are you gonna update this mod to rep+ (and maybe rgon+)?

I loved this mod, I recently bought the game on steam and legally started playing it, but when I try to play with this character I don't get the cards to select the role... any help? :c:steamsad:

Heya dude, I made a video about your mod, go check them out! https://youtu.be/oSW_yTP1y9w?si=gTKyydQ9geK1leHU

Thanks. I have the unintrusive pause menu and it makes the sticky note clear, I think that might be messing it up.
HalvedDead 30 Nov, 2023 @ 2:22pm 
i wouldnt know about that, if youre saying that you cant see them at all then pressing the drop/swap key in the role selection menu should make them appear again, other than that it sounds like some sort of bug maybe, they should look like the standard sticky notes in the main character selection menu
Faustiana 30 Nov, 2023 @ 2:15pm 
Ah ok, thanks. That said it is kinda hard to see the completion marks. Any way to make them stand out more?
HalvedDead 22 Nov, 2023 @ 3:26am 
there is no hard mode marks, playing on hard mode is an optional kinda thing for the stranger, iirc it was made this way because the dev wanted to allow people to still get gold cards without playing hard mode if they didnt like it
Faustiana 22 Nov, 2023 @ 2:51am 
Does the built-in post-it not differentiate if you play on hard mode or easy like the normal post-it? I play Hard all the time, but now I'm worried I'll accidentally play on normal somehow...
HalvedDead 5 Oct, 2023 @ 2:28pm 
the only unlocks are the roles you are able to play when getting completion marks as certain other roles
Tony 2 Joints 5 Oct, 2023 @ 11:32am 
do some characters have unlocks?

ive never had that with this mod, far more likely to be an issue with horribly conflicting mods, or maybe you selected a stranger role, uninstalled the stranger mod, and then you couldnt access your save file because you had a saved run with a character that was no longer installed. there are a few bugs here and there with the character, but none that straight up nuke your file. the issue must have been caused by something else.

Be Careful! Do NOT restart AFTER choosing a Character UNLESS you want to Reinstall ALL of your mods AND your game!
Biopsyhozis 1 May, 2023 @ 8:43am 
Is it possible for the second player to choose a character?
Twin Galaxy 16 Feb, 2023 @ 10:21pm 
I really love the mod! Though one suggestion I have, while minor, is maybe adding a command that toggles the effects of freeroles on and off? Or unlocks everything and makes everything free? I like freeroles and just being able to pick who I want or just doing some random picks, but doing so on controller is just a tiny bit cumbersome having to go into the console every run.

Question for either the author of the mod or someone mkre techniclly adept with TBOI, why does Breath of Life not worl as a pocket active? It doesn't trigger any shield, parry, or damage,it just keeps flashing the character and nothing else
Kaethela 9 Feb, 2023 @ 5:28am 
@Shorty in what way? I use this mod and Mod Config Menu Pure without issue.
Shorty 8 Feb, 2023 @ 8:37pm 
just to let some people know if they are curious the mod is not compatible with the Mod Config Menu Pure
rukuparumieri 20 Jan, 2023 @ 10:36pm 
i've been holding off on modding the game too much past quality of life until i unlock mostly everything, but I couldn't help but install this one because it seems so cool. already enjoying it, but im hesitant to try the characters that start with items i dont have unlock. do those items still work if they aren't unlocked? im hesitant because i feel like it's cheating without doing the work to unlock them. which is ironic because i just spawned a cracked key to unlock tainted lazarus after using the one i got legitimately by accident in the room before i ascended to home
Shinneh 31 Dec, 2022 @ 4:13pm 
Favourite character mod by far, really good variety! If you do have the 'Animated Items' mod installed, then the choose your character part no longer works and doesn't appear - just a heads up!
potatoes 27 Dec, 2022 @ 1:45pm 
OMG thank you for the faster selection method!! So glad to have this mod working again. With some extra mods, I had 189 different roles and it was such a chore to get to some of them XD
Sinsthar  [author] 25 Dec, 2022 @ 7:48am 
I've added a way to advance in the card selection by 10 by pressing up or down. Also, keeping the buttons pressed down allows you to advance in the list of roles more quickly.
Sinsthar  [author] 25 Dec, 2022 @ 7:03am 
Since the last update, some mods cause problems with the visual rendering of other mods. My other mod, Nemesis, was one of them, and I fixed it.

