Item ban list

so you can ban some cards with mom's ban list ?

I think that could actually be done with mom's ban list, it does allow you to set any entity type/variant/subtype

Would it be possible to make this but for cards? I'd like to ban Suicide King

it's just hard to help you if I have no idea what's happening on your end

can you check a couple things? it would really help narrow down the issue

first add an item and check that it is added to the list (by scrolling down to the bottom of the config menu below the Reset option) if it's not there then it's not properly updating the list

second open the save.dat file at Steam\steamapps\common\The Binding of Isaac Rebirth\data\itembanlist it should look something like 1:A>B.:C>D. and you should see the ID numbers of the items, if not then the mod isn't saving its data

then quit game and reload, continue the run, open the config menu and scroll to the bottom again, if the list is empty open the save file again, if the items don't appear in the config menu but are still in the save file then the data isn't being loaded, if the items were also missing from the save then something is causing the mod to think the save file is corrupt and its resetting itself

not at all, i mean i dont know if there might be "error" when i close the game but for me when i ban items and later on relaunch the game it doesnt save it
☢ Nato Potato ☢  [author] 25 Jan @ 1:46am 
you think it's not meant to save your data? it automatically saves any time you update anything in the config menu, just did a check and its saving just fine for me
are there any error messages in your debug console?
Nemu 24 Jan @ 11:48pm 
for instance i'm not complicated, just a way to save my list, awesome if there was some kind of guide
Nemu 24 Jan @ 11:47pm 
this mod make sense until you restart the game... i would like consistancy and not just repeat the process everytime i launch the game

if steam hasn't downloaded the update you can force it by deleting the mod (or by running the game with it unsubscribed and then resubscribing)
Tomandandy 14 Oct, 2022 @ 8:30am 
Quick question tho: How exactly can we disable the additional No! effect? I can't find the setting anywhere inside mod config menu.
Tomandandy 12 Oct, 2022 @ 9:40am 
Thanks for the update! :cozybethesda:
Tomandandy 20 Sep, 2022 @ 12:07pm 
I was wondering: Could we please get the option to disable the changes to the No! trinket via mod config menu? I love not having to worry about TmTrainer starts on my eden streaks anymore but the trinket change can be a bit too powerful in my opinion.
yams4lunch 11 Aug, 2022 @ 10:17am 
Is there a way to disable the changes to the "NO!' trinket? I want the ban list, but I'd rather not have "NO!" reroll existing items.
Shadow_J 28 Jul, 2022 @ 10:36pm 
Ah I was under the assumption the random command would randomly pick an item from every item in the game not the room's pool, many thanks.
☢ Nato Potato ☢  [author] 28 Jul, 2022 @ 6:02pm 
you can either go into the config menu and add a rule to replace that item with 'random', or you could press ~ to open the console and enter 'addtoitemlist ITEMID>0'
Shadow_J 28 Jul, 2022 @ 9:49am 
So for example let's say I liked a mod but one certain item I wanted removed, essentially I want everything in the mod except that one item. So when that item would appear replace it with an item corresponding to the rooms item pool, what would I add to the file? I'm confused how I would go about this. Thanks in advance.
☢ Nato Potato ☢  [author] 27 Jul, 2022 @ 5:11pm 
it depends on the item pool in question, when a random item is spawned the game checks for the current room type and picks a pool based on that, so if you're replacing a devil room item with a random item and you want the new item to be from the devil pool it should work fine

but say you were to have a beggar item being replaced by a random item and there was a beggar in a devil room, the item would not be replaced by an item from the beggar pool but rather the devil pool, so basically for room item pools just setting random is fine, but for other item pools you would need to set a specific list of items it can be replaced with
Shadow_J 27 Jul, 2022 @ 8:50am 
Is there a way to replace a item with another item from a corresponding pool? For example if I had a modded item that only spawned in the devil room that I wanted to be replaced, is there a way I could make it reroll into an item corresponding to the devil room item pool without explicitly listing each item in the pool? Or is there a way I could just prevent that item from spawning in the first place essentially removing it from that item pool?
Tomandandy 7 Mar, 2022 @ 11:28am 
Thank you so much! I had to unsubscribe and resubscribe to get the update working but now I can see the whole item list. Now I can finally streak in peace without worrying about a TmTrainer start, thanks a lot for this mod :resmile:
☢ Nato Potato ☢  [author] 6 Mar, 2022 @ 4:42pm 
double checked the code of both versions and that shouldn't happen, it starts with the last item in the game (mom's shovel if AB+ or mom's ring if REP) and checks each item id above that until it gets one with no item, my guess is something is messing with the REP check so its starting at shovel instead of ring and then getting stuck at item ID 587 which is an item that got removed

I'll add a check into the mod to account for 1 item gaps (as opposed to no more items left) hopefully that should fix it
Tomandandy 6 Mar, 2022 @ 11:20am 
Alright thanks for the heads up! I just tried configuring the mod using Mod Config Menu Pure but somehow I can only scroll through items as fas as the Stairway which is item ID 586. It doesn't let me go further even though there are items with higher IDs than that.
Is it possible that this only fulls works with Mod Config Menu - Continued and not with Mod Config Menu Pure?
☢ Nato Potato ☢  [author] 6 Mar, 2022 @ 12:20am 
yeah, technically you could still start with a banned item but soon as the game starts running the mod should replace it with something else
Tomandandy 5 Mar, 2022 @ 5:51am 
Would this also prevent you from starting with banned items as Eden? Because I would love to ban TMTrainer from Eden starts and be able to pick up Eden's Blessing again too.
☢ Nato Potato ☢  [author] 26 Jan, 2022 @ 12:00am 
have you tried using the console? Im curious if that also loses your settings or if its just the config mod

