which caused some UI elements stay in memory
- Fixed an issue that unlocks & discoveries didn't work in endless when using
All DiscoveriesandAll Unlockscategories - Fixed bug with Ankh connecting to LiveSplit on game startup
- Fixed disabled mods still showing up in security checks sometimes
v.2.0.0-beta4
Note: This is a beta version of Ankh, so expect bugs! Additionally, it is also not recommended in Speedrun.com submissions.
What's new
- Added Ante 12 category.
- Added Jimbo's Buffet category.
- Added naneinf category.
- Added quality of life patches for high score runs: capped flames volume and capped Chips X Mult text juice during scoring.
- Added a button to reset current progress (e.g. when doing a 3 deck run and already won 1 deck).
- Auto save is now toggleable.
- Replays now also show year of the recording in file name.
- You can now have unlimited amount of replays per seed instead of just one.
- Replays are now toggleable and disabled by default to avoid performance issues when saving large runs.
- Improved visual clarity for replays menu.
Fixed some known issues:
- Rerolling bosses via Director's Cut/Retcon is now tracked in replays.
- Replays are now sorted by date in the replay selection menu (for better performance the date is taken from replay name).
- Brainstorm reroll detection now works with latest Brainstorm version.
- The seed now appears on the win screen for seeded runs.
- Replays will now properly track actions before the cashout (e.g. selling a Joker or using a consumable), so cards of the same type can appear in next shop.
- Viewing the security tab for replays now shows all mods used for that run, not just the ones you have installed.
- Ankh will no longer try to load all replays at once and only load 4 for the current page.
- Fixed timer not showing up correctly in replay preview.
- Fixed seed showing up in security tab for ongoing unseeded runs.
Updated July 9th
- Fixed auto splits for Ante 12 not working past ante 8
Known issues
- Timer for
naneinfcategory stops after beating ante 8 without "Include time between runs" option enabled. This issue probably also affects ante 12 and Jimbo's Buffet categories. - Clicking "Back" in Ankh settings menu opens settings menu instead of pause menu.
- After completing ante 8 and going into endless you can see the current run's seed in replays (maybe seed should be completely hidden in that menu for all unseeded runs?).

Known Issues
Special thanks to DrDreaMO for helping discover most of these issues!
- Rerolling bosses via Director's Cut/Retcon is not tracked in replays.
- Replays are not sorted by date in the replay selection menu.
- Brainstorm reroll detection (probably) does not work with Brainstorm 2.0.0-alpha.
- The seed does not appear in the win screen during seeded runs.
- Save reloading can cause all items in the shop to disappear.
- Save reloading can cause the ordering of items in a pack to change, which Ankh does not account for.
- Viewing the security of other runs only shows the subset of mods that you also have installed.
- Cashouts are skipped in replays when using Talisman's Disable Animations
- Ankh contributes heavily to lag caused by saving large runs (which is the main cause of crashes for these sorts of runs)
- Selling a card in the cash out screen and buying the same card in the next shop won't create that same card in the shop.