Be Careful ! Don't use "R key" with this mod
Kaethela 15 Dec, 2022 @ 1:27am 
mod conflict
KhronicKyle 15 Dec, 2022 @ 12:19am 
wth happened to this mod? Zero roles show up and im forced to play the default stranger an with only half a red heart
The Grif Reaper 9 Dec, 2022 @ 4:19am 
yeah i can't pick any roles anymore since the update either. it just gives me the base with half a red heart
Capt.Cheese 9 Dec, 2022 @ 3:07am 
Since the update it dose not give me the select screen on either side of the post it note dose this happen to anyone else?
ShellShotty 7 Dec, 2022 @ 5:59pm 
Hey, it looks like an Isaac update may have broken The Stranger. When selecting any role it is crashing now:

I like these characters
Mono Romero 30 Oct, 2022 @ 5:56pm 
Hey, not to be a pain, but is it possible to implement some sort of search function into the mod at some point? If someone has quite a few stranger roles for Tainted Stranger, they may find it hard to find their favorites, since we currently can only scroll through them one at a time. Even a function to skip ahead 5 or 10 at a time would still be a great help. Maybe a favorites function?
Again, sorry to be a pain or sound like I'm demanding a lot, but I thought these were good ideas for the mod that I felt were worth suggesting.
Odmittens 28 Oct, 2022 @ 9:49pm 
Could you implement a way to see the completion marks for the role you're playing as? My memory is kinda bad and sometimes I forget what marks I don't have yet.
ShellShotty 24 Oct, 2022 @ 3:33pm 
Hey, would it be possible to add a feature to scroll through roles more quickly?

With many tainted roles, something like "press key/button to skip ahead 10 cards" would be a godsend. :isaac:

Also seconding a random role button. Having it so it simply scrolls to a random card rather than auto picking the role would solve any issues of not being able to afford it (or if you don't want to spend a lot of tokens) so you could just roll again.
cadetpirx 22 Oct, 2022 @ 9:38pm 
I was thinking of that there could be Tainted Stranger roles which items from Fiend Folio,Repentance Plus,or Tainted Treasure Rooms. Pretty fun idea,huh?
potatoes 5 Oct, 2022 @ 6:30pm 
I would love for a randomized role feature to be added. With the extended roles mod, there's like 180 choices and I have to go through them one by one every time :(
RealGreenQueen 28 Sep, 2022 @ 6:21pm 
Will this ever get updates so it works better with cosmetic items?
Revalopod 18 Sep, 2022 @ 8:02pm 
Going to the alt path and then later re-entering the main path seems to cause it too. Or maybe it's all a coincidence and it just hapoens randomly. I do not know but I hope you can work it out and fix it :good:
Revalopod 18 Sep, 2022 @ 5:05am 
One thing that always seems to cause boss tokens and completion marks to stop working is when exiting a run and then resuming it.
Revalopod 13 Sep, 2022 @ 9:11pm 
"Since the starting items are no longer random, and can be very powerful, the starting treasure room will not give you any additional items (a chest will appear instead)."
that's not really a downside considering you can just skip the first treasure room for a planetarium chance. Perhaps instead it should replace the item from the 1st entered treasure room, instead of the 1st floor treasure room?
Aegleseeker 4 Sep, 2022 @ 10:22pm 
idk why but i cant get completion mark 4 some role then i can't unlock new role
no error in log, what should i do 4 unlock last of them?
