It didn't work for me until I subscribed to both this version and natopotato's original mod.
Seems to work fine for me so far.

This mod is kinda buggy. Like when I try to find one item and go to it, all the effects from the items that i scroll over happen at the same time. And when I exit out of the menu There's a lot on the screen and it crashes because of all of the items happening at the same time

is there a way you can make an option where the costumes for the starting items dont appear

Sorry about that, I *think* I've identified the problem... most likely it's No More Breakfasting!, which hasn't been updated in a while and apparently has been rerolling other items too. I also run Crap B Gone (quality 2), so I guess I'll just go ahead and disable both of them while I'm at it. Thanks again and appreciate the quick response.

@Fuligin I tried testing those issues really quickly and was unable to replicate any of them.

About the issue of a new Spindown Dice appearing somehow... Well, my best guess is that this was a conflict with a different mod.

As for the issue of the Void on Angel Room... Bear in mind that the game still counts Downpour/Dross I as Floor 1, so if you somehow got an Angel Room in that floor, then this might be the issue... Otherwise, I'd also guess it's a mod conflict issue.

No clue about the issues with Ascent, so I also assume it's a mod conflict issue.

Sorry for not being able to help any more than that, but I really have no clue about what could have caused the issues.

Really weird interaction with Spindown Dice as a starting item (on Eden, but doubt this is character-specific) where it kept on spawning the spindown item and a copy of Spindown Dice with full charge and I ended up filling a whole room full of items because it would spawn the next item instead of changing it on the pedestal. It also seems to force Spindown Dice as an active even on floors that aren't the 1st because I would spindown to Void in an Angel Room but be unable to pick it up.

During the Ascent sequence Spindown Dice also gets removed from your inventory onto a pedestal each time you activate it. I didn't have Butter fwiw, and it wasn't spawned from a spindown attempt--ID was too low for that.

@Metal-Overlord Yeah, I think I didn't add anything that allowed you to enable/disable custom items for all characters in one go.

I think you can just disable/enable the mod if you want to do that though. Not as convenient as the way that Natopotato did it, but it should work.

It probably wouldn't be too hard to add this function in all honesty, but I kept on promising other people to do things to my other mods and have yet to do it because I haven't touched Isaac in over a month, so like... Well, don't expect any changes for the foreseeable future.

Am i wrong or there is no option to abilitate customs tarting items for all characters with a single option?
To do that i have to set custom starting items on for every single character every time i want to enable or disable this mod, and for more than 20 character it's a bit tedious to do every time.
The AB+ version had a general on/off flag to enable/disable all characters all at once.

Also, to avoid future problems like this, I'd recommend keeping the character's settings as OFF while you choose what item you want to give them, and only change it to ON once you finish selecting everything.

... And on that note, I think I know what the issue might be. I think this is probably because Strawman creates a second character... I think it might leave your inventory once the second character is created, so the mod instantly tries giving you another copy of Strawman since you have none with you right now.

... Is there any other item that creates a second character? I remember there are some Souls that do it, but I'm unsure about characters... If there is another item with this function, could you do me a favor and try testing it to see if this issue also occurs with the other item? It'll make it easier for me to troubleshoot in that case.

@Gregr Will try checking this issue as soon as I can. I'm kinda busy with work, so it's being hard for me to update my mods though.

As for getting rid of Strawman, do the following:

Go to Steam\steamapps\common\The Binding of Isaac Rebirth\data\custom starting items [rep]

There should be a save1.dat file there. Open it with a notepad.

Use ctrl + F to search for 667, which is the ID of strawman.

Delete the 667 and put a 0 in its place.

This should fix the issue for now. I dunno why it's happening, but I'll try replicating it and seeing what I can do to fix it.

if you select strawman; it starts instantly spawning infinite strawmen... i can't even access the mod menu fast enough to change it before the game crashes....how can i reset the mod data so that i can use it fresh again?
AliceShiki's Alt Acc  [author] 11 Nov, 2021 @ 5:30am 
@Shortest Oh, wow, this seems weird... I'll try looking over it this weekend and see if I can fix it, but in all honesty, I dunno if I can.
Shortest 11 Nov, 2021 @ 5:28am 
@AliceShiki's Alt Acc Its like #THE_SAD_ONION_NAME and #SWALLOWED_PENNY_NAME or so. Mod still does it's job, just names are broken.
AliceShiki's Alt Acc  [author] 11 Nov, 2021 @ 5:24am 
@Shortest Can you tell me what the weird names mean? I didn't play the game in the last 3 weeks or so, so I dunno what you mean... I'll probably only touch the post-update game this weekend.

Oh, do you mean stuff like Tainted Lazarus dead form having a name like TDLazarus? That's just because I needed to make the name fit into the default space of the Mod Config Menu, so I couldn't write the name out entirely.
Shortest 11 Nov, 2021 @ 5:21am 
Still works fine after new update, but their names are kinda weird. Great mod tho

Bless you for this honestly. I've been trying to unlock the marbles for so long lmao
Molten Sh4dow 17 Sep, 2021 @ 2:34pm 
oh dang, i didn't know that. thanks for responding, hopefully range will be fixed for everyone in the future
AliceShiki's Alt Acc  [author] 17 Sep, 2021 @ 2:31pm 
@Molten Sh4dow AFAIK, the Range API is currently bugged, so it's not really something I can fix.

In all honestly I didn't really try making anything that affected Range, so I'm not 100% sure on this, but at least that's what I heard from comments on reddit.

I think that the devs were planning on eventually updating the REP API (who knows when that will happen though), so I think this should be solved in due time.
Molten Sh4dow 17 Sep, 2021 @ 2:10pm 
Do you think you could make a repentance port of NatoPotato's custom starting stats mod? It doesnt seem to work with changing range anymore