AB+ save files are just in the mods folder, which is in 'Documents\my games\Binding of Isaac Afterbirth+ Mods' , with Repentance theyre in 'Steam\steamapps\common\The Binding of Isaac Rebirth\data'
Floofy 25 Jan, 2022 @ 7:30pm 
where can I find the savefile to edit it, since doing it with the mod manager seems to reset the list every time I close the game :(
silver lining 7 Dec, 2021 @ 5:49am 
that will be really nice!
i didn't have to use another mod then XD.
☢ Nato Potato ☢  [author] 7 Dec, 2021 @ 3:44am 
ah good catch, that mod gives the items to your inventory temporarily (if set) so if banned they'll get rerolled, will have to add a check for that in the other mod
silver lining 6 Dec, 2021 @ 6:49pm 
1. use this mod:https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2367775462
2. ban goat head and/or duality.
3. kill a boss.
you will get a dozen of items. weird bug.
Koroa 4 Dec, 2021 @ 1:17am 
Gotcha, thanks :)
☢ Nato Potato ☢  [author] 4 Dec, 2021 @ 12:21am 
If it is set to random then it will set the items id to 0, which causes the game itself to pick a new item id based on the room, so it should respect item pools but might be a little weird for stuff that isnt room specific like begger item drops
Koroa 3 Dec, 2021 @ 10:56pm 
If i want to replace X item with something else, is it possible to have one randomly selected from its pool? Or does the random replacement do that already?
silver lining 20 Nov, 2021 @ 9:31pm 
Taro, you can use command to add item.
addtoitemlist x>0
x means item's id.
0 means replace with any item, not specific.
☢ Nato Potato ☢  [author] 20 Nov, 2021 @ 12:22am 
you aren't able to add repentance items to the list? that shouldn't be happening, especially since there's no limit on which items you can have, the mod literally just checks through every item ID counting up by 1 until it reaches a number that has no item assigned to it (to account for modded items) so even if the mod can't tell that repentance is installed it should still find the repentance items

any error messages in the console? (press ~)
taro 19 Nov, 2021 @ 7:37pm 
so you can't add any of repentance's items to the black list... is there a specific reason for that? i edited the saved data and it seemed to reroll them just fine after reloading
Dingus 16 Nov, 2021 @ 8:13pm 
Odd. Maybe it's just an EID thing? With the past newest update it seems like other random mods will break certain things in it. Guess it just happened to be this one on my end. Sorry for the trouble!
☢ Nato Potato ☢  [author] 16 Nov, 2021 @ 6:48pm 
uhh, what? this mod doesn't interact with EID at all, or curses, and with the pedestals it just changes their subtype, just to be safe i double checked and nothing, didnt even reveal hidden items that got rerolled, i don't know what's up with your game but i'm pretty certain it's not this
Dingus 16 Nov, 2021 @ 11:02am 
Please be advised: This mod currently stops quality badges from showing up in the external item description mod, and also reveals items that should be hidden by curse of the blind.
DigitalMocking 10 Oct, 2021 @ 6:27am 
The item list goes up to 568 I think, but there are items that are in the 700s, how do we cover those?
☢ Nato Potato ☢  [author] 9 Oct, 2021 @ 12:26am 
yeah unfortunately when adding/removing mods with items the ID numbers for some modded items may change, if they're in the ban list the list will need to be checked and might need updating
Helmschrot 8 Oct, 2021 @ 10:10am 
Short question: if i install a new items mod, all Ids get mixed up. Is that a problem?
Revalopod 3 Jul, 2021 @ 3:46am 
hooray my happiness has elevated
☢ Nato Potato ☢  [author] 3 Jul, 2021 @ 2:54am 
only issue I could find was it freaking out with 'fake' items like you get from lemegeddon, that should be fixed now
Revalopod 30 May, 2021 @ 3:28pm 
I'm eagerly anticipating this mod
I want it a lot !
Chambz 24 May, 2021 @ 9:16am 
I *think* this mod has been bugging out my game (Repentance). The only other mods I have are cosmetic. When entering a room, sometimes the game freaks out and gives me tons of items. Seems rare but ruins the run.
☢ Nato Potato ☢  [author] 16 May, 2021 @ 10:29pm 
will be checking and updating this with repentance but I have work and a lot of mods to get through so it will take some time
Daracadeking 16 May, 2021 @ 8:37pm 
currently it works but ... its bugging with items tht give u random effects like lemegedon or metronome
Daracadeking 15 May, 2021 @ 11:12am 
plz update this mod!! this is the best mod everrr!!!
potato sann
Revalopod 15 May, 2021 @ 9:16am 
repentance compatible?
bhse1995 20 Dec, 2020 @ 3:05pm 
Tearorgrace was just mentioning wanting something like this in repentance.
